This couldn't help but Luo Mo stepped forward again, touched Angelina's head carefully and said with emotion:
"Angelina... this time you should be able to fulfill your wish and be loved well."
"Who knows? By the way, can you stop giving me away as something??" Angelina gave him an angry look.
"Oh, it's not that I'm worried about you, that's why I found you a shit shovel in advance?"
"I will go to the toilet by myself!" She retorted, but she narrowed her eyes: "But what you said sounds like a last word... What's wrong? Are you finally going to die?"
"It's okay, even if this world perishes, I must be the one who can survive to the end."
"...Really? That's lonely, you."
Angelina felt that she should say something more, but she gave up speaking, and could only close her eyes and shake her head wordlessly.
Emnesia, who was also very excited about the huge amount of money, was now a little worried about his financial situation, and gently tugged on his cuffs, and said with concern:
"...Carlos, is it really good for you to give us so much money?"
"It's okay, I won't need it anytime soon anyway."
"Yes...that's it."
"So I'm a little worried about your affairs."
"We're fine." Emnesia lowered her eyes and shook her head lightly, whispering: "But... you will definitely come back, right?"
"...This may be a little difficult..."
"It is because of difficulties that we need to work hard."
"....I try my best."
"I don't want to try my best, aren't you the strongest? So... let me always be proud of you as the strongest."
With a slightly trembling voice, the girl expressed what she expected as if in a monologue, and tried to "impose" her expectations on it.
Originally imposed expectations should be unpleasant, but such persistent imposition is unexpectedly not annoying at all.
It even makes people want to respond to such expectations for no reason, and strive to make this expectation a reality...even Luo Mo is no exception.
.......................
It was dusk when we parted.
Outside the city gate, Emnesia, whose cheeks were flushed, turned her head to see Luo Mo off for them from time to time, while Avelia, who had collected the money, pulled her sister and sat on the broom without saying a word.
"Those things Carlos did...Avelia, aren't you angry?"
"Sister, if a traveler wants to make money, there is no way to make some gray deals and give up some principles."
Her eyes looked into the distance, and it seemed to Emnesia that she had grown a lot suddenly, so she touched her sister's head and sighed:
"You've grown up too, Avelia."
"No, I should just be defiled by that guy..."
"Good~good~"
Emnisia, who couldn't laugh or cry, could only repeatedly touch the head of her sister with empty eyes, and at the same time waved back at Luo Mo while comforting her.
Luo Mo stood on the coast outside the city gate, and didn't hear what they said, so he could only wave his hands in the same way, and just watched them go away.
Then he suppressed a trace of melancholy, looked at the gray-haired girl who was still behind her, who was holding her arms across her chest, coughed, and said solemnly:
"Cough...then let's talk about it."
"There's nothing to talk about! Now that you've said goodbye to your friends, you should be ready to die to apologize, right?"
"We can talk about everything."
"——I have suffered an unparalleled humiliation!" Irena emphasized her tone to express her attitude and determination to never compromise.
"I would like to compensate five hundred gold coins."
"What—really, really!? Are you really willing to give me five hundred gold coins?! Do you have that much money! Can I trust you? I believe you are fine!!?"
Irena, whose pretty face was still cold and frosty, was even ready to never compromise, but because of this sentence, her defenses were instantly broken, and she even became enthusiastic all at once, and even approached her directly.
Not only the eyes were about to turn into the shape of gold coins, but even the body was trembling with excitement because of the luxury trip that was about to start after getting the money.
"No matter what, I won't lie to you."
"No... wait? This is unreasonable? Normally at this time, shouldn't you argue with me? Why would you give me a huge sum of money directly? Tell me! What are your intentions??"
Once bitten by a snake for ten years and afraid of well ropes, Irena, who is familiar with Luo Mo, became alert to his unreasonable attitude... After all, it is too abnormal to directly offer an offer that she cannot refuse It's not like Luo Mo's style in her memory at all.
"I don't have any plans, just... Speaking of which, Irena, it seems that you haven't been back for four years, right? Don't you plan to go home?"
Even though Irena was obviously displeased with this change of topic, Luo Mo deliberately changed the topic to something she didn't want to mention with a very natural attitude.
But even if she didn't want to mention it, Irena still couldn't avoid it, turned her head to look at the sea, and said casually as if:
"From the beginning of the trip, I decided not to go home for ten years."
"why?"
"It's not easy going home, is it?"
"...You are a witch, if you want to go home, it's not that difficult. If it doesn't work, I can give you a very fast ride, okay?"
"Thank you!" For Luo Mo's rare generosity, Irena gave him a non-curious glance.
Although he didn't say it clearly, he also silently expressed his not wanting to go home.
But Luo Mo actually understands the reason, and it was mentioned a long time ago when it was probably a quarrel... For Irena, going home is basically the end.
The end of the trip, the end of a wonderful life.
Refer to "Nicole", the author of "Nicole's Adventure Story" where Irena's mother came home from a trip and married an honest man, Luo Mo can almost understand that she doesn't seem to want to live the same life as her mother ...at least not yet.
But even knowing it, he still deliberately asked:
"If you don't go home like this, your parents will definitely cry."
"...Dad cried very badly."
"Huh? Really? I cried a lot just because I was traveling, so when you get married, he will faint from crying, right?"
"I'm a traveler, so of course I don't think about getting married. By the way... how did you say the same thing as your mother?"
"Actually, I met your mother."
"Really?"
"She asked me to take good care of you."
"Ah~ this joke is not funny at all."
"It's too much, obviously what I said is true."
"you really are....."
I don't know whether it's a tacit understanding or what, Luo Mo thought of her mother's ending, and Irena also thought of the same problem.
Luo Mo once mentioned what he didn't finish last time... the thing that he will travel alone after a while after the trip.
So she pretended to think about it, then pretended not to care as much as possible, and repeated the same old thing: "What about you? Answer me seriously without nonsense...Are you planning to go home this time? Are you going to end your trip? ?”

Irena imitated his old story and brought it up again, which made Luo Mo ponder for a while before saying:
"It's hard to talk about the specifics right now, we can discuss it later, how about this...Since you always think that I have plans, then you go home, I will give you all 500 gold coins, how about it? "
"...What does my going home have to do with you? Compensation is compensation, why should compensation be tied to conditions?"
"Go back to your hometown and marry you?" Luo Mo teased deliberately, which immediately made Irena blush and angrily reprimanded: "You, what are you talking about!? Do you want to die!"
"Just kidding, anyway, you've been outside for so long, so it's okay to go back, right?"
"...I want to be a pure gray witch, I want to be a pure traveler." She expressed her thoughts simply and directly.
"This was discussed a long time ago, and my opinion is still the same. Wanting to travel has nothing to do with whether you go home or not."
"...It does matter, I may lose the reason to continue traveling." Irena asked back as if she couldn't bear it: "In the final analysis, don't keep talking about this, just talk about it! I'll reply It's none of your business if you don't go back? Why do you want me to go back so suddenly??"
"I'm just curious about what kind of person is able to educate a child like you. After all, I don't think your teacher is like you."
"...Like me? What about me?" Irena frowned, showing a displeased expression with premonition.
"Shall I say it?"
"Say it! What do you want if you don't talk about it for this kind of sake?"
Although she said so, Irena moved her hands unambiguously and poked his face with her wand, as if if he dared not say something nice, she would give him a good look.
"Like the author of that book, mean and loves money, right?" Luo Mo lowered her wand and shook her head. Or is it a subtle influence?"
"...You insulted me, but now you insult my mother?"
"Your mother certainly didn't find it insulting, and even flattered."
"You haven't seen it, how can you be so sure?"
"If she doesn't think so, she can completely beautify herself in various ways in her book, but if you look closely, you can find that she has no idea of beautifying herself at all."
The reasons given by Luo Mo made Irena unable to refute.
But she also found a problem, so she couldn't help but ask directly: "....What you said means that you..."
"I just glanced at the book briefly. After all, you told me so many times, even if I haven't read it, I can still guess what's written in it."
"...Is there really that many times?" Irena was a little embarrassed when she told him.
"Of course, you really don't have any self-knowledge." Luo Mo couldn't help but shook his head, and said again:
"Then? What on earth are you thinking? Are you planning to go back? You can earn 500 gold coins so easily. If you miss it, you really have no chance. You just go to work for the country and get a super high salary. If it is not a very rich country, there is no chance. After five or six years of hard work and frugality, you can't make so much money, can you?"
"...Woo~~"
Faced with the temptation of a huge amount of property that made her salivate and want to sleep with her arms around her at night, Irena crouched on the ground holding her head in pain.
It took a while for her to raise her head, staring at his face as if not wanting to miss any change in expression, and said suspiciously:
"Actually, you plan to send me home so that you can go on the road alone, right?"
