Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
It's infinitely dark.
The thick fog of gloomy obscures the whole world. The clouds of Bird Black heavy roll over the sky, and a thunderous thunder sounds, echoes, and then disappears. And the silence that still envelopes here is still dead. There is no life, no death, no hope, and no despair here.
Yes, it ’s just absolute nothingness.
The mist gradually dissipated, the thunder became louder, and the flash penetrated the clouds, knocking down the ground.
It's dazzling white, and the white ground makes people even unable to eyes opened under the light of thunder. As the mist dissipated, the snow-white spread like a carpet, extending to the distant platform below. But that ’s not a carpet, if you look closely, you ’ll see
That is bone like a mountain.
"!!!"
The Chris eyes opened jumped up like a frightened bunny.
At this time, it was afternoon, warm sunlight spilled in from the window, giving a lazy warmth. The clean and comfortable room was very quiet. The window was opened, and the noise and music sounds were sealed off Slipped in and brought a bit of tranquility + breath to here.
"Call MM ...
The girl stands in front of the window and reaches for her chest, let out a long sigh.
This is another dream.
Since the girl was born, this dream has always been around her, reminding her of her existence anytime, anywhere. The dream scene Chris has been remembered not very clear, but only then the mood remains in her In my heart, it was a melancholy, almost suffocating indifference, sadness and indifference with unparalleled despair. The girl did not understand what this dream meant. She used to desire to find the answer, but every time the girl tried to dig further into the dream itself, there was a strong strength that forced her out of it, making the girl miserable.
Even Rhodes ca n’t explain this dream for himself. The clever and learned Elder Sister Marlene also has no clue. Instead, Elder Sister Vivian will occasionally look at her with a very weird look, as if he is a rare animal. However, Chris did not feel disgusted unexpectedly. On the contrary, she felt a little familiar and intimate from Vivian. one by one but Chris did not know why.
"thump thump thump."
At this moment, the knock on the door sounded, the girl was startled, she turned around, walked to the door of the room and opened the door, appeared in front of Chris, it was Marlene with a soft smile face.
"Mou An, Chris, did you bother you?"
"... No ... 11, Marlene ..." I just woke up ..., "
Chris shook his head, staring curiously at the girl in front of her. In her impression, Marlene is not the kind of person who likes to run around. Different from Elder Sister Anne
The latter always likes to come to their room if they have nothing, sometimes they want to chat with themselves, sometimes they just want to share some delicious and exotic food with themselves, and even want to Give yourself a drink with foam, of course, this is firmly prevented by Elder Sister Leiya who always follows her.
The Chris is now less afraid of the three girls than they were before, and originally's fear of loss seems to have weakened a lot under the care of everyone. Now girls have begun to open their hearts and accept the goodwill of others. But the rewards are not necessarily as good as she wished, as if watching Annie ’s palm on the arena yesterday afternoon was pierced with a dagger through the that moment Chris pedicle and even felt that her heart had stopped beating. She never thought that worrying about someone would be so difficult and painful. Even the girl doubts whether her choice is correct. one by one The more she opens her heart and accepts the existence of others, then does it mean that she will have more in the future? How much worry and anxiety?
Girls do n’t know.
"..., 11 ... what's the matter ..."? "
"Mr. Rhodes is not with you?"
Fat ... not ......... "
I don't know why, Chris felt that when Marlene heard her answer, she seemed to show a trace of relaxation. She tilted her head a little confused, but she hadn't waited for the girl to figure out what was going on, but Marlene had already opened.
Her complexion slightly red is a little embarrassed.
"It's such a Chris pedestal" ... "I have something to ask you" ... "I hope you can give me a picture."
"…………" a painting? "
Hearing this, eyes of Chris was lit up, and a smile quickly appeared on her face.
Air "..." If Marlene wants, there is no problem at all? Which one do you want, I ’ll get it for you ... ""
In the face of Chris ’s inquiry, Marlene ’s complexion was a bit embarrassed. She looked around for a while, then leaned down, and whispered something to Chris ’s ear. After listening to Marlene ’s words, Chris It was nodded that suddenly seemed to be enlightened, then she trot all the way to the desk, took a picture from the picture folder, and then handed it to Marlene. Seeing this picture, Marlene showed a relaxed smile. She solemnly took the picture from Chris's hand, then folded it up and put it in her arms.
"Thank you" ... Chris. "
"..., you're welcome 11 ..." Marlene. "
Facing the thanks of Marlene, Chris shook his head gently.
I'm angry ... this is the only thing I can do ......... if you like ........., I'm very happy ......... "
"Of course I like it, then ........."
The words of Marlene are not finished, because at this moment, the voice of Leiya's suddenly sounded.
"Ah, Marlene, you are here."
Hearing Leiya's's voice, Marlene closed her mouth. She turned around and looked at Leiya in surprise, while both hands was slightly unnaturally behind her back.
"Leiya, what is the matter with me?"
"This is it.
Leiya did not notice the slightly odd movements of Marlene. She trot all the way to Marlene and took a deep breath several times before continued.
"A customer came to you and said that there is something to discuss with you."
"Guest? Find me?"
Hearing Leiya's answer, Marlene brows slightly wrinkled.
"Who is it?"
"She claimed to be Nancy Family's eldest daughter Alison, saying that she is your friend ...", "
Speaking of which, Leiya's has a strange expression. This is no wonder, after all, although she and Marlene said that they are very intimate, they have n’t seen it for a long time. During this period, Marlene has no new friends, but Leiya still feels weird one by one because of Marlene Never before has such a person existed in her own face. If she is really a good friend of Marlene, she can't say nothing with Leiya to Marlene.
Moreover, the attitude of the Miss Alison .........,
"I understand, I will check it out."
Marlene was keenly aware of the strange and embarrassing emotions of Leiya, so she did n’t say much, but turned around quickly and walked towards the reception room. And Leiya and Chris standing in place, after watching her back for a while, this hurriedly followed.
Entering the reception room, Marlene soon saw the girl who was sitting on the sofa and looked slightly smaller than herself. She was wearing a Noble girl's skirt and both hands clenched her fists on her knees, waiting anxiously. . Seeing the arrival of Marlene, the girl originally's panicked face showed a relief expression. She showed a warm smile, stood up, and trot all the way to the front of Marlene.
"Master Elder Sister, I finally saw you!"
"Alison?"
Looking at the young girl standing in front of her, Marlene brows faintly wrinkled, the expression of not speaking flashed across her eyebrows.
"What are you doing here? I remember I said clearly through magic servant. I am busy now. Is there anything could it be can't wait for after the Midsummer Festival?"
"Go ......... I miss Elder Sister."
The girl named Alison bit her lower lip, and an expression of puppy appeared as if she was abandoned by Master.
"Master Elder Sister has been away from Golden City for a long time. I have always missed Master Elder Sister. Now I heard that Master Elder Sister is finally back. Of course I look forward to seeing Master Elder Sister as soon as possible .... Yes, Master Elder Sister, you There should n’t be anything wrong this afternoon, so how about we go for a cup of tea together? The blessing of the Midsummer Festival, there are many precious goods recently, yes, and Elder Sister ’s favorite black leaf tea…
In the face of Alison, which was continually excited because of excitement, Marlene held her forehead with a headache. She wanted to refuse each other, but it was difficult to speak.
Alison, Nancy, are Marlene's friends in the academy.
It is not accurate to say that being a friend. Nancy Family and Shenia Family are friends. Since childhood, Alison has regarded Marlene as Elder Sister. However, Marlene is not as close to Leiya as Alison. Because of her attitude and expression of admiration, it is difficult for Marlene to regard her as a friend of the same age. After entering the academy, because of the proud character of Marlene, few people dared to deal with her. Only Alison was close due to the family relationship and admiration for her. Although it is not as pointless as Talking with Leiya, Marlene treats and treats her like a Younger Sister.
But sometimes, the performance of Alison makes Marlene a little helpless
It looks like this now.
She has the intention to refuse the other party ’s invitation. After all, it is not a good time to drink tea and chat, but it is difficult to speak to her lips. In any case, the relationship between Alison and herself is indeed good, and she is as The eldest daughter of Nancy Family, Marlene also had to consider that the relationship between his family and the other family also needs to be maintained. After all, she is also the heir to Shenia Family and cannot act according to her own preferences.
This is how Noble communicates.
Thinking about this, Marlene sighed. In these days of Mercenary Group, she feels happy and relaxed. Because here she does not need to worry about her identity or the identity of the other party, and can freely express her likes and dislikes. But now, back to Golden City, although the prosperity here is far more than the Deep Rock City in the backcountry, Marlene feels that he lacks the unfettered freedom of the past.
Something will be lost.
Alison personally came to invite you, so she was not good enough to not give her a face, and as Alison said, there is actually nothing particularly important for him to deal with right now. Annie was full of food all day long and fell asleep to sleep. She was so badly injured yesterday that she forgot to sleep. And the security of this station is tight, so I do n’t worry about being caught. As for their own dangers, Marlene did not think too much. If you say that the hick's site like Deep Rock City may have someone who has never heard of their name and dared to take action on themselves, but in Golden City, people who dare to do so No. What's more, even if they really want to do this, does their Middle Ring Mage's strength could it be look good?
Thinking about it, Marlene did n’t think the problem was too big, so in the face of the invitation from Alison, after the girl hesitated for a moment, it was nodded.
"Okay, if you just drink tea ........., I can take some time."
"Really! Great!"
After hearing Marlene ’s answer, Alison showed a delighted smile. Her excited complexion very red, even a little water vapor appeared in her eyes. She really cares about this invitation. And the girl's expression taking in the whole scene at once, Marlene also feels that somewhat regretted, she may not pay too much attention to the people around her.
Thinking of this, Marlene withdrew her thoughts, and then she turned her head to look at Leiya and Chris.
"So, Leiya, Chris, I will go out and tell Mr. Rhodes for me, I will come back as soon as possible."
"Okay, no problem, Marlene."
After hearing Marlene's words, Leiya hurriedly agreed with nodded. She didn't notice. At this time, Alison was secretly staring at herself, but her eyes quickly passed a fierce and disgusting expression, but It was only a moment. After the two had finished speaking, Alison regained her warm smile again. She took the hand of Marlene intimately and took her out of the living room. I do n’t know why, Leiya always thinks of each other ’s It seems that half of the attitude is for yourself.
At the entrance of the station, the luxurious carriage was already ready to continue. Marlene turned to the two men nodded, and then turned around and walked into the carriage. In the face of Marlene's greeting, Leiya and Chris were also hurriedly waving, but Alison didn't seem to want them to do this. She looked at the two of them in coldly, then came to the driver, lowered her voice and said something, then turned Get on the carriage and close the door.
Soon, the carriage started and quickly left the station.
"That Elder Sister does n’t seem to like us very much."
Until this time, Chris did n’t let go of it, and at the same time was a little uneasy about started talking. She has been bullied for so many years, and she is very sensitive to the psychological characteristics and personality responses of others. Although Alison is very good at disguising, Chris is still keenly aware of the deep hidden hostility and opposition to them. Disdainful, this makes the girl feel a little unhappy, not because she is underestimated by others, but because she feels that such a person is not worthy of being a good friend of Elder Sister Marlene.
“…………………… Go back, Chris pedicle.”
But Leiya did not respond to the Chris pedicle, she just watched the back of the carriage disappear, and then shook her head. Unlike Chris pedicle, Leiya was able to experience the mood of Marlene, although she said she had been wandering for so many years, but after all Since I grew up in the court, Princess Your Highness, Noble, such a communication, I have never eaten pork and have seen pigs run, so Leiya can make Marlene decisions. Although she is the same as Chris, she is more mature than the other.
Thinking of this, Leiya took Chris's hand and turned to leave.
Luxury carriages cross the street and come to a relatively remote and secluded residential area, which looks very beautiful. The pavement stone-made pavement and clear spring water, as well as the neat green trees and beautiful sculptures on both sides, It seems to be very refreshing.
"This is not your home, Alison."
Get off the carriage and look at the street scenes on both sides, Marlene brows wrinkled, and face her problem, Alison is lightly smiled.
"This is my residence outside, Master Elder Sister. The environment here is very good, very quiet, and it will not feel noisy, not afraid of being disturbed. It is a good place."
"It does look good."
Looking at the beautifully decorated and elegant mansion building, Marlene nodded. For Alison, lightly chuckling stepped forward, and soon attendant stepped forward to open the door, and at the same time guided the two into the mansion.
Like the appearance, the interior of the entire mansion is also very luxurious. A hint of sweet fragrance seems to be absent in the air. The red velvet carpet under the feet is very soft and soft. Both sides of the corridor are filled with exquisite statues and oil paintings. While enjoying these exquisite artworks, Marlene came to the reception room along with Alison. There are already exquisite desserts and hot black tea. It looks like as Alison said, it is just a normal afternoon tea time That's it.
"Master Elder Sister, come, please use tea, but this is the black leaf tea I got after a lot of effort."
Alison reached out diligently and poured a cup of black tea for Marlene personally, but Marlene did not refuse. She picked up the tea cup and took a sip quickly. The unique bitterness and sweetness of black leaf tea spread in her mouth, letting People feel a trace of relaxation.
"How is it? Lord Elder Sister?"
The girl with both hands cheeks looked at Marlene, and in the face of Alison's inquiry, Marlene smiled nodded slightly.
"Very good, Alison, it seems that you still know my preferences."
"This is of course, but you are the most admired Elder Sister, and this cake is also a special product? Please try it, Master Elder Sister, this is sweet and cold from the south, Very delicious. "
As always, there are no nutritious conversations between Nobles. Marlene took the cake from Alison absently and responded instinctively. If Annie is here, then she will definitely express a more straightforward opinion. Thinking of this, Marlene can't help but smiled inwardly, although Anne would definitely not be able to make young Noblewoman like herself, but when she saw that she was very happy to eat there, she would feel very happy ........., this This kind of feeling, but this kind of Noble tea party did not experience it.
"Master Elder Sister, you changed ..."
As soon as Marlene was tasting the cake, Alison watched her and sighed. She eyes hang down, flashing a shadow of pain and anger, but Marlene is still immersed in her own thoughts, and did not notice this.
"When I heard that you were leaving Golden City, I was very, very worried. I was always afraid that something would happen to you ..." Now that you are finally back, but ... you seem to have made many changes. "
"People will always change, Alison, we are all growing, everyone will change, I will change, and so will you."
Marlene put down the knife and fork in his hand and looked at the girl beside her, but what she saw was a somewhat dazed expression on Alison.
"However, I do n’t want to change, Master Elder Sister. If I can, I really want to maintain my previous life forever, because change is not always a good thing, is it? Lord Elder Sister? You can? Smile to those of origin inferior, why is it so serious to me? could it be I ca n’t compare to them? "
"Alison?"
The surrounding air began to become thick, and the light fragrance of originally was now sweet and honey-like and tangled around Marlene. The girl shook her head, and she felt that her mind was gradually changing. The vagueness, everything around seems to be distorted and reversed.
"Adult Elder Sister, why?"
Marlene raised his head and watched the deformed body of Alison stand up and came to himself.
"Why, I have always admired you all the time, but why do you prefer to treat those inferior people as your friends rather than treat me as your friend?"
"Alison ... you go ..."
Marlene clenched both hands. She had instinctively noticed something bad. The girl opened her mouth and wanted to sing the mantra, but in the next moment, she couldn't even make the slightest voice. In front of her eyes, the figure of Alison began to become more and more blurred and twisted. The whole world was like a haha mirror, spinning in front of Marlene, her body began to become fiery, strength began to flow quickly ......... "
"But it doesn't matter anymore, Master Elder Sister ......... As you said, everyone will change, and I will be the same. Now, I no longer long for your friendship ..."
The surrounding world is dim and dark, with the sound of Alison disappearing, the endless darkness completely swallowed the consciousness of Marlene ...
