Chapter 16: The Golden Elf (14)
"HmmβI'm thirsty. A hoarse voice interrupted Elen's thoughts, and by the time he turned, Victoria was already struggling to get up.
The blue pajamas were dotted with a few small white lace flowers, which looked a little dim under the flickering flames of the kerosene lamp.
Eileen hurriedly took a glass of water and handed it to Victoria, who took the glass, lowered her head and whispered "thank you".
It seems that Victoria is more fragile than usual when she is sick, and in Ellian's short memory, Victoria should be colder and more awkward.
But Victoria is even cuter now.
Looking at Victoria, who was drinking water in small sips, Elian suddenly had an urge.
The urge to hold the girl in front of you in your arms.
The doll-like Victoria, the Victoria with emerald pupils, and the Victoria who was ostracized by everyone and abandoned by his relatives.
The little girl in front of her, less than one hundred and forty centimeters, possessed a hoarse voice that did not match her age and appearance, a calm mind, and the power that everyone wanted to have. In Elian's view, this was not a wealth given to her by God, but an unknown curse.
"NaβVictoria. Eren whispered, "I can take you away if you want." β
"Do you want to abduct and sell girls?" Victoria's hoarse voice said with a hint of teasing.
There was a hint of something else, if Ellen heard me correctly.
"Ah, no! I just don't think you're having a good time here, so... Eren said and stopped.
He didn't even know what Victoria really wanted in life, so he decided everything.
Perhaps, Victoria, who lives here, is not as unhappy as Elian sees. Perhaps, she was also looking for something to stay here.
Victoria's cottage has no roof, but she has a sky.
"It's nothing!" Eren suddenly figured out something, figured out what Victoria really wanted, not to escape from here, but...
"Whatβdon't you even have the guts to abduct and sell girls? What a coward!" said Victoria chuckled.
This was the third time Eren had seen Victoria's smile.
Small, faint, but she was really smiling.
"Ahh
"What a clumsy excuse, can't you even lie?" Victoria looked at Ai Yue, who was sleeping beside her, and suddenly felt that if she was traveling with such a person, she might be unexpectedly happy.
"If it doesn't rain, won't you be able to see it in the house?" said Victoria, looking at the moonlight pouring from the rooftop, "what a fool." β
On the pillow, the blue Torvi seemed to bloom, revealing the green stamens, and looking at the small flowers like blue fairies, Victoria was silent.
Like the dawn of the sun in the night, Elien's appearance has added some different colors to Victoria's world.
Whether this color is good or bad for Victoria, for Elian, for this town, no one knows yet.
Perhaps the only ones who know all this are the gods.
If there really is.
What kind of color will the gods be?
Is it black?
Perhaps.

With the first rays of sunlight appearing, Elian, who had been in a daze outside the hut all night, finally woke up a little.
However, the morning of early spring was still the same cold, and Ailian, who only had a short sleeve on his body, felt a little shivering.
"I didn't expect this cold to be good, if the master knew, I guess I would be beaten again. Eren rubbed his shoulders and muttered inwardly.
But it's been a long time since I've seen that master, so I don't know if he's still alive. If I'm not mistaken, I guess I went to the western continent to practice, and I'm really a person who can't be idle.
As she staggered down the haystack, she remembered the time she had spent with her master.
Haha, I really don't want to recall that scene, because I was afraid of trouble, I left my twelve-year-old apprentice at sea alone or something, and only that person could do it.
It's not good, the memories are gradually developing in the direction of collapse. Elian hurriedly shook his head and shook the guy with a wicked smile out of his memory.
Just as Ellen climbed down the haystack, a black coat flew over and landed exactly on Ellen's head.
"No, your clothes. Ellen could only rely on his ears when his eyes were covered by his coat, but this familiar voice was no one but Victoria.
"And... Thank you. β
Looks like my ears can't be relied on. That Victoria actually said "thank you" for the second time, it seems that his ears have begun to deteriorate, is it because he didn't practice enough?
Elian was a little distressed.
Probably because Victoria didn't return his shirt with him.
He staggered into the hut and snatched his shirt from Ai Yue, and Ai Lian was satisfied with getting dressed.
This black coat was left to him by Elian's master before leaving, and with it, there was only half a day's worth of bread.
The devil knows how Allen survived a week at sea, but Allen still likes the coat, probably because the color of the coat suits him well.
Brushing her hair with her hands, Elian began to prepare breakfast busily.
"It's perfect for you. Victoria, who was on the side, said suddenly.
But she was the only one who heard it.
With black hair, black eyes, and a black coat, this is exactly the same as the black death from the spring.
But all the Black Death is doing now is preparing breakfast.
Wouldn't this be too ordinary compared to the name of the Grim Reaper?
But it's good to be ordinary, at least for Elian, for Ai Yue, and for Victoria.
The morning sun shone through the rooftops, and Victoria's blonde hair shone like the golden goblins written in a book.
The black god of death met the golden fairy in the spring.
"What are you doing, look at me like this!" Victoria felt Elian's gaze, and hurriedly picked up the book next to him that Ellen had bought yesterday, and flipped through it with a bang.
Victoria's small cheeks, which had always been cold and expressionless, except for the ears that turned red.
"Victoria!"
βγγγ β
"What's wrong with your ears?"
βγγγ β
"It's turned red. β
βγγγ I didn't turn redβ"
"But, it's really a little ... Ah, don't hit me with a book!"
Eren picked up the book that had fallen on the floor and gently wiped the dirt from the cover.
"You really like books about flowers, Victoria. β
"Noβ" Victoria clutched the book that Eren handed over, and turned her head awkwardly.
Surrounded by the girl's slender arms, you can vaguely see the title of the book, which is called "Black and Gold and Silver Flowers"
