Seeing Charles' shocked face from ear to ear, Angie couldn't help but laugh out loud and told him her true origins.

This matter was her deepest secret, even when she was drunk and crazy by Slade, she didn't say it in detail.

But at this moment, fully awake, she very carefully and patiently told this young man who was several years younger than herself about "she came from another world", and even told him other secrets:
A mysterious female voice occasionally helps her in her mind. She is mistaken for Tilusa by the Goddess Statue and the King of Curses. She is sworn to follow by Sean because of the tattoo on her chest. She even enters what seems to be a "soul space" many times. place, where she met Slade twice (most likely a soul imprint)... These secrets that she had hidden in her heart for a long time were all carefully told to Charles by her.

At the same time, Charles showed strong understanding and tolerance, and quickly accepted her special identity as a "traveler", and her mood became particularly relaxed.

It turns out that telling all your secrets in front of someone who trusts you can really make people feel at ease.

However, after Angie revealed all the secrets, Charles appeared very distressed. Not only did he lower his head with a sad expression, but he also occasionally scratched his head in annoyance, which made Angie couldn't help but snicker next to him:
"What's wrong? You don't want to hear this?"

"How is that possible? It's just that your experiences are too complicated, and it's hard for me to come up with a reasonable explanation... But now, the biggest problem is what I said before: you are too prone to danger. Although this world That’s how it was originally, but the frequency and severity of the crises you are encountering now are far beyond the reasonable range!”

After saying that, he sighed heavily and looked up at the girl with long black hair.It was obviously a different look from them, but after knowing these things, Charles realized: It turns out that she, a girl with fair and delicate appearance, did not just "look a little special", but came from another world, Someone from another place.

His eyes swept over the girl's overly delicate skin and not-deep eye sockets. He met her eyes with those charming light golden pupils and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "So, I must continue to call you Angie, right? Even if this isn’t your name?”

"Names are just for convenience, I don't care that much."

Angie had already told him her real name when she just said that.But she also emphasized that "it's not convenient to use this name" and she can only be Angie Greske now.

Seeing Charles' depressed expression, Angie also smiled bitterly and reached out to touch his head again: "Don't worry so much. I will regret telling you this."

"I'm fine. It's just that your current situation is really difficult. I can't think of a solution for a while."

As he spoke, he looked up at Anji and analyzed seriously: "Based on what you just said, I think the biggest problem right now is the one named 'Tilusa'. I have never heard of this name. , but listening to your description of the situation when you met the Cursed King, don't you think that this guy is probably here to find 'Tilusa'? This is also the most dangerous situation you have encountered so far, right?"

"Well... that's what I said, but don't you think she acted quite strangely?" Anji frowned and thought, "Judging from the fact that she thought I had some connection with Tilusa and wanted to kill me, She and Tilusa were supposed to have an antagonistic relationship. But later, she didn't do anything to me, but threw me into her strange world. In the end, she even possessed Iselin. While taunting Karima, In fact, it indirectly protected us..."

"Do you think the relationship between her and Tilusa is not that bad? Or is it some kind of very subtle relationship?" Charles asked with a frown.

"Yes," Angie nodded, "So the main question now is - will she suddenly appear again? Will she possess Iselin again? What exactly does she want to do?"

"Actually, judging from the situation in which Iselin was possessed before, her combat effectiveness in that state is not very strong - at least she is not a threat to you now."

With that said, Charles suddenly changed the subject and added to her seriously: "However, that gray-skinned eldest sister is one of the three most recognized cursed creatures in the world today, and her strength may even exceed that of the lord. If she really wants to If I attack you, even Slade may not be able to protect you."

"Is it such an exaggeration... So how strong is Slade approximately?"

Angie muttered in a low voice, always feeling that there was a lack of realism - after all, she only knew that Slade's patience value seemed to be around 200, but there was no numerical value, which did not allow her to imagine what this guy would actually fight. So.

"Slade is the lord with the highest endurance value at present, except for the Papal State and the Oberyn Empire whose strength is unknown," Charles said seriously. "She is the only one who has been to level 9 alien lands. It was also at that time that we You know, there is such a high concentration of cursed areas in this world."

"Huh? Then isn't she an expedition pioneer? The first echelon?"

Angie tilted her head in surprise and saw Charles nodding in agreement, and then warned her seriously: "So, you must not have the idea of ​​secretly setting up your own business - regardless of the difficulty of achieving it. , just looking at Slade’s character, she would probably abandon government affairs and hunt you all over the world.”

Looking at his stern look, Angie knew that Charles was really worried about her.When Hardfer defected before, Slade did go to the vicinity of Grand Village to hunt him down. He just happened to run into Angie and Scott and saved them both by accident.

However, no matter what she said, she was still a little reluctant to give up this long-awaited dream, and said in a low tone: "But... I still want to have my own territory. Is there really no way to achieve it?"

"So, why do you want to have a territory?" For a moment, Charles' mood became complicated.

"Because...because...I don't seem to be able to feel at ease in other people's territory."

After saying this hesitantly, Angie finally made up his mind, looked up at Charles, and expressed his true thoughts with a wry smile: "Originally, I just wanted to have a place where I could feel at ease: a place where I could have more peace of mind. A place where I have more choices instead of taking orders from others. In addition, I come from another world. I always feel that I am special and want to make a difference, so that I will not waste my time coming here... I Now that I think about it, isn’t this kind of thinking too self-righteous?”

At the end of the sentence, Anji's voice became softer and softer, and she felt so sad that she couldn't help but lower her head and look at the ground.

Although she came from time travel, she did show amazing talent and adaptability. In just over two months, she had reached a level that normal people would never reach in a lifetime... But all of this was really because of Was she willing to work hard, endure hardship, and earn it on her own?
As a descendant of a lord, Charles had the most abundant resources and the best background in the world. Not only was he extremely talented, he was even ridiculously diligent, and his hands were rough and calloused.But even so, it took him nearly 20 years to reach 158 patience points, and it only took him more than two months to jump to 137, which was only 21 points behind him.

Although the higher the endurance value is, the harder it is to increase it, and the strength growth brought by each point of endurance value will be greater, but in comparison, she really looks like a monster who only relies on talent.

monster.Slade once used this word to describe Angie, and everyone who knew her situation was shocked by her growth rate. Even if they didn't say it outright on the spot, they would definitely have thought of the word "monster" in their minds.

So, am I really a monster...?Could she really be proud of herself?

"Chi Qingsui...right?"

Hearing this slightly jerky but very coherent pronunciation, Anji suddenly came back to her senses and looked at the black-haired young man in front of her.

He smiled brightly, as always, but at this moment, this bright smile seemed a bit too dazzling in Anji's eyes, making her nose feel slightly sore accidentally:
"Hmm...have you secretly practiced it in your mind?"

"Well, that's right~ Otherwise it would be bad if I couldn't pronounce your name at the critical moment~"

As if he didn't see the glimmer and embarrassment in her eyes, Charles smiled naturally, touched her head, closed his eyes and recalled:

"The black sun in the strange world of Norson Village is the weirdest thing I have ever seen in my life. Just hanging far away in the sky, it can completely control people's spirits, and I have not been able to escape from it at all. The control was so firmly fixed in place that I couldn't even think.

"However, in that desperate situation, a girl stood up with her subordinates and walked up to me. In the darkness, I could not see anything, I could only see what seemed to be something in front of me. A small spot of light, as if someone was gently touching my forehead with her fingertips. "She said to me in a very gentle and calm voice, 'You did a good job, thank you for saving me. and Sean'. "

Having said this, he opened his eyes and looked at the girl sitting in front of him with her eyes downcast and silent, biting her lips in sadness, and said with a smile:

"If you want to form a territory, then go for it. You are the most powerful and gentle person I have ever met. I believe you can do this, and I will accompany you to do this. But this matter needs to be planned in the long run. , be careful, you must know that, right?"

"But why do you want to accompany me?"

Her voice was trembling, and it was very difficult for Chi Qingsui to speak in a normal tone.

She didn't understand why this prince, who was well-off, well-informed, and so outstanding in all aspects, had such a high opinion of her, and why he accompanied her to do such stupid things.

"You really don't know?"

Charles asked with a very soft tone, just like a gentle teacher trying to comfort a student who made a mistake.

But the more this happened, the less she dared to raise her head, dare not look at his expression at the moment, and dare not meet his eyes.

She knew, seemed to know, but...

dare not face it.

Something gently fell on her head at this moment, and the warm body temperature spread to her scalp through her hair, making her feel a little itchy.With extremely gentle movements, Charles gently and carefully rubbed her head, looked at her with a slight smile, and sighed softly:
"Hey, tell me, how could such a smart girl suddenly become stupid at a time like this?"

Lowering her head without retorting, Chi Qingsui breathed a long sigh of relief silently, trying to calm down her emotions, but the next second she heard his helpless but doting voice:
"You behave like this, and I don't even dare to confess - are you thinking about how to reject me, so you stayed silent for so long?"

"I...what can I do? I have too many problems. Maybe one day, I will die suddenly in a foreign land, or I will be hacked to death by Slade because I made her unhappy - I am now How can we talk about feelings in this situation?"

She didn't look up at Charles, nor was she surprised by his words. She just felt weak in her heart.

However, listening to her well-founded refusal, Charles did not feel disappointed. He just couldn't help but smile and rubbed her head again:
"Why don't we work together? To be honest, before today, I never thought that there could be such a stupid person in the world - he takes everything on his own, keeps all the secrets in his heart, even among his own people You rarely show your true emotions in front of you. You only show a worried expression when you are in a daze occasionally... You are very repressed towards yourself, but you are so gentle and careful towards the people around you. In this case, why can’t I bear to help you?”

"Do you really think I can do this?"

After saying these words, at this moment, she finally raised her head and looked at Charles sitting opposite her.He smiled brightly and spoke confidently:
"Well, I've said it before, I've always believed in you! But if you don't have me, you might not be able to do it - after all, 'owning your own territory' is one of the most difficult things in the world. It’s one of the things.”

When he said the last sentence, he smiled evilly like a child playing a prank, and Anji curled her lips helplessly at this moment, glanced at him sideways and said:
"Ambush me here, right?"

"There's no other way. I have to find a way to make you accept me, right? If my first confession is rejected, I will be left with a psychological shadow for the rest of my life, and I will never dare to confess again."

As he spoke, his expression became extremely aggrieved, as if these words really came from his heart.

But even though she knew he was just pretending, when she saw this guy shrinking his head like a kitten being scolded and showing a pitiful expression, Anji still couldn't help but make things difficult for him.

This must be because this guy's face is too good. It's definitely not because she is soft-hearted. It's absolutely impossible.

Repeating this idea in her mind, Angie looked away with disdain, but this time, Charles did not give up. Instead, he persisted in her sight, smiled flatteringly at her, and said in a coquettish tone:

"Suisui, Xiao Suisui~ Can you please stop being awkward? Let's have a nice chat."

"How did you guess my nickname based on my name! And don't call me 'Suisui' in a weird way using a foreign language plus Chinese!"

She couldn't help but raise her fist and hit the face with a bit of a mean smile. However, when her fist touched that face, she stopped her strength and was held by another warm and rough hand.

That's Charles' hand.He just smiled and gently held her fist, letting it rest on his face without any sign of fear.

Then, he tried his best to put on a solemn expression, but he still couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, so he could only look at her with a smile and said seriously:
"I like you, like you very much."

Unaccustomed to such an overly warm atmosphere, Anji could only turn away and whispered awkwardly: "So the one before was not considered a confession?"

"Of course not, that would be too informal." He replied without hesitation.

"Shouldn't we say something like 'let's be together' at this time?" She swallowed hard.

"Does this make you feel very stressed? I just want to express my feelings to you. As for whether you want to respond to me or not, that is your freedom, and I am not in a hurry to get the answer."

He smiled, watching the girl blush fiercely, and felt the soft hand he was holding relax completely, and he already had the answer in his heart.

"Then, I won't answer for now? Is that really okay?" Anji was still making the final mental struggle.

"Well, it's fine."

Decisively agreeing, he looked at the awkward girl who was deliberately hiding from his sight, and said seriously: "I have something I want to give you, and I hope you can accept it."

"what?"

Before Anji could react, she saw the other party let go of her hand and took out a silver ring from her pocket. (End of chapter)
