If reasonable
How reasonable
In a world where darkness is taboo, to confess that you planned and premeditated to corrupt a promising Star Knight just to pretend to be his savior and join him against the world
No, unless she's crazy.
This crime is ten thousand times worse than drugging.
Liu Yu will never admit—
She will never pin her hopes on the pity of others.
She has done bad things, she knows, and she never hides it, she is a bad person, unlike Nataxi, she is not true, kind or beautiful at all.
If one day in the future, Gaia recovers all her memories, he does not have love for her, he condemns her, scorns her, and even takes her life with a sword—Liu Yu thinks, she will probably die laughing.
Step by step to get here, she has never regretted it.
As for Gaia...
He should just guess, suspect.
If he is sure, what is being strangled now should not be her wrist, but her neck.
"What do you mean, Mr. Leslie?"
"Belia, you understand."
The boy is gentle.
"I don't know!"
The girl tried to shake off his hand, but was firmly restrained.
"Belia, after you cut my neck and cheeks with your nails, the darkness began to seep into my body and pollute me, it made me have a high fever and fell into a coma..." The teenager looked at her without any expression , "And before that, I was fine."
"So, Mr. Leslie, you convict me?!"
The girl seemed to have been greatly insulted, she raised her head suddenly, and looked at him angrily, "... and you have been asking me just now, is it because of this reason?... You doubt me?!... Do you think, I will be angry because you didn't save me in time and broke your arm? That's why I led this revenge against you?… "
"Belia, you are so excited."
"I can't help being excited!"
She took a sharp step back, but hit the wall—
Gaia's hand was there in advance.
Liu Yu didn't feel any pain.
But her heart froze.
This is him, Gaia Leslie, god incarnate.
He is always so considerate and gentle, trying to stir your heart all the time - but he obviously doesn't love anyone.
Are those believers also bewitched by God’s tenderness bit by bit
The vacant part of the right shoulder is still aching. After running hard, the wind blows and the stones are worn. You don't need to look to know that it is a mess.
Liu Yu felt trembling.
She straightened her chest and said indifferently like never before:
"Mr. Leslie, please let me go before you judge me."
The boy seemed to be stunned.
The beautiful eyebrows frowned in an instant: "Belia."
"open!"
Gaia let her go.
Liu Yu looked at his wrist, he used skillful force without leaving any mark.
"...Mr. Leslie, you can indeed doubt my love for you, you can even doubt everything. But your doubt is an insult to the most devout and loyal believer in light." She slowly and again Ruo Qianjun said, "If this was in the academy, I would challenge you to a duel, and I will never die."
"Belia..."
"Mr. Leslie, please call me Miss Fergus in the future. Beria can only be called by those who are close to her. I swear to the God of Light, I, Beria Fergus, will never use dark means to pollute a future star knight."
But her righteous refutation did not cause any ripples.
Gaia looked at her:
"Lie Detection Technique."
A white light enveloped her.
"Miss Fergus, you can go on."
But Liu Yu seemed to have been pressed the "stop" switch, and stopped talking.
The whole space fell into a deathly silence.
Immediately afterwards, a low, penetrating laugh sounded out.
"Mr. Leslie, you really know how to trample on a heart..."
Liu Yu smiled on his face, but his heart turned quickly.
I don't know why, but this time Gaia's attitude is extremely firm. Unlike the previous class, he let her go lightly and didn't care. Obviously, this time, he attaches great importance to this answer. Is it because of the relationship involving dark forces...
To get past the "Lie Detection Technique", either, you didn't lie, or—
I believe in lies myself.
She had to lie to herself first.
Yes, hallucinations!
She also has hallucinations!
Liu Yufu thought deeply.
It's like hypnosis, making yourself convinced of a certain "truth"...
At this moment, she was extremely grateful for the bet she had made with Louis. Strange to say, although there are four sentences of psychedelic art, it is not as difficult as she imagined. She mastered the silent method of "psychedelic art" the next day.
[Psychedelics. ]
[… From now on, you are Belia Fergus, you love Gaia Leslie deeply, you are the most devout believer in the light, you have not done anything to harm the light... When Gaia When Leslie stops asking questions, the hallucination will dissipate. ]
The blond girl opened her eyes.
In this moment, she becomes Belia Fergus.
"Mr. Leslie, what do you want to know?"
"I want to know why I was infected by the dark force after being scratched by Miss Fergus."
"You ask me? I really don't know, there are dark forces everywhere here, maybe it's something else, maybe you've been infected while running, but you didn't notice it... maybe that big lizard infected you …the only thing I can do is swear. I swear to the God of Light, I, Belia Fergus, have never done anything to harm the Light or you Gaia Leslie. I yearn for the Light, just as I longed for you as before... "
There was crystal water in her blue eyes, and no one could deny her sincerity at this moment.
The white awns turned into dots, covering her.
Which means—she wasn't lying.
Once again, the small space fell into a stagnant silence.
"Mr. Leslie, are you done?"
In the end, it was the girl who broke the silence.
"No, there is one more question..." The young man was silent, then shook his head, "But, there is no need. I'm done asking."
It was like flipping a switch.
The veil of bewilderment was removed, Liu Yu blinked, only to feel that his consciousness had regained his sobriety.
She actually had an answer ready.
For example, Gaia grabbed her wrist and asked her what was under her nails.
She would tell him that the nails were worn out during the sheep-turning run, and they were stained with a lot of messy liquid, maybe there was blood of dark creatures in them...
In order not to be so passive in the future...
Liu Yu leaned against the wall, raised his head slightly, and looked at the quiet young man in front of him:
"But I have a question, Mr. Leslie, can you answer me?"
"My pleasure."
Gaia placed one hand in front of her abdomen, bending slightly.
Even though he was naked, he still looked extremely elegant, and his body with beautiful texture was beautiful and holy, making it impossible for anyone to think of profanity at all.
"When you were 'interrogating' me just now," she used "interrogation", "had even the slightest... couldn't bear it?"
"Interrogation? This is not an interrogation."
"What is that? Your accusation is like a sharp arrow aimed at a light believer." Tears began to well up in the girl's eyes, and she blinked away the trace. "'Lie Breaker', this is an insult to a noble personality."
The boy lowered his eyes:
"Sorry, but I think... the truth is more important."
"It's just what you think is the truth. Mr. Leslie, if you're really sorry for me, then, from now on, no matter what the situation, please don't use the 'lie-breaking technique' again, not to anyone. It's never a friendly gesture, especially to someone who loves you, it cools your love and withers it."
"Miss Fergus, has your love for me withered?"
The boy looked straight at her.
Liu Yu didn't answer.
She just leaned against the wall and closed her eyes indifferently.
The light of lie detection is gradually fading.
In the darkness, a slight confusion appeared on the young man's face, as if he was troubled by some emotion, but soon, this confusion also dissipated from his face like fog.
He also sat down against the wall.
*****
Liu Yu was so tired that he closed his eyelids for a while before falling asleep unknowingly.
She was woken up by the heat.
A soldering iron was leaning on her side, and Gaia was next to her, and at some point she had a fever again.
She popped out a small ball of light, and seeing the brightness of the ball of light, she found that his face was burning red again, and he just nestled beside her, pitifully, sweating all over his body, his silver hair messily attached to his face. Looking at his body, a layer of red fainted under the jade skin.
... The tug of darkness and light is not over yet
... Then why did you suddenly wake up again just now
... Could it be because he became a sheep in the middle? Sheep are immune to all spells...
Liu Yu felt that he had come to the truth.
Although I don't know what the consequences of this interruption will be, but next, it's best not to turn Gaia into a sheep, so as not to go wrong in the middle.
In the confusion, those green eyes opened, and the shadow on the eyes became heavier.
He seemed to be looking for something, and when he sensed Liu Yu, he said hoarsely:
"Belia?"
Liu Yu didn't answer.
He seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then said again: "Miss Fergus?"
"I am here."
He said something slowly and vaguely, and those green eyes closed again.
"Mr. Leslie?"
"Mr. Leslie?"
Liu Yu called twice, and seeing that he was really still, he got up cautiously and moved around in the narrow cave.
Time passed imperceptibly in the dark.
She didn't know how long she had been in the cave, and when Bishop Bruce would come, and the "cheeping" sound outside the cave never stopped. You can't just wait like this, there are physiological needs...
"Miss Fergus, don't go out."
The boy seemed to understand her intentions, and opened his eyes again.
Liu Yu: ...
She really suspected that he was fake.
"It's not an option to just wait like this, Mr. Leslie, it's safe here, I'll go out and take a look..." she said, "If you don't go far, just take a look, maybe someone will come to us."
"It's only been a day..."
"One day? Mr. Leslie, how do you know?"
The boy raised his eyelids:
"Don't go out."
Just this one sentence seemed to have cost him all his strength. Liu Yu walked over and found that he was sweating again in a short time, and his whole body seemed to be soaked in a steamer. The darkness caused him more harm than she imagined.
It cannot be delayed any longer.
After being hungry for a whole day, my hands and feet started to feel weak. No one knows when the rescue will come, after all, the plot has already left more than half.
Although she has become a god-favored person and has learned some magic arts, she can't break away from the human realm. She must supplement herself with food for the next battle.
Gaia is a body made by God, and it should be more resistant, but there is no guarantee, after all—darkness is eroding his body; he keeps sweating like this, without water replenishment, he will become dehydrated after a long time...
Liu Yu slowly sorted out her thoughts. According to the plan, her fake indifference and true affectionate persona will slowly stand up.
To set up a person, you have to set up a platform—
Castles in the air, just talking but not doing it, is not enough.
Liu Yu stood up and decided to go out to find some food and water to support this god ancestor who had a high fever. When he came back, he was still very weak. Of course, integrity is also needed.
It is better to wrap up a layer of indifference and let him discover the "goodness" inside to be touched.
Just like a submissive wife, it's not as fresh and vivid as a lover who can be charming and playful.
But... how to get out
When Liu Yu finally dug out a hole, drilled it out with the body of the pink sheep, and filled it with soil with difficulty, he found that a cloud of black mist was squatting beside her.
The black mist moved and turned into a tall young man.
The young man poked her head, then retracted his hand, and rubbed it in disgust:
"Oh, the sticky, nasty fluff."
Liu Yu glared at him:
"Meh!"
"Master Louis, you came here just to tell me this?"
Louis actually understood.
"No, I'm here to congratulate Ms. Fergus. You have successfully turned a promising Star Knight into a Corrupted species. Oh, Corrupted species... so exciting." Louis let go.
"... But, he deserves it... and he deserves to suffer..."
Liu Yu's three little sheep's hooves were running around. She remembered that it was described in the book that there was food in the ground.
Some kind of sweet-smelling thatch like moss, soft in the mouth, and small purple fruits.
Louis is like a manic patient who hasn't spoken to anyone for years, persistently nagging beside her, and the little lamb deftly dodges waves of dark creatures, and with the help of memory beads and light bombs, he finally hums. Humph successfully found some small fruits.
As for the moss-like thatch, she was mentally disturbed, felt the goat's hoof, it was sticky and wet, and she didn't dig it.
The uniform was packed into a small package, which was carried on the lamb's back, and contained about thirty small fruits.
Only then did Liu Yu slow down:
"Meh..."
"Master Louis, I think you have more than one purpose."
"No, I have no purpose. Miss Fergus, you don't know, you are like a gift from this world to me, oh no, surprise... maybe, you will create a miracle, I am looking forward to it..."
Louis's pale face showed the fanaticism of a mental patient, and he stared at her like she was really his treasure.
Liu Yu felt: This person's secondary illness seems to be getting worse.
"If I were your surprise," the little lamb smiled with difficulty on his fluffy face, "would you like to give this surprise and do me another favor?"
"Oh, let's hear it. If it's interesting, King Louis X is very willing."
"Is Bishop Bruce coming?"
"The news came from the pigeon, two days later." Louis shrugged, "Poor Prince Carlo, he is so infatuated with Miss Fergus, he is so skinny."
"After those two days, can you lead that monster to the entrance of Gaia and me?"
Liu Yu stretched out a piece of lamb's hoof and made a comparison, "I need him to give me one, just one."
The little lamb looked at him pitifully with blue eyes:
"Can you help?"
"Just a moment? That crazy Nosid? Miss Fergus, you will die!" Louis tilted his head and thought seriously, "No! That's not okay! If you die, the world will become boring again That fellow Nosed is not as sympathetic as I am, he likes to eat beautiful things the most."
"It turns out that the great Louis X is not as powerful as a large lizard."
"Who, who said that!"
"Can't you guarantee that I will survive under that big lizard? It's fine if I don't die. Anyway, my body is useless, and a cripple is a cripple."
Liu Yu said in a nonchalant tone.
God's emotions are of course very light, and it is so difficult to even get his favor—
If those soft and flattering tricks are not working, she can only fight with blood and life.
