Crane tail salted fish from the Academy of the Brave

Chapter 899

"Shiya, you..."

Ophelia and Huang Hua, who were about to leave, suddenly found that Shi Ya in front of them seemed a little strange.For some reason, her body suddenly froze in place, and at this moment, the expression on her face seemed to be enduring something, which was quite painful.

"I, didn't... poof!"

Countless thorn-like black chains suddenly emerged from Shi Ya's body, and then seemed to be performing some kind of torture, as if they were going to tighten and break her slender body, completely binding her up. .And being so hurt in an instant, she not only fell to her knees directly on the ground, but also spurted out a mouthful of black-red pus and blood uncontrollably.

"...is it a curse? Wait, this source is!"

Even though she covered her mouth with her hands in time, the thick black blood continued to flow out from her fingers.But the black chains wrapped around her body suddenly disappeared without a trace, as if they just wanted to torture her.

"Huh...huh...you two, seniors...can you just pretend that you didn't see anything?"

"The curse of the planet... why?"

Shi Ya's complexion was already pale, and even the tips of her hair turned gray because of this.She wiped the bruises she had spit out with her hands, and then showed a very forced smile to the two people who were supporting her on one side.

"It's just mine, it's just my own fault."

Shi Ya, who forced her body to stand up, took the initiative to take a step back and gently got rid of the support of the two people.Her appearance quickly returned to its original state under the influence of some kind of magic, as if nothing had happened just now.

But the light reflected in her eyes seemed to have dimmed by half.

"I once swore that no one could interfere with his destiny...but in the end, it was me who broke my oath first."

The power gained by praying to the planet turned into a curse due to breaking the oath.The price for fiddling with the fate of the Star Children without authorization is to be judged as an unforgivable sinner by the planet.

"I can't accept your proposal. Please don't... tell him."

Even if she lost the qualification to return to the planet forever, even if she had to endure a long and painful punishment, but in order to change the doomed fate, she used her strength to reverse the tragic ending without hesitation.

"He no longer needs to bear anything for others."

——And she has never regretted it.

"Effie, we should now..."

"I see... Your consciousness and feelings have been definitely passed on to us."

For some reason, Ophelia suddenly raised her hand to stop Huang Hua who was about to do something.The usual sly smile appeared on her face again, but this time, there seemed to be something else in that smile.

"We didn't see anything today, and we didn't say anything to you. You can pretend that we have never been here, and when we go back, we will pretend that we didn't see you this time."

"...Thank you very much, Ophelia-senpai."

"However, I have a condition."

Shi Ya did not expect that Ophelia would suddenly start bargaining at this time, and in order to ensure that the matter could continue to be concealed, she might have to agree to the request no matter how outrageous it was.

"Don't be nervous, it's not a request that will make it difficult for you. My condition is that as long as you are still the head of the Academy of the Brave, no matter what kind of situation you encounter in the future, you must continue to operate the academy normally. .”

This is indeed not an excessive condition, and Shiya doesn't understand why Ophelia values ​​the Academy of the Brave so much.But since the request was so simple, she didn't plan to ask any more questions.

"I understand. I will try my best to ensure the normal operation of the Brave Academy."

"Of course this is for your own good. Huang Hua and I will adjust the core system of the college later. We should slightly strengthen the defense capabilities of the college, which can probably ensure that any existence within the college will not be affected by planets in the future. level of direct interference.”

Only then did Shi Ya, who was stunned, realize that Ophelia was not asking her for anything at all, but was preparing a perfect shelter for her.As long as she doesn't leave the academy in the future, the curse of the planet will never be able to touch her again.

Although this is equivalent to being imprisoned for eternity, it is still much better than being subject to cruel torture at any time.

“…I am grateful beyond words.”

"No, no, no, I have selfish intentions. It's as if you don't want him to know what's on your mind, so I won't tell you either."

Whether Ophelia's words are teasing or have other meanings, Shi Ya doesn't want to think too much now.But she is really not ready to face her feelings now, and she doesn't know how to tell the truth to that person.

——Maybe she really needs some time to think about these issues.

"Okay, now that we've said all that needs to be said, it's time for us to leave. After a while, you can feel free to leave this room, and you don't need me to say more about what's going to happen next, right?"

"Please rest assured, two seniors."

Although the expression on Huang Hua's face was still a little worried, she still left the dean's office with Ophelia.And Shi Ya looked at their leaving figures, and in the end she just let out an inaudible sigh.

=====
"Effie, why are you doing this? We can obviously suppress the curse on her directly, and then let Lauren communicate with the planet to solve this problem."

"Don't be angry, I'm not bullying her. But... I also want her to experience what we have experienced."

"What if she can't take it anymore?"

While walking in a secret passage that almost no one knew about, Ophelia and Huang Hua discussed what had just happened.Although Ophelia looked very relaxed, Huang Hua seemed very dissatisfied and even a little angry.

"She is stronger than we thought. After all, she did exactly the same stupid thing as ours, and she plans to carry it until she dies."

"……yes."

"Although she said she didn't want that person to continue to bear all the fate alone, the answer she gave was to let herself bear it on his behalf... This feeling is quite heavy."

Perhaps after time has passed, this emotion that needs to be hidden for the time being will reveal its true side.But until that moment arrives, all patience will be severely tested.

Ophelia and Huanghua both knew very well that this was the "trial" that Shi Ya had prepared for herself as a brave man.

"So this time let us be the audience. Because this is the fate she chose."
