Chapter Twenty-Five: Is There Always a Good End to Adventures?
Olga looked up at Lulunaka. He saw a Lulunaka without a grin, a Lulunaka without any unpleasant expression on her face, and a ...... Lulunaka with a tired face. Her tired expression made her look as quiet as night.
Olga didn't expect Lulunaka to have such an expression, and she didn't know why she suddenly became enlightened, and many of her dissatisfaction and prejudices against Lulunaka were also alleviated. He smiled, turned back, and continued to look at the campfire, "At least not now." I can't just die until Erna can stand on her own, or I won't have the face to see her mother. β
"I hate you fools with crystal hearts. Lulunaka snapped into words, and then turned her head to the other side, as if she was about to close her eyes.
Olga remembered something and spoke to Lulunaka again, "There's one thing I want you to say yes to. Don't tell this kid anything superfluous, okay?"
"Whatever, I'm not interested. Lulunaka said.
Olga didn't think Lulunaka was a backsliding, and since she said so, she wouldn't tell Julius the truth. Olga stopped talking and kept a quiet vigil.
Lulunaka, who turned her head, didn't close her eyes immediately, she sighed lightly, shook her head slightly, and closed her eyes after a long while.
Olga didn't want Lulunaka to be too talkative, and Lulunaka did what he wanted. But sometimes, the truth doesn't need Luluna Kado to say it - what's even more amazing is that when a person doesn't want to tell someone the truth, the person who doesn't know the truth learns the truth directly under very coincidental circumstances.
What would you think? Julius. At this time, maybe you don't know anything, but you should be happier.
Lulunaka smiled as she closed her eyes. This is rare. Although some of the things that have happened have made her a little unhappy and unhappy, what will become of her in the future, how will a person grow after making a mistake that he will never forget in his life? Or will there be no change, the same as in the past? After all, human beings are creatures that always make the same mistakes.
Lulunaka has a little more to look forward to in the days ahead.
A night without a word β for some, a sleepless night. By the morning, everyone had woken up. Pattin, who alternated keeping vigil with Olga in the middle of the night, extinguished the last bit of fire in the campfire, and Olga and Julius woke up just in time. It's not the early spring weather, but it's still a little cooler in the morning, especially in this eerie and cold forest.
"Good morning, everyone. Lulunaka stood on a tree branch and said to the three people below. She looked good-looking, with a smile on her face. Lulunaka, who showed her tired face in front of Olga yesterday, seemed to have only appeared in Olga's dream, and to Olga, it didn't seem real. But that's what happened.
"If we're rested, then it's time for us to go. Lulunaka laughed, "I've pretty much done around here, so let's go back first." The trip Luluna was referring to was naturally the chapel where Apo and Romeona were.
There are not many things that need to be packed, except for three horses when the four of them go out, they are dressed lightly, and now they don't even have horses, which is even more relaxed and casual. Julius got up quickly, and immediately carried his luggage and cross-sword. His face was a little pale, and it had been a little more than a day since the incident, and now although he was able to walk on his own, his spirit was still in a state of exhaustion.
"Good morning, Julius!" Lulunaka greeted Julius, her energetic voice startling Julius, "You don't seem to be in good spirits, although the weather will get hot and humid, but don't lose to this miasma, otherwise it will be very troublesome to treat, and you will have an extra mouth that cannot work at all." β
"I'm not that weak!" Julius replied dissatisfiedly, but in a loud voice, it was clear that he really didn't have the strength to deal with Lulunaka, and he looked even weaker now that he was usually in a passive position.
Lulunaka just smiled at Julius's counterattack and continued, "Rest well, right? I hope no one's eyes are red, because they won't be in good spirits and can't see clearly." β
Lulunaka said this a little inexplicably, and Olga and Patin only thought she was overhorned, so much so that she looked a little excited.
It didn't take much time to get ready, and they headed out of the forest. Olga was at the front, occasionally cutting off the branches that stood in the way with the small scythe in his hand, and Julius followed behind him. Patin was behind them, and Lulunaka didn't disappear from their sights today, following Pattin's side. The two followed not far behind Olga and Julius, but they were definitely not too close, and if the people in front of them did not prick up their ears and Lulunaka and Julius talked, the people in front would not have paid attention.
"In the end, you still haven't explained to us why you brought us to this kind of place. "And it's a very quirky place, and it feels like ...... It's very uncomfortable. β
"Didn't you get a great benefit, Mr. Edgar. Lulunaka laughed, "I think what happened to you is enough to be written into the story of the bard." Unfortunately, you don't have witnesses, and you can't tell anyone about this wonderful thingβbecause it will sound like you're making it up. β
"I'm not interested in storytelling. "It's not a story, it's a real thing." β
"I think so, a silver knight who broke through because of some adventures and gained the power of the heart, that sounds too much like a legend. But with your words, I don't think you can be a legendary hero. β
"It's a joke that someone like me can be a hero. Patin smiled wryly.
Lulunaka stretched out her hand and drew a circle on her chest, the place of the circle was exactly where her heart was, "A person with a clear mind is indeed not suitable to be a hero. It's appropriate for you to be a hermit or a monk, but I don't think you want to be involved with religion, do you? And I don't think you can be that kind of person. β
"Aren't you going to explain what you mean by Empty Mind?" said Pattin.
Lulunaka tilted her head and thought for a moment, "To you people of Western Europe, the Void Heart is indeed a very novel term. To put it another way, emptiness, brightness, nothingness, self...... In that case, it's easier to understand, right?"
Patin thought for a moment before he spoke, "That's not a nice statement. β
"So Kongmingxin sounds better, right?"
Patin sighed, "It's not a big deal, forget it...... So, you're not going to explain anything to us, are you?"
"Isn't it enough to think of this as a trial, a gift from heaven?" asked Lulunaka rhetorically.
"We almost died there. β
"But you're all alive. Lulunaka laughed, her bright smile leaving Padding speechless, "Isn't this ending already good? If you really want to know what's going on, you can go back the way you came, re-enter the world, and maybe know what I've done if the Astral Demons agree with you messing around in his house. β
If, as Lulunaka had said, there were spirits entrenched there, then he would never have returned to that place. His strength has improved, it doesn't mean that he can empty his eyes, he has seen the horror of the spirit demon, and those who are stronger and greater than him have also fallen. He wasn't an arrogant man, and he knew exactly what kind of person he was. "That is, you intend to remain mysterious. β
Lulunaka put her finger to her lips and made a silent gesture, "Maybe one day, I'll be willing to share this storyβa lie about dreams and ideals." β
