Chapter 132: The Storm is Coming
After a tantrum, Chelsea finally quieted down, but still didn't give Javier a good look, and snorted angrily and turned her face away from speaking.
Looking at the delicate appearance of her slightly bulging cheeks, Javier's heart suddenly moved, and he felt the urge to poke it with his fingers, but as soon as this idea arose, he snuffed it out in his heart.
At this time, Chelsea is like a grumpy kitten, in danger of blowing up at any time, so it's better not to die casually.
So Javier drank silently without speaking, looking at the night sky and distracted, Chelsea did not speak, turned his head and sulked, and silence spread between the two.
At one point, Chelsea was the first to speak: "You really decided to do that?" ”
"What?" Javier's eyes lifted slightly.
"Are you really going to kill Estes?" Chelsea said.
"I don't have any other choice, do I?" Javier whispered.
"There are a lot of options, it's just that you're giving up other possibilities!"
"Heh, you're really hitting the nail on the head." Javier glanced at Chelsea, "You don't have any contact with Estes, right?" Why do you listen to you as if you don't want me to kill her? ”
"Aren't you the one who really doesn't want to kill Estes?"
Chelsea stared into Javier's eyes, as if she had seen through his heart.
Javier was silent for a few seconds, then sighed and said, "As I said, Estes is a woman with dangerous thoughts, and she vows that she will not be able to coexist with the Empire, so I must ...... no matter what."
"Less verbose!" Chelsea suddenly raised her voice, "You've always been like this, almost demanding of your every word and deed, making yourself like an emotionless machine, and you don't hesitate to do this, but you also want to put the empire in the highest priority...... But I'm asking you what you think, stupid! If you want to kill the person you like with your own hands, can you really accept this kind of ending easily? ”
“……”
Javier was silent, he picked up the wine bottle and poured a large gulp, the irritating liquid flowed down his throat and into his stomach, like a knife, but his face did not change at all, just looked up at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes were silent.
"What if you don't accept it?"
He whispered, and the indifferent mask seemed to have a crack, revealing a bit of helplessness and hesitation.
"If you can't accept it, change it!" "You've done enough for this country," Chelsea exclaimed, "and it's okay to think about yourself once in a while, right?" You can be willful, you have the right! ”
Javier shook his head: "You are telling me to show favoritism." You know, there will be two of these things, and after breaking a certain principle, it will be very difficult to turn back......"
"It's not a good thing for you to change things." Chelsea pursed her lips, "Look at the way you look now, the word physical and mental exhaustion is written on your face, I really don't know how you have persevered...... Besides, don't you have a lot of favoritism? Don't want to deny it, whether it's Lan's matter or Will's matter, I see your efforts in the open and in the dark. ”
The girl sighed, looking at Javier's expression full of complexity, and there was a hint of imperceptible distress.
"It's really an awkward guy, obviously he has been constantly responding to the expectations of others, but when it's his turn, he has come up with some rules and regulations and overwhelmed himself with heavy shackles...... You are so great, it is not enough to describe you with a good person, how about calling you a saint? ”
"I seem to hear irony, is it my delusion?" Javier smiled wryly.
"It's not a delusion, it's a sarcasm for you!" Chelsea snorted.
"Well, I accept your sarcasm." Javier shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, "You're right, I really should think more about myself...... I'm human after all, and I can't kill my feelings like a machine, it's too difficult. ”
As a soldier, Javier values the protection of the empire more than anything else, and his years of self-suggestion have almost made this idea instinctive.
Everything is important to the country, regardless of emotion, at the expense of his life, he has been educated by his father since he was a child, and he firmly believes that what he is doing is the right thing.
But after going through so much, making so many choices, and giving up so much, even he finally felt a little tired.
This exhaustion rose from within, and the conflict with reason in his heart troubled him and made him miserable.
So after listening to Chelsea's words, he suddenly didn't want to care so much, and decided to throw away some of the things that had always bound him, and then follow his own heart, like Estes, and do something presumptuously.
Seeing the haze between Javier's eyebrows gradually dissipating, Chelsea also smiled: "Well, your expression is very good now, that's the way it is...... Although people can't live completely according to their own desires, they don't need to be overly restrained, and the way you used to live is like self-abuse, which makes everyone who sees it feel worried. ”
"It's too much, it feels like I've completely denied my previous life."
Javier sighed, but the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, as if to remove some knot.
"I'm just telling the truth, do you have any objections?" Chelsea raised an eyebrow.
"Nope." Javier shook his head, "But even if I give up on the idea of killing Estes, it's only one-sided, and the fundamental problem still hasn't been solved, right?" Do you have any other suggestions? ”
"Uh...... This ......"
Chelsea scratched her cheeks, racking her brains and couldn't think of a way to convince that Estes, so she could only look at him left and right: "It's just a little difficulty, you can overcome the past with perseverance!" ”
Well, to say it is to say it, waste.
Javier pouted: "What, can you only play tricks?" It's useless. ”
"Goo! What kind of attitude do you have, Huoda! ”
Chelsea clenched her fists angrily, her mouth pursed in dissatisfaction, because she saw Javier's depressed look, she came to comfort him, it was really kind and not reciprocated, hum!
Seeing that Chelsea wanted to pounce on her and fight with her, but was afraid of the disparity in combat power and hesitated, Javier couldn't help but chuckle, and then as if he had turned on some switch, a series of hearty laughter echoed in the night sky, endlessly.
"What's so funny! Hey, you're still laughing, aren't you? ”
Chelsea was so anxious that her face was flushed and her teeth were bared, like a fried cat.
"Ah, I'm sorry, I couldn't hold back for a while."
Javier waved his hand, then smiled at Chelsea, a smile that did not have the grim impression he had always given people, but had a very mild feeling.
"Thank you, worry so much about me."
"Who's worried about you! Less self-inflicted and more amorous! Chelsea stammered.
"It's better to think of it as if I was self-inflicted, anyway, I still want to thank you, thanks to you, I feel much better now." Javier said sincerely.
“…… Well, I see. ”
Chelsea turned her head away a little unfrankly, and the red on her jade neck crept up, and she fell silent.
And Javier looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, his mood at this time had changed too much compared to before, the whole person was much more relaxed, and he secretly made up his mind a certain decision.
The storm is coming, and it's time for all of this to come to an end.
