Chapter 16: The End of the Warcraft Incident
Dizziness, this is Jotaro's first feeling when he wakes up, without opening his eyes, Jotaro vaguely feels that his hands are each grasped by a delicate little hand, and his fingers are interlocked.
[It's Sylvie.] Jotaro felt that it was Sylvie who grabbed his left hand, after all, this hand is so slender that it doesn't seem to be like words, and the whole palm seems to have only bones, so the right hand should be Rem, right?
Jotaro opened his eyes, and they were blurry, but from the figures beside the bed, he could tell that it was Sylvie and Rem. After seeing Jotaro open his eyes, Sylvie and Rem's originally worried expressions softened suddenly, and said in surprise, "Ni-chan (Mr. Jotaro) You finally woke up." ”
"Hmm," Jotaro reluctantly sat up from the bed as he felt his voice, but a sharp pain in his soul almost knocked him unconscious again.
"Hmm!" This labor pain made Jotaro, who had just sat up, subconsciously cover his head, but the pain did not lessen much.
"Ni-chan (Mr. Jotaro)!" "Whew, it's okay, ignore me!" Jotaro's resolute face was twisted in pain, and he gasped slightly and stopped at the two women.
Jotaro understands that this is because of the sequelae left by his continuous use of the "world" in a short period of time, and he remembers that he stopped last night for the last time, and he couldn't even attack the demonic beast that pounced on Rem, so he could only barely push Rem away.
But in just a few breaths, Jotaro couldn't stand the burden on his body caused by the forcible use, and the mental backlash injury also made him faint in an instant.
Seeing Jotaro looking at the coat rack, Sylvi hurriedly took off the hat hanging on it and handed it to Jotaro, for so many days, she found that her master valued hats very much, and never took them off except for sleeping and cooking, [hats must have a special meaning for him.] Sylvie thought.
Jotaro took the hat and put it on his head, and with the attribute bonus of the four white Cheng suits returning to Jotaro, the headache and dizziness were immediately improved, at least the pain was within the acceptable range.
"Thank you, Sylvie, for having a heart." Jotaro's expression softened a lot at once, and his breathing calmed down.
"It's okay, that's what Sylvie should do." Sylvie said happily because of Jotaro's improved health, or because she had helped out.
Jotaro turned his head and looked at Reem, who was still holding his hand, and asked, "You weren't injured last night, were you?" What happens after I pass out? Rem shook her head, "No, I wasn't injured last night, thank you very much, Mr. Jotaro." ”
Jotaro waved his hand and said calmly: "Don't thank me, this is just a normal thing that a normal person would do, after all, I can't see death without help." ”
"After you passed out yesterday, Rem and Subaru searched for a long time in the neighborhood and couldn't find the child, so we brought you back first. Mistress Beatrice has also repaired the barrier, and the children are well recovering well. ”
"It seems that all this is premeditated, the kid I can't see is very likely to be the Warcraft Envoy, she is setting up this game, otherwise why did Rozval just go out on the front foot, and this kind of thing happened to the back foot?" Jotaro sat up straight on the bed and said in a tone that couldn't be heard.
"Really, really?" Rem was taken aback, after all, what Jotaro said was so shocking, although it sounded a little absurd, but in light of the current situation, it seemed to be the root of this matter.
"I think this should be the only possibility, after all, as soon as Rozval went out, his house was attacked, even if it was a coincidence, but it was too coincidental." Jotaro paused and continued, "It's impossible for them not to know that this is the Mezas family, that is, the goal of this group of people is ......"
"Mistress Amilia!" Now that things have come to this point, Rem also understands at once that this is an attack on Emilia, and it is also a temptation.
"People who can drive away demonic beasts, this kind of method, what can't be wrong, it's the devil, the woman, the teaching!" Reem's expression was complicated, and when he said the last few words, he was even more word-by-word, with a bit of anger and murderous intent in his big blue eyes.
"Ah, I'm sorry, Rem lost her temper." Rem quickly came to her senses and apologized to Jotaro. Jotaro said indifferently, "It's okay. ”
"By the way, Mr. Jotaro, Rem has something to talk to you about." Rem said, and also looked at Sylvie on the other side of the bed, Sylvi was stunned, and then saw Rem with a serious expression, nodded in understanding.
After Sylvie left, Rem lowered her head, as if she was talking to Jotaro, and as if she was saying to herself: "Why, why save me, it's clear that Rem is just the most inferior substitute for her sister." ”
Listening to Rem's inexplicable words, Jotaro pressed his hat, he now regrets a little bit that he didn't watch the anime seriously before, but now it's okay. Jotaro swears that when he watches anime in the future, he will never use the Crimson King again, if there is still a chance.
"What are you talking about? As I said earlier, I can't save others from death, I just follow my heart's will to save you. ”
"Last night Mistress Beatrice said that your soul was so badly injured by forcibly stopping time that you may never wake up, even then, do you have to save Rem?" Rem looked up at Jotaro with tears in her eyes and asked in a trembling voice.
Rem won't forget that when she and Razuki finally sent Jotaro back last night, Emilia and Silvie panicked, after all, Jotaro's eyes were closed, his nosebleeds were flowing, and blood was constantly spilling from the corners of his mouth.
After Emilia healed Jotaro's injury, Betty pulled Rem to the forbidden library with an extremely gloomy face, and said to Rem in an unusually cold tone: "Jotaro can stop time, and only he can move in the time that has been stopped,"
"It's a little strange to say that time has stopped, but Jotaro seems to be able to stop time for a second or two. However, such a powerful effect, whether it is magic or something else,"
"There should be a limit, Jotaro is obvious, it is a forcible use of this ability, either the number of times, or the interval, in short, his spirit has been very seriously injured because of the backlash, and it is very likely that he will never wake up again, in this regard, Betty can only try to rely on some magic to calm his mind, whether he can wake up or not depends on himself."
Jotaro took out a handkerchief from his coat pocket and gently wiped the tears from Rem's face: "I can't watch a living life disappear before my eyes like that, as for you saying that you are a substitute for Ram?" I don't think so. ”
"Huh?" Rem looked at Jotaro suspiciously, the corners of Jotaro's mouth rose slightly, and he said in a relaxed tone: "Because of some of my special methods, I know a little bit about the past things of you two sisters,"
"Ram is indeed talented, yes, but you don't have to blame yourself like this, Ram's horn being cut off has nothing to do with you at all, does it? And whether it's cooking or housekeeping, you're better at than Ram, aren't you? ”
Jotaro saw that Rem seemed to want to say something, and interrupted her mercilessly: "You don't have to say anything Ram would do better if she had horns, because even if she has horns, she is not as good as you, and her talent I don't think is at all in housekeeping." ”
"You say you are a substitute for Ram, but have you ever thought that you yourself are irreplaceable? You are you, Ram is Ram, each has its own merits, why do you insist on mixing them up? Wouldn't you just be yourself? Be that irreplaceable Rem. ”
Rem listened blankly, for a long time, the corners of her mouth rose, and tears flowed down Reem's face without hindrance.
Rem smiled, heartily, she hadn't laughed so happily in a long time, the last time it was when she was a child, before that night.
"Thank you, Jotaro, thank you so much." Rem smiled and wiped her tears with her hand, "I'll try to be my own, Jotaro." "Then I'll wait and see......"
