I really don't want to cross

Chapter 411 That Person (Two Chapters in One)

"How about it?"

Wood and Natsuki Subaru looked at Beatrice who walked in from the outside, with a little teasing on their faces: "Are you sure?"

Beatrice nodded, looked at Wood and said, "That is to say... I was not affected because of the energy you integrated into my body?"

"Probably." Wood nodded casually.

"Should I explain the Envious Witch to me? Who is that Envious Witch? Why did she give death to a stranger like me..." Natsuki Subaru almost blurted out those four words again, but was caught After Wood glared at it, he swallowed it back in a hurry: "...this ability."

"If you don't want to kill others, don't mention the words 'return by death' in front of people in this world."

Wood reminded that the previous brief contact was not fruitless; the legend that the jealous witch swallowed nearly half of the world is not purely fictional, and she does have a certain ability to control the world, so after drawing out her soul, Wood He didn't deliberately stop the Envious Witch from leaving.

Although Wood with the succubus physique is lustful, he would not choose such stupid things as 'die under the peony flower' when it comes to matters related to his own life. As Wood said before... he wants to control part of the soul of the envious witch in this world It can be said to be extremely difficult.

But if you erase it... it's not impossible for him to do it.

But erasing the part of the Envious Witch's soul may not kill the Envious Witch who has a certain connection with the world, but it will definitely increase the enmity between him and the Envious Witch.

After weighing the pros and cons, Wood decisively gave in.

"The Envious Witch Shatila devoured six witches who were once known as great crimes, and devoured nearly half of the world. She can be said to be the scariest person in the world."

Beatrice sniffed the lingering fragrance of a witch on Natsuki Subaru, observed him constantly, and continued: "Some people say that she longs for love; some say that she doesn't understand human language; some say that that body is forever Immortal, immortal, endless; some people say that even if sealed by the power of dragons, sword masters, and sages, her body cannot be destroyed; some people say..."

"That body is a half-elf with silver hair!!"

"A half-elf with silver hair?"

Nayuki Subaru was taken aback, and suddenly remembered that Emilia had also borrowed the name 'Shatila'. Now that she thinks about it, it must be that she didn't want to get too close to her, so she came up with this name that scares the world, right?

pity……

He is a guy with no common sense.

Nayue Subaru showed a smile on his face, and asked, "Why does such an existence pay extra attention to people like me?"

Although I don't want to admit it, after the experience of Merode's mansion, Natsuki Subaru also has a clear understanding of his own position in his heart; it can be said that if there is no death reset, he has nothing special in this world at all.

Beatrice shook her head.

Wood put aside the book introducing the Witch of Envy in his hand: "It was the Witch of Envy who pulled you into this world. As for why that crazy woman who dared to be an enemy of the world took extra care of you, you have to ask her face to face. gone."

"Even you don't know?" Natsuki Subaru said with some disappointment.

"...Do you really think I know everything?"

The corner of Wood's mouth twitched slightly, and then he said, "Let's put this aside for now. You'd better think about how you can survive in this mansion in the future. I don't want to repeat this day."

"..."

Nayue Subaru's face darkened, why is it so uncomfortable to hear these words?It's like who wants to die.

"Betty doesn't care. Anyway, no matter how the outside world changes, it has nothing to do with Betty who is in the forbidden library..." Beatrice once again used her 'opportunity door' ability to pull the door from a certain room in the mansion. Get a chair.

While sitting down, dessert and tea appeared on the only table.

"It's really a convenient ability."

Wood muttered enviously, and reached for the dessert on the table.

Snapped!
However, Betty knocked his hand aside just as he reached for the dessert.

"This is Betty's. If you want to eat, you can get it yourself."

"They all live in the same room, so don't be so stingy."

"It's a great honor for Betty to allow you to live in the Forbidden Library. Do you still want me to take care of you?"

Snapped!
The hand that Wood secretly stretched out while speaking was beaten aside again, and after giving Beatrice a white look, he picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of black tea: "Old loli is really stingy, those younger loli who match the age You are much stronger, and you will give me some good things."

"Hehe, it's really rare to see such a scumbag like you to be so proud of eating little girls' food."

"It's called 'deeply loved', you know?"

……

……

Nayuki Subaru looked at the two who had suddenly shifted from the topic of his own death to the fight for dessert, with black lines on his forehead.

"Hey! Your focus is obviously biased, okay? I'm dead!!"

Nayuki Subaru roared angrily, even if his own life was cheap, it should be better than that plate of desserts.

You guys really make me sad! !

"Whether you die or not has nothing to do with Betty."

Beatrice looked at Subaru Natsuki with an idiotic look: "What's more, when did Betty agree to let you into my library?" Although the words were addressed to Subaru Natsuki, she But his eyes fell on Wood.

"Don't look at me." Wood took a sip of tea lightly: "He found the position of the door of opportunity by himself. After all, there is never a shortage of people with opportunities in this world."

Beatrice was taken aback when she heard the words, then snorted coldly, and stopped pursuing Subaru Natsuki's unauthorized access to her forbidden library.

As Wood said, there will never be a shortage of people with opportunities in this world.

From the time she signed the contract with her mother, for 400 years... Although there are few people here, it is not impossible.

"Since you don't want to repeat this day all the time, can you help me find a way?"

Taking advantage of Beatrice's inattention, Wood hurriedly took a piece of dessert and stuffed it into his mouth, which aroused Beatrice's glare.

"You haven't figured out why you died, have you?"

Wood muttered vaguely, then swallowed the dessert in his mouth, and continued: "I told you."

"Huh?" Natsuki Subaru was taken aback.

"Don't trust strangers casually. In this world, including me, there is no one you can absolutely trust."

Wood shrugged his shoulders: "It should be said that no matter which world you are in, it is an extremely normal reaction to be wary of strangers; and in this mansion, except for Emilia and Parker, you are just a person in the eyes of others. Just strangers."

"Think carefully about why the Merod family was destroyed."

Wood sneered, looked at Nayue Subaru and said word by word: "Look at the big with the small!"

Look at the big with the small?

Natsuki Subaru was silent for a moment.

That being said... the one who killed him must have been someone in this mansion.

The self who came to this world from another world was originally of unknown origin.

Normally, Roswaal would never keep someone of unknown origin like himself in the mansion. After all, Emilia's identity is the successor of the king's election.

The power struggle of a family is already so cruel, let alone the power struggle of a country, it is normal to be careful.

and……

I'm still so suspicious.

It must be suspicious to others that he chose to work as a servant with a trivial kindness.

The Mirod family competed for the position of a small patriarch, and Pei Lisa planted a spy under her third uncle Pat, let alone a fight for a country. The possibility of a guy with unknown origin like herself being a spy was extremely high.

Although he helped Emilia a little, but if you think about it deeply; it is even more suspicious that he used the memory reset last time to appear in the stolen goods warehouse by coincidence; you must know that in Rasmez At that time, Wood used Weihailuo to attack the residential area, so that Pei Lisha could get the gratitude of the residents of the residential area.

If you think about it this way, the intestine hunter seems to be sent by yourself... The purpose is to get Emilia's gratitude, so as to lurk beside Emilia openly.

wrong!

Nayuki Subaru shook his head hastily, he is not a spy! !
(Think carefully about how the Merod family was destroyed.)
Subaru Caiyue suddenly thought of Wood's words in his mind, and couldn't help but look at Wood strangely. Did this bastard think that such a day would come?
And what did he do when he came to Mezas mansion?
The first job was to send the branch of Mezath to the chairman of the Hexin Chamber of Commerce, who was also the successor of the king; The smell of a witch that sounded ominous in Silk's mouth.

These factors combined...

"I'm super suspicious!!"

Wood glanced at Natsuki Subaru, this innocent guy finally got a little enlightened.

"Then who killed me?"

Natsuki Subaru asked, the first thing he thought of was the twin sisters, but he was not sure; because if they reported to Roswaal about their investigation of Roswaal's falsehood, he might have died in Roswaal. In the hands of Zival.

"You don't need to know that."

After Wood finished speaking, he cast his eyes on the book in his hand, and said in a cold tone: "The more you know, the more doubts you will expose, and it will be easier to arouse suspicion. Just remember not to ask some sensitive things, you won't be killed."

"..." Natsuki Subaru.

Saying it is the same as not saying it, that's why he hates this scum.

Nayuki Subaru thought for a while, then turned and left the forbidden book library.

His departure caused the forbidden book library to fall into silence again, but the silence didn't last long.

"It's those two ghost girls."

Wood turned to look at Beatrice next to her, and found that she was still reading with a book in her arms, as if what she said just now was not what she said.

Seeing this, the corner of Wood's mouth twitched slightly: "Why?"

"You don't need any other reasons. Just the fact that you have a witch's breath on your body is enough to make Rem, who can smell the witch's smell, murderous." Beatrice closed the book and turned to look at Wood: "Do you really think that Can the human kid gain the trust of the twin sisters in this situation?"

"Ah."

Wood put a piece of dessert into his mouth, and said with a smile: "Innocent people, whether they are enemies or friends, it's easy to get along with each other, isn't it?"

"Boring humans."

Beatrice snorted coldly, picked up a book, turned around and went back to her room.

"Tsk tsk, it's really awkward."

Wood looked at the back of Beatrice leaving, and smiled wryly: "I wanted to take the opportunity to chat for a while."

……

"This is an incomplete copy of the 'Book of Wisdom' I'm holding. The spells in the Book of Wisdom are extremely complicated, so I haven't been able to unravel all the spells...but this weakened copy can give the holder future Some simple reminders should be worth looking forward to."

A pair of familiar white and tender palms took the handed book, and stroked the skin with trembling hands.

The beautiful woman in front of her continued: "There are two books. One is for you, and the other is for Roswaal. Afterwards, as long as Roswaal uses that book, he should be able to deal with it. Although it is It's a very selfish request, but I still hope you can accept it."

Looking down at the book in her hand, she wanted to refuse, but the understanding of the mother who created herself in front of her made her understand...no matter what reason she refuses...

Echidna...

Her mother had already made up her mind to answer everything.

Even if I cry and beg now, instead of choosing to exist, but follow my mother, I am afraid she will not change her answer.

because--

Echidna, the witch of lust, is such a person, such a witch.

"Even if I don't come back, someone will have to open this library one day. At that time, I hope you can understand who it is. There will definitely be someone who is suitable to inherit my knowledge and visit you."

"Come to visit... Betty?"

"Let's assume it's 'that person'. The deadline for the end of the mission is set at the moment when 'that person' opens the door of the forbidden library—this is my last request!"

Final request.

This sentence made her swallow a breath, and looked up at her mother's face again, and the expression she saw was the same as usual.

but……

In that expression, there is only this moment, mixed with this kind of emotion that I don't understand.

"Beatrice. At least I hope you can grow up healthy!"

……

Beatrice opened her eyes, looking at the familiar ceiling that she had seen for more than 400 years, a look of fatigue flashed across her small face.

"Dream?"

In the blink of an eye, 400 years have passed.

I still haven't waited for the 'that person' in my mother's mouth.

In the past 400 years, many people came here without her permission, but none of them were the "that person" that Beatrice was waiting for. Beatrice didn't even know whether "that person" really existed... because "that person" People' might just be woven by Mother to keep herself alive.

but……

Beatrice suddenly remembered someone who is here now, and whispered to herself: "If it's him..."

"It is a pity!"

A voice suddenly remembered, with a hint of ridicule in his tone: "I am not the 'that person' you imagined. Although it is a bit arrogant to say so, don't talk about a copy, even if it is a genuine book of wisdom. There is no trace of my existence, and it is even more impossible for your mother to know my arrival."

Beatrice was taken aback for a moment, then her expression changed, and she hurriedly jumped off her big bed.

After running out of the room, I saw Wood on the other side coming out of the room, also yawning.

"Morning!"

Wood waved lazily.

Beatrice's face darkened, and she said in a cold tone, "What did you do to me?"

"I should say that."

Wood glanced at Beatrice, walked to the table and poured a glass of water for himself: "I was dreaming of millions of cute little lolita offering lollipops to me in turn, but the result was It's very refreshing to have someone's past that you don't want to know at all interrupted."

Beatrice frowned, staring at Wood with big eyes.

"Don't get me wrong, I can tell you with certainty that the person in front of you is definitely not the 'that person' you are waiting for." Wood scratched his hair like a chicken coop, and couldn't help yawning again: "The reason why Seeing your dream happened probably because of my divine power."

"As for why this happened, from the previous dream, I also have some guesses... From the conversation between you and the witch in the dream, as an artificial elf, there is no so-called 'gate' in your body, but With a 'powerful soul crystal' as the core, this should be the reason why you can retain pure divine power instead of weakening it into magical power."

"And after my divine power was poured into the so-called 'powerful soul crystal', it changed the nature of the soul crystal, causing a temporary connection between you and me, and that's why this phenomenon happened."

Beatrice frowned when she heard the words: "What exactly do you want to say?"

"It's nothing."

Wood shrugged his shoulders, and the whole person went straight to the chair: "I just think that the replica is very troublesome, and I hate trouble very much, so in order to avoid your misunderstanding, I will explain it to you in advance."

"Humph!"

Beatrice snorted coldly, with a sneer on her face: "Don't be so self-righteous, there's no way a guy like you is the person I'm waiting for."
