5. Missing parts

Children are very difficult to coax, even Frey, who is asleep, as if she remembers what she said before, she tuggs at Lilith's clothes with her hands to prevent her from leaving, and mutters something that Lilith does not understand at all. x.

This was the first time Lilith had seen the dean's sleeping appearance, but it seemed to be really good. Lilith really couldn't get out, so she had to blow out the light next to her and lie down next to Frey with her clothes.

Probably relieved, Frey soon let out even breathing, but Lilith seemed to have some difficulty sleeping.

Sometimes she even wonders if this "past" she is in is real, the past when the dean was five years old, because at this time, the dean has no interest in astrology at all, on the contrary, this topic will even make her fall asleep immediately. However, the dean should have had a fanatical love for stars since he was a child, and he was even able to forget the time around him.

Could it be that you recognize the wrong person?

But the little girl named Frey, who looks so much like the dean, can no doubt be the dean.

Or, the dean's love for the stars originated from an opportunity he encountered at some time when he was a child, but he is completely unclear who gave this opportunity and when it was given.

Not only is it not clear, but he doesn't belong to this world now, if this opportunity is affected because of himself, then the dean in his original world must have already become a box of ashes.

No one will remember her except herself, because she did not become an astrologer. It's just a little princess who doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking.

Thing. Looks like it's getting troublesome.

【Squeak】

Accompanied by a screeching grinding sound. The door seemed to have been gently opened by someone in a clumsy way, and subconsciously, Lilith hurriedly closed her eyes.

"Frey, Frey?"

Rena called softly from the door, but it was certainly not to wake Frey from her sleep, but only to make sure she was asleep.

"Alice?"

Seeing that Frey was already asleep, Rena naturally placed the second object on Lilith's body. "Alice, are you still awake?"

β€œ......”

Presumably sure they were both asleep, Rena quickly closed the door.

There's no reason why Rena would come in the middle of the night to make sure she's asleep, and why she's doing it......

"I've been waiting. ”

Sure enough, when Lilith floated on the roof with her magic, Rena's voice was heard from the upper floor through a wall. Rena probably never thought that directly below her room was Frey's bedroom.

"Why did you come late at night, shouldn't you come to disturb my life?"

"It was because we didn't bother that we chose to come in the evening. ”

A fuzzy female voice. But Lilith thought she could hear clearly. I can't be sure of the identity of this woman, after all, this is the past, how can there be someone who knows me in a time that does not belong to me.

"Frey, is she asleep? ”

"Don't you want to hit my daughter!"

Rena's voice seemed to grow angry, "We made a pact that I would only take your money and make what you want, and this matter has nothing to do with my daughter, witch!"

Witch!?

Which witch!?Who was a witch when Frey was five years old!?

Lilith almost pressed her face against the wall, and the rest of her words, she didn't want to miss a single syllable.

"But you're too slow to do it Rena. ”

The woman, whom Rena called a "witch," said, "And didn't I say that there should not be too many people in your house, but even if I stand here today, I can know that there is another person 'sleeping' next to your daughter?"

"This ...... She was innocent, just the one who came to accompany my daughter. ”

Rena's voice was a little flustered, but it was Lilith who was more nervous in comparison.

The "witch" just now bit the word "sleep" very hard, does it mean that she not only knows her own existence, but also knows that she is eavesdropping now?

...... It should be an illusion, obviously here now, there is no sign of the slightest magic power, how can it be possible to judge what is happening in this house?

"Anyway, come on, Rena, I didn't let you squander my money like this, and if you haven't done it the next time I come back, then I'm sorry. You can keep your mouth shut, but I want to keep you shut up in the safest way. ”

The sounds from upstairs quickly died down, and Lilith fell from the roof after the hall door was closed again.

Judging from the conversation just now, Rena must be doing some kind of alchemy for the "witch" she called her, and it seems that she is using the other party's money to conduct research, which is not difficult to explain why Rena is alone, but she can live in such a big room with Frey.

And it seems that this deal is not equal, it seems that Rena should be a little forced to conduct research, and after failure, the other party's punishment is probably very terrifying. Rena doesn't look like a magician, and she has to add her daughter, Frey......

Such a woman is the most vulnerable to threat.

The biggest problem is the witch...... Who the hell is she!? Why, she seems to be ......

Catch up?

Lilith hurried to the window, and by the moonlight outside, she could barely see a dark shadow moving unhurriedly, it was the guy, and it seemed that he was wearing a cloak to hide his eyes.

......

"Woo......"

The same headache as before, this is the third time I have felt a headache.

That's right, this kind of headache must be your body itself, or the world is reminding you not to catch up. It told itself that it was time to dispel its worries and go back to sleep with Frey, instead of going through the window and looking at the dark shadow.

But......

"You can do it. ”

Holding back the irritation of increasing pain, Lilith opened the window with all her might, and the cold wind pouring in from the outside suddenly cleared her mind a lot.

The woman in the cloak had already gone farther and farther, and if she couldn't catch up immediately, it would be pointless to hesitate and act.

I can't stop, I have to catch up, even if the headache is telling me that this is a violation of the rules of this world, but I have a reason to go no matter what, because, that person......

It's so familiar.

"Where ......"

After rolling out the window, the headache returned as if it had been regrouped, and almost to the point of fainting, despite this, Lilith searched for the woman in the night.

It won't be wrong, after seeing that woman again, even if it is the back, even if it is just a vague black shadow, I can feel the throbbing in my heart, which is completely different from the pain......

What kind of emotion is that...... Lilith suddenly found that she had no way to describe the feelings in her heart.

No, it should be said, I don't know at all. It's like this part of the emotion was missing from the beginning, and when I think of this, all that comes to mind is a blank space.

That's right, I'm very smart, although it's just my own idea, but, I do have such capital, and now I'm already proficient in all kinds of magic, although I can't reach the second sister Lisi's Cheng dΓΉ, but it's already a height that ordinary magicians can't reach.

I have also learned to observe other people's thoughts from the eyes, the eyes are the windows of the human soul, and I have a hammer in my hand, even if the other party closes the window, I can break it, and then observe what kind of feelings are hidden inside.

He also loved Lucifer, and even though he was often only the one who was protected, he still gave them love as the object of their service. Your own life is the most important thing, although this sentence is ugly, but it is understandable. Therefore, I put their safety second.

However, the only thing I didn't have, and I suddenly remembered it at this time, and what I suddenly realized was as far away as an untouchable shore. I haven't experienced it, no, maybe I've experienced it, but I've been selectively forgotten by myself.

And the back that loomed in the distance gave himself such an impact.

"Wait!"

Lilith shouted as hard as she could, the headache had tormented her a little delirious, and she could no longer consider the other party's position, if she didn't stop her here, if she lost to the headache here, then she would probably never be able to understand the missing part of herself.

That's the feeling that a person should have, and ...... No, so, I really can't, be considered human.

That kind of feeling...... Isn't that ...... (To be continued......)
