205 Separate Ways
"Gas, Gas?"
A gentle female voice sounded in Gastens's ears. The voice was very nice but a little strange. Gastens's consciousness woke up from the chaos. Listening to this somewhat familiar and somewhat strange voice, he suddenly thought of Daisy again. He suppressed the pain in his heart, opened his eyes, but saw someone who surprised him a little.
"Luna?"
"Yeah, it's me."
Luna, sitting next to Gastens's bed, was wearing a gray military uniform that was the same as Daisy. The collar and chest were trimmed again, highlighting her figure very well. The girl saw Gastens wake up and showed a gentle smile.
"Why are you here?"
Gastens sat up and was a little uncomfortable. In this world, Luna was once the top group, and he was the so-called "scratch" living at the bottom of society, and he was not even qualified to be a person. There was no common point between the two, and the only girl who could connect them had passed away yesterday. Gastens turned his eyes away from Luna and looked out the window. The sun in the evening had turned dim and shone on the ground through the window frame, warm. I don't know who opened a crack in the office window, and the wind blew in through the crack. Although there was still a little summery, it was unexpected and not annoying.
"I heard, Daisy is gone," Luna got up, turned around and walked to the table, with her back facing Gastens. The silver spoon in her hand hit the bone porcelain cup, making a tinging sound. She was making tea for Gastens, using the knowledge she learned from the top of the society. "Sink said you need someone to accompany you, and I want to ask you about that magic, so I came here."
"Is it magic..."
Gastens was a little surprised. Yes, this girl was the first apprentice from the Sanctions Mage Tower. When she saw herself releasing the thundercloud storm and said she was not curious, it would be abnormal. On the contrary, being able to tell her purpose so directly made Gastens's impression of her a little better.
"Yeah, magic."
Luna turned around, holding the tray with her hands flat, with two exquisite bone porcelain cups on it. She sat lightly beside Gastens, carefully controlling herself not to touch Gastens's body, and placed the tray between the two. Then, she used her left hand to hold the small tray under the bone porcelain cup on the large tray, held the cup to her mouth, opened her mouth slightly, and blew it gently. The dim sunlight in the evening hit her face, reflecting the thin fluff into gold, looking particularly cute. Gastens looked at the girl with a hint of appreciation, and picked up the cup of her own.
“I never like those expensive teas…”
Although he admired this picture of the sunset maid, Gastens still emphasized his attitude. His habit of drinking black leaf tea was developed since his first life. Even though he had seen countless delicious drinks on earth, even after becoming a magician, he had come into contact with countless top teas in this world. But when he returned to his starting point, even though he had experienced many, he finally found that what he loved to drink the most was still the simplest and cheapest black leaf tea.
Luna didn't say anything. She just savored her tea carefully and used the world's top etiquette to taste the tea in the cup. Gastens was infected by her concentration and looked at her tea cup.
"Black leaf tea?"
He looked up at Luna in surprise, wondering why she used such high-end tea sets and etiquette to brew the cheapest tea leaves. Luna had just tasted her own tea and was frowning slightly. Obviously, the tea tasted less than she imagined. Seeing Gastens looking at her, Luna's mouth was slightly raised.
"Daisy told me that you like this kind of tea the most."
Hearing Luna mention Daisy, Gastens was silent again. Although the girl sitting opposite him was beautiful, she was not the like-minded revolutionary partner who was like him. He sighed softly, lowered his eyes, and began to taste the cup of tea in silence. The cheapest tea brewed with the most etiquette.
"Gastens", Luna put down her cup and did not hide her resistance to this kind of tea. "Are you a great wizard?"
Unconsciously, Luna was so direct, Gastens almost choked. He began to feel a little dissatisfied with Sink's arrangement. He was not a man who had never seen the world, nor was he a man who had never experienced women. When Daisy just passed away, he arranged Luna over. He could probably guess what Sink was thinking. But is this what a revolutionary comrade should do?
Gastens did not reply at the first time, and Luna was not in a hurry. She looked at Gastens and looked at it quietly, with a slight smile on the corner of her mouth. The sunlight made shadows of varying shades on her face and dyed her long hair red. Although she did not wear makeup, her carefully carved face radiated an amazing beauty in the sun with her already beautiful face.
Sighing in his heart, Gastens put down his teacup and looked directly at the girl sitting in front of him.
"I am not a great magician, so don't think too much about what you have. The third great magic tide has arrived. The silence of magic is a historical trend and is inevitable. Although I was lucky enough to release magic once, I can only release magic once. Thank you very much for your robe yesterday, which saved Elena."
"I'm very happy to be able to help," Luna stood up and walked to the window to look at the square under the window. "But I really didn't expect you to activate that robe, and what you released was the forbidden spell magic of the Scepter Mage Tower. If I hadn't known about your past, I would have suspected that you were someone from the Scepter Mage Tower."
"Is that the magic of the Scepter Mage Tower?" Gastens asked knowingly that the affairs of his previous life were highly confidential and must not be known to people in this world. Therefore, he could only pretend to be ignorant of the magic, "I just knew that I could release the forbidden spell magic once, but I didn't know that it was from the Scepter Mage Tower..."
"It doesn't matter," Luna stood by the window, looked at Gastens and smiled, "Just you said, the third great demon tide has arrived, and the trend of magic silence cannot be changed. Whether it is me or that robe, they are old objects abandoned by history. I am already very happy that you can make that robe run again and let me see the glow of magic again in my lifetime. So, it's not that you should thank me, but I should thank you."
Gastens chuckled twice, and was about to speak, but found that Luna had opened the door, "I still have classes tonight. Tonight's students must want to hear how I, the former first apprentice, explain your magic. Why, is there anything to tell me?"
Gastens was stunned for two seconds and waved his hand casually.
"Whatever you want, tell them, I'm not a magician, and magic cannot make the revolution win. You can tell the others."
Luna nodded and pushed the door to say goodbye. Gastens watched the girl disappear, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared. When he was left alone in the office again, the loneliness of losing Daisy surged into his heart in a more intense state.
————————————
Leaving Gastens's office, Luna had a brief conversation with Sinke, who was waiting not far away, and then left. She bit her lip gently, left the factory with the same stride as usual, walked through Chaoyang Square, walked under the pyroxene lamp stand set up for carnival last night, walked through the fields, and returned to her dormitory in Liberation Area One. She stood at the door hesitated for a while, and gently pushed open the door. The evening sunlight poured in with her movements, illuminating the empty room.
Melen and Lavigne were still in the factory and had not come back. Luna turned around and closed the door, pulled up the curtains, blocked all the light outside the door, and sat on the edge of her bed in the dark, and then she trembled uncontrollably. Her trembling was so violent that she even hugged herself tightly without restraint. Waves of fear rushed towards her in the darkness, and each wave had Daisy's face.
"Please... let me go..."
A slight, almost indistinguishable sound rang in the darkness, and then it was Luna's soft sob. It took her a long time to calm down again.
Last night, when she saw Gastens release the forbidden spell magic in front of her, Luna almost killed herself. She once thought that she had lost forever and missed forever, and the things she had always missed were always by her side! And she foolishly believed that bastard Martinez and killed the lover of a great magician!
When those white lightnings fell from the sky, Luna always felt that the next lightning would hit her. She was extremely eager and missed the past, but she used her stupidity to completely isolate herself from a great magician and even became his enemy.
Luna Brewster, how stupid are you to cooperate with Martinez and kill Daisy?
After initial surprise, collapse and despair, Luna found that she had embarked on a road that could not be turned back. She could not miss the opportunity to approach a great magician again, and she could not allow the possibility of regaining her past glory to slip away from her side. Therefore, even if Daisy died in her arms would become an evil ghost and be entangled every day, Luna still had to try her best to approach Gastens, get familiar with Gastens, and then make Gastens fall in love with her.
She had lost it once, and she already knew the taste of losing it. So, she would never lose it again. Even if it would consume all her self and even burn her to ashes, she would not let go.
Nothing else, just because she had fallen from the highest point and saw the truth of this world. Just because she had truly seen the truth of this world. Only power, only power can make her have everything and get everything.
