"Do you hate your mother?" Xia Ye asked.
"Hate? Why?" Lilian showed a blank expression, "Mother is very good to me. If you want to hate, you should also hate the people of 'Ether Exploration' who captured me for experiments, right... But they all already dead."
"Well……"
Xia Ye then remembered that the moral values of this world were not exactly the same as those of the past. In the witch's concept, there is never any obligation to the eggs she lays and the people hatched from the eggs. By their standards, Lillian's mother is already a very good mother.
So, Xia Ye simply changed the question: "Are they all dead? Did you find an opportunity later and blow them all up?"
Lilian shook her head vigorously: "Lillian is not that powerful. They controlled me very strictly, and I couldn't find a chance at all. At that time, I completed countless missions until one day, I received a new He entered a certain mansion as a new maid, found an opportunity to approach a big witch living there, and blew her up to death.
"That mission failed. I successfully approached the other party, but the moment before the collar took effect, the big witch destroyed the collar. Then, based on the information she got from my mouth, she found the group of people and took them Kill them all, and all my bodies are finally free.
"Afterwards, she asked me what my plans were, and I said I didn't know, so she asked me to stay with her and be her maid. In this way, a new life began, and it was the happiest life I had ever had since I was born. A while, until..."
Lilian looked at Xia Ye and said no more.
"You want to say that the big witch is me?" Xia Ye asked.
Unexpectedly, Lilian did not nod, but showed hesitation: "I'm sorry, Sister Xia Ye, actually I'm not sure..."
"We are not sure yet that you are her. In fact, I am more inclined to think that you are not her." Another voice suddenly broke in.
Xia Ye turned around and found that Victoria had returned at some point. She still maintained her girlish form, carrying the huge pair of scissors on her shoulders.
But she looked a little embarrassed.
The Lolita-style dress on her body was torn in several places, and there was a huge wound on her abdomen - but it had been sewn up with green thread. Although the sutures were so sparse that they looked like a joke, the horrific wound that almost disemboweled the girl was tightly closed without even a drop of blood flowing out.
"Are you okay?!" Xia Ye was shocked.
"Look at me like this, do I look like I'm okay?" Victoria said, pointing to her belly.
"Well……"
"But fortunately, this witch is more skilled and managed to drive them away."
"Is your injury okay, Victoria?" Lilian also asked worriedly.
"It doesn't matter. With my superb tailoring skills, as long as I sew it up, it will never crack." The girl said, proudly straightening her waist.
"Is this...anyway, you'd better be careful..."
"Rather than me, let's discuss her first..." Victoria looked at Xia Ye, "Following what I just said - no matter what Lilian thinks, I personally think that you are not her."
"Why?" Xia Ye asked.
"Why?" The girl holding the scissors smiled pointedly, "I should ask you this question. Don't you know it at all? Are you the original owner of this body, or not? Where are you from? Who are you really?"
Xia Ye was silent.
By now, even if she didn't explain it clearly, she understood a lot - Lillian and Victoria's close but defensive attitude towards her, the seemingly normal daily routine of the past month, but the details were full of doubts - all of this came from the source Regarding a question:
If one day, a person who is very important to you but should have died suddenly comes to life, but not only does she have no memory of the past, but her personality seems to have changed. So, what do you think?
Not to mention being unprepared, I'm afraid it would be incredible not to regard her as an enemy, right?
"In that case...why don't you regard me as your enemy? Or use some special means to get the answer you want from me?"
"I don't do this, of course there are other reasons." Victoria said, "It would be better if you could take the initiative to tell us your secret."
"..."
Xia Ye looked at Lilian and found that the girl also had an expression of anxiety and expectation.
"Lillian, it's not that I don't want to say it, but I don't even know what is going on."
She looked at Lilian and said seriously:
"I lost a long period of memory. This memory should be related to your questions. When I find that memory, I will tell you everything I know. When the time comes, I also hope you will tell me your questions. What you know is okay?”
The girl looked at her, and the anxiety in her eyes gradually disappeared. She smiled and nodded vigorously: "Yes. Sister Xia Ye... I believe in you. I believe that you are that person, and I also believe that you are a good person now."
"No, I'm not a good person." Xia Ye denied decisively.
"Eh?!"
"I'm not a good person, this witch is..."
"A super invincible and lovely beauty...right?" Victoria said it for her in advance.
"Yes!" Xia Ye admitted without shame, "Then Victoria, will you continue to protect me?"
"Since I promised you, I will naturally not go back on it." Victoria said, "And, after this time, I suddenly discovered that no matter who you are, your importance may be much greater than I imagined."
"Huh?"
"Didn't you notice? The moth beast this time is obviously coming for you."
"But, that's because I had an enmity with it on the Ether Sea, and Xiuji even ate one of its tentacles." Xia Ye gave an overview of what happened on the Ether Sea.
The more Victoria listened, the tighter her brows furrowed. Finally, she shook her head and said, "If it's just the trivial matter you mentioned, it would at most seek revenge alone, and it would be impossible for it to go into such a big fight."
"A big fight? Aren't there just two? One on top and one slipped down." Xia Ye looked confused.
"Two? If there were only two, what would I look like?"
Victoria pointed at her belly with an expression that said, "Are you kidding me?"
"This time, there are three level 6 moth beasts and more than twenty level 5 moth beasts on my side! If there weren't too many, how could I let a level 5 moth beast slip away?!"
Xia Ye suddenly opened her mouth wide and was speechless for a moment.
Just listen to Victoria continue: "This time the moth beast's intention is too obvious, even the upper city area can see the abnormality at a glance. Hehe~ That's why they did not work hard this time, the majestic city lord actually followed a level 6 moth The beast was beaten back and forth, but what was in his heart was not the plan to kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
"In other words, a total of four level 6 moth beasts and more than twenty level 5 moth beasts gathered together to kill me?" Xia Ye was still in disbelief.
"That's right, so think about it carefully. Is there any other reason?"
"Other...reasons..."
She murmured in a low voice, and gradually, she got some ideas in her mind:
If you want to ask what special thing he did before the moth beast attacked, then there is no doubt that there is only one thing:
Found the heads myself and "installed" them on the neck.
Is it because of this?
However, although the head is very important to him, it is only to himself. To the moth beast, even if he has three heads, he still can't defeat a level 5 moth beast. What...
"Sister Xia Ye, look!"
Lilian's sudden voice interrupted her thinking: "The city lord is back."
She looked in the direction Lilian pointed and saw a staircase made of countless mirrors reappearing between heaven and earth.
A slim girl in a black dress was slowly walking down the ladder. Behind her, a big hand made of black flames was grabbing the remains of a moth beast.
She seemed ready to take it back.
Halfway through the journey, the girl suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of Xia Ye.
Perhaps it was lost in the battle, as the girl was not covered by a veil at this time. Although the distance was far away, Xia Ye could still clearly see the girl's appearance with her eyes.
Long jet black hair, crimson eyes, appearance...
In an instant, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.
How... is it her? !
No, it can't be her, but her appearance is almost...
For a moment, Xia Ye couldn't believe what she saw. She blinked her eyes hard. When she looked again, the girl had turned around and continued to move forward. The wide brim of her hat covered her face, making Xia Ye no longer Can't see...
Unable to see the face that was exactly the same as that of her long-dead sister.
