He and It

"Many times, I just sit in the dark without saying a word or a word." Echidena said slowly, "For a while... for a while, I will look forward to Cilicia." The sacrificial season. According to the instructions of the gods, they must offer generous sacrifices to me. The priests they choose will light the sacrificial fire and speak prayers to me. Once that time comes, I will be very happy. Because this is the only human being who will take the initiative to talk to me in a year, even if he has great fear and reluctance in his heart."

Xie Ning remained silent and did not interrupt his confession.

"Of course, later I got tired of it and hated my lowliness. This is not the attitude Echidna should have. I should be as stone-hearted and not lose my dignity for this. After all, this is what I am. There’s not much left.”

The winner was selected, and while ribbons and flowers were flying, the audience was cheering heartily.

"But here you are, the first time you saw me, you boasted about my beauty." The snake demon's tone suddenly became high-pitched, "I thought it was an illusion, a trick played by the New God to play a trick on me. , but you are real. You look at me with admiration, describe my body and soul with a brush, and treat me with sacrifices to the gods. I really can't ask for more."

His tone was happy and his voice was hoarse: "I can recognize lies without divine power. In the past, there were too many smooth-talking people who suffered a vicious fate and were reduced to my underground palace. In order to survive, they all praised me in unison. My strength and greatness, playing the lyre in front of me, composing long poems... They thought I was blind! They thought I couldn't see the flattery in their eyes and the fear behind the flattery. But you, Dolos, you are different Ah, your eyes contained a golden heart, which was so heavy that I couldn't believe it was real. From that moment on, I secretly swore in my heart that even if I couldn't..."

Xie Ning hurriedly clenched the drawing book in her hand. He could foresee that Echidena was about to say something that he couldn't accept, but at the same time he couldn't refuse.

Before the other party could get ahead of him, he said loudly: "It's okay!"

Echidna was about to say, "Even if I can't accept your love and become your partner, I will fulfill all your wishes. Don't get me wrong, it's not because I don't love you, it's just because your body is weak , The soul is fragile and cannot bear it" - but these words were interrupted by Xie Ning in a panic.

"...It's okay," Xie Ning hurriedly added, "Aren't we okay now? A...well, a stable relationship should not be changed easily, don't you think so?"

Echidna was very surprised. How did he know what I was going to say next? He wondered in his heart, in fact, this is also proof that Dolos and I are connected. However, when he said such words, how much understanding and grievance should he have in his heart!

"You... you are right." The snake demon sighed sadly, "A stable relationship should not be changed easily. I think I should follow your wishes... as long as you don't feel wronged .”

"No grievance, no grievance," Xie Ning breathed a sigh of relief. If Echidna really confessed to him, he would not be able to end it. "This is good."

One person and one snake with different brain circuits managed to achieve a mutually recognized communication result by accident. Xie Ning and Echidna, who had no idea about it, sat in front of the mirror and continued to watch the game with completely different melancholy.

After the wrestling match, it was time for running and discus throwing. As princes, several sons of King Xothoth will also participate in the competition to promote their prestige. Xie Ning's mood was already heavy, but when she saw the prince whom these people disliked, her expression became even worse.

Echidena, who had been paying attention to him secretly, was naturally keenly aware of something wrong with him.

"What's the matter, Dolos?" he asked immediately, "your face is gloomy, who made you unhappy?"

Xie Ning couldn't tell him directly. The princes in the mirror were the culprits who broke his head in the first place. If he really said that, Echidna would definitely have a fit and kill him.

"Hmm...it's nothing, I just don't like them," Xie Ning casually found a reason, "You can tell by their appearance that they are not good people."

Echidna laughed: "Your vision is extremely accurate! If their father was not Xothoth, they would have asked the people who came to seek revenge to kill them, and throw the bones from the sea to Their grandpa watched it!”

After laughing, he was determined to make his human happy to ease the previous sad atmosphere. So, Echidna grabbed a handful of gold coins and put them in Xie Ning's hands.

"Dolos, look." As he spoke, Echidena demonstrated first. He threw a gold coin in front of the mirror. The small gold actually penetrated the mirror without hindrance and directly hit it. He got behind the running black-haired prince and smashed him so hard that he fell headfirst to the ground and his forehead was bruised.

There was an uproar in the audience and the royal seats.

"Ha!" Xie Ning looked at the mirror in surprise. She didn't expect it to have this effect!

He quickly grabbed a gold coin and pointed it at another prince who was about to throw a discus. He thought of the grudges of that day and the triumphant faces of these men, and old and new hatreds came to his mind. Xie Ning threw it hard, and the gold coin flew out with a "swish", hitting the prince's arm just in time, and called the other man's arm. Suddenly, the discus fell from his hand and hit his feet directly.

"Full marks!" Xie Ning raised her hands and cheered loudly.

The author has something to say:

[I decided to go to bed early today! 】

The Great Prince: *Prepare the discus, imagining that it can hit the faces of those who have been bullied by him* Haha, I will definitely win!

Xie Ning: *throws gold coins* This is not necessarily the case.

Second Prince: *Race with strides, imagining that he is rushing towards those who are about to be bullied by him* Haha, I will definitely win!

Xie Ning: *continues to throw gold coins* I said, this is not necessarily the case.
