Traveling Back to Cecilia's Past (Continued)

"Phew~ Thanks Cecilia, I'm finally saved. I was prepared to be sent away once."

"... Anyway, come and rest at my place first. What exactly did you eat? It's so bad that even the Zero Rated Power of the Black Abyss White Flower couldn't cure it in one go."

"Um, if I had to put it that way... a girl's love?"

"What a terrible love."

Cecilia helped Bai Ge to her villa.

St. Freya Academy covers an extremely large area, and each of the teacher Valkyrie has a villa. Cecilia, who is S-Rank Valkyrie, naturally enjoys even better treatment.

Besides, she's Theresa's best friend.

Bai Ge lay weakly on the sofa, continuing to use the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death to heal himself, while feeling both amused and exasperated.

"Oh dear, it's been so long since I've had a near-death experience like this. The last time was when I used the Origin Authority for Aili. Speaking of which, it even came with a weakness debuff. How long is this going to last?"

"Um, I always feel that Teacher Bai Ge is quite used to near-death experiences. Is that just my imagination?" Cecilia said, pouring Bai Ge a cup of hot water that could cure all diseases.

"Just call me Bai Ge. 'Teacher' sounds really weird. I don't think I was a very good student back then. But... thinking about it carefully, I don't think I care much about death now. After all, I'm not going to die anyway."

Bai Ge took a sip of hot water and said.

For him now, death is not much different from a minor injury.

Because of Shesha Honkai Beast abilities, Bai Ge has gained almost unlimited resurrection abilities.

As someone who also possesses the Shesha Hyper-Evolution Factor, Mobius's resurrection is not as perfect as Bai Ge's.

Mobius's resurrection requires a large amount of Honkai Energy and will cause his body to become younger. If he is resurrected too many times, he may regress into an infant or even a cell.

However, Bai Ge, who possesses the power of the Herrscher of Life and Death, can offset this cost because he can manipulate his own biological cells and freely control the growth of his body.

In addition, Bai has actually had many death experiences.

This has led him to become accustomed to it, and even... Bai Ge no longer takes death, something that has terrified almost everyone since ancient times, seriously.

"There's no need to be afraid of death; it's just a short sleep, at least for me."

Bai Ge raised his hands and said.

When you have too much of something, you subconsciously stop appreciating it, even if it's just a person.

Bai Ge, who possesses almost unlimited resurrection abilities, naturally disregards the preciousness of life, but this only applies to himself.

He would never forget that the lives of people other than himself, especially those he cared about, were still only one.

"If Mei and the others heard you say that, they would definitely feel sorry for them," Cecilia said.

"Because people always worry too much."

"But you really are someone who always makes people worry, eh~"

Cecilia couldn't help but sigh. She had heard quite a bit about Bai Ge's experiences in the Previous Civilization.

Reflecting on the White Youth's other experiences, Cecilia realized that he was always on the road, always in the eye of the storm, as if the world revolved around him.

As an S-Rank Valkyrie, she has also had many life-or-death moments, but compared to Bai Ge's experiences, those moments are so mild that they seem insignificant.

This has led to a situation where anyone who knows Bai Ge can't help but worry about him.

Even if you don't see him for two or three hours, you can't help but wonder if Bai Ge is doing something dangerous again, like saving the world or saving others.

"Cecilia, you like me a lot, don't you?"

Bai Ge, holding a teacup, suddenly spoke.

"!!!"

Cecilia shuddered, nearly dropping the teapot in her hand, and hurriedly looked away.

This reaction was the best answer. She had indeed been troubled by this recently, but whenever she saw this White Youth, she couldn't help but feel goodwill towards him.

In particular, an accident occurred between the two of them.

If she were an ordinary girl, she might take this opportunity to date Bai Ge, because given his personality, he certainly wouldn't mind taking responsibility for the mistakes he made unintentionally.

But Cecilia is different.

Their positions and identities did not allow for this, so she felt more troubled than anything else by this uncontrollable affection.

"First of all, let me apologize to you, Cecilia. Actually, your feelings for me are not from your own heart, but because of the coercive effect of the Schariac Stigmata, something like... a curse."

Bai Ge said apologetically.

"Huh? A curse?"

Cecilia was taken aback.

Bai Ge nodded.

He then told Cecilia everything about Misteln and how the holders of the Schariac Stigmata would uncontrollably develop feelings for her. Cecilia was completely stunned.

"So that's what happened."

"Yeah, that's cunning, isn't it? But I'm working on a solution to this problem right now. Give me some more time."

"... Bai Ge, you really are a good person. You could have kept quiet about this. No, if it were anyone else, I think they definitely wouldn't have said anything."

Cecilia's gaze softened.

Although she is also Valkyrie who fights to protect all that is good, she is not so naive as to be unaware of human malice.

Admitting one's mistakes—although it's a simple thing, most people can't do it. Compared to admitting mistakes, most people choose to hide them.

Cecilia could see the beauty and nobility within the White Youth before her, and she couldn't help but recall the Great Honkai that marked their first meeting.

Even with countless reasons to resent the world, Bai Ge still chose to fight to protect that one and only beautiful thing. The boy's radiant humanity dazzled her.

Therefore...

"Bai Ge, I don't think you need to worry too much about the Stigmata. It's fine to leave it alone," Cecilia said with a smile.

"Um, Cecilia, are you serious? If this isn't resolved, you might develop feelings for me uncontrollably, even against your own will, and subconsciously agree to any unreasonable requests I make."

"But Bai Ge, you wouldn't do that, right?"

Cecilia said with great certainty.

If it were anyone else, they would definitely take advantage of the situation, but she believed that Bai Ge would never do such a despicable thing. This proud and noble person could not do such a thing.

"And even if I develop feelings for you, so what? It's not a bad thing, is it?"

Cecilia was no longer troubled. She decided to accept the influence of the Schariac Stigmata. After all, it wasn't like she had developed feelings for a villain instead of a bomb.

The person she uncontrollably developed feelings for was someone who deserved to be treated gently by the world, a beautiful, angelic person.

Although Bai Ge used the word "curse" to describe this affection, Cecilia no longer felt that way.

She was certain that she hadn't given her affections to the wrong person, and even without the influence of the Stigmata, anyone who had come into contact with this White Youth would eventually fall in love with him.

· ······Requesting flowers····· ·

Like a beautiful young girl, as radiant as a blooming flower.

"... Thank you, Cecilia."

Bai Ge breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a weight lifted from his heart. He thought he should perhaps be more confident.

Has anyone ever regretted having feelings for themselves, or regretted liking themselves?

The answer is, of course, no.

Even a certain Archbishop of Schicksal deeply regrets not becoming friends with Bai sooner, resulting in his current miserable situation, where he is forced to eat dog food by Bai every day.

"However, one thing at a time, I will still find a way to solve the problem of the Schariac Stigmata!" Bai Ge said seriously.

"Eh~ still so stubborn, oh well." Cecilia said, both amused and exasperated.

The atmosphere between the two then softened considerably.

The awkwardness we felt when we met recently is gone.

Then they started chatting. Bai Ge recounted some interesting things that happened to her in the Previous Civilization, and Cecilia also talked about her past, but she stopped talking at a certain point.

"What should I do? I don't think I have anything to share."

Cecilia was a little embarrassed.

From the perspective of the Current Civilization's age, she is much older than Bai Ge, but compared to the latter's exciting past, which could fill a thick adventure novel, she is much older.

Cecilia found that she didn't have much to say.

"How could that be? After living for so long, shouldn't everyone have dozens or hundreds of memories that can be remembered for a lifetime?" Bai Ge tilted his head and said with a matter-of-fact expression.

... 0

"Ahem! Bai Ge, not everyone can travel back in time, starting from when they were ten years old, taking a girl around the world, saving the world, and then going to a parallel world or something."

Cecilia coughed lightly and said, "For most people, today is like yesterday in a cycle, and the norm is to live the same monotonous days every day."

This is especially true for her.

In fact, Cecilia Sanya's fate had always been manipulated, and it goes without saying who did it was some wicked fool.

As the daughter of Sanya, she was destined to become the Valkyrie of Schicksal from the moment she was born. Later, due to her extremely high talent, Otto's modification surgery transformed her blood into holy blood.

Due to the preciousness of the Holy Blood, Cecilia was confined to the Schicksal Headquarters and rarely went out into the outside world.
