Chapter 116 Actually... I killed your parents.
Chapter 116 Actually... I killed your parents.
Su Tu was stunned by Hailier's brain circuits.
After a brief period of disappointment upon learning that someone else was more talented than her, she was overjoyed to have a toy.
Aren't you afraid that the other party will grow stronger and destroy you?
However, recalling Haliel's previous actions, I suddenly felt that this idea was very reasonable and consistent with her personality.
"Pee... what was it again? Anyway, it's you. Hurry up and learn magic, grow stronger, and have a good fight with me!"
Hailier walked up to Su Tu, raised her slender right hand, pointed directly at Su Tu, and her face was full of excitement.
Her voice was filled with anticipation, as if she couldn't wait for the person in front of her to learn super-level magic so that they could have a magical contest.
Su Tu's magical perception naturally captured this scene in his mind.
But he ignored Hailier's thoughts and silently chose to give her the silent treatment.
Such a cheerful girl would probably go crazy if she experienced a few more instances of passive-aggressive behavior...
While thinking about it, Su Tu slowly recounted what Gwyneth had promised him.
"Teacher, you said before that once I learned magic, I would tell you the truth about my parents' death."
His voice was calm, so calm that it seemed he didn't care about the matter and was just asking out of curiosity.
However, the answer to this question is crucial to whether Su Tu can complete the main quest, obtain the quest rewards, and allow his strength to undergo its first qualitative change.
Perhaps after completing the three main quests, this avatar's strength will grow to the point where it can hold its own against Haliel.
At the very least, he shouldn't be instantly killed by her the moment the battle begins.
Just as he expected, the room fell silent once again after he finished speaking.
Unlike the silence he had just created when he used a basic spell, this silence had a noticeably strange atmosphere.
This gave him a vague idea.
The deaths of the parents in this character's setting may be related to these two people.
Fortunately, the silence didn't last long, and Gwyneth answered Su Tu's questions as promised.
"I killed your parents..."
Gwyneth spoke calmly, seemingly not caring much about the matter.
But in reality, while she was saying those words, her beautiful eyes were constantly watching the changes in Su Tu's facial expressions.
I want to see how he will react after learning the truth.
However, to her surprise, Su Tu's expression did not change much and remained as usual.
Aside from a slight furrowing of his brow after hearing those words, he wasn't much different from before, as if this matter wasn't very important to him.
But Gwyneth felt this was impossible. People have emotions, and knowing that the real killer of their parents was right in front of them, their hearts would inevitably be consumed by rage.
It's simply a matter of whether or not one can maintain rationality.
Judging from Su Tu's current situation, it is clear that reason has taken over, and he has suppressed all his emotions.
Silence fell over Gwyneth, and for the first time, she felt she couldn't understand Su Tu.
However, after a while, she parted her lips slightly and slowly said, "You can take revenge on me at any time, but you should also consider the consequences carefully."
At this point, she seemed to remember something and, worried that Su Tu might misunderstand, added, "Of course, I wouldn't go so far as to tamper with teaching you magic. You can study magic without worry."
Silence fell once again in the room after Gwyneth finished speaking.
Hairiel, who had been full of excitement and ready to fight Su Tu when he grew up, remained silent in the face of the situation.
But her incredibly cute face was now filled with curiosity.
Her beautiful eyes, like flowing water, kept scanning the two of them, as if she were watching an exciting drama.
This is like someone who knows the truth and is watching the plot unfold.
Su Tu was blind and unable to see the expressions on the two people's faces, and his magical perception could not provide any useful information.
After all, magic perception can only detect magic fluctuations, not human emotional fluctuations.
The only thing that could sense that the atmosphere around him was a little strange was probably his intuition.
However, he didn't care about the atmosphere around him and focused all his attention on the light blue game panel.
"Strange, didn't Gwyneth already name the killer? Why hasn't there been any reaction?"
After Gwyneth revealed that she was the real culprit who killed the avatar of the parents, Su Tu waited for the main quest completion notification.
But now, about three minutes have passed, and there is still no response.
This made him feel doubtful and skeptical of what Gwyneth had said.
Either he's lying, or there's something else going on!
He thought to himself that it was necessary to ask more questions in detail.
He didn't listen to a word Gwyneth said about taking revenge on him.
Contrary to Gwyneth's expectations, Su Tu only wanted to know the truth and complete the main quest to obtain rewards.
He couldn't be bothered to think about revenge or do anything about it.
After all, he was still quite clear-headed. The so-called avatars were just a game setting, a fabrication.
When creating this avatar, a background is created for it, a main storyline is set, and the background leaves a trace in the minds of others, making everything seem natural.
All loopholes and illogical points will be automatically filled in by the game when the avatar is created.
If the story is fabricated, why would he seek revenge?
It's like playing a role-playing game. As a player, you naturally know that the entire background is fictional, and you just want to quietly complete the main storyline and get the rewards.
He really didn't have the inclination to do things unrelated to the main plot.
Since the main storyline of the game doesn't require him to avenge his parents, Su Tu will absolutely not seek revenge.
However, judging from the current situation, the background constructed by this avatar is still quite grand, and completing the main storyline may not be so simple.
After all, the main quest involves finding out the truth behind Gwyneth saving this avatar.
This clearly contradicts the truth that Gwyneth is now telling.
Now, he had to find a way to probe and see what Gwyneth was hiding about this matter.
She had just mentioned something about revenge, so he could use that as leverage.
Thinking of this, his previously calm face revealed a faint sadness as he faced Gwyneth.
"Teacher, I just want to know one thing: why...why did you kill them?"
After saying that, he used his magical perception to glance at Haliel.
See that, little one? This is real acting! Compared to your pathetic, fake acting, it's like heaven and earth!
Of course, these were extra thoughts; the main focus was still on Gwyneth, wanting to see if there was any hidden story behind this matter.
According to Su Tu's magical perception, Gwyneth lowered her head slightly after he said those words.
It's a pity that he couldn't see the expression on her face.
But he was certain of one thing: Gwyneth was indeed hiding something.
The main storyline of her transformation will most likely be revealed in her later words!
