Chapter 19: Love in the Eyes of a Girl
"Don't be cranky, how can you be a monster?" Finn didn't think much of it at all, and immediately answered Lilith's question, "You're normal, you've just lost some memories compared to a complete person." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"Are you a monster, Finn?" Lilith thought for a moment and asked again.
"Of course I'm not."
He shrugged his shoulders and said this, thinking that you and I were not just two monsters in the eyes of the fanatics of the church, but also witches and heretics, and if caught, they would be sent to a nearby religious court to be sentenced to death, and then burned at the stake.
After listening to Finn's answer, Lilith nodded, confirming that she and Finn were fortunately not monsters, and inadvertently let go of a small burden in her heart.
After this chat with Finn, Lilith felt that she knew a lot more, but for now there was one last question that she really wanted to know the answer to had not been asked to Finn.
So, she spent about half a minute memorizing and digesting the meaning of the words that Finn had told herself when he returned to his room after dinner, such as "like," "love," "sleep together," and "live together."
"So, Finn, one last question." The black-haired warlock girl raised her hands, gently picked up the fat owl on top of her head and put it in front of her abdomen, and her dark eyes fell quietly in the eyes of the holy warrior youth, "Do you love me?" β
As the girl's naturally somewhat ethereal voice fell lightly, the young paladin sat in front of her and was stunned.
And then--
"Poof!"
"Finn?"
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
"Finn, are you alright?"
"It's okay, choking on saliva... Ahem......"
Fein pursed his lips, raised his hand and slapped his chest, and after a while, he felt that the breath in his throat finally did not carry water, and then he half-opened his mouth and looked at Lilith with a blank expression that he didn't know what to say, and then his brain continued to freeze for a few seconds before he remembered to ask her, "Why did you suddenly ask this?" β
"Because I want to know if you love me." Lilith's missing logical structure prompted her to answer Finn with such a nonsense.
If it weren't for the fact that this three-no-girl girl with a few strings in her head was like this, Finn would definitely think that the other party was making fun of herself.
Just like in the old days when it was still in Edventle.
He still remembered that at the beginning of the guild, Oryant and he knew a female bard player named Merial, and that the over-energetic poet lady used to like to flirt with herself when she was still a stunned young man, and the next day she was short of a sentence such as "Na Na Fein, did you know that there are two seductive apples called romance and love?" "Oh, congratulations to Your Excellency the Knight on your success, but then again, who do you think you care about more than us, Your Royal Highness the Princess of the Violet Kingdom?" "Salute for the birth of the new Grand Master of the Mithril Knights, Boom! Then, Mr. Commander, do you still lack a little fiancΓ©e who is willing to accompany you to the end of the world? -- Something like that.
The poet lady of the past and present was like a living little devil in Finn's past memories, and when Finn thought of her, he realized that there seemed to be basically no time when he didn't blush in the days he spent with her.
It's a pity that Miss Poet later told everyone that there was something in reality, and she didn't play it after leaving the game account to the guild, and Oryant also regretted this for a long time, always saying that since the absence of Merial's teasing Finn's daily small theater, it really still feels like something is missing.
"Hmm...... All in all, Lilith, before asking someone if they love themselves, I suggest you think again about the meaning of the word love and then tell me about it. After a while, Finn came back to his senses from his brief memories, looked at Lilith with a serious expression, and proposed, worried that Lilith would one day be deceived by a few words of rhetoric from a handsome little nobleman.
Lilith looked at Finn, blinking, about two seconds in her mind's eye.
Then, she quietly looked at the young paladin in front of her, and recounted in a calm tone, "Love is patience and kindness. Love is not envy, nor boasting, nor arrogant, nor does anything to be ashamed, nor seeks its own good, nor is it quick to anger, nor does it count the evils of men, nor does it delight in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth. Bear all things, believe all things, hope all things, endure all things. Love never ends. β
ββ¦β¦β
"Am I mistaken?"
"No, you're not mistaken, it's my brain that's in the water."
Finn was expressionless, and then slapped himself in the face, and said in his heart that he had entered the water in his mind before he wanted to answer Lilith's question "What is love" in the original words of 1 Corinthians?
Is it because it's troublesome?
Or is it that your language can't give you an accurate definition of this simple but complex word?
Maybe.
So then, Finn had to patiently tell Lilith that liking in the popular sense probably refers to the feelings of mutual love between teenagers and girls, and love is a further sublimation on the basis of this relationship.
If the boy is in love with the girl, and the girl is in love with the boy, the boy and the girl can walk into the church hand in hand and have their wedding ceremony under the auspices of the priest.
It's like the book you read a few days ago in the attic of Leah and Telx's manor library, the knightly novel ends with the brave knight of Lausander defeating the evil king, saving the beautiful princess from the tyrant, and capturing the princess's heart, and finally marrying the princess in a rural village, and the two form a new family and live happily together. This is the love that sublimates from liking.
While taking the chivalric novel that Lilith had read at the Lord's Manor a few days ago as an example, Finn wanted Lilith to understand that the so-called liking and love really can't be said casually, but he was a little embarrassed when he said it, and then told Lilith in a tactful tone, "Our relationship is actually just friends, and maybe we may like each other one day, but it is still far from the level of love." I feel that the awkward and embarrassing atmosphere when he says this is as if he is handing out a good person card to a little girl who admires him.
Luckily, Lilith's brain, which is severely lacking in emotional thinking, will never think about the plot about the good guy card.
At this point, Finn glanced a little evasively from Lilith's still, stunned face, and rubbed his slightly reddened cheeks with his fists, expecting that Lilith's innocent curiosity would cease to stop.
However, he forgot that the brain circuit of a warlock girl is different from that of an ordinary girl.
Then I saw that Fain had just sent out the "good guy card" for Lilith for a while, Lilith's black eyes blinked, and she seemed to think of something, and then asked: "Then, can there be love between girls and girls?" β
"Poof!"
The sound effect of the second water jet.
"Also, can teenagers fall in love with each other?"
"Uh... cough cough cough ......"
I felt like the water in my stomach was coming up and choking into my trachea.
"Also, if a teenager is a human being, but a young girl is not a human being, can teenagers and young girls still ......?"
"Stop! Stop! (To be continued.) )
