Chapter 212
"...Young Master is of course gentle..."
Yi Aier thought for a moment, although he would care about himself after his hard training and give himself a lot of useful equipment and food.
But, per se... throwing her into harsh training shouldn't be called "gentle", right? Especially when he hits the Extreme Fire Meteor directly at him.
"...Okay, maybe not..."
"It's interesting."
Pevlan also sat down and took off the shawl she wore on her shoulders.
"Then I can probably guess why Shona followed him."
"To harm the young master! There must be something wrong with Shona, who has such a weird life experience!"
Yi Aier lowered her voice, but her words were very serious.
"Well...even though I told you about Xiuna's somewhat weird identity, I don't think she would harm your young master."
"Don't believe it!"
"Forget it, I still think your young master sounds interesting. Hmm...don't you think there are no less doubts about him than the dangerous Shona we talk about?"
"Um?"
Elle tilted her head.
She also realized that maybe it was because she rarely communicated with people other than the young master - rather, she rarely communicated with people who didn't know Will, so she was actually...
First time "evaluating" Will.
Tell others about Will through her mouth, through her impressions.
"I have been a captain for so many years and have led many players - or students. To be honest, it is very difficult to change yourself. It is even harder to 'change' other people stably. ?”
"this……"
"To change other people means that you know them very well. To predict events like a god means that you know the future very well."
"The young master often talks about words like 'destiny', but... I always think he is very pessimistic."
"He...he often writes something in a red notebook, or flips through something, but he never shows it to us..."
"He always seems to know where something is going to happen..."
Yi'er mentioned this and suddenly noticed something keenly.
"Fate...pessimistic..."
"Look, does he look like someone who can see through your 'future'?"
"...Young master will not harm Yi Aier!"
"No, no, sometimes doubt doesn't mean it will harm someone - just like Shona."
"Well... Yi'er seems to know a little bit about what you mean. Although... I can't express it..."
Iel looked at the flames.
Perhaps because she has been by Will's side, using a dog's intuition about its master, Yiel seems to be able to imagine the young master's state at this time.
"Master...will you go directly to the capital...also...also because of the 'destiny' you keep mentioning?"
Although Iel is relatively slow, judging from the fact that she has never written a reply to her and posted so many "missing notices", Her Majesty Treya may be living a very difficult life.
That……
Master Will, who knows the "future" and "destiny", the young master who has been changing them, will "save" her.
After all, this is the young master.
but……
Why……
Yiel wrapped his tail around and stroked it slowly.
I will have some...
What about worry and displeasure?
Chapter 242: What do you think of him? Xiuna
Novistown.
XXX Tavern.
Isaac saw everyone in the tavern leaving one by one, and was about to close the business, and then...
He heard the jingle of the bell at the door.
"I'm sorry for the guest at this time, it's a little late, please wait next time..."
but……
He paused when he saw the sound at the door.
"Yo?"
She held out her hand and said hello.
"Xiu...Xiuna?!"
An unexpected person appeared in front of him.
She seemed to have also changed her clothes, changing the type of clothes she usually wore - yes, it was autumn, and this guy finally knew that it was uncomfortable to be cold.
What's even more unexpected is...
Isaac felt that he had never seen this Shona before.
She still looked healthy and energetic, and she seemed to be in good spirits, but... her expression was a little tired.
It's not the fatigue of "travel fatigue", but more of the fatigue of "being hit".
If Isaac remembers correctly...
She should have left with the little boy she had been waiting for for many years - please allow Isaac to use this word, after all, in his eyes, the young master was just a child.
Moreover, it was her plan to "leave", to "pretend to be drunk" and let the other party see her off - she should really be pretending to be drunk, right?
Isaac even experienced the "post-story" here: the young master's little maid came to the door, and Shona's old teammate also came to the door. The couple didn't know where they went to enjoy themselves.
but……
"Well, my train has just arrived. Let's have something to eat and have a drink here. Given our friendship, is that okay?"
"No problem, no problem. Wait...what train just arrived?"
"It's the fastest and most convenient means of transportation now, but it's a pity that you have to pick it up when no one is around, which is a bit troublesome."
Shona said and scratched her head.
Isaac sensed something was wrong.
Her first sentence did not explain her current situation, especially the question he wanted to ask most - where was the person who was following her?
"Okay, what do you want to drink? There's quite a lot left. Recently, the dungeon here has disappeared, and its popularity has suddenly dropped a lot."
"Chaos...forget it, let's have a regular signature cocktail."
"Um?"
The tone in which he opened his mouth to order the same drink as that boy, but then retracted it in an instant, made Isaac smell something bad.
"Come."
"Thanks."
Xiuna looked at the wine glass, unlike before, when she came back from the adventure, she would drag him into chatting about family issues.
Well, Isaac had guessed it.
"you……"
He paused.
"Did you get dumped?"
"...Eh?!"
Shona had just picked up the cup and took a sip. When she heard this, she resisted the urge to spurt out and swallowed the wine.
"...Maybe it doesn't count, but I...I haven't confessed yet, so...so it doesn't count..."
She seemed to be trying hard to endure the stinging sensation of the wine flowing down her throat. She stared at the wine glass, her tone and eyes clearly still a little aggrieved.
this……
This is the look of a loser who "finds that the person he likes is not possible, so he comes to drink and still shows off"!
--how so? !
——How could Shona, who is so invincible, so cute, and so strong, lose? !
——Did he make a mistake? That kid turns out to be a scumbag who plays with emotions? !
"You...you didn't say anything, but I can already see your pitiful expression on me. Uncle, I don't recognize you as my father. Don't always worry about me like an old father!"
"Okay, then... tell me in detail? I have a lot of wine here."
"Hmm...do you believe in 'fate'?"
"Don't believe it."
"I can't go on talking about this anymore!"
"Trust me, can't you? Keep talking."
Shona's slender fingers were twirling on the wine glass. Her nails were already very long, and it seemed that they hadn't been cut for a long time.
"I wanted to do it, but... I found that the part of him that I like may overlap with something that has always been hidden in him."
"Don't riddle me, uncle, I can't understand you."
Shona scratched her head.
"It's him who can understand what I'm talking about right away!"
"Then you should talk to him."
"Well... Anyway, at first, I felt that he... he was like a bystander living in a 'fate' that controlled but was controlled by himself. Probably like a 'hot stone', he He is very passionate about people and expresses himself very well, but his heart is as hard as a stone and it is difficult to see what he really thinks.”
"... Are you people with high IQs so complicated?"
Shona glared at Isaac.
"Okay, keep talking."
"We...we encountered some things. Anyway, it was him who suffered the consequences. I don't want to comment too much. But, since then, I have seen the hope of 'living here' ignited in him, like the stone being chipped away. It’s like a crack.”
Shona raised her wine glass, pointed the red wine inside to the light, and spoke.
Hearing this, Isaac didn't hear what he wanted to hear most... no, the saddest part about "Shuna being dumped".
"Isn't this great? Or, this is what you want."
"Yeah. Until...I discovered that it appeared on him at the same time..."
Shona put down her wine glass.
"The 'fear' of me - I later learned that it probably stemmed from his fear of fate."
"..."
"Old President, you remember what I said, I'm very lucky. It's like I have some kind of aura. What I want and what I want to do can often be achieved in the first try."
"Hmm...like the protagonist?"
"It was as if he saw my identity, so he kept trying to understand my past - as if he was trying to find the answer to the 'destiny' in his heart."
Shona sighed and drank the wine in one gulp.
"He didn't need to say it himself, but I felt that I might be a hindrance to him, so...in order not to delay his business, I returned here obediently, which is the starting point - in the same way as I left."
"..."
