is also a ward, and Selinda's room in the Earl's Villa is much darker and clammy than Luo Ling's. So much so that Nina had to raise the fireplace to make the young lady feel more comfortable.

Wrapped in a thick blanket, Selinda curled up on the bed, pale and lifeless.

Nina brought a potion prepared by Master Banderas, a clay bowl with a blue soup and bubbles popping from time to time, which looked quite scary.

"Miss, it's time to take your medicine. Nina whispered.

"Take it, it's completely useless. Selinda said.

"However, Master Banderas said that this repair potion was the best potion he could configure. Would you like to take a bite?" Nina spooned some soup and handed it to Selinda's mouth.

"Take it, I said take it!" Celinda yelled.

Nina moved a little slower, and the plate in her hand was overturned by her, and the whole bowl of medicine fell to the ground. Nina was very distressed, this is ten golden axes to prepare a bowl of potion. Even if it is an ordinary person, after drinking this, the mental ability will be significantly improved, and for mages and magic knights whose mental power is damaged, this is a rare medicine.

However, after a few days of drinking, Selinda's injuries have not improved, and she is still a waste person who can't use a little magic. As a result, her emotions have been in a state of mania. At this time, only Li Jia can calm her down.

Nina cleaned up the broken bowls and exited the room, ready to call Li Jia to come and comfort her. Unexpectedly, as soon as I went out, I bumped into an unexpected person.

"Lord Xiao. She saluted Xiao Chen a little nervously, in the meditation world, he left too deep an impression on her, too indelible.

"Mademoiselle is in a bad mood right now. Nina whispered.

"Do I need to care about this?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile. He knocked on the door, heard no response from inside, and pushed the door straight into the room.

Selinda was sulking, and when she saw Xiao Chen coming in, she was a little nervous. After peeking at "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll", Xiao Chen has not met her alone. At this time, she had a kind of natural weakness in her heart in the face of the lost owner. What's more, Xiao Chen is no longer what it used to be, saving her and Nina has greatly improved his realm, and the strength of a middle-level mage in the later stage will undoubtedly cause great coercion to a magic knight like her. The anger in her heart was suppressed by life.

Xiao Chen walked to Selinda's hospital bed, his fingers hooked, and a chair was pulled in front of him, which was the ability of the Divine Mind Transitive to develop to an advanced stage. Selinda was also able to move objects with mental power before her spirit was damaged, but what she could move was a needle, while Xiao Chen moved a large and heavy chair. Selinda understands that even if she doesn't get hurt, it's a gap she won't be able to catch up with in her life.

"It's long overdue for us to talk about it alone. Xiao Chen sat on the chair, crossed his hands in front of him, and looked at Selinda with a cold look.

"If it weren't for the fact that I was in a coma for more than a week, I still haven't recovered. I should have come to you. Selinda's voice was soft, like a cat barking, completely devoid of her previous strength.

"It's not too late. Xiao Chen could feel her weakness, his feelings about this woman were very complicated, maybe it was the relationship between vision and experience, she gave him the feeling that she was stupid and cunning, such people are often the source of trouble. However, Li Jia has a soft spot for her, and she did fight hard for Li Jia in Li Jia's battle of consciousness, which moved Li Jia so much that she consciously found true love.

"So, what do you want to say? If that's the case, the family has already given you a considerable amount of compensation. Whether it is the concession of commercial terms, the compensation of your gold coins and raw materials, and the family's collection of books open to you free of charge, both the Count and the Master of Banderas have sincerely brought out the best things. Selinda said.

"I admit it. But the damage to "Knowing the Sea Shadow Scroll" cannot be repaired by anything. You've opened it and felt the power yourself. I also understand how much a meditation space means to a magician. What's more, this is the inheritance of the Ancient Seven Holy Pagodas. Think about it, what will happen if someone destroys Master Icassa's "Wordless Dossier?Is it just compensation, or is it a war?" Xiao Chen's fierce eyes made Selinda look away, "Besides, these compensations were all paid by your father and Master Banderas, as the initiator of all this, what do you think?" What I care about is your attitude and choice. ”

"You...... That's right. Selinda lifted the blanket and got out of bed, she was wearing silk pajamas, which were very thin, and her beautiful figure loomed under the pajamas. Her red hair was scattered over her shoulders, and the coma of the past few days had made her more emaciated and pale, and more morbid in beauty. She walked up to Xiao Chen and knelt down slowly, "I apologize to you." I hope Ning can forgive me for my recklessness and selfishness. ”

However, just as her knees were about to touch the ground, an invisible force was against her.

"Get up, I don't need such an apology, I would rather see a change in the future. Xiao Chen frowned slightly, and with a slight wave of his hand, a fine linen shawl at the foot of the bed flew up and covered Selinda's body. He said: "In our place, your kneeling is very inappropriate, if you kneel to me here today, how will I face Li Jia? If you really want to be with him, you still have a lot to learn. ”

"If you don't just push the door in, you're a gentleman. Selinda put her shawl over her body and slowly stood up, "But I just want you to see my sincerity." But you're here today, and I'm a little overwhelmed, and I don't know how to make you satisfied. However, we have different customs and ideas from yours, and perhaps mutual understanding is a good choice. ”

"Humanity, regardless of the human civilization of that world, is slowly evolving. We also had a time when we drank blood and knew no shame, but that was in the past. Since this woman always wants to have the upper hand in words, Xiao Chen is not polite, "This world, except for magic, is a world of the past for us. There is no reason for people to go backwards, so if you really want to be with Li Jia, it is best to take a few steps along our path. Of course, I don't force this, and if you stay where you come from and don't get near him anymore, it's a peace of mind for me. ”

Li Jia...... I'm already together, forever together, we can't be separated. Selinda smiled.

Together, Li Jia moved fast enough, Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "There is no eternal thing in the world." ”

"You don't understand. When I helped him wake up, our souls fused together to fight. Now, we have a kind of empathy where we can feel each other's presence anytime and anywhere, and can even convey various emotions and meanings to each other. This ability is getting stronger and stronger, and one day, I will be able to speak directly to his soul. Do you think we can separate this situation?"

It turned out not to be the kind of together. As for the resonance ability, Xiao Chen was a little surprised, but then he was relieved, isn't this the soul version of QQ, there is not even a QQ show, it is a bird. He laughed and said, "Believe me, I have a lot of experience in this area, and this kind of communication ability is not a guarantee of affection. ”

Seeing that Selinda looked at him suspiciously, Xiao Chen continued: "In my opinion, the premise for two people to be together is similar values and common interests. Li Jia loves you very much. Whether you love Li Jia or not, I don't know.

But no matter what your answer is, you only have two choices: either leave completely and let Li Jia die, or learn to integrate into us and learn to think about things from our interests.

Stop doing things that talk to ourselves and harm our interests. Don't force Li Jia to the point where she can't make a choice. As his best friend, I would never allow that to happen. ”

A hint of annoyance flashed in Selinda's eyes, "But you're putting me in a dilemma. You have even foreseen future conflicts!"

"Because I'm Li Jia's brother, not yours. Xiao Chen smiled, "That's why I want you, not only you, but also the Arias family, to integrate into us." Otherwise, it's hard to say what the future will look like. ”

"How many of you are there, why don't you integrate into our world?" Selinda asked rhetorically, "There is a very good word in the story I heard Li Jia tell called 'follow the local customs', isn't it just used for you?"

"Because the world will change because of our coming. When Xiao Chen said this, he was very calm, as if he was saying that tomorrow was Sunday. But this sentence caused a monstrous wave in Selinda's heart. She clearly felt his seriousness, his self-confidence, his unquestionableness.

"Why would you say such a thing to me, aren't you worried about cooperating with the Arias family?" she hesitated.

"What's the point of cooperation if it's so fragile?" Xiao Chen stood up and looked at Selinda, "I say this to you because you have the potential to be my brother's wife. ”

Perhaps it was this sentence that really touched Selinda, and she lowered her head slightly, "You are so confident." ”

"Because we have real power in our hands. Xiao Chen stretched out a hand, and a point of light appeared out of thin air in his hand, "This is magic, but not real power." ”

He flicked his fingers, and the ball of light flew into the air, and with a wave of his hand, countless points of light flew out of his fingertips. These points of light float in the air, like a brilliant galaxy, illuminating the whole room with brilliance. Some points of light also floated to Selinda's side, and she couldn't help but reach out and hold up one of the points of light, and the points of light slowly came to her under the guidance of her residual mental power.

"That's the real power. ”

Selinda looked at the room full of stars with some confusion, she didn't understand what the so-called real power was. However, when she thought of these people's workshops and factories, of these people's armies and organizations, of the stacks of books in the library, of the unheard of ideas and books. She suddenly had a glimmer of realization. Then a look of horror took over her face. She clutched the ball of light tightly in her hand, "You want to use your set of things, make magic, make magic ......"

"Yes, I want to make magic something that everyone can have. Xiao Chen nodded, "After all, the magicians of this world are too lonely. ”
