A Little Sulk Under the Moon. / Dear Elysia.

Even Fu Hua was surprised by how quickly Gwen's control had improved.

That evening, Gwen did not go next door to chat with Welt Yang. Instead, he packed three or four times the amount of food that an ordinary person would eat and took it back to his dormitory.

Although the restaurant staff were Gwen, a prominent figure in the Schicksal Community, was bringing food for, they didn't press him for details.

Upon returning to his dormitory, Gwen did not immediately begin eating, but instead activated the system.

A moment later, Gwen disappeared from the dormitory.

The next moment, before Gwen could even see what was in front of him, a figure crashed into his arms. If dinner hadn't been left out, Gwen's clothes would probably have been the first to be "enjoyed".

With her arm bent, carrying dinner, Gwen wrapped it around the pendant clinging to her. Looking down, she saw a small white head bobbing up and down, and if she listened carefully, she could hear a series of inhalations, as if it were sniffing Gwen's scent.

Gwen turned his head slightly and saw Seele looking at him with concern.

He gave the girl a reassuring smile and gestured to the packed dinner in his hand.

Seeing this, Seele quickly stepped forward and took the dinner from Gwen's hands so that Gwen could free his hands.

"Alright, I'm fine now."

Patting the back of the Valkyrie Quicksilver hanging on him, Gwen asked with a smile.

However, the delicate face under the Valkyrie Quicksilver showed little joy; she frowned and stared at Gwen, saying:

"You are very tired right now, and you have recently suffered a serious injury."

"You can smell that?"

Feeling slightly uncomfortable under the gaze of those crimson eyes under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, Gwen rubbed the girl's head and asked with a smile.

"Um..."

Seeing that Gwen did not deny it, Valkyrie Quicksilver responded softly, then raised her little head and began to tug at Gwen's clothes amidst Seele's soft gasps, as if she wanted to see what was going on with Gwen.

"Don't worry, I'm perfectly fine now."

Gwen could only laugh as he removed the girl from his body, stopping her somewhat childish actions.

"Speaking of Valkyrie Quicksilver, when did you acquire the ability to sense my fatigue and the pain I've suffered without even looking through my blood?"

"Just."

Ignoring Seele's gaze, Valkyrie Quicksilver didn't resist Gwen's actions, but simply stared at him with her crimson eyes.

"I'm sorry to have worried you."

Seeing Valkyrie Quicksilver's expression, Gwen had no choice but to abandon the idea of changing the subject and spoke softly.

"...

You have no reason to apologize to us.

He gently shook his head under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, his gaze lowered.

"But you were indeed worried about me, weren't you?"

Sensing the girl's sensitive change in thought, Gwen, though unsure of what she was thinking, responded softly.

"..."

Upon hearing this, Valkyrie Quicksilver paused for a moment, then shook her head vigorously.

"Alright, Brother Gwen, let's have dinner under the Valkyrie Quicksilver..."

Seeing that the two seemed to have reached a stalemate, Seele, realizing that she seemed to be isolated from the conversation, spoke up at the right time and spread out the dinner that Gwen had brought on the table.

"If there's anything you need to say, let's talk while we eat."

"Seele is right, let's eat and talk."

Setting down the small figure under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, Gwen quickly snapped out of the peculiar atmosphere and said with a smile.

"Good."

Looking at the smile on Gwen's face, Valkyrie Quicksilver nodded slowly.

Although he had already spoken with Seele yesterday and told the two girls that everything was alright, Gwen still chose to come and see them today because he had acted as if he were entrusting his children to someone else.

And it seems that Gwen's preparations, made just to be on the safe side, put too much pressure on the two girls, to the point that they evolved new abilities under the Valkyrie Quicksilver.

During dinner, Gwen recounted his experiences to the two girls in relatively more detail.

With Seele's amazement and cooperation, Gwen's speech went fairly smoothly. However, the gaze that never left him under the Valkyrie Quicksilver still made Gwen feel somewhat uncomfortable.

" Under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, is something the matter?"

Meeting the girl's gaze that was fixed on him, Gwen took advantage of Seele's task of dealing with the after-dinner trash and asked her a question.

"I..."

Suddenly asked by Gwen, Valkyrie Quicksilver instinctively wanted to say something, but only managed to utter one word before falling silent.

"Well..."

Seeing the girl's hesitant expression, Gwen sighed softly and tried to soften his smile.

"Just say what you think, don't worry about me."

"I... I'm very worried about you."

Seeing Gwen's increasingly gentle smile, Valkyrie Quicksilver's apple bobbed slightly, and finally she mustered up her courage to speak.

"Yes, I can feel it. Valkyrie Quicksilver is very worried about me."

Gwen nodded, smiling as he looked at the girl.

Even though I can't smell the worry in the air, I can clearly feel the care under the Valkyrie Quicksilver.

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, the girl showed a look of surprise, but then tried to control her expression, as if she was worried about something.

However, the corners of her mouth, which she had managed to suppress, were quickly lifted again by two fingers—

"You have a beautiful smile, so why do you have to control yourself?"

Looking at Valkyrie Quicksilver, whose lips were upturned and whose little face had a somewhat comical smile, Gwen said with a smile.

"You like it?"

Upon hearing this, Valkyrie Quicksilver paused for a moment, blinked, and asked.

"Yes, everyone loves beauty, of course I like it."

Gwen nodded happily.

"Then I'll smile more for you."

Under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, his crimson eyes lit up instantly, revealing a big smile.

"Yes, there's no need to force it; just let it happen naturally."

Seeing that Valkyrie Quicksilver seemed to be in a better mood, Gwen stroked the silver hair that seemed to have improved in texture and said with a smile.

As the two were talking, Seele returned and looked at the two getting along well, her eyes flickering slightly.

"Seele is back?"

Without keeping Seele waiting, Gwen beckoned to the Seele to sit down beside him. Not in a hurry to go back, Gwen chatted with the two girls for a while, asking how they were getting along, if there was anything they weren't used to about living there, and if they had seen any suspicious people nearby.

Finally, after emphasizing that he wouldn't have been in any danger if he hadn't been saving people yesterday, and that there would be few things that could threaten him in the future, Gwen reassured the two girls before preparing to leave.

"By the way, Valkyrie Quicksilver, how much of the blood I prepared for you is left?"

Before leaving, Gwen suddenly remembered his physical condition and asked Valkyrie Quicksilver.

"There's still a lot left, I only drank a little bit."

Hearing this Valkyrie Quicksilver was still holding Gwen's hand and unwilling to let go, immediately replied, looking at Gwen nervously as if she was worried about something.

"Well, you might have to rely on the blood we prepared in advance to survive for the next few days—"

I recently received a powerful energy source, which has not yet been fully integrated, and some of the escaping energy is surging erratically within my body.

Although it won't harm me, I can't be sure if these incompletely integrated forces will affect you.

Therefore, I hope to wait until I've finished processing things on my end before providing you with blood.

Gwen explained succinctly.

"Yes, I will cherish this blood."

Hearing that Gwen wasn't going to take the blood, Valkyrie Quicksilver breathed a sigh of relief and nodded vigorously.

"But don't let yourself go hungry."

Smiling, Gwen gently patted the little girl's head under the Valkyrie Quicksilver and then looked at Seele on the other side.

"Seele, give me a little more time, and you'll be able to return to your original world soon."

"Yes, Seele believes in Brother Gwen."

Feeling the warmth from the large hand above her head, Seele, her face flushed, nodded vigorously and smiled sweetly. The strange emotions that had arisen in her heart because of Gwen's attention to the Valkyrie Quicksilver vanished instantly.

"Alright, I'm leaving now. Take good care of yourselves..."

With a final word, Gwen disappeared from the room under the watchful eyes of the two girls.

Chapter 267 Dear Elysia.

" Under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, shall we read a little longer or go to sleep now?"

After Gwen left, Seele looked Valkyrie Quicksilver and asked for her opinion.

Although they were worried about the two young children encountering danger while traveling alone, Seele and Valkyrie Quicksilver weren't idle while staying at the hotel—

Seele bought a lot of books from a nearby bookstore and, together with Valkyrie Quicksilver, increased her understanding of the world.

"It's getting late, go to sleep early."

When asked by Seele, Valkyrie Quicksilver gently shook her head.

Seele had no objection to this.

Soon, the room was plunged into darkness, with only two soft breaths allowing them to be aware of each other's presence.

Recalling Gwen's smile tonight, his words seemed to echo in her mind again, making it difficult for Valkyrie Quicksilver Jiujiu to fall asleep.

On the other bed, Seele also couldn't fall asleep as usual, and instead suffered from some unusual insomnia...

Or rather, he was caught up in a discussion with another version of himself—

"Hmph~"

You clearly wanted him to pay more attention to you, but you had to pretend to be very understanding, so she ended up stealing all your attention, didn't she?

Faced with Seele, Black Seele posed a sharp question.

"But...

"Under the Valkyrie Quicksilver, he really seems to need Gwen's care..."

Faced with questioning from her other self, Seele tried to argue her point, but she clearly lacked confidence.

"If you want something, go fight for it, grab it. Otherwise, are you just waiting for it to come to you by itself?"

Hearing Seele talk back, Black Seele became furious and angrily questioned her.

"But... Brother Gwen also talked to me a lot..."

"Seele said weakly."

Because he didn't want Seele to worry, Gwen didn't tell Seele about the current situation in the Eigenworld, especially about Bronya being rescued.

Therefore, neither Seele paid much attention to Bronya's situation, and Black Seele even felt a surge of anger because of Seele's timidity.

"You know it happened later!"
