Chapter 524: Reasons for anger

"That's not accurate." Annelotte's tone of voice was a little weird. Although she usually eats a lot, the Frost Girl would never drink alcohol unless necessary. This time, in order to thank Angelista for her help, she also expressed her full sincerity. Although she did not take the initiative to persuade Angelista to go to the bar, she at least managed to drink until the glass was dry.

Annelotte's drinking capacity is not very good, and she is basically on the same level as the little girl Inelise. As a result, Annelotte was drunk for the first time today. Different from the snowy night when she first met Regnar, this time Annelotte was seriously drunk.

At this time, the frost girl's face was flushed, and her eyes were blurred. It was also Angelista who was with her. If it were a man, he would have been fascinated by Annelotte's various charms.

"I only remembered a small part of the things about Regnar, but the overall memory has not been restored yet." Annelotte went on to explain that maybe she was drunk, but at this time she actually took the initiative to pick up the wine bottle and give it to her again. I filled a glass myself, and then drank a little less than half of it.

"So, my method is still useful!" Angelista nodded with satisfaction. She suddenly felt that she had gained a lot today. She not only defeated Annelotte (although the victory was too big), but also He also helped Annelotte recover a little bit of her memory, and then even killed Regner. Angelista felt happy just thinking about it.

This woman is an anomaly among the dark elves. Although she is influenced by the dark elves and is very interested in profit, the fundamental driving force that drives Angelista to do things is her own heart. She is the kind of person who does whatever comes to mind, and sometimes she doesn't even need a reason. She just enjoys the process of doing things and the satisfaction of success after doing them.

Therefore, she helped Annelotte not because she valued her relationship with Annelotte or because she wanted Annelotte to owe her a favor. She just wanted to see what else she could do with her psychic powers, so she did it. And today's result still makes Angelista very satisfied.

At this time, Angelista rolled her eyes again, and another idea popped up in her head.

"I heard Regna mention it accidentally." Angelista also took a sip. Unlike Annelotte, she was an old drunkard even though she was young. Drinking so much wine only made her head drift slightly. She asked: "What is going on?"

"It was just an accident, nothing." Annelotte waved her hand gently.

"Then what is your relationship with Regnar?"

"Relationship?" Annelotte couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing this question. Doubt appeared in her ice-blue eyes, and then she shook her head: "I don't know either."

"have no idea?"

"Yes." Annelotte stretched out her index finger and tapped her temple: "I made an emergency memory backup before I lost my memory, and this backup memory contained the least things about Regnar. So, I Even now I still don’t understand what my relationship is with him.”

"Is this why you are angry?" Angelista said lightly: "Because you are very confused about the relationship between the two of you now, so you don't want anyone to mention this matter again. You are afraid of others It makes your already chaotic thinking even more confusing, and you are also afraid of a fact that you don't want to face."

"Facts?" Annelotte took another sip, then shook her head slightly and asked, "What facts are there that scare me?"

"You were afraid that you didn't love him back then." Angelista said very directly: "Because you lost your memory, you don't know what kind of feelings you had for Regnar back then. And back then, You don't seem to value the memory between you and Regnar, which shows that you don't seem to care about Regnar. Therefore, you are very afraid of this idea of yours. Because, now, you love him .”

Bang!

Annelotte slammed the table, she stared at Angelista with eyes flashing with anger, and then whispered: "I heard that there is no love in the world of dark elves, so you don't understand us either. These human emotions and these statements are just your unfounded speculations! You have not known me for a long time, and you don’t know me at all, so don’t make any unreasonable comments about me here!"

"I don't understand the feelings of you humans, nor do I understand you." Angelista smiled calmly, her eyes lit up with silver light: "But I am a psyker. When I help you recover your memory, I will inevitably peek into your inner world. At that time, I felt your feelings: you obviously wanted to get close to Regnar, which seemed to be an almost instinctive habit. But you You have never chosen to do this because you are afraid that you did not have such feelings for him before you lost your memory, and you are afraid that if you open up to him now, you may disrupt some of your previous plans."

"..." Annelotte was silent. She didn't know what she was afraid of. She wanted to get close to Regnar, but every time she did so, another feeling of resistance appeared in her heart. This extremely contradictory mentality made her very irritable, and it was also the reason why she was so angry at Angelista today.

Annelotte didn't know that before she lost her memory, she also had such a conflicting mentality. This is not because Annelotte's inner feelings are too complicated, but because there are other reasons, but for this reason, even Annelotte herself is not aware of it.

"Annie, do you mind if I call you that?" Angelista looked at Annelotte and felt that there seemed to be a chance to accomplish something interesting today.

"I don't mind." Annelotte replied in confusion. She had been drinking, and now she was so confused by Angelista's words that she didn't hear what Angelista said clearly. What is it? I just responded vaguely.

"Anne." Angelista said in a serious tone, and even imitated humans and held one of Annelotte's hands: "Don't suppress your feelings too much."

"I... wasn't depressed..." Annelotte defended in a low voice.

"Do you still insist on refusing to admit it in front of me?" Angelista said with a half-smile: "Don't forget, I am a psychic. It is easy for me to spy on other people's inner thoughts. matter."

“…”

"You like him, you know it." Angelista said seriously: "I know that you don't like my almost unrestrained indulgence in desire, but I think you should also know that, like It’s also wrong for you to keep suppressing yourself like this.”

"What do you think..." Annelotte asked hesitantly, "What should I do?"

"At least." Angelista rolled her eyes, and she said to Annelotte with a bit of provocation: "You should give that boy a chance."

"..." Annelotte was silent again, but after half a minute, she still shook her head slightly.

"I don't do too much persuasion." Angelista was not surprised by Annelotte's attitude. She shrugged nonchalantly: "Anyway, this is a private matter between you and Regnar. I said this today. Most of it is just a whim. I will only repeat one sentence: you like that man... uh... that child should only be called a boy... well, no matter how you call him, in short, you like him. You can't deny this. .”

"..." The expression on Annelotte's face was a little complicated. She seemed... a little disappointed, as if she hoped Angelista could give her more reasons to try.

However, Angelista obviously did not let Annelotte go as easily as she said. She took advantage of Annelotte's confusion to quietly activate her mental power, and then gave the drunken Frost Girl a weak mental suggestion. Annelotte's mental power is not much weaker than hers. If it is too obvious, Angelista is afraid that Annelotte will notice it after she sobers up.

But even so, being able to give the Frost Queen spiritual hints would be enough for an ordinary mage to boast about for a while. Of course, we won’t discuss whether he will be hunted down by Dark Elegy and Frost Queen after bragging.

"Okay." Angelista drank all the red wine in the glass. She put down the glass and wiped her mouth reservedly: "I enjoyed the dinner today. You might as well thank Lei for me when you get back. Gena. Just stop here today, do you want me to take you back?"

"No need." Annelotte stood up unsteadily.

"I'll give you a suggestion. You might as well go out and have a refreshing drink to sober up, and think about things carefully." A sly look flashed through Angelista's eyes: "I don't think you want to come back looking drunk. Let’s go to the academy?”

"I will." Annelotte composed herself, and then followed Angelista out of the room with some frivolity.

The lobby of Second Heaven seems a bit messy. Although it can be said to be the best private club in Merindl, it also has three levels: low, medium and high. The hall is naturally one of those cheap places where you can spend a few gold coins and enjoy yourself for a night.

The boss of Second Heaven seems to be well aware of the superior mentality of those in power. Although he has made high-end clubs well hidden, he can still vaguely observe the halls in these places. Those who can come here can secretly observe the lower-ranking people doing vulgar and rude things in the hall to release their most primitive desires. Whenever this happens, a sense of accomplishment and superiority arises spontaneously.

Annelotte's pretty face turned red when she first came here. After all, the provocative voice in the hall was too explicit. But now Annelotte was drunk, so she didn't pay that much attention.

Instead, it was Angelista on the side who couldn't help but feel something while listening. Finally, Angelista said to Annelotte: "You go back first, and I will have some fun here."
