Chapter 21: Edison's Approach to Finding Special Talents
"So...... So...... I'd like to know how you managed to convince Ellie to stay in the meditation room, okay?"
Anasta quirked her first question. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Edison was stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically, "Are you worried that I will not succeed in using any coercive means against her?"
Anasta panicked and hurriedly said:
"No, it's not like that, it's just Sister Ellie...... I felt very unsupportive of us being together, and once said to me, 'If we are together, then won't I really become that guy's sister?......' So...... So...... She also said that if I were with you, she would no longer recognize me as a sister. ”
As he spoke, tears appeared faintly in the corners of Anasta's eyes, and Edison always felt that there seemed to be something strange in these words, but looking at her like this, he hurriedly stepped forward and comforted:
"No, I don't think she just wants to say that to you out of thin air, not because she has any bad opinions about you. ”
"I'll tell you! She used to call me brother when she was a child, but she ...... later."
Edison casually said something about Arilan's five years ago, which made her stop crying.
"Yes...... Is that so?" Anasta looked up at Edison with a sparkling look.
This look made him feel quite stressed, and he always had a feeling of walking outside and seeing stray kittens and puppies snuggling up to be adopted; he had a similar experience in his previous life, but in the end he couldn't adopt because of family reasons and gave up, which was a pity.
Now that he was reminded of his memories, he found that he didn't want to perfunctory the girl's question.
He was about to say something more to the girl...... At this time, the ink ball in Edison's mind moved, and pulled him out of that feeling, and when he looked at Anasta again, he felt much calmer, and there was no longer the urge to answer seriously.
(Is this a 'friendly' constitution? No, that feeling is different, it should be—'reminiscence' constitution?)
(It can make people recall the scenes that are favorable to her in their memories, and unconsciously turn the results to her side, to some extent, this means of influencing people is much more subtle than the 'affinity' physique, and there is not much compulsion, so it will not cause people to be vigilant and defensive)
(Even if you find this, if it is not a decision with a huge conflict of interest, you will willingly give her some benefit, because the longer you live, the more susceptible your heartstrings are to be affected.) )
Edison's mind was in a hurry, and combined with the case of Anasta and her descendants in another worldline, he quickly figured out what was happening.
But he didn't stop, but said:
"That's right, it must be like this, so you don't have to worry that Alyslan really hates you, although she is a little willful and a little arrogant, she is definitely a good child. (It's just that she's a nightmare when she's faced with enemies.) )”
"Oh, I'm sorry just now, I seem to have broken the rules of questioning, so then, as punishment, I'll answer you one more question. ”
"The answer to the previous question, I can tell you now, yes, I did use a little trick on Alyslan to keep Alyslane in the meditation room, but I just gave her something to do with all her strength, and I didn't mean to force her, so you don't have to worry about her coming out and losing her temper. ”
"As for what that matter is, it needs to be kept secret, and I won't say it if you ask, so don't waste your next question!"
After speaking, Edison's voice became unusually soft and magnetic, and his body also moved closer, and he took her hand and gently kneaded it between his thumb and four fingers.
If this move is placed in the world of "cultivation line", it is called "tooth extraction from the tiger's mouth"; it is a difficult way to influence people through body movements, and if it is used at the wrong time and in the environment, it is easy to cause a rebound effect.
But now that it was used on Anasta, her "heart defense" was immediately shaken violently, and unconsciously, she asked like a ghost:
"That~ then do you have a girl you like?"
After asking this, Anasta herself couldn't believe that the bold question just now actually came out of her mouth, and for a moment a layer of rouge smeared on her face.
Even Ella, who was next to her, was stunned by the sudden change, and looked at Edison as if she was looking at an alien.
However, the ears of the two of them were raised in unison, looking forward to Edison's answer.
Edison didn't expect that the effect of this hand was outrageous, so that a girl who had met for less than 5 minutes and was very defensive asked this kind of question without thinking.
However, his mind was unusually clear, and he sifted through his memory countless experiences in dealing with similar problems, and he opened his mouth and said:
"Yes, I actually like every beautiful girl. ”
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two froze at the same time, and they thought: "Sure enough, men are all like this! ”
"But I also understand that that feeling is nothing more than a human instinct to chase good things, a biological instinct for possessiveness/desire, but that is not true love......"
"I will not deny that I have this nature, and I will not give up true love because of this nature, if true love is in front of me, nature can be restrained. ”
Edison said this in a serious manner, and then looked directly into Anasta's eyes with clear eyes.
This hand is actually a "witness" in martial arts, but it was used here by Edison's inspiration, and the effect was much softer, but it disturbed Anasta's heart at once.
In addition, the thought that popped up in Anasta's heart after hearing the previous sentence just now made her instinctively feel guilty about Edison, feeling that she had misunderstood a pure teenager.
For a moment, Anasta could only dodge Edison's gaze and did not dare to face it.
"Okay, that's my answer, I don't know if you're still satisfied?"
At this time, Edison retracted his gaze and gave up his intention to pursue the victory, leaving the other party a chance to breathe.
Anasta replied without thinking: "Satisfied!"
Edison's hand is like telling an athlete who is tired of running to stop, and when she wants to run again, she will find that she is too tired to run.
"Then I'll ask you now, Your Royal Highness the Princess, have you ever liked or longed for someone? Not limited to gender and number of people, you can tell me about it~"
As soon as this question came up, Anasta suddenly said everything she could say around her like pouring beans into a bamboo tube.
For example, she has always felt that her mother is living a very poor life......
I have always longed for the attention of my father and the elders of the family......
She looks forward to Alyslan very much, hopes to become good friends with her, and hopes that one day she can stand on the podium of the competition as majestically as Alyslan and be affirmed by the whole family.
Anasta is now a girl who longs to be recognized, noticed, and loved by the whole world.
But because of the 16th of the alien elf blood in her body, and the birth of a merchant mother who was not noble enough, she has no self-confidence and does not dare to move forward, even if she finally becomes a magician, she will still cry secretly sad because she hears others say bad things about her behind her back.
Compared with the elites Edison encountered, she was more like an ordinary and normal girl in Edison's previous life.
That's right, 15-year-old Anasta is just such a girl, like one of Edison's favorite two-dimensional characters in his previous life, she was a malleable child, an unpolished rough stone.
Unconsciously, a shallow smile appeared on Edison's face, and his expression on the battlefield at this moment was so similar to that of Elilan.
It was a kind of look that was equally confident that he could control the overall situation, and in the "Heavenly Court" plan in his mind, there was suddenly an extra place for "Anasta". (To be continued.) )
