This is not her body.
It is worth mentioning that faced with the sudden loss of her body, Xilin did not cry or make a fuss. Apart from the normal shock at the beginning, she was very calm.
Surprisingly calm.
This is probably due to some kind of helpless trust.
After all, if even this gentle man who always smiles beside her wants to harm her, she really has no way out.
With this mentality of "it won't get any worse anyway", she asked calmly:
"I say, what on earth is going on?"
"Awake?" Lu Mian acted a little surprised, then smiled gently with his signature smile, "Welcome back to this world that belongs to us, welcome home."
But the current situation was kept a secret.
Honestly speaking, Lu Mian was aware of the confusion and helplessness hidden deep in Xilin's heart, as well as the desperate gamble that these two emotions gave rise to.
After all, this feeling was so similar to the first time he and young Otto got along.
As we all know, Otto, as the most intelligent person in modern civilization, is undoubtedly a genius of monstrous level.
If you get along with such a person, even the slightest little thought will be seen through.
Having ulterior motives is not okay, and trying to take advantage is not okay either.
The former refers to the elder sister Lisa Shaniat in the original plot. Even though she secretly became the real person in charge of destiny, she was eventually sent away by Otto to reunite with her family.
As for the latter, you can refer to the original Void Wanzang, who had to wait until Otto embarked on his "journey home" before he was freed and regained his freedom.
The reason why Lu Mian could gain the trust and favor of little Otto at that time was not because he was so gentle and considerate. After all, he was just a "child" who had just been separated from his family's care.
So, is it because of that bowl of magical medicine that "can make people stand up again"?
Actually not.
To be honest, the emotional foundation between Lu Mian and Otto at that time had already been unusually deep.
Moreover, the situation at that time was that Otto, because of Lu Mian's homesickness, spontaneously took Kallen to take the trouble to put the Great Wall that he had accidentally seen in a book into the snow globe.
And gave this "hometown in the snow" to Lu Mian as a gift.
Only then did Lu Mian, who was deeply moved, put aside all his concerns and burned his existence to turn into medicine.
What happened more was Lu Mian's emotional changes.
If we really want to know where the relationship between Lu Mian and Otto began.
Perhaps it is because Lu Mian can truly be sincere and caring towards the specific group of "people around him".
It was this unprecedented feeling and experience that deeply attracted the young Otto.
By the way, Xilin's situation is roughly the same as that of young Otto at that time.
Due to previous experiences, they have many emotional problems. When faced with an uncontrollable situation or possible betrayal, they will subconsciously feel confused and helpless, and may even be willing to take a gamble.
This is normal.
Lu Mian couldn't guarantee that Xilin's future life would always be smooth and happy, but he could guarantee that she would not be disappointed in him.
Just because - in most cases, love is the solution to many problems.
Back to the topic, seeing that Xilin was a little touched but also a little impatient, Lu Mian began to control the temperature reasonably.
But he smiled gently and explained the whole story without changing his expression:
"Didn't I tell you a long time ago that we are all from the original world, and the reason we live in that parallel world is just because of my ability.
“And my ability can’t allow me to die immediately after living a lifetime in that world, so after the duration of the ability ends, I will return to this original world, and all my states will return to the state before the ability was activated.
"You have also been drawn into my power, so you must follow this rule. This is the state we are in before we activate our power. The owner of this body you are in is named Kiana, a very good and lovely girl. You can try to check her memory."
Although there are still many details missing from this explanation, it is enough to resolve the confusion for the time being.
Having heard almost everything, Xilin nodded slightly, and subconsciously curled her lips at the words "a very good and lovely girl".
Then, she, who still didn't know Kiana's "real identity", began to look through the memories in her mind bit by bit - wanting to see what was good and cute about this girl.
It doesn't matter if you don't see it, you will be shocked when you see it.
Some of the scenes are pretty explosive.
Xilin, who is still a virgin and has never even been kissed, blushed and moved the corners of her lips slightly, inadvertently letting out a shrill but not noisy scream.
It took him a long time to recover, pretending to be bored, "This is really an explosive memory. I really didn't expect you to like this girl so much, and I didn't expect you to be so disrespectful to your age..."
She saw the memories of Kiana and Lu Mian in Changkong City, and was able to understand and respect the feelings between these friends who were willing to share life and death.
At the same time, maybe it was because the silly girl was heartless and forgetful, or maybe it was for some other reason, in short, she did not see the complete life of Kiana.
Naturally, he didn't know the other person's true identity and just thought she was a likable girl.
For a moment, there was a mysterious trend of "being jealous of oneself" that was so unbearable just to hear about it.
In response to this, Lu Mian, who had already been "hit" emotionally by "various forces", was not panicked at all, and even his expression did not change.
He extended his index finger and lightly tapped the nose of the person next to him, and asked gently and softly:
"If I had acted like a big boss from the beginning, would you still like me as much as you do now?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who likes you?" Xilin responded quickly, but was completely betrayed by her erratic eyes.
Faced with his girl's duplicity, Lu Mian smiled even more, but did not make any jokes.
Instead, he expressed his genuine concern:
"It's inconvenient to live in someone else's body like this. I will leave today or tomorrow to help you make arrangements for your body. What do you think?"
"That's not necessary." Unexpectedly, Xilin chose to refuse without even thinking about it.
Seeing Lu Mian looking at her with concern and surprise in his eyes, her heart was filled with warmth.
But he raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and made a mischievous smile with Kiana's pretty face:
"I'm not in a hurry to return to my previous body. I just want to see what it is about this silly girl Fu Fu that attracts you so much and makes you like her so much.
"Go get the scriptures. It won't be too late to return to my previous body once I understand it, right?"
Hearing this, the surprise and confusion on Lu Mian's face turned into a smile. It was not his signature gentle and soft smile, but a helpless smile that was a little difficult to hold.
He smiled and shook his head, his eyes flickering, and expressed his opinion sincerely:
"Okay, I have no objection."
"Hehe, it's useless for you to have any opinions. This queen has the 'veto power'." As she spoke, Xilin blinked her golden-orange eyes, which were completely different from Kiana's.
-----------------
After talking through almost all the doubts about the "body", Lu Mian and Xilin lay side by side on the bed.
I don’t know if it’s due to the indescribable “innocence” that fills my body.
Xilin's thinking and behavior actually show signs of being "Nana-like", as shown below:
First he lay flat on his back, looking up at the ceiling in a daze, and then he suddenly asked out of nowhere:
"Mian, do you think I have lost my first kiss passively?"
After saying that, without waiting for Lu Mian’s answer, he wrapped himself in the quilt, jumped up like a large cat-bug, and began to search in a hurry.
It feels like something important is missing.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Lu Mian, who was lying on the side, was completely confused and didn't know what was going on.
As the concerned voice fell, Xilin, who had just been frantically searching, breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Luckily the magical girl gem you gave me is still there. I was scared to death just now."
After sighing like this, he patted his chest seriously.
Uh, big breasts, big breasts.
This is not the end. After this matter was over, she had just laid down for a while when she jumped up again and said anxiously:
"Wait, where are my mom and Bella and the others? We are here, where are they now?!"
It was so sudden and so urgent. I don't know if he was so distracted by his health problems that he forgot to ask or if he completely forgot.
However, this also reminded Lu Mian.
Right now, he still has a "good treasure" in his hand that he hasn't let the other party take a good look at.
Appropriate surprises and romance are definitely the best seasoning for emotions in life, but it’s not good when the riddler doesn’t speak human language.
Lu Mian, who knew this well, answered the questions raised by Xilin:
"Meia and Bella are still on their way. The process is just like taking a taxi. It just takes some time. There is no need to worry about anything."
Hearing that, Xilin finally let go of her nervousness and collapsed on the bed like a salted fish again.
She pursed her pink lips and opened her mouth to say something.
And at this moment, Lu Mian moved.
The man moved away a little with a mysterious look on his face, and then pushed the obviously unwilling girl on the bed to move along, making some space again.
Now, the distance between the two people is just enough to accommodate a young girl with a slim figure.
Seeing this, Xilin blinked, with a confused look on her face.
Lu Mian raised his index finger and made a "hush" gesture in front of his lips. "I have prepared a gift for you, a special gift, a gift that you will definitely like."
Seeing his confident look, Xilin silently changed her position to lying on her side with her head supported, pretending to let him do whatever he wanted.
At this point, Lu Mian no longer had any malicious intentions to be mysterious and just summoned the magic book in his arms.
Then he summoned out the spirit named "Benares" that was currently residing in the magic book.
In an instant, a blue-haired girl who couldn't be said to be exactly the same as Bella, but who was inexplicably silly, appeared out of nowhere in mid-air and happened to fall into the space that had just been vacated.
It is naked, and its body is so white and smooth that one would inexplicably want to take a bite of it.
"Eh——?" Benares, who was obviously immersed in a confused state of resurrection from the dead, stretched out his snow-white neck in a daze when he saw everything that suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This is, Bella?" Looking at the sudden appearance of such a big Benares, Xilin was a little confused at first.
But soon she seemed to suddenly think of a possibility, her heart was suddenly moved and her eyes became eager.
At one point, I couldn't help but ask, "You are Benares, and you are my 'Bella', right?"
Hearing this soft call that was so familiar to the depths of his soul, Benares was stunned at first, and then immediately came out of his dazed state.
She looked in the direction of the voice and saw Xilin, who was looking very excited, so she tentatively asked back:
"Your Majesty the Queen? Are you Your Majesty the Queen?"
One second, two seconds.
Faced with this silly question that she hadn't heard for a long time, Xilin was silent for a full two seconds.
Recalling the past, she suddenly felt a slight sourness in the tip of her nose, and her pair of golden-orange almond-shaped eyes became a little moist, as if they would be filled with tears in the next second.
"Yes, it's me." She didn't cry. Instead, she smiled softly and nodded slightly, responding.
The subsequent developments became logical and not easy to guess.
It is nothing more than:
Xilin and Benares, who had been separated for a long time in every sense, hugged each other tightly.
A master and a servant, a pair of good friends, just like this, they felt the sincere emotion between each other which was even stronger than the affection of family members.
No one spoke, no one spoke.
Oh, that’s not entirely true…
After all, there was another person present who was not as moved as Lu Mian, but took the opportunity to explain:
"In a sense, this girl named Benares is the reward I received after activating my ability this time. She is now the spirit of the Grimoire."
