Chapter 291 Brother and Sister Night Talk
Half a magic hour later, the listless elemental dragon floated out from the unlocked barrier and hid behind Fiona.
After a series of examinations, it felt its body was a little soft and everything seemed to become dull.
Through high-density penetrating scans, the structure inside its body was completely recorded, serving as a valuable reference backup for extraterrestrial life.
If Avis wanted, he could even restore a silicon... specimen that was exactly the same as its body structure.
The kitten Kate was in good condition. Avis did not do anything to it. He just did a simple physical examination to confirm its current health condition.
"Okay, Fei, the initial inspection is complete. Next, remember to bring it in for inspection every seven days.
This is for the sake of its life. It is not a local creature, and it may not be able to feel some changes in its body, such as spatial correlation and life coherence frequency, so it must be tested to eliminate health risks. "
After backing up the data, Avis began to seriously deceive Fiona again. His words were interspersed with high-level professional terms, which made the girl a little dizzy.
"I understand, brother... Anyway, it should be once every seven days, right?"
Fiona nodded dazedly and turned around to comfort the little dragon, who was a little upset when he learned that he had to come back every seven days.
After a moment, the young dragon's transparent tail, which was originally swinging back and forth, suddenly straightened, and then wilted and stopped resisting.
"Did you say anything to it, Fee?"
Avis looked at Fiona with some curiosity.
"Well, Feiya isn't very obedient and doesn't seem to want to come back."
The girl blinked her big lake-blue eyes and explained to Avis using gestures.
"But when I told her 'If you don't behave, I'll have to send you back here,' she behaved."
“I see…”
Avis looked at the little dragon that was stealing glances at him fearfully, feeling somewhat helpless.
"But, brother, does this really have no effect on Fia? She seems to be feeling a little uncomfortable."
Touching the vortex dragon that felt like a soft force field, Fiona felt its emotions and looked at Avis with some confusion.
"Don't worry, Fei. It's just that during the initial hatching period, we need to check it every seven days to ensure its survival."
Avis explained.
"Once it is one year old, you can extend the check-up to once a month. When it grows a little bigger, you only need to bring it in for a check-up after each advancement."
After all, there was no need to record too much repetition in the data. It was only necessary to record it after a major change occurred. . ….….When the two left Avis's magic laboratory, the sun had completely set below the horizon.
But that last ray of light seemed unwilling to completely dissipate, and instead struggled to coat the horizon with a layer of faint red light, like the color of the embers in a fireplace that had not yet been completely extinguished.
In the dark blue sky above, which looked like high-grade blue velvet, there was strangely not a trace of clouds. One could clearly see the outlines of the silver and purple moons, as well as the twinkling stars in the sky.
The vast, boundless and extremely distant starry sky always inspires the awe and yearning hidden in the deepest part of human hearts.
"Fei, it's been a long time since I left the castle last year. We haven't watched the stars together like this, right?"
Lying on a lounge chair on the third-floor terrace, Anvis, his blue eyes quietly gazing at the night sky in the southeast, spoke softly.
"Indeed, since you left, no one in the castle wants to play with me. And no one helps me with my daily lessons. I am always forced by my father to read those boring books full of words!"
On another lounge chair next to him, Fiona, dressed in a college uniform, was holding Kate and also looking up at the sky full of shining stars.
Her long, brilliant light golden hair flowed down her side, her snow-white skin seemed translucent in the moonlight, and her childish, delicate face was glowing with a hazy halo, making her look charming and alluring.
When Avis mentioned this, the girl nodded in agreement like a chick pecking at rice. Her big watery eyes looked at Avis with some resentment, and she complained softly as if she was acting like a spoiled child.
"Haha, there's nothing we can do about it, dear Fei. You have to choose between a pear and an apple. If you don't want to be punished by your father, then study magic seriously."
Anvis couldn't help but chuckle and casually uttered some Imperial slang.
"But that's really boring! Bro, you know I don't have your skills!"
Fiona complained quietly, petting Kate's soft blue-grey fur, causing the latter to twitch her ears.
"By the way, brother, can you tell me a new story?"
As she spoke, the girl suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Avis with interest.
"The story..."
Avis's gaze was still scattered, as if flying to the brightest star in the endless and distant starry sky.
"Fi, do you know Chocobo?"
"I know! It's that big, clumsy bird with brown feathers that runs very fast but can't fly—"
Fiona nodded. Chocobo is a very common low-level mount, even she knew that.
"Yes, Fei. And what I am going to tell you next is the story of the Chocobo."
With his head resting gently on his arms, Avis looked up at the starry sky and slowly began his story in the fresh and cool night breeze.
"Did you know that wild chocobos actually have a special habit?
Living in the desert, when faced with irresistible crises and natural enemies, they will do a strange thing: stick their heads into the sand.
In this way, they cannot see the crisis and enemies right in front of them, as if they have disappeared.
They lull themselves into a false sense of security until the very end.”
Looking at the starry sky, Anvis was telling a story, but he couldn't help but think of his previous meeting with Prince White.
Thinking about the future situation after tonight and those corrupt and stubborn old nobles, he suddenly felt a little ridiculous.
“But now, there are some people like this.
They saw the Chocobo stick its head in the sand when it encountered its natural enemy, and they laughed at it and shouted at it, thinking it was stupid.
“Regardless of the truth, people who claim to be smart pretend to be ignorant or even deliberately avoid the difficulties in life when they are pressed step by step.
Even though we know that avoiding it will not solve any problems, we still indulge in it until disaster strikes.
What's the difference between people who do this and the stupid Chocobos they laugh at? "
"Eh? This..."
Hearing Avis' sudden question, Fiona tilted her head and blinked her watery lake blue eyes in confusion.
After thinking for a while, the girl didn't know how to answer Avis, and looked at Kate for help.
"Meow……"
The latter meowed at her innocently.
"Sorry, Fei, I was a little distracted just now..."
At this time, Avis finally realized what he had said and couldn't help but smile apologetically at Fiona.
"Actually, Fei, do you want to know why I suddenly asked you to stay tonight?"
Facing the girl's inquiring gaze, Avis smiled and motioned for her to look up.
"See? It's coming to the lower right of Amis—"
The next moment, under the gaze of the girl and the cat, in the southwest sky, on one side of the purple moon Amis.
In the originally pitch-black night sky, suddenly, a dim silver star appeared!
