She didn't know if it was because she had gotten used to the feeling of Perkin protecting her, but this time, with 'Greysius' by her side, she actually felt a sense of security that she couldn't explain.
Bai Xi's gaze frequently swept over 'Greysius's' face, muttering to herself.
Come to think of it, she didn't see Greysius much after that; the few times she did, it was just a fleeting encounter. Now, looking closely at that face... it really is outstanding.
His high, straight nose had a hump and a perfect curve. His jawline was so clear that it resembled that of an ancient Greek statue. Although his eyebrows and eyes were close together, giving him a strong sense of oppression and coldness, like a snake, Bai Xi barely noticed this. It was all neutralized by the gentle aura emanating from him.
Bai Xi stared at his face in a daze, not noticing that 'Greysius's' snake eyes had subtly shifted and were now looking in her direction.
The two of them just happened to look into each other's eyes.
It was a sunny day, and his pupils were sharp as needles, full of strong aggression. But when he met Bai Xi's gaze, Bai Xi was not afraid at all. Instead, she felt a little guilty and quickly looked away.
She kept her mouth tightly shut, pretending that nothing had happened, otherwise she would feel embarrassed.
Anyway, as far as she knew, 'Grexus' had always had high emotional intelligence and was too lazy to care about many things, so he probably wouldn't care if she looked at him a few more times.
However, she forgot that the current 'Grexius' was not so withdrawn; in fact, he was quite popular.
Then she heard it...
"If Your Excellency the Savior is pleased, you may view this openly and honestly."
The two were in the clouds, and 'Greysius's' voice seemed to contain a hint of laughter.
"..."
Bai Xi's face flushed instantly, but fortunately, the wind kept blowing past her ears, preventing her from showing her embarrassment and annoyance too obviously.
She awkwardly dug her toes into the ground, and it took her a long time to finally manage to speak.
"I just think your eyes are very special."
Bai Xi knew that what she said while trying to appear calm was a bit stupid, and she wasn't even sure what exactly she said; she just felt dizzy.
'Grexius' answered her question very seriously.
"Really? Nobody else likes it."
There was no disappointment in his tone, as if he had already gotten used to the way people looked at him.
Without thinking, Bai Xi blurted out words of comfort.
"No, it's very beautiful, I like it very much."
After she finished speaking, Bai Xi fell into an eerie silence. She hadn't thought carefully when she said it, but after she said it, she realized... why did her words sound so ambiguous?
Frustration filled Bai Xi's chest once again.
However, her words could not really be considered a consolation. In fact, from the very beginning, Bai Xi thought that Perkin's snake eyes were very beautiful, crystal clear like a green crystal, and faintly glowing. Although the vertical pupils looked a bit creepy, they also had an indescribable beauty that transcended the human form.
That's right, if it weren't for her liking this type of character design, she wouldn't have read the manga "Miracle Days".
Therefore, she genuinely loves every character in the comics, including Perkin.
If the situation when she transmigrated hadn't been so urgent that her life was in danger, she probably would have focused more on observing the human forms of various gods, rather than using them to survive.
Thinking of this, Bai Xi felt an indescribable sadness.
She was still lost in her own thoughts, unaware that 'Greysius,' who had been watching her, had actually been silent for a long time. If you looked closely, you could see that his neck and the base of his ears were also flushed, but fortunately, they were covered by his clothes and long hair, so Bai Xi didn't notice.
He stared at Bai Xi quietly for a long time before turning his head away, as if to say, "I'm not trying to hide anything."
"Really... That's wonderful..."
After saying that, he tugged at his somewhat torn collar, as if trying to cover something up.
His muttering was unusually soft, and Bai Xi wasn't paying much attention either. In addition, to prevent the World Consciousness from spying on her, she didn't hear what 'Grexus' was saying.
For the next while, it was as if the two of them had been put on pause; neither of them took the initiative to start a conversation.
In 'Greysius's' view, Besh is a respected savior, and it would be impolite to take the initiative to explore the savior's secrets.
Moreover...
He may have been indulging in wishful thinking.
How could they possibly have such inappropriate thoughts about the Savior?
The feeling of his heartbeat still lingered in his chest, barely fading away. He could clearly feel that when the Savior praised his beautiful eyes, his heart seemed to become out of control.
He's a cold-blooded snake; he clearly shouldn't be falling for someone like that.
Or perhaps...
From the moment he stood on the ground and saw the savior saving the continent and rescuing him from disaster, he had already fallen for him.
It was only when he finally had the chance to get close to the savior that his emotions spiraled out of control.
However, 'Greysius' was well aware of his own identity and knew he could never be worthy of the Savior, so... he only needed to do his duty and stay by her side for a short time.
Bai Xi, however, was still immersed in her own grief and had no idea what 'Grexus' was thinking.
As she reflected on everything she had experienced, she realized that her original intentions had long since changed.
Before long, the two arrived at the floating island. This time, El stood at the edge of the floating island, waiting for Bai Xi's return.
Upon seeing El, Bai Xi finally returned to reality.
There's no use thinking about these things now; we need to get through this crisis first.
"What's this for?"
El looked at 'Grexius' with suspicion. As the holy incarnation of an angel, he actually disliked dark creatures, especially snakes like 'Grexius', which he had disliked even during his time as an elemental spirit.
So when I saw 'Grexus', I instinctively felt disgust.
But since he was brought back by Bai Xi, he could only accept it reluctantly, and all he could do was ask questions with a pitiful expression.
"Blacksmith".
Bai Xi uttered three words, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Because she suddenly realized something: it seemed that their current strengths and talents were not being displayed in their human or divine forms later on.
Whether it's a mermaid, an elf, or anything else...
What happened?
Bai Xi's ominous premonition grew stronger, and even the terrifying guess in her heart became more and more real. Bai Xi's mood, which had just been good, suddenly sank to the bottom.
