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

Chapter 104: For the sister who chose to commit suicide to escape, Skadi's punishment was...

The sound of wind blowing past his body rustled in his ears, and Ikaros looked at the fake artificial sun in the sky, although the final result seemed to be no different from his own goal.

But the girl still felt that something was a little wrong.

For example, Skadi shouldn't be here, and why did Skadi rush over and take him and himself to jump off the building together...

The fresh fragrance of wisteria flowers with the salty smell of the sea rushed into Ikaros' nose.

Perhaps because his brain had not yet reacted to the current situation, Ekalos, with a confused mind, only felt that even if Skadi was in the military camp, she must have taken good care of the seeds entrusted to her.

Maybe it has grown into a cluster of beautiful wisteria flowers?

Although the seeds I prepared for Skadi were the best...

Thinking about this and that, Ikaros, who was falling in the air, stared at the artificial sun that was emitting dazzling warm light. She inexplicably felt that the warmth was fake but indispensable. Perhaps her feelings for them were the same. At first, it was just to relieve the loneliness in her heart, but then it was like a gardener carefully caring for seeds picked up from outside. Without knowing what kind and variety they were, she naturally had no idea what kind of flowers would grow in the end.

But the false light did shine on the girl's fair and beautiful face, bringing a touch of warmth and brightness. This is an indisputable fact, just like Ikaros' love for everyone.

This is the truth born out of falsehood, but it is so real that it is too false.

Ikaros had to admit that he seemed a little literary now. Normally, he shouldn't think about so many things.

But after falling at high speed and being hit by Skadi, the frail elder sister who has seen the ups and downs of life still wants to lament her past a little. It would be best if she could use it as her epitaph, so that people who pass by later would not mistake her for an emotional fraud.

Of course, the premise of all these things is that Ikaros can survive the falling process.

At the very least, Skadi must survive.

Ikaros could accept his own death, but he could not accept that the people he cared about died because of him. It was not worth it, just like forcing a healthy and beautiful flower to give up its nutrients for the sake of its dying flower.

——Where in this world is there such a logic of giving up something near for something far away?

As one of the few and most skilled gardeners in Agor, Ekaros, at least that's how he sees himself, cannot accept this.

She would rather believe that if she looked up she could see the so-called stars in the books of the land people, shining like gems inlaid in the sky at dawn and dusk, that the people of Agor were targeting her for some salvation plan, and that the "potion" that almost took her life was really given to her by Gloria, rather than believe this truth.

Therefore, Skadi cannot die, even though Ekaros knows that with the high physical fitness of the average deep-sea hunter, there is a high probability that after falling down, there will be a scene where a beautiful girl is pressed down by a large ball of meat paste, but that will leave a psychological trauma on Skadi, so Ekaros needs to think about how to survive.

At least she wanted to die a less ugly death. She actually wanted to maintain her dignity as a sister, even though committing suicide by jumping off a building was not decent no matter how you looked at it.

At this moment, Ikaros, who wanted to survive, suddenly felt that his choice was stupid.

People tend to be much calmer when the desire to survive arises, and they may also have a sudden realization because of the biological instinct to live. Of course, Ikaros certainly did not want to end his life, but he realized that jumping off a building was a bit hasty.

Although it is somewhat romantic to transform one's last magical power into a butterfly with broken wings falling from the sky.

But if I am rescued in the end, wouldn’t it affect the people I care about?

Although he was afraid of loneliness, Ikaros still hoped that he could die alone. After all, that way he could avoid affecting the people he loved.

But it was obviously not time to continue fantasizing with Ekaros.

Having decided to survive for the time being and absolutely not die in front of Skadi, she was thinking seriously about how she should survive.

But as soon as she started thinking, Ikaros found that she seemed to be unable to think of any solution at all. After all, she had no power and no right to choose, let alone the right to change the answer after choosing.

Jumping from a building nearly 100 meters high could cause serious injuries to an ordinary Agor, let alone a sickly and beautiful girl who was planning to end her own life.

The situation was so awkward that Ikaros, who was originally ready to die, had temporarily given up the idea of ​​dying, but was accidentally pushed off the building by Skadi, who came anxiously after hearing the news...

Ugh……

The drama of fate made Ikaros feel at this moment that he was like a clown in a circus. He suddenly wanted to give up thinking and taking remedial measures and just die in Skadi's arms.

After all, who made the little killer whale abandon him for revenge? He even overturned the dining table that night, argued with him, and even planned to escape through the window at night.

It's reasonable for me to punish the other person a little, right?

I guess as a sister who has been with Skadi for so many years, if I died, Skadi would be more or less sad for a while, right?

Such a bad thought briefly emerged in Ikaros' mind, but the girl's inner tenderness quickly dispelled this evil thought. After all, this was too hellish. Besides, he wanted to die not to irritate the people he loved, but just to avoid being involved with them in the future and to put an end to his meaningless life of his own choice.

But now that Ikaros doesn't want to die anymore, there seems to be no way to temporarily postpone his ticket to the underworld from the reservation of Miss Death's scythe.

So it seems that we can only rely on Skadi, right?

I heard that the physical fitness of deep-sea hunters is about five to twenty times that of normal Agor people. Perhaps this height is not something that Skadi is helpless against?

Ikaros transferred her hope of solving the current predicament to Skadi, who was holding her waist and falling with her. But to be honest, Ikaros felt that she seemed to be falling too fast. But when she thought of Skadi's weight that could break the special weight, she felt relieved.

I can only say that I hope Skadi really has a solution.

Otherwise, at this speed and Skadi's weight, even though Ikaros doesn't want to die for the time being, he will probably have to go to the underworld to work as a gardener for the god of the underworld and plant red spider lilies to guide the dead.

And perhaps it was also to respond to Ikaros's inner hope.

After the two women fell together for about two seconds, Skadi, who was holding Ikaros tightly because of her panic and nervousness, finally realized in the rustling cold wind what she needed to do to avoid falling, instead of being glad in her heart that Ikaros was finally held in her arms.

So the young hunter moved, and changed his hands from hugging Ikaros to holding Ikaros' waist with one hand. After raising his head from Ikaros' chest, he gave Ikaros, who was looking at him with obviously nervous eyes, a silly but confident and reassuring look, and then one hand grasped the hilt of the black heavy sword from behind, which had torn the flesh and blood of countless sea heirs.

Whoosh——

Then there was the dull sound of a heavy sword tearing through the air, as well as the crackling sound of stone and steel colliding.

In a flash, Skadi inserted the heavy sword into the hospital building less than 30 meters from the ground, and held the heavy sword tightly with terrifying strength. Using a strange skill of leveraging force, she held Ekaros in the air to adjust her position, and began to slow down the accumulated speed of the two women's fall at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It's just like the trick used by the knight when he fell off a cliff in the Dayan story.

However, Skadi did not rely on any martial arts to slow down her falling speed. Instead, she simply relied on her strong physical fitness and strength to force gravity to surrender.

Ikaros' eyes widened at the sight.

Although she knew how powerful the deep-sea hunters were, after seeing the scene before her, Ikaros suddenly felt that her imagination seemed to be somewhat lacking.

Especially at the end, when the two girls were steady at five or six meters above the ground, they stopped falling completely. Skadi directly drew out the heavy sword from the bottom of a 20-meter-long "scar" on the outer wall of the hospital, and held her in one hand and landed steadily.

It further refreshed Ikaros's understanding of the profession of deep-sea hunter.

She knew very well that although Skadi's physical fitness was different from that of ordinary people and much stronger than the normal Agor, it was still within an acceptable range.

But at this moment, Ikaros could only use the word pure power to describe the familiar yet unfamiliar girl in front of him, who was wearing a black custom combat uniform.

But no matter what, Ikaros and Skadi finally landed safely.

Although this method of landing safely stunned the bystanders, it also made the hospital director almost faint due to the gap between extreme excitement and loss.

But overall, Skadi did prevent Ikaros from committing suicide.

Let Ikaros be safe for the time being.

Well... safe for now.

"Sister Ekaros, I hope you can give me an explanation later."

The bloodshot eyes glanced at the dazed Ekaros, and Skadi did not loosen her hands on the other's waist at this moment. Instead, without waiting for Ekaros to answer, she carried Ekaros on her shoulders after saying this, put away the heavy sword in her hand that was still as sharp as before, and glanced coldly at the passers-by in front of her with a bad mood.

The pedestrians also sensed from the silver-haired, red-eyed hunter that he was in a bad mood at the moment, so they tactfully made way for noble lords like passers-by in the Middle Ages, and gave the newly repaired sidewalk to Skadi.

Finally, they watched the hunter holding his "prey" disappear from everyone's sight step by step.

However, even though Skadi and Ikaros had disappeared, the crowd gathered here still did not flee immediately. After all, the scene in which Skadi saved the life of a beautiful girl like a god was still fresh in their memory. It was no exaggeration to say that it was very shocking.

After all, who hasn’t had the fantasy of showing off one’s talents in front of a pretty girl, becoming a hero in her eyes, and then winning her heart when they were young?

Although this wave of Ikaros and Skadi can only be described as a match between a female warrior and a beautiful woman.

However, such a beautiful scene is indeed one of the few tenderness and comforts for this city that has suffered an unexpected disaster and is full of scars.

At least people got to witness that tragedy is not irreversible, and they didn't see the death of life again, right?

This is undoubtedly the best gift for this city that has just experienced a disaster.

It was not until the hospital director asked everyone not to disrupt the order of the hospital that the bystanders left one after another and continued to do their own things.

Despite the unforgettable disaster, many people lost their friends, family and loved ones.

But life must go on.

Those who survive always need to carry the wishes and weight of the dead and move on, even if the dead have already lost that heaviness long ago.

The transition from morning to night will not be delayed because of a person's death, and the stars in the sky will not stop twinkling because of a person's death. Perhaps this is cruel, but most of the time, the dead are dead, buried in a wooden coffin, and there will be no follow-up after a few cries from family members and friends. Perhaps in the next few years, someone will come to sweep the grave and pay homage, and from time to time will think of the beautiful memories related to the dead person that are vaguely processed by memory.

But that is ultimately just a topic of conversation after dinner. When you die, nothing is left. This is the cruel reality, especially for ordinary people who are always between greatness and mediocrity.

Ikaros felt that his death might be a relief, and might have value.

But actually?

When she made this choice, she ultimately chose the path of escape. After all, how could she care about the affairs of the living after her death?

Similarly, the affairs of those who are still alive have nothing to do with her.

Perhaps it was because Ikaros knew this deep down in his heart that he hurried home with Skadi carrying him on his shoulder in an extremely embarrassing posture.

The sickly girl with long blue hair and a beautiful figure and face did not show any sign of struggling.

Perhaps it was because of guilt that it didn't dare to face Skadi's eyes filled with worry and anger, or perhaps it was regretting that it failed to end its life successfully, and was thinking about how to explain to Skadi later so as to fool this cute and silly killer whale.

But this is not easy to fool after all.

After all, to the people you care about, even the dumbest person can burst out with wisdom like Sherlock Holmes.

What's more, what about Skadi, who regards Ikaros as the only pillar in her heart and relies on the moonlight to guide her forward in the darkness?

Fortunately, Ikaros is not without help.

However, this helper who could help her get through the sadness was unknown to her at the moment. He was still wearing a black cloak, standing in front of the bakery, staring blankly at the bread samples.

Chapter 105: Punishment is a declaration of confession!

[In the silence, Skadi carried you back to your flower shop.]

[Just returned to the flower shop, Skadi didn't say anything to you, just put you on the chair, turned around and picked up the broom beside to clean the flower shop without saying a word. ]

[You can see that Skadi is sulking with you, but because the little killer whale cares about you very much and is not very good at talking, she can only protest to you in this way, and from time to time she stares at you with her red eyes, silently asking for your explanation.]

[You want to try to evade the issue, using many of the methods that Skadi used to successfully fool you when you were weak or hallucinating.]

[However, during this time with Skadi, these past methods against Skadi agent did not play any role at all. ]

[Whether you try to coax Skadi or try to get away with it by being cute, you will only get Skadi's sullen and dissatisfied look in the end, and the little killer whale will continue to stare at you silently.]

[You realize that Skadi is really angry with you this time.]

[And if you don't give a reasonable explanation, I'm afraid Skadi will continue to be angry with you, and something bad might even happen.]

[So finally, you plan to confess something to Skadi.]

[But your confession doesn't seem to be going so smoothly...]

【After all, everything about you is seen by Him. 】

[Since you don’t want to say too much and don’t want to involve the people you care about, although He doesn’t care about all of this, He cares about what you care about. ]

[Therefore, we will naturally choose to give you corresponding help silently when you need it...]

……

Someone once seemed to have said, 'Death is the best silence in this world.'

But at this moment, the sickly girl named Ikaros felt that it would be most appropriate to change this sentence to "Silence is the best death."

After all, the atmosphere in the flower shop is not really good nowadays. The dull atmosphere that is almost at freezing point surrounds the two beautiful girls. The silence between the sickly elder sister and the young hunter makes the beautiful flower shop, which has finally gained some vitality, seem even more depressing.

To be honest, when people are silent or feel the atmosphere is depressing, they always subconsciously want to do something to ease the atmosphere, or think about something else to relieve the depression in their self-cognition.

Ikaros had already tried the former, but unfortunately it had little effect in the end, so now she had no choice but to choose the latter.

Although the flowers in the flower shop have not been properly taken care of for two days, although they are gorgeous, they also have a vitality that is completely different from their soft appearance. Despite not having Ikaros's usual careful care, they still bloom tenaciously, like the setting sun that is about to disappear, emitting their last light and warmth all the time, and until they completely sink into the sea, they do not forget to silently watch the world through the moonlight.

Surrounded by the flowers and potted plants, even though Skadi had a cold face, the scene of the girl watering the flowers with a sprinkler and loosening the soil for the potted plants with a small shovel in her hand, which was in sharp contrast to the heavy sword behind her, still created a strange feeling due to the excessive contrast...

Should I say cute?

Inappropriate, because in Ikaros' eyes, Skadi has grown up a lot compared to when she left more than a year ago. She has shed the immaturity that is unique to children who have just reached adulthood, and has gained perseverance and maturity called responsibility. Although the honesty and simplicity in her eyes has not changed in essence, this is also a kind of proof of Skadi, isn't it?

Everyone is unique. Ikaros hopes that Skadi will never lose her original color in the process of growing up. After all, that level of growth is too cruel.
