A date with Seele (continued)
Do you want happiness?
Bai Ge suddenly spoke up and asked.
Seele shuddered. She subconsciously looked around before realizing that the question was directed at her. She felt like a small animal that longed to be taken away but was also timid and shy.
She didn't understand the meaning of Bai Ge's question, but there was no doubt that she longed for happiness. Moreover, at this moment, Seele was filled with confusion and anxiety about the future, because even if Cocolia was arrested, she didn't know where she should go next.
Do you want happiness?
Bai Ge asked again.
Seele then realized that she hadn't answered yet, and she nodded vigorously.
"Very good, then hold my hand, and you will find happiness."
Bai Ge reached out his hand to Seele.
"Can I really do it?"
Seele stared blankly at Bai Ge's outstretched hand.
She noticed that the person was wearing high-quality white gloves, spotless and pure white. She couldn't help but worry that if she touched them, she might get them dirty.
Moreover, is happiness something that can be obtained so easily? Ultimately, do I even deserve to hold this hand?
"Of course, Seele, you certainly deserve it," Bai Ge affirmed, as if he could read her mind.
"Huh?"
"Because I came here specifically for you."
"For... me..."
At that moment, the girl was lost in thought. A hero appeared during the most desperate and darkest moment of her life.
Seele unconsciously grasped Bai Ge's hand; in that instant, she felt as if she were holding the whole world in her hands.
"How do you know Seele's name?"
"Well, because you're an important person to me."
This inexplicable kindness and gentleness left Seele at a loss for how to react, but...443 she found herself feeling familiar and close to Bai Ge for some reason.
It was as if they had actually spent a long time together in the past. Even though their minds couldn't remember, their bodies instinctively got used to and adapted to Bai Ge's presence.
The moment she grasped Bai Ge's hand, an indescribable sense of security filled Seele's entire body. The girl's trembling stopped, like a stray animal that had finally found its home.
"Hmm, Aili once said that cute girls should wear cute clothes, which is one of the truths of the world, and I completely agree with it."
"Cute clothes?"
Seele glanced at her clothes instinctively. She was wearing clothes that, even if complimented, couldn't be called cute. Cocolia wasn't exactly being kind to them.
These were more like rags than clothes; they were completely ill-fitting and filthy. The orphanage did have nice clothes, but the children only had the opportunity to wear them when guests came.
The goal, of course, is to make them appealing to the customers and then buy them.
(Sobbing...)
Seele looked sad and lowered her head in self-consciousness.
Bai Ge sighed. Wearing such clothes ruined even the cutest face. Cocolia, you really deserve to die! He would go to Mobius's laboratory to personally perform the surgery when he got back!
Then he snapped his fingers.
The power of the Herrscher of Reason is activated.
Suddenly, Seele's original clothes vanished, replaced by a strapless white gown with pure white Flowers of Creation blooming on its long train, symbolizing new life. (See image)
At this moment, Seele looked like she had transformed from an ugly duckling into a swan, like a princess from a fairy tale, and she was not overshadowed even when standing next to Bai Ge.
This is a costume constructed by Bai Ge based on the armor of Seele, the Herrscher of Death and Life from her previous life, also known as "Daughter of the Sea".
This operation is like Cinderella's magic, but the difference is that this magic will not disappear even at 12 o'clock, but will exist forever.
"Seele, is she really this cute...?"
"Wow, what a beautiful girl."
"Wow, so beautiful, I'm so envious."
At that moment, everyone in the orphanage stared in astonishment, Cocolia was also stunned. Only now did she realize the extent to which she had tarnished a gem.
"This, this is me?"
Seele's eyes widened. She subconsciously raised her hand to touch the full-length mirror that Bai Ge had created, as if she wanted to touch herself in the mirror, but she couldn't even recognize herself.
At that moment, the girl felt like she was dreaming, but Seele didn't know that her beautiful dream hadn't really begun yet.
"Ahem! The rest is up to you all. I'm going to enjoy my date now, bye~"
Bai waved to the soldiers behind him and said.
"Bai, Lord Bai Ge?"
Before anyone could react, Bai Ge casually swiped his hand across the air to open a spatial portal, then took Seele's small hand and stepped inside, leaving the Flame-Chaser Soldiers completely bewildered.
Oh no, our savior is gone already?
You really just came here to go on a date with that girl!
Goodness, it seems a new couple is about to be born. I wonder what the reactions will be when Lady Elysia, Dr. Mobius, Dr. Dr. Mei, and the others find out.
The dark portal didn't frighten Seele. Holding Bai Ge's hand, she felt like she could go anywhere.
However, the next second, Seele was still too shocked to speak. Although she had a premonition that she would be taken to a very strange place, the beautiful and unreal scene in front of her still made her pinch herself.
A crimson-gold sunset sky, incredible aerial pavilions, a beautiful and intricate garden maze, a huge white-gold dream castle, and countless blooming Abyss Flower of creation, and so on.
"Where... where am I?"
"Seele, welcome to Eternal Paradise!"
Bai Ge proudly pointed at all of this and said.
With the help of Vill-V and Mobius, and with Bai Ge having memorized all the necessary technical knowledge through ten reincarnations, this Elysian Realm was created long ago.
If you want to take a girl on a date, what place in the world is more suitable than this Elysian Realm that Bai Ge and Elysia created after traveling all over the world and extracting the most beautiful memories from their journeys?
This is a fairyland more beautiful than any fairy tale, an eternal paradise that you'll never want to leave once you step inside.
"This place was originally not open to the public; only Flame-Chasers were qualified to enter. But... Seele, you are an exception."
"..."
Seele was still in a daze, feeling as if she had come from the human world to heaven. She was so captivated by this Elysian Realm that she couldn't even speak.
Bai Ge chuckled softly. Everyone who has entered Elysian Realm so far has been like this, even Bai Ge and Elysia, who created Eternal Paradise, are no exception.
The moment they stepped into this place, all the troubles of the outside world became irrelevant to them.
However, at this very moment...
Gurgle gurgle~~
A cute, mournful sound came from the girl's abdomen.
Seele snapped out of her daze, covered her face with her hands, and was so embarrassed she wanted to disappear into the ground.
"Haha~ Well then, before we start playing, let's fill our stomachs first. I remember these are the things you like to eat, Seele."
"Huh? How did you know?"
Looking at the food that Bai Ge conjured up with a flick of his wrist, Seele couldn't help but swallow, surprised to find that it was all the food she wanted to eat. This feeling was too incredible.
She stared blankly at Bai Ge, even though she knew nothing about him, he knew her so well.
"Didn't I tell you? Because you're important to me, Seele, I know everything about you. Don't worry, I would never hurt you. And... right now, instead of questioning, you should enjoy my Elysian Realm."
"... Okay, Seele, I trust you."
For Seele, who was just in a predicament, Bai Ge's kindness was unreasonable and exaggerated. Logically speaking, she should have been suspicious and wary.
However, this was not the first time. The affection and intimacy he had accumulated for the White Youth over the ten reincarnations were deeply imprinted in Seele's instincts, even without his memory.
In addition, everything in front of them was just too wonderful.
It was so beautiful that even if Bai Ge told her it was a poisoned candy, Seele felt she would still eat it. After all, she had already lost everything, and if she could leave without pain in a beautiful dream, it would be a kind of happiness for her as well.

After that.
Seele played until he was exhausted, accompanied by Bai Ge, and finally fell asleep while watching a movie in the Eternal Paradise Cinema.
"It seems we'll have to call it a day."
"No... no... I can still..."
Seele was reluctant to let go and tried to hold on. This was the happiest day of her life, and she didn't want it to end.
"It's alright, Seele. Rest well. This beautiful dream will never end. I will make up for all the pain you've suffered in the past, so... get some sleep."
Bai Ge raised his hand and touched Seele's head. After hearing his words, the girl closed her eyes.
Even when she was asleep, her little hands were still tightly gripping the hem of his clothes, as if if she let go of Bai Ge, everything would vanish like a bubble.
