Ling Wu Ji looked at her in a bit of astonishment.

"I mean, you shouldn't flirt with other women while your partner - no, the person you're having sex with is still lying in your bedroom!"

"I think one of you and I must have something wrong with our brains!"

"That person must be Ling Jun!"

"I say, even if I did say something suggestive, the person who took the initiative to come over and said that he wanted to come into the room as a guest, couldn't it be you? Saint Lady, if those words can be regarded as teasing in your eyes, then a woman who doesn't reveal her real age but has a perfect appearance runs to a man's house alone late at night, what exactly is the implication of this, Saint Lady, do you really not understand?"

Yustisa's face suddenly turned red: "Even if you praise my appearance, I won't be happy..."

“Is that the point?”

It was only then that Ling Wuji realized that this man was not always as holy and cold as he had imagined.

Or maybe his brain circuits aren't normal.

I guess he developed some serious psychological problems because he had been alone for hundreds of years.

In this case, it doesn't seem like the right choice to give her the work?

Justisa Rizleich von Einzbern also reacted at this time, and took a few deep breaths, finally putting her hand on her chest to calm down. However, because the figure of this artificial human was too good, Ling Wuji felt that her current posture revealed a kind of indescribable charm, and there seemed to be some ambiguous breath in the air. But the two of them met eyes at the same time, so Ling Wuji looked away feeling a little guilty.

But the Winter Saint didn't think much about it, she just tilted her head, giving people a cute feeling.

Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 48: Impressions

Even if we don't talk about it from a personal perspective but only from a utilitarian perspective, in the eyes of Justissa Rizleich von Einzbern, the Saint of Winter, Ling Wuji is indeed a very good candidate for a partner. Firstly, this person does not look at the problem of artificial humans with arrogance and prejudice like ordinary magicians, and can even be said to be deep enough, although he always looks at the problem with a habitual pessimism. Secondly, this person's status is enough to provide shelter for the current Einzbern family before the reform is launched.

Of course, to her, the positioning of Ling Wuji is indeed a bit confusing.

It's hard to say what his attitude towards the world is.

When you think he hopes the world will become a better place, he intervenes in worldly affairs without any scruples, even if many people will die in the turmoil caused by his intervention; and when you think he doesn't care at all about how the world will become, he will say some logically tenable words, as if he is really considering the world.

At least it won't let this world slide into the abyss of destruction.

As the so-called "Saint of Winter", although she has never called herself by this title, in her opinion, she has no reason to be called a saint, but she does have a determination to sacrifice herself for a great mission - in fact, this is also one of the reasons why Christians canonize their believers, that is, the "saint" himself dies in order to spread his faith - and Justisa's previous mission was to use the Holy Grail to fulfill the wish of saving all mankind, but this path has been completely denied by Ling Wuzhi. As for now, the mission she has recognized, in addition to that wish, is to find a way out for artificial humans, and to prevent the Demon King from destroying the world for some inexplicable reasons.

If Ling Wuji were to eavesdrop on her thoughts at this moment, he would probably say self-deprecatingly that in the eyes of others he was actually a devil.

Moreover, her thoughts actually coincided with the one he had in mind as the candidate for Pope, Awashima Seri.

In fact, Justisa herself does get along very well with Awashima Seri.

In her opinion, Ling Wuji's problem is that he is too young and has suddenly been placed in a high position. Although he does not have much desire to control power, at least he does not have the idea of ​​using power to make plans for himself, his thoughts will still radiate with the authority brought by his high position, so he must have a mature and stable person by his side to advise him on his words and deeds.

"To be honest, if you weren't the one saying this, it would actually be quite right."

When Ling Wu Ji heard what the Winter Saint said, he just responded casually.

"Am I not mature enough?"

She stretched out her green fingers, pointed at the tip of her nose in a rather coquettish manner, and said.

"From an age perspective, you are indeed mature enough. But the Winter Saint who can be thrown off balance by just a few words can't really be called stable, right?"

"It was just an accident."

"In my opinion, if you want to control the world, you must always be prepared to face unexpected events," Ling Wuji said casually. "Besides, what you call maturity, or maturity, is just referring to those who are adept at handling affairs and have formed their own set of old methods. But from another perspective, the result that their methods can lead to is definitely to maintain the status quo to the greatest extent. For mature and steady people, the status quo is the most stable, convenient, and easiest to handle situation, because that way things will not go beyond the scope of their understanding and quick handling. But you are someone who is eager to change the world, right? From this perspective, what reason do you have to classify yourself as a so-called mature and stable person?"

Yustisa knew that Ling Wuji was trying to change the concept.

But she still felt that this was one of the rare things about Ling Wuji that made people feel that he was not hopeless.

He is sharp enough.

Whether for yourself or for others.

Before returning to the Einzbern family, she had briefly traveled with the Saber summoned by the Japanese natural saint, Kamijou Kaori. Although the two Chinese servants soon left their team, during the time they were together, she had heard the Saber judge Ling Wuji, saying that he was a natural swordsman because of his innate sharpness. This character, combined with his own talent, allowed him to be invincible in the process of fighting the enemy -

Although she later said that Ling Wu Ji's current swordsmanship has completely surpassed the scope of what his talent could help with.

But unfortunately, although this person is able to keenly perceive his own shortcomings, he has never made the determination to change himself and just muddles through.

"Although what you said is not wrong, what you see as shortcomings may not be shortcomings for me. If I clearly know what goals I want to achieve and the life I want to live, and the so-called 'shortcomings' you mentioned will not bring me any obstacles on the road to this goal, then, can that trait really be called a shortcoming?"

When Yustisa heard what he said, she could only sigh.

At this time, she felt that it would be better for the other party not to be so sensitive.

At least then he wouldn't have said something so hard to refute.

Seeing that she had nothing to say, Ling Wu Ji just shook his head.

He certainly didn't think it was a happy thing to silence a nerd girl who had been sitting in the Einzbern Castle all day and was then sent to the Holy Grail as a sacrifice.

However, seeing that the two of them had fallen into such a situation where there was nothing to say, he was a little confused for a moment: should he send the guest away now, or should he talk about work? Speaking of which, it seemed that the two of them had never talked about the reward. Although Ling Wuji felt that the goal of the Winter Saint should still be that wish, so she wanted to help him, but after all, he still had to pay others for helping him, right?

So what to give?

Ling Wuji found that he seemed to have nothing to show for himself.

Although in the eyes of outsiders, being able to become Ling Wuji's confidant is already the greatest benefit.

Just as the two were silent, the bedroom door suddenly opened. Arisa, wearing only a loose white shirt, dazedly put the dishes of instant noodles in the kitchen. When she came back from the kitchen, she saw a woman sitting in the middle of the living room. She was wearing a summer dress, with white hair and red eyes. She was very conspicuous. She woke up immediately: "You are..."

"Justissa Rizleich von Einzbern."

Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 49: Confession

Arisa Kubuin had heard of this name.

And this was one of the things that had been making her so upset lately.

But she had only heard other believers frequently mention this name during their consciousness exchanges, and had never seen it with her own eyes. But now she actually encountered this situation, so she immediately became alert.

But she soon realized that her current attire was inappropriate.

But the other person just sat there with a proper manner. Even Arisa, who had seen many beautiful girls around Ling Wuji, was amazed by her appearance. It was so exquisite that it didn't seem like something that could appear naturally on a human being. It was as if a peerless craftsman had carved it out of flawless jade. Coupled with her appearance with white hair and red eyes, it would definitely leave a deep impression on people. Moreover, she knew very well that Ling Wuji's XP system was definitely not that of a poor lolita, but a mature big sister. Therefore, the person sitting there was definitely in Ling Wuji's XP system——

So the more she looked at it, the more she felt that this was her lifelong enemy.

After all, she was originally far ahead of other believers. This was her uniqueness to Ling Wuji, or the god. After this person joined the system of believers, her uniqueness, even with the active privileges given to her by Ling Wuji, could not allow her to maintain her absolute lead. Instead, she was shaken by the impact.

But even though she knew this was her archenemy, she didn't know how to fight him at this moment, so she could only introduce herself blankly: "Arisa, the shrine."

Then he turned his gaze uneasily to Ling Wuji.

As if this would help her in any way.

From Justisa's perspective, this famous lady from a secular family, apart from being a follower of Ling Wuji, had nothing to commend her. Maybe her appearance counted? But for an artificial person like her, appearance, which could be adjusted naturally, had no meaning at all.

So if you think about it carefully, it is really hard to imagine that there would be such a person around Ling Wuji now, or that he would actually accept such a person around him.

She used the seed of faith in her heart to convey a message to Ling Wuji, saying, "Speaking of which, Ling Jun, what was the reason for you choosing her?"

"Easy to control?"

"What a complete scumbag."

"Well, I don't deny that I was a jerk in the way I treated her."

However, since the matter has been done, Ling Wuji certainly will not regret his original words and actions.

When Yusitisa heard Ling Wuzhi say this, her eyes turned toward the blonde girl with pity and tenderness.

Although it has been emphasized many times, it must be said that there is a reason why this person is called a saint, at least in terms of appearance. Once she makes this gesture, it is as if a beam of white light shines from the infinitely distant sky, as if she is an angel who can lead others to some supreme place. When she looks at Arisa Shrine with that kind of gaze, the originally weak girl who longs to live under the protection of others suddenly feels like she has been redeemed, and falls involuntarily under this pity and tenderness. The hostility in her heart instantly melts away. After a few words of conversation, Arisa Shrine has even sat beside her, like a child, telling her about her troubles and concerns, and finally even puts her head on her thighs, letting the white-haired and red-eyed woman gently stroke her blonde hair.

"This is a bit too outrageous..."

Ling Wuji, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't understand what was happening at all.

Why did Arisa of the Shrine let go of her hostility so easily?

And why would the Winter Saint reveal such a deep maternal glow at this moment?

Lara Sing... No, Justisia Rizleich von Einzbern is the one who can be my mother?

Of course, it is not difficult for Wu Ji to understand if you say that the blonde girl has some similarities with Char.

But the Winter Saint...

Ling Wuji found that he really couldn't see through that person.

"I think you are too rational. In fact, if you were a little gentler to her, or even just coaxed her, she would open her heart to you completely. But it is precisely because you are too upright and harsh to her that she regards doing that as an act of begging for courage from you, rather than the tenderness between lovers."

He didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Ling Wu Ji felt that the tone of the Winter Saint’s voice was particularly soft at this moment.

"But a relationship built on deception will definitely be fake in the end, right?"

"But she has already exhausted her courage to approach you. She no longer has the courage to open her eyes and see the truth of the world. What she wants is not just to be treated gently by you, whom she regards as her savior? Even if it is just fake, it is her happiness, her salvation, the candy that she can savor for the rest of her life, and the foundation that supports her to continue to move forward in this world."

Ling Wuji was silent for a long time, and finally said: "I just realized now that you are the kind of emotional expert or confidant sister?"

"Yes, if you have any troubles, you can talk to me, your sister, okay?"

"no."

Ling Wu Ji said immediately.

If he had any troubles, it would definitely not be something that someone of her level could deal with. Speaking it out would be of no use. Although at his current level, there was basically nothing that could cause him trouble, so naturally he would not have any troubles.

"Let's put aside other things. Confessing to some people really won't solve the problem." She just lowered her head to look at the girl who put her head on her knees. Her blood-red pupils seemed to have pity and a kind of silence like ice and snow. She gently combed the girl's hair and said, "But just like this child now, she told me those things, but it didn't seem to solve her worries. I don't think you will really change your attitude in a short time and use lies to exchange for her peace of mind. But, she has found peace now, hasn't she? Even if it's only for a moment, even if it can't last long, but this is the meaning of confession.

“That’s what communication is all about.”

She raised her head, looked directly at the boy, and said word by word, "You said that I just decided to help all of humanity on my own, and I never thought about whether humans themselves were willing to be helped in that way. So, you don't really understand the meaning of communication? Why do you deny it now?"

PS I suddenly remembered that I haven’t posted any character pictures for a long time——

But the two are the same in the setting.jpg

Volume 4: Where is Penglai: Chapter 50: Rituals, Thoughts, and Chance Encounters

Although Justissa Rizleich von Einzbern refuted his argument with her own words, Ling Wuji was unrepentant. He did not think that he could be the kind of hero who could gather crowds by just raising his arm. Of course, according to TG's theory, "from the masses, to the masses", he had never been among the masses and had no related ideas. He had always been clear about his position in the reform or turmoil he initiated. He could only ensure to the greatest extent possible that the wall between the inner and outer worlds would not be rebuilt again.

This is the only thing he can guarantee now.

As for the rest, Ling Wuji was not the kind of person who was particularly adept at dealing with ever-changing situations. His methods of breaking the status quo were generally very simple. He simply used the power he controlled to pave the way.

So communication is not necessary for him at all.

Apart from the few life-saving hairs of the Monkey King, he has basically relied on outsiders.
