After Sisia finished telling the story behind the paper, she summoned Doakes' "ticket" - the Holy Light Cane from the darkness.
"As for this staff..." Sisia frowned slightly: "The emotions contained in it are the most complex among the treasures handed over by your teammates."
"The kindness you are determined to repay, the friendship you insist on guarding, the love you can't wait for, the ruthlessness you don't take for granted, the separation that is rare when you say goodbye, and the lovesickness you wait for silently...etc."
Angel was a little confused: "The feelings in this are the stories of how many people?"
"Four, if you include the maker, there are five stories."
Angel: "..."
He originally thought that if it was a story about two people, he could already imagine a bloody drama. But he didn't expect it to be a story about five people... Hey, no, a story about five people would be even more bloody, wouldn't it?
Angel thought for a while: "Of these five people, which part of the emotions does Doakes belong to? Doakes is the one who handed over this treasure to you."
If you follow the script that Angel guessed, Doakes should belong to "love and lovesickness". After all, in the end, the cane was kept in his hand, so it is normal to love each other when seeing things.
But if this is really the script, then Doakes' seemingly indifferent relaxation before was actually just a performance? He must still be reluctant to let go, after all... he loved it.
However, before Angel's crazy drama could take shape, Sicia poured cold water on it.
Sisia: "He doesn't account for a big part of these emotions. Is it considered friendship?"
Angel: "Friendship that you insist on protecting?"
Sisia nodded: "Yes."
"Then he used this cane in exchange for tickets, and it seems that the 'Insistence on Guarding' has also disappeared?"
Sisia turned her head and looked at Angel: "Why do you think giving away the cane doesn't count as guarding? Don't be limited by your thinking. Sometimes, giving up is also an option. And your teammate, he chose before
He wanted to keep it, but now he has chosen to give it up. Perhaps in his view, giving up is also to protect his friends."
Angel thought for a while, and it seemed that what Sicia said was right. He had always thought too one-dimensionally and superficially about similar emotional issues. In fact, no matter what kind of emotion it was, it was very complex, just like human emotions.
Emotions are the same, always ups and downs.
What you think may not be what you think, what you deny may be true.
People are unpredictable, and so are emotions.
"I don't know the specific story of this cane yet, but it should be very entangled." After Xixia finished speaking, she murmured in a low voice: "I actually don't like this kind of treasure with complicated meanings. I'm so immersed in it."
Among them, I will also get entangled. But this kind of treasure is the best way to pass the time. If you look at the whole story from different emotional perspectives, you will have different feelings."
"Even if I don't like this kind of treasure, I would rather choose this kind of treasure than your two gold coins."
Angel:...Have the two gold coins he sent out now become Sisia's weights and measures? Each one must be compared.
Sisia glanced at the cane for the last time with complicated eyes, and then threw it into the mist.
The last treasure flew out of the mist, a stone slab.
It was the same stone slab that held the Black Earl's nose.
Angel didn't care about the treasure itself, but he wanted to know the story of the Black Earl and what he and Sicia talked about?
"This slate is the bearer of the Black Earl's nose clone that you mentioned." Sisia did not hold the slate in her hand, but let it float in mid-air: "The slate carries the Black Earl's nose clone, which is about sixty years old.
Years have witnessed some emotional changes in Black Earl’s Nose over the years.”
"However, his emotions are very weak and his meaning is not much. I can only say that it is barely a treasure."
"If it weren't for the fact that he said he was from the Noah family, I really wouldn't have accepted it."
Hearing this, Angel knew that the topic was getting to the point, so he pretended to be surprised and asked: "Is there any relationship between the Noah family and the Source Worshipers?"
If you directly ask Xicia why she treats the Noah family differently, Xicia may not answer. But if Angel directly brings Baiyuan and the Noah family to the same level, Xicia is more likely to explain.
A lot.
As expected, Sisia frowned: "The Noah family is just an insignificant wizard family in Naruo City. How can it be related to us Source Worshipers?"
Angel: "Now the Noah family is a giant in the Southern Territory."
Xixia snorted coldly: "So what? In the Southern Territory where legends are unknown, any organization or family would have been called insignificant ten thousand years ago."
Angel touched his chin: "That's true."
"Since Baiyuan is not related to the Noah clan, why does Miss Sisia give preferential treatment to Earl Black? Could it be... that she is interested in the current power of the Noah clan and wants to pave the way for the Baiyuan clan to rise again?"
Angel knew very well that the following sentence was definitely not the reason for Xixia's preferential treatment, but this did not prevent him from specifically mentioning it. After Xixia and Bobota met, they would understand the current situation of the worshipers, except for An
There are basically no connections in Guerwai. If Sisia really wants to revive the Baiyuan tribe like Bobota, without the support of more forces, he will still be grouped in the same way as the original Baiyuan people.
Wolves share food.
Xicia didn't react at first and thought Angel was teasing her because the second half of Angel's teasing tone was too strong.
Just when Sicia was about to retort, she suddenly paused. Thinking about it carefully, Angel seemed to be teasing, but underneath the playful tone, there was a very real problem hidden.
The Baiyuan Clan does not rise up just because they have the Source Fire and their ancestral altar is rekindled.
Rise is a purpose and a result. But without a process, where will the result be?
And can this process of rise really be achieved by Xicia and Popota, whom she has never met yet?
Sisia's eyes gradually became serious, her thoughts became narrower and narrower, and her prospects became more and more dire.
At this moment, Angel said: "We were suddenly speechless. Is it because you don't want to answer this question? Or are you thinking about how to deal with me?"
Sisia rolled her eyes at Angel: "I'm just thinking about something!"
Angel looked like "I understand": "Is this your normal behavior in the past ten thousand years? You start to meditate on whatever comes to mind. As soon as you meditate, you don't realize that the sky is getting dark and the earth is dark, so time just goes by?"
"If that's the case, I don't care. Are you planning to let Popota wait until she dies of old age?"
Xicia: "...little bastard, you have a lot of wild ideas, but unfortunately all of them are wrong."
Angel said nonchalantly: "It's just wrong. I don't care about right or wrong. I just want to remind you that those things that are out of reach can be remembered in your heart. When the day comes, you can think about it again.
How to face it. After all, the Baiyuan clan is favored by heaven, and its re-emergence may be destined in itself, just like a distant mountain seems unattainable, but when you get closer, you find that there is a ladder leading directly to the top of the mountain."
Hearing this, how could Sicia not understand that Angel had completely seen through her thoughts. In other words, her thoughts were simply guided by Angel.
This feeling is really unpleasant.
"Do you know, it's disgusting for you to do this?" Sicia looked at Angel intently.
Angel looked innocent: "Did I do anything bad? I even specially arranged for you to meet Popota."
Sisia was silent for a moment and hummed softly: "I'm too lazy to argue with you. Also, I want to take back what I said before."
Angel: "Oh?"
Sisia: "I said before that nothing lasts forever and nothing is destined. Now I take back the second half of my sentence. I hope some things are destined."
As for what this "some things" are, both Xicia and Angel knew it tacitly.
As Xicia said these words, her originally gloomy mood dissipated a lot. In terms of merit, Angel would be the first to recommend it, but Xicia didn't want to admit that she was screwed over by a little kid.
His emotions were ups and downs, so he simply changed the topic.
"Back to the topic, you just asked me why I gave the Black Earl preferential treatment. There is a reason." Sisia pretended to have a long conversation.
Angel also kept quiet at the right time, as if giving Sicia a lot of face.
Sisia: "At the beginning...that is, ten thousand years ago, I was sent to Narok City by the prophet. For some reasons that cannot be explained in detail, I met a friend."
The so-called "cannot elaborate" actually has two answers: because of the oath or because of the mission sent by the prophet.
Angel couldn't decide which one it was specifically. However, as long as it didn't affect the overall situation, he didn't bother to guess at this time.
"My friend has a very special status. She has an excellent background. However, she seems to be aloof, but in fact she is a bird trapped in a cage. Everything in her life has been arranged long ago."
"She longs for freedom and also longs for all life outside the cage."
"I had a very special status in Naraku City at that time. Being friends with her would not cause any objection from her family. On the contrary, I was happy for our friendship."
When Sisia told stories about the past, her eyes gradually began to blur: "At first we were wary of each other, but then something happened and we became best friends..."
"After becoming a close friend, I also learned about her situation. Out of pity, I used an excuse to get her family to allow me to take her out of the 'cage' and go out to relax."
"To be honest, I still don't know whether I did the right thing or the wrong thing when I took her out that time."
Angel didn't want to speak at first, but Sicia was deep in thought, so she could only open her mouth to give him a proper compliment: "Why did you say that?"
"Because she met someone outside."
In order to prevent Sicia from falling into deep thought, Angel spoke again: "Up to this point in this story, the Noah family has not been mentioned. So, it is the turn of the Noah family to appear, right?"
Sisia nodded: "Yes, that is a young wizard from the Noah family."
"Could the following story be about love and hate again?" Having said that, Angel had actually guessed at this time that the close friend Sicia mentioned should be the warden's daughter Mag.
Liter; and the young wizard from the Noah family must be Augustine.
"As you guessed, yes, there is indeed a wonderful attraction between them. However, there is love and entanglement, but there is no resentment." Sicia said lightly: "The one from the Noah family
The wizard has a mysterious temperament about him, and he is a strange person whose thoughts and actions are unexpected. My friend was attracted by this aspect of him."
"So is this a one-way secret love, or a two-way love affair?"
Xicia: "Interesting description. However, it is neither. It can be regarded as...a two-way secret love."
"It's rare for my friend to go out, so I became a sounding board between them. My friend likes Noah, but they only met once, and she thought Noah only regarded her as a friend. But I know that Noah is very fond of her.
My friend fell in love at first sight and hoped that I could help him deliver the message. But I knew very well that there were insurmountable obstacles between them."
Angel: "Then did you pass it on?"
Sisia nodded: "I passed it on, but every time Noah wrote those love poems, I would inadvertently give some pointers to make the love poems look less explicit."
Angel: "Even if it's not explicit, it's still a love poem. Can't your friend see it?"
Sisia: "So what if you see it? She hopes to escape the cage, but she also knows that this is just an expectation."
Angel: "Then they continue to send letters between them?"
Sisia nodded: "Noah's expressions are becoming more and more explicit, but my friend is becoming more and more restrained, but it is difficult to hide feelings, especially when the other person is a keen wizard. From my friend's words
In the hesitant but lingering strokes of his writing, he can also sense the friendship of my friends."
"It's just that at the moment, neither he nor she can do anything."
Angel: "What happened next?"
Xicia shook her head: "I didn't know about it later. I only served as a mouthpiece for a while. Then, I encountered some inevitable choices. I chose a path that no one expected, and I became what I am now.
The appearance of.”
"Has it been transformed into a box?"
Xixia nodded: "After I transformed into a box, I slept for many years. After my soul was completely integrated into the box, my consciousness gradually recovered. At that time, Naraku City had almost reached its end."
"Have you never heard from that senior Noah and your friend again?"
Sisia asked curiously: "Are you very concerned about their ending?"
Angel: "It's not that I care about their ending. Think about it from another perspective, if I tell you a piece of gossip that involves the ancestors of my teammates, and then pique your interest, but don't tell you the ending, what will you do?
Do?"
Sisia: "...It will probably drive you crazy and make your heart itch."
Angel: "So, do you understand how I feel now?"
Sisia: "I don't know their ending either. I asked the Wise Lord, and it gave me an ambiguous answer. No matter how I asked, the Wise Lord was unwilling to elaborate."
"This is probably the case. I got to know the Noah wizard because of my friend. Although he is average in his talent for writing love poems, he himself is a very mysterious person."
Ingres, who had written love poems for Augustine, silently thought to himself: His talent for writing love poems is not average, but rather average.
Angel: "Mysterious? This is the second time you have described him that way."
Sisia thought: "He has a very strange temperament, it is difficult to explain what it feels like. Moreover, he is quite knowledgeable and seems to know everything. As long as you have been to the Noah clan, you can clearly feel that he
Completely different from the other idiots in the Noah family."
"The temperament is very mysterious, and the source of his knowledge is mysterious. Another thing is that as a prophetic wizard, I can't see through him."
Angel: "It seems that this ancestor Noah has a big secret."
"Maybe." Sisia looked at Angel: "But speaking of secrets, don't you have any secrets? What you know, know, do, and think are obviously not in line with your age."
Angel didn't answer, but smiled and said nothing.
Xicia really wanted to know Angel's secret, whether it was the Source Fire or the worshipers he knew. But Angel didn't accept the offer, so she could only put it aside... Maybe she could ask the man named Bo
Pota’s people?
As for whether the tribe will be bribed by Angel, Xicia will not think so much at this time. Even if Bobota is really bribed, in her opinion, people of the same origin and the same tribe must be better than Angel, an "outsider".
It is easier to get close to them and it will be easier to instigate rebellion.
"Although this Noah is very mysterious, I also learned a lot from him. It can be said that he is the second best friend I met in Naraku City."
"So, for the sake of my dear friend, I will naturally be more lenient towards Earl Black, a descendant of the Noah family."
Angel showed a look of sudden realization: "So that's the case. However, Noah's ancestors probably didn't expect that you would treat their descendants' clones leniently, but kick their real descendants away."
What Angel was talking about was Vai, who was kicked out of this dark space by Sisia from the very beginning.
"Can you blame me? I'm not omniscient and omnipotent. Who knew that Vai was also from the Noah family?" Sisia said angrily: "Even if I really knew, I wanted to be lenient to him, but I wouldn't be lenient enough to exchange for ten magic crystals.
The point of passing eligibility.”
Angel mentioned Vai simply because he felt that Sisia's mood was still stuck in past memories, and was gradually slipping downwards.
Once Sisia's mood is low, it will probably be a bit difficult to ask her questions later.
That's why the incident of Angir Tiwai happened.
It is indeed easy for Xicia to divert her attention. When Angel said this, her mood immediately changed.
Taking advantage of Sisia's silence, Angel quickly asked: "By the way, when it comes to the Noah family, I really have some questions to ask you."
Xicia said doubtfully: "I don't know much about the Noah family. The only person I know a little bit about is that person."
Angel: "What I want to ask may actually be related to that person."
