Summoner: Recognize Kain as the big brother at the beginning

Chapter 118 I would rather be alone than settle for someone else

The countdown in my mind ended and the scene in front of me suddenly changed.

On the top of the tree, the ancient lamp that always burns is still on.

Yuxi silently said in her heart: "I won't stay for anyone. I just want to complete the mission and go home!"

He shook his head helplessly, holding Xishi and quickly moved towards the academy.

But at this moment, I heard sobbing in my arms.

"Woooo..."

Yuxi asked, "Why are you crying again?"

Xishi choked up and said, "Kai...does he like you?"

Yuxi explained: "He lost his memory. Maybe there are some sequelae that make him unable to distinguish emotions."

Xi Shi questioned: "Can you not tell who you like? Even a fool knows who he likes."

Yuxi was silent for a while, then asked: "But does this have anything to do with your crying?"

After hesitating for a moment, Xi Shi stammered, "I...it has nothing to do with it, but I just want to cry..."

Yuxi was somewhat helpless: "Why are you always like this? Okay, stop crying. It's really ugly when you cry..."

Xishi's voice was filled with anger: "What did you say...put me down and I can walk on my own!"

She twisted a little angrily, and Yuxi's arm hurt and she almost lost her hold.

Yuxi dissuaded him: "Don't move..."

Yuxi was helpless: "It will take a long time for you to walk slowly by yourself, I just want to go back quickly."

Xi Shi said angrily: "I can walk slowly, don't bother me."

Yuxi apologized helplessly: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that you were ugly, I apologize."

Xishi was still not satisfied: "I want to walk by myself... otherwise people from the academy will see me."

Yuxi looked into the distance and said slowly, "It's still some distance from the academy. I'll take you there. We'll be there soon. There's no need to wait until dawn. No one will notice our whereabouts."

Then he reminded calmly: "If you insist on leaving, I'm afraid you won't arrive until tomorrow noon."

Xishi was originally a little dissatisfied, but seeing Yuxi still hugging her tightly, she couldn't help but act coquettishly: "I don't care~ Who told you to say I'm ugly... I don't want you to carry me around! Idiot~"

However, Yuxi was confused: "What happened to her? I already apologized."

He felt helpless: "Why are you still angry with me?"

So, he sighed and said helplessly: "In that case, then you can go by yourself."

Yuxi gently put Xishi down. She was stunned, still hugging his neck.

Yuxi squatted down again and cleverly avoided her arm.

Xi Shi was stunned and stammered: "You...you..."

Yuxi responded calmly: "Didn't you say you wanted to leave by yourself?"

After that, he left without looking back, leaving only one sentence: "Bye."

As he walked, he complained in his heart: "What an ignorant girl. My arms have been numb since I carried you to the Northern Wasteland. Do you really think it's easy for me to carry you?"

Then he added angrily: "If you want to leave, go ahead. I don't owe you anything!"

Yuxi was feeling restless and moved all the way back to her residence, knocking hard on the door before entering.

Daji stepped forward, eyes full of concern, and whispered softly: "Master, why haven't you come back for a day?"

Yuxi frowned slightly and responded briefly: "I encountered something."

A hint of curiosity flashed in Daji's eyes: "What about that girl? Does she like you?"

Yuxi chuckled: "No, I don't like it."

He shook his head and continued, "I've already asked her, and she said she doesn't like me and told me not to be so narcissistic."

Daji was thoughtful and murmured softly: "Is that so? Maybe I was wrong."

Daji walked gracefully to the tea table and poured a glass of water for Yuxi.

Yuxi took the cup of water and took a sip: "Thank you, Daji."

A sly look flashed in Daji's eyes, and she said softly, "By the way, Master, your pet has been found."

Yuxi showed a delighted expression on her face: "Found it? Where is it?"

Daji replied softly, "Inside the Zhaixing Tower."

Yuxi frowned and thought: "Zhaixing Tower?"

Daji explained: "The Zhaixing Tower was built by King Zhou for Daji. It is deep in the mountain. I went to look for it secretly, but was stopped before I could get close."

Yuxi thought for a moment and said, "The Zhaixing Tower you mentioned should be the Tongtian Tower. It is indeed forbidden for outsiders to enter there."

Daji scratched her ear and said affirmatively: "But your pet is in there."

Yuxi hesitated for a moment and decided: "Well, I will go and ask how to enter the Tower of Babel tomorrow."

Daji replied meekly, "Yes, Master."

Yuxi thanked him softly: "Thank you for your hard work, Daji."

Daji shook her head gently: "It's not hard, the master's business is Daji's business."

Yuxi whispered softly: "You go and have a rest."

Daji nodded meekly and uttered a soft "Hmm~"

After that, Daji went to bed obediently.

Yuxi had just rested at the tea table for a while when it was dawn. When she opened the door, she found Dongfang Yao waving at her eagerly.

"Hey, junior brother, you didn't come to class yesterday?" Dongfang Yao asked curiously.

Yuxi replied calmly: "I didn't go."

Dongfang Yao's eyes flashed with cunning: "That junior sister is not here either, are you guys..."

Yuxi frowned slightly: "Don't let your imagination run wild."

He went on to explain: “I just treat her as a sister.”

The next sentence in my mind is: "No matter how lustful I am, I won't have any thoughts about minors!"

Dongfang Yao scratched his head and asked in confusion: "Then where did you go?"

Yuxi said calmly: "Let's go look for the treasure in the ruins in the back mountain."

"Treasure?" Dongfang Yao showed an expression of disbelief: "Is there really a treasure here?"

Yuxi nodded: "Of course."

Dongfang Yao excitedly held Yuxi's arm and said, "Brother, take me with you!"

Yuxi hesitated: "But I still need to go to class."

Dongfang Yao was stunned: "Today is Saturday, there are no classes."

Yuxi was a little embarrassed: "Is there a day off here?"

Dongfang Yao smiled and explained: "Of course, we have a day off every Saturday and Sunday. There is also a week-long month every two months, which means we have seven consecutive days off. Don't you know?"

Yuxi scratched her head: "I really don't know about this..."

Dongfang Yao asked curiously: "The class schedule is right next to the bed, how come you don't know it?"

Yuxi's heart tightened, but she pretended to be calm: "Except for the first day I came here, I have never really slept in bed."

He yawned and said tiredly, "Since I don't have classes, I'll go to sleep for a while."

Dongfang Yao hurriedly stopped him: "Wait! Junior brother, let's go treasure hunting together!"

Dongfang Yao reached out to pull Yuxi and swung her.

But it reminded Yuxi of a not-so-good experience, so he pushed Dongfang Yan's hand away and said coldly: "Don't touch me!"

Dongfang Yao patiently urged: "Brother, go, go! There are many exciting competitions in the next two days."

Yuxi responded rudely: "Get lost! I won't go!"

Dongfang Yao was a little surprised and asked, "When did you become so fierce?"

But it didn't affect him, and he continued to introduce: "In fact, there are really many interesting competitions in the past two days, such as the right and wrong debate, word puzzle guessing competition, pot throwing, and the most exciting one hundred people dream competition."

Yuxi's tone softened a bit: "Oh? I've also signed up for the Dream Competition."

Dongfang Yao laughed excitedly and said, "Haha, I've signed up too! It starts tomorrow morning."

There was a sly glint in Yuxi's eyes: "I won't show mercy when the time comes."

Dongfang Yao smiled indifferently and said, "Junior brother, you are only practicing magic, do I need you to show mercy? Don't forget, I am practicing both magic and martial arts! Although I have only learned it for a few days, I am definitely better than you!"

Yuxi snorted softly: "Then let's wait and see."

But he secretly added in his heart: "When the time comes, I will challenge you first, and let you dare to call me Junior Brother again!"

After Yuxi finished speaking, she stepped into the house, ready to take a short rest, but was stopped by Dongfang Yao.

Dongfang Yao suggested excitedly: "Junior brother, don't be in a hurry to rest! Let's go to the square now. It's the time for the right and wrong debate and word puzzle guessing. Moreover, the topic of this debate is very interesting. Let's go and join in the fun."

Yuxi raised her eyebrows slightly and asked curiously, "Oh? What's the topic?"

Dongfang Yao blinked and smiled mysteriously, "The topic is: Would you choose to spend your life with someone who loves you or someone you love? Junior brother, if it were you, what would you choose?"

Yuxi thought for a moment and said firmly: "I will choose the one I love."

Dongfang Yao asked curiously: "Why?"

Yuxi responded affectionately: "Because life is long, if you can't spend it with the one you love, then what's the point?"

Dongfang Yao asked curiously: "But what if the other person doesn't love you?"

Yuxi said firmly: "If there is really no other way, then I will die alone."

"I would rather be alone than settle for anything else."
