It seemed that Yi Ai'er really gave him an experience of "going back to the past". Although his injuries had always been "acting", he did have a few moments, like Yi Ai'er, returning to the "past" that he missed the most.
In the afternoon in the garden of the past, he did ask such questions.
"Well... maybe, when I was very young, I could understand it?"
"I could actually understand it..."
"But, in order to learn human language, slowly, such long sounds... and such short sounds, I could no longer distinguish the difference, and gradually I could no longer understand it."
Yi Ai'er seriously imitated the sound of a dog barking that he often heard - it even sounded like a wolf's howl.
"Sorry, Iai'er is a wolf after all, so it's not very similar to imitate a dog, right?"
"In fact, the dogs we see now were first trained from wolves. In some ways, they can even be considered the same species?"
"Is there such a thing?!"
"... Didn't you know? No... Didn't I tell you seriously before?"
Will first doubted whether he had told it before, rather than whether Iai'er knew it. He believed that Iai'er would definitely remember every word he said.
"I see... So, what the young master always said before, 'Let you be my dog', means to tame Iai'er as a wolf...?"
"Uh..."
Will never thought that Iai'er remembered this sentence so well, it was just something he said when he was a little sick.
"Ah, it's time for dinner. I did see fish in the market, but Iai'er doesn't know how to handle it. You must be careful of the bones when you eat it!"
Evening.
The fish Iai'er chose did have more bones, but under her handling, it tasted very delicious.
But...
Will was still thinking, what Iaier did today, is it really the "answer sheet" she handed in?
If...if she still wants to spend every day like now, he may need a little "hint" that she has something to do.
"Master, if you want to take care of your body, go to bed early tonight."
Iaier carried him to the bed, half-knelt in front of him, and said so.
"..."
Will didn't say anything.
"..."
So, Iaier didn't leave, just stood there obediently.
"Master, can you give Iaier a score for today?"
After she asked, she sat down on the bed carefully, next to Will, opened her palm, and placed Will's hand in her palm.
"You can write down the score. Although you can't pick up a pen to correct a number like before, you can... write the number here."
Chapter 403 "I'll take you to defeat the Flame Dragon" (3k)
Score?
Will was a little stunned.
From his perspective, it seemed that Iai'er hadn't done anything "special", but simply took him through a peaceful past time like before.
It seemed...
Did she really need this little bit of his reminder?
But, Will stretched out his finger, and after it rested on her warm and soft palm for a while, he spoke:
"So, Iai'er... what do you think? You... what do you understand as redemption..."
"It's... every day in the past."
"... what?"
Iai'er closed her hands first.
In Will's eyes, the whole house was not lit - perhaps because Iai's night vision ability did not require turning on the lights, and he didn't need to turn on the lights to see anything in his current state.
But...
It was precisely because there was no light that he could see that Iai's body was shining in the moonlight.
Especially her most distinctive ears, he couldn't see them so clearly, but he could see the fluff on her ears, as if they were also glowing.
Moonlight...?
Will felt that something was a little bit wrong. When he just got up, he hadn't put on sunglasses to pretend to be blind, so he remembered the layout of the room at that time.
Under that layout, could the position where Yi Ai'er was sitting really be illuminated by the moonlight?
After all, in order to restore the layout of the room, she placed the table by the window, and the bed was far away from the table and even completely misplaced.
"Is it... is it redemption? Yi Ai'er actually realized this for the first time today." She spoke in a heartfelt tone, "It turns out that the smell of the young master, and the feeling of spring brought by the young master, when the young master took me away from the cold winter that I almost couldn't get out of, the feeling that slowly rose from the bottom of my heart, is redemption..."
Will realized...
What he said did "work", but Yi Ai'er was always a little slow. Before satisfying others, she always didn't think about what she really needed first.
"Yi Ai'er didn't understand how to bring such a feeling to the young master, but Yi Ai'er thought, if I describe it as 'empathy', the young master would definitely be able to feel it, right?"
He rarely heard Yi Ai'er talk about her own feelings.
Even when it comes to research on heat resistance, Yiaier always begins to realize the scars on her body only after he asks about it.
"What Yiaier knows is that being able to stay by the young master's side as a maid and spend every day peacefully is the greatest salvation."
But, at least now, Yi'er began to talk about herself seriously in front of him.
"When I wake up in the morning, I can see the young master's smiling face."
"For lunch, you can make lunch for the young master with your own hands."
"In the afternoon, you can take your leisure time and listen to the young master teaching seriously in the garden. Prepare a cup of black tea."
"I can watch the young master fall asleep at night - even though you always fall asleep very late."
"I'el is very afraid that this kind of life will disappear. The life as a maid beside the young master may be all that she can survive."
…
"So, Yi Aier is thinking, if we do all the things that the young master and Yi Aier have done, will we be able to... redeem the young master?"
She held Will's hand very carefully, but not to hold it like a "lover", but so that he could actually write words on the palm of her hand.
"Because, in the afternoon, the young master seemed to be smiling happily."
"Is there...?"
"When I asked Yi Aier whether he could understand the dog's speech, it was true! He is exactly the same as the previous young master!"
"...Have I always been like this in your mind?"
Will originally wanted to give it a zero.
Because what he wanted was definitely not to let Yiel indulge in the past. If so, he would not have chosen to escape with Shona on that snowy night when he was tied up by Yiel in the basement.
but……
The sincere answer she gave made Will find no reason to refuse.
"...You did give me a surprise. Let's give it a passing grade."
"The first time Iel handed in her homework, she never failed."
Even Will didn't think of such a thing.
"For now...it's time to pass once or twice, right?"
"Pfft... the young master now looks a bit like before."
She laughed.
"However, Yi Aier actually thought of something that can give the young master full marks - from Yi Aier's point of view."
She stood up and seemed to take something down from the wall in front of her.
! ?
wall?
Will's sense of disobedience increased. He realized that in the room he lived in before, the side of the bed was not a wall.
"Yai'er feels that she has the value of being by the young master's side. This is when the young master has been training Yiai and wants Yiai to do something..."
"Whether it was high temperature resistance training, endurance training, or "Su Bing Formation" training, one day, Yi Aier realized that Yi Aier could indeed protect the young master and what he could do."
"Then, as long as the young master understands that the current young master can do anything, it will be fine -"
She sat down again and placed a bottle in his hand.
The bottle was heavy, as if it contained something heavy and important. Even Will was afraid to open it.
"This is……"
"Put it in, Master."
He put his hand in and touched something soft, like a piece of meat. There is no rot, perhaps because the bottle has some kind of preservation effect, but this piece of meat actually retains its temperature here, and it even feels like a hot water bottle.
"...It belongs to Yanlong..."
"heart."
Yiel took over his words.
Will understood where Yiel had brought him. It's not his room, but Yiel's room.
Just now she also went to the wall and took out the heart of the Flame Dragon.
She had been planning this from the moment she guided herself upstairs. Take him to his room and prove the flame dragon she hunted to him.
Will's hand moved away without being "disgusted", after all, he had been the one to handle such trophies before.
"Young master, although you can't see, can't stand up, and can't use magic. But... the young master is still the same young master as before. He has never changed in doing something with a plan."
Yi'er... maybe she has started to live independently, and is much smarter than she was before.
At least now, she seemed to have realized that Will had his "purpose" for visiting her.
Although she did not see that his injuries were "fake" - after all, she would not question Will's words, even if they were lies.
"Actually, when the young master asked Leah to find Yi Aier, Yi Aier heard about it. The young master is the client of the 'Flaming Dragon Killer', and he wants Yi Aier to kill a certain flame dragon, right?"
"Yes. Actually... I have already heard about what you did to my eldest brother - oh, it has been spread throughout Entak. To be honest, it is quite relieved."
"Eh... Well, those things, those things, those things, are actually... all driven by Sister Peflan's sudden ideas."
"Of course, it's not just this one. You already have your own experience in hunting the Flame Dragon."
"……Um."
"You saw through it, and I did have such thoughts... That's why I came to find you."
"That's great. Yiel is still the Yiel that the young master named Will needs."
Will could imagine that Yiel, who was saying this, was putting his right hand on his chest and speaking candidly as if he was swearing.
"Aren't you angry? In fact, this is... a kind of deception."
"It doesn't matter. Whether it's completing the mission as the 'Flame Dragon Killer' or completing what the young master wants to do as Iai'er, killing a certain Flame Dragon, it's what we should do next. It's just..."
Iai'er took Will's hand and put his hand hard on the heart of the Flame Dragon.
"Just like when the young master took Iai'er to achieve everything, Iai'er..."
"Iai'er wants the young master to kill the Flame Dragon with his own hands, in his current state."
"Prove that the young master is still as omnipotent as before in Iai'er's heart-"
"This is what Iai'er wants, the redemption of the young master."
