Release that Witch Chapter 1081: Silent night
After night, the entire camp is in silence.
People who have been busy all day have now completely fallen asleep, and witch is no exception.
But Lightning doesn't feel sleepy at all.
These days have been going on for almost half a month, or the moment she left Hidden Forest, she was inexplicably disturbed. The wound pecked by Macy also began to tingle, as if reminding her of what happened that day.
Lightning couldn't even tell whether this throbbing pain was her own illusion. She tried many methods to distract her attention, but ended in failure. However, to the naked eye, there was no change in the wound, neither disappeared nor enlarged, like a scarlet spot, stubbornly resting on her chest.
This sense of confusion makes her nervous, and she often falls asleep at three or four in the morning. Even so, the short sleep will be filled with nightmares one by one, and she will wake up with a little noise.
Looking to the side of Macy who slept soundly with octagonal pillows on his hair and slept soundly, Lightning sighed secretly.
She re-covered the quilt she had lifted, but she quietly rolled over the floor and walked outside.
witch's battalion is located at the center of camp. There are God Punishment Witchess on the periphery to guard her. She flew out of midair with the idea of not wanting to alarm the guard, and finally landed on the track under construction.
Clean moonlight filled the road under her feet, and the sides of the rails seemed like a silver edge; the evening wind blew the field covered by the night curtain, bringing not only the friction of bushes, but also the distant sound The nearby bird screams and sings. This kind of night scene has been able to enjoy Lightning for a long time, but now she has no thoughts of admiration.
She didn't even dare to look in the direction of Taqila. The monster hidden in the dark earth seemed to be staring at her. As long as her eyes passed, the scar on her chest would remind her of this fact.
Lightning looked at the sleepers that were receding under his feet, and there was a bitterness in his mouth.
In more than a month of recovery training, she managed to overcome her psychological fear before crossing the low border wall of Neverwinter City. She thought that as long as she persisted, she would be able to return to the normal state, at least if she couldn't face Taqila's high rank Devil again.
But she crushed this idea ruthlessly. Not only was she unable to use her awakening ability freely, she always felt bound when flying, and even when she encountered ordinary Devil, she lost her courage.
Otherwise, no matter what the enemy's idea is, she and Macy can make the four wild demon come and go.
Unfortunately, she just dared to follow the enemy far behind, waiting for them to retreat by themselves.
It can be said that she dragged everyone back.
Thinking of this, Lightning can't help but feel a little sore in his eyes.
Even if you try to hide it, impossible will always hide it from everyone.
Even if she's slow, like Macy, she's felt something wrong recently.
Maybe one day, she will drop her timid herself and fly to a higher place by herself.
What will she do then?
"I'm so useless," Lightning crouched down, buried his head in his knees. "People who are frightened by Devil have any qualifications to become head of Exploration Club. They will laugh at me when they know it. Well ... I always boast that I am the greatest explorer, and the result is weaker than anyone. "
Yeah, it sounds like there is a voice in answer, and they will laugh at you sooner or later.
"But I don't want to see this day ..." Her voice was choked.
Who made you love to boast down Haikou and take it for granted? If you don't want to see their ridicule, you can't avoid it except to leave here and go to a place where no one knows.
"Just leave ... here?"
"That won't work," someone said suddenly.
"Eh?" Lightning froze, raised head came suddenly, and saw a familiar figure standing not far away. In the pale moonlight, the other's long ears and tail looked particularly eye-catching. "... Logia?"
"cough cough" Werewolf coughed twice, "It was stated in advance that I didn't overheard you talking to you."
At this moment, she noticed that Logia's body was full of sweat, reflecting the moonlight. The wheat-colored skin unique to Mojin people was like the flares covered with morning dew.
"Did you just ... train?"
"Yeah, I don't have the powerful power inherently like Exceed. Even if it turns into Desert Wolf, I need to practice to strengthen myself. Otherwise, let alone fight, it's enough to run even a few steps." Logia stalls, "Recently, Devil did not take the initiative to attack, and I promised that Great Chief would not leave the position without authorization. Even the basic amount of activity cannot be guaranteed, and it can only be replenished at night."
"Really ..." Lightning suddenly came back to her, she quickly took a deep breath, both hands covered her face, "You all heard and heard?"
This question does not use answer at all, and the ears of the wolf have always been extremely keen.
She suddenly felt hot on her face.
"That ..." Logia paused, "I have never comforted anyone, so I will not comfort you now. I just want to tell you a story about my father."
"Although he was born in Wildflame Clan, he also inherited the name of the fire, but at that time no one thought he would become the head of a family. Because of the eight heirs, he had a very obvious deficiency: fear of life, dare not One person goes out to participate in joint hunting. This is also a major event for Mojin Sandpeople as a selection of Clan Head. After all, Clan Head is not only an internal ruler, but also needs to show influence. Each Clan will send the most outstanding young generation to prove their strength . "
Lightning couldn't help but hold back ... did she hear me right? The feared person in the other's mouth, not long ago, was still in the Neverwinter City Games, and even attracted the attention of Your Majesty Roland. Is it possible Logia's father is actually someone else?
"In fact, when he told me these things, I didn't believe it at all, and I also asked my grandfather to confirm," Logia smiled, walked over and crouched beside her, "but it turned out to be true. I When I asked my grandfather why he wanted to pass the Clan Head position to his father, he said answer, Gulz alone may not do anything, but as long as he is accompanied by his clan, he is the most powerful warrior in the clan. In this case, then Don't show up with situation that left him alone. And Clan close together is itself the normal state most of the time. Compared to this, what can a hunting prove? "
Lightning felt a throbbing heart.
"Actually what my father and elder brother did in Neverwinter City ... I'm still very happy," Logia lowered his ears. "Because my father did something that he would never be able to do alone for me ... Although some shame is It's over. "
Uh, is it ... this? You obviously left them in the castle hall, and ran back to the witch building alone, and said that you never want to see them again, although it does not feel appropriate to meet them.
"I think my grandfather probably wanted to tell me that courage comes from both his own heart and other people." Logia said slowly, "In that case, why should we care about individual courage? Similarly, if Exploration Club Partner in crisis, would you give them up and run away alone? "
Lightning was silent for a moment, "... thank you."
"I said, this is not a comfort, it's just a story." The wolf girl tilted her head, "so thank you for everything. In addition, Exploration Club is quite interesting ... Since you pulled me come in You have to be responsible in the end. "
She felt that her eyes were a little sore again, and she rubbed it twice before pretending to be calm. As she was preparing for answer, the other person suddenly turned around and covered her mouth.
"Shh"
"What's wrong?" Lightning asked in a low voice when Logia was released.
"Did you hear anything?"
Sound? She lifted her head and listened carefully, except that there was nothing but the evening breeze.
Wait ... what about the tweets of night owls and bugs?
"Something came in that direction," Logia straightened his ears, and looked toward the night sky to the east. "Be careful with this howling!"
She hugged Lightning and rolled down the subgrade!
Almost at the same time, a harsh roar exploded above the heads of the two!
