Chapter 256: We Are Family
In a small room of the inn, Belen was lying on the bed, recalling what the hostess had said, and finally shook his head.
Recently, I've been a little sensitive to the "natural disaster" organization where the core members are all witches.,So when I see a shrine maiden, I think of "natural disaster.ć
That's right, the proprietress of this inn is a shrine maiden.
Shrine maidens are naturally blessed by magic, so the magic in the air will be very close to them, and this is also the point of revealing their identity, but the only people who can detect this are extremely sensitive to magic.
Now that the existence of the "natural disaster" has been unmasked in person, the fact that the core of this organization is a shrine maiden must also be known to everyone.
That day in the Lepp Chase School Park.,But there were many, many witches.,It's estimated that they secretly accepted the call to join the "natural disaster" organization.ć
However, after seeing Elmin, Belen realized that not all witches will go to the "natural disaster", and there are also witches like Emin who live and work in peace.
The reason why the shrine maiden is hostile to most people is still in the great battle with the Holy See hundreds of years ago, and how it was caused, Belen does not know.
But in fact, not everyone is hostile to the witch race, after all, they are almost the same as the human race.
No one can determine the definition of good and evil, and the distinction between good and evil is always subjective and not objective.
A pretty figure suddenly appeared in Belen's mind, and the light in his eyes gradually lost focus, as if he remembered a lot of things.
I don't know how she's doing, but with her temperament, she definitely won't join the "natural disaster".
Da-da-da.
"Big brother, can I come in?"
There was a knock on the door and Illya's voice was heard.
After hearing Latil's voice, Belen also got up from the bed, then walked to the door and opened it, and was greeted by a little silver-haired girl in a nightdress.
"Illya? Ah, come in first. ā
Belen looked at the door and saw that there was no one else, and was a little puzzled, but he invited Illya into the room first, and Illya sat on the edge of the bed.
Illya was keeping her head down, as if hesitating to say something.
And Belen also looked at Illya very suspiciously, not understanding what the kid was going to say when he was looking for himself at night, was he hungry?
"Illya, it's so late, is there something to do with me?"
"Big brother, Iā" Illya pursed her lips, her eyes a little complicated, and finally, she mustered up the courage to say, "Am I dragging you down?" ā
Hearing Illya's words, Belen was stunned, and then realized what Illya was struggling with, and in an instant, his face gradually softened, with a hint of a smile.
"What do you think?"
Belen reached out and pinched Illya's soft face, and he said, "There's no need to care so much, we are a family, how can things between a family be called dragging?" ā
"But, but I want to help you, big brothers, but as soon as I help, the big brothers will run away with me, such a day..."
"It's okay!"
Belen interrupted Illya, and Illya also looked at him, Belen pulled a stool and sat down, he sat in front of Illya, and the smile on the corner of his mouth naturally appeared.
"At the beginning, we all made the firmest choice, what kind of mood do you think everyone decided to save you, if you regret it now, then how stupid we are!"
"Whether it's the 'witch' in everyone's mouth or the princess of the dead country, from the time you decided to go with us, you were just Illya, and if you want to catch our family, you have to pass us first."
As she spoke, Belen took the silver-haired girl into her arms and gently patted her on the back, trying her best to convey her thoughts to Illya.
"It turns out that the big brother knows..."
When she heard Belen's mention of the "princess of the dead country", Illya's body also trembled slightly, she was a little nervous and a little scared.
"I don't know, but I'll believe what Illya said to me." Belen parted from Illya, then placed his hand on the latter's head and stroked it.
Sigmar, the princess of the fallen kingdom of Iro.
Now that he has been confirmed, Belen can't help but sigh in his heart, from the princess of a country to a fugitive, how many things do you have to go through?
He knew that Illya had lost her memory, and she should have come to Florentiis during the period of amnesia, which was really a long journey.
"Big brother, I'm not a good boy anymore, I... I had killed, many, many people, at the time of Iro. Illya looked down at her hands, and could faintly see them washed in blood.
Belen could see that Illya was trembling, and the subtle trembling arc made him feel a little distressed, he had once received the civil war in the Kingdom of Elo from Verne, and countless people had died, and in between, how much did Illya have in his hands?
"I, I've killed a lot of people."
Belen's smile was a little bitter, but even so, he smiled, because it wasn't something to run away from, and time had gone.
Hearing this, Illya also raised her head and looked at Belen, this boy who was very gentle and ordinary in her eyes, had he also killed many people?
"Don't look at me like this, I'm actually amazing."
Thinking that it was Illya's skeptical gaze, Belen also responded bitterly.
"I know big brother is very good."
I've been finding out that this big brother is a little extraordinary, but until the last time in Lepp Chase School Park, when the man in front of her wanted to fight against the magic that she wasn't even sure of, she knew that this big brother who looked ordinary was actually not ordinary at all.
She's young, but she's not stupid.
Belen put his index finger in front of his mouth and said cautiously: "I can't tell them about this, they don't know, my goal is to be a competent head of the family." ā
"Yes, I see."
A shallow smile appeared on Illya's immature but very beautiful little face.
It seemed that it was the reason for mutual confession, Belen was also a lot more relaxed, he rubbed the little silver-haired girl's head again, and a gentle voice came into Illya's ears.
"Illya feels that it has dragged us down, but in fact, Illya has really protected everyone, we are a family, and we are not allowed to say anything about dragging us down or not!"
Illya blinked, then smiled and nodded.
"I see!"
