I seriously doubt there is something wrong with my Chaldea

This... what is this! ?

Lixiang opened his eyes wide subconsciously, wanting to spit out the sour thing in his mouth, but Matthew couldn't wait to ask: "Senior... how does it taste?"

"Well...the taste...it's...delicious."

Lixiang's teeth chattered for a while, and the subconscious words were already spoken faster than the speech after his reaction, and he was too embarrassed to spit out the stuff in his mouth like this, so...

"Gu..."

Lixiang's throat turned and he forcibly swallowed the bit of flesh.

"Crack, click - click -"

Afterwards, Li Xiang looked at the bitten fruit in his hand with a sad face, but fortunately he closed his eyes and gnawed all the flesh from the unknown fruit in one breath.

"Gulu... Gugugu...!"

Enduring the strong sour taste and his body's resistance to the green fruit, Lixiang finally swallowed it after numbly and vigorously refusing it twice.

Well... At least I can't taste it now... At most, I will only have diarrhea or stomach pain in the future...

Lixiang thought of this while chattering her teeth.

"........."

And Theia was full of curiosity about Lixiang's current appearance.

There is no doubt that the taste of the fruit will not be very good, but why didn't Theia refuse?Clearly refusing... You don't have to eat that nasty food if you refuse, don't you?

Then why is he still eating?It is obviously an immature fruit but you still want to eat it, you find it difficult to eat but you still force yourself to say it is delicious...why is this?

For some reason, the goddess suddenly discovered that Lixiang's behavior at this time seemed to be a bit similar to her own, but she was a little unable to understand this kind of thing... Why is this?

Theia slowly closed her eyes, but she was still observing Lixiang and Mash.

"Eat... eat well, now it should be..."

Li Xiang exhaled, and suddenly had a feeling that he was about to escape from birth. He felt that the juice of the fruit was sour in his teeth, so uncomfortable... maybe he would have to carry it on his back for a while. Matthew went to rinse her mouth...

"How can eating just one be enough? You won't be full at all, right?"

Matthew's words made Lixiang, who felt that he was about to escape from birth, suddenly fall into a deep valley.

Mash was also eating that kind of fruit, but from the look of his expression, there was nothing abnormal at all. The girl cast her eyes on Lixiang, and her pink hair swayed gently with the breeze, which was very cute.

Mash was a little surprised, why the senior looked so bad, but she still handed Lixiang a fruit like just now.

It's dead now...

Li Xiang swallowed, feeling that she might not see the sun the next day.

However, after a few seconds of pause, he finally picked up a new fruit and bit it down.

"……Eh?"

He couldn't help but widen his eyes, sweet?

Doubting whether it was because the fruit was too poisonous, Li Xiang couldn't help but gnawed another fruit.

"Senior, please don't use this way of eating...there are more here."

Matthew watched Lixiang sip left and right, and couldn't help frowning to remind him.

"……Um."

Lixiang responded, but it is unknown whether he heard what Matthew was saying.

The same crystal-clear juice fell into the mouth together with the pulp, but this time the pulp was not as green and hard and brittle as before, but with a little softness, the pulp fell into the mouth, juice and saliva Mix together like candy is about to melt.

"Gu..."

Lixiang's throat moved again, and the saliva mixed with juice and pulp was swallowed into the stomach.

After eating these fruits, Lixiang and Matthew really had nothing to talk about. After all, there was a goddess who kept silent by her side, so after eating these fruits, Lixiang and the others fell asleep beside the fire up.

Before going to bed, Lixiang's pupils of the star sea reflected the flames in front of her eyes, but she was reminiscing about the unavoidable sourness left in her mouth.

...It's really a green fruit...

"...パワーを接り出せ...ハダカのままのdesireで..."

The words and phrases of the song that should have been forgotten in my mind were suddenly recalled. At the edge of the silent forest and at the foot of the mountain, the young man lying by the campfire softly sang the song that he loved so much in the past.

"まだ甜くはない、青い果実でしょ..."

"Hitomi を Jing か に 关じ, 小さな种を把って..."

"I'm leaving りせば, くはずこの思い...!"

"..."

The girl moved. Originally, she didn't fall asleep immediately, but after Lixiang sang, she was completely awake.

"Senior, when was this song? Why haven't I heard it before? I haven't heard you sing it before..."

Matthew couldn't help getting up and asking Lixiang.

"Hey, it's nothing, it's just an old song, it's getting late, sleep well."

I unintentionally came to sing for a while in the second class, and was discovered by Matthew. Lixiang, who felt ashamed all of a sudden, turned around after fooling Matthew, and fell asleep obediently .

Ma Xiu watched Lixiang fall asleep with a face of embarrassment, and she didn't want to ask too much, but said in a very low voice when she lay down again and fell asleep: "It's actually quite nice... this song ..."

Saying that, Matthew also fell asleep again.

The surroundings of the bonfire returned to calm, and only after the boy and girl really fell asleep, the goddess who had been silent by the side opened her golden eyes again.

'Theia, do you still feel like an unripe fruit...? '

'Who do you want to pass on the thoughts in your mouth...? '

Chapter 18: The Centaur Sage

Early the next morning, Lixiang and Matthew got up.

To be precise, the two of them were not asleep at all, after all, they lived in the wilderness of this Age of Gods world.

The two people in Venice, the third singularity, allowed both of them to grow considerably, and at the same time reduced their dependence on each other to a certain extent. At the same time, they were flexible in a lonely environment. His ability has been significantly improved, and he also has a keen sense of vigilance.

Obviously, although the separation of the two people in Venice directly caused the two of them to be in danger at that time, but from the perspective of them who have now got rid of the predicament, the danger of that time still brought them great benefits.

The so-called loss of a fortune is a blessing in disguise... Probably it is about this kind of time.

"Are we ready to go?"

Li Xiang, who had already rested completely, asked energetically.

"I'm fully prepared! Senior!"

The pink-haired girl also asked with an unconcealed excitement on her face, but after her vigorous answer, Matthew couldn't help but add another sentence: "That...Senior, can I contact the doctors and the others now?"

"Uh……"

Lixiang was stuck for a while, and the energetic look on his face was a little weaker, he said with some regret: "I still can't get in touch..."

"But then again...Theia...Theia?"

Lixiang muttered something to himself, then turned around suddenly, the bright pupils of the star sea wanted to catch the figure of the beautiful goddess, but he turned around, but there was no sign of the goddess.

"What's the matter, why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

Suddenly, a pleasant voice rang directly in the minds of Lixiang and Matthew, without going through the ears at all, so it was impossible to identify where she was.

"Theia...? Theia? Are you—"

He was still very anxious not to see the goddess Lixiang, but there was no figure of the goddess around him... He was still there just now...

Li Xiang's eyes quickly scanned the surroundings, and suddenly, he felt a little stuffy in his chest, as if he was lightly pressed by something.

"Theia!?"

"Miss Theia!?"

Immediately, with the exclamation of Lixiang and Matthew, the beautiful goddess sat in the air, casually crossed her legs, revealing a faint sense of holiness and sublime in the invisible laziness.

It's just that the distance between her and Lixiang is so close, so Matthew saw a pair of long legs wrapped in light white translucent gauze fall in front of Lixiang, and then the light gauze stockings until Yu Tou's feet stopped abruptly.

The bare feet exposed to the air are as white as jade, the nails are distributed evenly and neatly, and the short five-fingered cardamom stepped on Lixiang's breastplate and was slightly deformed due to being lightly pressed, becoming a full elastic oval shape, faintly moving. The breath was mixed with a certain kind of vigorous sweet fragrance, which penetrated Lixiang's chest and into his nasal cavity.

"Theia...?! You..."

Li Xiang looked up at the goddess dully, but when he raised his head, he saw that it was not her face, but...

Fujimaru Tachika gave up thinking.

He didn't see anything—he wanted to justify it, but some kind of scarlet liquid unconsciously flowed from his nose had put him on the line with public execution.

... I ... saw something beautiful ... cough.

"T... Theia... You said..."

Mash wiped off some kind of red liquid coming out of Lixiang's nose very considerately, and after being molested speechlessly, Lixiang took a deep breath and said.

"Maxiu and I have been running with you like this, is it really okay?"

Theia sat upright and paused with the mid-air body. She had already guessed that Lixiang would ask her this question, and she said calmly, "What's wrong?"

"Whether you took us to find Prometheus or Chiron, the purpose is for me-although it is quite shameless to say such words from the mouth of the person involved...but right?"

"I mean just one thing...we can't waste any more time."

Li Xiang couldn't help saying that Li Xiang, who has experienced three singularities, has become very sensitive to the concept of time. On the first day, Theia took them around, but this singularity, this era still needs them to go. Fix it, go rescue it.

"But this is just the process necessary to create a hero."

Theia replied of course: "Since you want to go to Chiron, then go. Although his status as the son of Cronus makes me extremely unhappy, but even I understand his wisdom and technology." .”

"Learning from a sage is a necessary journey, so why don't you just say no to the next thing?"

Listening to Theia's words, Lixiang couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"Although what you said makes a little sense... oh no, it doesn't make sense at all, but six months after the birth of the singularity, it is really urgent that the entire era undergoes a change. We can no longer waste time leisurely."

Speaking of this, Matthew couldn't help but nodded and said: "Well, yes, we don't have much time left, not to mention that Chaldea can't last until the second year, we have to repair all the problems within one year. Only the uniqueness of the..."

"...Oh, I didn't expect you to be quite impatient."

Regarding Lixiang and Matthew's words, Theia sighed without any emotion, fixed his eyes on Lixiang, but glanced at Matthew without any trace.

"However, what you are talking about within a year... is that place called Chaldea, and you are talking about a year in the future after 3000 years, and you are... here now."

"?"

Lixiang and Matthew glanced at each other, isn't that the same as what they said?What's the difference...

"and many more."

Suddenly Matthew reacted, and she asked as if waking up from a dream: "Miss Theia means that the singularity we are in is not the same as the time flow of Chaldea's era, so we can stay here for a long time. Is it time?"

"Hmph, you're smart, human."

"But what about the singularity itself?"

Li Xiang asked: "This is not something that the speed of time can interfere with."

"That's true, but since the existence of the singularity has existed for such a long time for the first time, and there is still no change, this may mean that the change may not happen so fast, right? ?”

"That's right...but..."

"Don't worry, Theia, you just need to enjoy everything brought by being a hero, any heresy, any monster, any mutation will become your merit..."

Theia interrupted what Lixiang was about to say, the already tall body slowly fell from mid-air, she stretched out her hands, hugged Lixiang's cheek, and said softly.

"Don't worry, you never need to worry about when the disaster will come. He will definitely appear at the end of your journey to become a hero... because whenever I want him to come, he has to appear at that time."

The ancient goddess put her cherry lips close to Lixiang's ear, speaking like a guarantee and a declaration.

"Um……"
