Chapter 157: Birthday
Looking at the frightened and angry red-haired girl in front of her, An Ling was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help but reach out and pinch her tender white little face.
"Huh?"
Talia froze, her cheeks visibly reddening.
An Ling was also a little stunned, wondering why he suddenly wanted to make this little action in his heart.
Probably just for fun?
"Alas~ You're going, I don't have time to play with you now."
Talia shyly pulled away An Ling's hand, looking a little helpless.
An Ling came back to her senses, blinked her eyes, and asked her, "What are you secretly doing?"
"I..."
Talia was momentarily speechless.
She looked around like a thief again, and then took An Ling's hand and whispered: "I'm making a hairpin, don't tell others." β
An Ling's eyes moved, and he saw that there was a delicate but unfinished ruby hairpin in Talia's hand.
"Why do you need to be so secretive to make a hairpin?"
An Ling asked puzzled.
There was a tangled expression on Talia's face, and after hesitating for a while, he said to An Ling:
"Tomorrow is Maggie's birthday, and I want to give her a hairpin I made myself as a birthday present."
"Birthday?"
An Ling was still puzzled and full of unfamiliarity with the word.
"Does the adventurer still have a birthday?"
Adventurers are people who have almost given up their normal lives, and birthday celebrations shouldn't exist in their lives.
For example, now, in this dangerous and harsh forest, it is a bit of a luxury to talk about celebrating birthdays or something.
What's more, An Ling is a demon who crawled out of the abyss, and the word birthday is even more distant to him. Even as far away as light years......
However, after hearing the word birthday, An Ling's heart was inexplicably throbbing, and the memories from his previous life that were already extremely distant, only fragmented, and extremely vague suddenly flashed through his mind. @Β·error-free start~~
"We adventurers shouldn't have birthdays, but Maggie is different......"
As Anling was in a daze, Talia began to explain the reason softly.
"As you know, Maggie used to be a royal princess. In the past, birthdays were always the happiest time for Maggie. β
"Over the years, we've been running around on adventures, but every time on her birthday, I can always see her crying secretly at night by herself."
"So, I want to give her a birthday present this time, which can be regarded as a celebration of her birthday, to make her feel better."
"Anling?"
An Ling came back to his senses in a trance, looked at Thalia for a second, and then pulled a sunny and cheerful smile on his face, and said: "Talia, since we are going to celebrate her birthday, let's make things bigger, how about holding a birthday party for Maggie?"
I don't know why, An Ling suddenly wanted to eat cake.
He hasn't eaten a big cake since he returned to the world. And just took advantage of this incident to take out the Holy Grail of the Stars and give everyone a magic sublimation.
"Huh?"
Talia's eyes widened, and then he quickly hammered An Ling, and said angrily: "Don't mess around! Maggie knew you were going to do it, and she would definitely refuse. β
"She doesn't want to be special among us, you're only going to embarrass her by doing that!"
"What does it matter, it's a big deal that we just want to be subtle."
The corners of An Ling's mouth curled, and he took Talia's hand.
"Come, follow me."
Talia was dragged all the way to the campfire camp by An Ling, and raised her right hand in front of everyone.
"Hey! Everyone, Talia and I suddenly had an idea. How about we have a bonfire tomorrow?"
"Take out all the food in your pocket! Make a big cake, a lot of delicious and delicious food, everyone relax and have fun!"
As soon as these words came out, almost everyone was stunned, and everyone looked at An Ling with strange eyes.
Maggie frowned suspiciously and looked at An Ling for a while, then turned her eyes to Talia and asked, "Talia, is this your idea?"
Talia's expression froze suddenly, and he smiled dryly: "It's not mine!" But ......"
γ
"But I think we've been adventurous for so long, wouldn't it be nice to have a dinner party and relax? Haha~"
Maggie suddenly frowned again, sighed speechlessly, and said, "No, I don't agree." Where can you do this kind of thing on the way on your adventure now......"
"Wait a minute!"
Sheena suddenly spoke.
I saw that she said with a weak but appraisal expression: "I also think that something is needed to adjust everyone's mood, and I agree with An Ling's proposal."
The look of helplessness on Maggie's face became heavier, and she turned her head to look at Amy.
Amy glanced up at everyone, pondered for a while, lowered her head and whispered:
"I agree to the offer, I'm also feeling a little tired and need to relax mentally."
Seeing that Amy, who is usually the most pragmatic, said so.
Maggie was stunned for a while, and could only cry and laugh and said, "Okay, since everyone says so, let's find a chance to have a happy dinner party and relax." β
In her eyes, this dinner party is completely nonsensical and unnecessary.
Now concentrating on getting out of this wilderness is what the adventure group has to do.
But since this is everyone's opinion, she can't veto it.
"But! Tomorrow and tomorrow are in preparation, and today we will still hurry up and try to get out of this mountain range and go to the big forest in front of us. β
Maggie added.
"Okay."
An Ling replied with a smile.
In the clear afternoon, after a short lunch break, the adventure group continued its journey. _o_m
It was not easy to get out of the mountains and into the big forest ahead, and everyone was a little hurried.
An Ling carried Annis, who was still listless, and walked at the back of the line.
At this moment, Sheena suddenly came to An Ling's side and gave Annis on his back a sip of water.
"Lady Annis, can we talk?"
Annis's eyes moved, but she didn't speak.
Hina was helpless, and continued:
"Lady Annis, as a member of the Adventure Party, I only need to keep you safe and don't need to care about your mental state."
"But as a priest of light, spreading for the goddess, it is not possible to go on like this."
"Lady Annis, what's wrong with you?"
An Ling also smiled and said, "Lady Anise, Sheena is a very gentle priest. Surely she will be able to relieve your pain. β
A glimmer finally appeared in Annesmuna's eyes, and she looked at Sheena slowly, and whispered in a hoarse voice:
"I... I'm at a loss right now, I..."
Mixed emotional tastes wafted out of Annis's body, and in the following narrative, An Ling understood the reason why Annis was so depressed.
