In fact, she hadn't reacted before because she had misunderstood. Now that she had reconsidered the concept of interfering in history, she would naturally understand...

"In that case, isn't it even more incredible that your consciousness could have followed Sakura to this era?"

"So, didn't I say that before? It's not that my consciousness followed Sakura through time and arrived at this timeline. My consciousness has never changed its [position]—it's that the timeline you are in has been adjusted by the "world" and arrived at the [position] of my consciousness. Otherwise, because of my existence, Sakura would not be able to interfere with past history."

"…………???"

After a moment of silence, Liliae tilted her head, her face full of question marks.

Isn't it really that hard to understand? That's why I really hate explaining this kind of thing to people!

It would be too much trouble to explain it in detail, so let's forget it.

"Speaking of which, did you know that you would have a daughter in the future?"

"I know. I've dreamt about it before, but I've never been able to dream about who I married and who I had children with."

Lilia shook her head, seemingly deciding to put the previous topic behind her.

"Of course, this is a good thing for me, because I don't want to predict even such things. Regardless of the predicted future, my future must be chosen by myself. I have always adhered to this philosophy. And rather than choosing the future after knowing it, it is better to choose my future without knowing anything, right?"

Liliae said this with a smile, looking at me again and asking:

"Do you really know my future lovely Alice well enough to ask such a question?"

"In the timeline that Sakura wants to go back to, I'm a school teacher, and your daughter is in my class right now."

“…I see. That’s how it is. So that’s how it is.”

After a moment of silence, Liliae slowly sat up straight, staring at me seriously, and said in a serious voice:

"My Alice will suffer in the future, will face loneliness, will... I can't change that future, because for some reason I won't be by her side at that time. But... you clearly have the power to change everything, why don't you change it?"

"........."

I really want to ask you from what position you are holding me accountable for this statement?

Although I do feel sorry for your daughter, why should I change her life before the story even begins? My official arrival is after the story begins, okay? It's totally in time to help her when we meet her! — But I'm not an idiot after all.

Almost in an instant, I understood the meaning of her words.

Liliae couldn't predict who she would have children with in the future. Normally, this was impossible, but...

Come to think of it, it would have been fine before, but after being tormented by Sakura and coming to this timeline, I have already met Liliae, a beautiful and intelligent woman - is it possible for me to let this woman go?

So, does she have the right to hold me accountable?

she has.

Because she is very smart.

First of all, she couldn't predict who the father of her future daughter would be.

Then, she couldn't predict who her future daughter's teacher would be.

Finally, she had no idea of my existence at all.

Anyone with a little common sense can figure it out.

So does she have the right to hold me accountable?

Well, she really does.

After all, even if you say that you know the future, the choice still has to be made by yourself, but the future is something that is created by a person's choice.

It is not the future that determines a person's past choices, but on the contrary, it is a person's past choices that determine future development.

Therefore, the future is predetermined from the beginning.

Therefore, the reason why I did not interfere with Alice's fate and let her develop according to the original plot must have been my own choice.

Liliae had the right to hold me accountable. After all, as she said, I had the power to change everything as long as I wanted to.

So, ask yourself, why didn’t I choose to change Alice’s fate?

"Because I don't want to erase the first image of her I saw."

The answer is so obvious.

Lilia was stunned, then smiled bitterly. "That's already a refutation, right? Because the Alice you see is the result of your current choice."

"Playing with time can sometimes turn into a spiral like this, so there's no point in telling me."

I raised my hand and snapped my fingers.

The next moment, Liliae disappeared from her seat, screamed, and fell into my arms.

I hugged her, lifted her chin, looked into her eyes, and said softly, "If I had the will, I could have changed everything from the beginning, but I didn't have that will at first. So everything is the natural arrangement of fate. Just accept it."

If I had first come into this era and met Liliae and Nadeshiko first, then the future development would definitely be drastically different. After all, I have never been the kind of person who would obediently follow the plot and let the world develop completely according to the plot.

But unfortunately, I came to this world in the first place just for Sakura, nothing else matters.

So... the fate of this world has inexplicably evolved into what it is now.

And now that it has come to this, based on my mood, the choice I will make is obvious.

I can't erase from the past the future I've already seen.

Liliae's face flushed, and she avoided my gaze uncomfortably. "...I understand, and I respect your choice. Anyway, no matter what, you won't let our Alice get hurt, right?"

“…I can’t guarantee that.”

The blush on Lilia's face instantly faded. She turned her gaze and glared at me fiercely. Her eyes met mine, her gaze as sharp as a knife: "Say it again?"

"Ahem, Alice, what kind of Alice is this? She's not someone who hasn't experienced any hardships, right? You don't want our Alice to become a canary, do you?"

I said with a little guilty conscience.

"I'm not the type of person who likes to keep children as pets, so I can only make sure that I don't let things get to the worst possible point."

Liliae's expression softened slightly, but she still accused, "So you're the type who enjoys treating children as a joke, right?"

"Isn't that a bit too much?"

"Magicians who are too powerful usually have twisted personalities, and you are obviously one of them."

"You are also a powerful magician."

"I'm the exception."

"Such words are not convincing."

"So what's your assessment...?"

"...Your personality is not twisted at all. You are the most perfect girl."

Faced with that threatening look, I had no choice but to compromise.

Liliae smiled with satisfaction.

This woman.

I still pinched Liliae's smooth chin with my right hand and gently pulled it forward. I wanted to regain some face as a man.

Liliae's eyes widened slightly, and then, as if unable to bear the close eye contact with me, she slowly closed her eyes.

So delicious.

Don’t ask me what makes it delicious, it’s just super delicious.

Suddenly, Liliae pressed my hand on her leg to hold it in place, opened her eyes and looked at me, her face flushed as she whispered, "Don't go too far~! I, I didn't allow you to do this..."

"Your tone is not convincing at all."

"Woo~"

Liliae couldn't refute it at all because it was difficult for her to resist.

Just by being hugged by the other person, her body had actually become as limp as a puddle of mud.

Her heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was going to jump out of her chest, and the happiness that filled her whole body made her want to just indulge in this warm embrace.

Although she tried her best to resist, Liliai knew very well that if the other party insisted, her resistance would be like a little white rabbit trying to struggle under the claws of a big bad wolf, which would be meaningless.

Reason made her resist.

But from an emotional point of view, she simply did not have the willpower to resist.

Therefore,

"Where is your own room?"

After being picked up like a princess and asked this question, Liliae could only tremble like a real little white rabbit, and then raised her hand and pointed under the other person's pressing gaze.

"over there…"

It was fine when they were walking in the corridor, but the moment she was carried into the room, Liliae closed her eyes tightly.

Make fists with both hands and hold them in front of your chest, and keep your legs closed and tight.

Even when she was gently placed on the soft bed, Liliae's stiff body could not become soft.

But the other party was very patient.

From the face to the neck, from the shoulders to the side of the chest, from the waist to the thighs, from the calves to the ankles, the massage, neither too light nor too heavy, gradually soothed Liliai's stiff body and also soothed her spirit.

A pair of shoes was gently taken off and placed neatly under the bed.

Then start from the feet, another round of massage.

Gradually, Liliai's stiff body really began to soften again.

The mind begins to relax.

No more tense hands and feet.

A pillow is gently placed under the waist.

Cardcaptor Sakura: Chapter 26 [Time]

When Liliai opened her eyes in the morning, she quietly looked at the person in front of her who had become the most important and special person to her in just one day.

I couldn't help but smile.

This unprecedented sense of fulfillment and happiness made her a little intoxicated.

In this cold-blooded and heartless family where magic is the only thing that matters, she has never even experienced family affection.

No, it can’t be said that I haven’t experienced family love, but... can that really be called family love?

Because she is very strong, her magic is very strong, and she has been strong since she was a child, so everyone in the family likes her, respects her, and flatters her - that's all.

Thinking of the things that her future daughter would encounter simply because she had no magic power, Liliae could only feel irony about such differential treatment.

But there was nothing Liliae could do.

Because everyone in the family is really good to her and likes her very much, she can't do anything to this family that treats her so well just because of something that might happen in the future but hasn't happened yet.

Therefore, even if she knew the future she didn't like, she couldn't choose to change it herself.

She could only try to find a way to make that future have a happy ending after it happened.

There's nothing she can do about it, since she was born into such a family.

Of course, compared to those in the family, the person in front of me may not be that good.

He likes me, but definitely not as much as I like him.

But...I like you.

Gently leaning her face forward, Liliae touched it with her lips.

Really, how can it be so charming?

Never mind, this is fine too.

If I can't be the person you like most, then I'll let you be the person I like most in my heart.

After that, I just need to work hard to make you like me as much as I like you.

Suddenly, Liliai's face turned red, and she felt the stirring in her waist and abdomen again.

"Are you awake? Hurry up and get up, or Nadeshiko and Sakura might come looking for you."

"You were the one who teased me first, and now you say this. Do you think this kind of willfulness is allowed?"
