Chapter 179 Questions and Answers

At the edge of the wet and cold beach at midnight, the atmosphere remained dull. The boy sitting on the rock just stared at the tall and thin drowned man standing not far away, and the other person was also looking at him motionless at this time, with a blank expression. expression.

"Judging from your behavior, you're watching me."

After a moment of silence, seeing that the other party had no intention of speaking, Renly added: "And this kind of observation is completely different from that of the Drowned People. At the same time, before being found by the Drowned People, I was once followed by a silver-haired woman. That's what they said."

Renly paid close attention to the expression of the woman in front of him when he mentioned the silver-haired woman, but still didn't see anything.

"Both that woman and you seem to be able to find exactly where I am." Renly said, raising his hand to grab something in the air, and frowning as if he had caught something.

"I could probably guess it was the cat because nothing like this had ever happened before."

The air cat in his hand obviously didn't understand his identity as a "traitor". After being caught, he still swayed and put his fleshy paw on Renly's arm to show his closeness. So Renly let go of his hand and stopped caring about it. .

"So I initially thought that you and the silver-haired woman were together to observe me. Therefore, you couldn't let me leave the Iron Islands easily, so the group of Drowned People came to the door, but -"

He paused for a moment while his fingers fiddled with the bronze ring hanging around his neck as if unintentionally.

"Later I discovered that maybe you are not two people, but one."

These words finally made the other party's expression react, and he seemed a little surprised for a moment.

"Women and men seem to be two people, why can't they be one?"

Renly on the side said to himself: "You never participated when the drowned people bathed in the sea, and no one saw you peeing in front of others. And since you appeared, the woman has disappeared without a trace. Come on...are you a faceless person? Can you change your appearance at will?"

"That's all?" the other party asked, his voice becoming hoarse: "Just based on these, do you think I'm a woman?"

"Of course more than that."

Renly smiled and said, "But I can't tell you the rest. It's a secret."

"Is it a secret..."

The other party murmured in a complicated tone: "You have so many secrets."

The emotion of these words was obviously a bit abnormal. At the same time, due to some of his newly evolved characteristics, Renly felt a faint sadness, which made him frown involuntarily, but then he didn't need to consider whether this emotion was Why? Because the other party has already taken action.

He saw the tall and thin Ryan standing there suddenly raising his hand to touch his left cheek, and then under Renly's unsurprising gaze, he pinched the edge of his cheek with his fingers and lifted it outward——

A soft flesh-colored mask was held in the opponent's hand, and the face under the mask had become very beautiful.

Because the sky was dark, Renly didn't feel anything special at first, but after taking a closer look at the slim and graceful woman not far away, his originally calm expression was startled unconsciously, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.

"you--"

She has a smooth forehead, delicate facial features, and long black hair that is constantly blowing in the sea breeze, which makes her look a little different, but her oval face is quite familiar to Renly.

"Rhaenas?"

The boy's surprised voice made the woman not far away smile, but she did not stop. She raised her right hand and tugged on her fair neck, while looking at Renly with interest.

A silver necklace was pulled off by her, and her beautiful face was in a daze for a moment, and then suddenly disappeared, or in other words, half of it suddenly disappeared.

Under the cold wind at night, half of the face of the slender figure standing on the beach was still delicate and white, and the way her hair was ruffling looked very moving, but now there was a tangled and ugly burn scar on her right cheek, which was connected to her eyebrows. It was there, down to the edge of her lips, setting off the beautiful left half of her cheek, like a combination of angel and devil, looking so weird and disharmonious.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

She finally spoke, her voice still hoarse, but there was no trace of the smile she once had in her tone.

Countless questions came to his mind in an instant, but he didn't know where to start. After a moment of silence, Renly couldn't help but said: "Didn't you already——"

"already dead?"

The woman smiled lightly: "You are so smart, you should be able to guess what the truth is."

"...That Sister Ada?" Renly said while looking at the mask in his hand.

"That's right."

"Then your face..."

"Accidentally burned."

The woman touched the right side of her face and smiled nonchalantly.

"After so many years, I have become accustomed to it."

She said, looking around Renly's current childish appearance with interest.

"Is this your other identity? Or is it the real you?"

"It's another identity, but it's also me."

Renly answered hesitantly, and then glanced at the mask floating in the wind in the other person's hand.

"How did you become the Faceless One?"

"I learned it while traveling in the Free Trade City. This ability is very useful." The woman said, and put the necklace in her hand back around her neck, so the right half of her face that originally looked rather ugly quietly changed, and finally Harmony with the one on the left.

"I also learned a little bit of magic."

Free Cities...Faceless Men...

Renley's mind was complicated when he heard this, but he didn't think about it too much, because he was still confused.

"How did you find me? And how old are you?"

"You said your name was Renly in the Dorne Desert. This name is rare, so I was able to find you. At the same time, I think you know better than me why I am here."

Rhaenys whispered: "As for my appearance, I don't know why I have changed back to this appearance now. I only know that it is related to Raya. At the beginning, I led the dragon away for revenge. I wanted to put the blame on my sister, but I didn't want to stimulate Raya, and then-then everything changed... Sorry, I didn't know it was you at that time."

She looked both apologetic and quite calm, which made Renly not know what to say.

Blame?

Don't blame those who don't know, and it's still an acquaintance of his, an acquaintance who "resurrected from the dead". To be honest, he still feels quite happy now.

Don't take it seriously?

Burned to death alive, only those who know the pain will know.

And there is——

"What happened next?"

Renley suddenly asked: "What happened next?"

"You want to ask about Raya?"

Rhaenys asked, and when she saw Renly nod, she seemed a little hesitant and a little sad: "I'm not sure about Raya——but I think she may have——died."

Dead?

Renley was stunned when he heard this.
