Skretil's Ignorance Walker

The sun has set, and a new moon looks down on the world in the night sky. Fafuwei and Vera are still repairing on the mountainside.

Due to climbing all day and not sleeping all night, Fa Fuwei was already driven by her trapped thoughts. When they were about to climb up again, Fa Fuwei lost her focus and almost fell down.

Fortunately, Vera caught Fafuwei in time. After seeing that Fafuwei was in poor condition, Vera took Fafuwei back to the small platform where they had rested.

"Thank you for saving me. I'm fine. Let's keep climbing."

Seeing Vera place herself on the platform, Fafuwei took a rest and prepared to continue climbing the mountain, but was stopped by Vera.

"Uh-huh……"

Vera shook her head. Fafuwei was very tired at this time and she needed sleep.

"Are you worried about me? I'm fine."

Fafuwei didn't want to give up just like that. If Lu Ren was really among the boulders, she should hurry up and rescue her.

"Uh-huh!"

But Fafuwei was still stopped by Vera. If Fafuwei was in her current state, she would be exhausted and fall down before she climbed up. She didn't want Fafuwei to risk it.

"..."

Neither of them could convince the other, so they remained in a stalemate. After a period of stalemate, Fafuwei finally couldn't defeat Vera and had to admit defeat.

"Okay, let's take a rest first and go rescue Lord Lu Ren early tomorrow morning."

"Uh-huh."

Seeing Fa Fuwei give up, Vera pulled Fa Fuwei down the mountain quickly. Even though it took them a whole day to climb to the mountainside, Vera's descent was much faster than their climbing speed. After a while, the two of them It returned to the ground again.

"No, no, we can rest directly on the mountainside! Why did you bring me down directly? Don't we have to climb it again?"

Fafuwei, who was taken directly back to the starting point by Vera without saying a word, was a little angry at this time, but Vera didn't care about that. She took the angry Fafuwei to a cave in the surrounding forest.

"Is this... your residence?"

Looking at the small cave in front of her, Fa Fuwei suddenly understood what Lu Ren once told her about the savage life. Although Lu Ren did not tell her the specific details, there should be no difference at this time.

"this is?"

Walking into the cave, Fafuwei saw many scratches carved on the wall. She observed these scratches carefully. Some seemed to record dates or certain quantities. They consisted of four scratches plus one horizontal scratch. However, after recording dozens of groups, it was no longer recorded. Maybe it could not be engraved, or maybe the person who engraved it no longer had the energy to remember those things.

On the other side were some ancient texts. Fafuwei couldn't understand any of them, but she could see that many of them were engraved with the same words. These words were repeated many times, directly covering a wall. Filled up.

Fafuwei also found some very familiar words in the corner, which seemed to be written in Common Language. The handwriting was very poor and crooked and difficult to read. But Fafuwei still reluctantly recognized it.

"Vera... Lu Ren... Fafuwei?"

Hesitantly reading out these words, Fafuwei was surprised to find that these were actually their names. It seemed that someone had taught Vera how to write these words. She had also practiced these names, and these names also filled the whole space. The whole wall.

But who taught her? And why were only three of them taught their names?

"Mmmm."

At this time, Vera came over and handed Fafuwei some fruits. Fafuwei saw that they were all red fruits. On weekdays, Lu Ren drank the most juice squeezed from it, and Fafuwei also drank it often. .

"Thank you."

In the past, Fafuwei and the others gave food to Vera, but now it's the other way around. Maybe Vera wanted to express her gratitude to her.

"No no no."

Afterwards, Vera walked inside the cave and patted a stone covered with animal skin, apparently intending to invite Fafuwei to sit there.

"Thank you very much."

Complying with the other party's invitation, Fafuwei straightened the long dress Lu Ren bought for her and sat down. Vera also sat next to Fafuwei at this time.

"Who taught you to write our names?"

While eating, in order to ease the speechless atmosphere, Fafuwei decided to find something to talk about, such as the wall with their names engraved on it.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!"

After hearing Fa Fuwei's question, Vera stood up excitedly, then ran to the wall where their names were engraved, and pointed at Lu Ren's name.

"Did Master Lu Ren teach you this?!"

"Uh-huh!"

After getting the answer from the other party, Fa Fuwei was even more surprised. When did Lu Ren teach her, and those carvings seemed to be quite old, so they couldn't have been taught to her thousands of years ago...

Thousands of years ago...

At this time, Fa Fuwei thought of a possibility that she herself could not believe.

"Well, Vera...could it be said..."

She spoke slowly with a bit of hesitation. Fa Fuwei prayed in her heart that it would not be what she imagined, and the other party seemed to see what she wanted to say, and just stood there quietly waiting for her to finish. .

"Could it be that...you met Master Lu Ren a thousand years ago?"

"Ah."

After receiving an affirmative answer without hesitation, Fafuwei couldn't believe her ears. She hoped that the other party was lying to her, but various signs showed that the other party was telling the truth.

In that case, wouldn't Lu Ren have spent thousands of years alone in the boulder? And why is she in that boulder?

Fafuwei stood up excitedly, and all the red fruits originally placed on her lap fell to the ground.

"!!!"

Excitedly grabbing the other person's shoulders, Fa Fuwei didn't know what she was doing at this time. She just grabbed the other person hard and looked at him with extremely serious eyes.

"Um..."

Perhaps because of being scratched by Fafuwei, Vera began to struggle, and Fafuwei, who came to her senses, also let go of her hands.

"Feel sorry……"

After apologizing to the other party, Fafuwei squatted down sadly and buried her head in her arms.

"Well……"

Vera wanted to comfort her, but didn't know how to comfort her. He could only squat beside Fafuwei and gently stroke her head.

"This feeling...just like Master Lu Ren."

"Ah."

Fafuwei, who was touched by Vera, felt a little better now. She felt that the other party's technique was exactly the same as Lu Ren's.

"Has Master Lu Ren ever touched you like this?"

"Ah."

"That's it."

At this time, Fafuwei raised her head and silently looked at Vera beside her. Vera was a little embarrassed by her stare and turned her blushing face away.

"Vera, do you... like Master Lu Ren?"

"Um?!"

After hearing this, Vera immediately blushed and turned to look at Fafuwei, but Fafuwei did not avoid it. She was looking directly at Vera at this time.

"Uh-huh."

"Really, that's right."

Fafuwei said with some relief, no wonder, she had long felt that something was wrong with Vera towards Lu Ren, but now everything is clear.

Lu Ren sealed the devil here thousands of years ago, but she herself was sealed in the boulder for some reason. She previously thought that the devil was sealed in the boulder, but in fact it was not.

And Vera has protected Lu Ren here for thousands of years. What is a more affectionate confession than long-term protection? Not to mention more than a thousand years.

Fafuwei didn't know what Vera and Lu Ren had gone through thousands of years ago, but she knew that Vera in front of her valued Lu Ren as much as she did, otherwise she wouldn't have been here to protect Lu Ren.

"Let us get along well from now on."

Fafuwei stretched out her hand with a smile. Under Vera's confused expression, she took the initiative to hold Vera's hand.

"Maybe... we will be a family in the future."

Fafuwei smiled, seeing Fafuwei smiling, Vera also laughed too.

In this way, the cave at night was filled with the light laughter of girls.

And late at night, the girls also lay together and fell asleep, and just when they fell asleep. Somewhere in the forest, the demon that had consumed all its magic power just after the seal was released was killing all the creatures it saw to replenish its magic power. It vowed to take the souls of all these elves into its hands.
