The Righteous Player(s)

Chapter 687 Ai Lei's Sense of Happiness
——Yes, the era of the future.

For Ai Lei, everything revealed in this nightmare reveals a certain possibility of the "future".

Such towering and solid buildings, the manned mobile golems used by civilians, the reflection technique that only appears in wizard towers are also used for entertainment, and the food resources are so abundant that even commoners can eat and eat meat every day. drinking...

Every part of it was so detailed and novel... It was something she had never seen before, so how could it be a fictional dream?
What's more, Ai Lei already knew that peeking into the future in the dream world is not absolutely impossible.

The Pope in the hands of Mr. Yao—that is, the great curse in the hands of St. Peter the [Silent Man] can give people a glimpse of the future.

His silence may be the price of seeing the future.

Since the power of the great-level curse can do this, it may not be impossible for the gods to see the future...

Allie believed that if she lived in this era, she would at least... at least not die as unfortunately as she did 60 years ago.

Her mother was originally very beautiful.She can sing very well, and she was born with a siren-like voice.She could also play the piano and a stringed instrument that the Noah's Mountaineers were good at.Ai Lei wanted to go to the concert because her mother would play the piano and sing for Ai Lei occasionally when she was in a good mood.

Clara, who was 13 years old at the time, hadn't even heard a few songs, just relying on the songs she heard from the bard and humming randomly, it was already charming enough.

What is it that knows how to endure hardship, has an outstanding appearance, is innocent and cute-her biological father Joseph will never lack a wife of this level.He is a great wizard who has reached the silver rank at a young age. As long as he participates in politics, he is destined to enter the top ranks, and if he engages in business, he will become a rich man.

His fate is not destined to be on the same line as Clara.

It was precisely because of being fascinated by Clara's voice that he would have the patience to learn more about her character, her background, everything about her... and then he might fall in love with her, and with the help of a silver-rank wizard He took great pains to bring a girl who had no talent and could not even read a word into the wizard's tower and stayed by his side.

He taught her how to read, taught her the human heart, taught her rituals and spells, took her to see concerts, invited teachers to teach her how to play multiple musical instruments... However, these are just Clara's entertainment.

From the time Alley was very young, she knew that her mother's only wish was to become a big man and a nobleman, not just a vassal of others.

— Singing and playing the piano are hopeless.

Even if you become a great artist, you can only become a priest of Javon at best.And she never thought that singing was an art...it was just a means to please people, a tool to please people.

This kind of her will never be recognized by Yaweng.

And even if she is recognized... She wants to climb this road, but she is much farther than the wizard.

It would be better to marry a certain nobleman who has no heirs, and poison him to death sooner.If you do it right, you should be able to become a noble... If you don't kill enough, you can kill more.

...And in the end she will marry Amos, which is actually not in line with Clara's plan.

If you want to ask why.

Maybe he was overwhelmed by his talent.

When Clara was 17, she gave birth to Alley — then called Alley.When she remarried Amos, Amos was only 19 years old... five years younger than Clara.

At that time, Amos could be called a genius boy.

His talent was even recognized by a bishop of Javon—and every year his talent was far higher than the previous year, and his progress was rapid and high-spirited.At the same time, he is also a handsome boy with a gentle personality, a magnetic voice, and good manners in his dealings with others.

Even though Clara has many vicious plans and plots in her heart, compared with her love for Amos... she is still willing to let go of all of them temporarily.At least Amos can't be allowed to discover her true face, for which she even threatened her own daughter.

So, from a very young age, Allie discovered that... her mother didn't love Joseph at all.

The only person she ever loved was perhaps Amos.And Amos was in love with her... He was in love with Clara, and Eileen was also in love with him.

If it comes to this future era.

Even singers and luthiers can become big names, and Eileen's mother may not be planning a vicious conspiracy to kill people; and if Amos's career is also smooth sailing, he will not perform forbidden rituals... Sold own daughter and lover.

Well, maybe that's how Ellie's family should be.

Her pupils stared blankly at the light brown liquid surface of the coffee.

——People in the future are so happy.

She was so happy that she was even a little envious... so envious that she was almost jealous.

How wonderful it would be if I could live in this era too.

Just relying on the power built by the bones of the bone man, taking a peek here makes Ai Lei feel a little dazed.

Dreamy.

But looking at the people who entered the nightmare with her, they still looked calm and rational, which made Ai Lei feel a little ashamed.

...be reserved, Ellie!You see everyone is so calm!
A lady can't be so rude...!
...Although it is already very rude.

Ai Lei screamed in her heart, and couldn't help sitting up straight because of her shame.

She ate another piece of soft pastry and showed a happy expression.

With so much sugar added, it is sweet but not greasy, soft but not loose... This must be the most advanced pastry that noble ladies can eat, right?

And this "mountain wine", something that even Viscount Rossburg couldn't afford.In the "future", have they all become civilian food?
She clearly saw ordinary-dressed students who also brought their textbooks here to eat, drink coffee, and chat happily.

Allie thought of this, she held the coffee in front of her mouth, making herself gnawing on the snacks like a squirrel look less indignant.

She took the opportunity to open her emerald green clear one eye, looking around curiously like a cat - otherwise, she wouldn't dare to look at strangers, for fear that the other party would notice the gaze and look back.

This city is so novel and beautiful to her.

It would be a pity if I could only live here for one day...

She took a sip of her coffee tentatively and frowned at the bitterness.

I obviously added so much sugar!
Why is it still not sweet enough...

However, this bitterness is intertwined with the sweetness of the pastry, which unexpectedly has a sense of balance.

Ai Lei hesitated for a moment, whether to eat a few more snacks, or simply add some sugar?
...and, let's add some sugar.

Amos also said that it is normal for girls to love sweets!Eat more sugar to make your smile sweeter...just watch out for cavities.

Compared with high mountain wine, this dessert is so delicious.

What if after getting out of the nightmare, I can no longer eat...

It would be better to eat less.Will not miss too much.

Allie thought of this and put down her coffee cup.

It splashed a few droplets and landed on Ellie's eyepatch.

"Are you all right, little Allie?"

Selicia, who was sitting diagonally opposite, noticed it immediately.

"Ah, it's okay..."

With the idea of ​​not bothering others as much as possible, Ailei took off her blindfold and smiled apologetically: "Actually, I don't need the blindfold anymore. Wearing it is just a habit, and I can use my hair to cover it... ..."

When she said this, she suddenly paused.

——Because at this very moment.

She suddenly realized that her left eye could be opened.In her eye sockets that should have been empty, the texture of an eyeball clearly appeared.

【Eiley...open your eyes】

An ethereal, hallucinatory voice sounded from the bottom of her heart.

"……Do not."

An inexplicable fear made her temporarily choose to refuse.

the other side.

Annan was sitting upright in front of the mirror, closing his eyes.

"Ai Lei...don't be afraid, just open your left eye."

He whispered very lightly and gently.
