Chapter 79 Old Friend
"Ugh!"
Alice emerged from the mud. She couldn't remember how far the mudslide had swept her, but she knew that all her weapons had been swept away somewhere, and the anti-loss rope was no match for the kinetic energy of the mudslide.
“Ahh…”
A strange noise came from behind Alice. She turned around, and the hero stood up as well. Alice looked at him warily, but then she suddenly remembered that this was a magical world.
"Weapons are forged with blood, and glory is created with weapons!"
Alice used the chuunibyou chanting to calm her mind. In her hand, blood condensed, and a pistol materialized, which she held in her hand.
"That's... unfair!"
The hero's holy sword had been swept away to who knows where, so he could only wave his hand. The heavy rain washed the mud off the two of them, and Alice remained silent for a while.
"Shoot me, vampire. I'm just a piece of trash anyway..."
Alice watched as the hero lowered his head in despair, his bangs covering his eyes. She could hear the sob in his voice, but she still gripped the STI TTI 2011 tightly in her hand. The dragon scale grip was a bit sharp, and the pistol grip was a little too big for her, but she had to hold on tight because she didn't know what kind of spell the other party would use.
"what's your name?"
Alice gripped the pistol, its tritium fiber optic sight emitting a green glow, and the hero stood less than a step away from her.
What's the point?
"Imperial Jade Liquor, please."
Alice probed tentatively, after all, this was a well-known couplet, and if she could answer it, then the hero had not yet reached the end.
"One...one hundred and eighty cups."
Yes, that's right, people from my hometown.
"If it benefits the nation, I will risk my life..."
"...How can one avoid or pursue something based on fortune or misfortune!"
"what's your name?"
Alice lowered her gun, and the hero regained his spirits. Looking at Alice, he remembered how, according to the church's propaganda, vampires were murderers who killed and drank blood; they were brutal and were dark monsters.
But over the past few days, it has become clear that everything the church has been propagating is completely false. Under the knife, what difference is there between the so-called "beasts that only know how to kill" demons that the church has been propagating and humans? Is it just because they have horns?
"Who are you......."
"Three years ago, I was also a hero. Five years ago, I was summoned to this world."
They were all time travelers.
"My name is Bai Ling!"
Bai Ling! Alice suddenly remembered the past. Before she was summoned to this world, she had known a little guy named Bai Ling, and...
"Wait, Bai Ling? Did you attend Northwestern Polytechnical University?"
"Eh? How do you know?"
"Damn, are you Ah Bai?"
Bai Ling was stunned for a moment. Ah Bai, he remembered. Only one person would call him that. He looked at the little girl in front of him. Her small, scarlet eyes were looking at him. Only one person would use that tone.
"President?"
The little girl nodded. Bai Ling thought of that person, who could be called the school heartthrob in the entire school, a guy who knew everything, and also the only person in the school who took care of and understood him.
"It seems we're quite destined to meet..."
Alice sighed. Was the hero still a girl? She lamented: "It's such a cruel twist of fate that he, who longed to be a girl, and she, who accidentally became a girl."
"President, how...how did you... become like this?"
Upon seeing an old friend, the two sat down together. Bai Ling suddenly realized, how did the person in front of him become like this? This was clearly the person he most wanted to be!
"It's a long story..."
Alice spoke up and told him the whole story.
"Hey, president!"
The male hero suddenly flipped over and pinned Alice beneath him. Alice could smell his fragrance, a blend of earthy scents.
"Whoa! Ah Bai!!!! What are you doing?"
Bai Ling groped Alice's face, looking at her flushed cheeks to confirm that she was the real deal, and a look of jealousy flashed across his face.
"She really has turned into a girl, my dear club president~ The dashing and charming number one heartthrob who caused such a stir at school has now become like this, hmm~ how interesting, can I also...?"
Bai Ling drew circles on Alice's chest with his finger, a slight upturn of his lips, his tone slightly ingratiating. Alice knew that when he made such an expression, it meant he had an almost fanatical desire for something.
"Right now... we can't do that yet."
Alice looked away.
"What an adorable verbal tic! Has she already become a girl, both mentally and physically?"
"No way!"
"uh-huh?"
Bai Ling pierced through Alice's defenses, but the latter continued to be stubborn. However, in Bai Ling's eyes, the only thing that was stubborn about Alice was her mouth.
"Alright, alright, President~"
"I can't do that yet. Alicia said that vampires still need time to grow..."
"Could it be me?"
Bai Ling asked softly, and Alice could clearly sense the pleading in her voice. She thought for a moment and said, "I don't know..."
"That's true~ The club president is so outstanding, you must have built this whole world out of this~"
Before her, this was clearly a magical medieval fantasy world. Bai Ling knew that the so-called demon cannons and muskets, as well as that powerful fleet, were clearly the handiwork of the guy in front of her. Back in school, she had made steel pipes to fire weapons as homework before.
"Yeah, that's right. Someone like me isn't good enough for that..."
Alice didn't know what to say. She couldn't judge a guy like Bai Ling; she hadn't experienced his life. She could only use her kindness to be tolerant of everyone.
"President... there's something I've wanted to say since you were still here—I like you."
"But I know that someone like me is not good enough for you, and even I find it laughable."
Bai Ling reflected on her past, realizing how utterly awful her life had been. If she hadn't transmigrated, she might have died the very next day.
"I know."
Alice tiptoed and patted Bai Ling's head: "Each of us has our own path, which may be full of thorns or only despair, but to use the limited time to pursue everything we dream of is undoubtedly a courageous act."
"We know Bai Ling's feelings, but we also knew we would be summoned, so we're sorry we didn't have time to respond."
Whether she accepts or refuses, there will be a result. Now that she is Alice, the situation has changed, and things will develop differently.
Bai Ling looked at the white-haired boy who was tiptoeing and touching his head, and as if possessed, he lowered his head.
"Ugh!"
It didn't take long; just before she could resist, Bai Ling had already found her answer.
"I still like the president, but I am not worthy of him, not even worthy of this gift."
"Ugh! Ah Bai! You bastard!"
Alice threw a punch at Bai Ling, not with much force, which looked no different from a little girl throwing a tantrum. After the sudden shyness dissipated, Alice looked at him.
"Do you want to come back with me?"
Bai Ling looked at Alice: "After the hero disappears, will the church summon another hero?"
Alice nodded. Yes, the church will indeed summon the next hero.
"So, if we summon a troublesome guy, it will have a big impact on us. If the church stops summoning heroes, then nothing will change, right?"
Alice nodded. Indeed, the only reason the church hadn't been defeated by the demons for centuries was because of its heroes. Summoning heroes was like drawing cards; you'd eventually get the perfect hero.
So as long as they occupy this position, the church can't ship anything, right?
"You mean..."
"Until then, I'll share the burden for the president. Consider it the price for all of this."
Alice looked at Bai Ling and let out a long sigh: "Hmm..."
"Oh, right, President, Alice..."
Bai Ling picked up the holy sword from the soil and inserted it into the scabbard at his waist.
"Don't forget me, even if I die, please remember me."
Alice remembered something: "On the third street of the Holy City, go to the third room to the left from the Meya Clothing Store, go in, turn left and go down to the basement. There is an oil drum. Turn the tap clockwise ten times, go in and enter the password. If you encounter danger before I arrive in the Holy City, go there and wait for me."
Bai Ling nodded.
"So......."
"Dear Little White, see you again after the revolution's victory~"
