Chapter III: Powers

Jiang Xiaoxiao hugged the little boy and buried her head, like a goddess who replaced people's suffering. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Teng Yunshen opened his mouth uneasily, but no sound came out. "She erased my memory," he thought, "and she admitted it herself." She's not kidding, she can do it. ”

But how is that possible? to take away people's memories? This is something that only evil wizards or monsters do.

He began to accept the unknown side of the world. There is such a wonderful atmosphere at night, and beyond the dimly lit territory, you can imagine the incredible magic undulating in the darkness......

But it won't be such magic. The girl who has spent twelve years with you, you have poured all your good hopes into her - and she has taken away your precious memories.

Teng Yunshen took a few steps back in fear. He wanted to be angry, however, he never thought that he would be angry with Jiang Xiaoxiao one day.

He rightfully has the power to be angry.

When he awoke, he had very little knowledge left in his head, like the scarecrow used as a decoration for festivals, empty, and he couldn't even do the simplest addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. And perhaps even worse, he still remembers other things, even more clearly than before, such as the expression of the teacher in class on a certain day, year, month, and day...... Something insignificant, isn't it?

"Shouldn't I thank you?" Teng Yunshen pulled the corners of his mouth with difficulty, trying to pretend that he didn't care, "Didn't let me forget all the things in the past eighteen years?"

The girl looked up at him, her eyes full of guilt. Her eyes sparkled, but they were bottomless.

"It's not for you," she said, "but I can understand that." The courage she had managed to gather was gone, "I'm sorry." She hung her head again.

Teng Yun stared at her in a daze. "I'm useless," he thought, "not even angry." But what could he do? He stood hesitantly, furious, but there was nowhere to burn.

He couldn't fly up and kick the vicious witch to the ground. Even if revenge is a valid reason, however, he has to exercise restraint and find the truth.

Besides, this is the girl he has liked for twelve years. Teng Yunshen once thought that he would no longer have feelings for Jiang Xiaoxiao. There has never been substantial progress between him and her, and there will only be fewer and fewer intersections in the future. He decided to hide such an unknown love in the bottom of his heart...... However, the twelve-year relationship will not be easily changed, and he suddenly realizes that he still likes her so much that he can't think calmly.

"Would you like to listen to my explanation?" Jiang Xiaoxiao said in horror, while carefully observing the change in his expression, "If you want, I will be happy, although it doesn't matter to you whether I am happy or not, even, you need me to be sad...... But I still want to tell you your story. ”

Teng Yunshen covered his forehead, as if someone had hit him on the head hard. He was in a state of confusion, and the pain and dizziness might have made him feel better.

He desperately wanted to get out of this state, to escape from the girl, to escape from the strange world, to return to his room, to the familiar world.

"What about him?" Teng Yunshen pointed to the little boy who was hugged by Jiang Xiaoxiao, he still remembered him, and he still cared about him. No matter what Jiang Xiaoxiao wants to say, no matter what Teng Yunshen's reaction will be, at least one thing will not change: the little boy should return to his parents.

Jiang Xiaoxiao breathed a sigh of relief: "We'll wait here." She pointed behind Teng Yunshen. He turned around, and the shop stood silently in the light, and he was surprised to find that he hadn't run very far.

"Say it. He muttered angrily, "Let me hear your excuses." ”

Jiang Xiaoxiao frowned, as if she was about to cry, "This may not be an excuse," she said in a slurred manner, "Would you like to listen patiently?"

Teng Yunshen took a few steps back, the previous distance making it difficult for him to breathe.

The girl said, "We are wizards. ”

"I've heard that you can divinate and cast spells, right?" Teng Yunshen let go of the hand that was pulling his hair, "I still remember it very clearly...... Why don't you erase this as well? It's the same as erasing the chalk writing on the blackboard. ”

Jiang Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, and after a while, she said, "Your analogy is very vivid. ”

Teng Yun pondered her expression. Probably she's angry, too? No one has ever treated her like this. Teng Yunshen immediately realized how unfortunate he was: he was still nervous about the girl's hurt expression.

"We are wizards," Jiang Xiaoxiao said slowly, "we protect this world. ”

Teng Yunshen lowered his head, looking for traces on the ground...... Nothing, "You destroy the monsters?" he asked.

"Yes. ”

"What are they, where did they come from?" Teng Yunshen guessed, "Hell?" he tentatively stepped on the road under his feetβ€”the concrete was as hard as ever.

"They are among us," Jiang Xiaoxiao replied, "and what you see is also a wizard, a part of the wizard. ”

Teng Yunshen accepted her statement, "There are good wizards, and naturally there are bad wizards." He stamped his foot impatiently, "But why did the good wizard erase my memory? I thought he did it, but it was you...... Do you know?" he said, his voice hoarse, as if he had been choked by an invisible hand, "and when I woke up, your tears made me feel less miserable. I used to think I didn't have much weight in your heart, but now it seems that I'm important, so important that you don't hesitate to force yourself to cryβ€”"

Jiang Xiaoxiao covered her mouth, "That's true! I'm sorry." She said, "We have to make you forget about wizards, that's ironclad, but at that time, he dug up your knowledge, and I can only erase them together." She endured the urge to cry pitifully.

Teng Yunshen was silent for a moment, he was not persuaded, he did not understand, he did not forgive. It took him a moment to discern the meaning of the girl's words. "Who gave you the power to dispose of other people's memories at will?" Teng Yunshen grasped the key point, "If you want to keep the secret, just erase it, no problem." But wouldn't it be strange if you erased all other memories?"

"We've asked for your consent. ”

Teng Yunshen covered his mouth in confusion: "What?"
