Dereliction of duty · 90 years in the new calendar

Xus: But seriously, why on earth are you so attached to the word "past"?

If you really want to go back, go to bed early.

—I hope you can achieve your dreams.

Zolf: Just nostalgia, what's wrong with nostalgia?

I like the old Xus who relied on me wholeheartedly.

Now this very assertive and handsome Xus, I love it too.

Xus: Who told you this... Ugh.

Now, it dawned on me.

Is your character too steady?It hasn't changed for decades.

Zolf: Are you complimenting me?

Xus: Not at all.

If you have a likable personality, that's fine.

Sticky and annoying, can you please give me a little chance to relax?

Zolf: Too bad, I'm sad.

Xus is really annoying, obviously he loves you so much.

I love you more every day than the day before, you are so cruel.

There shouldn't be that kind of person in this world who can't get goosebumps after hearing these words, and Xus is no exception.

Sometimes he'll be like this, and he'll just have a "why would I choose this guy" kind of thing.

Xus: Go away, stay away from me.

Tired to death.

Zolf: Oh.

Every time he failed to act coquettishly, he would show a very pitiful and hurt look.

At first Xus was soft-hearted occasionally, but he learned to just sit back and watch after a few more visits.

Even though he had hinted at those small stones just now, he actually intensified his nasty words... Xus could already imagine, at this moment, what kind of look his friend who was listening tens of thousands of miles away would show.

He promised verbally, but in reality he never left.

Xus: ...are you free?

Zolf: Very busy, busy looking at you.

Xus: Enough is enough—did you read something weird again?

He was a little panicked, but within two seconds he forcibly restrained himself and pretended to whistle, trying to act stupid.

Xus patted his stomach angrily, the soft but not bloated belly felt smooth and comfortable.

Xus: Where is Flood now?

Zolf: Should be home.

When I sent them back yesterday, they were all quite obedient.

Just don't say a word to each other.

Xus: If I "ask" him to come over now.

Do you think he will agree?

Zolf shook his head, looking helpless.

He blinked his eyes innocently, pinched Xus's face with his bandage-wrapped hands, and said with a smile:

Zolf: Did you expect him to agree today after doing such an outrageous thing yesterday?

——It's better to forcefully pull it over, anyway, it's not the first time.

Xus: That's right.

……

Hey, even if it's me, it won't be two days in a row... probably.

Not to mention that he really came up with such a plan just now, dating back to a long time ago, there are no less than ten or hundreds of cases of his own recklessness.

... Deserved it, the word popped into his mind.

Zolf: No way?

Who was that person who did not hesitate to blew himself up before and dragged others into the water?

Xus: Can you please stop talking about the "past"!

……

what.

He probably didn't expect that he would suddenly raise the volume, so he was caught off guard.

Because he was too close, he seemed to be stunned, and took half a step back in a daze.

Xus: ...

Leave me alone for a while.

I had something to say to "her", but after you messed it up like this, I almost forgot.

Zolf: Oh... oh.

The sound of closing the door was soft, but shocking enough.

Is this a quarrel?

Xus stretched his waist, thought about it, it doesn't count.

His quarrel with Zor would not be so peaceful and peaceful.

Xus: (What was the reason for the last fight?)

(It seems to be...wrong.)

(June this year...that doesn't count either.)

Having dealt with documents for decades, he would have dared to claim a clear mind.

There are many things that have confused him recently, including the way of doing things that he always thought was understandable.

Xus: ...

You heard it all?

In the center of the desk, a palm-sized white light circle leisurely lit up.

Its brightness is not high, similar to the fireflies on summer nights, it is to the extent that any random light will be covered.

? ? ? : - Thank you.

Your birthday wishes.

The voice heard through this method is slightly different from the one heard in person.

My friend is quite lazy, if her temperament has not changed, she should be slumped on the sofa at this point in time.

...It's noon here, but it should be night in her place.

Xus: Where did you start listening?

? ? ? :- I did some research.

Don't you have a strange spell there?

The one that consumes blood, there's someone named Sui, right?

Xus: Have you ever gotten into a fight with...someone, someone close?

The kind we just had is a cold war, right?

? ? ? : I also want to learn.

Maybe it will come in handy in the future.

Xus: I have always held the idea of ​​not interfering in other people's affairs casually.

However, what he did in the past few days really slapped himself several times.

——You, all, heard that, did you?

? ? ? :- If that Flood in your mouth is not dead yet.

I may have a way.

He tore off my spell a month ago, you know.

This kind of dialogue as if they were on two channels is the norm between them.
