Chapter 284: Cute, Cunning
Same opening statement, same words.
Elysée confirmed.
The inner turmoil is soothed.
It's him, and there's no going wrong.
They promised each other goodbye.
I just didn't expect that such a goodbye would pass for so long.
She had been waiting for a long, long time, alone.
So the girl ran as fast as she could, stretched out her hand and hugged her, holding it firmly, for fear that she would never touch it again if she let go of her hand.
She pushed so hard that Bai Yu was about to be squeezed out of a few gray mist.
He reached out and stroked Elyse's hair.
For him, it was only a day or two since the two sides disappeared.
But for Elyser, nearly a decade has passed.
In fact, the two sides should be a little strange.
It is normal for Bai Yu to think so, although the two sides have met for the second time, they have only been together for less than a day in the past, even if there is kindness, it should not be so profound.
And he knew that his kindness to Elysée was not so great.
Whether she interferes or not, she will also be rescued by the Gorgon sisters, and at most she will suffer some hardship.
And that experience would make for an even stronger Elyse.
Perhaps it was because of her own interference in the past that Elysée did not have such a tenacious spirit and lacked crucial experience, making her not as strong as the gorgons before the weaving of fate began.
Or is it because she regards the promise of goodbye as a promise that must be fulfilled, and even regards the only self that takes care of her as a pillar of her soul?
If so......
She has really had a hard time all these years.
So much so that I had to rely on the beauty of the past to support myself.
It is precisely because of the loss of everything that I will regain from my memory the agreement with the man who has only been in contact with each other and regard it as a treasure.
The current situation was not Bai Yu's original intention, he would rather see the other party as a friend he hadn't seen for a long time, rather than such an attitude.
Such a dependent attitude is not conducive to her own growth.
Even Amamiya Masahiro, who has been with him for the longest time, did not dare to hug him at the second meeting.
He stroked the girl's hair and gently patted her on the back, motioning for her to calm down.
I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere.
Elyse opened her hand lightly, this long-lost sense of reliance soothed her mood, as if the tight rope had been relaxed, she even lost some strength, and her body unconsciously fell to the ground.
She wanted to move, but her body didn't have the strength.
Or maybe it's an instinctive reluctance to move.
She said weakly, "I'm sorry, I'm a little ...... Detachment. ”
"You really should sit and rest for a while." Bai Yu looked left and right and helped her up, but she really didn't even have the strength to walk, so she could only wrap her right hand around the crook of her arm and pick her up.
Elyse's eyes fluctuated slightly.
"Why do you think so of me?"
"On the snowy field, my uncle is holding me like this, right?" Elysée whispered, "I don't remember, but I think it should be." ”
"Yes, you were a little girl, very light and thin." The young man remembers very well what happened not long ago: "Now she is a big girl. ”
Placing the girl on the bench, Bai Yu sighed that the power of time can really change everything: "You have grown up, Elyse. ”
Elyse chewed on the emotion in this sentence, but did not feel more, like an exclamation when an old friend said goodbye, without much heaviness and not much meaning.
She looked back at the young man and whispered, "Uncle, nothing has changed. ”
Bai Yu said incomprehensibly: "Time doesn't mean much to me, whether it's going down the river or upstream. ”
He raised his hand, casually conjured a bottle of water, and handed it to Elyse's hand.
"Drink some, you can regain your strength."
Elyse opened her eyes, then opened her mouth to indicate that she could feed.
Bai Yu looked helpless: "It's already a big girl, don't be coquettish." ”
Elyse's cheeks flushed slightly, she was not bold enough to give it a try, picked up the water bottle, took a sip of it, and then felt her fatigue disappear quickly.
Fatigue potion, a favorite of the Poisoned Milk Warriors.
"It's amazing...... Elyse stroked the bottle, "and the fatigue is gone." ”
She raised her lilac eyes, looked at Bai Yu curiously, and caressed the wall of the bottle with her fingers.
As the promise was fulfilled and the emotion of the encounter was gradually digested, then one question after another followed.
She is a smart girl, and she has obviously clearly realized that Bai Yu's identity is by no means simple, and everything about him is a mystery.
Mysterious appearance, mysterious disappearance, including which magic book was given to you, and this bottle of potion that can drive away fatigue......
"I know you must have a lot of questions to ask." Bai Yu didn't wait for her to ask a question before taking the initiative to speak: "I can tell you about this slowly, just like the original promise, I will tell you who I am, where I come from, and what I want to do." ”
Elyse immediately sat down dignified and listened attentively.
She had been taught by her sister, the only education she had received from her loved ones.
Bai Yu put his hands on his knees and introduced himself in a homely tone: "To put it simply, my name is 'Destiny Editor', and I am a ...... Well, the one who can rewrite fate. ”
"I will pick out some people who are destined for me in the long course of time and help them rewrite their destiny."
Elyse captures the key word: "Destiny...... Is it? ”
She raised her eyes and asked without wavering: "So, do you know what my fate will be?" ”
"Yes, you will die, at the hands of your best friend for revenge." Bai Yu directly turned on the spoiler mode, but all he knew was the ending.
"When I was a child, I met a slave catcher, was it also fate?"
"Not bad." Bai Yu nodded.
Elyse suddenly realized: "That's why my uncle found me in the snowfield, rescued me, and left me in the village...... Because that's what fate would have been. ”
"Fate is delicate, but occasionally it can be very stubborn." Bai Yu said: "I can save you in the hands of the slave hunting group and prevent you from encountering more disasters, but I can't easily change your fundamental fate, otherwise everything will cease to exist." ”
Elyse stared at the young man with clear eyes and whispered, "So, are you apologizing to me?" Apologize to me for fear that I will blame you for not intervening to save my mother? ”
Bai Yu smiled: "You are very sharp. ”
If there is a way to change, he will definitely try, but unfortunately his current strength does not allow it, he can't shake this fate and cause and effect involving the essence of the existence of the Gorgon, otherwise his fate will be completely distorted.
Elysée smiled too, she smiled very cutely and relieved.
"I've never thought of it that way."
"Uncle is a good person, the fault is those bad people, not uncle."
"You who will feel guilty because of this incident are really a gentle and good person."
She leaned lightly on the other's shoulder and whispered, "Exactly as I thought......"
Now she is very relieved.
No matter how mysterious, deliberately concealed, or for an ulterior purpose, she didn't really care about that.
Deceive and deceive, hide and hide, she really needs someone to support her broken and broken heart, share the secrets that are about to crush her, and sharpen her to achieve that goal of revenge.
For this, she can do whatever it takes.
Whether the other party is a Destiny Editor or a demon Satan, as long as she gives herself to get what she wants, she will not hesitate.
Bai Yu continued to expand the topic: "In the future, I will continue to pay attention to the development of your side, and you can also do what you want to do at your own pace, whether it is taking classes or looking for banned books...... The only difference, though, is that we need to explore areas in common. ”
"Zone?" Elysée asked curiously, "Is it hell?" ”
"It's similar." Bai Yu nodded: "You will naturally be clear after that." ”
He paused for a second, wondering whether he should tell the news that 'we have another companion'.
He always felt that now was not the time to mention this matter, or he should leave this matter for later, anyway, Amamiya Masahiro already knew.
Just as he was thinking, his figure was illusory for a second, and gradually turned into a gray mist from the left side.
"Looks like my time is up." Bai Yu looked at the faded palm.
"Are you leaving?" Elysée immediately tensed, and she tried to grab the other, but all her palm touched was a gray mist of nothingness.
"I still have some things to say, but I should also go, I can't stay in this plane for too long, and it will be troublesome if I am noticed." Bai Yu touched her long night hair: "Don't worry, we'll see you again soon." ”
"But, but......" she pursed her lips, her eyes full of reluctance.
It's like a kitten that is only in the rain under the eaves, just picked up and hasn't enjoyed a few seconds of warmth, and the next moment he finds himself thrown back into the rain.
The meow of the little milk cat meows is weak and cute.
You're not a kitten, you've grown up.
But sooner or later, the snake-haired witch who will step into the fifth order, a strong person who can wrestle with the blood of the Heroic Spirit.
When you're strong, I'll hold your thighs in the future.
Bai Yu's gaze at this attachment was very indifferent, and he had to admit that his love was too overflowing, although it was not as outrageous as the Great Love Immortal Venerable.
He could only repeat his assurance, but even that could not dispel the uneasiness in her eyes.
So after a moment of hesitation, a second before disappearing, he gently hugged the girl and dissipated into a gray mist.
Elyse sat on the bench, slowly hugging a cloud of air, the residual touch was still there, she seemed to embrace the blue sky and the sun.
I closed my eyes and felt it for a while, then opened it again.
The uneasiness in his eyes seemed to be absent from the beginning.
Bai Yu read that right, she is not a kitten in the rain, but a changeable snake.
The necessary performance is also needed, in order to keep him for one more second and feel coquettish for a while, she doesn't mind using some cunning routines.
This is also thanks to the many live demonstrations and words and deeds of her two good roommates.
Elysée stood up, her eyes firm, taking a deep breath and chuckling lightly.
"It's a nice day—"
