"Sure enough...... Can't it be like in the anime......"

The feeling of a boulder pressing on his body made Ninety-Nine's body unable to move, and the feeling of suffocation seemed to stop even his heart. It's like drowning in the deep sea......

Pseudo-Lori's expression froze, and her eyes gradually emptied. After being stunned for 2 seconds, the light slowly fell out of focus, and Ninety-Nine's eyes left Anna. And at the same time, he actually grinned.

The corners of his mouth were barely raised......

And at this moment when he forced his face, tears burst instantly.

The crimson orb was covered with tears......

The feeling of losing everything for a moment struck again. (When did you ...... Think Anna is so important...... ）

The strength of the whole body was lost all at once, and an incomparably empty feeling, a feeling of helplessness, a feeling of loneliness, filled every cell in the body.

And with that, there is a strong, irrepressible, impulse to die.

Ninety-nine's body floating in the air slowly relinquished control of the high-level flying magic, and as if out of gravity, his body slowly floated backwards, like a fallen leaf placed in the universe.

In the moment of floating, red, black, and white render everything.

Underneath the gold, it shines with an ice color and shines in the center of the ice blue. Immediately, Ninety-Nine fell into it.

Ninety-Nine sent himself back to the forest on the east side of Coswall.

Scarlet earth, snow-white and dazzling trees, dark sky. After the stop-and-go is lifted, the original color is restored in an instant.

Ninety-nine lay motionless on the thick snow.

The red cloak was over the snow, the hood was slipping off, and the silver-haired girl still kept her tearful smile on her face, looking at the slightly dim dark blue sky that had just entered the early morning.

Tears flowed in large streams, and when they crossed their cheeks and sideburns, they immediately condensed into ice crystals.

The solidified place was a little painful, but for Ninety-Nine at the moment, it was just some innocuous caresses.

He just lay quietly.

Wait for the tears to run out, or for the tear ducts to freeze.

The wind in his ears blew from time to time, and the snow on the trees and the ground was like a veil, slowly covering Ninety-Nine's body.

Then it was blown away by the wind.

Ninety-nine, who lost his soul, looked at the sky godlessly. His pale cheeks were covered with ice crystals from tears, and even his silver hair stood a little.

……

After Anna finished her third sentence, she looked at the snow in her hand and magically identified the snow.

I didn't feel any magic from those small holes, just small holes formed by simple water droplets.

"It's water, but are they really tears? Well...... Maybe it's a water elf, I heard that some water elves are born with hair made of water, and they will drip wherever they go. ”

As she was thinking, Anna felt the stranger suddenly disappear, her eyes lit up, but she quickly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tsk, (that's fast)...... Sure enough, it's not an ordinary person, so let's talk to Qiaolu later. The corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she looked a little proud. I didn't realize that the person I was 'pushing' away was the person I once loved the most.

After all, to Anna, that 'little girl' was just an 'assassin of a rank above herself' who came to Huaying City. It's a blessing to be able to let them go without doing anything. That's why she looks a little proud.

Rushing to fight with a high-level race is tantamount to asking for your own death.

Thinking about it, Anna slowly flew up, dropped the lump of snow on the ground, and flew to prepare to go back.

And on the ground where Ninety-Nine stayed just now, there were a few small snow caves made of tears......

[Back to Ninety-Nine]

From going to Huaying City just now, to now, the time is only 20 minutes. But in this short 20 minutes, Ninety-Nine's mood was like a roller coaster, with ups and downs, and finally slid to the bottom.

Because he accompanied Li Mo to escort the girls who were snatched away by the demon home yesterday, he was very reluctant to see scene after scene, the scene of family reunion.

Although Ninety-Nine didn't want to look at it, he always looked away, but Li Mo on the side introduced it to the family when he arrived: "This is the new adventurer of the Tieying Guild: Ninety-Nine. She was the one who helped save your daughter. ’

The act of introducing it once at home, so that those parents or other family members repeatedly thank Ninety-Nine.

In the face of other people's thanks, Ninety-Nine naturally couldn't ignore them, and could only say a few words politely, 'It's okay, it's good for you to reunite.' ’

So, Li Mo introduced all the way, and Ninety-Nine also watched all the way.

Ninety-nine, who originally wanted a partner (written as 'family'), became very empty in his heart along the way.

But after returning to the guild, in the warm atmosphere of those adventurers, he forgot a little.

And forgetting is only temporary......

In the six months that he was in Huaying City, Ninety-Nine had long regarded Anna as family. So after seeing the scene of the girls reuniting with their families, how could he suppress the thoughts in his heart.

So today, he couldn't wait to return to Huaying City.

However...... Facts are facts, and to be forgotten is to be forgotten. Even if he came with anticipation, only disappointment and pain awaited him after all.

Ninety-nine lay quietly in the snow, waiting quietly until the tears dried up......

Ten minutes later, Ninety-Nine sat up from the snow, snow sticking to his body and falling one after another. "6 o'clock...... 43 bars......"

He stretched his arms forward, crossed his fingers, and pulled them back, followed by a deep breath, then withdrew his hand and patted his face. The streams of tears that formed crystal vines on his face were shattered.

Ninety-nine took out his pocket watch, looked at the time, it was exactly 6:43, and put away the pocket watch.

He floated slightly, floating in the air, the corners of his mouth trying to hook up, but the corners of his mouth only lasted for 0.5 seconds before retracting.

So Ninety-Nine hooked the corners of his mouth for the second time, but failed again. After repeating this a few times, he finally regained his most standard cute appearance.

So the little Lori with an innocent smile got up and flew in the direction of the door.

……

[T 然appeared の interjection: 2]

[Specific time: Just after Ninety-Nine promised the city lord to stay for lunch, and the city lord left the study. 】

- Go get busy, Lord Castle.

- Haha. Chud, please.

With the sound of the door of the study closing, the city lord Li Wenzheng and Li Mo left the study.

There was a maid standing outside the door, Li Wenzheng raised his hand, pointed at the maid with his index finger, and then looked into the door, then looked at the maid, and nodded down with his finger, signaling her to stay here and watch.
