Chapter 290 The Witch's Following Moment
Chapter 290 The Witch's Following Moment
"How should I put it..."
"Nostalgic?"
"Miss?"
"Or rather, it's just plain boring..."
The empty room was like a depressing cage, with doors and windows locked on all sides, standing quietly, without lights or heating.
In the darkness, only the sound of the cold wind echoed.
Xu Xi raised his palm and released the power of law that was the same as Krisha's, but not as vast:
"Purification."
The biting cold wind subsided instantly.
The moonlight shines through the window, falls on the floor, and gently creates a halo of light.
The old house has been restored to good repair.
But that was only appearance. The decay of the interior of the house and the marks left by time were still clearly imprinted and could not be repaired by Xu Xi's magic.
It’s not that it can’t be done.
But I think it's meaningless.
"Next..." Xu Xi glanced around the room. The room was too empty and there was no furniture to sit on.
Fortunately, there is still an old partner to sit with.
Snap——
Xu Xi walked to the corner, took out the folded wheelchair, opened it, and sat on it with ease.
Use a little force in your arms.
Drive the wheels to rotate.
With a slight "creaking" sound, Xu Xi's wheelchair moved forward, circling around and around until it stopped in front of the window of the old house.
"..."
The moonlight shines on the wheelchair and the many parts on it.
The chair and the person's figure were stretched out.
On the floor at the back, a long, oblique, inky smudge is formed.
Empty house.
Xu Xi chuckled a few times, but soon, the laughter turned into nostalgia and complexity.
"In the past, I always wanted to get out of the wheelchair and walk on my own two healthy legs."
"Now, I'm reminiscing about the old days."
Xu Xi was sitting in a wheelchair.
Just like when I was lame before.
Wait quietly at the window, gaze at the neon lights on the streets outside, watch the smiling faces of people talking, and feel the faint smell of fireworks.
Very quiet.
Very lonely.
Why did you come here tonight?
I think maybe it was influenced by the teacher and Ah Niu.
Watching his former teachers and partners heading towards their own bright futures, Xu Xi was filled with emotion as he felt the intersection of time.
"Simulation world, reality world."
"The accumulation of multiple simulation experiences has also helped me grow mentally."
Night is falling.
The cold wind hums softly.
Xu Xi opened the window, allowing the cold wind to blow into the house.
Feel the cold wind blowing across your cheeks and neck, and feel the reality of the world with that icy touch.
It's not self-abuse.
I just want to see the outside world clearly.
But some people are reluctant to do so.
She walked out from the shadows at the back, her steps silent and her movements precise, and closed the window to Xu Xi's surprise.
"Teacher, this is not good for your health."
In the quiet room, a peaceful voice echoed.
Like a tiny stream flowing quietly, without any ups and downs, yet inexplicably pure and ethereal.
"Well, I won't do that next time, Krisa."
Maybe there was a pause.
He looked at the newcomer hesitantly, at the long gray-silver hair blending with the moonlight, and finally couldn't help asking:
"Krisha, why are you here?"
"Looking at you, listening to you, feeling you, and being there at all times because of your needs."
Krisha's answer was simple.
She has been paying attention to Xu Xi all the time, every minute and every second, never relaxing for a moment. As long as Xu Xi needs her, the witch will arrive at the first time.
but.
After hearing this answer, Xu Xi still had doubts.
"Didn't I block the fluctuations of time and space and whereabouts?"
In response, Krisa remained silent for a moment, then pointed her finger at the necklace Xu Xi was wearing.
The highest crown.
That is the freeloader from the Supreme Witch.
"You are using... my power."
Xu Xi also fell silent.
Very good and powerful.
It was his negligence.
I had intended to be alone and quiet, reminiscing about the good old days, but now it seems that I can't do it.
"Sit down, Krisha," Xu Xi raised his hand to gather the moonlight, trying to use light magic to create a chair, but the witch rejected the suggestion.
"Teacher, I can just stand..."
The gray-silver hair falls quietly.
Some of it fell on Xu Xi's neck.
The witch came behind Xu Xi and gently pushed the wheelchair to help Xu Xi keep it stable.
Although this is an unnecessary move.
But she did it anyway.
Her expression is indifferent, her movements are focused, and her posture is extremely upright. Anyone who sees her will think she is an extremely loyal maid.
"You don't have to do that, Krisa."
"Yes, Mentor."
I know it, but I won’t change it.
The witch is unexpectedly stubborn at times.
For example, now, she refused to sit down and insisted on helping Xu Xi stabilize the wheelchair, even though Xu Xi had no injuries and only sat in the old wheelchair out of concern.
In this regard, the Xu family could only let it go.
"Teacher."
"Why are you here?"
The house was empty.
Krisa pushed the wheelchair and asked Xu Xi in a calm and confused tone.
She didn't understand why Xu wanted to leave the courtyard and return to this old house just to sit here quietly, watch the moon and observe the lives of ordinary people.
I don’t understand. I really don’t understand.
"There's really no reason, Krisa."
Xu Xi smiled, looked at the street outside the window, and continued to watch the bustling crowd in the snowy night.
"I came here because I wanted to see it."
"If I must explain why..."
"Maybe I'm a little bit nostalgic for the old days."
The old days?
"You mean the time before you awakened your abilities, when you were still an ordinary person?"
"Not only that, there are also experiences with Mo Li, and experiences with you. In short... a lot more."
Still don't understand.
The witch tilted her head.
She doesn't care about the past, nor does she miss it.
As long as I can see you, as long as I can meet you again, the dark past will turn into a bright future and continue to lead the way forward.
Just you, only you.
The meaning of shadow is to follow the light.
"Do you... want to go back to Allenson City?" The witch was not interested in other things, but she thought that Xu Xi might be interested.
She said that during the process of upgrading the Earth, the magical world was divided into many realms, including the former city of Allenson.
Xu Xi's expression was surprise at first, then laughter.
"Hahaha--"
"No thanks, Krisha."
"I appreciate your kindness, but Allenson...is no longer the same Allenson as before."
The city of Allenson in the magical world once suffered a divine punishment directed and performed by the gods themselves.
Although it was rebuilt afterwards.
But it is no longer the same as the Xu family was familiar with.
Of course, Xu Xi believed that with Krisa's ability, he could trace back to the original Allenson, but that was still not what he needed.
Remembering past experiences does not mean reliving them.
Xu Xi smiled, his eyes softening: "Anyway, thank you, Chrisa."
