Jobless Reincarnation: The King with a Mental Problem

Chapter 205 The Witch Dropped a Little Pearl

[After a short period of time]

[Luo Qixi's Perspective]

To be honest...

It really feels a bit unreal...

This witch seems to have done absolutely nothing here, just traveled around with Little Fu...

Just like following behind Little Franz now...

For some unknown reason, the crystal turned into a liquid in no time.

After carefully giving Mrs. Senis a simple magical wash, Little Frye leaned close to listen to her breathing...

After listening for a while, a relieved expression finally appeared on his face, and we walked together to the room he had tidied up earlier.

Inside the room, a sleeping bag was laid out on the stone bed that Little F had made, and he sat on it with Mrs. Senis in his arms.

The lampstand emitted a faint light, illuminating them...

Mrs. Senis didn't wake up immediately, but she should be alright. Little F held Mrs. Senis in his arms, as if he were holding something he had finally found and had been waiting for for a long time.

It's so quiet around here...

Only the sound of our breathing...

They don't speak, nor do they need to speak.

I was just looking around, and suddenly I felt like there was no place for me to stand here anymore...

The scene is actually a bit strange.

Mrs. Senis was the mother, and he was the child.

But now, Xiao Fu is acting like a parent.

He let Senis lean against him and patted her gently, like coaxing a child who wasn't crying or making a fuss, but just wouldn't open her eyes.

When he looked down at her, his expression was so gentle; I had never seen him like that before.

His smile always has a mischievous glint in it.

But he was so quiet when he looked at Mrs. Senis...

It's like putting your whole body into that little bit of body heat.

I suddenly wondered, if I were also sealed inside such a crystal, would he hold me like this?

It's like when you're with me, you don't have to think about anything else...

He seems to only act this way towards people he truly can't let go of...

Ugh......

I suddenly...

I feel a little upset...

It's not jealousy...

It's really not...

It should be shame...

Even just standing here feels like I'm borrowing his strength...

"Hmm...?"

Little Fur let out a long sigh, then looked over...

What is it?

Do I look strange?

I don't think so.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm sorry... I know this isn't the labyrinth adventure you were hoping for... but... no, it's nothing."

Am I that obviously like that?

Little Fufu seemed to want to say something, but then stopped...

I guess I'm trying to explain something.

He's always like this...

Only half the story is told...

But somehow I can tell what he's thinking, just like he knows what I'm thinking...

He probably meant that even if he had to do it all over again, he would probably do the same thing...

After all, Lady Senis's safety is the most important thing...

Well...

That's the correct way.

This is the real him.

He loves Mrs. Senis; after all, she's his mother. The fact that he can spare time to accommodate me, protect me, and indulge my whims is already...

It would be abnormal if he wasted too much energy on me...

yes......

That's actually abnormal...

He's actually...very gentle...

Moreover, it also helps to distinguish between primary and secondary tasks...

He's the kind of person you can rely on in crucial moments...

He cares about my emotions, my feelings, and whether my actions will upset me.

But the more this is the case, the less I can say I'm unhappy.

Because I know he did nothing wrong.

But I still can't help thinking about it.

I've been looking forward to this maze for so long.

Thinking about those maps I didn't finish drawing.

I was thinking about the dry food and spare boots I bought.

I've rehearsed this a hundred times in my head: [You're in charge of clearing the way, and I'll be in charge of making the judgments].

They all seem like jokes now.

No, it's not even a joke.

After all, jokes can make people laugh.

Ugh......

Be more mature, Luo Qixi!

nothing!

There will be other opportunities in the future!

After readjusting my mindset, I was finally able to look at him as if nothing had happened, just like before.

"Yes, this dungeon adventure is completely different from what this witch imagined..."

"Feel sorry......"

"Um......"

"Um......."

hehe......

A masculine, tall man with a youthful expression—his destined love...

We met deep within a maze, he saved my life, and then we became dependent on each other, developing feelings for one another...

It really doesn't match up at all...

The current Little Franz isn't very tall, and he's always quite immature. He's only reliable when it really matters, completely opposite to the Prince Charming I first imagined...

But even if this whole thing is a complete mess...

Even if his standards and mine are completely different...

I still like him...

......

only......

Realizing this made me even sadder...

I really want to cry...

The gap between us is too big...

Little Frey managed to handle everything by himself. If I hadn't been with Trevor, he probably would have already rescued Mrs. Senis.

When I'm around him, it seems like all I do is distract him and hold him back...

This is not what I want...

He will definitely do even more amazing things in the future...

Am I supposed to keep following him around and holding him back?

......

[Trevor's Perspective]

I knew it would turn out like this...

So I never planned to let Luo Qixi come along...

Just before, I actually wanted the witch to show off more...

but.....

Senis was right at my feet; just thinking about that made me lose all interest in joking.

Moreover, the witch really couldn't be of much help.

Her original strength probably stopped at the second or third level, right?

She was trapped on which floor for several months, right?

While she might be able to become even more powerful now, the magic-immune Hydra is beyond her capabilities...

Since it will ultimately be up to me to take action anyway, and I'll have to reveal my true abilities sooner or later, I've decided not to bother hiding my strength...

only......

What a mess...

I know perfectly well that she's actually really looking forward to this maze adventure...

But if we did it again...

I have no intention of indulging her or wasting my time with her...

After all, Senis was right in front of them...

If I have more free time later, I can play maze games with her more often to make up for it...

actually......

I quite enjoy playing dungeon crawling games, like Bloodborne's Grail Dungeon.

I've wasted most of my time there...

But... the witch's expression...

You look so sad...
