"You seem to be very familiar with these things." Lani watched as Agnes quickly disemboweled the fish in her hand directly by the stream with an extremely smooth movement, and then smeared it with the spices and spices she picked along the way. Salted and grilled.
"It's not difficult," Agnes raised her head and raised her eyebrows. "The knowledge contained in the potion can enhance the ability to learn many skills."
"No," Lani stared at Agnes closely, with a hint of probing, "I mean the feeling you gave me is very inconsistent with these..."
"What's the discrepancy?" Agnes turned over the fish in her hand, raised her head and asked.
"You should be well-dressed and well-made..."
"Then holding a wine glass filled with juice and showing a so-called perfect smile to a group of curly baboons at those stupid dance parties?" Agnes interrupted Lani with a slightly malicious smile.
Lani said no more, just looked at the obviously malicious smile on Agnes's face.
Agnes lowered her head and grilled the fish in her hands seriously.
"The mocking malice you show is false," Lani said suddenly. "Although you really don't like those ball dinners you mentioned, you don't actually care about them."
And barely concealing the fact that she was once a member of the upper class, Lani swallowed the words she was about to say and looked at Agnes.
Logically speaking, she should not try to communicate with such a person who gives her a strong sense of crisis, especially when she is completely under the other person's control.
But her intuition told her that it didn't matter. Although the other party had the idea of killing her before, he was not ready to do it now.
But now, the other party has a certain tolerance for her for the time being, and she suddenly wants to say something. Especially when the other party looks over, Lani feels that the other party will definitely listen to her words and then say something.
Agnes raised her head, her expression unchanged.
"Where did you see it?" she asked aloud.
"I didn't see it," Lani said. "It was just a gut feeling."
"An 'intuition'?" Agnes curled her lips, "I almost thought you were actually the 'audience'."
Agnes didn't give Lani a chance to interrupt, and said directly: "You want to know my identity?"
Rani paused and nodded slightly.
"You can ask me directly," Agnes said. She raised the corners of her mouth, showed a smile to Lani, and then said softly: "I am from the city of Feneport. I once had a job with good conditions. After my family and mother died, I suddenly found that I didn’t want to deal with those people anymore, so I left Feneport City and became a bounty hunter.”
Fenerport City? The Kingdom of Feneport... The Church of the Earth Mother has always preached the preciousness of life. Lani nodded.
"You seem to have a lot of questions?" Agnes looked at Lani and asked.
"Yes," Lani nodded and said, "I have always wondered why you clearly wanted to kill me, but then let me go..."
"I thought you were wondering why you appeared here from the Red Theater." Agnes said, raising the corners of her lips.
Lani was silent for a moment, then slowly shook her head, "But that gentleman or lady handed me over to you."
"Okay, think calmly," the smile on Agnes's face gradually widened, "then why do you think you are still alive now?"
"Because of this child," Lani touched her belly with a complicated expression, "you don't want to kill him."
"Perhaps," Agnes nodded noncommittally and glanced at her palm inexplicably. "But it's not that I don't have expectations for your choice."
Lani couldn't help but laugh, "What choice do I have?"
"Your future choices," Agnes sniffed the grilled fish in her hand and said, "the past choices cannot be changed, and it is meaningless for you to talk to me for the time being."
"You have killed those who are on your path except for your own choices," Agnes straightened up and said casually, "so just talk about the future."
"The choice for the future..." Lani's face became a little confused, then she lowered her head and said, "You may know better than me."
"I don't know, no one can know which one you will choose before you make a choice." Agnes tore open the grilled fish casually, "I only know that you are trying to destroy yourself together with those things you hate, But I don’t know what exactly you hate?”
"Red Theater? Byam? Or is it everything that has happened to you? Or is it just you?" Agnes said, looking at Lani, whose face was getting stiffer.
Lani couldn't help but cover her face and gasped a little. After a long time, she raised her head and stared at Agnes closely.
"I don't know," she said softly.
"I hated my mother at first, the man who allowed her to give birth to me, the locals my mother called me, and the people who killed my mother," Lani said with a dazed look on her face. "Later I found out that I actually also I hate the Red Theater, I hate Bayam, I hate Suniyahai, I even hate..."
There was a pause in her words.
"The whole world." Agnes continued Rani's words.
Lani remained motionless for a long time and finally nodded.
"Ah, the whole world..." Agnes said in a distressed tone, "Do you wish the whole world would end soon?"
"Then you can't accomplish what you expect just by summoning a demon," Agnes raised her eyebrows and said softly, "After all, an ordinary demon might not even be able to end Byam."
Lani didn't speak, just looked at Agnes.
"I thought you were going to tell me that I was wrong in thinking this way."
"Wrong?" Agnes couldn't help laughing, "I don't think so. In fact, sometimes I feel that the world shouldn't be like this."
"I often feel that the world is strange and twisted, but sometimes I feel that it is actually quite normal, but it happens to be normal where there are problems," Agnes said in a calm voice, "The people at the top are there. Taking advantage of every noble impulse and every human tragedy, the people at the bottom are pale and haggard, but have no idea why they are in such a situation."
"Even if the straw-like people at the bottom have good intentions towards the people around them and try to hold on to every glimmer of hope, they can only burst like a bubble under the beneficial path chosen by the people at the top..." Agnes stopped herself. With his words, he picked up the grilled fish that he tore open and took a bite.
"Heh..." Agnes chuckled and shook her head.
"I'm different from you." Rani said aloud.
"Of course it's different." Agnes said softly.
