019 Clear Snow Night
Dorn originally thought that even though Vivian really came out of that [Concerto Forest], even if the system did not explicitly prohibit Vivian from returning to the ruins.
But it is still dangerous to take the fairy lady back to that ruin.
What if Vivian could get in but couldn't get out in the end?
And at present, the Fairy Miss has broken the curse of completely zero existence.
It can be seen by others at first. Although the time it sees is very random, it usually cannot last for too long, and sometimes it simply shows a vague shadow.
But at least it can be seen by others and can socialize with the residents in the town normally.
Even if the facts are true as the comments given by the system say—
[The impact of the ruins will eventually be removed from the ruins.]
Even Vivian's current state of existence is now the upper limit of effect that can be achieved after "making others believe that Vivian exists".
But there is no doubt that the cost-effectiveness of taking Vivian to the [Concerto Forest] and taking risks to find a way to completely lift the curse is weakened to a certain extent.
All of the above are Dorn’s own considerations and concerns.
During the next communication with Vivian, he chose to convey these words.
However, the fairy lady responded to him like this-
"Puchi." Vivian laughed first, then became a little more serious. "Donn, you always like to worry about this and that. When you encounter something, you always think about fighting it yourself first. But this is very tiring, isn't it?"
Dorn: "Uh..."
"Actually, I know that you think about these things because you are worried about me. But you should trust me occasionally and rely on me." When Vivian continued to talk, she bulged her cheeks with a little dissatisfaction:
"Really, I'm very awesome too! Don't underestimate me, I can help you a lot."
Dorn stopped talking.
What the fairy lady said is not false.
As she said herself, she is indeed quite awesome.
As far as Dorn knows, Vivian's health is more than 6,500 points, which is much higher than Dorn at this stage.
Moreover, when the fairy lady was waving the heavy ebony staff to fight, she had a strong close-range destruction ability, and was no less than Clos who liked to rush around the enemy pile.
Also, as a mage, Vivian only mastered two skills of his own ability enhancement.
One is defensive [Defense and Protection], and the other is offensive [Strong Attack and Protection].
But judging from the experience of Dorn and Vivian fighting side by side, the fairy lady used to defend herself when using these two skills to fight.
The strongest effect of these two skills was not exerted.
The upper limit of Vivian's strength is still unknown.
According to Dorn's objective speculation, if you compare acquaintances, if you feel that the fairy lady is fully powered, the explosive combat power may be able to compete with Adele.
So, overall, even if you don’t consider the mystery and passiveness with zero presence, Vivian’s own combat strength is beyond doubt. She is definitely a powerful teammate who is worthy of teamwork and adventure.
Seeing Dorn being spoken by himself, he looked shaken and silent.
The fairy lady looked a little proud and cunningly and raised the corners of her mouth.
This kind of playful and lively expression like a little girl was basically invisible on the face of Vivian, who was always timid. However, recently, when she was alone with Dorn, she often showed similar expressions.
Then, Vivian's expression became a little more serious. Perhaps the girl's face always changed when she said this.
She continued: "And Done, I don't want to stay here and wait for you. In autumn, I sit under the big banyan tree and sometimes I feel that you may always...never come back."
"I'm a little scared, Dorn."
"It's very dangerous in the ruins, right? If something happens to you... I will not be able to forgive myself. [I should have helped Dorn], [I should have stood by Dorn], I will think like this, I will always think like this."
Vivian said this, the blue eyes of the lake were stubborn and serious, but at the same time they were like a moor of moonlit lake water, flashing gently.
She reached out and stroked the silver-white hair in her ears, then leaned her head gently against Donn's shoulders naturally.
"So...reassure me, stupid," she said.
The snowy nights in Eton Town are very cold and quiet.
It was so quiet that Dorn and Vivian could hear the heartbeat and breathing close to each other.
After a long time, Dorn exhaled a breath of turbid air and finally made a decision: "I understand."
He was convinced by Vivian.
If anyone in the world can easily persuade Dorn, it is probably only Vivian.
After a long time, snow began to fall over Eaton again.
The originally shallow snow was gradually piled up, and the oil-burning horseshoe oil lamps outside the house were not extinguished. The flames in the lampshade leaped and emitted a soft yellow light, making the snowy night in the town appear clear and thorough.
...
In this way, the matter of Dorn and Vivian going out to explore the [Concerto Forest] was finalized.
And what we are currently waiting for, the summons of the Holy See or the research results of Teacher Clark, Dorn intends to put aside the situation.
He didn't have any pressure on him:
"I've been waiting in Eaton for so long, but they didn't come to me in time. We can't give up our normal life just because we have to wait for them."
So at noon the next day, Dorn and Vivian packed up their things and prepared to officially embark on the journey.
Anyway, there is "Alice's Bedtime Reading", so the preparation before going out is actually very convenient.
Whether it is something you must bring or something you can not bring, you can throw it directly into the story world without much effort.
Because the dragon girl in the book will help organize it...
The restaurant was not surprised by the chef's trip again, and there was no big surprise.
Donn was not worried about the business problems of the restaurant after he left. As usual, the store manager and the others would deal with it.
The only thing worth worrying about is that it seems that the only bells that have been newly added to the restaurant.
This female thief who washes hands with golden basin has the current career planning direction of winemakers and bartenders.
At the front end time, Dorn has turned on [Cooking Power] as much as possible, demonstrating the brewing process of other wines and the preparation methods of various cocktails to the bell.
To be honest, the bell is actually pretty good.
But now that Donne left, there seemed to be no one who had a high level of experience in brewing and mixing wine.
When Dorn was away, during the winemaking and mixing practice, Ling could only rely on personal insights to improve her level.
"Okay, okay, brother, don't stop mother-in-law and mother anymore. I have studied so seriously recently. Even if you are not here, there will be no problem! If you continue, it will be dark."
Before leaving, Dorn specifically grabbed the bell and gave a few more advices, but was interrupted by the other party.
"Then I hope you remember what you are saying now, and when I come back, I will see your progress." Dorn could only end the topic helplessly.
