Chapter 261 Players Go! G can’t help himself...
G finally couldn't help but ask out loud.
Elena and Chao Liyuyue blinked in unison and then laughed out loud.
"I accidentally said too much, but I just wanted you to not worry too much about me. On the contrary..."
Elena's smile faded. She took a sip from her teacup and said, "When the Tenth Life and their trials are over, you will return to the Vongola Rings."
"We are able to exist in this form because of the connection between Arcobaleno's power and the Vongola Ring, an unprecedented phenomenon."
Giotto lowered his eyes, staring at the tea on the coffee table, and said absentmindedly, "I accepted the conditions offered to me by the leader of Arcobaleno, Daikong. However, I didn't expect the unexpected she mentioned would be..."
Could it be their former friend Elena who appears before them again...
"That child named Uni?" Elena said with a smile after seeing Giotto nod. "So that child has indeed seen me, but in spirit form."
"It's incredible..." G exclaimed.
Elena: “…”
Giotto: "..."
Chaoli Yuyue: "..."
The living room fell into silence for a moment until Miaoji appeared.
"Meow, meow meow——" Meowji, who was wearing an apron, covered his mouth and called softly, and handed the tea in his hand to Elena.
"Thank you, Meowji." Elena smiled slightly.
"Meow meow!" Meow Ji held the tray, patted his chest confidently, and considerately removed the excess tea on the table.
Although it was just a simple gesture, it made the few people who seemed to have nothing to say start talking again.
"It seems like a long time ago that we last had such a pleasant conversation." Elena took a sip of tea, and her smile widened when she found that honey was added to it.
"Yes, it really makes me miss it." Chao Li Yu Yue also picked up the teacup and gently blew away the hot steam on it.
"The last time was with that guy D... uh..." G, realizing he had said the wrong thing, subconsciously stopped the topic.
"It's okay, G. You'll find out eventually, and...it's my fault."
Giotto shook his head and looked at the uneasy blonde woman - she was wearing a colorful long dress, with long golden hair draped behind her head, and her blue eyes were still clear, just like the clear sky in Sicily when they first met.
Giotto hesitated for a moment, but still told Elena everything that had happened without reservation - including what D had done after he and G, Ugetsu, Nakel and others retired to Japan.
"I'm sorry, Elena. No matter what, it was all because of what I did that you..." Giotto couldn't say the rest of the words.
The fact that their once close friend closed his eyes in front of them in such a tragic manner was a hidden pain in the hearts of all of them.
"You don't need to apologize, Giotto. I understand your dilemma and approve of the decision you made. Besides..."
Elena held the blond young man's hand again and said, "I believe you don't want to see what happens next, right?"
"Well...but..." Giotto wanted to say something else, but was inadvertently interrupted by Elena.
"Similarly, I understand the pain and resentment in D's heart, but... that's not a reason for him to do that."
The Simon family and the Vongola family share similar interests and are allies who have grown together from humble beginnings. D...
Elena closed her eyes and said again, "I love D deeply, and I also love the Vongola family that always stands up for the weak. You shouldn't go against each other because of my existence."
"...Tsk, that guy D." G snorted in dissatisfaction and leaned back on the sofa.
He hadn't forgiven D. Spade for what he did afterwards, but since Elena was here, he should give that man some face...
…
…
The few of them put aside their past entanglements and just chatted like friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time. Time passed bit by bit until the sound of footsteps coming from upstairs attracted their attention.
"Good morning—" said the player as he walked down the stairs with his eyes closed.
Elena turned around and saw the black-haired girl who was dazed and rubbing her eyes.
"Honey, where are you going so early?" Elena raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Well, it's already 6:20, isn't this the time when I usually go out...?!" The player raised his head after hearing the question. When he found that the three souls of one person in the living room were staring at him, the sleepiness that filled his head suddenly disappeared by more than half.
"Well, is it possible? You guys have been chatting all night?" The player who had instantly retreated suddenly popped his head back up. "Hello, Vongola I, nice to see you again."
"Hello, Miss Chiyo." Giotto smiled generously.
"Nice to meet you again, Ms. Chiyo." Asari Ugetsu was obviously impressed by the black-haired girl who praised her music.
"Ah, you're the one who plays the flute so well!"
Relying on the fragmentary memories in his mind, the player matched the young man in casual clothes with the Rain Guardian who had tested Yamamoto Takeshi yesterday. "You look handsome in casual clothes too!"
It’s just that he’s not as recognizable as when he’s wearing hunting clothes!
The player who almost didn't recognize him thought so.
"That's me. Thank you for the compliment, Miss Chiyo." Chao Li Yu Yue said with a smile.
"I am the Guardian of Mist for this life, G." The serious-looking red-haired young man nodded to the black-haired girl.
"Hello everyone—" the player stretched out his tone and waved in turn.
"But... didn't we get home very late yesterday?" After seeing that everyone knew each other, Elena looked at the clock and found that the hour hand was indeed pointing to six o'clock as the black-haired girl said.
The blonde woman laughed dumbly and gently advised, "I think it was around two in the morning. It's still so early now. Don't you really want to sleep a little longer?"
"No, I promised an old lady yesterday to help her pick radishes from her vegetable garden. I have to be there at 8 o'clock, and after I finish picking the radishes, I have to go to school right away - luckily I applied to not attend morning reading!"
After greeting, the player calmly went downstairs and took out the pre-made food prepared by Miaoji from the kitchen. While waiting for the delicious breakfast to heat up, he added, "If I get up early, I can go fishing for fish that are only active at this time of year. I can also give some to her when the time comes."
"Otherwise, that old lady living alone won't accept it at all." The player who has figured out the habits of every NPC who would accept gifts spread his hands helplessly.
"Why would Miss Chiyo do such a thing?" the blond young man with golden-orange eyes suddenly asked.
"Huh?" the player asked in confusion, and tentatively answered, "Because she needs my help?"
After all, an NPC that doesn't need help won't find the player!
"...Really? Sorry, I was rude." Giotto didn't expect such a simple and straightforward answer. Looking at Elena who was smiling frankly and even showing off with her eyes, the corners of his lips unconsciously curled up into a smile, and he apologized for his temptation.
"What's there to apologize for...ah, my breakfast is ready!" The player who didn't understand why Vongola I had to apologize quickly stood up and ran towards the kitchen after hearing the reminder sound from the microwave.
"Chiyo, don't use your hands directly on freshly heated food..." Before Elena finished her reminder, she heard the girl's cry of pain and could only shake her head helplessly.
"Oh, time is running out. You guys can chat slowly. I'm leaving first!" As expected, the player who was scalded shook his hand nonchalantly, grabbed his breakfast and ran out.
As for what will happen next in the villa, it has nothing to do with the players who are in a hurry to go fishing!
"I'm right, she is undoubtedly a good child." Elena looked at the black-haired girl who did not forget to give Maoji a hug before leaving, with a loving smile on her face.
"She helps those in need, cares for the elderly living alone in her own way, and doesn't mind strangers' attempts. It's exactly as you said..." Giotto sighed softly, "Should I say she's worthy of being a woman with the Great Sky attribute?"
He has a lot in common with Arcobaleno of the Sky, but that kid is even more...
Giotto unconsciously cast his gaze out the window - under the lush tree, there was a thin shadow vaguely visible.
————————
"A-choo——" Yuni, who was waiting for sister Aurora to come out, rubbed his nose unconsciously.
"What's wrong, Uni? Did you get up too early and get cold?"
The player who ran over with breakfast touched Yuni's hands. After finding that they were warm, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay, not too cold. If you get up early, remember to wear more clothes."
"The school uniform skirt is still too short." The player looked at the skirt on her body with dissatisfaction.
"It's okay, Sister Aurora." Uni shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm not simply cold."
"Well, I have a little blanket here if you're cold."
The player nodded, handed the extra breakfast to Uni, and unwrapped his own sandwich. He asked in confusion, "Speaking of which, why did you decide to observe my day?"
"After Sister Aurora rescued my soul, she assigned me a mission, didn't she?" Uni put away the sandwich and continued, "When I was with them, they all mentioned one thing: Sister Aurora was extremely busy."
"So..." Yuni hesitated for a moment, then looked at the black-haired girl beside her with eyes full of expectation, "Because I want to get to know Sister Aurora better, I made this unreasonable request."
It turns out that it was the cause and effect caused by the players.
"I don't think I'm very busy, but if you want to know, I'd be happy to let you know about my life." The player touched his hair and said hesitantly, "It seems that nothing special is happening today, but it will be a bit difficult. Be prepared, okay?"
"Yeah!" Yuni nodded without hesitation.
The player told Reborn the whereabouts of Yuni, who was now Sawada Tsunayoshi's tutor. He then easily picked up the long-haired girl and quickly flew towards the port. "Then, let's go!"
"The first thing is... to go fishing for big fish at sea!"
