The civilization before the collapse, heroes and heroes are reborn with me

Blanca walked into Grace's studio, put the pastries on the table beside her, and felt a headache watching her daughter staring at the unfinished painting again. Grace is now 8 years old and is about to have her 9th birthday, and her talent for painting has been revealed at a very young age. From an adult's perspective, Blanca believes that Grace's paintings are definitely beyond the level of a child of this age.

Now, in addition to going to school, Grayshure spends her free time painting. She used to go looking for Feng, but ever since Feng took Astaroth back and recognized her as her sister, the time they spend together has decreased a lot. Blanca actually has a feeling that Grayshure herself is in a contradictory state of wanting to look for Feng but not wanting to.

As for Feng, he can indeed take care of children, but with his emotional intelligence that still makes him unable to sort out the emotional connections between himself and the people around him, don't expect him to be able to figure out anything.

Grayshu's grades in school are pretty good, but this child...even when Feng and her had the best relationship, she rarely spoke on her own initiative, and her interactions with other children in school...gave people the feeling that they were not in the same dimension.

There is no problem with normal communication, but when it comes to whether or not you have friends, the situation becomes complicated.

Grace is not keen on making friends. Compared with other lively children of her age, she is like an outlier. It seems that she can communicate with anyone, but she will not take the initiative to communicate with anyone. She doesn't care whether anyone talks to her or not.

This troubled Blanca and Hen, and sometimes they wondered if Feng had led Grayshu astray. After all, Feng didn't like to actively communicate with other people in the Fire Moth. But in terms of friends, Feng did have quite a few friends. When he was with Kevin and the others, Feng was also very talkative. Once, Hen even witnessed Feng teasing Kevin with a sharp tongue. He just didn't like to communicate with other people he wasn't familiar with.

Not to mention that every time Grayshu was with Feng, either Kevin would be there, or Alicia and Lilith would be there.

Then there is Mobius. Mobius disdains to communicate with other people, and most people don't have the courage to communicate with Mobius. But as long as Grayshu is in Mobius' laboratory, Mobius will pay attention to his attitude.

This made Blanca and Hen wonder if Grace had early symptoms of autism. However, the main communication barrier of autism did not exist in Grace. Grace's thinking and language expression ability were normal from beginning to end, and she was just not very enthusiastic in social aspects.

If a child likes quietness, then it is not impossible. The key is that Grace is a little too quiet...

Hen felt that Grace needed to make friends, at least friends of the same age or with a similar age difference. However, Grace's current situation was that there were almost no peers around her who could be considered friends.

I don’t know if Lilith’s sister Jaina counts... Jaina gets along well with everyone, just like her sister. It was Feng who introduced her to Greyshure.

As for Sakura's sister Ling, Graysh did have a good relationship with her, but...

Any parent would worry that their child can’t make friends or has too few friends, right?

At least Ling and Jaina are both reliable... Hen now wants to go find Feng to see if he can make Astaroth and Greyshus friends. Greyshus's mentality is clear to parents. Isn't it just that the big brother next door who likes to get along with others is snatched away by another sister who came out of nowhere, and then he's having a quarrel with her?

Speaking of which, Blanca was actually very strange. Feng seemed to care too much about Astaroth, as if he had known Astaroth a long time ago. Astaroth's experience before joining the Fire Moths was indeed sad, but there were children with similar experiences. Feng's attitude towards those children was similar to his attitude towards other children. At that time, the children Feng cared about were basically only Ling, Jaina and Greyshu, and among them Greyshu was the one he spent the most time with.

And Astaroth...

Not to mention putting herself in Grayshu's perspective, even from an adult's perspective, Blanca wondered if Astaroth had cast some strange magic on Feng, a junior who was extremely hypocritical in some ways. What was even stranger was that including Alicia, Kevin, and even Mebius, they all seemed to think there was nothing wrong.

Blanca still remembers that when she was holding Gresh's hand and talking to Mebius about Astaroth, she jokingly said that Feng really cared too much about Astaroth, and Mebius said lightly that after all, he regarded Astaroth as his sister.

I didn't care at all why Feng treated Astaroth as her own sister.

Blanca later went to investigate secretly on her own. It can only be said that it is almost impossible for Astaroth and Feng to have any intersection in the past. The only explanation... is that Feng just happened to fall in love with them?

Banishing those random thoughts from her mind, Blanca sighed softly and turned her gaze to the unfinished painting. In this painting, Greteau only drew an outline of dawn on the edge, leaving a large blank in the middle. In the corner, a shadow seemed to be spreading, and in the shadow there seemed to be a vague foot that looked like a knight's armor. No matter how many times she looked at it, Blanca felt that this painting seemed a little strange.

Is it a knight who walks into darkness with the dawn on his back? But it seems that this is not what Gresh wants to draw.

This painting was started by Gracie a year ago. She would always paint a few and then stop as if she had no inspiration, and then start painting something else.

However, Grayshu had painted quite a few strange paintings, but this one took too long to paint, which made Blanca pay more attention to it. For example, after Grayshu's birthday last year, she painted a picture of herself and Yuga flying in the sky. After seeing the picture, Blanca had a complicated expression, because the Yuga painted by Grayshu was as if she had had close and direct contact with Yuga, and some details were handled so vividly.

Could it be that Feng ran into Yuga when he took Grayshue out to play on her birthday?

How is that possible? Yuga is under the close surveillance of the Fire Moths 24 hours a day, and is basically roaming around between the Earth and the Moon. How could he possibly come into contact with Grayshu?

So in the end, Hen could only conclude that the scene where Yuga dismantled the moon base and then put it back together was remembered by Grayshure.

He probably really couldn't imagine that what Grayshue painted was actually real, and there was another painting in Yuga's place.

As for Grayshu, she has actually been thinking about some issues that she has never thought about before.

After all... she was a reborn person, going to school again, dealing with classmates who she would never have any contact with in the future. In addition, she had been with Zhu Yufeng for too long, and was influenced by some of his daily behaviors. Besides, she was not the type who liked to actively contact people... which directly led to her feeling that she had no friends other than Ling and Jaina who she needed to make close friends with.

Because I will never see them again.

During the Ninth Herrscher incident, Grayshuse was forced to undergo a fusion warrior surgery to save her life. After the surgery was successful, due to the special nature of her abilities, she almost never interacted with outsiders. Even her former classmates didn't leave any impression on her.

In terms of mental age, Gracie would have turned 13 after the final battle, and it has been nearly five years since she was reborn.

But his physical age is still 8 years old.

Although other people have noticed this and will appropriately guide Grace to do things that are not too childish, but... maybe in their eyes, Grace has always been that little child.

Grace's mood now is indeed very conflicted. She has actually understood the concept of "death" a long time ago. She also knows where Zhu Yufeng went at that time, and the problems that her parents will face in the near future.

They said that sister Destobia became a hero, so she left. They said that mom and dad became heroes, and then they left too. Brother Yufeng said that sister Astaroth became a hero, so she left too. In the end, the people who came back said that he became a hero and went to where everyone else was.

The masked brother said he died, leaving everyone behind and dying alone.

Before, Kosmo was always hesitant, and Graysmith had actually seen through it a long time ago. Kosmo was afraid that Sister Desdobia would leave again. But this time, Kosmo did rescue Sister Desdobia together with Brother Yufeng and the others.

Therefore, Grayshu will not be confused about the future, because she believes that Brother Yufeng can do it, because Brother Yufeng once promised her that. In the special space isolated by Honkai energy on Yuga's back, she asked Brother Yufeng if her parents would leave this time. Brother Yufeng told her very affirmatively that he would never let this happen.

"Then Brother Yufeng, will you leave?"

Only when this question was asked, the only answer to her was silence.

Only at that time could she feel the hesitation and helplessness coming from Brother Yufeng. He could confidently believe that he could save his parents, but he could not confidently believe that he could save himself.

The time called the end will eventually come. Although she did not participate in the battle of the end, she felt clearly the despair before and after that battle.

She looked at the unfinished painting in front of her, feeling a little confused, not knowing how to continue. She had painted this painting once in her previous life, and it was the only painting she clearly didn't like after she finished it, and she very clearly didn't want to give it to the person it was originally intended for.

In addition, another big problem that has been bothering her recently comes from Astaroth.

Yes, she was indeed jealous of Sister Astaroth.

She had known that this day would come, because she knew very well what Sister Astaroth meant to Brother Yufeng, and she also knew that Brother Yufeng really cared about Sister Astaroth. She should have been prepared for this day a long time ago. All her concern before this was based on the premise that Sister Astaroth had not returned to the Fire Moth.

After all... before, Brother Yufeng's focus was more on Astaroth...

It's just returning to the previous state...

But she didn't like it.

Even though she herself felt that all this should belong to Sister Astaroth, and even though she didn't hate Sister Astaroth, Sister Astaroth was her best friend before. They would draw and read together...

but……

She just... didn't want to let Brother Yufeng go.

Even in the previous life, I was the first one to know Brother Yufeng...

She still remembers her birthday last year. Brother Yufeng came to pick her up early in the morning and said he would take her out to play before her parents prepared for the birthday party in the evening. Then he told her mysteriously on the way that he was taking her to a mysterious place.

Then, she saw Yuga.

Brother Yufeng put in a lot of effort and asked sisters Mostima and Wilvi to prepare for a long time. I heard that there were many other people helping in order to cover up Yuga's appearance this time.

All to fulfill her wish of playing with Yuga.

After a while, Sister Astaroth returned to the Fire Moth, and Brother Yufeng spent more time on Sister Astaroth, buying her new clothes and various storybooks, as if he wanted to give her everything she wanted.

In fact, Grayshu had always seen it very clearly, and she knew very well in her heart that this was the way Brother Yufeng and Sister Astaroth got along with each other. It had been like this since the last life. Sister Astaroth was locked up in the deepest place and not allowed to go out, but as long as she wanted, Brother Yufeng would find a way to take her out.

She also knew that this had little to do with the way Brother Yufeng handled the relationship between him and her. Even if Sister Astralote returned to the Fire Moth, Brother Yufeng would still take her out to play on weekends if she was willing, but Sister Astralote would always be there.

In fact, Lilith and Alicia had both reminded Zhu Yufeng about this, and Zhu Yufeng did not favor one over the other. At most, he felt that he owed Astaroth because he had picked her up too late. However, when it came to the two children, he would fulfill all their wishes. It was not the case that both Grace and Astaroth liked the same doll, but there was only one doll and he gave the doll to Astaroth. In this case, he would confiscate the doll immediately and then go to Rofko to make two copies to make sure that both were identical before giving them to the two children.

He would confiscate the original doll himself, at least he felt that this way no one would be wronged.

And that time... actually, Grayshuse was trying to throw a tantrum. The first person who took a fancy to the doll was only Astaroth, and Grayshuse was just testing Zhu Yufeng's attitude.

Therefore, when she finally got the doll, Gracie's mood was quite complicated.

So after that, Grace took the initiative to reduce the time she spent visiting Zhu Yufeng on weekends. She felt that Astaroth and Zhu Yufeng should have more time to spend together, because originally everything belonged to Astaroth, and she actually hadn't figured out how to face Astaroth, just like Alicia hadn't figured out how to face Lilith.

But on the other hand, she was hoping that Zhu Yufeng would take the initiative to take her out to play. As a result, after Zhu Yufeng asked several times and was told that he didn't want to go out to play (mainly because he hadn't figured out how to get along with Astaroth)... he really never asked again.

So the quarrel has come to the present.

"Do you need to take a break, Grace?" Blanca asked.

Grayshut nodded gently. Sister Alicia had gone to confront Sister Lilith directly, so she couldn't continue like this. After all... no matter how awkward the quarrel was, she would have to face it in the end.

There is no chance of getting full attendance this month. There is definitely no chance of getting full attendance next month because it is an exam month.

Why do I have to take a car for more than ten kilometers to go to the hospital for internship today? When I returned to the dormitory, my mind was empty and I didn’t want to think about anything...

There is expected to be a Lilith spin-off this month, and it looks like Yanli should be able to pass it, maybe?

Chapter 242: Ai Lishiya: I almost forgot this is a piece of shit

"The situation... is like this... As Grayshu's father, seeing Grayshu's recent condition really makes me worried, but I can't find a suitable solution... I can only ask you to come up with a solution together." Hen said helplessly.

"Because little Grayxiu really thinks of Feng as her brother, and now Feng suddenly has a younger sister, so little Grayxiu is a little unbalanced?" Alicia thought for a moment and said, "However, Lilith and I have reminded Feng of this matter, and Feng has always paid attention to this when she took them out to play before... It should be the child's exclusive mentality. Even if Feng doesn't favor anyone, little Grayxiu may not want to share the time with Feng with others."

Although her reasons were different, she didn't really want to share the time she spent with Feng with others, and Astaroth and Grayshu were indeed quite similar to herself and Lilith in a sense...

"Yeah, the possessive mentality of a child..." Hen said with a wry smile, "Come to think of it, I've always wanted to know why Feng had hardly seen Astaroth before, but... you guys don't seem to be surprised by Feng's attitude towards Astaroth?"

He was as confused as Blanca, why did everyone else take this for granted?

"Sometimes fate doesn't need a reason, right?" Lilith shrugged and said, "If I remember correctly, when Alicia saw Feng for the first time, she was different from the others, right? Feng... was similar."

Alicia glanced at Lilith. It was obvious that what she was talking about was what happened when she was just reborn. At that time, she didn’t think so much. She just wanted to start over with Feng... Moreover, Lilith would actually speak for her?

Well, given Lilith's mentality, this is indeed what Lilith would say.

Hen nodded thoughtfully. Indeed, he had almost forgotten about this. This was a major dereliction of duty for him as the Archbishop of the Feng Ai Party. It was actually the main person of the opposing CP who came out to remind him. After Alicia rescued Feng from the ruins, looking back from the current perspective, it was really love at first sight, and Feng originally joined the Fire Chaser Moth to chase Alicia...

Well, he needs to reflect...and no wonder Alicia can't do anything to Lilith, Lilith's mentality is really invincible in a sense.

Ahem, the topic has gone off track. The most urgent priority is to deal with little Grayxiu’s matter.

"Also, Feng can be said to be very clear about feelings, but not that clear at the same time." Lilith said in a sarcastic tone, "He probably also realized that little Grayshu was being upset, but he probably thought that little Grayshu would get used to it over time, so he didn't care too much. After all, for him, he just had to be fair to both sides, and he might not think that much because he was a child."

What's more, he may have to spend more time thinking about his daily interactions with us.

Lilith glanced at Alicia.

Compared to his previous life, when his straightforwardness could make people suffer from myocardial infarction, Zhu Yufeng in this life is much better. In most cases, his "straightforwardness" behavior seems more like he did it on purpose. After all, he is essentially a dark and venomous guy... It is better to say that when he was the captain of the Fallen Angel Squad in his previous life, he occasionally showed this kind of character, but because of the side effects of the Chimera Project and some other reasons, this character was almost buried.

"So... will he think that little Grayshue hates him?" Hen recalled that when he took Grayshue to wait with Zhu Yufeng outside the operating room yesterday, Zhu Yufeng took the initiative to find picture books and some painting tools. These were things he would do when he played with Grayshue in the past, but Grayshue behaved quite awkwardly...

With Feng's emotional intelligence...he wouldn't really think that little Grayshu hates him, right?

Think about it this way. Feng came to see little Grayxiu several times on the weekends some time ago. Every time, little Grayxiu said that she didn't want to go out and played and refused. At that time, her daughter's eyes clearly revealed that she really wanted to go out, but... neither herself nor Blanca could persuade little Grayxiu to go out.

Feng never came again after that... He couldn't really think so, did he?

Feng's personality... is indeed the type that if you take the initiative to distance yourself from him, he won't take the initiative to approach you again...

It's over. I feel more and more that the relationship between my daughter and Feng has reached a dead end... Speaking of which, that kind of tsundere behavior that is exactly the same as Dr. Mobius... Little Grayshu really learned it from Dr. Mobius, right? !

Seeing that Hen's expression became a little indescribable, Alicia roughly guessed what he was thinking and said, "Don't worry, Feng will never think that way... Even though he is now Astaroth's brother, his attitude towards Gresh is still the same. As long as little Gresh wants to play with him, he is ready to do so anytime."

"He's just used to following people's advice." Lilith spread her hands and added, "He's more likely to think that if little Grayshu doesn't want to go out to play, then he should respect her idea and not bother her for the time being. After all, think about it, he's already gone to look for little Grayshu several times, and little Grayshu has said she doesn't want to go out to play, so it would be impolite for him to bother her any more, so he should be waiting for the time when little Grayshu is willing to go out to play."

"This... is indeed what Feng would do..." Hen looked at Lilith strangely, then at Alicia. For some reason, he suddenly had a feeling... that these two were sisters... They were always in harmony with each other, and usually, it was almost impossible to tell that they were rivals in love. This tendency only appeared when Feng appeared.

So, this guy Feng is indeed the root of all evil, right?

"Come to think of it, Grace is almost 9 years old now, right?" Lilith suddenly mentioned something that seemed to have nothing to do with the current topic.

"Yeah, she doesn't interact with her classmates, and she's not very willing to play with them." Hen said with a headache, "If it weren't for Ling and Jaina playing with her, Blanca and I would probably be more anxious than we are now. Oh, by the way, speaking of this, since Astaroth came to the Fire Moth, Gresh hasn't played with Astaroth much, right? I was thinking, can we let them be friends or something? In this way, the current problem should be solved, right?"

Is it possible that they were originally very good friends? Little Grace's current temper was caused by this method, but it was probably impossible to solve it...

Alicia wanted to say this, but in the end, she ended up saying, "We'll give it a try, but we still have to ask you to find a way to get little Gray out to play."

"We'll find a way." Hen sighed softly and looked towards Zhu Yufeng's room. Feng really cared about Astaroth. He had agreed to wait for her after the operation and he really insisted on waiting... With such a brother, it was more or less conceivable why little Grey was so angry and didn't want to let her go out...

After Hen left, Alicia looked at Lilith, who had a thoughtful expression, and said, "Actually, to solve the problem, we still have to find a way to untie little Gray's knot, right?"

Lilith looked up at Alicia and said jokingly, "In this regard, I think you probably have a wealth of experience to pass on to Grayshu. After all, when I hadn't returned to the Fire Moth, you should have had similar ideas to Grayshu, right?"

Alicia: "..."

Although she felt something was wrong, she also felt that there was nothing wrong... Before Lilith returned to the Fire Moth, she was also quite resistant to other people mentioning Lilith, especially Kevin, who never learned his lesson after beating her many times. At one point, she almost developed PTSD about the name Lilith...

Later, she figured it out. It was useless to resist anymore. Lilith meant a lot to Feng. She would definitely come back. It was just a matter of time. And blindly avoiding her would not solve the problem. After thinking about it, she felt more open-minded. She also knew that if she couldn't face Lilith calmly, her relationship with Feng would hardly make any progress. She would always hesitate because of Lilith.

Before Lilith returned to the Fire Moth, she had always wondered if her feelings for Feng could compare to Lilith's. Later, after talking with Feng, she finally understood and let it go. There was no need to compare. Did she need other people's recognition of her love for Feng? Did she need to hesitate about this?

No need.
