Chapter 1077: The Split Between Sensibility and Rationality



Miss Vosiloda didn't respond to Ash's question right away. She used a knife and fork to cut one-sixth of the lava cake, opened her mouth wide and took a bite, the overflowing cream stained the corners of her mouth, just like a child.

Today she was wearing a black velvet shawl, black knitted half-sleeves on her hands, a skirt under her navy blue windbreaker, and her small shoulder bag was placed on the table. She looked like an aristocratic girl who came out to enjoy the snow. Her every move exuded the comfort and nobility in her bones. If she was a little less elegant and ladylike, it would only highlight her unrestrained cuteness and childishness.

Ash was not surprised, after all, she was not trained as a lady. Eight years ago, she was still the "playboy" Felix. When Ash first saw her on the train, she was being hunted by gangsters as the second son of a noble... At that time, Ash didn't even know she was a woman.

It was only later when he met Felix in the Star Cage that he vaguely guessed it after a little thought. But having said that, since Ash came back from the Star Cage, he didn't seem to have seen Felix dressed as a man again...

"Are you asking this on behalf of your friend?"

Noticing the mockery in Felix's eyes, Ash's face darkened and he sneered: "Is it fun to insult me?"

"Of course it's interesting." Perhaps because the cake was so sweet and delicious, Felix's mouth curled up and he said happily: "I won't ask who it is, but it's not hard to guess."

"Actually, I'm surprised you asked this question. Shouldn't "liking someone for no apparent reason" happen to you all the time?"

"How is that possible?"

"So that's not the case? I thought you were in love with every girl you met, and that all pretty girls were your lovers. You were as picky as a trash can."

"Are you still insulting me?!"

Felix chuckled and bit his fork while saying, "But seriously, is there really such a thing as "liking someone for no reason" in this world? I don't believe that there is nothing about the other person that you like. After all, even I would blush when I saw her breasts, legs, and buttocks in the bathtub..."

"Of course I like you. Appreciating beauty is human instinct. Who doesn't like pretty girls?" Ash took a sip of sweet milk. "To be honest, I miss the days with Igula and Harvey. Now I'm with you girls day and night. It really tests my self-control..."

"Eh?" Felix tilted his head. "Including me?"

Ash glanced at her and jumped back to the point as if nothing had happened: "But appreciation is different from what I mean by liking. You don't have to pick flowers to like spring, you don't have to catch cicadas to like summer, you don't have to leave dead leaves to like autumn, and you don't have to hide the snow to like winter... You appreciate a scenery, but you don't want to keep it forever, because the next second you may want to see the mountains and rivers, see the virtual world, you won't tie yourself to a scenery forever."

"But the kind of like I'm talking about is..."

He paused, as if he was embarrassed, and said in a complicated tone: "It's the kind of feeling where you want to be together all the time, bound forever, and exchange lives."

Felix blinked and fell silent, seemingly impressed by his remarks.

After a moment, she couldn't help but say, "Let's not talk about that person for now. What's your current situation? You want to tie up the three female magicians, Sword Lady, Witch, and Silver Lantern, and want to be with them all the time. You want to exchange lives with them. It would be best if everyone could live together?"

Ash blinked and nodded, "Yeah, what's the problem?"

"Then I understand." Felix patted his forehead, "You have no problem. The main reason is that I used to be in the aristocratic circle. Most of the people there are scumbags, but they also know that they are scumbags. Although it is not comfortable to get along with them, at least their desires are clear at a glance."

"And I rarely get along with people like you before. You're obviously a scumbag, but you still talk about pure love seriously." Felix spread his hands and explained, "It's a bit hard to put it into words, but I feel like I'm seeing a pool of vomit talking. I feel a little disgusted and a little nauseous..."

"If you can't say it, then don't say it!" Ash ate the cake in big mouthfuls to cover up his broken defense: "I understand, I'll finish eating and leave!"

"I've never seen a trash can with such a fragile heart as you." Felix smiled, "Like my father..."

She paused, then suddenly returned to the topic: "I understand what you mean. Normally, if you find someone whose values ​​and behaviors are unacceptable to you, you would at most be tempted by her body, and you would never want to be with her."

"You should obviously dislike or even hate the other person from the bottom of your heart. Even if the other person has never hurt you, his past has seriously challenged your moral bottom line... If you don't know each other, you may even curse the other person to die... Obviously, for you, breathing the same air as the other person is unacceptable, and the other person living one more second is a waste of resources."

"But your emotions and rationality are split. Rationally you want to stay away from the other person, but emotionally you want to get close to the other person. It's like there are two Lala fat guys fighting in your mind, so you are so entangled."

Ash nodded repeatedly and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Right, that's right, Felix you are simply my mouthpiece, you perfectly summed up the confusion in my heart!"

Felix glanced at him, took another bite of cake, and snorted softly: "It really makes me unhappy to understand a scumbag like you..."

Ash twitched his lips and said politely: "It would be better if you were willing to show a little respect to the spectators."

"Sorry, I don't want to." Felix bit his fork and made a sound: "If I can't scold you, then I'd rather not say anything."

"Then it's up to you." Ash was helpless, and he felt that he deserved to be scolded, especially at this moment, "So I don't understand why someone would like someone they hate?"

Felix said: "Because the other person once made your heart beat faster, at that moment you forgot all of the other person's shortcomings. Even if the other person is a devil or a scumbag, you still hope that this moment can last forever...so you fall in love with him."

Ash was startled, and suddenly remembered the morning when he just came back from hell. He turned his head and saw the sunlight illuminating the maid's face. The maid looked at him with a smile, squinting her eyes slightly, as if every eyelash was happy for his return.

He took a bite of the cake, savoring the sweet taste of the rich cream on his tongue, and asked with a sigh, "What should I do?"

"Isn't this simple? Follow your emotions and continue to like him, or follow your reason and completely hate him." Felix said, "Is there a third option?"

"Sometimes I feel that fighting may be the simplest thing in a magician's life."

Ash randomly poked the cake with his fork: "At least I can use miracles to change everything I don't like."
