Can I Quit the Group Now?

The most urgent task now is to figure out why the task is still not completed after chatting with Eight Hundred Bikuni.

Is Suzuka Gozen still not able to understand what is emotion?Or is Suzuka Gozen not acknowledging his own mother?

Seeing that Lux didn't say anything, Qianji didn't continue to ask more questions, she just said: "Really...Since you don't say anything, then I won't ask any more questions, but if you have any trouble, you can come to see I."

"...Um."

Nodding in response, Lux left the hall with little Orpheus, heading towards the direction where Suzuka Gozen was.

However, Suzuka Gozen is not in her own room now... The princess of the sea of ​​immortality, the sister of the current queen, Suzuka Gozen must have her own room and territory, but now she is no longer there, but in.. ...at the altar.

It's at the altar where the Haiyuan shellfish is placed.

Originally, the Umihara shell halberd was Suzuka Gozen's weapon, but Suzuka Gozen was not the queen, so the Unabara shell halberd should no longer be in charge of her, so she returned the Umihara shellfish to Chihime, and now the Umihara shellfish is Chihime weapon.

After a while, Lux and little Orpheus came to the altar, and as soon as they got to the altar, they saw a figure.

Sitting on the edge of the altar, looking into the distance, a figure drinking wine alone...

Chapter 540 Seven You Are My Friend Forever

Suzuka Gozen sat on the edge of the altar, in front of her was a bottomless abyss, and in the distance was the palace emitting a faint light, and her figure seemed a little lonely.

The altar of the Haiyuan shellfish was built near the palace. After all, it is an artifact of the sea of ​​immortality. Naturally, it cannot be placed too far away. It just so happens that this place is a good place, and there is this natural abyss as a barrier, so at the beginning The queen decided to settle the palace here.

And now that Suzuka Gozen came here, it was a matter of course.

But... this is the first time Lux saw Suzuka Gozen's back during the time he knew Suzuka Gozen.

Suzuka Gozen's personality is more pleasant to say, she is carefree and unrestrained, no matter what she faces, she can deal with it with her own personality, as if nothing can break her.

But now, Lux saw her fragile...or confused side.

Is it because I chatted with Eight Hundred Bikuni once?

Lux didn't know very well, but he brought Orpheus to her side anyway.

He didn't speak, just sat next to her.

"Lux?"

His arrival caught the attention of Suzuka Gozen, and there was a hint of surprise on his somewhat disappointed face, as if he was curious why he came.

She wanted to say something, but she didn't know how to say it. After thinking about it, she decided not to say anything.

She turned her head again, looked into the distance, and the clear wine flowed down her lips into her throat, and then swallowed.

She is a monster, drinking is of course, have you ever seen a monster who can't drink?

Ah, of course, except for little monsters.

However, in the past, she drank because she was happy, but now she drank because she didn't know what it was... She didn't quite understand her emotions at this moment.

Melancholy?Lost?Or regret, sad?

She didn't know... She thought that if she reconciled with Qianji and was with Qianji, she would understand what a relationship is and what a family is, but it turns out that it doesn't seem to be the case.

This indescribable feeling... Is it also family?

Suzuka Gozen drank bowl after bowl, and at the end of the drink, she gave up using bowls and directly poured down her throat with the wine cup.

She now seems to understand why so many human beings like to drink when they are unhappy. It turns out that wine can be drunk not only when they are happy, but also when they are sad.

"...do you want a drink?"

But while drinking, maybe because he was drunk, Suzuka Gozen suddenly handed the wine cup to Lux, thinking he wanted to invite him to drink together.

Little Orpheus leaned over the little head from the side, and sniffed lightly with his nose, as if he was a little curious about it, but Lux lightly pressed her little head.

Underage children are not allowed to drink alcohol.

What?You said she is older than Acacia?

Then he doesn't care, since he's called daddy, it's his daughter, and it's what daddy should do to look after his daughter.

Lux thought for a while, took the wine cup, raised his head and took a sip, it was good wine.

And the wine cup doesn't seem big, but Suzuka Gozen hasn't finished drinking it after drinking for so long, so the wine cup is probably not simple.

As for why you can drink in the sea, don't ask, it's the basic setting.

Seeing Lux drinking with his head up from the wine cup, Suzuka Gozen couldn't help laughing.

She patted Lux ​​on the shoulder, and said unexpectedly and happily: "I thought you couldn't drink..."

Lux didn't reply, just shook his head lightly, not knowing what it meant, then he handed the wine cup back.

The surroundings suddenly became a little silent, Lux still didn't say a word, little Orpheus didn't understand the atmosphere, just lay on Lux's lap, staring straight at the wine cup in Suzuka Gozen's hand, Suzuka Gozen, on the other hand, lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

It remained silent for a long, long time, until after a long time, there was a faint sound.

"A few days ago, I chatted with Eight Hundred Bikuni...I should be the last one to see her. She came to tell me her last words..."

"Honestly, I don't know her, I have no special affection for her, I don't know anything except that she is my mother."

"I don't have any memories of the past, and the tidal force told me about Qianji's affairs. I don't know anything about what happened in the Sea of ​​Eternal Life..."

"So I have no feelings for her. Even if I know that she is dead, even if I know that she has given her power to the eight hundred bhikkhuni, and let the eight hundred bhikkhuni come to me specially, I don't feel anything."

"It's just...I don't understand why she said sorry to me."

"She didn't feel sorry for me...she saved me, gave me life, she kept thinking about Qianji and me until the end, she shouldn't have said sorry to me...on the contrary, she should have said sorry , it should be me..."

"I don't understand... can't figure it out."

"I want to tell her this, I want to tell her that she doesn't owe me or us anything."

"But...my words have not reached her ears."

"..."

A child wants to support but does not wait for a kiss...

Even though it was slightly inappropriate, Lux thought of it for the first time.

It's not that Suzuka Gozen doesn't care about her mother, if she doesn't care, she doesn't have to deliberately take the eight hundred bhikkhuni to a place where no one is around, and she doesn't have to come here alone to drink wine alone.

The connection of blood, and their concern until death, made Suzuka Gozen's heart throbbing.

She wanted to express her concern and thoughts, but just like she said... the words between her and Qianji could no longer reach the Queen's ears...

"I can't comfort people, I can't say words that make you laugh through your tears, but I can sit here. Until you feel recovered."

You said that you don't understand emotions, but now you have completely had the emotions that all living things should have.

You said that you don't move your family, but now you already have a family that you can sink yourself into.

Your trip this time has reached perfection.

You have found the important thing you longed for.

So, even now... no, maybe because it's now, you should be smiling all the more.

"...Can't you say something comforting... Lux, you and I are somewhat alike, but also somewhat different."

"But...thank you."

"This is the best trip I've taken in 500 years."

"Thank you my friend."

Chapter 540 No matter when, the sea of ​​eternal life is your home

【Ding!The wish of the original group member, the master of the sea country, has been fulfilled. Congratulations to the group member, the prince of the empire, for completing the task! 】

[Please invite the original group member Haiguo Lord to join the group as soon as possible! 】

As a matter of course, the system prompt sounded at this moment.

In fact, Suzuka Gozen already knew what is called affection and what is called family, but she had never experienced these before, and she couldn't express exactly what she thought in her heart, that is to say, she needed someone to give her a gentle push.

Help her open the door that has been unable to be opened for a long time...

In the original world line, Tamura Samurai helped Suzuka Gozen successfully understand what is called family and how family members should live together through five years of teaching and his own life, but now, Tamura Samurai is replaced by Lux.

Under Lux's last push, Suzuka Gozen finally stepped into the world she wanted to touch.

Even though he is still immature and immature, at least he has taken the most difficult first step.

Lux took a breath lightly, he looked at Suzuka Gozen who was still a little sad, thought about it carefully, and finally he didn't choose to hand her the invitation card at this time.

At this time, let her be quiet...

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, another five days passed by.

During these five days, Suzuka Gozen finally sorted out his emotions, and was no longer immersed in the sadness of his mother's death.

She has already made up her mind.

What mother wants is for her and Qianji to live a good life, to make them happy, and not to stagnate because of a little thing.

Whether it's for herself or for her mother, she needs to cheer up and start her own life.

So, Suzuka Gozen, who stayed in the Sea of ​​Eternal Life for more than a month, also bid farewell to Chihime.

"Are you leaving too?"

When her sister said that she was going to leave the Sea of ​​Eternal Life to go to other places, Qian Ji frowned involuntarily.

Now that the Sea of ​​Eternal Life is being rebuilt, she is very busy every day. Although it has calmed down in the past two days, there are still many things that need to be controlled by her. Moreover, she wants to build the Sea of ​​Eternal Life together with Suzuka Gozen.

As sisters, but also as the common queen of the sea of ​​immortality.

But she didn't expect that Suzuka Gozen still planned to leave...

At the very beginning, Suzuka Gozen expressed that he would not stay in the Sea of ​​Eternal Life, but that was before. After so many experiences, the sisters finally reconciled. Chihime thought that Suzuka Gozen would stay in the Sea of ​​Eternal Life. It's here, but I didn't expect to come here at this time.

Mother has left, so has the Eight Hundred Bhikkuni, and you, the younger sister, are leaving too?

Are you really going to give the Sea of ​​Eternal Life to me alone?

"The Sea of ​​Eternal Life...is my home, but I grew up in the sea. Compared to the Sea of ​​Eternal Life, I still prefer life on the other side of the sea, and I want to go to a little more other places... .I want to see the world and learn more about the world."

"The Sea of ​​Eternal Life is entrusted to you...I am very relieved."
