"you......"
In the cold basement, Noya opened her lips slightly and wanted to say something, but her mind was blank and she no longer knew how to speak, and a wisp of cold sweat broke out on her white forehead.
The air seemed to freeze at this moment.
Noya could even hear clearly that her heartbeat was getting louder and louder.
The trump card that I originally wanted to rely on turned into a joke in an instant.
What's even more frightening is that after she was reborn, she found that she suddenly couldn't figure out Eli at all, and she didn't know how this man would treat her now.
The fear of the unknown completely enveloped Noya's heart.
However, Eli's next words made her grasp at straws.
"What are you doing?"
yes!
Why bother?
Noah suddenly reacted.
In Eli's understanding, she was brought here just two days ago. She was a plaything that was imprisoned because she refused to become a maid. Eli had not even started torturing her yet. Even if she had made some enmity, Not to the point of life and death.
From this point of view, there was really no need for her to panic.
Although the trump card was exposed, at most it only aroused Eli's alertness, and it would not cause Eli to directly strangle her in the cradle.
In other words, she still has hope for revenge, but the chance is much smaller.
Thinking of this, Noya's mind became active again.
She realized that she had to change her strategy, and she must not try to provoke Eli like she did just now, otherwise even the slightest hope would be wiped out.
So, Noya turned away again and pretended to be calm: "Do you think everyone is as powerful as you and your family? If I hadn't been targeted by you, with my current magic talent..."
She decided to follow Eli's words and "show" her heart.
Anyway, the power of time and space has been exposed, and there is no point in trying to cover it up too much. It is better to use this topic to cover up her hatred and make Eli mistakenly think that there is no deep hatred between them.
This way, she would have more room to maneuver.
Although Eli does have a huge advantage now, if you think about it carefully, this may not be a bad thing for her.
After all, the greater the advantage, the easier it is for people to relax their vigilance.
Especially Eli's character is still so arrogant.
Once she lets this guy take it easy, won't her chance come?
So the greater Eli's advantage, the greater her advantage.
When Noya came to the conclusion, she just felt that she was really a genius!
Especially when she saw Eli looking like he thought he had seen through everything, she couldn't help but feel a little secretly happy in her heart.
But Eli's reaction was still different from what she expected.
Before she could finish speaking, Eli interrupted calmly: "Have you ever thought about... why your family sent people to hunt down your parents? It was clear that they planned to clean up the family, but they only let go Passed you?"
In the empty basement, the deep voice seemed a bit scary.
Noah seemed to realize something, couldn't help but stiffen, and looked up at Eli again.
"......What's the meaning?"
Under Noah's gaze, Eli elaborated without changing his expression: "Regardless of the fact that there are still people in your family who pity children, in the final analysis, in their eyes, you are just a mortal without magic power."
"No matter what you do, it will be difficult to affect the magical world."
"This is the insurmountable barrier between mortals and magicians."
The understatement tells the cruel reality.
This time Noya no longer avoided Eli's gaze, but her beautiful ruby-like eyes became darker.
She had realized what Eli meant.
And Eli was just as she thought, as if he had issued a judgment, and said slowly: "And you, now you have broken this barrier, do you think... your family will do this for you?" Are the descendants with dirty blood happy? Or are they... breaking out in a cold sweat?"
The answer is obvious.
Noya couldn't help but reveal a self-deprecating smile.
Although she had never known her family since she was a child, she at least knew what kind of people her family was.
Those guys wouldn't just break out in a cold sweat?
I'm afraid that the moment he heard that she had awakened her magic power, he would hold a meeting with a very ugly face, and finally send people to eliminate her at all costs.
Just like her parents...
After all, she, a mixed-race descendant, cannot compare to the family's reputation. What's more, at this point, those people don't expect her to understand the family's philosophy.
Rather than waiting for her to come to retaliate later, it is better to clean up as soon as possible.
Although Noya is a reborn person, in fact, she did not live long in her previous life. After being released from the basement, she stayed with Eli for less than half a year, and then she was killed inexplicably. , and didn’t even have time to attract the attention of the Aminos family.
Now that Eli pointed out this issue, Noya's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.
But it's not over yet.
Eli reminded him indifferently: "Although your space-time attributes are indeed very rare, if you just want to hide, I'm afraid no one can catch you, but the premise is... you must have the corresponding foundation .”
As he spoke, Eli slowly raised his right hand.
In an instant, the entire basement erupted with astonishing magic fluctuations. In the darkness where the firelight could not shine, everything seemed to be distorted by this, as if it had fallen into his control.
"With your current strength, even if I let you leave here safely, if I want to, I will catch you no matter where you hide. Do you... want to give it a try?"
As the words fell, endless darkness wrapped around Noya's limbs.
In just the blink of an eye, Noya discovered that the iron chains around his wrists and ankles had been swallowed by the darkness.
She gained a brief but precious freedom.
Although Noya had seen a little bit of Eli's strength in her previous life, it was only now that she clearly felt Eli's power.
The terrifying dark magic makes people unable to resist at all.
This is Eli's true strength...
Noah's mood suddenly became very subtle. He subconsciously moved his hands and stared blankly at everything in front of him, feeling inexplicably like he was in a dream.
But she knew this was reality.
After being silent for a long time, Noya finally chose to accept the reality and lowered his head reluctantly: "No need..."
Not to mention that it was impossible for her to escape Eli's capture now. Even if she was lucky enough to escape, she didn't know how she would deal with so many forces that were eyeing her and her family - Aminos.
"In that case, you should already understand, right?"
Eli, who had been standing at the end of the bed, finally walked over, picked up Noya's white and tender chin, looked down at her weak and helpless, and then said word by word like a devil's whisper: "Now Only I can take you in, and becoming my maid...is your only way to survive."
At this moment, facing Eli's dark golden eyes, the scale in Noya's heart completely tilted.
But what makes it even more difficult for her to accept is that Eli was obviously not very talkative in his previous life, so why did he suddenly become so good at talking in this life?
This is not reasonable at all...
Less than an hour after being reborn, Noya's brain was about to burn out.
She couldn't imagine how she would be persuaded if she allowed Eli to continue talking.
