You and me under the world tree

She responded dryly.

"I know."

Agather said in a low voice.

"After all, this matter seems to be very important, and it must be kept secret."

Hearing this, Gloria couldn't help feeling even more uncomfortable.

"It's not just for this reason."

She couldn't help but speak.

"Actually, I'm also afraid..."

Speaking of this, Gloria suddenly paused for a moment.

"I don't know how to speak to you. At that time, you were so enthusiastic and you already had a good impression of Utgarde, which made it even more difficult for me to speak."

"Ah, that seems to be the case."

Chapter One Hundred and Fourteen: Never Regret

Eggers subconsciously closed his eyes.

Gloria's words were like a guiding light, bringing out the memory in her mind.

It was a long memory that gushed out like a tide.

Come to think of it, that was really a long time ago.

"I remember, at that time I first met Utgarde, and then through him, I met you."

"Yes."

Listening to Eggser's nostalgic words, Gloria nodded and responded even though her heart felt bitter.

"Actually, at that time, I was also quite surprised, because although that Utgarde guy seemed cynical and enthusiastic, he was actually alienated and indifferent in his dealings with others."

Having said that, Gloria suddenly looked back at the huge room.

"No one can approach him at all, and you are the first woman to approach him."

"Well, at this point, I'm quite happy."

Having said that, Eggers suddenly laughed.

"At least, I'm unique to him, and always have been."

Eggers' words didn't seem to be a problem at first glance, just like an ordinary girl showing off her hard-won precious love.

She's just saying that Utgarde holds her dearly.

But combined with her own identity, Gloria quickly realized something was wrong.

"How much do you know?"

Gloria subconsciously raised her head to look at her good friend who seemed extremely tall to her, and this happened to meet her gaze.

"A lot, including things about myself and that man."

Hearing this, Gloria even found that she had no way to relax and breathe.

She subconsciously began to hold her breath.

"That man?"

she asked in a low voice.

"Loki..."

When this name was mentioned, Eggers' expression, which should have been extremely calm, suddenly became complicated.

"No, maybe it should be 'Lodour' . . . "

At the same time, her breathing became a little short, as if this name had an extremely profound meaning to her.

"Lord."

After hearing this address, Gloria's expression revealed a bit of weirdness.

She didn't have any special feelings about this name. After all, although she knew Loki, she was definitely not very familiar with him.

She reacted only because the word wasn't very good.

"If I remember correctly, the meaning of this taboo name is not good."

"Well, the humble and weak (rags) who can only rely on temptation for profit, the fancy seducer... Although Jotunheim doesn't use this word very much now, but a long time ago, among the frost giants, this Words are used to describe weaklings who have no power."

Gently closing his eyes, Eggers said in a low voice.

"However, Loki was that name at the time."

Gloria sighed.

In fact, she has not experienced the events of that era, but from this name alone, she can see the hardships of that ancient era.

In the era when Ymir was still alive, the rule of the frost giants was that the weak preyed on the strong, and strength determined status, so it was normal for Loki, who had no 'talent' to show, to be regarded as an incompetent waste.

But if you think about it carefully, if you live in that era, I'm afraid the end will not be so good, right?

Although Gloria doesn't have good feelings for Loki, she doesn't think she will live better than him.

After all, he was in a very bad situation at that time, and it seemed that even his family could not accept him.

Then, Gloria's complicated but chaotic thoughts stopped here.

She felt that she didn't need to continue to think about this aspect, and what happened to Loki had nothing to do with her after all.

All she cares about is her friend's attitude towards this aspect.

"So... about your matter, what do you think?"

"..."

Agather fell silent.

"I can't deny the emotion that's rippling in my heart."

"..."

Hearing this, Gloria's heart sank.

She doesn't really like this kind of unfolding, she doesn't want her friend to suddenly mix with other beings.

She is a giant girl born in Jotunheim, even if she is a witch, it should be the witch Eggers, not someone else.

"But I know better who the person by my side is, Gloria, don't think how fragile I am."

"..."

Listening to Eggers' response, Gloria just sighed slightly.

"Well, I underestimated you, it's just..."

"what?"

For a moment, she hesitated.

There were some things she didn't want to say, but driven by a certain sense of guilt in her heart, she spoke again:

"Don't you feel angry about it?"

The moment the words came out, she suddenly felt that she should be more cautious.

Regardless of tone or words, Gloria subconsciously began to consider:

"Haven't you thought about that?"

"what?"

"It's just feelings... Have you ever thought that if it weren't for that kind of influence, you might not have any intersection with Utgarde, which means... That is, your feelings for him may not be pure from the beginning Woolen cloth."

The moment she finished speaking, Gloria lowered her head.

She should have avoided these topics, but she just wanted to talk about them.

Even though she knew it was a flash point, even though she knew it might end what seemed to be a thaw between them, she said it anyway.

No, to a certain extent, this kind of development is actually what she wanted.

Gloria realized the self-loathing deep in her heart.

Is it really suitable for me to be friends with a girl like Eggers?

Are you really qualified to be friends with her?

Such doubts lingered in her mind like this, unable to dissipate.

In the end, she made the most extreme choice.

After saying those words, he completely gave up the so-called dominance.

If she is angry because of this, it means that this nearly ten thousand years of friendship is over.

Yes, this means that he is not worthy of being friends with her.

But what if she wasn't angry?

"Maybe."

Although Gloria heard the sound of heavy breathing several times, Eggerse's mood fluctuated obviously, but she finally recovered that kind of calm.

"However, it doesn't matter whether it's pure or not, because I don't regret it."

Such a voice lingered in her ears.

This is the announcement from Eggers, and it is also her summary of that relationship.

"I've never regretted it."

"Even now?"

Gloria couldn't help asking.

She raised her head subconsciously, and what she saw was that pure but resolute gaze.

"Even now."

She gave her own answer without any hesitation.

Facing Gloian's hesitant gaze, Eggers gently stroked his heart.

"Although I have doubts, and even though I know that Utgard is hiding something from me, I am very happy... No, during the time I was with him, I have always been very happy."

Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen: The Gap Between Things and People

Eggers' voice was not loud, but it echoed like a bell in Gloya's ears.

Her words were extremely simple, but these words opened Gloya's own memory like a beacon.

Although it is necessary to trace its origin, it is actually a bit far away.

For giants with long and long lives, their own cognition and life are like a thick and heavy book.

They have always existed, but it is not an easy task to open this heavy book.

For some giants who don't like to organize their thoughts, maybe just a dozen years can mess up their heads.

However, Gloria is different.

She has been subconsciously putting 'labels' on the memories and memories in her mind one after another.

Like stuffing a bookmark into a thick book,
