She was telling herself this, that one of them was her teacher, and the other was her savior who had pulled her out of poverty, but…
Why is my heart still clenching?
Solita couldn't quite understand it, nor did she want to understand it too well.
She simply bit her lip lightly until her breathing gradually became heavier.
Sin seemed to sense Solita's inner turmoil and inner turmoil, making a crisp rustling sound as it nuzzled her head, as if comforting her.
Finally, Solita had some realization.
She felt the tremor of guilt and couldn't help but look at her own white palms.
Solita remembered that in the shattered space, her palms were covered with scars and strange colors, as if they had been bitten by zombies, and these covered her entire body.
Even magic couldn't erase the marks left by centuries of relentless torment in her heart, and she had long since grown accustomed to it.
Calamity was her name, and destruction was her only salvation.
Even though she had been reborn, Solita still knew clearly that it wasn't that she couldn't let go, but that she couldn't adapt to this light.
Even she, who was used to being alone, couldn't get used to Jiang Kehan having other people around her besides herself.
Why don't you ask me why Kehan isn't like me, wandering alone in the wilderness? That way, when we meet, we'll only have each other's shadows, right?
Solita narrowed her eyes slightly, constantly questioning herself, her inner madness and impatience once again taking over.
It even made her scream like a wounded young animal.
It was as if it was hiding tears, yet it was silent. Only evil remained still, as if it wanted to embrace the cub beneath it, quietly turning into a puddle, like a hat comforting Solita.
It seems to be saying, "I'm here, I'm here."
Jiang Kehan, who was talking to Bo Yuxue, also noticed something was wrong. She gave Bo Yuxue a look, signaling her to continue talking.
Then, taking advantage of Solita's lowered guard due to Bo Yuxue's self-talk, Jiang Kehan quietly approached her, squatted down, and took her hand.
"What's wrong with you? Are you thinking about the past again?" Jiang Kehan's voice was very soft. She looked at Solita's stubborn face and suddenly smiled.
“It’s okay. I used to be just as wary of my surroundings as you are, until I met everyone and the person who changed my life.”
"So, you can tell me anything you want."
"Like a little witch in a play who opens her heart."
Solita saw Jiang Kehan's face reflected in her eyes, as if she had returned to that mime play that was both fake and real. She closed her eyes and spoke as if in a murmur.
"I know."
I know how ugly I am now, and I also know how radiant you truly are.
But I just want to keep you by my side and recklessly steal your spotlight.
Witches are often obsessive, but that doesn't mean they are evil.
Bo Yuxue stopped talking to herself and looked at the scene with a somewhat sighing expression. However, she had already opened the alarm interface on her terminal and was just one call away from making the call.
If she had to choose between Jiang Kehan and her student Solita, she would still choose Jiang Kehan without hesitation.
Solita is just about business, while Jiang Kehan is about life.
I hope you can find a better path, at least so I don't have to call the police... Bo Yuxue clicked her tongue lightly; she quite liked this somewhat taciturn student.
“I’ve always known you’re a good person.” Solita suddenly laughed, a laugh as wild and unrestrained as when they first met.
"So, let me be the unchanging shadow behind you."
Jiang Kehan was a little confused. She looked helplessly at Bo Yuxue, who was much more experienced in riddles than she was.
She genuinely couldn't understand why Solitaire would suddenly say something like that.
Bo Yuxue shrugged, put the terminal away, and gave Jiang Kehan a slight smile.
"The sun doesn't need a shadow because it's always burning, but the moon does."
"For example, a little girl with an unbelievable amount of kindness."
Jiang Kehan frowned. She truly believed that she hadn't been indiscriminately showing kindness; she had simply done what she was supposed to do.
However, she still understood.
Solita seemed to want to stand behind her and shield her from the malice, which left her somewhat helpless.
Jiang Kehan looked at Solita and smiled.
"I don't need you to be my shadow, nor do I want you to be someone else's shadow, Solita."
“You are the best witch in my eyes—although you are naughty, disobedient, and a little crazy, I know that you are the truly kind one.”
To be honest, Jiang Kehan had a strange admiration for Solita.
Not everyone can stick to their principles through repeated cycles; at least Jiang Kehan doesn't think she can.
If she had experienced what Solita did, then it's not that the so-called silent film was just a way to punish those who hurt her.
Even innocent people like Dave are affected by her anger.
Yes, Jiang Kehan knew better than anyone that she was no saint; she could even be called despicable.
She also considered giving up while trying to save Solita.
"What kept me going to save you was the light in your heart."
"Do you remember Dave and her mother? And so many more innocent villagers?"
“In their eyes, I saw apology and unease towards you—if they were facing truly incorrigible bad people, all they would see would be hatred.”
Jiang Kehan looked at Solita with a bright smile, and spoke firmly when the other party was stunned.
"It is always you who saves yourself; I am merely giving you a chance to let go of hatred."
Do I... also have radiance?
Solita wasn't stupid; she squinted, wondering if she was being manipulated by Jiang Kehan.
But none of that matters anymore. If she could be persuaded by Jiang Kehan in a few words, she wouldn't be Solita.
But that doesn't mean she'll honestly say what's on her mind; she's just become more and more convinced of her own ideas.
I know that the jealousy and resentment in my heart will never go away, and I also know that Kehan, you need other people.
But even if it's a fight, even if it's a bloody battle, I'm prepared, hehe.
Solita smiled openly, like a child seeing a lollipop.
Behind you, there will always be a witch, haunted by evil spirits, clinging to you and refusing to let go.
This is retribution, your retribution is too late... but I forgive you, so don't even think about leaving me for the rest of your life.
"I understand, thank you." Solita pretended not to understand the meaning of "thank you" in witch social interactions, and said what she had been holding back in her heart.
She knew she might only have this one chance to confess, so she acted decisively!
Bo Yuxue couldn't help but applaud. She looked at Solita with satisfaction. Her student's stubbornness and cunning were simply natural-born to play with magic weaving!
In her magical perception, Solita's emotional changes were like a twisted mess.
Chapter 196 What the cat picked up, it was the cat's!
After comforting Solita, the three of them sat down around the small tea table, each lost in their own thoughts.
Solita couldn't help but steal glances at Jiang Kehan, thinking to herself, "I wonder what it feels like to hug Kehan. She must be fragrant and soft."
After figuring it out, she stopped worrying and simply wanted to get a little closer to Jiang Kehan.
Abbreviation: Shrimp Head.
And for some reason, Solita felt that she was particularly good at using the katana lately. Since she was about to buy her own staff, why not... give the katana a try?
Bo Yuxue rested her chin on her hand, staring at the two of them in a daze, especially at Solita's small, uncontrollable eyes: "Should I expel Solita from the sect first? Otherwise, I always feel like I'm ruining my reputation in my later years."
Although she is somewhat carefree and irresponsible, she runs a law firm based on integrity, and her moral character is widely recognized by her neighbors.
If you ask about Bo Yuxue from Nottler Street, everyone will give her a thumbs up and praise her as a good girl.
Well, after all, she only scams people she knows. And when she says she's scamming them, it's just that she makes the tasks more difficult than others, but the rewards are also higher!
Bo Yuxue just wanted to see an acquaintance looking a bit disheveled. What did she do wrong?
Would anyone not want to see Jiang Kehan's fair skin peeking out from her torn clothes after she completed the task?
Yeah, and there's also the way the other person wants to punch her but can only sulk in frustration.
Jiang Kehan had no idea what the two freaks beside her, who were skilled in the magic weaving faction, were plotting. If she had known, she would have turned and run away—neither of them were human.
She was just wondering if she could recruit a suitable cat ball for herself by relying on Bo Yuxue.
Recruiting Meowball is not easy. First, only the Great Witch can intercept Meowball's consciousness to the Silver Sea's main body and barely know what the other party wants to say.
Normal little witches, or even medium-sized witches, rely almost entirely on body language to communicate with cats. It's easy for them to misunderstand what I say as going east, resulting in completely nonsensical communication.
However, some Meowballs do know witch language and can understand what witches say, but these are the refined individuals among the Meowballs and are rarely seen on ordinary days.
Jiang Kehan had no way of finding such a cat ball and could only hope that Bo Yuxue, who had extensive connections, would have a solution.
As for why Jiang Kehan doesn't learn cat language?
Although the cat ball has its own language system, and it's quite sophisticated, it's difficult for the witch to learn.
Not to mention that the language logic of catballs, which originated from different rules, is completely different, even the language logic of catballs of the same kind is dynamically changing.
Their language is more of a codebook based on the situation in the Silver Sea, which is then expressed in reality as if they were sending telegrams.
However, the situation in Baiyinhai is constantly changing, which means that even if you figure out the codebook one second ago, it will be useless the next second.
Therefore, Meowball Language has always been a very mysterious subject, and only some witches can understand what it is saying through their talent.
"By the way, Bo Yuxue, can you find a catball that speaks witch's language?" Jiang Kehan looked at Bo Yuxue and asked somewhat solemnly.
Finding a suitable Meowball has a significant impact on her strength. She has already calculated that with a suitable Meowball, her strength can increase by 30%!
"Huh? Let me think about it." Although Bo Yuxue was surprised that Jiang Kehan wanted to find Miaoqiu, she still thought about it responsibly when she saw the serious expression on Jiang Kehan's face.
"Sigh, I've thought of a half-baked solution. Do you have any dried fish?"
After a brief moment of thought, she looked at Jiang Kehan with a strange expression and slowly said.
"Dried fish?" Jiang Kehan didn't quite understand why the other party wanted this, but she still obediently took out a bag from her personal space.
