Chapter 69 I Will Still Wait for You

Xu Xie is going to die.

This is not a joke or any other modification, it is a death that will usher in the end of the simulation in a real sense.

No one needed to remind him. When he opened his eyes again, the weakness and deathly silence that emerged inside his body made Xu Xi aware of this matter.

Actually.

It was already a miracle to wake up again.

When he was sleeping previously, Xu Xi truly felt that his soul was constantly leaving his body and drifting towards the destination of nothingness, which was the eternal silence called death.

"My current state..."

"Probably, it's the so-called return of light."

Pain, chest tightness, suffocation, dizziness.

All kinds of unbearable symptoms hit, and Xu Xi, who had just woken up, felt drowsy again, and his heavy eyelids kept drooping.

He knows.

This sleep is different from the past, it will not wake up again, it will not continue, it is a real death.

So, Xu Xi called the witch's name in a hoarse voice.

His voice was so weak that it was difficult to detect, just like a gentle vibration in the air. His aging face used a difficult posture to open and close his lips to make a sound.

"Krisa..."

"Teacher, I'm here."

Krisha, who still looked 17 years old, responded softly to Xu Xi.

It seems that he is afraid, afraid that if the sound is just a little louder, it will bring pain to Xu Xie.

Today is a good day.

The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Brilliant golden light shines in from the window, bringing brightness to the room and driving away the unpleasant silence. More importantly, the mentor who has been sleeping for many years finally wakes up.

But.

I don't know why, I don't know why, but my heart, which should be happy, started to scream because of this.

The heart beating in the chest began to slow down unconsciously.

"I'm sorry, Krisha, for letting you see me in such a mess." With the help of the witch, Xu Xi held his arms on the bed, sat up from the bed with difficulty, and showed a forced smile to the witch.

Please…

Please...

Please say no more.

The sadness in my chest keeps building.

Looking at Xu Xi's old face, facing those cloudy and swollen eyes, he heard a sound that was almost inaudible, as if it would dissipate in the next second.

Krisa felt her heartbeat tremble more and more.

"You... don't need to care."

The witch doesn't care about Xu Xi's aging posture. To the witch, looks and skin are not important. What she really cares about is Xu Xi.

Her sun.

Her light.

Her redemption.

However, aging also means another thing, which is a fact that the witch absolutely does not want to face, but it is bound to happen.

"Tutor, I'm going to prepare lunch for you."

Krisha suddenly stood up and left in the direction of the door.

The witch had a premonition of something. She didn't want to hear it, she didn't dare to look, and she was even more afraid to face it, so she chose to run away.

But the voice comes from Xu Department.

But he shouted to stop the witch.

"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."

"No, Krisha, I think... I won't have a chance to eat it."

In the room with a heavy atmosphere, Xu Xi tried his best to smile, and spoke in a pretentious and relaxed manner with an attitude that was obviously extremely tired.

Krisha's body shook even more.

"Are you sleepy? Don't worry, I will continue to wait, no matter how long it takes..."

"Krisa."

"I will always wait for you, wait for you forever..."

"Krisa."

Xu Xi called out the witch's name again and again.

His voice was extremely weak, and if there was any breath, it seemed that it would dissipate if it was blown by the wind.

Finally, the witch became quiet.

She stood with her back to Xu Xi, motionless, and never made any sound, but her body continued to tremble, as if she was enduring some unspeakable pain.

"Come here, Krisha, I have something to say to you."

The harsh winter will eventually come, freezing people's hearts.

Even if you don’t want to face the cold, no matter how much you resist, winter will not dissipate because of human wishes. This is inevitable.

"yes……"

The witch returned to Xu Xi's bedside.

"Sit down."

The witch was still obedient and sat on the small wooden chair beside the bed under Xu Xi's gaze.

The height of the chair was not high. When the witch sat on it, it was just at a height where Xu Sui could touch her head.

then.

Xu Xi stretched out his dry and aging palm, gently placed it on Krisha's head, and stroked the gray-silver hair for the last time, feeling the soft feel.

"Krisa, I'm going to be gone for a long time."

The witch's body trembled even more.

But under the comfort of his hands, he slowly regained his composure.

"I have been really bothering you all this time. I was supposed to be the one taking care of you, but in the past few decades, you have been taking care of me when I was sleeping."

"Now, it's finally coming to an end."

"You can also take a rest."

No, I don't want to rest.

Please...

Please...

Please let me, please let me, as an object, continue to be used by you... no matter how long it takes, no matter how hard it is... as long as you don't leave, as long as you stay with me...

"I will be gone for a long time, too long to judge, so Krisha, you have to take care of yourself while I'm away."

"In the study, I put some information that should be useful to you."

"I have modified the magic circle in the meditation room in advance. Even if you break through the demigods, it will still have some effect."

"In the desk and cabinet in the bedroom, there are some collections I have collected over the years. You can use them or sell them. You can handle them all."

Stop…

Stop it quickly...

The increasingly heavy pain gradually accumulated in the witch's heart, causing her to subconsciously tighten her chest to cover up the scarred heart.

Although Xu Xi didn't say it directly.

Although Xu Xi deliberately skipped that word.

But how could Krisa not understand.

Her mentor, the only savior in her life, the sun that had illuminated her for decades, was about to fall into eternal silence.

die.

A word that is very close to the Xu family but infinitely far away from the witch. Just thinking about it, Krisa's sensitive and fragile heart is forced to peel off layer after layer, revealing the true helplessness. attitude.

"I don't accept it."

The witch interrupted Xu Xi's words with a trembling voice.

This was the first time she refuted Xu Xi.

"I don't accept what you said."

"Your items can only be used by you. I will wait for you, always, always, always..."

The eyes that should have been empty and lifeless trembled extremely violently for the first time.

Looking at Xu Xie.

Xu Xie was rejected.

The dry palm touching Krisa's head paused slightly, as if she was surprised by the witch's rejection.
