It's a different feeling to communicate with Bayonetta when she was a child. Bayonetta in this era is not an easy-to-serve young lady. Her temper is as unpredictable as the rain in June. She is arrogant, bad-tempered, and a shopaholic. As well as her bloodthirsty character, she is completely different from the little Loli next to Le Yuan.
In the past, Ceresa looked like she was only five or six years old. She was timid and loved to cry. When Le Yuan showed that she wanted to leave, she ran up to Le Yuan and grabbed one of Le Yuan's hands. Feet, begging Le Yuan to accompany her.
"Celesa, do you know what kind of children mothers hate the most?"
"Um?"
Hearing Le Yuan suddenly talk about such a topic, Ceresa relished the taste of the fruity lollipop in her mouth while burying her head into the doll in her arms. For Ceresa, she didn't even have a clear idea of her mother, and her memory of her mother was already blurry.
"Mom hates crybabies the most, so Ceresa must be strong and don't show a crying face even when facing monsters..."
"Brother, have you met Ceresa's mother?"
"I haven't seen it, but all mothers hope that their children will be strong. I think your mother has the same feelings!"
Just when Le Yuan and Ceresa were communicating with each other, Bayonetta of this era finally came to Le Yuan under the guidance of intuition.
"Why... why are you here? Is this your daughter? Cheshire?"
Upon seeing Le Yuan, Bayonetta immediately sneered at him mercilessly. After dealing with Le Yuan for so many years, how could Bayonetta not know that Le Yuan had always been alone? How could such a daughter appear out of thin air
Bayonetta's ridicule was about to reap the consequences. She had just described Ceresa as Le Yuan's daughter, and the next second Ceresa said something that made her almost choke to death.
"Mommy—Mommy—"
Bayonetta, a witch who hunted angels without blinking an eye, was acting like an ordinary woman at the moment, staring blankly at Ceresa as she threw her over and hugged her thigh.
Faced with Ceresa's shout and the move of hugging her thigh, Bayonetta was shocked at first, and then unknown anger ignited in her heart. She looked up at Le Yuan with beastly anger in her eyes.
"Cheshire, did you plan this? Or maybe you really want to attack me, and you brought such a little girl to teach her to talk like this!"
It's not so strange that Bayonetta would have such an idea. After all, it's impossible for ordinary girls to appear where they are now, and how could ordinary people catch Bayonetta and call out "Mom" without any fun? No matter how you look at it, Yuan's instigation is too coincidental, isn't it
Facing the glare from Bayonetta, Le Yuan spread his hands and looked helpless. It looked like he was watching a joke, but in fact Le Yuan was carefully observing Bayonetta's brain. Perhaps even she herself didn't know it. Under the hidden flow of her own magic power, a small, almost unnoticed magic power condensation carried a fatal danger.
Success! Le Yuan's plan was declared successful the moment he actually witnessed Bayonetta, and the next step was to ensure that Ceresa was safe before the Eye of the World was summoned.
Just as he was about to hand over the two bodies to Bayonetta and leave, who knew that Bayonetta, the protagonist, was worthy of being possessed by the disaster star. She had just appeared when the light door opened again in the sky. It seemed that the angel was about to attack. The Second Coming.
"Bayonetta, take care of that child. If you want to understand your past, don't let that child get hurt!"
As he said this, Le Yuan put a small cloth bag in Ceresa's hand, touched her head at the same time and said, "Here, there are your favorite candies in it, get along well with mom!"
"Hey, wait! I don't care about this little guy, give it to you!"
Seeing that Le Yuan was about to leave, Bayonetta looked at the angel rushing towards her, and directly lifted Ceresa who was hugging her lap in her hands, and then ignored Ceresa's expression of wanting to cry, He threw Ceresa directly behind Le Yuan like a ball.
Snapped-
Feeling the "attack" from behind, Le Yuan naturally refused to let it go. If something really went wrong with this little guy, everything in the future would change.
Turning around as fast as lightning, Le Yuan looked at the unabated Ceresa. For a moment, everything around him became silent, everything turned into mercury, and the world "stopped".
Looking at the world that had stopped, Le Yuan hugged Ceresa's body with both hands. At the same time, the Cheshire Cat doll that escaped from Ceresa's hands in mid-air was put back into Ceresa's arms. The impact on Ceresa disappeared.
When the effect of mercury time dissipated, everything around her returned to normal operating mode, and Ceresa's screams continued.
Bang—
With a gentle flick on Ceresa's forehead, Le Yuan woke her up from her frightened state.
"Little guy, your 'mommy' is really ruthless. If I hadn't taken action just now, you would have been miserable!"
Being held in Le Yuan's arms, Ceresa, who was originally so frightened that she couldn't stop crying, immediately stopped crying.
"Ooooo-Mommy, I want Mommy!"
Even though she had just been thrown away by Bayonetta, Ceresa still seemed determined to follow her.
But it's no wonder, Bayonetta does have an aura that draws her close to Ceresa. The two have the same ability, not to mention Bayonetta's mature witch aura.
It is not unimaginable that the disappeared woman, Ceresa, would regard her future self Bayonetta as the mommy whose memory was already somewhat vague, but such a misunderstanding may also be misleading. , someone specifically mistook Ceresa for Rosa.
"Little guy, eat your candy!" Le Yuan took out a lollipop from the bag and stuffed it into Ceresa's mouth. Then he looked at Bayonetta who was still freely shuttled among a group of Celestial Master Bells and said, "Remember to come to me, this little guy is still waiting for her mommy to pick her up!"
Bang bang bang—
A series of rapid fires from both guns, countless lower-level angels' corpses disappeared without a trace under such attacks, turning into golden light.
After getting some time, Bayonetta looked in the direction of Le Yuan and said in a loud voice: "Remember, you still need an explanation from me!"
Just after saying this, Bayonetta was once again entangled by countless angels.
Holding Ceresa, Le Yuan didn't even care about the scattered angels blocking Le Yuan. Any monsters that were up to 5 meters close to Le Yuan were turned into pieces.
It took no more than 10 minutes to get out of the building, which was much less convenient than when Le Yuan broke in.
Soon after coming out, Le Yuan took Ceresa to settle down in a tea restaurant in Vigrid. At first, Ceresa was noisy and wanted to see Bayonetta, but as Le Yuan ordered a lot of delicious food, she finally calmed down.
Compared to Le Yuan, who was the main force, Ceresa's stomach couldn't eat much. As Le Yuan took Ceresa to dine, Ceresa's face showed a look of anticipation: "Cheshire..."
"Cheshire is not me, my name is Le Yuan! Isn't Cheshire held in your hand?"
It's not a good sign to be named by a child on a doll. Le Yuan patiently corrected him several times before Selesa stopped calling him by this name.
"Hmm - Le Yuan, when will mom come back? Ceresa really wants to see her..."
Ceresa looked eagerly looking forward to it, and even the sundae drink placed in front of her felt dull.
"What does Ceresa want to do after seeing Mommy?"
"Theresa has a lot, a lot of things she wants to say to mommy, even if it's just for one day, I want mommy to be with me!"
Just like that, Le Yuan took advantage of the time and took little Ceresa to wander around the streets of Vigrid. Perhaps because she had been imprisoned in the past, Ceresa seemed so curious about everything in the outside world. She looked around in a lively manner under the leadership of Le Yuan.
As night fell, under the guidance of the magical power specially left by Le Yuan, he finally found Le Yuan and Ceresa who were enjoying dinner.
Seeing Ceresa squinting her eyes and enjoying the hug, Bayonetta felt helpless.
"Little one, let me say it again, I am not your mommy!"
"But, but you are the mother..."
Helpless, Bayonetta turned her head and looked at Le Yuan who had already finished her meal opposite. She pointed at the tip of Le Yuan's nose and said, "Now, you should explain to me why you are here and what is happening with this little guy." What's going on?"
Although Bayonetta has always rejected Ceresa, after such a long period of contact, even Bayonetta herself had some indescribable feelings. She deeply understood the situation in front of her. I'm afraid Leisha is no less important to her than her own life.
"It doesn't matter what the purpose of my coming here is. What's important is that I don't intend to leave this city in such despair. And she is extremely important to both you and me. Now your life has been linked to hers." We are closely connected, if you don’t want to die, protect her!”
Five minutes had passed since Le Yuan finished speaking. Bayonetta just stared at Le Yuan's face without speaking. The two sides were in rare silence. Bayonetta seemed to want to find flaws in Le Yuan's face, but she couldn't see anything.
In the end, Bayonetta left, leaving the restaurant with a reluctant Ceresa. She couldn't get anything she wanted from Le Yuan, so she was going to try to get useful information out of Ceresa's mouth.
