Chapter VII: Acceptance
“……”
Looking at the girl in front of him, Levi couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
When they met for the first time, the girl was like a divine soldier descending from the sky, clearing the field with a sword, and even Yard, who was a four-star knight, did not dare to touch its edge.
That scene left a deep impression on Levi.
Originally, he felt that this witch of the night should be an existence like an invincible goddess, as holy as the flower of Kaolin, and could not be desecrated.
But now, looking at Lilith sitting on the ground in a duck sitting position, Levi felt that such a Lilith seemed to be good......
After a moment of distraction, he stood up, took Lilith's hand, and pulled her up.
After pulling him up, he was a little surprised to find that the girl didn't seem to have any strength at all, and it was hard to even stand, so he simply let her sit in his chair.
"What's wrong with you, what's wrong?"
Looking at Lilith's not quite right look, Levi frowned.
Lilith shook her head: "It's okay, it's just that I forcibly cut off the energy channel just now, and I was a little impacted." ”
"If nothing else, you should just rest for a while."
Hearing this, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
His biggest reliance now is the girl in front of him, and if something goes wrong with the latter, his plans will be greatly affected.
"Pollution...... How's it going? ”
Levi asked what he was most concerned about right now.
Hearing this, Lilith was slightly stunned.
She had been worried about Levi's accident just now, and she didn't have time to confirm her status.
At this time, she was asked by Levi before she reacted.
Lilith closed her eyes and quickly checked the contamination in her soul.
After a few seconds, she opened her eyes in surprise.
Looking at Levi, who looked at her with an expectant look in front of her, Lilith opened her mouth, as if she couldn't believe it.
"Pollution...... Reduced. ”
"Probably, a decrease of one-fiftieth ......"
The moment she said this number, her night sky-like eyes couldn't help but surge with mist.
"It worked, it really worked...... The Witch's pollution is finally reduced by a way......"
The girl's voice trembled a little uncontrollably.
Even in the face of a pollution monster tens of meters high and like a hill, she has never wavered.
But at this moment, she couldn't help but feel like crying.
Soul pollution, like the curse of the tarsal bones, brings the deepest despair to the witches.
From the day they awakened their powers and were co-opted by the Witch Executive Bureau, the witches were sentenced to death.
In three or four years at the shortest, six or seven years at most, their lives will come to an end.
Generations of witches have tried their best to break this curse, but in the end none of them succeeded.
Lilith had accepted her fate and was ready to face death peacefully.
Unexpectedly, at the darkest moment of fate, a beam of light shone down and completely changed her life.
The girl looked at Levi.
I saw that the latter's eyes widened with a ghostly expression.
"One in fifty? I was so polluted that I almost lost all of my people, and I ended up absorbing one-fiftieth of it? ”
"You're the Witch of the Night, you're the Witch of the Dye Vat!"
Lilith: "? ”
The girl narrowed her eyes and was about to say something, but Levi was suddenly stunned.
"That's not right...... This is a good thing, judging from the current situation of the silver collar, it is basically useless to replenish the new witch, and if you want to absorb pollution, you can only count on this one. ”
"In this way, if you can eat a few more times, you can strengthen it a few more times."
"No loss, no loss!"
As he chattered, Levi smiled with satisfaction.
Lilith couldn't understand what Levi was talking about, what reinforcements, what was not a loss, where was it?
She looked Levi up and down, and said with some concern, "How are you now?" I've accumulated too much pollution, and even though it's only one-fiftieth of it, it should be enough to pollute the entire Silver Collar...... You've absorbed so much pollution, is your body really okay? ”
Hearing this, Levi looked at her and smiled with interest.
"I thought you were the type of person who doesn't talk much, but I didn't expect to be able to say so much."
Lilith: "......"
This man, what the hell is going on.
I talked to him about such a serious topic, why did he still gag?
Seeing Lilith frowning, Levi quickly coughed.
"At least it's okay now, and we'll have to wait and see what happens in the future."
Lilith nodded.
This kind of major event really cannot be easily judged, and only by observing and sorting out more information can we come up with a more accurate answer.
Levi thought for a while: "It will take me about a week to digest the pollution absorbed this time, and the next experiment will be set in eight days, so as to save a day to get rich, so as not to have any accidents." ”
Hearing this, Lilith was stunned.
"Wait, you mean, your ability to absorb pollution, can you use it multiple times?"
The girl's eyes were full of consternation, if it weren't for the lack of strength in her body, she would probably be able to stand up directly.
"Isn't this a matter of course, if you can only absorb it once, what kind of cooperation will it talk about, at best, it will give you a month of life...... You don't think that in a month or two, the minister will let me go. ”
Levi shook his head amusedly.
When Lilith was surprised and unable to extricate himself, he walked across the table, moved a chair, and sat down across from Lilith.
"Ms. Lilith, since the pollution has been reduced, you should have no problem using your power now, right?"
"Ah...... Well, yes. ”
Lilith came back to her senses from her surprise and nodded, "As long as I don't encounter a battle that is too intense, I should be able to use my strength a dozen times by now." ”
"A dozen times...... A little little, but ok. ”
Levi estimated that he would be able to digest the absorbed contamination in about a week.
In a week, I can fight more than a dozen times, which is enough.
"I'm content to get a little respite."
Compared to when she first came to this room, Lilith's gaze was much softer at this time.
Levi nodded and said, "I understand, just like when there are only a few tens of megabytes left in the C drive, even if only one or two G's are freed up, it can make people feel a lot more at ease." ”
Lilith: "......"
She couldn't understand what the man was saying again.
"In that case, my abilities have been shown to you, so let's continue with the conversation at the beginning."
"Lady Lilith, what are you going to choose?"
"Do you want to help me, to be my strength?"
Looking at Levi, Lilith seemed to have made up her mind.
She stood up and walked over to Levi.
Then, get down on one knee.
"I, Lilith, Witch of the Night, swear by this."
"I will be your strength and ...... for you Loyalty! ”
"No matter how dangerous and difficult the road ahead is, I will never regret my decision today!"
