Chapter 33: Beauty and the Beast

"Six months and seven days, I will not forget the day you left, in the moonlit glade, the last back. ”

The ruins of Chesem, the sparkling moonlight, the slight breeze, and after half a year of traveling, Abdul-Jabbar finally saw the lover he had been thinking about in this world day and night. Raphael sat beside Abdul-Jabbar, her delicate little face was so soft and delicate in the moonlight, as if she had come out of a fairy tale, and her figure was still so perfect that people couldn't help but take a second look. The whole picture is like a real-life version of Beauty and the Beast......

"Abdul-Jabbar, sometimes I am very conflicted in my heart, I chose to leave you on my own initiative, but when I stayed in the hot spring castle for a long time and calmed down and thought about it, I found that I missed the days when I was with you, that warmth, that warmth, in that little forest cabin. ”

Raphael said, looking at the starry sky, where the sky was full of stars, but there seemed to be an indescribable sadness.

"Dear Raphael. ”

When Jabbar said this word again, he felt a little twisted, and the half-year separation was already a little rusty, but in Jabbar's heart, Rafael's sister will always be his beloved baby.

"Huh? ”

In order to liven up the dull conversation, Raphael deliberately put on a cute smile and raised her tone to pretend to be happy. But every time he saw Rafael like this, Jabbar felt a pain in his heart, in fact, it was not only himself who was suffering, but also the lover Rafael in front of him was also in pain, after all, elves and orcs had to go through great trials and tribulations to be together.

"Raphael, what I want to say is that in fact, many times, there is no need to think too much about many things, we all have our own destiny, as long as we want to be together, we will work in this direction, no matter how many difficulties we overcome together, as for the eyes of the world, the setbacks and tribulations that will be encountered halfway, I will try to bear it. ”

Abdul-Jabbar suddenly felt a sour nose when he said this, alas, this may be the first time he was sad when he came to another world, it seems that no matter where he is, there are gatherings and separations, the same starry sky, the same scenery.

"Maybe. ”

Rafael smiled in response, but Jabbar could see that she wasn't really happy, maybe the burden in her heart was still too heavy, maybe as a completely different race, she hadn't fully figured it out, but cherish every minute together. Raphael stopped silent, it was distressing to watch, but the originally lively girl became sad because of such a complex contradiction.

"Well, don't think about it so much. ”

Abdul-Jabbar said, stretching out his large, rough hands and placing them on Raphael's slender shoulders, and time stood still in the night, calm and serene.

"Elf princess, it's almost time. ”

The time together is always so short, when Aysara wakes up the "lovers" from behind, Jabbar knows that Rafael is going again, not far, but must also return to her father, after all, the leader of the hot spring castle, Itreig, does not know about them, Aysara hides it, and tells Itreg that she has something to talk to Rafael alone, and does not let the leader of the wood elves know that his daughter is actually Abdul-Jabbar.

"I'll show everything to my father. ”

As Raphael left, she said to Abdul-Jabbar, that maybe she had mustered up her courage this time, but in the face of such a complicated situation, Jabbar was very upset, and he didn't know how Itreg would react when he found out about it, an orc and an elf?

When Rafael was gone, Jabbar was the only one left on the empty old walls of Chetham. The campfire in the distance burned and shone a little fire, outlining Jabal's standard orc face, strong and strong, handsome among orcs, but for those female orcs, forget it.

"In three days, we'll be separated here, and then I can have that wood elf go north with you to rescue the dwarves. ”

After Rafael left, Aishara approached Abdul-Jabbar, carrying what looked like a cane. This old man has the wisdom and appearance of an old man, but sometimes he also has the mind of a young man, and Abdul-Jabbar still hasn't understood him, wizards are complicated and not easy to see.

"You mean, you told Itrieg that you were talking about this when you met Raphael alone?"

"Well, what's not to do?"

Aishara replied and turned her head, looking at Abdul-Jabbar with a seemingly innocent look, a bit of an old naughty boy.

"Nope. ”

"Well, how can this matter be solved?"

For the first time since traveling to another world, Abdul-Jabbar felt so helpless that he had to ask about the people who were born and raised in this world. Although they may think and answer from the perspective of this world's unique perspective, Abdul-Jabbar's heart is really confused at the moment, and it doesn't hurt to listen.

"Do you want to hear the truth or lie?"

Faced with Jabbar's doubts, Aishara continued to ask unhurriedly.

"Honestly. ”

"Alright, Abdul-Jabbar. Actually, I'm not optimistic about the two of you, not only in terms of race, but also in terms of background, or the current situation, it is even more difficult for you to live with that wood elf. ”

"I know all of that. ”

It's actually a bunch of nonsense, and for Abdul-Jabbar, he knew about these difficulties half a year ago, even when he first wanted to soak this elf girl. So Aishara's first answer didn't surprise Jabbar too much, and he just continued to be disheartened.

"But Abdul-Jabbar, I have seen countless marriages, weddings between human nobles and nobles, weddings between elves and humans, and two people who seem to be suitable for others are not necessarily happy for a long time. Some of them were born in the palace, and some were born into elven families, but the more they are together for status and interests, they often turn against each other within a few years, so. ”

"So what?"

The archmage's answer finally gave Jabbar a glimmer of hope, but in his heart, Jabbar knew that this was just hope, and it still took his own efforts to really be with the elf girl.

"So if your heart is true, follow your heart, in this world, everyone has their own destiny, whether it is a human, an elf, an orc, a dwarf. They all have their own destiny, and this invisible and powerful hand of fate is irresistible, and sometimes, when I feel it, I feel that it is so powerful and irresistible. So, sometimes, what seems bad may end up being good. ”

Aishara said, a smile on her lips that Jabbar thought was a bitter smile that had gone through the vicissitudes of life.

"Azara, do you believe in fate?"

"Yes, I have lived in this world for more than 500 years, and I have witnessed countless joys and sorrows. One day you will understand. ”

As soon as the old wizard finished speaking, Abdul-Jabbar suddenly felt that there was a generation gap between himself and this old man, more than five hundred years old, how many things had happened during this period, no wonder he knew everything, well, fortunately, this thing is a good person, otherwise this world pill.
