The strongest witch is a boy [Comprehensive]

"Peacock!"

Kartikeye called the peacock several times before he responded, but the way he responded was a bit strange-the child hugged his neck directly, and buried his head on his shoulder, his body trembling slightly, but The strength in the hand was too strong, not at all the strength that a child of this age should have, and it was very obvious that he would not let go of his hand.

Kartikeya knows when people hug others so tightly—the joy of a long-lost reunion, or the fear and anxiety of an impending parting.But he didn't know why the peacock behaved like this, so he just hugged the peacock and patted his back to comfort him.

"It's okay, Peacock, you are safe, in Asura City, no one will hurt you..."

The peacock hugged Kartikeye's neck tightly, clenched his teeth and refused to cry, lowered his head, and the deliberately long forehead blocked his third eye on the front of the forehead again, and also blocked him. His expression concealed all his emotions in shadows that no one could see.

No, you don't understand.

Your Highness, you do not understand.

What I'm afraid of is not someone hurting me, but someone hurting you...

Jia Luo hesitated for a while before picking up the tin rod, and held it in front of Kartikeye with both hands.

"Your Highness, this tin rod..."

"Let's put it in the temple first, and I'll send it to the Astrology Palace later. Just pretend you don't know about it."

For the time being, Kartikeye could only care about the peacock, and the tin staff couldn't escape anyway.

——If the temples of the Asuras can also be stolen, then I am afraid that there is no safer and more secret place in the heavens.

Jia Luo responded, and put the tin stick beside the altar, put it together with other sacrificial vessels, and stood beside him respectfully with his hands down.

Kartikeye coaxed the peacock for a while, and finally felt that he had relaxed his strength. He looked down and smiled.

The peacock fell asleep.

Although he fell asleep, the child still maintained the previous posture - holding his neck with both hands, frowning slightly, and there were still tears in the corners of his eyes.

It's okay, the child has encountered so many things suddenly, let's rest first.

At this time, Kartikeye looked at Jialuo and Shezhi again, and suddenly asked a question that surprised them.

"Decades have passed since you became shrine maidens, are you still used to your current life?"

Jia Luo was stunned, and Shezhi was also stunned.

But the reasons why the two are stunned at this moment are completely different.

Jia Luo didn't know how to answer this question at all. She used to feel vaguely uneasy in the long years, but with a strong sense of mission, she forced herself to "forget" - no longer think about when she was a human being, no longer Think back to the tribes of the past.

How else to think about it?

At this moment, even if Jia Luo still wants to call herself a "human being" or "a member of the Luozuo tribe", she has already lost all evidence that can be used to prove her identity.

His father, Ying, who was once the head of the Luozuo clan, passed away, and his mother, Mana, had long since passed away. Jialuo’s only relatives in the world are his twin sister, Shezhi, and she and her sister still have the same blood relationship, but they are no longer the "human beings" of the past. Twins"——in this city of Ashura, on the altar of this temple, and in the baptism of magic flames, she obtained a new bloodline, and also obtained the qualification to ascend to the gods.From the moment she changed from a "human being" to an "Asura tribe", she clearly understood that this was a great honor, but also a huge shackle. From then on, she would lose her freedom and no longer miss the "past" "Qualifications.

Jia Luo always reminds herself that there is only one thing she should do: as a member of the Asura clan, she will serve the Asura clan wholeheartedly, and as a priestess of the Ashura clan, she will serve their king wholeheartedly.

What about Shefa?

Shezhi started to notice this problem a little later than Jia Luo.

At the beginning, she was immersed in the dream of being immortal and youthful, and she had no time to think. Every day she woke up, she just became more sure that it was natural for her to get the luxury and glory she has today. As time went by, she gradually realized that She didn't know how to describe the "scary" for a while, but she already vaguely understood why Kartikeye, who watched his father die when he visited the Luozuo clan, had that expression.

The immortal god race and the human race with a lifespan of only a few decades, even if the two once formed a friendship, in the face of time, no matter how deep the relationship is, it will be diluted to nothing.

If she was still a human being, she would probably be old at this moment, and the fire of life would be extinguished at any time.

Shezhi will never forget what her father looks like when she gets old, nor can she forget how old Luozuo people look when they are sick. That's why she is so afraid of "oldness". , and finally left this world old and ugly.

Therefore, Shezhi did not hesitate to abandon the position of Luozuo patriarch who had once fought for it, and left his hometown for Ashura City.

However, Shezhi is still very young now, and she still looks like she did when she became a witch.

Longevity, beauty, strength, and status, Shezhi has obtained everything she dreamed of when she was a girl. How could she feel uneasy, how could she be afraid?

This was her dream, and this was her dream come true.

After a while, Shezhi replied with a smile: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. Shezhi likes life very much."

Kartikeye's expression remained unchanged, looking at Jia Luo.

"Does Jia Luo think so too?"

After a while, Jia Luo replied softly: "I sometimes think of the tribe, but... now I am a priestess of the Asura tribe, so I will do my best."

Hearing these words, Shezhi couldn't help but feel a sense of hatred for iron.

Sister, we are already the maidens of the Asura tribe, what's the point of missing the weak tribe in the past?Apart from attracting the wrath of the Asura clan, it is meaningless at all.

However, what happened next was completely beyond her expectations.

What Jia Luo waited for was not a criticism from the Asura prince, but a gentle apology.

"Sorry, I was negligent... I originally thought that I would not stay for too long when I went to the border with Brother Wang, but I didn't expect to stay for so many years at once. Originally, I wanted to live in the city for a while so that you can get used to it more. Life in Asura City."

Kartikeye smiled softly and said, "If it's not too late, you can tell me if you are not used to it, or if you want to go back to the old tribe to visit old people. I... used to be a human race, so I know exactly what this change of identity means. Other clansmen or brother Wang, those heavenly beings who were born as gods cannot experience this kind of pain. I have come over from such pain, and I hope you can get through it smoothly. Especially Jia Luo, you keep everything in your heart like this, if the pain suddenly erupts, it will be unbearable for you."

Jia Luo was stunned again, and it took a long time before he nodded with tears in his eyes, and replied softly: "Thank you, Your Highness Kartikeye."

Shezhi clenched her fist unwillingly.

This is her negligence - she has known for a long time that the prince of the Asura clan is a different kind among the Asura clan, with an overly benevolent heart, but also has the inferiority of a human man, always wanting to protect and appear weaker lovely women.Act strong in front of him and you'll be ignored.

She kept her identity in mind, lowered her head to prevent being seen through, and laughed silently.

"Shezhi is too."

When Kartikeye's words reached her ears, Shezhi hadn't reacted yet, she just subconsciously responded because she heard her name, and when she raised her head to meet the gaze of the boy in front of her, she realized, The young prince who had just been slandered by her was looking at her tenderly.

"Shezhi is smart and strong, but, after all, she is still a young girl, it is inevitable that there will be times when she is suddenly depressed when she is alone? No matter when, as long as I am still in Asura City, when you feel confused and painful , you can come to me.”

Kartikeye stretched out his hand, just like an elder treats a junior, and gently stroked the top of Shezhi's hair.

"You... have already reached this age. Back then, the eagle was almost at this age and walked towards death calmly. The flames of the Ashura took away the 'death' from you, but the power could not take away the 'pain' The priestesses of our family will not live together with ordinary clansmen, and it will inevitably make you feel isolated... But, please don't forget that the priestess is the half body of the king, and is with King Ashura."

Having said that, he withdrew his hand, looked at Jia Luo who was at the side, and said with a little embarrassment: "Brother Wang is still at the border, so I should take the responsibility of protecting you."

Shezhi remained silent, trying to calm down the uncontrollable intense emotions in his heart.

Jia Luo walked slowly in front of Kartikeye, knelt down quietly, touched the corner of the other party's clothes with both hands, and begged with sobs: "Your Highness...Your Highness, please forgive me...I lied , I do feel afraid... In recent years, as my age has gradually approached my father's age, I have become more and more afraid. If I were still a human being, I should be old and dying, right? But I am not at all It hasn't changed...I don't know how to get rid of this anxiety...Forgive me, Your Highness, you chose me as a cowardly and incompetent Miko, I am sorry for this honor..."

Seeing the appearance of her twin sister at this moment, Shezhi couldn't help raising her eyebrows, showing a surprised expression, she thought for a while, walked forward, saluted with the same soft posture, and said softly: "Your Highness, please rest assured, I will accompany and comfort my sister..."

She embraced Jia Luo's shoulders, and helped her up without any trace, so that Jia Luo and Kartikeye no longer had any contact.

Just as Kartikeye was about to speak, the boy in his arms suddenly uttered an indistinct dream. He thought he was holding him in the wrong position, so he changed to a position that would make the peacock more comfortable. With his right hand, he signaled the two witches to stand up. Sighing, he said, "So, throughout the ages, two priestesses have been needed... You support each other and depend on each other... But what if you both feel uneasy? Who will comfort you, Shezhi ?”

Shezhi, who pretended to be cute, was stunned.

Kartikeye patted each of them on the shoulders, and when his eyes swept over the ruby ​​hair ornament in Shezhi's hair again, he thought for a moment, hooked the golden silk rope around his neck with one hand, and pulled it out from under his clothes. He picked up a pendant, held the stone, easily tore off the rope, and put the stone in Jia Luo's hand.

Jia Luo was overwhelmed by the prince's gift.

"Your Highness, this is..."

"This is an amulet obtained from the Luozuo Clan's ceremony."

Kartikeye couldn't help laughing when he thought of the past.

"At that time, Eagle snatched this stone and gave it to me as a talisman, and I returned a hair ornament as a gift."

"what……"

Jia Luo had already understood, she knew about this past, and subconsciously looked at Shezhi.

The return gift from the Asura prince was now shining in her sister's hair.

Shezhi's pupils froze, Cong Huiru had already guessed what this meant.

She was happy for her sister again, and felt an indescribable jealousy.

Kartikeye didn't notice the strangeness of Shezhi, looked at Jia Luo gently, and continued: "Now, I give it to you, hoping that it will protect you like it protects me."

Jia Luo was flattered, and carefully held the stone in his hand, full of surprises, bursting into laughter in an instant.

"Yes, thank you Your Highness! This... This is the most precious gift I have ever received, and I will definitely treasure it carefully!"

Kartikeye smiled, "I saw you when you were still in Mana's womb..." Speaking of which, he shook his head and did not continue to recall the past, "Don't worry, don't need to be afraid, you don't have to Deny your past, and don't be afraid to accept your present. One day, when you will call yourself Asura for granted, you will no longer feel uneasy. I will take the peacock back to rest, and I will later Playing the piano by the fountain. Come over if you want to hear it, and I'll be there about the same time every day."

Jia Luo and Shezhi had their own thoughts, and also happily sent the prince away.
