Angel slept for three days and three nights.
The script was certainly compiled behind the scenes, but the performance had to be solid and without flaws. Angel grew from a Herrscher of Dominance who was in danger of losing her life every day to one who now suppresses the world.
She relied on one word: power!
Another word: being cruel to yourself!
So, Angel was really seriously injured. She ws just a little better than Yae Sakura who was beaten into the original form of the Divine Key. It was normal for her to almost die without the physique of the Herrscher of Dominance.
"I'm fine now. You can go to work and class, you don't have to stay here."
Angel said sincerely with a stern face.
Looking at the red eyes, worried eyes, and the silent guilty atmosphere of the people around her, Angel really wanted to smile at them.
But if she smiled, it would probably be regarded as a forced smile, which would only make them feel worse.
This is really a burden that makes people feel guilty and happy.
"Well, you have a good rest, we will go out first. If you need anything, contact me immediately, okay?"
"Yes, Himeko."
Angel gently nestled in Himeko's arms, gently stroking her back, trying to soothe her sorrow and anxiety.
Then the girls who had been guarding the bed for several days left one after another, and the slightly crowded intensive care unit finally returned to its proper quietness.
"Ah..."
Angel leaned back, looking at her slender arms wrapped in bandages, a trace of helplessness on her face.
"It can only rely on time."
Time will let everyone who cares about her put down their worries and return to normal.
Apart from this, it is estimated that no other move will work. They will only be regarded as false strength from pretending, making them more sad.
After worrying for a while, Angel looked at the empty ward, her eyes gradually becoming empty.
The script came to an end and she could also take a short break. This comfort is actually not easy to have.
However, just when her mind was empty for a while, the door quietly opened and a white-haired tuna sneaked in.
"Aren't you going to class?"
"Because Himeko said you must want to be alone, so Mei and the others went to help with some work. In fact, there was no class at all. Who has class now? Most of the teachers went on the ship for this expedition. After returning, they are on vacation and recuperation. The whole school is suspended for a week!"
"Then you don't need to help?"
"Because Aunt Himeko and Auntie said that if I go, I will only cause trouble, so I went out to play by myself. Hehe!"
Kiana scratched her head embarrassedly, and her watery blue eyes revealed clear stupidity.
Angel was speechless, patted the seat next to her, and motioned Kiana to sit up.
Kiana took off her shoes carelessly, climbed onto the bed, and leaned against Angel's side. "Actually, I know I should let you calm down. But I think about it, if you are alone when you are feeling bad, it will be more painful... I used to be like this."
"You used to be?"
"Yes, didn't I tell you that I have been running around the world alone since I was very young, looking for my stupid dad everywhere? At that time, I had to find ways to deal with hunger, thirst, and tiredness by myself, and I often cried alone in a corner. It was so painful."
"It sounds terrible."
Angel's eyes softened, raised her hand, and gently stroked Kiana's hair.
Kiana smiled, reached out, and gently hugged Angel's body.
"At that time, I thought, if only my stinky dad was by my side, I could hug him and cry, and then go to sleep after crying, but I never got what I wanted. Later, I realized that when you are sad, you must have someone to accompany you, otherwise it will only become more and more painful."
"So, you are worried that I will cry alone in the room?"
"Yeah, I am very worried. After all, we are also people who share secrets, and we are always a little more special than other people, so I think I can be here with you. How about it, will it feel better?"
Kiana lowered her head and asked uncertainly, with pure concern flashing in her clear eyes.
Based on this alone, Angel felt that it was completely worth it for her to spend so much effort on her.
This girl is the type that if you treat her well, she will turn around and open her heart to you.
Angel rubbed Kiana's chest, without a trace of evil thoughts, just sighed comfortably.
"I'm much better now, thank you."
"Hey, we are friends, don't be polite! I'll be happy if you get better soon, no need to thank me!"
"Yeah."
"The doctor said that you were seriously injured this time, and your whole body was destroyed by Honkai energy. If it weren't for Sister Ji Lin using that to protect you all the way, you might not have been able to come back. The doctor also said that you must not do this again in the future, it will shorten your life, understand?"
Kiana naggingly expressed her worries and showed her heartache without reservation.
Especially when talking about "shortening life," Kiana couldn't help but feel a sore nose and almost cried again.
Angel hurriedly comforted her:
"The Edge of Taixuan is very magical, don't worry, I know what's going on."
"You have no idea! I heard from them that the doll called Shamash beat Durandal and Delta down. It was just like cutting melons and vegetables. You rushed up to a terrifying enemy with a "wow," are you stupid?"
Kiana got angry as she spoke, and kept poking Angel's forehead with her fingers.
Angel was touched, but she felt a little choked, and spoke weakly.
"Although, I just don't want you to call me stupid..."
"Hey! What do you mean? Do you look down on me?"
Kiana read the implication and immediately felt that her kindness was taken for granted, and glared at Angel angrily.
Angel looked back innocently.
"Puff!" x 2
Ten seconds later, the two of them couldn't help laughing. The cautious attitude of both sides was put aside in this chuckle, and they returned to the intimacy of the past.
"Angel, I know that hatred is not something that can be put down just by saying so. I don't advise you to put it down, but I beg you to pay attention to your own safety next time. Only when you are alive can you do what you want to do."
Kiana didn't dare to reveal the truth she knew, but she still made the courage to persuade her. Because she was really scared, she didn't want to see her appearance that seemed to disappear at any time.
Angel felt warm in her heart.
Among the big three, only Kiana was completely innocent in the Nagazora City incident.
Of course, if you have to say that the Conquest Gem was left by Sirin, then Kiana, the life that extended from Sirin, should also be responsible, which makes sense.
But Angel didn't go so fair.
In her eyes, Kiana was innocent.
So this concern is even more rare. It comes from pure friendship and companionship, without any other malicious thoughts mixed in.
Angel sighed, not wanting to go deeper into this topic, and spoke.
"You still have time to talk about me? The things on you may be even more twisted and terrifying."
"... It's a bummer! At this time, shouldn't you hug me tightly with emotion, and then say that you can't live without me?"
"Accept reality, Kiana."
"Tsk! I'm not afraid! I'm Kiana Kaslana, nothing can defeat me! No matter what kind of secrets I have, I will step over them without changing my face, just wait and see!"
Kiana raised her head ignorantly, revealing her confident stupidity.
Angel reached out and grabbed the treasure chest that was close at hand. While satisfying the touch, she said slowly.
"I hope you can do what you say. I don't want to be busy cleaning up your mess."
"No way! Just trust me!"
Kiana patted Angel's head generously, but her eyes dimmed slightly.
'Actually, what truth could be more terrifying than your appearance?'
Angel's problem was the most serious in Kiana's eyes.
The disaster in Nagazora City was related to Mei and Bronya. How would Angel face this truth in the future?
Kiana shuddered just by imagining it.
Compared to this, what was the little thing that happened to her?
I traveled all over the country, and even if I had a hole in my head, I could continue on my way as if nothing had happened. For a girl like me who was born and raised like a weed, it doesn't matter what happens. How bad can it be?
"Why don't we make a promise!"
Kiana suddenly had an idea.
Angel was stunned.
"What agreement?"
"We have agreed that no matter what troubles and difficulties I encounter, I will bravely overcome them and return to everyone with a smile! If I do this, then you must do the same. No matter how bad things are in the future, you must cheer up again, never give up on yourself, and never put yourself in danger!"
"What kind of messed-up agreement is this?"
Angel didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
How could it be so simple? How could clones, Herrschers, and those blood debts from childhood be overcome by this kind of an agreement?
But what can be done? In Kiana's silly and serious eyes, Angel felt her nose a little sour.
'Silly girl, please be more careful. I am a cunning villain!'
Kiana saw that Angel seemed to be in a daze and had not received a response, so she pinched her cheek in dissatisfaction and pouted:
"Just tell me whether you agree or not!"
"...If I am strong, you must be strong too, is that what you mean?"
"That's right! We supervise each other and rely on each other. No matter what happens in the future, we must remember that there are still people waiting for us. We can't give up no matter what!"
"Okay, I promise you."
Angel touched the little finger that Kiana stretched out.
Hook and hang for a hundred years, and don't change.
The two hooked their little fingers and made an unreasonable agreement, but they really thought they had earned it. Both smiling faces were as childish as children.
