56 Communication between God and Demons
"Woo......"
Recovering from the pain, Iss opened his eyes and looked around a little confused. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The hanging crystal lamp, the luxurious furniture, and the bed that is very comfortable to sleep in are obviously an unfamiliar environment, and he usually does not have such good conditions after wandering outside for many years.
"Oh, yes...... I was ...... Huh?"
Is, who wanted to sit up from the bed, felt the obstacle, and with a little curiosity, he turned his head and saw Lin sleeping on the edge of the bed.
The girl seemed to be sleeping soundly, and she was still snoring with tears in the corners of her eyes, and that look so tired that the boy who wanted to complain was speechless for a while, and couldn't say anything.
"Really...... It's ...... Helpless......"
Looking at Lynn's side face, Is's whole person relaxed, and the somewhat cute sleeping position fascinated him a little for a while. Just a chance glance made him unable to take his eyes off it.
"I've woken up. ”
While admiring, a male voice from outside made Iss tremble.
As expected, the person who came was Phoenix, and the gentle smile that made people feel a little scary directly made Is's whole person vigilant.
"Don't move, let her sleep well, in order to take care of you, she is not less busy. ”
Phoenix sat down in a chair and looked familiar with Is.
"Seraph, you're still so annoying. ”
Is's eyes were full of resentment, and the malice in them seemed to materialize in an instant, and he himself wanted to tear Phoenix to shreds in an instant.
The hated Phoenix didn't care much either, it seemed that he had long expected this boy to say this, he crossed Erlang's legs, and the whole looked like a hanger.
"And sure enough...... The aura that emanates from your body is indeed not something that ordinary humans can have. ”
Phoenix took the tea that had been prepared on the table, poured a cup, and drank it to herself.
"But...... I don't have any impression of your appearance, so I'm guessing you've changed in that regard. As a god-made thing, it's miserable enough to be mixed up like this, I guess...... Are you a demon? a strange beast? Anyway, it shouldn't be one of our gods, and the nasty smell on your body is much heavier than Lin's. ”
“...... Now that you know, what are you letting me in?"
Isis raised his head and asked solemnly.
“...... Well, how to put it, my sister seems to like Lynn very much, and Lin seems to be quite concerned about whether I will keep you, if I drive you away, then ...... It must hurt their feelings, and ......."
Phoenix took a sip of the tea on the table.
"Now that you are in a state of lack of strength, I have completely sealed your power with my flame before, so to speak...... There is no threat until you recover. I think it's fun to raise an original demon...... So if one day I meet up with my former companions again, at least I can show it off. ”
"Hmph, it's so kind, you didn't even know who I was, so you let me stay. ”
Iss turned his head, looking like he didn't want to talk to this person, but at the moment when he was angry, this man raised his index finger and shook it.
In that way, it was like laughing at Is's stupidity.
"Actually, it's not completely clueless. ”
Looking at Is's surprised expression, Phoenix seemed very proud, he coughed and cleared his throat, as if he wanted something very important.
"When I sealed you with flames, your body was able to resist. Although it is only a short moment, since you can reach this point in your current state, it means that your original strength should be very strong, and it is likely to be ...... Rank higher than me. ”
“......”
"Also, your name is Is, I don't know if I guessed wrong, but in my memory, there was also a demon who used to have a similar name. ”
“............”
"When ......"
After drinking the cup of tea, it was put back on the table, and Phoenix, who seemed to have finished what he wanted to say, also got up and walked towards the door.
"Actually...... If you keep your hair a little longer, it will be more handsome. ”
At the moment when the figure disappeared, Phoenix left behind such an unpredictable sentence.
...............................................................................................................
In the silent room, there were only two people left, and all that reverberated was the sound of Lynn snoring.
“...... Grow long hair or something, I want you to take care of ......"
Isis touched his hair with his hands, looking angry. Then, the boy's gaze shifted to Lynn, and she also smiled wryly at her defenseless appearance.
"What if...... I can be like you, maybe I don't have to worry about my life and death every day......"
"Woo......"
Maybe it was because of the previous conversation between the two, or maybe it was a subconscious feeling that someone was looking at him, Lin, who had been sleeping soundly, made a sound, and after opening her eyes vaguely, she looked at Iss a little blankly.
“...... Is?"
"Yes. ”
"You...... Are you alright?"
"Sort of. ”
"Woo......"
"Hey, what's wrong with you, don't cry!"
"Great......"
Lin cried and hugged Iss.
"Really...... That's great...... I thought it was ...... You're going to sleep like this......"
Is's whole body froze in place, and in the face of Lin's hug, he didn't seem to react to it, just stayed there, and let the girl hold him.
"I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... It's all my ......."
“...... It's okay. ”
"I'm really sorry...... Sorry ......"
“...... It's okay. ”
"I'm sorry ......"
"It's all ......"
The boy who felt the warmth in the girl's arms and the malice of the world was touched in his heart. My nose was sore, and for some reason, tears had already dripped down.
"I didn't ...... Affair...... Woohoo......"
Perhaps, he was a demon.
But now, he's just an ordinary kid.
Wandering in the human world for many years, perhaps he has long forgotten who he was originally. Hunger and cold, human pursuit, this has long become commonplace.
Yes, he doesn't have to be trapped in the Temple of Gods and Demons like he used to be. But this kind of life, this life of starving to death outside at any moment, is not what a demon expects.
A full meal to eat, a home to shelter from the cold, this is what he was looking forward to not long ago.
But now......
"I'm sorry...... I ...... before I hate you......"
He felt that it was good to have such a small but very warm embrace.
