It was almost 10:30 when Fisher returned to his rental house. This was also to blame for the carriage driver who ran away as soon as he arrived at the place. Fisher ran a long way before returning to the city and sitting down. Carriage, I don’t know how Anna will get back.
However, Fisher was not worried about her safety. When he met Anna in the Pink Pavilion for the first time, Fisher felt that the aura on her body was very dangerous. Although he did not understand her specific methods, she was definitely not arbitrary. A weak woman bullied by others.
When she got home, Ms. Martha had already rested, just enough to avoid her asking questions about herself and Lisa Bai.
But recently, Fisher really felt that he and Yin Lisabai were a bit unclear.
Every time he gets along with her, there is a subtle atmosphere that is isolated by the gauze, and as long as he stretches out his hand, the gauze can be ripped off.
Just like what happened in the coffee shop just now, if Fisher wanted to, he could easily lower his head and kiss Yin Lisabai's lips, tasting the taste of the eldest princess respected by the people of Nali.
But precisely because Yin Lisabai is the eldest princess of the royal family, falling in love with her always means huge responsibilities...
Their most perfect time was when they were at the Royal Academy.
At that time, Fisher was helpless and sincerely loved the princess who was sitting next to him and reading books with him.
Fisher is not disturbed by prophecies of annihilation, nor does he have a love debt like Renee and Rafael, nor does he know the true nature of Lisa White; Lisa White is quiet, good at hiding, like the most perfect lady in the world Just as lovable and cherished.
If Elizabeth Yin and Fisher had been braver and more proactive at that time, she would have realized her mistakes and been willing to take responsibility for what she had done; Fisher would not have chosen to stay away from her silently, but would have walked closer and communicated with her. , maybe we won’t be in this awkward stalemate now.
The love and affection left over from their youth in the past were entangled between them like ropes, making it impossible for them to stay away. But when they really wanted to get closer, reality pushed them to keep a little distance...
Fisher and Elizabeth Yin were in a stalemate with each other, neither one willing to let the other go...
Well, it sounds a bit bitter, but in reality there are often not so many high-profile emotions, but only a silent consensus between the two.
When asked about solutions, both probably felt there was no better answer than "We'll see in the future."
Fisher shook his head and put his thoughts aside for the time being, preparing to "talk about it in the future."
At this moment, he opened the door and walked into his room, only to find that the lights in his room were not turned on, the sofa was empty, and no trace of Jasmine was found.
He frowned and looked at the closed window. After confirming that she had not gone out, he walked towards the bathroom.
In Fisher's sight, the bathroom was dark. The long dress he made for Jasmine was folded well and placed on the stool in the room.
So Fisher reached out and turned on the light in the bathroom. Sure enough, the bathtub in the room was filled with water. Jasmine was naked and lying peacefully in the water bath, as if she was sleeping.
She had obviously heard Fisher turning on the light, but five seconds had passed by the time Jasmine opened her eyes, as if there was a huge delay.
Fisher just glanced at her and withdrew his gaze from her body. He reached out to turn off the light in the bathroom, thus avoiding embarrassment.
"Jasmine?"
He asked softly, but there was only silence.
"..."
Hearing Fisher's call, Jasmine did not respond immediately.
Fisher thought she was sick or something, but just as he was about to get closer, he saw the whale tail and long ears on her body light up a little fluorescently at the same time.
After the fluorescent light was completely lit, Jasmine seemed to wake up, and she sat up from the bathtub in a panic, covering her body.
"Fei Fei Fei Fei..."
She spoke coyly and panicked, her tail trembled slightly and splashed with water. Seeing that she was okay, Fisher took a few steps back, until he retreated to the door of the bathroom.
"What happened to you just now? I thought you were sick."
Just now, she fell into the water peacefully, as if the steam engine had stopped running. Even when she heard Fisher's voice, she opened her eyes much slower than the others.
"Hey? I'm sick... I'm not sick. I just stayed on land for too long, so I need to stay in the water for a while. The longer I stay on land, the more time I need to spend in the water. It’s time to get back into shape.”
Fisher stood at the door, leaning against the wall connecting the bathroom, and asked,
"So this is why you had to go to the swimming pool so often when you were at Saint-Nali University?"
"Um..."
Jasmine replied,
"Although we can move freely on land, we cannot stay too long. If we are not in contact with water for a long time, we will always feel very tired, have a feeling of suffocation, and our reactions will become very slow..."
slow response?
Fisher suddenly remembered that when he was at Saint-Nali University, he had noticed that Jasmine's actions and reactions were sometimes fast and sometimes slow. At that time, he thought it was due to her cute personality. Unexpectedly, it was the characteristics of the whale race. cause trouble.
"So that's it. Before, I was curious as to why you ocean demi-humans could land normally..."
"Ah, actually, it's because the origin of all life is the same, and all creatures are always similar and different. When I was a child, my mother once told me a legend about how Master Lamastia created life. .”
"oh?"
Fisher was very interested in the legends spread among the cetacean society, because from the beliefs and cultural practices of a civilization, you can always discover many characteristics of this race that are usually difficult to discover.
For example, the dragon race loves wine and fire very much, which also creates their unrestrained and open-minded character. We can also roughly deduce why the ancient Ferma Baha Longting was so tolerant.
Fisher listened intently, and the demi-human girl in his arms began to heat up slightly after completing the manual, proving his thinking.
"Legend has it that Lamastia created all life. In Lamastia's long, deep and lonely sleep, she thought of creating life to accompany herself so that she would no longer be so lonely. Her thoughts As soon as it moved, countless lives full of vitality appeared out of thin air in various places in the world."
"But at the beginning, the beings created by Lady Lamastia had no self-awareness. The more she created, the more lonely she became. So, she began to try to create conscious beings. She first created Human beings are afraid that humans will fall into the same loneliness as themselves, so they begin to create other different companions for them.”
2k
"But Lamastia is too kind. When she creates life, she always thinks about the good things of other creatures. This leads to the more complicated the life she creates later, and the more it carries with it the many things she created before. Advantages of living things.”
"My mother said that our whale race is one of the last few creatures created by Lamastia... Hehe, because she was too philanthropic, she forgot that when she created life, she originally created life so that someone could accompany her. Therefore, the subhuman species in the ocean were created later, and most of them mixed the characteristics of many creatures. This is why we can breathe on land."
"I asked Lord Lamastia before, but she never told me this. I don't know if my mother made up this legend, because she likes to brag... but Lord Lamastia said However, the greatest characteristic of life is balance. What some creatures possess will be discarded in other places."
As Fisher listened, he suddenly thought of what Eliog once said about the "levels of life".
It is not difficult to infer from her words that human beings are ranked very low in the hierarchy of life. Although she does not despise human beings, Fisher has a vague feeling that her own race or some other creatures are very Disdainful of human beings.
If we extrapolate from the legend told by Jasmine, does it mean that the order in which Lamastia creates life is lower at the front, and higher at the back?
To be fair, if you asked Fisher to fight an adult dragon in a one-on-one fight without using magic and without the bonus of a demi-human girl completing the manual, he would probably be killed in less than one turn. Some demi-humans Born with physical advantages.
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn’t make sense. According to legend, Lamastia should have first created the demi-humans on land, and then created the demi-humans in the ocean. Then the life levels of the creatures in the ocean should be It's higher than anything on land.
But at first glance, Shiraki and Reina are not as good as the dragon races or demon races living on land...
Well, it seems that it’s not feasible to explain this purely by relying on legends.
"Ah, I forgot to ask the teacher if he had any clues about the healing room. I just kept talking to myself..."
Jasmine seemed to have come out of the water tank. The sound of water drops dripping onto the floor was ticking. She gently reached out and took the skirt in her hand. Fisher also walked to the door of the room to turn on the light.
He roughly told Jasmine about the clues about the healing room, and she had just finished changing her skirt and walked out. After listening to what Fisher said a lot, she pursed her lips in understanding, and finally nodded, To sum up,
"I...I understand. Anyway, I have to go out with Mr. Fisher anyway. I can help."
Well, I heard it. In fact, she didn't understand the clues Fisher mentioned at all. Anyway, just follow what Teacher Fisher did.
Fisher was a bit dumbfounded about Jasmine who was very easy to deceive, but remembering how Jasmine couldn't balance herself and sucked life everywhere, he still reminded her,
"The most important thing is that you need to balance yourself, right? Have you found a way now?"
"Teacher, while you were carving magic, I tried to control the curse in my body, but... the amount was too great, and it would take a long time to calm down. If it was a battle..."
Jasmine glanced at Fisher cautiously, but in order not to set a negative example, she clenched her fists and cheered,
"But...but I will try my best!"
Looking at her cute appearance, Fisher couldn't help but reached out and touched her blue hair. The long hair was wet and had a faint floral fragrance. With just a light touch, Fisher Then you withdrew your hand.
But Jasmine blushed and narrowed her eyes, looking very comfortable, and her ears started to flap.
"Come on."
"...Um."
Ugh... If you touch me like this, has Teacher Fisher agreed to be knocked unconscious and dragged back to the sea?
Jasmine, who was imagining something for no reason, pinched the hem of her skirt and thought like this.
And Fisher turned around and planned to go downstairs to make a phone call. It was now 10:30 in the evening, and the junior should not be asleep yet.
The call was to Kerken, who Fisher still needed help getting into this weekend's charity gala.
