I was raised in the simulator, and I’m really not a bad woman in Ark!

As for Tracy, he only needs to do his own thing, then sit aside and watch the show, and when necessary, give Theresa "blessings from a brother".

Chapter 144 Arturo: I have a bad feeling

"Ah-"

"Hmm, that's weird, why did I suddenly sneeze? Is someone missing me?"

Not knowing that he had been targeted by various forces, Icarus sat in the back seat of the SUV, rubbed his itchy nose, sneezed cutely like Arturo before, and subconsciously muttered to himself.

But logically speaking, Ekalos felt that no one would miss him, after all, both Arturo and Luciana were by his side.

Marcello was a possibility, but not very likely, and Federico was even less likely. Compared to silently missing her in Lateran, Ekalos felt that Little Vanilla Ice Cream was more likely to get the Guardian Gun through strange means and then come to her through strange legal channels and reasons.

Therefore, I feel like someone is staring at me at this moment.

Ikaros felt doubt and confusion from the bottom of his heart.

Well, that’s all though.

Next to Icarus, he heard Icarus sneezing and mumbling. Now it was Arturo's turn to care about his childhood sweetheart's health.

"Are you okay, Ikaros? Did you catch a cold?"

As he said this, Arturo tried to take off the coat he was wearing, obviously wanting to put it on Ekalos.

But this time, Ekalos rejected Arturo's kindness, "I'm fine, I guess I'm just being talked about."

"Is that so... Okay then, but if you feel uncomfortable again, Ekalos, you must tell me, and don't try to bear it alone." Arturo, who was rejected, calmly put on the coat she wanted to take off. Although she felt a little regretful, since Ekalos was fine, Arturo would definitely not be in a bad mood.

"Well, thank you for your concern, Arturo, I'm very happy."

Ekalos could also see that Arturo cared about him, so he smiled cutely and gently, which immediately made Arturo's slightly regretful mood much better.

After all, even though he failed to make Ikaros wear his coat and have his scent on him.

But seeing Icarus smile was a great reward for Arturo.

So Arturo also gave Icarus an equally beautiful smile in response to his childhood sweetheart's smile.

click-

As the two Sakotas, one black and one white, looked at each other and smiled, a flash of light flashed by in the next moment, and the shutter of the camera was pressed, recording this beautiful scene forever.

Ekalos and Arturo subconsciously looked towards the front seat where the camera sound came from, and saw W, with half of his face hidden behind the camera, lying on the passenger seat holding a small camera facing the rear compartment.

"Hey~, eggplant~"

Realizing that his secret photography had been discovered, Little W quietly put away the camera under the gaze of the two women, and then smiled shyly, obviously trying to get away with it.

This caused Luciana, who was driving seriously at the side, to laugh after hearing the noise. She then stabilized the speed of the SUV, obviously wanting to let the good show on the SUV to end.

It adds some fun to the journey which is destined to be boring.

As for the harmony on the off-road vehicle and W's safety...

Luciana, who wanted to have some fun, said that as long as the car didn't blow up and W wasn't thrown out of the car, anything would be fine.

She also believed that given the personalities of her two precious daughters, they would definitely not be overly aggressive about such matters.

Although... Little W is much braver than Luciana imagined.

You know, even as a mother, she usually has to be careful and sneaky when collecting the CGs that her daughters posted together. Who knew that W just received a camera from her and was allowed to do this and couldn't wait to do it.

Maybe this is what they call a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger.

And as the object of secret photography by Xiao W.

To be honest, neither Arturo nor Ekalos really care about this kind of behavior.

Due to the former's own charm and the fact that he is a semi-public figure, Arturo does not mind others recording his image with a camera as long as it is not a malicious sneak shot.

The latter just doesn't care about these things at all. For Ekalos, as long as it doesn't involve the people she cares about, she never cares.

At most, there are some issues related to world outlook, outlook on life and values ​​that are worthy of Ekaros's attention.

Regarding other matters and issues, Ekalos would at most pretend. Sometimes, if Arturo and others were not around, he might not even pretend.

So in fact, I was concerned about the fact that my smile was secretly photographed by Xiao W.

Both women don't care.

But...when things involve each other, the nature of the problem becomes different.

"W——" A long, cold sound came out of Ikaros' mouth. The hollow voice without any emotion seemed to come from the underworld and caused W, who was originally laughing awkwardly, to stop breathing for a moment. His head also shrank subconsciously, like a child who was afraid of being scolded.

"I don't think you are that kind of kid. Give me the camera and don't do such things again."

But Ikaros will not be deceived by W's pitiful appearance. She possesses some of the power of the Demon King, which is enough to see into the emotions of the Sarkaz.

Although she would not do this on weekdays, she subconsciously sensed a sense of luck in W's heart.

Ekalos said that W must not be indulged at all, otherwise, given this girl's personality, she might do it even more severely in the future.

After all, taking a secret photo is nothing.

Sitting next to Icarus, although Arturo didn't say much, her eyes showed her support for Icarus.

Therefore, facing the pressure from the two parties, although he was a little reluctant, W still reluctantly handed over the "new toy" in his hand to Ekalos.

There was no way. Compared to losing this plastic iron box that could record precious pictures and then be appreciated, W was now more afraid that Ikaros, who gave him a name, would hate him because of it.

"I'm sorry...I won't do that again."

Admit your mistakes firmly and repent.

This is the inner attitude of W, who now has his head down and looks depressed.

"Well, I believe you are a good kid." Icarus could see W's sincerity. As a person who had lived two lives, she would not embarrass W when Arturo did not show any dissatisfaction.

Therefore, after taking the camera from W, Icarus simply deleted the photos that W had just taken secretly and returned the camera to W.

After all, this was a gift from Luciana's mother to W, and Ikaros had no right to ask.

"Thank you..." Seeing that Ikaros had relaxed a lot from his coldness and even showed a faint smile, W's heart, which had been in his throat, finally relaxed. He was a little cautious and hesitant, not knowing whether he should take the camera.

After seeing this scene, Ekalos couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

There was no way. She could see the luck in W's heart, but she could also see the uneasiness, anxiety, and hesitation in W's heart.

He could even unconsciously empathize with some emotions due to the racial characteristics of the Sakota. Therefore, when he thought about W's experience and the way they first met, it was not surprising that Ekaros would feel some sympathy and heartache.

therefore.

When W was hesitating whether to take back the camera.

Ikaros made the choice for her for the first and last time.

“I’m only telling you this once, W, if this is something important to you, then never hesitate when choosing it.

Otherwise you will regret it when you lose the opportunity, and regret is often the most useless emotion on earth."

Ikaros forcefully stuffed the small camera into W's hand, and inevitably his fingertips came into contact with W's hand.

Feeling a slight cold touch, W was stunned for a moment, and his gaze turned from Ikaros to his hand where the small camera was stuffed.

W was a little stunned, not because she was at a loss for Ekalos' sudden behavior, nor because she was shy about Ekalos' physical contact with her.

She just listened to what Ikaros said, watched what she did, and felt that calm and sincere look.

W felt a sudden lump in his nose. After all, who in Kazdel would save your name for no reason and then teach you the truth without having any other thoughts about you?

Perhaps some parents who love their children deeply will.

But W has never seen his parents since he was old enough to understand.

Therefore, W has only seen one person who treats her so well, and that is Ikaros in front of her.

W could see that Ikaros had no purpose in contacting her, and he didn't want her to do anything.

Even the act of saving her was just a matter of convenience.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that her attitude was somewhat indifferent.

But because of this, W felt even more the gentle and kind nature of Ikaros, and felt from the bottom of his heart that the person in front of him seemed a little too dazzling and attractive.

After all, if Ikaros is really just a cold-hearted person who ignores everything, then why would she save a Sarkaz like herself who can be found everywhere?

Maybe W was just lucky and was saved by Ikaros.

But in W's opinion, she would not and is too lazy to think about the so-called possibilities, probabilities and the like.

It was enough for her to know that it was Ikaros who saved her.

Therefore, W will keep this teaching in mind and will never forget it in his life...

"Okay, I understand, Lord Ikaros." W nodded heavily, her voice a little hoarse, her face full of seriousness and solemnity. She would never be like this in the future.

"Okay, you're a teachable kid." Seeing W's serious expression, Ikaros smiled and touched her head. He had to admit that W's hands felt pretty good after taking a shower. Perhaps this was one of the innate advantages of Sarkaz women.

"Also, W, don't call me Master Ikaros anymore. I'm not used to people addressing me with respectful titles. Just call me Ikaros or Sister Ikaros."

When W called him "sir" twice at the beginning, Ikaros didn't feel anything special. But now, being called "sir" by W in front of a car full of people, Ikaros still feels a little embarrassed.

Considering the reality that W will follow their actions for a long time in the future.

Ekaros thought it would be a good idea to take advantage of this opportunity to ask W to change the way he addressed himself.

Being called "adult" all the time may satisfy some people's self-esteem and habits.

But obviously Ikaros is not among them.

"So... Sister Ekaros?"

Hearing this, W, who had obtained Ikaros's permission, spoke tentatively, his cautious tone making him look somewhat cute.

And Ikaros nodded and responded with a smile: "Well, I'm here, W."

"Wuhehe, Sister Icarus, Sister Icarus!" After getting a response from Icarus, W's orange-red eyes seemed to light up instantly, and he leaned on his seat and called out to Icarus twice excitedly.

"Yeah, yes, yes. Why are you so happy? It's just a name."

Responding to W, Ikaros was not annoyed. After all, this was the name she promised to give W. In addition, emotions are often contagious. Seeing W's happy and excited expression, Ikaros couldn't help but feel a lot better.

Although...Arturo's mood at the side was a little subtle.

After all, W calls her "Sister Icarus" all the time, which is a bit too intimate.

Arturo would not be jealous of a little Sarkaz girl just because of such a name. That would be too much.

But this feeling of being excluded and unable to join in the conversation made Arturo feel a little melancholy. After all, if he were in Lateran now, there would be no doubt that Icarus would stick to him.

But unfortunately, we are now in Kazdel, and Ikaros is chatting with someone else.

Although the purpose of the chat was also about their own affairs, Arturo still preferred to spend time alone with Ekalos.

All I can say is that I should finish Kazdel's affairs as soon as possible, and then return to the Holy City with my mother and Ikaros.

Or until they arrive at the place called the Tower of Babel.

Everything will probably become a lot easier.

But the devil and the like... things that only exist in legends and stories, do they really exist?

I always feel inexplicably curious.

I wonder what kind of music the so-called Demon King of Sarkaz can compose in his heart?

He distracted his thoughts and diverted his attention away from his childhood sweetheart.

Arturo couldn't help but think of the existence that they would most likely see on this trip, and he couldn't help but feel curious about it from the bottom of his heart.

After all, he is the legendary demon king.

If possible, Arturo would obviously be happy to compose his own music for him.

Hmm...preferably the kind with Ikaros.

After all, only then would Arturo have the confidence to compose the most profound and beautiful music in the world...

But why do I feel like something bad will happen if I do this?

How strange...
