As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

After he got drunk, she forced him to be naked and have physical contact with him.

I almost got drunk and had sex with him and hurt him!

He must have thought that I was some perverted nympho who couldn't control Xingyu when she was drunk!

Just thinking about this made Jon Snow feel a stomachache.

The empire was generally conservative, and traditional aristocratic women's dresses had to be at least short enough to cover their knees. In extreme cases, even adults were not allowed to kiss the opposite sex before marriage.

The kiss of the imperial people can only be a kiss that determines a lifetime.

Unfortunately, Jon Snow is a conservative Imperial.

In her fantasy, mixed bathing between men and women is an overly stimulating act that can only be done after marriage.

In addition, as an elder and a mentor, she was already guilty, so she never thought of taking her anger out on Roy. She completely forgot that he was a scumbag who was playing with multiple women at the same time. She only felt that she almost tarnished the boy's beauty and everything was her fault.

Now that she noticed Roy keeping his distance, she couldn't even utter a word of questioning and could only force a very forced laugh.

"If I disturb you, I'll go back first."

Seeing Jon Snow lower his eyes with a gloomy look on his face, Roy felt a little guilty.

No matter what, I have been favored by her these days. Even if she has no credit, she has worked hard.

Moreover, for some reason, seeing her melancholy look made me feel quite uncomfortable.

Even if they are not lovers, Jon Snow is still an important person to him.

"It's not that I'm disturbing you." Roy forced a cheerful smile and said casually, "Or is it that Miss Snow missed me after just a short while?"

Unexpectedly, Jon Snow looked over without hesitation and blurted out in a delicate voice as clear as an ice spring: "Is it okay if I miss you?"

This straight ball made Roy unable to hit the target.

Realizing that his words were too direct, Jon Snow's cheeks felt a little hot.

"Lian, it's normal for lovers to miss each other, right?"

"Well, that should be it."

They both looked away at the same time, their heartbeats quickened, their minds went blank, and they fell into an awkward silence.

Passing tourists laughed secretly, lamenting the youthfulness of young people.

The golden-winged griffin ran away with a groan as if a lemon had been smeared on its face.

Fortunately, the sailboat docked in time, and the tourists disembarked one after another, which gave the two of them a chance to change the subject and pretend nothing had happened.

After a short rest on Aurora Island, the tourists followed the guide to the observation deck on the coast.

It is an observation deck and also a restaurant.

The circular building is transparent on all sides, and each floor serves as a bar. Visitors can enjoy food and drinks while climbing high up to encounter the aurora borealis at the closest distance.

The top floor was the best viewing platform exclusively for the local lord, but now it was exclusively for Jon Snow and Roy.

Even the accompanying guards gathered on the next floor to avoid disturbing the two.

In the winter in the north, the sun sets early.

The night spreads out, but it is dotted with countless stars, shining brightly and not falling into darkness.

There is still some time before the aurora predicted by the astrologers appears. In the sky, only the stars and the moon are hanging quietly high, but the crowds are already overflowing with enthusiasm.

Even on the top floor, you can hear the laughter and joy coming from below.

In such an atmosphere, even the usually cold Jon Snow couldn't help but smile a little more, his ice-blue and crystal eyes looking into the night sky, which was shining with starlight.

With a straw in his mouth, Roy had no intention of tasting the drink anymore. All he had in his eyes was the silver-haired girl.

Roy couldn't help but sigh when he thought that such a beautiful girl might not be his lover.

"Come on, Roy, do you know the legend of the Aurora?"

"The goddess's skirt brings eternal love to those who join hands with their hearts - I have heard this many times along the way."

"Do you believe this legend?"

For some reason, Roy always felt a subconscious distrust of the concept of goddess.

But when a girl asked him that, even if he had lost his memory, Roy would not give a straight-talking answer.

He feigned hesitation and said, "Since the holy light from the goddess is real, this legend must also be true."

"Not necessarily." Jon Snow sighed softly, withdrew his gaze from the starry sky, stared into the void, and said calmly: "The Holy Light is just an extraordinary power."

Jon Snow recalled the contents of the textbook: "There are four eras of known civilization, and the theory of the Holy Goddess of Light creating the world is only popular in the third era. Aside from the stubborn church, mainstream academia has always maintained a skeptical attitude towards the goddess's creation theory."

"The so-called aurora may just be a natural phenomenon and may not have anything to do with the Holy Light Goddess."

Roy said nothing.

No, I don’t want to be a straight man, so why are you trying to be a straight woman?

You've come all this way, so don't ruin the atmosphere!

Just as Roy was secretly smiling bitterly, Jon Snow suddenly turned around and looked at him.

"But I hope the legend is true."

The silver-haired girl curled her lips into a smile, her snow-white eyebrows softened, and her beautiful ice-blue eyes blossomed with a brilliance even more moving than gazing at the stars in the distance.

Like a bright frost moon, it eclipses all the stars in the night sky.

This, this subtext doesn't mean...

The girl's smile made Roy feel a little flustered, and his heart felt like it was being hit hard.

However, Jon Snow was far from being as calm as he looked, and his heart was also beating fast.

There shouldn't be any feelings between a master and a disciple.

The relationship between them was destined to have no future.

Think rationally about a relationship that shouldn't continue.

But it is also a feeling that Jon Snow cannot control, cannot restrain, and cannot ignore or see.

Of course she knew it was a mistake. Even if she used lies to temporarily erase the gap between master and disciple, Roy would eventually remember everything.

Not to mention, Roy himself has several lovers.

But even so, she didn't want to hide her feelings.

Like a candle flame glimpsed in a long snowy night, even if Mingzhi was destined to go out, she couldn't help but want to get closer.

"Snow, Miss Snow, you mean..."

"Call me Snow."

Exclamations came like a tide.

The bright green light bands dance lightly in the night sky, creating a colorful spectacle.

It is a dreamlike scene that is worthy of the title of one of the top ten wonders.

The gorgeous watercolor, like splashed ink, inadvertently outlines the most moving and beautiful scene in the world.

However, neither the silver-haired girl nor the black-haired boy was distracted by the aurora, and their eyes were fixed only on each other's figures.

Since when, Roy has become the most beautiful thing in her heart.

So at this moment, Jon Snow no longer wanted to hesitate.

"Roy, I..."

"But we're not lovers, are we?"

Under the boy's calm gaze, Jon Snow's eyes trembled and the blood drained from his face.

The aurora blooms brilliantly, cheers rise one after another, and countless lovers kiss at this moment, praying for the goddess's mercy and blessing.

At the same time, Jon Snow lowered his eyes and his mood dropped to freezing point.

Right.

The legend is false.

Lovers are fake.

Fake is always fake. Everything between them is just a lie woven by their own wishful thinking.

And when the lies are torn apart, it is time for you to pay the price.

Chapter 139 It's Not False

Jon Snow's expression darkened, and he sighed gloomily, "You finally remembered it."

Roy nodded slightly: "It's not much I can remember, but it's enough."

"At least I know we're not lovers at all. Am I right, Mr. Snow?" The moment he said this, Roy's memory cleared up, his suspicions finally confirmed. All his feelings of dissonance finally had an answer.

No wonder Jon Snow reacted so strongly in the bathroom. I always felt a sense of resistance in my heart.

It is normal to have a gap between master and apprentice.

The familiar words made Jon Snow shudder again, his lips trembling, and it seemed as if he had to use all his strength to say a single word.

Although Jon Snow had long thought that this day would come, he didn't expect it to come so soon, so coincidentally, and at this time.

Oh, even now, I still regret that I can’t express my feelings to Roy.

Jon Snow, you are such a bastard who only thinks about yourself.

That's your apprentice.

The apprentice who accompanied you, helped you, and saved you at all costs, but how did you treat him?

He used lies to cover up his dirty and evil thoughts, and almost hurt him. He is really unworthy of being a teacher!

Cursing himself in his heart, Jon Snow had already lowered his head, too embarrassed to face the boy's gaze.

She was afraid to see coldness, fear, and disgust in those eyes that were always gentle, respectful, and trusting.

"Can I ask you something? Why on earth would Mr. Jon Snow do such a thing?" Roy's tone was very flat.

But every time she heard a word Roy said, Jon Snow felt like a sharp knife piercing her heart, causing her brows to twist in pain.

"Why......"

Jon Snow raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at himself.

"You should know the answer, right?"

"I want to hear it from Mr. Snow himself."

What a mean heart.

But this was his own mistake, so even if Roy wanted to take revenge, he should have done so.

Thinking of this, Jon Snow sighed again, then turned around and looked at the night sky.

The aurora was still bright and gorgeous, but the icy blue eyes were filled with nothingness.

"because I like you."

"At first I just admired you and wanted to be your mentor. But gradually, I found that I couldn't leave you."

"When you are in danger, I will lose my composure. When you are lonely, I will feel depressed. When you smile, even I feel like I am illuminated by the rising sun. It's so warm here." Jon Snow held his chest, recalling the little things with the boy, and smiled unconsciously.

"At first I didn't know what this meant, but I'll always be there for you as a mentor."

"It wasn't until the day Winter proposed to me that I woke up."

"If I had to choose someone to spend the rest of my life with, that person would have to be you."

"But how can a mentor be with an apprentice?"

Unfortunately, all of this is just my wishful thinking.

After hearing this, Roy finally got the answer.

Teacher Xue Nuo actually has such feelings for me...

A little unexpected, but not that unexpected.
