Chapter 46 The Small Villa Under the Night Rain
The night gradually deepened.
However, the light rain outside the window not only did not stop, but became even more intense.
Pitter-patter struck the glass, and the gale blew through the sea of trees from time to time, emitting bursts of unique forest whistles.
Because the dark clouds obscured the sky, it got dark very early, around 5:30 PM it was completely dark… Just then, there was a knock on the door.
“Knock, knock, knock (shouted the mouth), Is big sister here?”
“Mhm.”
Mi Xue Zhou opened the door, and Su Ling Zhou, who was soaked, walked in… Although she wore a raincoat, her clothes were still a bit wet in order to protect the items on her chest.
“Su Ling, why are you here so late?”
“Hehe, didn’t I have to take a leave from the coffee shop? But I’ve already bought the things, so it should be foolproof~”
After speaking, Su Ling shook the plastic bag in her arms—it contained not only candles and paper models of money, but even fresh chicken drumsticks and some seasonings.
“I heard that the vengeful spirit’s name is Lonis? Hehe, it’s so similar to Lonis’s name… So, we must be serious.”
“Ah, Su Ling-chan?”
“Mhm, Little Luo, let me help you decorate. I’m going to make some cola chicken wings and host the vengeful spirit miss.”
…
…
And so, the ceremony to pray for the vengeful spirit began.
Lonis didn’t know what kind of ceremony this was, but according to Dean Emerald… they would place the things that the vengeful soul loved most during her lifetime in various corners of the room.
Using “love” to fight “hatred.”
Using “happiness” to wash away “sorrow.”
…
Even the most frenzied person would be reluctant to destroy something they like, right? And this peaceful atmosphere was precisely the first step in purifying the vengeful spirit.
Therefore, the dining table was filled with cookies, and other sweets were also placed in various corners of the room, as if waiting for the vengeful soul to enjoy.
Photos from the snow country were also posted on the wall, and to satisfy the vengeful spirit’s preferences, Emerald even brought another ancient relic from the academy, a game console.
Everything was ready, as if as soon as the vengeful spirit appeared, she would be instantly immersed in this warm atmosphere and receive everyone’s blessings and sharing.
But
(It’s over, this is not an exorcism ritual at all, it’s clearly a curse ritual!)
Lonis quietly turned her head and looked at Elus from the corner of her eye.
Although this black-haired girl said nothing and could only look at the room’s decorations with a blank expression, Lonis knew that Elus must be very angry right now!
Because if she liked to eat cookies, then she must be very angry now that she could only look but not eat them!
After all, these foods were prepared for the vengeful spirit, and Elus’s identity at this moment was just a student, she couldn’t eat “offerings” and couldn’t ruin the atmosphere by playing the game console.
And if Elus got angry, she would definitely suffer.
Even if there were people watching around, Elus wouldn’t tease her immediately, but after they returned to the magic ship to sleep, she would definitely be retaliated against doubly.
So…
(Come on, Lonis, think of a way, can you let the young lady eat some cookies? Hmm, you must eat them!)
…
…
Lonis thought so, but she didn’t know,
At this moment, Elus’s mood was not anger.
In fact, from the moment she walked to the villa, this black-haired girl had no more “anger” in her heart.
What remained was a kind of melancholy that she didn’t know how to express.
Because she didn’t know how to express her feelings, she simply maintained a stiff expression.
Because she didn’t know how to face the gifts brought by everyone, she simply remained silent.
After all…
Perhaps everyone else thought Elus was a calm or elegant person.
But only Lonis knew that Elus was just a tsundere.
Perhaps intimate people would know that Elus was a tsundere,
But only she herself knew,
That she wasn’t even a tsundere.
…
Initially, she just didn’t want to cause trouble for others.
But later, all sorts of things happened…
In order to pacify the departed souls of the past, she painstakingly awakened Lonis.
Although, he was a very perverted guy,
But he also truly killed the Demon King in the virtual world.
The souls of heroes returned to their homeland, and the grievances that had lasted for a hundred years finally came to an end.
…
(Hmph, what a big idiot?)
(I was originally prepared to be a soft girl and be bullied by you all the way…)
(But who told you, you became like that?)
…
Elus looked at Lonis and smiled faintly.
Since the mission of the journey was like this,
Then she, Elus, could not have any hesitation.
Whether it was overcoming obstacles or daily life,
She had to treat this perverted girl with a fierce attitude,
Because only then could she gather enough magic power along the way.
Because only then could she, at the time of death…
Not make Lonis sad.
…
Yes, Elus’s original plan was to die completely after killing Cru.
Because Lonis originally only liked girls with a soft personality, not herself.
Because the mission the system gave them was to save the world, until death do them part…
…
Until death do them part,
But it wasn’t the “until death do them part” of the two of them…
Whether it was a Hero or a partner, as long as one of them died on the path of sacrifice, the other would gain true freedom.
Just like Luna and the Fallen Hero. As long as one was willing to sacrifice herself, the other could be freed from the mire of their mission.
…
Elus’s plan was originally like this.
Although Lonis was a bit foolish, he should be able to grasp the power of the Fiery Abyss after her death, right?
Without her presence, Lonis could swagger and deceive in the world, no matter how many harems he opened, or how many girls he bullied, it would be fine.
…
But, in the cave, in the Fiery Abyss, in front of the Crimson door.
Elus heard the cry from the weak maid.
She knew that Lonis didn’t want her to die.
This perverted masochistic maid, although she had been bullied by her all along… but like in the past, she had fallen in love with her.
So,
Let’s just live on like this?
Let’s just stay with this guy and keep bullying you like this?
Turn you into a Silver-haired Fluffball, and train you into a maid who only knows Aba Aba~
Hmph,
Hmph hmph~
…
So,
Lonis, although you like me very much and want to be by my side, it’s a pity that you don’t understand me at all?
You don’t know what my thoughts are, you don’t know whether my mood right now is anger or disappointment.
So, I’m not the tsundere you think I am.
But just a
…
idiot, who is somewhat similar to you.
