"Obviously, he avoided me every time I wanted to succeed, but this time he took the initiative, this was his first kiss...... That's it...... Wow, I'm so pathetic. ”

Beatrice looked helplessly at Wakaba with a pitiful face, hesitated for a moment, she put her hand on Wakaba's head and rubbed it, the smooth long black hair and Parker's hair were not compatible, unconsciously touched for a long time, after reacting, she looked at Wakaba, who looked even more pitiful, coughed dryly, and said with a serious face

"Yes, scum like him will be punished!"

"Woo, is anyone finally pitiful of me? However, do you want to punish Kaede? What do you use? ”

"How's it about frying?"

Wakaba let go of Beatrice's calf and tugged at the corners of her mouth

"Huh...... I don't think it's that serious, right? ”

"Oh, so do you have any good ideas?"

"It's okay, in order to prevent Kaede from betraying me, I decided to research a ninjutsu, uh... Magic! I just finished reading almost all the books. ”

Wakaba stood up and straightened her clothes and took a step forward, but there was a power coming from the hem of her clothes, and she turned around in confusion, only to see Beatrice staring at her in disbelief.

Then Beatrice's whole body trembled, she put Parker aside, this cat has been caught in Wakaba's illusion since just now, maybe he can still get some clues that he has fallen into the illusion by exploring the surface emotions of the creature, but even so, he still has difficulty cracking this illusion, not because of anything else, it is the result of the difference in the laws of the two worlds.

Beatrice hung her hand over her chest, lowered her head and lost sight of her expression, and then, as determined, she reached into her garment and took out a book from it, without a title, just a symbol of a book.

She didn't pay attention to Wakaba's gaze, and opened the book directly, but only turned one page and stopped, and Wakaba also saw the other pages through the gap when Beatrice opened it, although the small gap was very dark, and it might make the words in it difficult to read, but this was just a simple thing for Wakaba, she was reading like this just now, no... Or that a collection of books is more appropriate.

Wakaba looked through the cracks and saw that the other pages of the book were all blank sheets, as if waiting for someone's interpretation, which was unsettling.

After seeing the first page, Beatrice's whole body trembled uncontrollably, and she raised her head violently, with emotion in her eyes, and Wakaba, who knew emotions very well, and could also interfere with them, this kind of emotion was extremely familiar.

For the first time, her turquoise eyes brought light and hope, and she suppressed the tremor in her heart and asked word by word

"Be-Ty-come-ask-you, you-of-name-word!"

In the book, the page that Beatrice opened was full of words that Wakaba couldn't read, and she couldn't have learned anything from it, but was it really that a name was so important?

She asked softly

"Important?"

Beatrice replied

"It's important, there's nothing more important to Betty, not even if the world ends."

If Ye knows, this question is like a valve port, as long as he answers, then the girl in front of him will be instantly ignited by the emotions that have been suppressed for four hundred years, if it is correct, it is fine, if it is not, then maybe her last reason will be destroyed by emotions.

Wakaba was silent, and this hesitant look was seen by Beatrice, and she spoke softly

"Betty needs an answer, no matter what the outcome is."

"What about me......"

“……”

"It's called Kurama..."

The moment the last name appeared, Beatrice leaked a disappointed look, but the next moment her answer made her eyes widen

"Wakaba, whether it was before or now, or in the future, I'm only called Wakaba, and as for that boring surname, it's just someone else imposing on me, I haven't agreed yet. So... My name is only Wakaba. ”

“……”

Looking at Beatrice, who had changed her mood, the stone in Wakaba's heart couldn't help but fall to the ground, and she smiled at Beatrice and said

"Ah, I'm sorry, no, maybe I'm lucky, I just got it right."

Beatrice was silent, lowered her head and stood up from the stool, walked up to Wakaba's side, wrapped her hands around her body, she was only as tall as Wakaba's chest, so she just happened to be able to bury her head in her chest, with crying, with grief, Beatrice's voice was staccato like this

"Why... Why are you here now!? ”

Wakaba gently placed her hand on the back of her head and spoke softly

"I'm sorry I was late and kept you waiting so long."

No matter what the outcome is, that question is a valve that will definitely ignite the elven girl's emotions, maybe Wakaba can suppress it, but the accumulated things will one day directly destroy the girl in her chest.

So, the best solution now is to let it go.

"Now, now, are you like using this apology to wipe out Betty's 400 years? Betty has been waiting, she has been uncomfortable, she has been waiting for you to appear. ”

“……”

"You know what? Every time Betty was expecting you to knock on the door, but the person who opened the door always disappointed Betty, and time and time again, this scene played out for four hundred years. ”

There was no reason for these complaints at all, because Wakaba didn't come here at all four hundred years ago, maybe she might not have been born yet, but Wakaba still nodded lightly in acknowledgement

"Yes, it's Wakaba's badness that disappointed you."

The suppressed emotions erupted directly like a waterfall, which was originally an inexplicable matter, if Betty was waiting for "that person" was not Wakaba, then the girl would definitely be out of control, because the long and incomparable time had long since erased the last trace of expectation in the girl's heart, and now she is just to complete the contract and complete the mission given to her by her mother, however, Wakaba is like the best craftsman.

Slowly, Beatrice's constant narration and complaining words changed, and little by little they moved in the unknown direction.

**The space of the library has been echoing with Beatrice's words, as if she were to speak all the things she felt that had been suppressed for four hundred years, without interruption.

Despite the lack of a clue and no reason for the words, Wakaba nodded his head from time to time to apologize or respond a few words.

Parker the cat twisted in Beatrice's arms, opened his squinted eyes, looked thoughtfully at the empty place, and looked up at Beatrice

"Betty, do you feel a little strange?"
