Chapter 12: The most touching realization

With an average altitude of more than 6,100 meters above sea level and snow-capped all year round, the white mountains stretch for more than 100 kilometers across the western edge of the Kalle steppe, which is a natural barrier on the Kalle steppe, completely isolating the steppe from the world to the west. The snow on Mt. Shirahime melts and merges into countless streams that leave them at the base of the mountain. As a result, countless waterfalls of all sizes have formed on the steep cliffs, and from a distance, the foot of Mt. Shirahime, which is filled with white water all day long, looks like a castle in the sky wrapped in white clouds. Eventually, these droplets of pure water that fall from a height of several thousand meters converge into small clear rivers that flow through the Kalle steppe into the Mana River and the Red Lake, nourishing the fertile land.

At the southwest end of Mt. Shirahime, which is closest to the mushroom city where the moths live, there is the highest waterfall in the Shirakhime Mountain Range, the Totenburi Waterfall. The waterfall drops more than 800 meters from top to bottom, and pure snow water flows down from a pit about 900 meters high. The water flows straight down from the sky, because the water flow is not large, so the flowing water forms a mist in the air, and a part of the water droplets are sprinkled on the boulders on the ground, and then gathered into an oval pool with an area of about 40 square meters. During the day, the waterhole of the waterfall is sprinkled in the air for several hundred meters, and the chill of the snow water in the pool will become a little warm after being radiated by the warm sun.

More than a dozen white and smooth boulders are scattered around the waterhole, and between the boulders grows a dense potato nearly 3 meters high. The leaves of the large dark red fan-like yam are covered with water droplets. Two birds flying from afar snuggled up to each other on a leaf, enjoying the sweet drops of water together. On the boulder opposite the leaves, Xia Lei'er, who was sitting in a daze with her hands and knees, looked at the birds in front of her such a warm scene, but her eyes became more and more melancholy.

After fleeing from the blue banana forest to the Heavenly Waterfall, Xia Lei'er's heart has been difficult to calm down. The moth-girl would come here no matter what was on her mind, and listening to the sporadic sound of water droplets falling from the sky and gently hitting the boulder usually calmed her down quickly.

But this time she didn't get her wish, she was quietly in a daze for a long time, but there was always the smiling face of the Ant-Man in her mind, she couldn't figure it out, she couldn't understand why the strange Ant-Man smiled so kindly at her for no reason, and she couldn't understand why she was so fond of a stranger's smile this time.

Charelle saw the two birds on the potato leaves not far away again, they occasionally affectionately groomed each other's feathers, she seemed to understand the love that the moth queen said, and had to admit that she was cast by the other party This love spell. This was a scene that she was used to, but it was only at this moment that she really understood the meaning. Love is the mutual dependence and admiration between the two without any reason, a kind of love for each other. Because of this affection, they are attracted to each other and pay attention to each other.

When Xia Leier experienced this feeling of love, she suddenly understood why her heart hurt when she saw those two butterflies flying in the blue banana forest just now, it was a very common scene in her growth process, but it touched her heart at that moment. At a certain point in her growth, she met the right person and naturally understood love. Just like a baby, from the initial ignorance to learn to sit, to the later half-understood attempts to crawl, and finally naturally learn to walk.

At this time, Xia Lei'er was a little overwhelmed, she put her pointed chin on her knees with her hands and knees, and looked up at the blue starry sky, she felt that she wanted to cry, and her piercing empty eyes seemed to be looking for something. Charelle's heart was scared and struggling, she hoped that the Ant-Man would chase after her, but she didn't dare to admit her thoughts. The man huddled under his soaked wings, beside the sound of the squirming water, surrounded by the gray boulders and the tall potatoes, like a sad song, was heartbreaking.

Garer is indeed trying to pursue Charelle. Even though he was exhausted after nearly half an hour of rapid running, from the rapid jump at the beginning to the slow walking later, Garer was unwilling to give up.

"Girl, girl......" Jia'er still shouted all the way along the mountain range of Shirahime, looking for the Mothman sister who only had a one-sided relationship. The noble prince is desperate to find Xia Leier, and it is also because of the ignorant love that makes Xia Leier extremely confused and scared at this time, but longs for it. But unlike Xia Lei'er, Garer didn't realize it yet.

Not far away, the eye-catching waterfall is like a fairy's skirt hanging between heaven and earth, Prince Jiaer is the first time to see such a spectacular natural scene, he was shocked by this waterfall, stopped and watched. Soon, however, Garr's anxiety drove him on, and he thought that the Mothman sister should be at the waterfall. So Garr's pace, which had already slowed down, picked up again.

As the weary Garr climbed up a boulder along the stream, he admired the marvelous work of nature—the endless waterfall, with a ring of white splashes against the majestic cliff rushing all the way down, like an army of thousands of horses sweeping down, and finally turning into mist, drowning the cliff as far as the eye could see.

Jia Er admired the waterfall in front of him from top to bottom, and finally stopped at the clear waterhole at the bottom, to be precise, Xia Lei'er who was squatting on the boulder by the waterhole. Yes, Charlael watched him intently from the moment Garer appeared, until the rude Ant-Man in front of her met her eyes.

Suddenly finding that the Mothman sister who had been worried about him all the way was staring at him expressionlessly, Jia Er's stunned face turned into surprise. Prince Jiaer had an innocent heart, he did not have any discomfort or pretentiousness, and naturally said with a smile: "Girl, if you don't mind, I just want to know your name." Garer said as he walked cautiously towards Xia Lei'er.

"I ...... My name is Garr, sorry. Realizing that he should introduce himself first, Garer hurriedly added, and after saying that, he consciously avoided the other party's increasingly aggressive gaze. Garer was a little overwhelmed, but he still stubbornly walked up to Xia Lei'er.

Poor Charelle, who was grieving over this matter, and was concerned about him for no reason, turned out to be the last person who actually appeared, yes, he chased him all the way. Her mind went blank, and she felt weak and a little annoyed by Prince Garr's questioning, and signaled it to the other through her eyes. Still, Garr walked over to her and sat down, yes, two hearts that were attracted to each other made them sit together by default.

So in addition to the gurgling stream, there were also clouds and mist in the sky, and of course, the embarrassment of Jia Er and the helplessness of Xia Leier in the clouds, this moment seemed to have stopped time.

The confused Xia Lei'er looked at the deep starry sky, her heart was so tired and powerless, because her heart was experiencing the struggle between nature and will at this time. Charelle was actually attracted to the Ant-Man next to her from the beginning, but she didn't want to admit and accept it. She was too tired to be angry, so she quickly glanced at Jia Er next to her with her spare eyes, and found that he was just stupidly accompanying her to look at the sky in the distance.

In Chariel's eyes, Jia Er is like an ignorant child, maybe he can't understand exactly why he is chasing others all the way. But Charelle knew very well that he was a kind of affection, different from the love between sisters, he liked himself. Slowly, Xia Lei'er's heart changed, the fear and embarrassment she had just now were gone, this Ant-Man Garer was silently waiting by her side, and she seemed to feel a sweetness that she had never felt before.

Charelle still doesn't know the greatness of the power of love, love, which can make people unconsciously accept all the positive and negative sides of each other, and slowly reject each other's prejudices. This silly girl, she didn't immediately realize that it was love that convinced her, and this sweetness was the fruit of love overcoming will.

However, the honest prince of Garr really didn't know why he was so eager to be with this moth man beside him, and his heart was as pure as the stream next to them.

"Your name is Garr?" Xia Li'er suddenly retracted her gaze into the distance, and she stared bravely at the former Heant-Man in front of her. Jia Er was a little surprised that Xia Lei'er would suddenly talk to him, and he looked at her in panic and nodded. Through the clear eyes of Jia Er, Xia Lier saw the sadness and sweetness on her clear face, she suddenly felt a sour nose and the last bit of will in her heart completely collapsed, and tears skipped through her eyes and slid down.

Witnessing this scene, Jia Er was extremely panicked and helpless, he looked at Xia Lei'er distressedly, and opened his arms to comfort her, but he didn't dare to touch her.

"Girl, girl...... What happened to you? Garer asked anxiously, not knowing what he had done wrong.

Charelle didn't cry, and let her flood of tears slide freely, across her face, and finally to the ground. Charelle knew that all this was caused by this Ant-Man, but she felt so happy, because this Ant-Man cared so much about herself.

Xia Leier didn't want to embarrass Jia Er anymore, so she took the initiative to snuggle under Jia Er's strong arms. The moment her charming face pressed against Garr's thick chest, Charelle felt a kind of happiness and sweetness that she had never felt before, and all the exhaustion that had tormented her heart was overwhelmed by this happiness. But Jia Er was shocked by Xia Leier's sudden change and broke out in a cold sweat.

"Girl, girl......" He looked down in horror at the moth who had fallen into his arms in an instant, not knowing what to do.

"Call me Charelle." Xia Li'er didn't look up, she closed her eyes as soon as she said a word, she was really tired, buried her head in Jia Er's arms, and stopped talking.

"Charle......?!" What a beautiful name! Garer excitedly looked at the Mothman sister in his arms and stopped talking, and he knew that she must have a beautiful name. In the end, Jia Er carefully wrapped her right arm that was parked in the air around Xia Li'er's back and let her sleep.
