Oh, I'm dying.

Yan Sisheng lay helplessly on the soft big bed.

After two hours of sparring with Edmund, Yan Si became deeply aware of one thing.

She is a good cook.

She didn't even touch the corner of Edmund's clothes.

Yan Si rolled around on the bed holding the pillow, screaming in his heart.

Burying his head deeply in the pillow, Yan Si couldn't help but think of what Edmund said at the end of the sparring session.

"Don't follow the rhythm of the Blood Rose Ring, you must completely control it yourself."

Yan Si raised his head from the pillow, looked at the blood rose ring on his finger, then looked out the window. It was already completely dark.

dong dong dong.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Yan Si got out of bed, opened the door, and found a maid.

The maid bowed respectfully and said, "Madam, dinner is ready and the master is waiting for you. Please follow me to eat."

Yan Si nodded. Although she didn’t need to eat, this was Negar’s invitation after all, so she had to go.

Following the maid, Yan Si discovered that the servants who had been quiet during the day had begun to get busy.

They should be preparing for the banquet three days later.

On the long dining table, Negar was holding a goblet filled with red liquid. Smelling a faint smell of blood in the air, Yan Si could tell that it was fresh blood.

As if sensing Yan Si's arrival, Negar's silk-wrapped eyes looked in the direction Yan Si came from and said with a smile: "You are here, Yan."

The servant next to him moved the chair in front of the table for Yan Si, and Yan Si sat on it and said, "Well, sorry for the wait."

After sitting down, Yan Si noticed the many delicious foods in front of him, but he could only look at them and couldn't eat a single bite.

Who understands the pain of having delicious food in front of you but not being able to eat it?

Yan Si silently shed tears in his heart.

For this, Negar asked, “Why, do you not like the food?”

Yan Si waved his hand and said, "No, actually I don't need to eat these, I just need to eat this."

As he spoke, Yan Si took out a blood-red pearl from his pocket and handed it to Negar.

“I’ve never seen this before.”

Negar held the blood-red pearl curiously. In all his life, he had never seen such a small bead that could contain such great energy.

Of course you haven't seen it, after all, this is a product of eight hundred years later.

Yan Si complained silently in his heart.

Negar returned the blood-colored pearl to Yan Si and said, "Yan, I am very curious. You come from the far east, you don't need to eat human food, your life has completely stopped, you can be exposed to sunlight, and you can take out that magical pearl. Who are you?"

What else could I be? I am just a mutated high-level zombie.

Yan Si wiped his sweat silently, and lied without blushing or beating his heart: "If that's the case, then I'll tell you directly, I am a seeker of the Tao, and the so-called seeker of the Tao is to seek the Tao that belongs to him from the heaven. The day we start to seek the Tao, our lives will begin to stagnate, and we can't eat human food, and can only rely on this special bead."

“And the reason why I came to this land is just passing through here. Because I travel all over the world, I will stay in each place for a while before going to the next land.”

“Until I find my own path.”

At the end, Yan Si almost couldn't hold it in.

She looked at Negar guiltily, wanting to see his attitude.

Anyway, the words have been spoken and the identity has been revealed. It is up to Negar to believe it or not.

Anyway, Yan Si has already determined that her character in this time and space is a mysterious oriental seeker.

In this way, there is a reasonable explanation for her disappearance two months later.

Because, she is a seeker.

A seeker who can leave at any time and anywhere.

Negar stroked the goblet in his hand and murmured, "A seeker, huh?"

When Negar looked at Yan Si, Yan Si inexplicably felt a sense of pressure.

“What will happen if the quest is successful?”

Negar asked with interest, shaking the goblet in his hand.

When Negar asked this question, Yan Si's brain started working frantically.

"If you succeed in your pursuit of the truth, your dreams will come true."

Yan Si just made up something.

"Yan, what are you thinking about?"

After Negar finished speaking, countless thoughts flashed through Yan Si's mind.

Would you like to wish your parents who died when you were young to live a hundred years longer?

Let the person you hate be doomed to eternal damnation?

Make your life happy and fulfilling?

Let the colleague from the orphanage who disappeared inexplicably in junior high school show up to explain?

No, it's none of these.

Yan Si's eyes were clear and firm, and he smiled gently.

"Alive."

Negar was stunned.

"I want to live as Yan Si and live a happy and ordinary life."

There was a moment of silence at the table, and then Negar said, "Is this what you have in mind?"

Yan Si answered affirmatively: "Of course, so I am working hard to seek the truth and strive to succeed as soon as possible."

"Yan, I have one last question. How long will you stay in this land?"

Of all the questions Negar asked, this was the only question Yan Si answered truthfully.

"About two months. By then you should have resolved everything, and I can start the next phase of my journey to seek the truth."

Negar placed the empty goblet on the dining table and said, "I understand. Can you go for a walk with me later?"

Seeing Negar extending his hand to invite him, Yan Si had no reason to refuse him, so he put his hand in his palm and replied, "Okay."

Negar gently held Yan Si's hand, with the corners of his mouth raised in a faint smile.

With her hand held by Negar, they walked to the top of the castle.

On the rooftop space at the top of the castle, colorful wisteria flowers grow on the walls, and a thick, soft and gorgeous carpet is placed in the center of the space.

Negar lay on the soft carpet, reaching out to the starry night sky, and asked Yan Si who was sitting beside him: "Yan, do you like looking at the stars?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Si also looked up at the night sky. The stars were scattered in an orderly manner. She couldn't help but think of her childhood when her father was still alive and she had acted like a spoiled child and pestered her father to buy her an astronomical telescope.

"Of course, I have studied them before."

In response, Yan Si also lay down beside Negar, took Negar's hand, pointed to the Big Dipper in the night sky and said, "You can't see it, so I'll show you. There are seven bright stars in this direction. According to our Eastern name, these seven bright stars are called the Big Dipper."

Yan Si took Negar's hand, pointed in another direction, and said, "There is also a shining star in this position. We call it Sirius."

"And this side is called Vega. Speaking of Vega, we have to mention the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl..."

"And over there, the North Star..."
