Chapter 84 Alice’s Question
"It's just, Aaron, I want to talk to you about something else..."
Seeing Alice's faint eyes, Aaron's heart moved.
Late at night in an ancient house, a lonely widowed woman lives in the same room. The two of them are still legally married, and now Alice takes the initiative to talk to her about something else...
If you tell me this, I won’t feel sleepy anymore!
But then, Aaron looked at Alice's face and vaguely felt that it was not what he imagined.
"What is it?"
"It's about you, Mr. Aaron."
"I?"
"Yes, I have been thinking about a question during this time, a..." Alice paused, "a very serious question."
Looking at Alice's pretty and serious face, Aaron had an ominous premonition for no reason.
Alice seemed to have no intention of waiting for his response, and said to herself: "I have always been thinking, Mr. Aaron, are you the Aaron I understand?"
Her fingers were intertwined uneasily, and her joints were white from exertion, and she was obviously a little nervous.
She has been holding this question in her mind for several days, even for a while, but it was not until today that she finally gathered the courage.
Aaron was silent and had to lower his eyes and cough a few times, not daring to look at Alice.
When Alice asked him questions at this time, it already showed that she had noticed that he did not have full confidence in his acting skills.
In fact, it is difficult to fool someone who is already suspicious.
Aaron had indeed prepared several sets of rhetoric for himself in advance. After all, he was a senior otaku, and he could use many of the usual routines and rhetoric in Internet articles. But at this time, he had to retreat under Alice's gaze.
Alice made no urging or request, just stared, but this was more accurate than Ron's lie detector.
Witnessed by the earth and the stars, they reached an extraordinary engagement, which was more reliable than any sweet words or vows of eternal love.
Under the watchful eyes of the extraordinary contract and Dagos, they are destined to be together from now on.
Even if I can deceive her for a while, can I deceive her for the rest of my life?
In the dim old house, there were only a few poor candlesticks lit. The candlelight flickered slightly, casting the blurry silhouettes of the two people on the wall.
And in the dim candlelight, sat a poor couple.
Aaron opened his mouth several times, but in the end he didn't say a word, and could only let out a long sigh.
When Alice asked this question, she probably already had the answer in her mind.
And when Aaron didn't respond immediately, he probably knew in his heart that there was no room for mediation.
Alice was silent, Aaron was speechless, one stared at him, and the other stared down at the table.
After a long time, Aaron finally spoke: "I..."
He couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. After all, he was still a theoretical person. No matter how many pictures he made up in his mind, no matter how much mental preparation he made, in the end...
"Mr. Aaron, I'm very happy that you didn't lie to me. Well, let's call you Aaron." Alice took the initiative to say.
"When did it start..."
"In the past few days, I have actually had doubts before, but..." Alice's voice became lower and lower as she spoke, and finally became inaudible.
In the next breath, her voice became a little louder again, "However, if it weren't for a different person, it would be difficult to explain the changes before and after, right? Mr. Aaron?"
"In the tavern, that was the first time I met you. Maybe you were... oh, that shouldn't be you, right? Your hair is messy, your eyes are red from drinking, and you can't even speak fully... I swear on the name of my family. , when you came over to talk to me smelling of alcohol, if Uncle Ed hadn't stopped you, I would have punched you a few more times!"
When Alice said this, she couldn't help but wrinkle her nose, and a trace of irritation flashed in her eyes.
How could the dignified eldest lady of the Iris family endure such anger?
"I don't think someone who does this will become who you are now... In fact, the gap between the two is a bit too big."
Aaron remained silent. In fact, he was completely unaware of this subtle but fatal problem at first.
The original owner was a prodigal and a heavy drinker.
But he... I'm sorry, he really doesn't know how to drink, or in other words, he has no awareness of drinking at all.
Of course, this is only one aspect, or in other words, this is just one of the most obvious omissions.
During this period of time, faced with endless crises, faced with the Creeping Hand, Baals, natural disasters, throats of death, and others, faced with life and death choices again and again, he could not pretend, and he forgot to pretend.
As time passed, no one reminded him, and he completely forgot about it.
Aaron's forehead began to sweat, and he forced a smile and defended: "This seems to be explained, right? For example..."
"Yes, of course it can be explained. After all, you have experienced the cult ritual. This is indeed a very good excuse." Alice nodded seriously, "But Mr. Aaron..."
At this point, her eyes became complicated, she forced a smile, and said softly: "You are from somewhere else, right?"
Like five thunderbolts, Aaron was still stunned despite being mentally prepared. An inexplicable chill surged into his heart. At this moment, he felt that Alice's complicated eyes had seen through almost everything about him. He had to lower his head again, feeling in his heart Like a mess.
No matter which time traveler it is, most of them will be speechless after someone reveals their identity, right?
"Sometimes you talk nonsense and say things that I don't understand at all. Others may regard them as slang around Leiden City," Alice bit her lip, "But I kept it secret from Ed and Daige." Uncle Si, secretly asked a few servants in the firm who grew up in Leiden City, they..."
She shook her head slowly and hesitantly, "They haven't heard of it... Of course, these are small things, which can all be explained. Mr. Aaron, for example, you survived the cult ritual and gained additional extraordinary powers." information.
But you don’t seem to understand this world at all. Living in the Kingdom of Algrant, as a noble, you have never been exposed to the extraordinary aura, and you don’t even know much about extraordinary knowledge. In fact, Master Sart once talked to me It has been mentioned, half-jokingly, that your understanding of the supernatural world is as pure as your soul. "
Alice's tone became lower, but she still continued: "You know nothing about this world, which is why you did not hide your abilities. Don't forget, Mr. Aaron, bronze-level extraordinary beings may not have abilities, and You, a black iron level transcendent, already have abilities."
Aaron, who was bowing his head in silence, suddenly felt the coldness of his palms, and he had to raise his head to look at her again.
That's Alice's hand.
"My wife and my food... smell so good," Alice said with difficulty, "Although I don't know what it means, they should come from the same place, right?"
Alice, who has part of the mountain giant's bloodline and can kill Ed with one sword, gently holds Aaron's hand.
She didn't exert any force, but she was shaking a little.
