Chapter 3504 Obsession

On the motorcycle, after an inexplicable silence, Heloise asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Why, why?"

Judging from her reaction, she should be worried about Xi Lan's delay in marrying her.

It’s no wonder that a girl, especially a girl like her who is in urgent need of external support, is eager and eager for a marriage that can bring her strength, power and status. However, the man not only does not express his opinion, but also keeps avoiding it. If the woman has no resentment in all this, that would be abnormal.

I smiled and said, "Don't think so wildly. It's not that you're not good enough. On the contrary, it's because you're too motivated that Xi Lan refuses to face you."

"Because I am motivated?" Heloise said unconvinced: "Isn't it bad to be motivated? Is it necessary to be like him, drinking as much as he can every day and living a life that is almost self-destructive?"

Hearing the resentment in Heloise's words, I smiled and said, "Don't worry, just listen to my explanation."

Taking a deep breath, Heloise calmed down and sat quietly in the passenger seat, silently listening to my explanation.

"Actually, Xilan doesn't care how high your status is or whether you have a strong ambition. What he really cares about is the people you associate with."

"The person I'm dating?" Heloise asked doubtfully, "What does this have to do with him?"

"It's a big relationship," I said, "I wonder if you know what kind of people Xi Lan likes to be in contact with?"

"What kind of person?" Heloise tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Adventurers? Alcoholic adventurers? Alcoholic adventurers who are pretty good?"

"." I couldn't help but feel ashamed: "Is it possible that, in your eyes, Xilan is just a loser and an alcoholic uncle?"

"Isn't it?" Heloise asked.

"Then why are you in such a hurry to marry him?"

"Because by marrying him, I can secure my position in the Oathkeepers organization." At this point, Heloise paused, turned her head, looked at me with resentful eyes, and said, "I would like to I’m marrying a young, promising and motivated adventurer like you, but you just don’t like me.”

"I didn't say that I don't like you, it's just that I have a fiancée in Zephyr Continent, and you don't want to leave the demon world. Long-distance relationships are very hard, so I decided not to fall in love with you. This is different from liking you. It has nothing to do with it.”

"Also, don't push the issue in other directions. When discussing an issue, take it seriously!"

"Yes - yes -" Heloise replied slightly impatiently.

"Actually, you really misunderstood Xi Lan. According to my understanding of Xi Lan, he doesn't like to associate with decadent people. Therefore, what you said about the so-called alcoholic adventurer is actually not accurate. Xi Lan really likes The person I am dating is an adventurer with a bold personality. If his strength can meet the standard, Xi Lan will regard him as a good friend."

"So, Xi Lan is not some useless and decadent uncle. Please understand this."

"Also, the reason why he has been reluctant to marry you is because of the people you come into contact with. Think about it, what are the faces of the nobles you come in contact with?"

"It doesn't mean that every noble is not a good person, but as far as I know, there seem to be very few nobles who can be called good people in the demon world."

"If Xilan doesn't want to have contact with them, just don't have contact with them," Heloise said: "I didn't force him to have contact with them."

"Even if there is no force, do you think this matter will have no impact on Xi Lan?" I asked back: "If Xi Lan becomes your husband, even if he doesn't want to, he will definitely be somewhat involved with those nobles. Do you think , among those nobles, how many of them really like Xi Lan?"

Heloise stopped talking, but it could be seen from her serious profile that she was worried about this matter.

"Very few, right?"

What I responded to was a subtle 'hmm'.

"As a husband, not only can't your wife be proud and complimented outside, but she may also become the party who is smeared. Do you think that Xi Lan, who thinks of this, still has the courage to marry you?"

"I don't need him to make any plans for me, I just need him to marry me and be my helper in gaining the highest power!"

Heloise almost roared, but then she reacted and apologized to me with a red face: "I'm sorry, I was a little impulsive just now."

"Understood" I nodded and said: "I can understand you. As a princess of the Oath Keepers organization, she does not have the talent suitable for attack, so her relationship with the leader is so shallow that she can only act as an unknown person. Auxiliary, always wandering in the circle of nobility of blood and humbleness of talent, has become confused and helpless, resentful and eager, so after coming into contact with adventurers who can be his strength, he will become dependent on him, but also afraid of this This dependence will disappear, so I hope to stabilize this support through marriage."

"Am i right?"

Heloise did not answer, but silence was the best answer.

"I don't care whether you are in a hurry to marry Xi Lan because you need a tool to stabilize your status, or because you really have feelings for Xi Lan and are worried that he will be snatched away by others, so you take the lead. I just want to say, even if Xi Lan Lan is really persuaded by you and agrees to marry you, but he will not be happy."

After a short pause and a sip of water, I continued: "Because Xilan is a very stubborn person. Regardless of his appearance, he is no different from a good-for-nothing alcoholic uncle. He seems to be easy to talk to, but in fact, his stubbornness makes it even more difficult for him to speak in a gentle way." The mainland is also famous. Let’s give a simple example. In the Zephyr Continent, there is a puppet of Held named Alice. After the battle, Xilan used his sword to cut off Alice and Held. communication channels and bonds.”

"After seeing this scene, most people will choose to leave it alone, right?" I asked back.

Heloise nodded and said, "Yes."

"But Xilan is not an ordinary person. Not only did he not choose to give up after seeing the situation, on the contrary, he first swore an oath to Alice, and then dived into the portal opened by his friend."

"You have already mastered what happened next, right?" I said: "It was nothing more than assassinating Held several times to no avail. In the end, he had no choice but to escape. During the escape process, Xilan continued to accumulate strength and planned the next assassination. .”

"Did the several failures and the tragic end really not give Xilan any inspiration?" I shook my head to myself and said, "No, there are some inspirations. At least the number of times he assassinated Held was decreasing, but the number of times he assassinated Held was decreasing. The reason why he insisted on staying in the demon world, and even in the end, even at the end of the day, even at the cost of staying here forever, was because of his obsession with assassinating Held."
