Chapter Seventy-Six: Determination (1)
The mellow aroma of black tea wrapped in white mist slowly rises from the white porcelain cup, dissipates in mid-air, and then fills the air, and the tea fragrance is fragrant. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Seth smacked his lips and savored it before placing the porcelain cup containing the boiling black tea back on the porcelain plate on the table. He cast his gaze to the other side, where the girl sitting across a table was staring anxiously at him, her hands rubbing the hem of her skirt from time to time, the sweat of her palms drenching the fabric.
She was eagerly awaiting Seth's reply.
"So," said Seth, chewing the last hint of tea from his mouth, "you want to ask me for a solution?"
"Well," Suzumi nodded affirmatively, as hard as pounding garlic, "If it's Seth, I think there must be a way, so please help me this time." β
Suzu's exaggerated neck was bent ninety degrees, and her hands "snapped" on the table, making an extremely sincere request.
If I knew that you looked down in front of me, your sister would have slaughtered me without saying anything, Seth thought to himself, sighing helplessly and scratching his hair like a bird's nest.
His hair had always been uncombed and fluffy, but now it was even worse than before, for he was still wearing pajamas, and the dark circles under his eyes were still stubbornly hanging on his eye sockets, and sleepy yawns came out of his mouth one after another, like a fish spitting bubbles. Now that the sun had just shot its first rays above the horizon, he was startled by a sudden knock on the door in his sleep, and after holding back the urge to be tired and explode, he moved slowly to the door, turned the handle, and the door lock "clicked" out, and the bell outside the house appeared in front of her, and she was sweating profusely and looking anxious.
After a few moments, the two sat across the table, one still drowsy and the other refreshed by the troubles, and in the great contrast between the two sides, Suzu began to recount the previous night's experience to Seth.
Seth listened to Suzuna's incoherent words due to nervousness, and his sleepy brain struggled to understand the meaning. Just last night, Lyle's brother suddenly came to the human realm from the moonlit realm and accepted the order of the high-level of the moonlit realm to arrest the criminal who had the crime of embezzling the apocalypse of the moonlit realm treasure to the moonlit realm and accept punishment, and the so-called criminal was Lyle.
That's probably what happened, although it felt like listening to a story, but Seth still believed it, and Suzuna's crying appearance was definitely not pretending. He got up and walked to the back room, and after a moment he came out with a plate, and he made a cup of black tea for Suzu and himself, both to relieve Suzu's anxiety and to refresh himself.
"Really, obviously when he and Lyle's eldest brother were confronted, he spoke so brilliantly and toughly, and he was violent, but now he was caught off guard by such a contrast. Seth said.
"At that time, it was because of the special situation, I thought a lot in my heart, and then I didn't know what was going on and became excited, and I was very dissatisfied with Lyle's brother, but after calming down, I found that I still didn't know what to do, obviously I was so sure that I told Lyle at the time, saying that I wanted to go to him, but now I don't know how to save it. Suzu said in frustration, now looking mad.
"Yes, you don't have any strength at all, and you don't have any methods and means," Seth said the ruthless truth, and his tone was flat, as if he was drinking white water, "So, anger without strength is meaningless." β
"So didn't I come to you, anyway, since you know what I mean, hurry up and help me find a way, I didn't come to you to listen to your lectures, if I just need to listen to your lessons to solve everything, I don't mind pricking up my ears and listening to your nagging for a day. Suzu pouted dissatisfiedly.
"Even if you come to me, what do you think, do you know what kind of thing you have to face, the Moonnight Knights, that is the power to protect a country and a world, different from the imperial power and the despotic daytime realm, the moonlit night realm is a legal country, with the moonlit night court located in the center of the imperial capital as the core, the moonlit knights maintain the balance of the whole world with their absolute strength, they are the highest point of all rights, and the handling of government affairs is only handed over to those political dignitaries distributed in various provinces, and the apex of the knights, the chief knight, is directly under the orders given by the god of the moonlight realm, that is, the queen of the nightHe then forwarded it to the commanders of the other sub-regiments for execution. β
"As Lyle's brother Rhein Plath said, if you insist on doing that, the Knights of the Moonlit Night will not sit idly by, except for those ordinary knight soldiers, the commander of every knight branch is unimaginable to you, and in the current situation, there is no power to fight back. β
"However, I have made up my mind," Suzu said, "so no matter how hard the wall in front of me is, I will not back down." Even if I was to calm down at that time, I thought, I still chose to say those words to Lyle, to save him. If I hadn't been able to save him, I don't think I'd be able to rest safe for the rest of my life. β
"Your determination is strong, that's true, but do you want to make a big deal with your determination alone?"
"But ......"
"Even if I do it myself, I am not sure that I will face several regiment commanders at the same time, and besides, I am alive and well, how can I have nothing to do to find a dead game," Seth said, "For me, your words are too naΓ―ve, and your thoughts are too impulsive, really, Lyle's kid is the same, he is all thinking about saving people, but he has no reason at all, you are also human beings, okay, have you thrown away such a thing as the splendor of reason called human nature?"
"But, isn't it because of Lyle that I can sit here unharmed now, so this time, no matter what, I'm going to save him. In Suzu's eyes, there was an unwavering light flickering, which was very dazzling.
"What is the reason for saving people?" is it for the seemingly agreed promise you made to him last night, or to repay him for saving your life, or is it ......"
"It's not that simple," Suzu suddenly raised her voice, slapped her hands on the table, and stood up, "How can such a thing be clear, in fact, I don't know why, but I just want to save him, and after knowing that he will be sentenced to death, I am restless all the time, desperately hoping that he is safe and sound, this mood is so strange, wanting to save him is simply trying to save him, and the reason or anything is actually not needed at all,"
Suzu never thought she could make such a bold statement, super drag!
"I really can't do anything about you little ghosts, all of them are so willful, all of them are so brainless, and you want me to wipe your ass for you all the time, am I a nanny?" Seth sighed helplessly and complained.
But does the brainless dead child also have his own firm belief in being a dead child? Seth asked in his heart, and Suzu's words actually moved him a little.
"Because now I can only rely on you, uncle. β
"Blindly relying on others will never grow, and if you want to ask me to help me, don't call me uncle. β
"Well," Suzu took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled, along with the words that had been brewing repeatedly, "Let me be stronger." β
Seth was stunned for a moment, the idea of just wanting to pick up the porcelain cup and drink it all was replaced by another thing, he remembered that Suzu already had her own magic, and it was the influence of the apocalypse, what kind of mutation would happen was unknown, then all possibilities were also unknown.
Do you want to gamble? Bet on the miracle of this girl? Seth slumped into his chair and let his thoughts wander.
Outside the window, the sun has risen, shining brightly, like a morning light symbolizing hope.
