To the eternal you

"...However, compared to the me at that time, the impression I give to my mother now must be completely different."

At least at that time, she never showed this cowardice, and she didn't dare to expect Ying's mother to always like her.

Qi asked with some confusion.

"Ah...it does change a little bit."

Ying replied frankly, and at the same time tilted his head slightly, the hair on his shoulders was hanging down, his inadvertent movements were unexpectedly cute.

"But it's not that big of a difference."

"Even so, will mother still maintain this liking?"

Qi didn't want to get some kind of promise like a pledge of eternal love from here, but just wanted to feel at ease.

She took a deep breath, and stared at Ying's mother with eyes as gentle as night: "I know, mother is a god who yearns for eternity, and eternity is unchanging, so...compared with my mood, I think Sure enough, mother's dream is more important!"

Not far away, there were birds flying from the water, splashing tiny waves, and everything returned to calm.

"...Qi, why do you think so?" Ying, who turned his gaze away from the bird, asked again.

"Because I know... From that memory, I can feel how much she attached importance to her mother's wish. If everyone lives in the world, there is a meaning of existence. To realize my mother's wish The wish must be Raidenqi's meaning of survival or wish."

Qi gently covered his heart, and narrated the throbbing that originated from his memory.

"..."

There was a hint of sadness in Ying's gaze, which was extremely light but profound, like a sigh.

"Qi, you have said it before, our relationship will definitely change."

She looked directly at the girl with a guilty expression, and said softly.

"Thunder and lightning, fleeting. But even thunder and lightning have an unchanging side, seizing eternity... Or trying to grasp eternity, I witnessed her disappearance, and I asked myself at that time. "

"Is this the eternity I want, or is it the end?"

Qi's eyes widened involuntarily, and there was a flash of panic and fear.

""I" failed to realize my mother's "eternity"..."

"I'm sorry...I lied to Qi, I also deceived myself, and everyone in Dazuma. I tried to convince myself that this is eternity, and told myself that the reason why Qi did that was because of my punishment for cheating her, It is the price of pursuing eternity."

Ying stretched out her hands, her slender fingers wearing middle finger cuffs contracted slightly, she seemed to see the dissipated light, and her tone gradually became sentimental.

"But sure enough... I can't accept that kind of eternity, and I can't accept the eternity I'm after without her. What I want to create is not an eternity that can only be obtained by sacrificing prayers. The punishment I get is only It’s just your own fault.”

"What's more, on this journey of pursuing eternity, I was the only one who didn't pay the price. I was just witnessing the continuous loss of important people, and I would only lament my own powerlessness and stupidity, but I never changed."

Qi fell silent, feeling bitter.

"Thunder and lightning are fleeting. But no matter how fast the thunder and lightning are, they can't catch up with the loss. The world operates according to such rules... Pray, to me, you are a miracle."

Her words touched the girl's helpless heart, and her tone was extremely gentle.

"Even after so many years, your appearance and voice, as well as the most fundamental tenderness of thinking about others, have not changed."

"But what if... I become another person, completely different from what I am now, or my personality becomes selfish and only thinks about myself?"

The girl frantically argued that her mother's wish hadn't been fulfilled, or it had been fulfilled in a way she didn't like, and she seemed to have changed her mind now. Isn't that just denying Raidenqi in the past.

I don't want to get such an answer. It is because of chasing her in memory that Qi became what she is now. The Raiden Qi that everyone recognizes, the Raiden Qi who helped her mother fulfill her eternal wish...is too far away and too far away. The thunderbolt prayer she longed for.

And the Raiden Qi that her mother said failed to fulfill her eternal wish... That was too strange to her, as if she was also denying herself.

"No, I hope it won't become like that."

The general said firmly.

And Ying also turned his face sideways to watch the seemingly calm surface of the lake ripple with the movement of the boat.

"It's really a pity if Qi becomes like that, but... I don't like Shangqi simply because of the appearance or the heart."

In the long experience of the gods, why hasn't such a person appeared?

But only that ignorant girl broke into her world in a daze, and still approached with that sharp edge facing the outside world.

Even after I have done so many things wrong, I still choose to forgive myself.

"Qi, in fact, you don't have to be so gentle all the time, or... If Qi is always so gentle to everyone, I will definitely be jealous. I will also feel worried, and even think that someone might like Shang Qi, and Qi If I also like the other party, I will be disappointed, but it is the disappointment that I can't continue to like Qi."

The emotion in that speech is as delicate and delicate as a feather.

"I am very clear, very clear about this liking or love? Where did it come from, and I also understand what is bothering Qi."

She looked directly at the girl with incomparably straightforward eyes and said.

"The so-called liking doesn't mean that Qi is not like what he is now, or that he can't do what he used to be, and it doesn't mean that it doesn't matter how Qi becomes..."

Shadow gently placed his hand on the girl's head, rubbing it gently.

"I believe that Qi will always be what I like, whether it was before or now, it is because of this trust that I can say that eternity is not the eternity I want."

"In the past, I was too weak and treated Qi as a child... I never considered her thoughts, just imposed what I wanted on Qi, and made her bear such a heavy wish. This is undoubtedly a mistake of."

She and her pupils reflect each other.

"But that's not wrong, she is very gentle, she has always been with me, and gave me unilateral trust. She knows how weak the real me is, but she is still willing to believe in me... It is because of her that I can reach here."

"So...so..."

Looking at the extremely shaken Qi, Ying knew in her heart that this must be very heavy for Qi, but now this child can't be allowed to continue thinking wildly, she said softly.

"Qi, what I want to say is... a very selfish thing, and it should have been said to you at that time."

"Pray——Even if the posture is different, you are still you. You exist here, and you can step into tomorrow with me. This is the best wish for me, and it is the eternity I hope to achieve."

At the same time as the words fell, on the small boat, Ying's legs slightly closed, overlapping with the girl's ankles, and there was a soft rustling sound from the gorgeous lavender silk stockings.

On the lake, the boat floated quietly like a maple leaf falling into the water.

The minds of the people on board also calmed down.

It was a kind of tranquility that was opposite to the constant ups and downs after being told your heart in the past.

Eternity is far away, but... this time is near.

Unlike Qi, Ying is extremely nervous now, the words just now have emptied all her knowledge reserves.

What would you think...?
