Chapter 263

Elle hugged him, who was frozen.

"Question 301 of "Three Hundred Questions on Darkness"."

"What should you do if you see a future where you are separated and no longer needed, and you don't accept a future that is less and less like the past?"

She imitated Will's tone in "Three Hundred Questions about Darkness" and spoke in Will's ear.

"Me..."

"It will make time stay in the past."

——Winter——

Then, on the already sunny winter day, she exhaled white breath and her tail started to wag again.

"Winter is really coming, Master."

"It's so cold."

Chapter 290 Shona is still conquering the dungeon (4k)

Swish swish——

Xiuna almost watched him writing furiously. Every morning after getting up, he would sit at the table and write in front of the red-covered book. It seemed like he was "reciting facts" rather than "creating", insisting on a moon.

By the time he finished writing, the tree outside the window had changed from losing all its leaves in winter to sprouting green twigs.

""Mission System"...?"

Shona folded her hands and said the name several times. She obviously knew both words, but when put together, she didn't know what Will meant.

But...

She sat at the table and admired the profile of young Will's face as he wrote.

The eyes under his glasses are particularly determined, and occasionally a malicious smile appears on the corner of his mouth. When he stops, he will bite the end of his pen...

Very cute.

like.

I want to rub my face.

"Speaking of which, at this time, he seems to have not written a letter asking for help... I probably don't know him yet."

She leaned down slightly and tilted her head to look at his front.

"In that case, he seems to be relatively unfamiliar to me now. It's a pity that this place is just a 'memory' that keeps reappearing, and I can't talk to him..."

"Otherwise, it would be quite interesting to be able to talk to little Will when he was a child."

"Hmm...what should I say? But if I talk to him at my age, will I look like a strange big sister?"

Shona tried to peek at the words he wrote.

Of course, this time he could understand it, and it wasn't the unfamiliar language he heard in his earliest memories.

Unfortunately...

There is a gap in this book in his "memory". To put it simply, she could see some words clearly, while she could only see fragments of other words.

A whole page will appear with wavy lines like "~~~~~~~~~~~~", which only means that something is written here. As for what exactly it is, there is no way of knowing.

"It seems that he has really grasped the truth that a good memory is worse than a bad writing. Writing this book can prevent his memory from forgetting something."

As for what can be seen clearly...

"Hmm... long-term mission, training in the direction of high temperature: train Yi Aier's ice armor possession to last for ten minutes in a sauna at 100 degrees Celsius. The mission reward is to eat popsicles with her."

Most of them are like this, setting a short-term goal for Yiel or themselves, and after reaching the goal, they will give some painless rewards.

"Why would he write something like this?"

Judging from the description of the mission, she was able to get acquainted with Will through letters, and it was inseparable from these missions.

After he finished writing his book, he protected it very well.

Basically, he would carry a thick red-covered book wherever he went, and he was so careful that he would hardly leave a chance for Iel to see it.

"...Could it be that this is the 'destiny' he mentioned?"

Shona is a very perceptive person. She has already seen the contents of the "Mission System" and knows what Will has been struggling with for so long. She quickly guessed it without going around the corner.

"Everything he couldn't forget was written down in a book for reference. Then he listed many plans. And everything was detailed..."

"It's very strange. It's different from what he said. If it is really the content of the 'dream'... let's not talk about why there is such a clear memory after waking up..."

"He didn't even verify the dream and reality through many experiments, and just wrote it down as the trajectory of 'fate'..."

"As far as I know, Will is not someone who would believe so easily."

She tried to read more contents in the book to see if she could get a glimpse of "destiny", but unfortunately...

If this guy's memory can remember the contents of this book clearly, why did he write this book!

So she couldn't read most of it.

…

Then, Shona saw the young master's side of "hard work can never match talent".

For example, if you read a lot of magic books, but you actually recite the magic circles and spells, your energy supply is not enough; for example, swordsmanship requires three or four times more effort than others to get better; for example, endurance When running, it doesn’t take long before I start to pant and so on…

Shona somewhat understood why Will eventually chose to be a priest.

This should be... the best choice he gave himself after weighing almost all careers.

Then, almost seamlessly, she saw the scene she wanted to see most.

After Will discovered a problem that the maid couldn't overcome during his exercises, he came back and wrote a letter asking for help from the Adventurers Association.

"So, did you write the letter with this expression?"

She had imagined it more than once, especially after discovering that his identity should be the mysterious young master of the System family. She was very curious about how a young master like him would sit at the table, thinking about words and sentences. Then he wrote his first external letter.

But the real picture was duller than she imagined.

On a quiet night with the lamp lit, after scratching my head four or five times, I finished writing a letter.

But Shona is very happy because...

"This letter looks clearer than many, many other texts. So...well, there's no need to guess. You will definitely remember things related to me very clearly."

Then, what made her even happier was probably that she could hear a sound in her memory later——

"Well, this is a letter addressed to Mr. S."

"Does Mr. S have a solution?"

"If it's Mr. S, he will definitely be able to give me a plan."

"As expected of Mr. S! He can actually come up with such a brilliant idea."

…

Shona herself didn't even notice that when she heard Will, who was still in the process of changing his voice, calling out "Mr. S" in an adoring tone, her face started to heat up a little bit.

"So, it turns out that this guy secretly... admires me so much?"

"Although you do think of me as a man. But...the scream...is quite sweet."

"I regret it a bit. I should...should have allowed him to call me Mr. S for a while longer. He changed his name too quickly!"

…

Further into the story, Shona's familiarity is not much worse than Will's.

After all, in the letters she exchanged with him, no matter how much the guy wanted to "conceal" and be "anonymous," she could guess everything from a few words.

What about becoming a student of the witch mentor, how about establishing a bond with the little princess who is my fiancée, how about being clingy with the little beast-girl maid every day...

Okay, okay, she knows everything.

Isn't it just...

Could she only watch the three years they spent alone from a distance?

Nothing.

The memory became clearer and clearer, with more and more details. Even when they were stationed in Novis Town, Shona knew that she was getting closer and closer to seeing her.

but……

Which book is...

What did you write?

"I'm going to see Mr. S tomorrow. Well...just put this book here."

Will sat in front of the table, put the "Mission System" on the table, and flipped through the pages intentionally or unintentionally.

Chance.

In his still clear memory, he rarely flipped through page after page. Most of the time, he directly picked a certain page and wrote directly on it!

Shona quickly came to his desk, stood directly behind him, covered him, and read the book from the same perspective as him.

"I don't really want to take this book with me. After all, it records a predetermined fate. But..."

"For me, Mr. S is a brand new encounter and a brand new destiny."

"There's still about a year left until 'that day', and there's still a long time to enjoy..."

That day?

What day?

Shona looked at a certain page of the book. There seems to be a blank page separated from the following text. He often uses this method to distinguish each character - including himself, of course.

[Task ▇▇: Accept death (try it if you can avoid it). 】

[Important information: The name of the dungeon where he was killed by slimes: ▇▇▇▇. ]"

…

ah?

this……

What's this?

"I will die in an accident in a dungeon about a year and a half later..."

...he mentioned it!

Shona had not forgotten this.

It turns out that the accident was caused by you being crushed to death by a slime. It's so embarrassing, no wonder you always find various words to cover up your hesitation.

"No, no, okay, the point is... I originally thought he knew this would happen, but didn't know where. Now it seems that he even remembers the place of death..."

"If you knew which dungeon it was...can I help you prevent it in advance? If you had conquered it in advance, wouldn't you have died?"

Shona stared at the line of words. The line of words was not completely unclear, and it was not completely "forgotten". It seemed to be getting clearer from the beginning. Perhaps for Will, Said, this is a name between "completely forgotten" and "trying to recall it"!

"Slow down time, you... take another look, don't turn the page..."

Shona prayed inwardly, but to no avail.

Before she could see the line of words that was about to appear, Will calmly turned the page.

It's as if what he wrote was just an ordinary thing and it wasn't worth staying here any longer.

"hateful!"

Shona sighed. She didn't need to look at the subsequent memories. Most of them were what she and Will had experienced together, and there was no extra information.

This memory can't hear Will's heart, otherwise she would have to listen to what this kid usually thinks about. Especially...especially what would he think when he saw him for the first time? After all, Will, who is always smooth-talking and trying to cover up everything, what comes out of his mouth may not necessarily be what he thinks in his heart.

...Should he be praising himself for looking good?

oh……
