Because it's not far from the table.
A white-haired girl with a stunningly beautiful face and crystal-clear complexion, dressed in light-colored pajamas, sat in a wheelchair. Her pupils had a faint purple halo, and she calmly watched the three people who walked in one after another.
The person in a vegetative state has woken up...
For a moment, the entire hall fell into a deathly silence.
A few seconds later, Adele carefully stepped forward and put her arm around Elune's shoulder, but the movement was very gentle, as if she was afraid of hurting Elune's weak body that had just woken up.
"Sister, I'm sorry to have worried you..."
Elune spoke softly.
Adele remained silent, holding Elune's body for a full half minute before she came to her senses.
She forced back her almost tearful excitement and bittersweet emotions as she stood up, then glanced at the little swordsman and Weiss who were still standing there in a daze.
“Um, Elune, this is your cousin, Cassandra Lunette. You should have heard of her a few years ago.”
"And then, this is..."
When talking about Weiss...
Adele suddenly got stuck.
A subtle embarrassment appeared on her face, and for a moment she didn't know how to explain it.
They couldn't just bluntly say that they and Aunt Bai were both having a mental breakdown at the same time, and that they found her a drug addict husband while she was unconscious, could they?
I don't know if Elune, who is still 14 years old, can accept this.
Although Weiss is now the sixth seat of the Ten Kings and the one who reached the top of the Snow Palace Trial, he is definitely worthy of the status of the Serenes family. However, he is still just a stranger to Elune who has just awakened.
However......
After much deliberation and inner turmoil, Adele quickly came to her senses.
It seems that I'm the only one feeling awkward right now.
In contrast, Weiss and Elune were like an old married couple who had been together for many years, both looking at each other with calm and collected expressions.
It's unclear how long Elune will remain awake this time.
Although she had experienced several instances of her body coming back to life in the middle of the night.
But this was the first time I'd ever gotten out of bed...
For some reason, as Weiss was thinking, he felt that Elune's gaze towards him was somewhat subtle.
To be fair, before this, as his wife, Elune had always been quite satisfied with Weiss's appearance and character, and had already regarded him as her possession.
But never before have I experienced such a tremendous emotional fluctuation after reading someone's mind.
So, would a man who is indifferent to worldly affairs, does whatever he wants, and lives a carefree life, one day stand in front of a legendary hero for the sake of his wife?
That door was simply...
So cool!!!
Chapter 121: Elune Awake [8K]
Under Adele's somewhat bewildered gaze, Weiss and Elune stared at each other for nearly half a minute, separated by a distance of about half a living room.
Both of them had calm expressions, neither awkward nor sweet, but rather a strange and subtle feeling.
I have absolutely no idea how to describe it.
By the way, how long has Elune been awake?
Did Aunt Bai give her any important information beforehand?
Thinking of this, Adele and Aunt White began to exchange knowing glances.
After a long period of bickering between the two, Adele finally realized that the cat's face was completely expressionless. She shook her head helplessly and then forced herself to explain.
“Elune, this gentleman is Weiss, um…”
"Sister, Aunt Bai has already told me that this Mr. Weiss is my husband, right?"
Elune's expression was gentle as water, and her purple eyes blinked calmly a few times.
There wasn't a trace of shame or embarrassment in him.
Then, after only a few seconds of pause, her next sentence immediately broke the tension for everyone present.
"Although I have now awakened, I have been asleep for two years and my body is still somewhat weak. If Mr. Vegetarian wants to try eating a person in a vegetative state, I'm afraid we will have to wait a while longer."
"..."
"..."
No, what is this person in a vegetative state saying to Adele?
It seems to be lacking in photosynthesis.
Weiss almost lost control of his facial expressions for a moment.
But just because he held his nerve doesn't mean others can.
Several maids responsible for serving tea and water had their teapots and porcelain cups smash to pieces on the floor. They hurriedly squatted down and frantically began cleaning up, instantly making the already delicate atmosphere extremely awkward.
A few seconds later, Adele coughed heavily a few times, forcibly concealing her unusual expression, and walked to the back of Elune's wheelchair as quickly as possible.
"Well then, I'll take Elune back to her room first. After all, it's been two years since we last spoke..."
"Weis, could you please explain to Aunt Bai what happened tonight?"
As Adele finished speaking.
She immediately pushed Elune's wheelchair and fled the hall at top speed.
Only the two people, the cat, and the numerous maids remained in the hall, staring at each other in bewilderment.
A moment later, Aunt Bai, realizing what was happening, looked at Weiss and the Little Sword Saint with a suspicious gaze.
"So, could you summarize what happened tonight in the simplest and most straightforward sentence?"
"this......"
The young swordsman hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.
Summarize it in one sentence?
Heroes, can they fly...?
Just then, Weiss calmly made a suggestion.
“Miss Cassandra, you must have some matters to attend to, right? Could you please allow me to stay and explain to Aunt Bai…?”
"You're making it sound so mysterious, fine, I don't want to hear it~~~"
Cassandra glanced at him expressionlessly, and without any coquettishness, turned and walked towards the study.
Just as she brushed past Weiss, she whispered in his ear, her tone neither warm nor cold, "Congratulations, Mr. Weiss, your wife has woken up. Looks like you're about to enjoy some good fortune~~~"
Weiss: ......
Vegetarian and vegetative state are both green and healthy terms.
But in their minds, each one is more lewd than the last.
After watching the little swordsman's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, Weiss shook his head helplessly. Then he led Aunt Bai out of Lunette's mansion hall and into the small garden.
Bathed in the tranquil moonlight, Weiss casually sat down on a deck chair.
"Aunt Bai, how long has Elune been awake?"
"Actually, I've only been awake for about two hours..." Aunt Bai replied, gently wagging her tail.
Two hours?
Such a coincidence?
Weiss frowned slightly.
It seems to coincide with the time when the hero awakens...?
"Weiss, what exactly happened? That series of commotion just now was definitely not something an ordinary Tier 6 superhuman could do, right...?"
"I seemed to vaguely see some kind of incredible image."
"As far as I know, only one forbidden object can accomplish this!!"
Faced with Aunt Bai's barely concealed anxiety.
After considering for a moment, Weiss slowly began to explain:
"That's right, that was the commotion caused by Radiance like myself..."
"The legendary hero has been resurrected."
"After his resurrection, that hero will patrol the royal city at night to cause trouble for the Seven Wonders, the Moon, and the Snow—"
"Then, he was blown away by the Moon Thunder Emperor, who held the North Wind in his hand, with a single fan."
"..."
"..."
To be honest, Adele's prediction was completely wrong, absolutely wrong!!!
Even if Aunt White is just a tiny Hakimi, she can still make extremely rich and complex expressions of shock.
After being shocked for several minutes, Aunt Bai slowly raised her head and looked at Weiss with an extremely incredulous and horrified expression.
"This is a first-person perspective explanation that absolutely cannot be told to outsiders, right?" As she said this, Aunt Bai's eyes were filled with a complex mix of amazement and admiration.
"More or less..." Weiss nodded.
"Well then, Aunt Bai, I also have a question that I'd like you to answer for me."
"Suppose that the hero did indeed arrive in the royal city successfully, and hadn't been stopped by the Moon Empress, would she have gone to the Lunette family mansion before climbing the Snow Palace Trial—?"
"..."
"..."
After these words were spoken, all was silent.
The atmosphere under the moonlight was extremely silent.
Aunt Bai remained silent for a long time, and then without saying anything, she simply stretched out her fluffy, snow-white cat paw and casually scratched Weiss's palm a few times.
The meaning is self-evident.
At that moment, Weiss understood.
He slowly opened his mouth and exhaled a breath of stale air.
Having witnessed the end of the Snow Palace and the resurrection of heroes in the past month, he now has a pretty good idea of what level of fault line exists at the pinnacle of the extraordinary in this world.
If my guess was correct, then Aunt Bai's actions were indeed without fault...
No wonder she kept it from Adele.
Because all the ultimate powerhouses that Weiss has seen so far are related to conquest, with the most direct and direct combat power and sense of oppression.
No one knows how bizarre and mysterious the abilities of those at the pinnacle of the extravagant system are. In any case, this is definitely not a truth that they can easily reveal with their current strength.
No wonder the progress of the World Book increased so dramatically back in Moonlit City when I first visited the Serenis family.
One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
The moon...?
It seems that with my current strength, it's far from enough to expect to be able to rest easy.
Nevertheless, Weiss did not feel any sense of urgency.
The bow of the ship and the bridgehead will naturally be straight.
...
Early in the morning, before the sun had fully risen, Adele had already changed into her signature black military uniform and was hurrying toward the mansion's main gate.
It seems the warlord's unit has suddenly fallen seriously ill, and he must rush back to the night patrol headquarters to handle the aftermath...
At this moment, Weiss was holding Aunt Bai, who was still fast asleep, in his arms. He was sitting on the deck chair in the small garden, lost in thought. He caught a glimpse of a hurried golden figure out of the corner of his eye and immediately called her back.
