Chapter 57: Roselle's Like
In order to be able to fulfill their promise to Morfi, the people of the Demon King Continent need to have Figilio join them. This task was naturally given to Bianco, as she would never get the wrath of Figilio.
The black-haired girl was also happy that she could help, but soon her pleasure turned to depression. The white-haired deity, who usually appears by name, seems to have known what she is about to do, and has chosen to run away from itβso much so that she can only carry the "secret weapon" her mother gave her to search for Figilio all over the base.
Running away was a favorite act of the god, and in order to cope with this, Linpertha asked Sigela to help her make a special device for detecting Figilio, which could sense Figilio's breath so that they could find him.
Of course, Biancole thought that this was also Figilio's willingness, after all, without his breath as a sample, the instrument would not be able to work. As Keagle said, Figilio is called duplicity.
This instrument is flawed, and this is unavoidable, because it is still something made by humans after all. It could only pick up movement within three kilometers, and as long as Figilio made up his mind to dodge, as long as he ran into the sky, Biancole had no way of knowing where he was.
Biancole spent the morning navigating the common area inside and out, and the small instrument in her hand remained unchanged. She added to Figilio in her heart as she sat down on a bench in the courtyard and sighed wearily.
Her physical strength wasn't so bad, but the fact that she couldn't find Figilio frustrated her. The thought of the white-haired deity trying to let them do their own work made it hard for him to stop churning up. Not to mention that he should play a part as a god of the Demon King Continent, since he has always claimed to want to be her father, shouldn't he appear as a good father and like a hero when she needs him to appear?
If Figilio continues like this, she will consider lowering his evaluation by a notch, just a little higher than her biological father! Even if Figilio showed up, she would have to ask him to give an explanation.
The girl sighed again, but this time, it seemed that she was not alone.
Biancole quickly turned her head to look to her right, and she saw an aqua blue head swaying gently behind a tree not far away, and she hesitated for a moment, then tiptoed around the tree.
The figure behind the tree was no stranger, the girl who had been regarded as the core of the Morfi combatants was sitting on the ground, her hands clasped to her knees, her head hanging down and her expression unclear. Bianko was about to speak, but she thought of Rosier's ample combat experience and physical reflexes, and she cautiously took two steps back before she stood still.
"Roselle?"
Despite trying to keep her voice as quiet as possible, the girl under the tree was still startled, and the moment she jumped to her feet, she drew her pistol - much to Bianko's rejoicing in her decision.
ββ¦β¦ Yes! Bianco! Rossile reacted for a moment before she realized who she was seeing, and she immediately put away her pistol, "I'm sorry, I was distracted." β
"It's okay, I scared you." Bianko took a step towards her, "Why are you here?" Isn't there a patrol assignment today? β
"Well, today I'm resting. But how did you get to Gullah's house? Looking for Nado-sama? β
"Gulla?" Bianko asked suspiciously, "I remember Hua Shao said that this is a common area?" β
"Each family and common area can be connected, otherwise this place would not be called a common area." Rosier laughed, but Bianko always felt that there was something in her smile that she hadn't seen before, "This is already within the reach of the Gula family, you must have walked a little bit...... But it's nothing, and everyone won't be so clear. β
"yes......"
Biancole walked over to Roselle and sat down on the floor as she had done before. Rossiel sat down as well, and the two of them stared together at the shadow of the leaves cast on the ground.
"What were you sighing about?"
Bianco's direct question startled Rossile again, and this time her face flushed and she stammered.
"Y-Did you just hear?" Rossiel lowered her head in embarrassment, "I didn't think anyone would come here, I didn't pay attention at all......"
Biancole touched her head comfortingly, and she seemed to know why someone liked to touch her head all the timeβit felt good when someone else's head was touched.
"Are you in trouble?" She asked, "Did someone bully you?" β
"It's not that someone bullied me, and it can't be that someone can bully me." Rossile grimaced, "Only Rosser, my brother, likes to play tricks on me, but his little tricks don't give me a headache." β
Before Biancole could ask, Roselle sighed again.
"Actually, I just don't quite understand." She frowned tangledly, "I know that I like someone, but there is a big difference between our backgrounds and living environments, and the common topic is fighting. So every time I see him, I want to pull him into a fight, but he's very strong, so every time he lets me go, I don't have to go all out at all. Then I would be very angry...... I'm about to suspect that I'm just looking for someone to work with. β
"Hmm......" Bianko blinked, she couldn't quite understand Roselle's feelings, but it would be too embarrassing for her to say that, "but it's not the same feeling to like being alone and wanting to talk to someone, right?" β
"It stands to reason that it should be...... "Rosier shook her head in annoyance, "what annoys me the most is the attitude of the other party." Don't go all out because you look down on me? While it was true that he could get me hurt with all his might, it still made me feel like he wasn't taking me seriously at all...... Even if he wanted to talk to him sometimes, he just kept smiling and listening to me, that kind of smile...... It felt like a long way off, and he just dealt with me politely. β
"How did you like him?" Bianko asked curiously, "If you don't even live in the same place, you shouldn't see each other very often?" β
"Yes, I have my mission, and I can only go out once when I have a break like now, and he only comes to Morfi when he has a mission......" Rossielle's cheeks puffed out, which was a cute girly look rarely seen in her, "I first noticed that he was also a very strong person, and I liked strong people, just like Lord Reins. But then I found out that he was not the real him, the real man was very approachable, and always carelessly got a lot of things wrong......"
Rosier smiled unconsciously as if she was remembering something.
"If you want to say why you like him, it's actually an accident." She shrugged, "You know that some time ago, the families and mercenaries on this side of the Goddess Continent joined forces to deal with Arka, right?" Although Arka was successfully dealt with, there are still many things to deal with in the future, to appease other families and mercenaries, and not all of them are good-natured guys, and it is normal for conflicts to turn into battles. At that time, the church helped us clean up the mess, and it just so happened that my team was working with him. β
Bianko had heard about "Arka" from Kyalde's mouth, so she was no stranger to it. And Rosier's "church" also made her seem to understand who that person was. Although she didn't understand why Murphy needed to appease the other families and mercenaries, it didn't stop her from being a quiet listener.
"There will always be families who look down on us, they know that we are Molfi, but they think I am a bully when they see me at a young age." Rossiel snorted heavily, "So I'm going to give them a little bitterness." They can't beat me, but there are so many of them that there is no way to do it, and Morfi can't send everyone out at once to deal with every family, so by the time I realized it, the guns of that despicable family member were about to hit meβ"
Biancoe gasped, her reaction seemed to amuse Rosier, and she smiled and pinched Bianco's face.
"Don't worry, I'm still sitting here, so nothing will happen. In fact, it was he who blocked the bullet at that time. Incredible, right? The magic that the Church and His Excellency Philip can use is something that our technology will never be able to figure out. But judging from the results, he just blocked the bullet that I couldn't even see the trace, and he was very angry at that time. Once he made a face, people didn't dare to try to provoke him again. It was at that time that I thought he was so handsome. β
After Rosier finished wistfully, she quickly became depressed again.
"I know, that doesn't sound right, does it?" "It's as if I'm only grateful to him because I was saved a life, not because I love him...... It's no wonder he doesn't take my feelings seriously, after all, the reason is so frivolous, and he's ten years older than me. β
Bianko's eyes widened subconsciously, but she quickly restored herself to her composure.
"There's nothing wrong with that." She affirmed, "Kui took me out of prison, so I fell in love with Kui, and the more I knew about Kui, the more I liked him, and if this wasn't right, we wouldn't be married." As for age...... I remember, Gail is more than ten years older than Jura? β
"The two of them are an exception." Rossiel hurriedly waved her hand, "They have been together for many years, and they know each other very well, and it has been less than a year since we first met each other." β
"Does he know you like him?"
"Probably know?" Rossiel covered her forehead in annoyance, "I'm sorry, I know this is a little weird...... But in my mind...... At one of Morfi's drinking parties, I was drunk by that bastard of Rosser, and vaguely seemed to say something to him...... But I'm not conscious, so I don't know if it's my imagination. β
"Oh......" Bianko nodded, "I've told Kay a few times that he likes him, but the first few times he thought I didn't understand what it was, and just liked him like Lanoda and them." β
"Uh......h I'm a little envious of you. "I'd love to talk to him a few more times, but I'm afraid that if he refuses to go back to church after that, I won't have a chance." β
Bianko could only look at her sympathetically, for she could not give any advice. She patted Rossille on the shoulder, as her two friends had done to her, and stayed with her in silence.
