"So what you're saying is that no matter what I do, no matter how hard I try, it won't have any effect?"

Ling Wuji's eyes immediately turned back to the game screen on the computer. He casually moved the mouse and said, "Although I have no right to say such things, after all, my life ideal has never included being a wage earner. But for a social machine to function, it needs not only talented leaders, but also hardworking parts. Although you, Miss, don't need to be a part."

"so……"

"But why are you so sure I will abandon you?"

Yeah, why?

Arisa of the Shrine said in her heart.

Maybe it’s because the women who gathered around Ling Wu Ji are too outstanding and too dazzling, and in comparison, she can’t find any advantages at all, so she can only feel ashamed of herself?

Why would he always be so nice to her?

It's obvious that those people did a better job.

And she could only do some boring chores.

She even needs someone like Seri Awashima to help her do it.

"I think reincarnation is also a technical job. Personal ability cannot represent everything about a person."

Ling Wu Ji was just speaking casually.

If he truly believed that personal ability was the essence of one's true self, he would not have wanted to discuss this issue apart from his ability when he first realized his true nature.

"So, the reason you chose me was because of my family background?"

Arisa of the Shrine said with self-pity.

"I can't deny that there's no reason for that."

Ling Wuji just said casually, without even turning his head, just staring at the computer screen intently and said.

The girl lowered her head so low that her neck seemed to be broken.

"Actually, if I had to say it, I chose you for many reasons, such as your family background, your personality that naturally suits you to be someone else's believer, and the fact that I needed a test subject with a higher success rate. After all, you were the first target, so I chose you."

So, is this the truth?

Arisa of the Shrine said quietly in her heart, feeling increasingly heavy-hearted.

"But I don't think you need to be so self-deprecating," Ling Wuji suddenly changed the subject and said, "After all, wasn't it you who took the initiative to make our relationship like this? If I hated you, I would have rejected you instead of accepting this change. Since you had the courage to make that choice and the courage to leave me in Japan, why do you feel disappointed now? Could it be that if I return to China, your current situation will get better?"

Arisa raised her head, combed her hair back with her hands, and forced a smile: "In your opinion, once a person musters up courage at a certain moment, will she always be brave? No, I can't do that. The courage at that moment has already used up all my courage. Of course, I will feel extremely happy because of the result achieved by that courage, but now I don't have the extra courage to encourage me to continue. As my god, can't you give me a little bit of grace?"

Ling Wu Ji sighed.

He stood up, walked to the girl, held her face and kissed her deeply.

Isn't it going to be like this in the end?

Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 44: Relationship

Arisa felt her body was lighter than ever before, as if she had lost all weight, as if she was floating on a sea of ​​clouds. She could clearly feel the boy's temperature and weight, and when the two of them were tightly pressed together, she could even hear his breathing and heartbeat. Every move of the boy seemed to stir the fire in her heart, and the restless heat made her tender skin ooze with sweat. She should have been addicted to the pleasure brought by this repetitive movement, but her mind was becoming more and more empty, like a fish that had lost water on a dry land, so she desperately wanted to grab something to fill her void -

By the time she came to her senses, night had already fallen quietly.

She lay there, letting the large area of ​​white leak out. She was already exhausted at this time, but she looked at Ling Wuzhi's face which was so close to her. The boy was certainly not like her. He was just staring at the ceiling in boredom. But in this quiet night, she felt a kind of sincere happiness, as if filled with joy.

"Ling Jun, tell me, if we do this, will it be possible..."

"Are you talking about pregnancy?" Ling Wuji just said casually, "As far as I know, the possibility is very small."

"why?"

The blonde girl couldn't help but touch her smooth belly.

She knew exactly what was in there now.

And she also knew that this was not her safe period.

"In short, if you want to gain a greater sense of security by having my child, I don't deny that possibility, but it's a bit too low," Ling Wuji said casually, "Not to mention, I don't want to shoulder this kind of responsibility at this age."

Arisa of the Shrine could only smile bitterly.

Then she turned around and hugged the boy tightly.

"What? Do you want to continue?"

"Do not……"

She just silently felt the boy's breath.

She should have expected this.

She shouldn't have invested this level of affection in this boy.

Just like what her grandfather had told her, even if she wanted to join Ling Wuji's system, she had to "put herself first". Ling Wuji also said that the relationship between him and her was more like a contract or even a transaction. He promised to protect her, and she provided services for him. This young man didn't seem like the kind of person who would be easily moved by others. In fact, if she hadn't taken the initiative, she would even suspect that Ling Wuji was actually asexual. After all, no matter how you look at it, this young man didn't seem like he would have such worldly desires.

But in a sense, it was precisely because of his appearance and his lofty status that made Arisa of the Shrine Temple like a moth to a flame. She had a humble wish, hoping that this heavenly boy would grow a moving flower on the stone for her, and would only shine warm light on her when he treated everyone in the world equally.

But she failed.

Or in other words, we still can’t find the end of this road until now.

Perhaps to her, this boy can only be someone she looks up to but never gets?

But at this moment, the warmth so close to her is reminding her that he is right in front of her, right beside her, what else do she want?

"Maybe I'm just too greedy..."

She said in a low voice.

Even though this boy always gave her a feeling of being close yet distant, even on a night like this, she could only draw some courage from the warmth of the boy's body, even though she would always be a loser and could never get closer to the boy's heart, but this little bit of courage inspired her to continue walking on that road with no end in sight, waiting for the redemption that would come at an unknown time.

Perhaps this little bit of courage will soon disappear.

Her weakness and anxiety will continue to creep up on her, driving her to continue to beg the boy for courage. She will most likely be stuck in this quagmire for the rest of her life, until she grows old and fades.

But she is such a weak and stupid person.

She could only see the light in front of her and could not find any other way out.

……

Ling Wuji is not a dull person.

Although Awashima Seri had told him that if he wanted to be a qualified central air conditioner, no matter how well he understood other people's minds, he had to play dumb at the right time, but when Wu Ji recalled his past, he found that his current relationships with men and women were not too chaotic. Of course, if he really wanted to mess up his relationships with men and women, he always had the opportunity. However, just as Arisa Kouin had made an impression on him, he always looked at problems from an outsider's perspective.

Or to be more precise, he has no way to anchor his coordinates in this world.

Perhaps a certain wish has been lingering clearly in his heart ever since he crossed the barrier of life and death, making him feel alienated from this world at all times. This sense of alienation instinctively makes him reject the approach of all people and things, and refuses to become dependent on those people and things.

As for his current relationship with Arisa of the Shrine…

Logically speaking, any normal man would not refuse.

From a normal person's perspective, he should feel guilty towards the girl and Asagami Fujino, but he himself does not feel that disgusted with the current situation, so for the time being, he cannot find any good method for the other levels of "Six Harmonies Sword Technique" except for "Yin and Yang", because he always has that fatal sense of alienation towards this world.

Of course, even with just the current "Six Harmonies Sword Technique", it is enough for him to look down upon the mysterious heroes and he rarely encounters an opponent.

So he was too lazy to think about it.

However, hearing the voice of the girl so close to him, Wu Ji couldn't help but wonder if he had become even more cruel. How could he actually ignore such a voice?

But what if we just ignore it?

The relationship between them was not normal.

Ling Wuji could certainly feel pity for her, but the affection he had for her was definitely not enough for him to admit that she was the indispensable person for the rest of his life. And out of his selfish possessiveness, he would never let her go.

So we can only maintain this neither-good-nor-bad relationship.

Seeing that she had fallen into a deep sleep, Ling Wuji put on his clothes, got up and rummaged through the refrigerator. Naturally, he could only find Coke. Thinking of the girl's situation, he had no choice but to go out, although he only bought instant noodles and sausages based on his previous experience.

He walked out of the supermarket near his home and heard someone say, "I didn't expect that Lingjun would start studying the creation process of life at such a young age..."

Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 45: Communication

When Ling Wuji heard those words, he almost staggered.

However, he still managed to calm down, and saw Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern standing there in a summer dress and a thin white long skirt. Her face looked pure and holy, and there didn't seem to be any evil thoughts about that sentence. Ling Wuji didn't bother to care how she found out about the situation inside his home. Although he didn't report the situation about his residence in the "Taixujian" to her, he didn't set up any silent barrier for his residence. She did speculate what happened inside through information such as sound, but it made Ling Wuji feel that his privacy was being pried into.

However, this woman who looked to be in her twenties, with a strange yet exceptionally beautiful appearance, still spoke to Ling Wuji in that saintly tone: "However, I heard that according to the Chinese mystical side, people at your level rarely leave offspring..."

"so?"

For a moment, Ling Wu Ji was unsure of the other party's intention in finding him.

"So, if you want to leave offspring, can you try our artificial human technology?"

She looked at Ling Wuji's expression and spoke tentatively.

Ling Wuji didn't look annoyed. Of course, he didn't have any real feelings about leaving offspring, so he didn't feel offended by Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern's words. He just said absentmindedly, "Let's not talk about the fact that I'm not ready to be a father yet, and let's not talk about the many problems that arise from your use of your technology. I just want to ask you a question. A magician will take in a disciple, essentially just to leave behind a copy of himself to complete the goal of reaching the 'root' on his behalf. Humans probably leave offspring because they instinctively want to leave behind a part of their 'self', or a more perfect 'self'. But if I have achieved immortality, at least I have never doubted that I can do it, then what is the point of leaving offspring?"

"Contribute to the development and diversification of human society?" Justisa said after a moment's hesitation.

Ling Wuji even wanted to applaud her for saying this.

If she were to take the civil service exam, she would probably not do too badly on the essay.

However, this argument obviously did not convince him, so he just continued to walk back to his residence nonchalantly, saying, "I think, if you want to find humans to help you experiment with your artificial human race and find your way out, you might as well go find those Nantong and Nitong. They must have this need, and even among the magicians..."

Ling Wuji originally wanted to say that magicians might welcome this technology that could adjust the qualifications of their offspring, but when he thought of the treatment that he had seen those androids in the Qianjieshu family receive as containers for magic batteries, he felt that he had overestimated the moral limits of those lunatics.

Even the moral bottom line of ordinary people may not be that good.

Just because there is a need doesn’t mean those people can really be good parents, right?

Of course, even without the technology of artificial humans, this problem is still a widespread social problem in the secular world. Not to mention that the wall between the secular side and the mysterious side has only been partially demolished, and it is not yet time to promote that technology on the secular side.

"Although you look reckless, you are actually quite cautious."

When the Winter Saint heard the young man say this with such concern, she sighed for a moment.

Ling Wuji just rolled his eyes and said, "Of course I can act recklessly, but by then I'm afraid the whole society will have to run according to my will. I just don't have much interest in that kind of world."

"So, if one day you change your mind, you'll conquer the world or something?"

"Maybe, but there are many ways to conquer the world. Even if I do nothing, maybe the world will crawl at my feet."

Justisa had been following the young man. When she heard the young man say those words calmly, her heart was inexplicably shaken, as if she was witnessing the birth of a legend. But when she thought about it carefully, Ling Wuji's current situation was enough to be considered a legend, right?

She felt a little curious about the boy.

But she saw him take out the key and open the door, but he planned to leave her outside.
