Chapter 260 Lovers 19
"Brother, who is this person and why do you want to place him in our house?"
The first floor of a newly opened store was empty, but on the second floor, a white-haired boy looked at the boy with glasses lying on the bed and asked in confusion.
"Because he needs to live. To be more precise, his body needs to live, and we also need to live a stable life."
"And he is the guarantee of our stable life."
The white-haired boy was still puzzled.
"I don't understand how we could have anything to do with him, to the point where we had to use force to bring him back here from another place."
"Shouldn't each of us be an independent individual?"
The blond young man smiled and said, "Do you really think we are the same people as those in this world? We are just heretics in this world, beings that should not exist in this world."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the boy lying on the bed. "His spirit has been trapped in the virtual world by his 'lover'. Although as the protagonist of that world, he may be able to turn danger into safety, we can't gamble. Once his body dies, it will cause serious consequences."
"So, his body is in our hands and is safe for us to maintain."
"And we are characters that originally exist in the virtual world. It is only because of the opportunity of 'lover' that we have the opportunity to come to this world."
"So, he is our mission here and the purpose of our trip."
The white-haired boy nodded. He stared at the person lying on the bed for a long time and suddenly asked, "Brother, do you think his name is An Xu?"
The young man beside him was stunned for a moment, but did not deny it, "Yes, he is An Xu."
"Then why, when the girl asked about his whereabouts, we—"
"Because he is safe enough in our hands. The fewer people know about his existence, the better."
The young man said seriously.
The white-haired boy seemed to understand something. "So... why do we have to guard passively like this? Why do we come to this world? If we take the initiative to solve the 'lover', all problems will be solved."
"You're still so direct."
The young man glanced at the boy beside him, with a helpless smile on his lips, "It would be great if everything is as simple as you think."
"But you don't need to worry too much. Just know that no matter what problems arise, I will do my best to protect you."
He reached out and put his hand on the boy's shoulder.
The hands were warm and powerful, and seemed to carry a heavy weight. The white-haired boy was stunned for a moment, "Brother...you..."
"Because I am your elder brother, dear brother, and because we are one, please accept this with peace of mind."
The young man smiled. His smile was very warm, like the rising sun, with just the right amount of warmth and truthfulness.
The white-haired boy looked at such a smile, and his dark eyes trembled, but soon returned to the purest calmness.
"I will also protect my brother."
He straightened his expression, stared into those gentle eyes, and spoke seriously.
As soon as he finished speaking, he clearly felt that his brother's hand on his shoulder exerted force for a moment. The force seemed to be very strong, but it was well controlled within the range of no harm.
"........."
The short-haired young man fell silent. After a long while, he whispered, "Sorry."
"Hey?"
Temperance was a little confused, "Brother, what are you talking about?"
"Nothing. I just feel like everything is too good to be true. I feel like I'm still living in a virtual world."
The young man smiled slightly, perhaps only he knew whether there was something else hidden under his smile.
The boy with short white hair opened his mouth and was about to say something when he heard footsteps downstairs, followed by a somewhat flustered female voice.
"Excuse me, is anyone here?"
"Here... there seems to be a reassuring atmosphere here—"
The girl blinked her eyes and subconsciously covered her heart, which was no longer beating so violently, with her hand. She felt that her mood seemed to be calming down quickly.
"Please take a seat."
A gentle voice sounded in the girl's ears. She looked towards the source of the voice and saw a young man with a calm and gentle temperament and short sunshine-colored hair.
The delicate-looking white-haired boy standing next to him was looking at her with curiosity.
Being stared at by these two people, the girl couldn't help but blush slightly, and then sat down on the soft sofa somewhat stiffly.
"Excuse me, are you having any trouble in the game?"
"As long as it's the bizarre emotional issues encountered in "Final Fate", maybe we can give an answer."
The young man soon sat down opposite and asked.
"I……"
The girl took a deep breath and said, "I'm not sure if this has anything to do with this game, because I'm also a loyal player of this game. But now, I'm being stalked by a pervert because of this game."
"Several times I saw him holding a knife, standing not far from me, wearing ragged clothes, with a crazy smile on his face."
"It's like an evil ghost coming to take my life... He must be coming to kill me!"
"Even, I even saw him near you at home. I think... he is looking for a good opportunity to kill me with his own hands!"
As the girl was talking, she suddenly became excited, with a look of fear bordering on despair on her face.
"But what does what you said have to do with this game? You didn't just come to tell us that you were stalked by a pervert, did you?"
The white-haired boy's clear voice carried a hint of chilliness that he hadn't noticed. He looked at the girl's dark circles and bloodshot eyes, "This may be beyond our capabilities."
"No! I think it has something to do with that game!"
The girl hastily retorted, her eyes cast towards the gentler-looking young man, "It really has something to do with that game!"
"Final Fate has changed a lot recently. There's a weird new event called... The Balance of Desire - Promise of Love."
"It is an activity that is said to be good for lovers. The activity takes place on the Wheel of Fortune. It is said that the depth of love can be numerically quantified. As long as one or both parties pay enough love points, the promise they once made can be fulfilled."
"And the pervert I just mentioned is... is——"
The girl took a deep breath, and seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage: "It's my ex-boyfriend."
"As far as I know, he is also a loyal fan of this game. No matter what activities are held, he is always the first to participate."
"And we also once had a pact...about death."
