Translated by: La0o9
Proofreader: Arya
Gu Qing Shan accepted Xiao Die’s request, but felt a bit uneasy.
As he looked at Xiao Die, he noticed sothing was off.
Xiao Die was only happy because she finally got to et Barry again.
They had both forgotten sothing.
Barry.
He was not such an easy person to fool.
Even if it was only a short exchange through glances, Barry’s sharp instinct still noticed.
He was a Combatant who had been through countless worlds, not even a grain of sand could escape his eyes.
“Hmm? Is sothing wrong?”
Barry asked.
He followed Xiao Die’s gaze and looked at Gu Qing Shan before looking back at Xiao Die.
What are these two hiding?
Barry felt uneasy.
Xiao Die seed clearly distressed.
She was never soone who could hide her emotions well.
So her distressed expression was easily caught by Barry.
This ti, even Kitty noticed her anxiety.
“There’s actually sothing she’s worried about, sothing very important”
Gu Qing Shan spoke up.
No!
Don’t tell them!
Xiao Die kept her mouth shut, but was silently screaming inside at Gu Qing Shan, telling him not to say it.
Barry and Kitty both looked at Gu Qing Shan.
Gu Qing Shan didn’t avert his gaze from Barry’s at all.
Right in front of them, Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag to take out a bottle of liquor.
—–he rembered those golden statues well.
While in his underwear and in a hurry to save a world, Barry still had a bottle of liquor in his hand.
That’s why this excuse won’t be noticed.
Glancing over Xiao Die’s panicking expression, Gu Qing Shan showed Barry the bottle.
“Since this is an occasion to celebrate, Xiao Die also wanted to bring you a bit of alcohol”
Gu Qing Shan explained: “Xiao Die was worried because she doesn’t know what kind of liquor she should buy——- and whether or not this will suit your taste”
He pointed at Xiao Die and smiled to Barry: “Just look, she’s still a bit anxious, afraid that this might not be the kind you like to drink”
Barry was stunned for a few seconds.
As he looked at the bottle, his throat visibly gulped.
“Xiao Die is such a considerate girl to still rember that bro likes drinking”
For the first ti, Kitty smiled: “It’s indeed a rare occasion, having so booze would definitely be better”
“Ahahaha, Xiao Die, don’t worry about the brand” Barry suddenly laughed out loud: “As long as it’s booze, this Barry will definitely like it!”
As Xiao Die looked at Barry, she also smiled joyfully.
Gu Qing Shan took out a few glasses, pouring one each for Barry and Kitty.
“Give one as well” Xiao Die said.
“That’s right, give her a shot too, she’s just turned 18 now” Barry comnted.
“It’s been over 1000 years, uncle Barry, you kept refusing to give liquor back then” Xiao Die angrily protested.
Barry was laughing as he knocked glasses with her.
Kitty also raised her own glass, gesturing to Gu Qing Shan: “To be able to bring such a precious thing here, you must’ve been through quite a bit”
“It’s nothing much” Gu Qing Shan also raised his own glass.
“Big sis Kitty, thank you for your care back then” Xiao Die turned to Kitty, asking for a toast.
“I still rember spanking you back then” Kitty smiled.
“That’s because I was naughty and ripped your manuscript” Xiao Die giggled.
…
As they drank, they talked about the old days.
Everyone was in high spirits.
Together with their conversation, the liquor was also being consud at a fast pace.
After an untold amount of ti, a beautiful glow of light started to shine.
Gu Qing Shan looked over.
Xiao Die’s figure was becoming transparent.
Her spell was about to end.
Xiao Die looked down at her body and regretfully put the shot glass down.
She nodded to Gu Qing Shan.
“Thank you, this is sothing to show my gratitude for helping ” she said.
Following her words, a scroll lightly fluttered in front of Gu Qing Shan.
“Ah? There’s no need to be so formal” Gu Qing Shan hurriedly said.
Before, Xiao Die had already helped him once, in exchange, he would bring the Pixie Crystal Flower to Barry in place of Xiao Die.
That was the agreed deal.
Suddenly, a female voice answered in Gu Qing Shan’s mind.
『 No, I really must thank you, for making the last ti that I see him end in him being happy. For , this was the perfect outco 』
“You really care deeply about him huh?”
『 He is a fighter, a man who never stays down even if he gets beaten down. I can’t let him know I’ve beco a demon, it would’ve been too much of a shock to him, possibly drowning him in sorrow 』
Gu Qing Shan listened to her words with a serious expression.
Xiao Die raised her glass, looking at Gu Qing Shan.
“One final ti, let us also make a toast” she smiled .
“Very well”
Gu Qing Shan emptied his glass and couldn’t help but be a bit ddleso.
He sent his voice: “Hey, I have sothing I want to say to you”
Xiao Die lightly sipped her liquor listening to him.
Gu Qing Shan continued: “So people emphasize background, race, they emphasize the origins of others, even looking deep into what kind of education they’ve been through. Perhaps these factors are all very important, but Xiao Die, do you know what I think? I think that a person who still holds gratitude towards another at the mont of a world’s destruction couldn’t possibly be a real demon”
“I hope that one day, you will be able to face him and tell him yourself, regardless of what you’ve beco, your heart was and is still the sa, and you are always that little girl that he once saved”
Xiao Die went silent for a bit, finishing her drink in one breath.
“Thank you”
She curtly said, waving her hand to put the scroll away.
Instead, she walked in front of Gu Qing Shan and lightly put her hand on his chest.
A dim dark light turned into a unique insignia that lted into Gu Qing Shan’s body.
“A small gift”
She said as she returned.
A few lines of text appeared on the War God UI.
[You’ve received a mysterious link]
[This link will not bring you a direct increase in power, it will only provide you help once, at a certain crucial point in ti]
Gu Qing Shan silently felt it.
Nothing seed off, but he could faintly feel a bond in his mind.
This was sothing he still couldn’t fully grasp.
Xiao Die looked at Barry and solemnly bowed.
“Uncle Barry, I can’t stay any longer, I need to leave now” she lightly said.
“Hm, bring your child next ti, my place will always welco you”
Barry gently stroke her head.
Xiao Die smiled brightly at Barry.
The light that ford her body collapsed, turning into tiny sprites of light that scattered to the wind.
The farewell was over.
Xiao Die had disappeared.
Whether it was the past, present, or future, that cute little girl could no longer return.
And the truth of this was known to Gu Qing Shan alone.
He will keep it an eternal secret.
Until a certain day.
Barry just stood there, still smiling and reminiscing about the past.
He didn’t know what Xiao Die had gone through.
At this ti, he only felt a sense of joy from seeing an old acquaintance.
“You know, at the ti, she was only 10 years old. Both her parents were dead, and she was the only person who was saved from that dying world”
He told Gu Qing Shan.
“She cried for several days, a real headache, I tell you. It took a lot of effort to finally get her to stop”
Barry excitedly continued as he patted Gu Qing Shan on the back.
Kitty also smiled: “Just look at her now, in just the blink of an eye, that little girl had already beco an excellent scroll user, and she even had her own child!”
“I’m also quite shocked!” Barry agreed.
Gu Qing Shan said nothing.
From the very beginning, Gu Qing Shan didn’t interrupt Xiao Die and Barry’s reunion.
And right now, the War God UI showed that he only had 7 minutes left.
The last 7 minutes.
If Gu Qing Shan was unable to stay here, his Quest would fail.
But after finishing his drink, Gu Qing Shan only poured himself another glass.
He raised the glass and told the two of them: “Co, it’s a joyful occasion, this one is on ”
