Fantasies That Descend on Collapse

Inexplicably ran into Amber and was seen by the other party, and then was chased to the top of the building by Otto who happened to meet, and also made it clear to him that he would be responsible for himself, and finally had no choice but to...

Luo Chen, recalling her previous experience, couldn't help but move her eyes to the front of her, and when she saw the sewer exit that she had opened earlier, the only thing she could do was hold her forehead with one hand, Then make complaints that don't do anything.

And the only thing that can comfort her now is that the sewers of St. Freya College are not as messy as she imagined before.

But even so, after walking in the dark for a long time, she still inevitably stained her body with a little dust.

"Ugh..."

Looking at the white cuffs and skirt stained with gray dust stains due to passing through the sewer, Luo Chen could only frowned, and at the same time let out a helpless sigh.

However, the inquiries that had lingered in her ears before, and had finally been suspended for a while, began to explode from her ears again when she was in a state of desperation and helplessness.

"Really! What did that bastard Otto do to you! If you don't tell me, I will be very anxious!"

There was no warning and it seemed to be a loud shout close to his ears, which caused Luo Chen, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, to close his eyes and cover his ears with his hands at the same time.

"Nothing happened between me and him at all! And after all, why do you care so much about this matter?"

"Ah...this..."

Kallen, who was originally very concerned about this question, heard the answer and question given by Luo Chen, and her aggressive tone before, inexplicably weakened at this moment.

"I just don't want you to suffer any irreversible harm because of me..."

"Also, what he said about being in charge... always makes me...uh..."

Karen was speaking, but the voice of the words gradually decreased, and at the same time, her tone began to falter unconsciously.

"Reminds me what he did to you...that kind of..."

Hearing the other party's words that had begun to become incomplete, and combining what the other party had mentioned before, Luo Chen understood the meaning of the other party's words almost instantly

"No! Don't listen to his nonsense! There's no such thing!"

She refuted the terrible guess put forward by the other party, and at the same time, her fair cheeks began to flush because of being too excited.

"Really... no?"

"Of course not! I'm not a woman!"

"But you are now..."

"Wow, you are really annoying!"

Luo Chen, who tried his best to convince Karen that Otto hadn't done anything to him, and was about to let go of his brain and lay down on the ground, recalled that he was in a state of dementia before, An extremely stupid act.

Previously... why did I have to send the unconscious amber back to Otto in a flash of brain?Isn't that like selling yourself?

Sending Amber back to Otto means that he has sent his secret to Otto, which means that soon after, Otto may come here to harass him again.

Realizing that at some point in the future, she would have to negotiate face-to-face with the other party like today, she could only cover her head with her hands in despair, and uncontrollably had the desire to escape from here. idea.

But... After all, this is an idea that is simply impossible to realize...

But just when Luo Chen was sitting slumped on the ground, holding his cheeks with his hands, and completely sinking into self-abandonment, he heard an extremely familiar voice greeting in his ear.

"What is a man doing here?"

The gentle greeting from her ear made her, who was sitting paralyzed on the ground, involuntarily freeze her body, and at the same time, she couldn't control her face, showing a terrified expression.

And the identity of the owner of the voice should be so familiar to her that even if they are not facing each other, they can easily recognize it.

The panic in his heart was about to overflow, and Luo Chen felt the extremely close distance between the person behind him and him, so he could only choose to reply calmly by force, choose to evade the other party's proposal Soft greeting.

"No...I miss you..."

She said in a low voice while facing forward, not daring to look at each other with the people behind, for fear that the other party would deduce something unfavorable to her from it.

"I think you should admit your mistake..."

"I don't think I'm mistaken."

Facing the low-pitched answer given by Luo Chen who pretended to be calm, the person behind her suddenly spoke out at this moment, using that slightly playful tone, interrupting her weak, not yet fully successful, voice. struggle.

"Is not it..."

The person behind spoke softly in a playful tone, and then put his arms around Luo Chen's neck from behind, and approached her ear, using those gentle words moistened by breath, to make her give up completely. the last struggle.

"Mom Chen~"

Chapter 22

The sunshine after noon is warm and comfortable. When it reflects into the room filled with silence, the soft sunshine in the past is so insignificant.

From the appearance, the two should be mother and daughter, carrying tranquility, and under the sunshine, they entered the room that seemed a little empty.

They were sitting facing each other on the reception sofa in the room, but no one chose to be the first to speak out to open up the conversation between the two of them.

As a daughter, she was sitting on the sofa with her arms folded, and then looked at the mother sitting opposite her with peaceful eyes.

As a mother, she was sitting on the sofa with her hands on her knees, but she lowered her head slightly and did not dare to look at the daughter in front of her.

The two people, who were supposed to be familiar with each other and were inseparable, are facing each other in the strangest way at this moment...

We don't know how to speak to each other...

------

The hands on the clock kept moving their positions under the passing of silence, but the two people sitting facing each other failed to start the inevitable communication after all.

The mother who was sitting with her head bowed remained the same as before, but the daughter who was sitting across from her became a little difficult to maintain a peaceful face during this long and boring wait.

"call..."

A helpless sigh escaped from Teresa's mouth, breaking the lingering silence between the two, and at the same time deciding who should initiate this communication.

She put down her arms around her chest, and then looked up at the person sitting facing her. After confirming that the other person was still unresponsive, the peaceful expression on Teresa's face couldn't help but become a little broken.

She had already roughly guessed the truth, but she actually hoped to let the other party start the exchange between the two, but judging from the current situation of the other party...

It seems that I can only speak by myself.

Teresa was planning in her mind, and at the same time, she casually picked up the teacup containing the black tea that she didn't know when to brew, and took a sip...

Then he couldn't help but frowned when he was stimulated by the ice-cold black tea inside.

"Ugh..."

There was a whimper of unknown meaning, and at the same time, she put the teacup in the book back to its original position, and after calming down her somewhat unserious expression, Teresa straightened her posture again, and then opened the two This time, people must not escape the communication.

"how to say..."

She opened her mouth to speak, but the message she wanted to express in the words was inexplicably vague.

Obviously, she had completely confirmed the true identity of the person in front of her, but when Teresa really chose to speak, the strange feeling she had never experienced made her feel a little overwhelmed.

Why?Is it because of the appearance of the close relative that the other party presents now, or because of the other party whose traces are completely covered up by the appearance of the close relative, or both.

But even so, the inevitable conversation between the two will not be suspended because of Teresa's almost insignificant emotions.

"I don't know what to ask you better..."

The time for contemplation was fleeting, and many factors were considered during this time, but after Teresa finished thinking, she made the most appropriate request to the other party.

"I know that everyone in this world has secrets in their hearts that they don't want to let each other know. This includes you, and it also includes me. So..."

The low-pitched request was mixed with nervous emotions, but Teresa's face showed a gentle smile that could comfort people's hearts.

"Can you tell me all the truth that I can know?"

She knew that the other party who maintained the current appearance must have a completely inseparable relationship with her deceased mother.

Is it from the gift that the other party has exposed, the gift from his mother?Or is it the price to pay for using that gift?The reason for all this, Teresa is almost ignorant.

But Teresa was certain that the reason why the other party hid all this from her must be due to unspeakable difficulties.

"..."

The question mixed with tension gradually disappeared in the lingering silence between the two of them. It wasn't until after a short silence that seemed to last for centuries that Teresa saw that the man who had lowered his head and kept sitting upright The other party in the posture finally raised his head and looked at himself.

Then what Teresa saw was the other party's pale lips that had been kept tightly pressed for a long time, and the expression on his face that seemed to be about to cry immediately.

"Hey! No! Don't cry!"

Teresa, who has almost no coping methods and experience in the unexpected situation in front of her, can only stand up in a panic and reach out to caress the other's cheek at the same time, wanting to comfort her. In her opinion, even The other party who is about to start crying.

Then her hands that were about to touch the opponent's cheek were blocked by the opponent's hand in the middle.

"I... didn't want to cry...?"

"Forehead..."

The outstretched hands were held in the hands of the other party. Facing the other party who was puzzled at this moment but did not give her the same feeling as before, Teresa just froze for a moment, and then felt a little embarrassed from the other party's palm. Among them, he withdrew his hands.

She sat back on her seat, and at the same time put her hands behind her back, her face was a little reddish because of the shameful behavior before.

But fortunately, the atmosphere that seemed to be so quiet that people could stop breathing that lingered between the two people was significantly relieved after this embarrassing episode.

After all, the communication between the two of them has inevitably and completely opened its own curtain.

After looking at Teresa who was sitting across from her and fell into an inexplicable state due to her own reasons, Luo Chen just put his hands on his knees again, and at the same time, his face showed a little tiredness and nervousness .

"Where should I start..."

There was a little tension in her peaceful words, but the content expressed in them was what Teresa was most eager to know.

"That was still in Changkong City, before I met you. At that time, I was lucky to receive a gift from your mother."

"In that gift, there are knowledge, power, and the most precious memories that belong to your mother."

"As time goes by, I have become more and more proficient in using the gift from your mother."

"I have gained almost the same power as your mother, and I have acquired almost exactly the same knowledge. At the same time, I have glimpsed more memories about your mother."

She whispered, while closing her eyes, and pressed her palm against her chest, where was the source of all her strength.

"Until that time passed, I got the last item in your mother's gift to me..."

"That item looks like your mother..."

She paused, and opened her eyes at the same time, looking at Teresa, there was fear that Teresa had never seen before.

"I didn't know until not long ago that I will still be me after all, even if I have all your mother's power, knowledge, memory and even appearance."

"But what about the me under this appearance, and the relationship between you and me?"
