Original God: Cthulhu invades, Mondstadt is destroyed at the beginning
Chapter 52 Quarrel
Kevin was wearing a black robe and blending into the crowd, but he was not that conspicuous.
The most important thing about him and Bennett is the gray hair. Just cover this up.
The people of Mond probably wouldn't be able to recognize it.
This time, Kevin listened to the discussion calmly, not as manically as before.
Kevin didn't know what was wrong with him, but he felt that his personality was not as lively as before.
He was still the same person, but he felt like a different person.
Soon we arrived at the church door.
Asked if Barbara was still in the church.
The guard shook his head, pointed in a direction, and told Kevin the address of Barbara's home. Then he asked.
"She's been taken away by her mother now. What do you want from her?"
"It's okay. In that case, I'll come back later."
Kevin waved his hand and left the church, heading towards Barbara's house.
Arriving at Barbara's door, Kevin did not choose to go in directly.
He also hid in a window on the side.
The injuries on his body had already recovered after he left Barbara. And he became as strange as before. His strength and speed were several times greater.
It's strange, my body had been in this state before, but after seeing Barbara, it was back to its original state.
Barbara recovered soon after leaving.
It seems that Albedo was right. The key to all problems may lie with Barbara.
As he was thinking, Barbara's somewhat dissatisfied voice reached Kevin's ears.
"Mom, if you don't want to help, that's fine. But you also want me to lure Kevin and the others out. You told me that this is not the way to behave."
"You! Do you know who they are? They are all like rats crossing the street, and everyone wants to kill them. If you pin them down, won't this enhance the reputation of our Gunhild family?"
As they talked, they came to the window one after the other. Fortunately, Kevin was agile and nimble. He quickly hid at the edge of the window and barely held on to it, so as not to fall down.
The conversation was clear, and Kevin understood the general meaning.
His eyes sank slightly and he decided to eavesdrop here for a while.
Frederica, Barbara's mother, was furious at the moment, feeling that her daughter was not living up to her expectations.
Barbara confronted her mother for the first time, looking into her eyes without showing any weakness. She retorted: "Is reputation more important than friends?"
Frederica sneered: "Haha, you have only known each other for a day or two. You have become friends so quickly, Barbara, your friendship is quite cheap. At this rate, it won't be long before you can get married."
Barbara blushed, but still said stubbornly: "Even if we are not friends, it is wrong to do this. That incident is not their fault."
Frederica didn't dwell on this point, but still said in a tough tone: "Right or wrong, is that all you can say? No wonder Jean is always better than you. You're really embarrassing me."
Barbara's face froze, and she said, "Don't always use Qin to criticize me. It's okay. I don't care anymore."
The last sentence seemed very unconfident. Frederica saw it at a glance. She raised her lips and said, "Who said you are not as good as me? As long as you improve the family's reputation this time, you will definitely do better than Qin."
Barbara was shaken by what she said and remained silent for a long time.
From childhood to adulthood, Qin was like a child from other families. She was always talked about by her mother and the people around her.
That's fine. I often see my father praising Qin after the family split up. He never says anything about Barbara.
So Barbara always wanted to surpass Jean and achieve perfection in everything she did.
But it is impossible for a person to be perfect in everything. After trying hard, Barbara discovered in despair that she had too many shortcomings.
Because she was working in the wrong direction, Barbara was no longer favored by people around her.
Barbara also lost confidence in herself and felt that she did everything worse than Qin.
After learning that Jean had never been a pastor, Barbara decided to become one and do her best.
It means finding another shortcut to overtake on the curve.
This is why Kevin feels that Barbara attaches great importance to him.
Because the pressure is too great, if you can't even do this well, you can imagine that both others and yourself will be completely disappointed.
Because of this pressure, Barbara felt like she was no longer herself at that time.
Kevin was leaning against the window with a gloomy look on his face.
Am I going to lose even this girl who supports me?
What else can I do alone?
Kevin couldn't help asking himself this question. A feeling of loneliness lingered in his heart.
In the room, Barbara struggled for a long time, her fists clenched tightly unconsciously.
After a while, as if giving up everything, he smiled with relief and said, "If doing this kind of thing can make me surpass Qin, then I will be suppressed by her for the rest of my life."
Frederica's face, which had been confident of victory, suddenly turned ugly.
"Although you are still young, there are some things I have to tell you. This world is not just about right and wrong. There are not just good guys and bad guys. They may be unlucky, but that doesn't stop you from using them to gain benefits."
"I can't betray my friends," Barbara said bluntly.
Frederica's tone softened and she said, "If we can't do it, can we learn it? We are nobles. How can we be nobles if we don't know these?"
"Are you talking about the noble Lawrence? I'm sorry, you taught me the wrong way before. I will never do these things in my life. It doesn't matter if I am not a nobleman."
Barbara turned and left.
Frederica shouted from behind: "Barbara, sooner or later you will understand that what I said is all for your own good."
An argument broke out and both of them left unhappily.
Kevin, who was hiding in the corner and eavesdropping, had a barely perceptible smile on his face.
I have to say that Barbara really makes him confused.
In fact, there was nothing wrong with what Frederica said. Everything was developing in a good direction for her.
Even Kevin himself might not be as free and easy as Barbara.
But the girl refused in order to be true to herself.
He doesn't even want to care about the shadow of his first half of life.
Kevin just felt warm in his heart and an indescribable sense of relaxation all over his body.
The two of them said goodbye, Kevin did not stay any longer and left the house with Barbara.
on the street.
Kevin, who was following behind, saw Alice coming in front of Barbara.
And it seemed like he had already noticed Kevin and blinked at him a few times.
Instead of exposing the truth, he took Barbara to the church.
