Chapter 106 [Eyes] You must make them wary and fearful...

The days in Yoko Village are lonelier than the nights.

The stench of blood in the air permeated every pore of the tombstones.

Vifiya stood quietly in front of the tombstone, staring at the word "Hannah" on it in a daze.

The cold wind penetrated her collar and she remained motionless.

She heard footsteps behind her, and the person walked shoulder to shoulder with her, looking down at the several finely crafted candies in front of the tombstone.

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

Vifiya's eyes moved slightly, and then she turned her head and looked at the person who came. Kaihakan's injury had been completely healed by Jewanlin. He was forced to rest for a night by Letisha, and his condition was much better than before.

Vifiya looked away and replaced the tombstone.

Just when Kaihakan thought she wouldn't speak, he heard her soft voice, her emotions unclear: "I didn't save them."

So don't thank me.

He suddenly stopped, and felt something shaking him violently from the inside out. He lowered his head, not knowing what was going on, and suddenly remembered the way she killed him without hesitation. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at her.

She is still the same, calm and emotionless. No wonder the leader admires her.

"My Lord Marquis, thank you for saving Levi and me." He said solemnly. The tragedy of Yoko Village should not affect her. To be fair, this is a matter that the Dukedom of Haihefu should solve on its own. As the lord of another region, she has done enough for the Dukedom of Haihefu.

Vifiya did not respond to him, still in a daze, but her mind couldn't help but think about Benedict.

As the culprit of this incident, she had no evidence to point to him.

She knew very well in her heart that even if there was, Benedict would have his own way out.

She couldn't help feeling a little irritated. Her eyes lingered on Hannah's tombstone for a long time, and the cold wind made her cheeks red.

She lowered her eyes slightly and breathed a sigh of relief. She was anxious. With the Pope's status, it would not be that easy.

There was another problem, Raylord. She didn't know exactly how Benedict had made the deal with him, but the only thing she was sure of was that Raylord was a man who did what he wanted, and in this life, he had an unprecedented obsession with herself.

Neve also joined them. She could guess Neve's purpose, which was related to [Vifiya].

Thinking of this, her eyes dimmed, and [Vifiya], like the ripples on a lake, gently nodded and caressed the name.

For some reason, the two words "Hannah" on the tombstone suddenly overlapped infinitely with five completely different words, and the words above became "Vifiya" in a blur.

On the cold tombstone, [Vifiya] was engraved.

Her heart sank suddenly, her breathing became heavier in an instant, her pale fingertips moved slightly, and she moved forward little by little, touching the tombstone.

No.

It's an illusion.

Once upon a time, she was the only person in the world who knew that [Vifiya] was gone, but now, there was another Neve.

"fool."

A familiar voice, a familiar helplessness, her fingertips trembled invisibly.

Her impulse told her to call out, but her reason pulled her back in an instant, realizing it was just a little auditory hallucination.

The rough feeling brought her back to her thoughts. The words on the tombstone were "Hannah".

Yeah, [Vefia], I'm stupid.

I'll keep going, but before I do, let me be sad for a moment, just for a moment.

Kaihakan stood by and saw her suddenly touch Hannah's tombstone. Even though the Marquis of Kesley was commemorating her, he did not show any other emotion.

Such people will drive themselves crazy sooner or later.

After a moment's thought, he spoke carefully, "Hannah gets along well with the children in the village, but she's very competitive. Whenever she has snowball fights with them, she doesn't hold back." He paused, "She's a lot like me when I was little. Every time I see her, it's like seeing myself."

Vifia had already withdrawn her hand and stood aside again. When he mentioned Hannah, she opened her mouth to say something, but for some reason, Benedict's light purple eyes suddenly appeared in her mind.

The emotions he inadvertently revealed were extremely subtle.

Ah. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, her face remained unchanged, but her heart beat faster, making her head pound.

It's like seeing myself.

So that's how it is. He was looking at himself, looking at himself through her.

Don't underestimate any tiny details. You have to seize them, weave all the tiny details into a net, aim at their vital points, find their tiny flaws, and give them a fatal blow.

Even if you can't kill them, you must make them feel wary and afraid when they mention your name.

She was not a good learner, at least not in the ways that [Vefiya] had taught her.

but……

"Do you like candy too?" Vifiya asked casually.

Finally hearing her speak again, Kaihakan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and followed her words: "I won't like it when I grow up."

His eyes fell on the candies in front of Hannah's grave. Hannah liked to eat candies.

As Livifia turned around, he hurriedly spoke to her figure: "Mr. Marquis! Please go to Lord Jewanlin's tent."

Vifiya did not respond, but turned and headed towards Jewanlin's tent.

Kaihakan's gaze returned to the tombstone, and after a moment, a voice rang out: "I'm sorry."

Just two words, dissipated with the wind.

The knights patrolled consciously away from Jevanlin's tent. Vifiya glanced at the ruined entrance of Yoko Village. Levi silently gripped Elliot's sword.

She turned her head and stopped looking. She opened Jewanlin's tent without any hindrance. Except Jewanlin, everyone including Salisi was inside, even Osha and Hefa.

Also, her eyes briefly swept over the man in the black tights, the man who appeared in the picture given to her by Qingzhu, when he was controlling her body.

She didn't care who he was. Since he appeared here and Salis and the others had no objection, he was trustworthy at the moment.

"How are you?" Salis took a few steps forward, lightly grasped her arm, looked her up and down, and breathed a sigh of relief when she was sure that she was fine.

"I'm Xiu Foorella, Miss Vifia." Xiu stepped forward and put his hand on his heart to salute. "It's my fault for not introducing myself to you in time yesterday."

Vifiya looked over and nodded when she heard that. "No, I heard that it was you who helped Arnold, so I should be the one thanking you."

Xiu stared directly into the crimson eyes before him, suppressing his curiosity about her. "Compared to your contribution to the magic world, it's nothing."

"How long are you going to be polite?" Hefa couldn't help but speak, his eyes looking at Xiu.

Xiu turned around and returned to his usual self. He raised an eyebrow and looked at the wooden table: "This thing can't be figured out in just a few words."

"Don't just sit there." Jewanlin said rudely while flipping through the pages of the book, and grabbed another book next to him and threw it at him.

Xiu took it reluctantly, nodded to Vifiya, and walked back to sit next to Jewanlin.

Vifiya had already communicated with Jewanlin yesterday, but...

She looked at the thing on the table with some confusion, a ball of black smoke.

"When you were trapped in Yoko Village, I looked around and found many corpses in a cave. I preliminarily determined that it was the experimental site for the birth of Quixley." Salis led her to the side of the black fog.

Isidore had been paying attention to her since she entered. He then added, "When I returned to the real Yoko Village, I saw an eye. Not surprisingly, it's related to Quixley."

He recalled the appearance of the giant eye and continued, "The eye could have dodged my attack, but it deliberately didn't defend itself. After the eye disappeared, this mass was left behind."

"It devoured the black slime that Lord Salis brought to the birthplace of Quisley." Kaharun scratched his head, his eyes fixed on the motionless black mist trapped by Isidore's magic.

"This thing..." Qingzhu's voice came in her mind, "Do you want to listen to it?"

Vifiya lowered her eyes calmly and stared at the black fog without refusing.

Osa, who had been paying attention to the black fog, suddenly found that it stopped flipping and remained motionless.

"Hello, I'm [Eyes]."

A soft female voice echoed in Vifiya's mind.

"Excuse me, but I came to see you because I have some doubts."

The straightforward statement of purpose made Vifiya more alert.

"Why are you angry?"

"Why would you choose to destroy the falsehood of Joko Village by hurting only yourself?"

Without waiting for Vifiya's response, he continued to ask, "Do you think you are less important than anyone else?"

Vifiya's expression did not change. She quickly made a preliminary judgment about this thing. Its questions were presumptuous and straightforward, just like a child with a strong curiosity about the world.

She tried to respond to it in her heart, but found that it was just like the green candle, they could only unilaterally convey what they wanted to express in her mind.

“Since you know it’s an offense, you should be prepared for me not to answer.” Vifiya said softly.

The sudden and inexplicable words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

[Eyes] was silent for a moment. "I know." He paused. "I just hope you can answer."

"What kind of answer do you want?" Vifiya asked back.

"The answer in your heart."

Vifiya became quiet, her eyes narrowed slightly, with a dark scrutiny hidden in them.

Everyone who realized she was communicating with the black mist stopped what they were doing.

Weifeiya suddenly smiled, and she did not deliberately hide the calculation in her eyes: "I also have questions. As a premise, I will answer your questions as appropriate based on your answers."

"Is this a deal?" its voice was filled with doubt. "In my understanding, humans call this a deal."

"Yes," said Vifiya.

[Eyes] was silent for a moment, and then the voice came again: "Excuse me."

"What role did you play in the incident at Yoko Village?"
