Chapter 191 The Existence of the Crossover of Time
The golden sunlight fell on the green grass, and butterflies fluttered up and down.
A pair of hands reached out cautiously, and then "bang." The hands closed, catching nothing.
"Hey, Fei Yi, you're so boring." The little fat boy yawned. "It's lunchtime now. If Maggie catches us, we'll be in trouble."
"Are you still afraid of being caught?" Fei Yi walked nonchalantly towards the direction where the butterfly was fluttering its wings.
The grass rustled. Nerys stepped softly and stopped beside the fat boy. "So, what's the matter with you calling us out?"
She glanced around and immediately felt a little strange that Eddie was not there.
Fei Yi slowly stopped walking upon hearing Nerys's voice. A rare look of unease appeared on her usually nonchalant face. "I've always felt like something's been a little strange on the island lately."
The little fat man looked around when he heard this. Everything was the same as he remembered. "What's strange?"
Nerys also showed a puzzled look.
Fei Yi turned her head and saw the expressions of both of them, then she raised her head.
The sun was blinding. She faced it, suppressing the slight fear rising from her heart. "Can't you...see?"
In Fei Yi's eyes, the originally azure sky was divided into irregular shapes. The outline of the sun was clearly visible, and next to it were two round green moons. Colorful stars were flashing violently.
On the other side of Sangsong Tower, which Fei Yi and the others couldn't see.
A heavily made-up woman leaned against the wall, listening to the voices of the three children inside. She raised her eyes and stared at the strange scene in the sky with a half-smile.
She raised the corners of her lips: "Found it."
——
Wooden wine glasses clash with each other, splashing wine onto the table.
Granny Mopu wiped the bar and glanced at Vifiya, whose attention was fixed on the adults drinking. "Xiao Hui, no matter how curious you are, I won't sell you any wine."
After a pause, she said excitedly, as if thinking of something, "When you come of age, you must come to me for your first glass of wine. I will brew a barrel of Xinglangbai specially for you."
Weifeiya looked away, her eyes filled with surprise. She shook her head and said, "There's no need to be so troublesome, mother-in-law."
Before Granny Mopu could speak, a villager nearby put down his glass and said, "Don't refuse, Xiaohui! Granny Mopu's Xinglangbai is a drink even the royal family has had!"
"Yes, if we want to drink it, we have to wait until the God's birthday every year."
Grandma Mopu's face was full of pride: "When it comes to Xinglangbai, my craftsmanship is not worse than anyone else. Don't refuse."
The villagers of Monbeqin Village were too enthusiastic. From seven days ago to now, Vifiya had not been able to successfully refuse anything they gave her.
Everything else is fine, you can use it directly or eat it, but Grandma Mopu's wine...
She didn't belong here, no matter what.
Whether it is soul or time.
She doesn't belong to any of them.
She didn't know when she would need to go back.
She smiled gently and said, "Mrs. Salis told me about my mother-in-law's cooking skills before I came here. It's lively here, so I won't drink secretly. I will definitely not embarrass my mother-in-law."
Grandma Mopu laughed heartily and reached out to touch her head. Vifiya could feel the roughness of her palm. “Of course I know. You are a good child.”
Otherwise she wouldn't be willing to brew Xinglangbai for her.
Vifiya tried her best to suppress her slight discomfort and took the opportunity to continue, "I'm just curious about what the uncles said."
Hearing her words, the villagers started talking at once.
"Are you talking about the incident with the Segarot Empire?"
“Even children are interested.”
"Who wouldn't be interested? That's the only elf in the East Continent."
"I heard that the elf sent her only son to train with the Royal Knights."
"So small, probably about the same size as Xiao Hui, right?"
Vifiya keenly caught their word choice, only.
She secretly observed everyone's expressions, and no one objected.
Her heart sank suddenly, but fortunately she had been giving herself hints so as not to lose her composure.
Vifiya's fingertips trembled. Why did Debbie know?
Why did we go back to the past...
Debbie's last words as we parted in the bush that day were still ringing in my ears.
"Now, it's your sixteenth life."
…
The midday sun was sweltering. Vifiya followed her memory and ran back to Sally's house.
This time is what Salis considers nap time.
As soon as she entered the door, she saw her flipping through an old, yellowed book.
Hearing the noise, Salis turned around: "You're back."
Vifiya nodded, hiding all the emotions that shouldn't be shown.
Before going up the stairs, she asked, "Aren't you going to rest?"
Salis smiled and said, "Adults don't need naps, only children do. Go to bed now."
Seeing that she started to drive people away, Vifiya did not insist any longer.
She went upstairs and opened the door quietly.
Vefiya walked quietly to her bed, not wanting to wake Isidore.
Who knew that when she turned around, a pair of bright silver eyes were staring at him.
She asked, "Can't sleep?"
The boy shook his head and answered seriously: "Wait for you."
Vifiya's eyes softened: "You don't have to wait for me next time."
The boy blinked, somewhat confused.
Vifiya climbed onto the bed and covered herself with the quilt.
Salis originally prepared two rooms, but Isidore seemed very insecure, so she had no choice but to arrange for him to share a room with her.
The boy's eyes didn't leave her. She seemed... unhappy...
He didn't know why.
He wanted to ask, but the girl turned her head and said, "Go to sleep."
The boy could only put the question back into his mind: "Okay."
Vifiya closed her eyes, and on the other side where the boy couldn't see her, she clenched the quilt with her hands.
If Debbie had said this in the past, it would have been difficult to verify its authenticity.
After all, she traveled through time when [Vefiya] was fifteen years old.
In the past sixteen lives, all the differences were due to her active changes.
That is to say, before she traveled through time, all sixteen lives were [Vifiya], and [Vifiya's] experiences were no different.
The only one who can make the difference is Osa.
Only in the seventeenth generation did Osha exist.
Perhaps because she had many experiences with Osha, she was extremely vivid in her memory. When she suddenly thought that she did not exist in the world now, Vifiya felt a sense of indescribable melancholy.
She couldn't help but laugh at herself. She wasn't used to this. People were indeed greedy. What should she do if she was really forced to do so?
Huh? The girl suddenly blinked in confusion on the bed. Existence?
Yes, her breathing became faster. Now [Vifiya] is still alive, she is still alive...
Her nose felt sore and her eyes turned red for a moment. She turned her back to the boy so that he wouldn't notice anything was wrong with her.
[Vefiya] is somewhere in this world, in the Marquis's mansion in Seronil. She still exists, she hasn't disappeared yet...
She hasn't disappeared yet...
She tried hard not to let her tears fall. After all, if she woke up with swollen eyes, it would be difficult to explain.
What is seven-year-old [Vefiya] doing?
In the memories given to her by [Vifiya], the seven-year-old [Vifiya] was doubting the world and looking for a way to gain freedom for herself.
She learned to observe everyone, to connect everything in every detail, to secretly hide the knife and sharpen it, and to learn that only herself is the most reliable.
Vifiya wanted to see [Vifiya] very much, but she knew she couldn’t.
Whether it's for her or for myself, I can't do that.
Vifiya secretly took a deep breath until all her emotions were suppressed and her heartbeat returned to its original frequency.
She listened to the steady breathing of the boy in the other bed; it seemed he was already asleep.
She got up carefully, put on her shoes, took a few steps and turned to look at the boy. He was not awake.
Professor Salis must have learned a lot about magic these days, otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would open his eyes whenever she made a move.
She was going to find Salis.
No matter which past life she returns to, she is here now and she has to do what she thinks she should do.
For example, determine what the price Isidore needs to pay is.
“Knock knock.”
There was a knock on the wooden door. Sally, who had returned to the study to organize documents, looked up. She put down her quill and hurried to open the door. There was only one person who would come to her at this time.
The wooden door opened, and a pair of black eyes came into view. It was indeed her.
She didn't ask Vifiya why she didn't sleep, she moved aside to let her in.
It was not a good time to eat dessert, so Salis filled a cup of warm tea for Vifiya sitting opposite her.
"Lord Salis, please set up the soundproofing magic."
A girl's voice came from the other side, and Salis paused.
She did not avoid Xiao Hui when she taught the boy magic, but Xiao Hui always seemed to lack interest, so she suggested that she go out for a walk.
As long as Xiao Hui doesn't leave Monbeqin Village, she will be absolutely safe.
She pushed the warm tea in front of Vifia. She had only taught the boy the basic types of magic and various basic knowledge.
She hadn't mentioned the soundproofing magic yet.
She stretched out her fingers, and light floated at her fingertips, quickly expanding to cover the entire room.
"I know he is the 'Goddess's Favorite'." Vifiya said softly, "Lord Salis, please tell me, what is the price he needs to pay?"
Salis's surprise flashed across her face, and she asked, "Who told you that?"
Vifiya shook her head: "It doesn't matter."
Salis was silent for a moment. The girl in front of her was just a child no older than ten years old, and she didn't think it was a good thing to tell her the truth.
Judging from what she had observed recently, it was very bad.
"Please tell me." The girl's eyes were firm.
Salis turned her head and glanced at her desk. She said vaguely, "I'll find a way."
"Will he die?" Vifiya asked. This was the worst possible outcome.
She had never seen Isidore in her past lives. Her eyes suddenly moved slightly. Apart from the seventeenth life, the only time she had heard anything related to him was in the sixteenth life...
Her heart trembled, and she lowered her head so that Salis would not see her surprise.
Only the sixteenth generation, on the night before his death, when he was alone with the magician, had heard his name.
And when she heard Kaharun's voice for the first time in the seventeenth life, she was completely certain that the magician was Kaharun.
Kaharun...
Her heart beat faster and faster. What were his original words?
"By the way, there's someone at Alsayin Academy who looks very familiar."
"There's a guy who looks very similar to the great magician's apprentice."
"His name is Isidore Leppezer."
Vifiya's breathing became disordered for a moment.
No wonder... No wonder...
No wonder the magician, who was always mysterious in front of ordinary people, was willing to talk about magic with her at that time, and even took the initiative to tell her the name of the great magician's apprentice.
Kaharun...
He was clearly testing!
