Type-Moon, I'm a magician, is that true?

Abandoning the reserved appearance he maintained, Elquet took a big step forward, grabbed Aiwen's arm tightly, and waved it up and down continuously.

She was literally glowing with joy.

"With your help, there's nothing to worry about. Maybe this time we can find a way to get rid of that pesky snake!"

In her joy, Elquet had a childishness that matched her appearance. Her smile was so dazzling that it made people doubt whether she had really given an answer that satisfied her so much.

But there is no point in saying anything extra. The smile in front of me is real, and it is enough to just confirm this.

Aiwen recalled the dead expression on Elquet's face when they first met, and compared it with her current silly smile, he felt more and more that his decision to kill her was right.

Elquet was by no means a ruthless weapon by nature; it was just that no harsh facts could shock her.

With just a little miraculous opportunity, the emotional fire in her heart will be ignited.

"Ahem, very good. I'm glad you agreed. This way, the guilt between us is wiped out. Please treat me normally."

As if realizing that his reaction was too excessive, Elquet quickly adjusted his expression and delivered his conclusion in a dignified and polite manner.

But she seemed to have forgotten that humans are not single-threaded creatures, and the previous impression of her being lively and active was too deep to be erased.

Moreover, when Aiwen looked at Elquet, who had returned to his noble temperament, he could not suppress the doubt in his heart.

"Arquette, why are you younger than you were then?"

Yes, Aiwen discovered this problem at the first sight when they met. Compared with the woman in the impression of wearing a noble dress and with a beautiful figure, the current Elquet is obviously much younger.

She is probably only fourteen or fifteen years old. It is too young to say that she is young, and she is also a little far from adulthood. After thinking about it, I can only describe her as a girl.

"Ah, this question?" Elquet gracefully stroked the white dress she was wearing, her expression calm.

"It can't be helped. You and I first met about twenty years in the future, but this meeting and conversation took place in the past."

"Time has no meaning in the inner sea of stars, but returning to the past is very difficult. The direction of the body and mind going back to the past is uncontrollable."

"If I saw you again decades later, my personality might be different."

The young girl Elquet solemnly recalled her possible future, and then denied her future self with a look of sorrow.

"But that kind of look is really rude and too unruly. It's a blessing for me to be able to meet you with my current personality."

Elquet, who spoke so passionately, did not realize that she was now much more lively than her original personality, and the word cute was probably inevitable.

The noble and polite demeanor of a girl will gradually drift away from Elquet and will never be recovered.

"But I don't know your name yet, magician." The girl Elquet suddenly turned around and looked at Aiwen seriously, with a warm expectation in her eyes.

"I've already told you my name. As a sign of respect, you should also state yours. It's basic courtesy, right?"

"Or, you don't want to tell me?"

When she said the last sentence, Elquet's expression darkened, which was really heartbreaking. Could anyone really have the heart to reject her?

"Evindung." There was no hesitation. Exchanging names was not particularly difficult. "Evindung Euberel Oselheide, just Evin."

"Ah~~This name..."

Elquet blinked in confusion, wanting to say something, but swallowed the unnecessary words back into his heart.

To be honest, these were all trivial matters. Just knowing the name made her so happy, so happy that she wanted to jump for joy again.

"Aiwen, that's a good name, simple and smooth, I like it."

In the end, she couldn't help but say something rude, but Elquet didn't care at this moment.

Because she felt that her heart was so full of warmth that it was about to explode.

Chapter 82: I Like This Indifference

"Ta-ta, ta-ta."

On the deserted hill, the sound of happy footsteps never stopped. The royal etiquette was revealed, but Elquet was already a little tempted to ignore this restraint.

"Aiwen, um, Aiwen." She whispered the name they had exchanged, reluctant to let it go as if it were a treasure she had obtained for the first time.

"Is there a problem?"

Aiwen felt a little strange that the person behind him kept repeating his name so closely that he had to take the initiative to interrupt this strange repeater.

"If there's anything unnecessary, the answer is no." Elquet maintained a smile, expressing his joy without any scruples. "But now I want to do something unnecessary."

"It doesn't matter. Life is broad enough to accommodate some impulsive antics."

The affirmation from such a special person made Elquet overjoyed. She unconsciously reached out and grabbed Aiwen's sleeve, shaking it gently.

"I didn't know this before. Now that I think about it, I just existed, a simple system. I didn't actually have anything that belonged to me."

"But now it's different. I'm curious, so I'm going to ask questions, and Aiwen needs to answer me honestly."

"I will."

With this promise, Elquet felt at ease. She couldn't read the heart of the person in front of her, but she was willing to believe every word he said.

"Then why did you agree to my request without even asking who it was? What if the person you want to kill is someone great to you humans?"

"Humans and vampires are ultimately incompatible. Iven has his own perspective as a human, right?"

It was not a question of whether one could achieve one's goal, but a worry about Aiwen's inner heart. As Elquet said, she was exploring something unnecessary.

"To fight against the ancestor of the Dead Apostles for your compatriots, Aiwen is definitely considered a good person in today's society. Not to mention that you prioritized protecting other victims at the time."

"That's different from the church, which those annoying ignorant people will mostly ignore as a necessary sacrifice."

"If you do something against your will to take responsibility, you will end up hurting yourself and regret it later."

This is an irrational statement. Pointing out the contradiction will not help Elquet's purpose, but will instead cause twists and turns in the agreement that has been reached.

But the "extra" she had finally obtained told her that this was a detail that could not be ignored.

"Good humans? Maybe."

Aiwen didn't know what he felt at the moment, but he understood one thing, that is, Elquet had misunderstood him.

"But the reason for my actions is somewhat different from what is considered kindness in the conventional sense."

Yes, this must be a huge misunderstanding. From the very beginning, the image that others expect does not exist.

"Elquet, I don't have any stance. I treat humans and non-humans equally. I have never been on either side."

It's like sticking your hand into the mud in your heart, turning it over and exposing it to the sun while analyzing your own thoughts. It feels both refreshing and difficult.

"In my eyes, no one's life is more valuable than others. Human death is just a part of the world. What drives my actions is not kindness, but my own preferences."

"...I don't understand." The girl Elquet looked at Aiwen with overly innocent eyes and expressed her confusion bluntly.

"Is it really not possible to not speak frankly?"

Aiwen sighed. This was the first time he told others about his true nature. Even Youzhu and Qingzi didn't know it.

"I hunt Dead Apostles not to protect anyone, but to vent my disgust for them; I rescue humans not out of morality or kindness, but because I hate the sight of misery."

"To some extent, I'm no different from a vampire. We're both violent beings who live solely on our own preferences. It's just that my preferences are closer to the kind side that ordinary people recognize."

"I'm a selfish person who doesn't care about others. I only do things to make myself feel good. If I indulge in chaos, the consequences will be worse than those of a vampire."

"So, Elquet, your worries are unnecessary. I don't enjoy killing, but I don't feel burdened either. Life is precious, but also fragile."

From the perspective of indifference and indifference, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is cold and cruel. Aiwen has the intellect to distinguish his own position, but he actively abandons it.

"So, Ewen, while you don't care about the overall competition among species, you do care about the individual in front of you?"

Contrary to what he expected, Elquet saw something truly brilliant hidden beneath the words of Ewen.

"Yeah! That's no problem. Even if Aiwen denies herself so much, she's still a warm person. I like that."

Very strange.

Aiwen suspected that Elquet's auditory system was different from that of ordinary people. How did she come to this conclusion?

But seeing her smiling face, there was no need to refute anything else. Feeling happy is certainly a good thing.

Aiwen seemed to be infected by her smile and also smiled slightly.

The first question was resolved, but Elquet was obviously not satisfied yet.

"Another question then."

Elquet pointed to the slope where the two of them had been walking foolishly for a long time and said, "Why don't we go somewhere else?"

Although the environment is the same everywhere as long as she can chat with Aiwen, she still wants to see more new scenes.

"Because I'm waiting for Aozaki to come to her senses. I can't just walk away and make her anxious again."

She and I have an agreement to hold a study session together, and Aiwen particularly emphasized this point.

"Aozaki? Is she the woman who just ran away in a hurry?"

Elquet tried hard to recall the fragments of memory that were almost forgotten, and finally dug up someone's impression.

"Does she live in the house upstairs? If so, why not just go in? Why wait for her to come back? Even for efficiency reasons, she shouldn't be wandering around outside."

"...If it's just me, I can do that, but it's different if we bring Elquet along. Kuonji will be angry. She values the mansion the most and won't let strangers get close to it."

"Kyuonji? Ah, so that's the name of that mysterious witch."

Elquet recalled how she had politely knocked on the door but was refused entry, and the look of disgust that the other party had shown from beginning to end, and nodded in sympathy.

"Indeed, one can tell at a glance that she is quite narrow-minded even among humans. It's a relief that you, Aiwen, can talk to her."

"Have you already seen Kuonji?"

"Of course, I smelled Aiwen's scent in that house, so I came to look for you, but the witch said she would not let me go in no matter what."

Having said that, Elquet seemed to recall the humiliation she had suffered at that time. She couldn't help but clench her fists in front of her chest, eager to try.

"A vampire who can't enter the house without your consent?"

"I'm a vampire without that attribute. I could definitely get in using force, but I didn't want to destroy Aiwen's place, so I held back."

Are we going again now? Elquet's expression suggested this.

"No, it still counts..."

—"Ewen, get out of there!"

Before she could say no, she heard a familiar cry from behind her, her voice trembling as if she had seen Godzilla.

When he turned around, he found it a hilarious scene. Aoko's half body was huddled behind the corner, with only one arm that was preparing a magic bullet and two eyes that were peeping in.

And below her chest, Youzhu also took the same action as Qingzi, and stared at her with her eyes.

The overlapping figures of the two people look a bit like a snowman baby in winter, with an unexpected harmony in the weirdness.

"Come here quickly, what are you daydreaming about?"

Qingzi called out as quietly as possible, although she knew that this was just an act of self-deception.

But there was no other way. She couldn't just abandon Aiwen, so even though she knew it was dangerous, she had to come out. But she ended up seeing that guy chatting and laughing with the source of danger.

"I'm impressed. Can that face really add so much favorability? That girl I just met looks like we're almost stuck together."

Qingzi muttered with a look of disgust, and her words made Youzhu below her nod.

"But Yuzhu, the description doesn't match at all. She seems very easy to get along with and not dangerous at all."

Recalling what Youzhu said about the noble, cold, and imposing demonic monster, and comparing it with the girl in front of her, Qingzi just felt that Youzhu was deliberately talking nonsense because he hated her.

Chapter 83 The First Meeting Between the Two Parties

"Are you playing hide-and-seek? From what I understand, human children love this game, but isn't it a little too nostalgic for them?"
