Cassius slowly opened his eyes, raised his arm to block his eyes, blocking out some glare lights, "Hmm...... Where is this......"

Rey, who was taking a boredom nap on the side, suddenly became energetic, "...... Ecastius? Seeing that he was awake, Rey stood up and spoke cautiously, "This is the Cell, your room." He looked at Cassius' still somewhat pale face with some concern, "Where have you been?" We couldn't find you when we came back...... And then why did you pass out near the Sail again? ”

“…… Cough, cough......" Cassius only felt unbearably cold, "...... Who are you......? ”

"Me? I'm Rey. Rey was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and touched the other party's forehead only to find that it was very hot, he turned around and took a wet towel and carefully placed it on his forehead, and handed over the hot water poured on the other side, "...... Is it a little better now? ”

"I have a headache,......" he replied vaguely, "hmm...... cough, cough...... I feel so hot on my face...... Captain......? Where are you......? He looked a little burnt and didn't take Rey's water.

"Isn't it going to be a mess......" Rey snapped. He sat down on the edge of the bed and slowly lifted Cassius up so that he could rest on his shoulder, trying to warm him up with the temperature of his body. "It's okay, I'm here."

"Cold ......" Cassius's voice was low, "Woo...... he shivered a little, "...... Bly...... Gram? ”

“…… It's over, it's really confusing. Rey sighed and patted him lightly, "I'm not Blake." He passed the cup over again, "Drink some hot water, it might be better." ”

Cassius took a sip slowly, then choked and coughed, his face was terribly red, and his shoulders trembled with the violent cough, "Ahem, ahem...... Blake said that he would accompany me to watch and watch when he got to Snow...... cough, cough...... Look at the snowfield, cough ...... Watch the snowfields fall and the sun sets...... Ahem, ahem......"

Seeing that he was suddenly choked, Rey put down the cup in a little panic, then patted him on the back, and after listening to his teammates' intermittent patchwork words, he hugged his shoulder, which was shaking violently from coughing, "It's okay, Blake, he'll be back soon." ”

“…… Woo...... Why not keep your promises? Cassius burst into tears, "Why...... Why don't you follow the agreed ......? cough, cough...... Blake ...... "Tears ran down his burned, red cheeks.

"Huh?" Cassius suddenly cried, and Rey himself was a little flustered and wanted to comfort him, he raised his hand to help him touch the tears from the corners of his eyes and lowered his voice, "It's okay Cassius, I'll take you there when you're well." ”

“…… You're lying to me again. He sobbed and muttered something in a daze.

Seeing him like this, Rey's heart felt as if something was blocked, and it was extremely uncomfortable. "Do you know what you're doing, Blake......" he muttered to himself, hugging Cassius who was leaning on his shoulder, "I don't lie to you." When you're well, I'll take you to see the sunset. ”

“…… You promised. Cassius fell limp into his arms and fell asleep.

"Well, I promised." Rey looked at the white ball in his arms, sighed lightly, and said softly, "...... I promised you for him. He laid Cassius down on the bed and tucked him in the corners. Then he got out of bed, leaned over beside his bed, and closed his eyes for a rest.

……

Cassius' fever was almost gone, and he woke up a second time, looking at Rey in a daze, "Woo...... Captain? ”

"Hey, what's wrong Cassius?" Hearing Cassius call himself, he immediately looked up at him.

"Captain, I had a dream just now, I dreamed that Blake came back, and he said that he would take me to see the sunset when I was cured...... Well...... That's it. He also said that he promised me...... Promise me......" Cassius looked at him earnestly.

"Really? Then you must take good care of yourself and wait for him to come back. Rey laughed. But there were tears in his eyes.

“…… Uh-huh. Cassius nodded vigorously, then closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

"By the way, Cassius, where have you been? We can't find you anywhere. Also, how did you suddenly appear near the Cell? Rey folded his arms and sat down on the bed.

Cassius opened his eyes, "An Liang said that there was a blizzard, and then I want to go to you...... Then it froze in the snow. Afterwards...... There was a guy who called himself Ni Bing who saved me......" he closed his eyes and recalled.

"You...... Met Ni Bing? So, he didn't do anything to you, did he? Feeling a little excited to hear this, Rey grabbed Cassius' hand and glanced at him.

"......" Cassius looked at Rey and then at the panicked look he had grabbed himself, "...... Image. ”

“…… Ahh Knowing that he was out of shape, Rey coughed lightly twice, "Ahem, Cassius, can you remember anything now?" Also, how much do you know about Ni Ice now? ”

"Hmm......" Cassius pinched his chin, "I was blindfolded and my hands tied...... His voice is neutral and he can't distinguish between a man and a woman. Listening to the sound source, I feel like he should be taller than me......"

"Obviously everyone is taller than you, isn't it?" Rey quipped, pinching his serious face, "Let me write it down." He took a small notebook and sorted out the information provided by Cassius.

Cassius glanced at Rey unhappily, and the atmosphere was a little more relaxed than before. He closed his eyes, "Hmm...... He slapped me twice and I still have ringing in my ears...... He probably has a lot of strength......" Cassius said, touching his face unconsciously.

“…… Ta hit you? Where's the hit...... Face? Rey raised his hand and gently stroked the place where Cassius had just been holding, "Does it still hurt?" How dare they even fight my spirit! ”

Cassius smiled, "I'm okay Captain." Well...... When he approached me, it smelled of wine...... Unlike Leland. It was accidentally taken out on the Sail before, and you introduced us to the Dream Soul Wine - a specialty of Pano. ”

Dream Soul Wine is an elf drink that is different from Lelan wine, and the main raw material is the petals of Panot's specialty Dream Soul Orchid. Lelan wine does not have the process of "getting drunk", and if you are not strong enough to drink, you will fall asleep; And Dream Soul Wine, if you drink too much, you will go crazy. As its name suggests, when drunk, it is like a dream, ethereal but clear; It feels like the soul is out of the body, and sometimes there are hallucinations.

"The taste of Dream Soul Wine...... Is he the elf of Pano? Rey remembered that there were very few Pano humanoid elves he knew. Listen to you, it doesn't look like he's drunk. ”

"um......," Cassius thought carefully, "in that room...... And the smell of blood......"

"The smell of blood...... What about other than these? Rey pondered.

“um…… There was something ...... in his tone Despair. I feel like he's disgusted...... He said that he didn't like the elves, especially Blake...... Moreover, it doesn't seem like they are willing to help other elves...... Very arrogant, not caring about anything, not caring, looking down on. Cassius's mind crossed every word of his words.

The sudden amount of information made Rey a little overwhelmed. The quill in his hand moved rapidly, glancing up at Cassius from time to time. So he noticed Cassius's strangeness, "How are you now?" ”

[The above is an adaptation of the plot of language c, before "You lied to me again", the gossip - Rey, the feather guest - Cassius; After that, Coldness - Rey, Feather Guest - Cassius]

"My head is buzzing." Cassius replied. He closed his eyes, his face pale.

Rey put down the notebook. He thought for a moment, sat closer to Cassius, then hugged his head and let him rest on his chest, "Shhhh Listen to me tell a story. ”

"When I was very young...... I didn't practice seriously, and I got angry with Master. Master raised his hand and shaved a big ear, and I was knocked to the ground by him. Gaia was frightened and stood far away......

"That night, after Master rested, I sat on the roof of my house and looked at the stars, looked at it, and remembered it again...... Then I was very sad, whimpering, secretly crying.

Then Gaia came to comfort me.

"He asked me if I was uncomfortable, and I said, I have tinnitus......

Then he embraced me as I hold you now, and said to me:

"When your ears ring, your heart is also messed up. Try to listen to the heartbeat of another elf. When you hear that powerful, steady voice, your heart will be quiet. ”

Cassius leaned against Rey's chest. Knock, knock...... It is very firm, and the voice is very steady, giving the spirit a strong sense of security.

When he was silent, Rey gently rubbed him, then slowly laid him down on the bed, tucking the covers for him again. Then slowly walk out the door.

"Gleo, you go and stay with him. Your energetic vibe is good for him. ”

"Okay." Greo stood up from his lounge chair, "How is Cassius now?" ”

Everyone looked at Rey, too.

He just shook his head.

The atmosphere awkwardly quieted down.

"He had severe frostbite and a high fever. I was stupid just now. Rey frowned, "Greo, be careful. ”

"Okay, okay." Gleo replied, walked in, and slowly closed the door.

"......" Rey sat in Greo's seat, crossed his legs, and supported his face with his arms on his knees.

"Come back quickly, Blake...... I don't care for children. ”

……

The remnant sun casts a veil of blood over the pale face of the endless snowfield.

Cassius sat on the stargazing platform, vaguely feeling an elf behind him.

He turned his head, and a gray shadow came into view, and the cold wind of Snow Star blew his long black hair......

"I promised you."
