Team villains except me
Chapter 419 "Who Said That?"
Garcia almost thought it was a dream. He looked at the spider, unable to make a sound.
His throat was still unable to work, but his eyes - those dark green eyes - were staring straight at Zhu Xi.
Zhu Xi used to think that Garcia's eyes were like a swamp, always filled with sticky, insatiable desire and madness. Now she discovered something.
Garcia's eye color is the same as her hair color.
Zhu Si frowned and looked at Garcia.
She didn't believe in coincidences at first, but she encountered many things related to Spider Wei in Carone, and she realized that Spider Wei might have left a lot of things for her in this world.
Zhu Wei was still the troublesome Zhu Wei. She should have expected this. Zhu Wei knew her. Zhu Wei would not just leave without saying goodbye. Zhu Wei left her with many things that she needed to slowly discover. Zhu Wei wanted her to keep some expectations in the long time ahead so that she would not feel so bored.
This is what Zhu Wei would do. Zhu Wei likes to surprise her.
Was Garcia's appearance also expected or even arranged by Zhu Wei? He was a descendant of Zhu Wei who had wood magic, needed her to save him, trusted her completely, and was adopted by her.
And she happens to have black hair and dark green eyes.
Zhu Wei looked at Garcia with cold eyes. Why did Zhu Wei arrange such a troublesome thing for her to be her family? Who gave her the power? If Zhu Wei knew her well enough, she should try her best to survive and wait until she appeared. She could kill all those who made Zhu Wei feel threatened. If Zhu Wei loved her enough, she should accompany her personally until the end of her life, instead of pushing Garcia in front of her like now.
Why does Zhuwei think that she will sympathize with Garcia and accept Garcia?
Zhu Qi sneered and spoke.
"Garcia, you are pathetic."
Garcia kept looking at Zhu Si. He had heard a lot about "Mrs. Zhu Si" from his grandfather. His great-grandfather told his grandfather with a guilty and jealous tone how much his mother cared about the forest witch named "Zhu Si" and how perverse and violent Zhu Si was.
When my grandfather told him this, he did not hide his great-grandfather's complicated attitude towards "Zhu Si", but my grandfather himself felt very sorry for not having met "Zhu Si". My grandfather felt that my great-grandfather missed "Zhu Si", and my great-grandfather regarded "Zhu Si" as an inseparable family member, and my grandfather also regarded "Zhu Si" as the only elder left in the world.
Grandfather never saw "Zhu Si". Grandfather told him about the existence of "Zhu Si", but he never thought he could meet her. Grandfather wanted him to stay away from that lady Zhu Si, partly out of respect for Zhu Si, and partly because he didn't want him to get hurt because of that lady Zhu Si. Grandfather hoped that he would have a smooth life and stay away from all difficulties and malice.
Garcia was slow to realize many things about his grandfather. In his young age, he felt that if he did not keep the connection with his grandfather, he would lose the meaning of existence. So he followed his grandfather's example and made a decisive decision about his life. He took over "Angel Wings" and dropped out of school.
Has he ever regretted it?
He didn't want to regret anything, he felt like he never had any regrets, but he wondered what he would have become if he had followed his grandfather's path.
In fact, there would be no difference. As long as Ada appeared, his life would be completely dead. Even if he chose to continue to go to school, Ada would make it impossible for him to show up at the academy on time, and then use his tuition to buy alcohol, forcing him to drop out of school. Even if he kept all the money and did not take over the "Angel Wings", Ada would still plunder all the money by various means.
Ada was smart and mean. Ada isolated him from society. Ada behaved very gentlemanly at first, so even if he realized something was wrong and wanted to ask for help, no one believed him. Later, after Ada revealed her true face, he could only go home with Ada in sympathetic eyes. Occasionally, someone would give him some food, which was already a brave kindness.
Just as he felt, Ada was very big, very smart, and very evil. No one wanted to anger Ada for him. But he was too young to save himself effectively, so he could only assimilate himself by instinct.
This was not his choice. This was his grandfather's choice. His grandfather asked Ada to take care of him. His grandfather didn't know that Ada was a violent alcoholic. His grandfather just asked him to be taken care of by many friends, hoping that they could help him within their ability.
In the end, only Ada showed up. Ada was normal at first, which was why Garcia was confused. Ada was really nice to him at first, and Ada treated him like a family member. But Ada gradually changed, and Garcia thought it was alcohol that framed Ada, and Garcia also believed that it was his fault.
Who does he want to depend on?
No one will come to save him. Who will take such a big risk to save him?
In the night trembling with fear, Garcia counted the people he knew one by one, and eliminated them one by one, until only one "Spider" was left.
A forest witch who was unpredictable but powerful, and who he might never meet in his lifetime, was also his only relative in the world. Only relatives could save him regardless of danger, and only relatives could make him trust and rely on them. His grandfather was like this, and his grandfather said his great-grandfather was like this too.
So if he could meet the Lady Zhu, she would be like this too. He had expected it, but he never thought he could meet Zhu. His luck had always been bad.
Is it sad?
Yes, it's sad.
“…No…No.”
Garcia managed to speak with difficulty. His throat was rapidly repairing, and he could not hear how hoarse his voice became. He could only hear his heart beating, deafeningly.
"I thought...I wouldn't meet...you."
He survived with all his might. Even though no one saved him, he survived. Although he had forgotten some memories and seemed to have lost the ability to live a normal life, he still survived by relying on his survival instinct. He kept the "Angel Wings" running, and he entered Abosgar and became a teacher in the Wood Magic Court.
There is a huge gap between the upper and lower limits of life. Everyone has his or her own way of life, but no matter whether it is extremely wonderful or extremely dull, the sun always rises as usual.
Garcia could not feel happy. Even if he wanted to live seriously, he still yearned for death. He had no passion for life and no expectations. He felt that his future was flat and he could see the end at a glance.
However, when he first heard the name "Zhu Yi" in the academy, his heart suddenly started beating violently. He hadn't felt that way for many years. He was breathing fast, and warmth welled up in his hands and feet. Tears kept flowing, as if he had a lot of grievances and pains that he could finally release at this moment.
"I feel... lucky."
He once thought that if he could meet that Lord Zhu, and confirm that Lord Zhu had not encountered any difficulties, then he would have completed all the tasks that his grandfather had entrusted to him. In that case, he would have a reason to die.
Of course, these were just his passive and desperate jokes.
When he really saw the Lord Zhu, part of his soul came alive. He not only wanted to make sure that Zhu was fine, but he also wanted to have a new family. He had long believed that there would be a family that would allow him to sleep peacefully in his dreams.
Although he had never seen Zhuyao before, Zhuyao had been with him for a long time in his impoverished life. He believed in Zhuyao completely and was even willing to give his life for her.
The hurt caused by the noble students was not enough to make him collapse. But when Zhu Si was around, this hurt made it impossible for him to remain silent.
"I...have imagined you appear countless times. I know you won't appear. Grandfather has never seen you, and he said I may never see you again in my life. But I believe you will appear, and you will beat Ada away.
And yet you showed up. I don’t understand.”
He didn't understand why Zhu Yi appeared but didn't look like his family. His mind was in a mess and he wondered whether this was his luck or misfortune. In the end, he couldn't help but run to Zhu Yi, hesitantly revealed his identity, and then asked Zhu Yi if he had encountered any difficulties.
He could no longer distinguish fantasy from reality. Could it be that the phantom he saw was reality?
The answer will soon be revealed, because the real spider, the spider he is not familiar with, not the spider of his family, is like the one his grandfather described. That kind of spider will not pay attention to him, will not care about him.
However, Zhu Qi asked him what was wrong, and then protected him impatiently, saying sarcastic and unpleasant words, protecting him just like in his familiar dream.
He happily felt that his fantasy was reality. Zhu Si had always been there, and had always been his family. His life was so grand and splendid, he was not alone, he had someone to protect him, even though Lady Zhu Si would not admit it.
But he has fallen into the dream he created. His past has become extremely confusing due to the loss of memory. He firmly believes in the warm world in his complicated dream, the world protected by the spider.
In that world, he was no longer a damp swamp. He had the courage to fight back against those noble students. He could even think of a way to fight against the nobles and gain a foothold in Abersgar College. He proposed a war of resistance and found civilian teachers who could join him in the war of resistance.
He applied to be the instructor of "Send You Home" because he knew Zhu Yi was his family. Family members have the right to be willful. He believed in the false illusion, so he was able to be so confident and at ease when he first came to the 1206 activity classroom. Even when Zhu Yi showed displeasure, he just thought that his bloodline was not authentic enough, so Zhu Yi was not very tolerant of him.
A very long dream.
When he woke up from the dream, he fell from the clouds again.
"You are different from what I imagined. But you are also somewhat the same. You light up my life, and I don't want to go back. I know I have done a lot of things wrong, and I wishfully regarded you as my family, but I don't want to go back to the heavy rain, it's too cold, and there is nothing there.
So I want to spend this month getting to know you as much as I can. I know you feel like your teammates are your family, and I want to get to know them and be like them.
It's really... difficult. After losing Phantom, the world has once again become very dark, very strange, and very difficult to understand."
His soul was stirring restlessly, he accepted the world again, and he was truly growing.
He was accepted by many people. He learned a lot, and his world finally became clear and began to have real sunshine.
Does he still want to experience death?
No. Not anymore. He still had many ordinary and happy moments waiting for him to find. When he attacked the drunk, he didn't think he would die. He just thought that he was no longer the Garcia of the past, and he had to say goodbye to the past. He couldn't ignore this happening. He was about to meet Zhu Yao - when he was with Zhu Yao, he must be a real, brand new Garcia.
He did it. Therefore, when he was infinitely close to death, he felt at ease. In his countless desires, death was a tempting apple. He wanted to swallow it in one bite, but there was always something holding him back. When he really swallowed the apple, he was brought back to his senses by the vibration of the communicator.
He was tied down by trivial life, and he still had many things he wanted to do. Death should not happen now, and he should not escape. He felt his throat itchy and swollen after swallowing the apple, and the heat was intense. He wanted to spit out the apple.
He still has something to say, he still has a lot to say.
"Despite this... I am not pathetic. Lady Zhuyi, I am not pathetic. If I am willing to go through those sad moments just to meet you, because I am not pathetic, I will definitely have a better life - you are all helping me.
I have no regrets. ”
Garcia's tone was very urgent, and it took him a long time to calm down and breathe normally after he finished speaking. But he continued to talk, chattering non-stop.
"I am lucky. I met you, and after seeing you, I gradually got better. No, not really. A long, long time ago, as long as I thought that you really existed, I wanted to live, and I would believe that tomorrow's sun would be bright. Even if it did not belong to me, I could still see it. Once I saw it, I felt that I could live, and I wanted to live very much.
This is a secret that belongs only to me. My grandfather doesn’t know it, Ada doesn’t know it either, only I know it.
Master Zhu, you will always be my family. I am willing to give you my heart and everything I have. I trust you. No matter how the world changes, I will always trust you. I know you don’t think so, and I also know that I am not worthy of being your family…”
"Who said that."
Zhu Yi looked at Garcia's face, which had turned blue due to lack of oxygen, and interrupted him.
Garcia stared at Zhuya blankly. He couldn't tell whether this was a dream or reality.
He looked at Zhu Qi and snorted before leaving, then called Norvia and a stranger in. Norvia asked him how he felt, and at the same time, the stranger approached him and told Norvia that he could go home.
With the help of strangers, he stood up. His clothes were stained with blood and smelled like pickled tomatoes and alcohol.
The sky was gloomy and the wind was howling.
The stranger and Norvia left first. Garcia stood there at a loss, the light was cold and dim, hesitating between illusion and reality.
The spider lit the lamp.
Zhu Yi hit him on the head with a flower vine, her tone cold but still full of impatience.
"Come on, what are you waiting for? I'll take you home."
