Hate Me, Miss Witch!

Chapter 225 Augustina: Loser? That's it! (5k)

Abyss, bottom of the abyss.

City of Snow.

Outside the dark palace door, Liliana knocked on the heavy and simple door with a thick file in her hand.

"Come in, Lily."

An elegant and pleasant voice sounded behind the door.

After getting the answer, the gray elf girl held the file and walked into the palace shrouded in a hazy night.

"Leader, you said you wanted to retreat a few days ago, so I blocked the central area and didn't let anyone approach the Palace of Night..."

"These are the summaries and memos of the events that happened in the City of Snow during your retreat. They are all recorded here for your review."

Liliana put the file in her hand on the square table in the center of the palace.

"Don't worry too much about the rest, they are just trivial matters."

"The elves have lived in the abyss for hundreds of years, and those daily affairs can be handled by themselves, so there is no need for you, the leader, to come out in person."

"The only unusual thing."

"The glaciers and snow fields around the City of Wind and Snow, which seemed to have existed forever, have all begun to melt."

"At first... the elves thought that this was just a slight change in the environment inside the abyss, and it would soon subside, but no one expected... the melting of the glaciers has lasted for half a year."

"According to the feedback from the patrollers who went out, the glacier at the highest point of the snow mountain has melted into a waterfall thousands of feet long."

Liliana said respectfully while sorting out the files in her hand.

"If such changes continue..."

The gray elf girl couldn't help but smile: "It may not take many years for the City of Wind and Snow where we live to change its name."

The so-called City of Wind and Snow, without the endless ice fields and blizzards, how can it be called such a name.

Of course, such changes are definitely not a bad thing for Liliana or the elves in the Snow Wind City.

The pure white snowfield and the glaciers that never melt have their own unique beauty.

But no matter how beautiful the glacier scenery is, if you look at it for decades or hundreds of years, you will inevitably get tired and boring.

Just like people living on the fertile plains will regard the appreciation of the frontier scenery as a pleasant trip... the residents living on the snowfield will naturally fantasize about the arrival of spring and flowers all the time, and want to live in a warm and fragrant area with birds singing and flowers blooming.

Compared with those elves who know nothing and regard the changes in the surrounding environment as changes in the environment inside the abyss.

As the leader is closest to her and can even be said to be her confidant to some extent, Liliana knows more.

The recent changes in the environment and the melting of glaciers.

Even - the formation of this snowfield and the birth of the Snow Wind City.

All of this, in fact, is not the natural change that many residents imagine...

but, it is just because of one person.

"Leader."

Liliana hesitated for a moment, and after a long time, she spoke carefully.

"If I am not mistaken..."

"These things... should be inseparable from him, right?"

As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at the black-dressed girl on the throne of the night.

However, just a moment later, Liliana was stunned.

On the high throne, the black-dressed girl was actually smiling.

Her smile was very slight, just a tiny arc on her flawless face.

If Liliana had not been with the leader for hundreds of years and was very familiar with the black-dressed girl, she would probably not even notice it at this moment.

However, it was precisely because of this that Liliana was quite surprised.

For a long time, this girl in black dress has been covered with a filter in the eyes of Liliana and the elves in the entire Snow Wind City.

She is powerful, mysterious, and supreme.

It is as if Liliana accidentally heard the leader mention her other name... the queen who rules the night.

And all along, the image she showed in front of outsiders is worthy of this name, mysterious and supreme.

The majesty hidden behind the night makes most of the elders in the Snow Wind City Elf Council fear her, so they entrusted the communication with the leader to Liliana alone.

But at this moment.

The mysterious image of the Queen of the Night has been broken for the first time.

Since she chose to follow the leader, this is the first time Liliana has seen the other party smile like this.

It is not very obvious, but it is a joy from the heart, perhaps even the leader himself has not noticed it.

"Leader..."

"Has anything good happened recently?"

Liliana's curiosity surged like a tide, and she could no longer suppress it.

Perhaps it was just like the casual conversation between Sister Hathaway and the human boy that she overheard a long time ago.

Gossip is the instinct of every intelligent creature.

"Good news?"

On the throne, the girl in the black dress was clearly looking through the files submitted by Liliana.

But when he heard Liliana's words, he was slightly stunned.

After a moment, she lightly covered her mouth as if casually.

"Why do you say that?"

Leader, leader.

You can hardly hide the raised corners of your mouth, and you still want to ask me why.

The gray elf expressed such complaints in his heart.

However, complaints in her heart are complaints, but Liliana will naturally not express her true thoughts directly.

If people don't seek death, they won't die.

Elves are no exception.

"It's nothing, just some speculation."

"I always feel that the changes happening outside the Snow Wind City are related to that person."

"Oh? Which one?"

On the throne shrouded in the night, a cunning color suddenly flashed through the beautiful eyes of the girl in black dress that seemed to be covered with a thin layer of shadow.

"Forehead……"

Liliana paused, and finally spoke reluctantly: "It's the human named Char who you said before, who you have been unrequitedly in love with."

While saying these words, Liliana already secretly regretted it in her heart.

Why do I have to be so arrogant and insist on gossiping about things that have nothing to do with me.

Well, actually it’s not irrelevant…

After all, this is directly related to the lifelong event of his leader.

Moreover, she is also involved with sister Hathaway.

Although they have not seen each other for hundreds of years, Liliana is still very grateful to the golden elf elder who took care of herself and the gray elves.

But no matter what.

Even though the leader had said it before, it was just her unrequited love, yet she still refused to open the pot...

Anyone who is mentioned by his subordinates about such an unrequited love that is destined to be fruitless will probably not be in a very happy mood.

Although with the character of a leader, he would never directly punish or punish him.

But after following her leader for so many years, Liliana also knew in her heart that although her leader seemed cold and mysterious on the outside, he was indifferent to everything.

However, a real leader actually has a hidden dark side inside.

The scars were exposed by gossiping subordinates... Even if he didn't say it, he might be assigned a hard job at some point.

Just like being arranged to go to the intersection of the abyss and the main material plane to detect intelligence.

However, even though Liliana was mentally prepared.

But, the next moment.

The words of the girl in black skirt made her slightly stunned.

"That's not the case, Lily."

"The changes in Snow Wind City are indeed related to Xia Ya."

"I did say it before... I have always expressed my unrequited love for him, which is almost like a loser."

"However, that is completely in the past tense."

In her eyes, the shadow that seemed like eternal night slowly faded away.

The real eyes were revealed.

It turned out to be pure red gold, carrying the nobility and majesty that seemed to be born to be above all spirits, but at this moment it was shining again.

There are intense and complex emotions emerging from it.

There is nostalgia, the sadness and dissatisfaction of not being able to keep it to yourself, and also the joy of getting what you want.

But all in all, I am more happy than sad.

"Now, I am no longer the poor guy who loved him unrequitedly."

"But I got his personal promise... I can openly declare to the whole world that I am his lover."

Hearing the words of his leader who were half-hearted but also half-hearted.

Liliana's pupils were shaking.

when?

The leader has only been in seclusion for half a year, and yet such a big thing happened?

In other words, is the life-long event of our leader finally coming to fruition?

While she was happy that her leader finally got rid of his status as a loser, Liliana suddenly had another thought in her heart.

If this is the case...then what will sister Hathaway do?

She couldn't help but recall the memory of when she was a child, when the lost island was still floating on the vast ocean and had not fallen into the abyss.

There is also the golden elf who smiles brightly because he can stay by Char's side.

If our leader changes from loser to winner, then sister Hathaway will become a new loser?

What is the conservation law of the groove's characteristics?

"It's not what you think."

As if seeing through Liliana's thoughts, the clear voice echoed again.

"He's a pretty greedy guy."

"While recognizing and accepting me, it does not mean that he will give up other things that have been caught in his hands... I have never dared to have such extravagant hopes."

In the eyes of the girl in black dress, the sadness that had been covered up by joy slightly emerged.

"To be precise, my position in his heart at this moment."

"Probably, it's still not comparable to that golden elf."

"What a cunning and lucky person, Hathaway..."

The girl in the black dress murmured silently.

"At such an early time, when he had not even fully grown up, I was lucky enough to meet him and enter his life as a teacher."

"Such a first-mover advantage, no matter how hard the latecomers try, they may not be able to fully make up for it."

"Even strictly speaking, the motivation for him to come to the First Era is entirely because of you..."

"The fact that I was able to enter the abyss, meet him, and stay with him is all because of you."

"However, being behind for a short time...doesn't mean that I will always be behind you."

The girl in the black dress chuckled.

"Just like he said."

"There has never been a reason why Qingmei cannot be defeated by someone from heaven."

"Eternal companionship and waiting...who hasn't experienced it yet?"

The girl in black skirt whispered so softly, but Liliana did not hear it.

In a very short moment, she regained her previous gaffe.

The thin darkness of night once again shrouded the red gold dragon eyes that were briefly revealed because of the joy in his heart.

She looked at the gray elf in front of her again, and then spoke calmly.

"Go back first, Lily."

"You are right, at this moment, good things are about to happen."

"Not only his good deeds, but also my good deeds..."

"At the same time, it is also a good thing for the entire Snow Wind City and the entire elves."

Those eyes covered by the night slightly scanned the entire city outside the dark hall.

"This abyss is darker and deeper."

"However, it can't hold him back."

"Since he likes his master so much, then naturally the lost island left by his master should not be sealed in this lonely world."

The meaning of leader——

It's saying...

We can finally leave the abyss.

Returning to the main material plane, truly returning to the light?

Liliana's heart suddenly shook.

She forcibly suppressed the surging emotions in her heart, responded respectfully, and then exited the palace.

This is really a thing...

Incredible good thing.

…

Inside the Palace of Night.

With Liliana's departure, silence returned here again.

Augustina stared out the window in silence, the light flowing in her eyes never dissipating for a long time, like a sea of ​​dim yellow stars.

She took a breath and felt the joy spreading in her heart.

Even though many days had passed, the promise and confession that the young man made to her in the dream that was illusory but no different from reality still lingered in her heart all the time.

Augustina felt that her spiritual world was warm and washed by the wave of happiness that finally got what she wanted.

This happiness and joy is so beautiful.

As a result, the Queen of the Night, who has been in a high position for a long time and has long been accustomed to hiding her true feelings and never showing off her joy, is also a little impatient to share her joy at this moment.

And a certain unlucky gray elf was captured by her like this.

After a long time, the red-gold color surging in Augustina's eyes calmed down.

Then, her eyes moved slightly.

There was a silent ripple that spanned time and touched the ocean of her soul.

"Is it time?"

Ogutina stood up, and then walked step by step deeper into the dark hall.

The curtain composed of layers of shadows and darkness slowly opened in front of her.

And she just moved forward step by step with graceful steps.

Finally, he stopped in the deepest part of the palace.

On the frozen throne, the young man with black hair and black eyes was still leaning on the armrest with his hands, and seemed to be still asleep.

but--

at the same time.

In the astral field of vision observed by Ogutina with her throne-level personality.

But there is a huge and majestic mystery slowly gathering on the symbol of the young man's astral body.

That mysterious aura is deep and distant, as vast and majestic as a mountain.

On the inside of the world, the thin rules of the abyss plane made a creaking sound in front of it.

Then, cracks.

Although traveling through time is rare, it is not impossible.

Holy relics like the Holy Sword, the Hourglass of Time, or the power of some true gods can all do similar things under limited conditions.

However, traveling through holy relics often comes with considerable constraints.

For example, Augustina can use the holy relic "Hourglass of Time" she possesses to bring her will at the current time point into her body at the past time point.

However, the power she possesses in the future cannot be completely inherited in the time travel created by the Hourglass of Time, but only a part of it can be retained.

Another example is that Isadella traveled to Esgania at the end of the Third Age because of the test of the Holy Sword, but she also had the mission of "becoming the King of Knights"...

When the path Isadella chose deviated from the path of the glorious King of Knights and embarked on another astray, the Dream Zone was born.

If it hadn't been for Char's fight back then, even with the protection of the Holy Sword, Isadella, who had taken a different path in her dreams, would never have been able to return to reality unharmed.

At this moment, the human boy should have also encountered restrictions - the laws of the abyss do not allow too powerful future forces to come across time and space.

But then——

Click.

It was the sound of something breaking.

In the star realm, chains of nothingness roared and turned into fragments of rules and dissipated.

The rules and restrictions of the abyss were forcibly broken.

The next moment.

On the frozen throne.

The human boy who had been sleeping for hundreds of years without moving at all.

The fingers supporting the armrest suddenly moved slightly.

"Although I have done everything I should do in my dream."

"But no matter how realistic the dream I wove is, it is still different from reality."

"After all, I have not experienced those things, it is just a simple fantasy."

Augustina did not care about the wailing of the abyss rules being broken.

Her beautiful red-gold eyes flashed with nostalgia.

All her attention was focused on the boy in front of her.

"In reality, this is the first time we have done this."

"But, to be honest."

"For me now, no matter how many times I have done it, I still feel it is not enough."

"That is a debt of three whole eras. I am afraid it will never be filled."

She approached the frozen throne little by little like a kitten.

Then, when the boy on the throne opened his eyes.

She kissed him gently on the lips.

"Since you are talking about re-cultivating feelings, not between pets and beastmasters, but between lovers."

"Then, let's start from now."
