Chapter 281 Don't Leave
The appearance of that family of three seemed to be just a minor incident, and Jiang Liyue spent the next few days living a very leisurely life.
Even when she went to the library to read, she found the complete book of dark magic again.
A hundred years ago, this dark magic book was intact and showed no signs of being torn.
Therefore, Jiang Liyue finally discovered that the page torn off a hundred years later was a dark magic that summoned souls and brought people back to life.
This dark magic requires not only the drawing of intricate arrays, but also the blood of 99 human girls and 9 top-tier vampires.
When their blood comes together, it can bring the dead back to life.
Therefore, the dark magic depicted at that ball was just like that.
Jiang Liyue wasn't stupid; she remembered Herlo saying that Hermer was an idiot and that his plan was foolish.
Whom does Hermes want to resurrect?
Jiang Liyue knew that Hermes was incredibly intelligent, yet he was willing to believe in such dark magic, all for the sake of—
Revive her.
At the same time, a system message appears: "[The quest to find the secret of the ball is complete. Do you wish to exit the instance now?]"
This system notification also proved that Jiang Liyue's guess was correct.
Jiang Liyue couldn't suppress the feeling of heartache.
She realized once again how long a century was, and how painful such an endless wait must have been for him.
Not just this instance...
Jiang Liyue recalled that he would say he had waited for her for a long time whenever she thought of each instance.
In reality, they only spent a total of seven days together in each instance. Was it really worth such a long and hopeless wait for them?
Jiang Liyue is self-centered and carefree, so she had never thought about this issue before.
But now, she has also learned to feel sorry for others.
Herlo and Hermer both felt a similar sense of panic; they suddenly had a premonition that Jiang Liyue was about to leave.
They exchanged a glance, their eyes reflecting the same melancholy and madness.
Does Yueyue want to leave them? Why? Didn't we promise to be together forever? How can she be so disobedient?
Without saying a word, they sensed her presence almost instantly and appeared before her.
Jiang Liyue seemed to sense something at this moment, and suddenly looked up at them with red eyes.
The two people's initial dark and angry emotions instantly turned into panic.
Herlo frowned: "Baby, who bullied you? I'm going to kill him!"
Hermer didn't speak, but the dangerous look in his eyes clearly conveyed the same meaning.
Jiang Liyue blinked, tears falling, and she softly reached out her arms: "Hug."
She wanted to hug him, but there seemed to be nothing else she could do.
Without a second thought, the two men bent down and hugged her, each taking one side, almost completely enveloping Jiang Liyue.
Neither of them spoke; they simply held each other quietly, a rare moment of warmth and harmony.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Liyue finally pushed the person away. She didn't cry, but the corners of her eyes were still a little red.
Herlo leaned in and gave him a loving kiss.
Hermer took her hand and gently asked, "Why are you crying?"
Jiang Liyue blinked, thought for a moment, and said, "I just read a touching book and I started crying immediately."
Hermer looked down at the book in her arms upon hearing this.
The Complete Guide to Dark Magic.
Hermer: ?
Is there a touching story behind this?
Jiang Liyue secretly tossed the book aside and looked at him with a righteous indignation.
Hermer smiled helplessly, seeing that she didn't want to talk about it, and didn't press her further.
Herlo, however, did not doubt her words at all and immediately said, "Who wrote this garbage book? I'll go and kill him. And the butler too, let in all kinds of books."
His behavior is similar to that of parents who blame the floor after their child falls down.
Jiang Liyue chuckled and leaned in to kiss Herlo's lips.
Herlo froze on the spot, touching his mouth, unable to speak.
Waaaaah, was he dreaming? Yueyue actually kissed him on her own initiative TT
He gave Hermer a subtle yet smug look.
Hermer remained expressionless. Was it possible that he and Yueyue had already kissed like this every day?
Seeing that Hermès's expression was calm, but his eyes were actually almost twisted with anger, Jiang Liyue leaned over and kissed him on the lips.
Herlo immediately became unhappy: "How could Yueyue kiss him? I was the one who stood up for you, wasn't that a reward for me? No, you have to kiss me again."
Jiang Liyue: ...
Herlo looked closer at her beautiful, no-longer-crying eyes and said, "Baby, are you not sad anymore? That's good. I'm telling you, you can only cry when I tease you in bed. You can't cry at any other time."
Jiang Liyue: ...Get lost.
She really shouldn't have felt sorry for him!
Hermer took the opportunity to squeeze Jiang Liyue's hand and looked at her intently: "Yueyue, you can't leave me, okay?"
Unlike Herlo, he was not carefree; he still remembered the fear he felt at that moment when he felt he was about to lose her.
He was acutely aware that Yueyue might leave.
Reminded by this, Herlo also remembered and clung tightly to Jiang Liyue's arm like a vine.
The cheerful puppy turned into a sinister puppy, staring intently at her: "Don't go."
Otherwise, he really didn't know what he would do after losing her.
Jiang Liyue felt unusually guilty, after all, she really was leaving.
She had a premonition that she didn't have much time left to stay a hundred years in the future.
