The days passed like this day by day, and the rematch had begun. It's just that the first day of competition was for the first group of the two rankings, and the second group of Annelotte's competition will not be held until the second day.
Regnar did not go to watch the game on the first day. He stayed in the house without seeing anyone. He originally wanted to sleep in the house all day and use this method to survive the last day. Because Regnar had suffered a lot in the past few days, and because he was eager to see Annelotte, the boy's days in the past few days could not be described as an exaggeration.
So he expected that this last day would be the most difficult day, and sleeping was the best way to kill time. But he didn't expect that he couldn't sleep at all due to his manic mood.
There was a gentle knock on the door.
"I'll have lunch later, so you don't have to worry about me," Regnar said.
"I'm not here to ask you to have lunch." Eileen's voice rang outside the door: "Brother Regnar, can I come in?"
Regnar hesitated for a moment and finally opened the door.
After Irene walked in, she casually found a place to sit down. Over the past few days, she and Regna had completely gotten rid of the strangeness they had not seen for several years. Now her relationship with Regnar is basically not much different from the past.
"Is something wrong?" Regnar poured a cup of hot coffee from the thermos and handed it to Irene.
Since three fingers were missing on her right hand, Erin could only take the coffee with her left hand. She smiled gratefully and then said, "You have been very anxious these days."
Irene's words were not a question, but a statement. Regnar's anxiety was almost written on his face, and even Inelise could tell that he was abnormal. They naturally understood the reason, and because of this, they didn't know how to enlighten Regnar. After all, this is Regnar's personal issue. Although Kordak and Vera are his eldest brothers and sisters, it is not convenient to ask about this kind of thing. And Inelis is just a little girl, what can she say? Woolen cloth
But Irene was different. She was Regnar's childhood playmate. Strictly speaking, she was the one who spent the longest time with Regnar and the one who understood him best. Therefore, Regnar's relationship with her was even closer than that with Kordak, and they talked about everything. It was, is, and will be in the future.
"Yes." Regnar did not deny it.
"Is it because of Miss Anne?" Irene asked.
"Yes." Regnar nodded.
"Tell me about it." Eileen said, "I don't think you can face Miss Anne like this."
"..." Regnar was silent for a moment, and then said, "I like Annie."
"I know." Irene nodded. Although the expression on her face was gentle and calm, there was still a hint of sadness in her eyes when Regnar said these words.
"I told you before." Regnar took a deep breath and said, "Annie once believed in me. She...she has been helping me wholeheartedly. She almost lost her life for me and the boss."
"..." Irene heard Regna say this on that starry night on the rooftop.
"But..." Regnar said with some pain, "But I didn't believe her at the last critical moment. My teacher once said that although Annie was beautiful and strong, she grew up in such an environment. She doesn’t have any friends either. So, she is actually a little autistic in her heart, and I may be the first person she mustered up the courage to try to get close to... "
"She trusts you without reservation, but you are doubting her." Eileen said softly: "What you do will really make Miss Anne very sad."
"So I want to apologize to her." Regnar said: "I want to get her forgiveness. However, I am afraid that she will have a fear of trust between people because of what happened before. This is what I am most afraid of. What will happen. She may not even forgive me, but I don’t want her to be disappointed in the world because of me. If this is really the case, I’m afraid I will live with guilt for the rest of my life.”
"Is this what makes you anxious?" Erin asked.
"Yes." Regnar nodded: "I miss Anne very much. I want to see her, but I am afraid that when I see her, I will find that she has turned into what I imagined. This is very contradictory, so I It has been very irritable.”
Irene smiled gently after hearing this. She looked at Regnar and said, "Brother Regnar, you are still like this."
"What?"
"I've always been conflicted, worried about gains and losses, always thinking too much but never having the courage to face it." Irene looked at Regna and smiled, and said, "But you made a mistake."
"What's the mistake?" Regnar asked.
"You still don't believe Miss Anne." Irene said softly.
"Huh?" Regnar was a little confused.
"Isn't it?" Eileen looked at Regnar and said, "What are you afraid of? It's that Miss Anne will lose her courage because of you and become an indifferent person. Do you think Miss Anne is really like this? Is she such a timid and arbitrary person? Will she really deny something because of a small setback? "
"..." Regnar fell into silence after listening. What Irene said reminded him of a person, and that was Balor. This guy, as Erin said, denied a world because of a setback. He is both timid and arbitrary. And Annie, will she be the same as Balor
"No, it's not!" Regnar suddenly understood, and he said with confidence: "Anne will never be that kind of person. She has always been a smart and courageous girl! She...she is me The girl that Regnar likes! There is no way she will do this!"
Irene looked at Regna who suddenly became confident, and then smiled: "So, that's it. In fact, you don't have to be afraid of anything. Miss Anne may continue to be angry with you. But, she must not be that kind coward."
"That's natural!" Regnar suddenly brightened up because of Irene's words. He immediately laughed heartily. This guy suddenly stepped forward and kissed Irene lightly on the forehead, and then kissed him again. The half-elf girl hugged her hard.
"Thank you, Irene." Regnar took a step back, looked at Irene who was in a daze and said with a smile.
"Disgusting!" Irene blushed continuously, and she glared at Regna in embarrassment. It was also a kiss on the forehead, but Irene's reaction was much gentler than that of Annelotte. This half-elf girl was gentle and kind, and she couldn't do things like slap in the face.
"If she wasn't burned, she must be a beautiful girl." Regnar felt a pain in his heart for no reason as he looked at Irene's ugly face. He suddenly said: "Eileen."
"Um?"
"I will heal your injuries." Regnar's expression was more solemn than ever before: "I, Regnar, hereby promise that I will definitely heal the burns on your face and replace your severed fingers. I will Eliminate all the traces of suffering left on your body, turn you into what you should be, turn you into a beautiful girl."
"Brother Regnar, please stop making such jokes." Irene was not excited when she heard Regnar's words, but her eyes became a little sad: "I know that I am an ugly person and I will never change in this life. "
"How is it possible that you can't change?" Regnar grinned and said: "There are many powerful and magical powers in this world. Not to mention restoring you to your original appearance, even if you want to become a man, it is probably not difficult. Don't worry, this Leave the matter to your brother, everything will be taken care of!"
"You are the man!" As soon as Irene said it, she realized that these words were not harmful to Regnar at all.
"Of course I am a man." Regnar shrugged.
"Hmph!" Irene pouted, and then said: "Since you are fine, I will leave to avoid being bullied by you here."
"Hehe, while Sister Vera and Little Yi Ni are not here, I can finally bully you again today, haha!" Regna said with a smile.
"Humph!" Irene turned and left after drinking her coffee.
"Irene." Regnar suddenly called out to the half-elf who had already walked to the door.
"What? What else is going on?"
"You have never met Annie? Why are you so confident in her?" Regnar asked.
Irene thought for a while, then showed a bright smile: "Because I have confidence in you, Brother Regnar. How could the girl you like be so ordinary? Besides, shouldn't people be mutually exclusive?" Do you trust me?"
Regnar was stunned for a moment, and then he also laughed: "You are right, you make me optimistic and positive every time, and thank you this time. Also, you can come back to me... really good."
Erin smiled sheepishly, then turned and left.
