Chapter 158 Why should I wear a larger size of clothes?
Gold score.
When she heard this term, Hevinia was in a trance for a moment, as if she had returned to a year ago. She saw a beautiful woman staring at her with an unbelievable look.
"Jin Pu?! You are actually Jin Pu?!"
"How is that possible?"
“Does the Golden Book really exist?”
Then, that disbelief quickly turned into greed and madness.
"In that case..."
She murmured, and her madness turned into cruelty.
The whistling cold wind woke Hevinia from her trance. She raised her head and looked at the mirror in front of her, and found that the face in her memory was reflected in the mirror, looking at her expressionlessly.
After being silent for a while, she stood up and closed the window. When she returned to her seat, her eyes had returned to calm as she looked at her left middle finger.
"What else do you know?" Helvinia asked.
Hmm...you didn't even ask me how I knew that?
interesting.
Bai Wei's opinion of Hevinia improved a bit. After all, chatting with smart people can save a lot of effort, so he said bluntly: "You want to play the seven-tone divine song."
Hevinia didn't say anything, but Bai Wei could feel her body straighten a little, like a cat whose back was being stroked.
"It's not hard to guess, as long as we know your identity." Bai Wei said slowly, "In addition to the seven golden notes, the necessary condition for playing the Seven-tone Divine Comedy is the golden score. Unlike the golden notes that appear every once in a while, the golden score has not appeared for a long time. Even in the Holy Sound, many people don't know about it... But that woman knows. I mean, the real Hevinia, and you learned all this from her."
Bai Wei paused for a moment, then said with a smile.
"It's actually quite interesting. You learned your importance from someone who wanted to kill you."
Bai Wei could feel that Hevinia's breathing was getting heavier, but she was still trying to maintain her facial expression.
"This is just your unfounded conjecture." Helvinia said, "And you think too highly of me. Do you think it's really possible for me to play the seven-tone divine song by myself? Why can't I just want to live by this identity?"
"To be honest, it is true." Bai Wei nodded. "Compared to the Seven-tone Divine Comedy that has not been completed in a thousand years, the risk is too high. You can do nothing and live well with this stolen identity. The Golden Score can change your body into the appearance of the absorbed notes. Judging from the fact that you have been safe and sound for the past year, no one has discovered that the real Miss Hevinia has been killed by you, not even her biological parents. So you can live in a safer and more comfortable way."
"so……"
"But would you really do that?"
Bai Wei interrupted Hevinia's words slowly again. He exerted force again, causing Hevinia to raise her left hand unconsciously, allowing him to look down at Hevinia from above. This gave Hevinia a strange feeling, as if this was not a conversation, but a trial.
The flexible middle finger tilted slightly, looking at the wizard's hat and robe hung aside by Hevinia, and then spoke casually.
"Your clothes seem to be two sizes too big."
"What's the problem then?"
Hevinia spoke subconsciously, and then suddenly realized that she seemed to have fallen into Bai Wei's mind-guiding trick, but it was too late. She heard Bai Wei continue to speak in a leisurely tone: "Just like young women wearing their parents' clothes will make people feel cute, adult women will also wear their boyfriends... I mean husbands' clothes to make themselves look cute and innocent. Simply put, no matter who you are, wearing a larger size of clothes will make you look less aggressive, and loose clothes can often cover up a lot of things."
The finger gradually turned back and continued to "look" at Hevinia.
"You." Bai Wei said word by word, "What are you trying to hide?"
Helvinia was silent.
Although she was surrounded by warm winter magic and even the howling cold wind could not bring her coolness, Bai Wei's words made her feel chilled to the bone.
In front of this ordinary-looking finger, Hevinia felt like she was not wearing any clothes...even though she was not wearing any clothes.
But the feeling of having all her disguises peeled off layer by layer still made her feel a little breathless.
This feeling of oppression and suffocation made her feel like she was back to a year ago, when the real Hevinia stepped on her face with her feet, and she seemed to be suffocated in the next second.
And at this moment, Bai Wei's tone relaxed, and the other two surrendered fingers regained their freedom.
"Of course, what I just said is just my guess." He smiled and said, "It is also possible that you don't have such ambitious ideas. You just simply want to change your life. Just like you said before, you are satisfied as long as you can keep your current identity as a young lady."
This sudden feeling of relaxation made Hevinia feel a little overwhelmed for a moment.
It was as if a completely taut rubber band that was about to break in the next second suddenly lost its traction, and all the pressure disappeared in an instant.
The person who brought her pressure was laughing, "I'm sorry, I made a mistake", which made Hevinia feel a little confused.
"Of course, I still have to say what I need to say." Bai Wei said, "If you want to play the Seven-tone Divine Song, then we can cooperate. Even though I only have three pieces of my body left, everyone who uses my power speaks highly of it... at least no one has given it a bad review."
Hevinia subconsciously wanted to object, but Bai Wei spoke first.
"If you don't want to, then just pretend I didn't say anything. As you can see, I'm not in a very good condition right now, so I'll lend you my body to soothe my soul. In return, you can also use my body."
"With your body?"
"Yes, my fingers, my eyes, and my tongue." Bai Wei said lazily, "You can do whatever you want with them. This is my reward for borrowing your body... How do you think?"
Hevinia's brows were deeply furrowed. She looked at Bai Wei again: "What use do I have for your body parts?"
"Ah, I really hope that everyone in this world thinks like you, so that no one will try to steal my body parts." Bai Wei said with a smile, "If you want, you can try to touch the musical note behind you with my finger."
"……what you up to?"
"It's just an advance payment." Bai Wei said, "Although it's a golden score, the real Miss Hevinia also possesses golden sounds, so you haven't absorbed it thoroughly yet, which makes you look like you haven't completely lit up the notes. In Shengyin, everyone's notes will be completely lit up at the moment of adulthood, and Miss Hevinia... logically speaking, she has already reached adulthood. In other words, there are many people watching you now. If you continue to drag it on..."
Helvinia fell silent again.
It's that feeling again.
Everything is seen through, and all disguises are ineffective.
Indeed, because the notes were snatched away, they have not been fully absorbed until now.
Many people were already staring at her. Even though the instructor kept comforting her that she didn't need to worry, and that golden sounds would mature later than ordinary sounds, if she dragged on any longer...
Hevinia slowly closed her eyes.
But she had made her decision. She reached her hand behind her back, and her middle finger touched the golden note that had refused to be tamed all year.
Then, there was a "ding" sound.
A golden sound wave spread out in all directions with Hevinia as the center.
…
The students in the lobby on the first floor raised their heads and looked at the roof in astonishment.
Because they all heard this pure sound without any impurities.
I saw the golden light spreading like ripples throughout the entire academy.
"Senior Helvinia...it worked."
…
Helvinia opened her eyes.
She saw herself in the mirror, and although she tried to remain calm, she couldn't hide the shock in her pupils.
Is it that successful?
The notes that she hadn't digested for a year were completed with just a light touch of this finger?
After a slight hesitation, Hevinia turned around and exposed her back to the mirror.
Sure enough, the musical note on its back, which had been flickering constantly due to instability, was now emitting a quiet and peaceful glow, and the score that bound it was no longer visible. Of course, it was not because it disappeared, but because it had hidden itself and would not reappear until the next note that needed to be swallowed appeared.
This means that her notes have completely stabilized and have truly been "lit up".
And for the time being, she doesn't have to worry about anyone seeing the thin lines behind her and finding out her identity.
Hevinia should have breathed a sigh of relief, but when she thought that this was caused by the finger that didn't belong to her, she couldn't let herself feel at ease.
So, when she looked at the middle finger again, her eyes were full of complexity.
"Okay, this is my advance payment." Bai Wei said with a smile, "How about it, do you believe in my ability now?"
Hevinia didn't respond, but just asked, "What do you want?"
"I just said it, I just need to borrow your body to rest."
"You're already inside me."
"Yes, so you are already paying the remuneration, and you don't have to pay any more. Don't worry, fairness is my top priority." Bai Wei's voice became softer, and his upright middle finger quickly went limp. "It's time for me to rest, too. Good night, Miss Hevinia."
With that, Bai Wei's voice disappeared from Hevinia's mind.
But before it completely disappeared, Hevinia still heard a long voice: "If you want more power, come to me again."
Then, Hevinia felt that the middle finger that was out of control was back under her control. She could control the bending or straightening of this finger at will.
It was as if the soul that had just resided in this finger had fallen into a deep sleep as he had said.
She gently rubbed her middle finger and murmured unconsciously.
"Visas..."
Half an hour later, Hevinia fell asleep with countless messy thoughts.
The middle finger of the left hand placed next to the cheek slowly moved to the side, as if looking at her.
Bai Wei did not fall asleep.
A month ago, Bai Wei paid a heavy price in order to save the last bit of Jellal's soul and send it into the Sword of Order.
Although a month had passed, Bai Wei, who had spent most of the time in the wreckage of the divinity, had not been well recovered until his soul entered Hevinia's body.
But he was not as weak as he appeared.
Even on the way to Shengyin, he had been observing Miss Jinpu, observing all her actions and trying to figure out her psychology, just for today's conversation.
Because this is an extremely special host, different from Uru and Jellal.
Her past experiences have made her not trust anyone easily... Well, maybe the word "easy" can be removed.
At the same time, when she is subjected to extreme oppression, she will not choose to kneel down, but will resist with all her might.
Before, when Bai Wei was about to push her into despair after revealing everything about her with words, he immediately took back his words because he sensed this. If Bai Wei went one step further, she would immediately use all means to try to destroy Bai Wei.
Just like she had done a year ago when she killed the real Helvinia.
She would never be willing to be manipulated by others.
Therefore, once she feels controlled by Bai Wei, then cooperation between Bai Wei and her will be impossible to begin.
This is also why Bai Wei showed his "weak" side to her.
"It's really... interesting."
Bai Wei chuckled.
"Let us get along, Helvinia."
…
The next morning, Helvinia woke up with a start.
She looked down at the middle finger of her left hand.
There was no response.
She tried calling Bai Wei in her mind again, but got no response.
It was as if yesterday's conversation was all just a fantasy.
But Helvinia knew it wasn't.
Because the stabilized golden notes on the back are still shining.
Hevinia got out of bed in silence, and then put on her clothes in front of the mirror. When the wide wizard robe covered her curvy figure, she suddenly thought of a question.
That is whether Bai Wei can really see through this finger.
After all, she and Bai Wei were naked for most of their conversation last night.
Helvinia pondered the question.
After packing up everything, Hevinia did not rush out, but hid the other two body parts first, and then sat in front of the window, quietly waiting for something.
Half an hour later, the sun rose and Helvinia just sat.
Forty minutes later, students began to walk out of the dormitory building one after another, yawning and heading towards the teaching building. Hevinia remained unmoved.
An hour later, when the bell rang, signaling the start of class, Hevinia slowly stood up, ruffled her long-combed hair, wrinkled her neatly-dressed robe, and tilted her hat.
Then he took the book and the staff and ran out of the dormitory in a panic.
"Sorry, sorry, I'm going to be late, please make way!"
The school workers and students on the road looked at Hevinia, who looked like she had just rolled out of bed, and teased her as if nothing had happened.
"Miss Helvinia, why are you late again?"
"Hurry up, or you'll be scolded by the professor again."
Helvinia gave them her usual "about to cry" expression.
But at this moment, the words Bai Wei said last night echoed in her mind.
"What do you want to hide?"
Her smile froze.
