"...Wife? No, no, I'm just responsible for being the finger witch next to the Faded One, not his wife."

"Huh? Is that so? But Mr. Faded One said you are his wife."

After Fujiwara Chika lightly picked up the drink and took a sip to moisten her throat, she said again: "And Mr. Faded has been thinking of various ways to save you, and even thought of pulling Sister Zi to become the salary king."

"Right, sister Zi."

"Ah, Chika-chan, there are so many delicious things that can't stop your mouth?"

There was a smirk on Yakumo Zi's face, and his face became as black as the bottom of a pot.

I don't know if I should say mmp or not.

It really is a pot that cannot be opened without mentioning.

"..."

After hearing what she just said, Melina fell into a brief silence.

Also picked up the cup, took a sip, suppressed the turbulent thoughts, and looked at Chika Fujiwara seriously.

"...Miss Fujiwara, can you tell me about this in detail?"

She was curious.

Really curious.

From the first meeting, she felt a little strange.

The words and deeds of this faded person are sometimes inexplicably weird, and the time on the Weeping Peninsula made her even more confused.

What exactly did he mean?

Why do you show that expression?

Why do faded people have an inexplicable persistence every time they come into contact with themselves?

She wanted to know.

But there is no way to start.

"This is..."

Chika Fujiwara's expression became awkward, and she couldn't help but look at Walnut on the main seat, and Walnut shook her head.

"Sorry, Miss Melina, I really don't know about the specifics. The fader never told us this in detail."

"Besides, Mr. Faded doesn't appear in the group very often. Every time he appears, apart from bickering with Sister Zi, he also broadcasts a live broadcast. He never tells us what he is going to do."

"am I right?"

pat!

Xiao Beibei, who was also sitting at this table, was enjoying her meal when she suddenly raised a sign in her hand with an emoji made of her own portrait on it.

That's it.jpg

This behavior is almost like a certain Elizabeth.

"..Really? I see, thank you Fujiwara-san."

"Ah, you don't have to be so polite, and I didn't help much..."

Melina's thanks made Chika Fujiwara tense and waved her hand quickly.

"It's over, I slipped my mouth..."

She didn't know the consequences of what she said to Melina.

If she knew that Melina didn't know about it at all, she wouldn't choose to say it.

But now, it's too late.

"Tch, I didn't expect that Tin Woodman to be such an infatuated person."

When the dinner table was silent, Paimon suddenly said this, but Ying pulled him down and hugged him in her arms.

"Paimon, stop talking."

However, precisely because of this sentence, the dignified atmosphere at the dinner table became more relaxed.

"Hey, that's right. Although I don't know much about love and love, this hall master can also tell that Mr. Faded is such an infatuated person."

Walnut supported his head, tapped the plate lightly with his chopsticks, and looked at Melina with a smile in his eyes:

"So Sister Mei, no matter what happens, don't choose to leave Mr. Faded One. If you leave his side, I'm afraid you will be very sad."

"Ah, little sister Walnut, you think of faders too beautifully."

Yakumo Zi said with an untimely joke:

"Let's not talk about whether he has been entangled with other women, but he has a pile of ashes of women, and he loves him very much."

"Sister Zi, if Mr. Fade hears what you say, I'm afraid you will suffer again..."

Fujiwara Chika's friendly reminder made Yakumo Zi's face darken a bit.

"..."

Melina turned a deaf ear to their subsequent discussion, just staring blankly at the clean plates on the table, not knowing what she was thinking...

88. Promise under the night sky

That night.

When the lanterns came on, the banquet dispersed and everyone left one after another.

"call--"

Looking at the pitch-black night sky, Faded Man couldn't help but make a sound of relief.

He who still stays in this world came here after sending Qiqi back to Bubulu, sitting on the top of this unknown mountain, admiring the bright stars in the sky with Melina.

Although the stars in the junction are more beautiful, the starry sky is so beautiful that it is unreal, and it is full of danger.

Especially the huge full moon that never changed from ancient times, like an eye, always watching the junction, watching him.

Unlike here, it is beautiful and peaceful, making people feel comfortable.

At least for a moment, it would keep him away from killing.

"Miss Melina, what do you think of this trip to another world? Are you happy?"

The faded person, who gradually relaxed physically and mentally, turned his head to look at Melina who was staring blankly at the night sky, and suddenly asked this question.

This also caught Melina a little off guard. After a long time, she answered:

"...I'm very happy. This is the first time I've been to a place outside the border area. I didn't expect it to be so beautiful and peaceful."

"And the local people are also very friendly... If the border area is as peaceful as this, without disputes, and life and death are orderly, that would be great."

Looking at the starry sky in the distance, Melina expressed such emotion.

These are words from her heart.

Melina has been watching the border for a long time. She has seen countless disputes and killings, the rise of countless forces, and the fall of those forces.

From the prosperity of the Round Table Hall to its decline to what it is now, she was a witness.

Therefore, her biggest wish is that there is such a person who can repair this broken world and make death come equally.

For this reason, she did not hesitate to violate the Golden Law and has been looking for such a person.

now...

This person was right in front of her eyes.

She was convinced of this, because she felt different from other people in this faded person.

It's just that the faded man secretly laughed when he saw Melina like this.

In fact, this world is not as peaceful as it seems. At least it has experienced magnificent wars.

According to Zhong Li, that war was called the Demon God War.

Many demon gods kill and compete with each other, just like a broken war.

At the end of the battle of many demon gods, only the seven gods are left to manage the world, and they can get this temporary peace.

Although the same undercurrent is surging, it is much better than the current junction.

However, he didn't mean to point it out, and he didn't want to spoil the good impression of his wife Melina on this land.

Perhaps, next time, we can take Lani’s wife, Melina and the three of us to go shopping in other places and experience the charm of other different worlds.

"...Your friends are also very good. Miss Fujiwara, Miss Beita, and Miss Kurumi. They are all very good people."

"It's just that Miss Yakumo seems to have some objections to you."

"Yakumo Zi? What did she say to you?"

As soon as he heard the name, he suddenly felt bad.

This old woman's stomach is full of bad water, and she is either making troubles or on the way to make troubles all day long.

"...No, she didn't say anything, she just said that most of the ashes around you are women, and they love you very much."

"In my opinion, this is a good thing. At least it shows that you have the qualifications to be a king."

"yes...."

The faded person scratched his head embarrassingly. He was indeed a little embarrassed to be praised by the eldest wife, but he was also a little proud.

This was the first time he heard Melina's praise.

For him, no matter how beautiful other people's compliments are, his compliments can't compare to a compliment from Melina and Lani.

At least this proves that his efforts were not in vain.

At the same time, I was thinking about Yakumo Zi in my heart.

It seems that the severe beating before was indeed a mild one...

As he was thinking, Melina suddenly said, "...Fade, can I ask you a question?"

"Question? Ask."

"...Well, I want to know why you want to save me, fader. I am just a dead person now, and I don't understand why you are so obsessed with saving me."

Speaking of this, Melina's voice paused, and she turned her head slightly, her single golden pupil revealed seriousness:

"You seem to be very familiar with me from the first time we met. Can you tell me why?"

She thought about this matter for a long time, even at the banquet.

But no matter how she thought about it, she couldn't think of a reason at all.

It was indeed the first time she met him.

But why does he seem to know everything about himself so well?

Why did you say those words?

These questions kept lingering in her heart, and it was the first time she felt depressed.

"So you already know..."

Hearing Melina's question, he smiled with relief: "But I'm sorry, I can't tell you about this, at least not yet."

Then he set his gaze in the distance and said as if talking to himself: "But, as I said before."

"Now, Melina, you are my finger witch, and I am also the one I love deeply."

He turned around again, met Melina's gaze, and stared at her seriously: "So, there is one thing I can tell you."

"For you (Lani, and that unknown witch), I am willing to become the king of Elden, and I am willing to change everything in the borderland."

"..."

Melina fell into a brief silence upon hearing this.

Can't you say...

Then he raised his head and stared at him, a faint smile appeared on his pretty face:
