Chapter 248 Nirvana
At night, after taking a bath, Nenelli walked out of the bathroom, wiping her wet long hair with a towel while looking around.
Seeing that the familiar figure didn't appear for a long time, Nenelli couldn't help but ask Yvette: "Where is that guy?"
Yvette answered: "Master is practicing sword practice outside, and Sister Yazhi has already gone to find Master."
"Sword practice?"
Ninelli looks weird. Does that guy also practice swordsmanship?
Yvette said and couldn't help but sigh: "I always feel that something is wrong with Master today. He has been absent-minded since he came back in the afternoon."
Ninelli nodded, she also felt the same way, which can be seen from the dinner that Ryan made today. Ryan didn't even control the heat of the dinner this time.
Amiya sat silently on the sofa, reading a book by herself. The attentive Amiya also noticed that Ryan seemed to have something on his mind, so he did not pester Ryan to read with her.
At this time, outside the tree house.
Ryan stood in the open space, waving the black sword in his hand aimlessly and without any structure. His eyes were very wandering, and he was obviously thinking about something.
On this day, Ryan, who had always hoped to have a partner of the opposite sex, was shown love by a member of the opposite sex for the first time. Moreover, Ryan did not hate it, and even liked it a little. This should be a very happy thing.
But... Ryan chose to refuse.
As long as Ryan closes his eyes now, he can see Ivy raising her head to hold back tears and wiping her tears while saying it doesn't matter.
"Lord!"
At this time, Yazhi's voice came, bringing Ryan's thoughts back to reality: "Nenelli has already finished taking a bath!"
"I'll be right back."
After speaking in response, Ryan put his sword back on his waist and returned to the tree house.
At this time, Yvette should have already taken a bath in the bathroom, Amiya was still sitting on the sofa reading a book, and Nenelli was sitting on a chair, wiping her hair with a towel.
Stepping behind Nunnelli, Ryan stretched out his hand and slowly lifted up Nunnelli's long golden hair, making Nunnelli's petite body stiffen for a moment, and then quickly relaxed.
Sitting on the chair, while Ryan was drying her hair, Nenelli swayed her little feet and whispered:
"Ryan, you... went out to play with Sister Ivy today, right? After I came back, I felt that you have been a little strange. Did you have a conflict with Sister Ivy?"
Hearing what Nunnelli said, Ryan couldn't help but paused while blowing Nunnelli's hair.
At this time, Nunnelli turned her little head away again and hummed: "I...I'm not caring about you, I'm just...just a little worried about Sister Ivy!"
"Conflict? It shouldn't count, right? I'm just thinking about other things."
Ryan smiled faintly and rubbed Nenelli's little head.
There was silence for a moment.
After pondering for a moment, Ryan suddenly whispered to Ninelli: "Ninelli, if... I forget all the memories related to you every other year, will you still be willing to accompany me?"
Hearing what Ryan said, Ninelli's little face turned red all of a sudden: "You...what are you talking about!"
Ryan smiled, but it seemed a little inappropriate to ask Nenelli this question.
"……Will do."
At this time, Nernali, who had her head lowered and her face turned red, suddenly uttered two words as thinly as a mosquito bite.
Ryan couldn't help but be stunned.
"But...but..."
Nernali blushed and continued: "If you have to forget all the memories of the people around you every other year, it would be a bit unfair to those who have always retained memories related to you..."
Hearing what Nernelli said, Ryan murmured in a low voice: "Isn't it fair...?"
"It's just unfair. Of course, people who have lost their memory don't have to think about anything, but... but those who retain their memory, don't they have to go through the process of being forgotten by important people? In this case, it will definitely be It’s a very painful thing…”
Ryan fell silent.
Ninelli suddenly came back to her senses, and the blush on her cheeks suddenly spread to her ears. She immediately turned around and hit Ryan's chest twice with her pink fist: "You... what did you ask me to say!"
Afterwards, Ninelli didn't care whether her hair was blow-dried or not, she immediately jumped off the chair and trotted back to the bedroom.
Ryan squatted on the spot with a bitter look on his face.
In fact, what Nenelli said was similar to what Ryan thought.
After blow-drying the hair of the other girls, and watching them go back to the bedroom to rest, Ryan opened the bathroom door as usual, planning to clean the bathroom before going to bed.
Then, when the bathroom door was pushed open, dim lights and bookshelves full of ancient atmosphere came into view.
Ryan was stunned for a moment, then took steps towards the depths of the library.
It's still that familiar place, a small bed, a small table, and an elf who doesn't even have a clue.
Ryan calmly sat down on the chair in front of the table and asked, "Is something wrong? Alice."
Alice, who was lying on the bed, turned over and her eyes just met Ryan's side: "It's okay, can't I find you?"
"of course can."
Ryan smiled slightly: "If you want to find me, you can always come to me."
Alice: "..."
Ignoring this inexplicable feeling of unfamiliarity, Alice sat up from the bed, held her chin, and said to Ryan:
"The talented kid from our settlement confessed his love to you?"
Ryan was about to find a book on the bookshelf when he suddenly froze. After a moment, Ryan nodded.
"And you said no."
Alice said with a half-smile: "I'm also paying attention to that child. He is a very, very shy child. To be able to express my feelings to you like this, I must have exhausted all my courage in my life, right?"
"It's not like you don't know my state."
Ryan smiled bitterly and said: "Being with her, who is a longevity species, will only drag her down. If I really only have the life span of an ordinary person, it would be fine, but... being able to 'Nirvana', I might be a drag on her." lifetime."
Alice fell silent.
As the darlings of the Eternal Tree, only the elves can enjoy the eternal blessing brought by the Eternal Tree.
As for foreigners, even if they are favored by the Eternal Tree, they cannot live as long as the elves.
Ryan's lifespan should actually be like that of ordinary people, surviving to the age of more than a hundred years and then passing away peacefully.
However, Alice once activated a characteristic for Ryan based on Ryan's physique, which is "Nirvana".
Alice was also shocked when she first discovered this feature, but she soon became overjoyed.
After the joy, Alice calmed down again and discovered many disadvantages of Nirvana.
As time goes by, Alice regrets activating this feature for Ryan more and more.
