Anime, starting from Re:Zero (Zero - Starting Life)

Gao Wen had already started reading and ignored her.

Luo Qixi was furious, but she couldn't think of a third thing to talk about. After standing there helplessly and furious for a while, she simply lay down on the table.

My dignity as a teacher has been shattered to the point where it cannot be picked up again.

She looked at Sylphiet, raised her hand, and shamelessly asked:

"Can I have lunch first?"

She didn't have breakfast.

"Okay!"

Sylphiet is always so gentle and lovely, like a little angel. Roxy immediately felt healed.

At noon, Luo Qixi ate another portion, while Gao Wen had one less portion and only cleaned up his sister's leftovers.

After returning home in the evening, everyone prepared a grand welcome party for Luo Qixi at the Lorz residence.

Turns out, the vibe she felt that morning was right.

Lady Senis and Lilia were helping to prepare in advance the very surprise she had subconsciously imagined.

Luo Qixi thought:

Don’t some people like to use the word “turning point” to describe key moments in life? Especially some playwrights.

If you do the same.

She felt that today should be one of them.

And if her future self were to make the assessment, it would be a crucial one.

Even if every time she thought of it, she couldn't help but get angry and beat someone up.

Chapter 22: Enlightenment (Seeking votes)

Loki's room in the Lorze family is next to Gawain and Sylphiet's.

On the first night of moving in, Luo Qixi felt like she had a sharp blade that she could use to attack someone in the future:

I didn't expect that Gao Wen actually slept with his sister.

It seems like he is almost five years old?

So childish!

The human community in this world likes to use "five years" as an important measurement standard. Children under five years old are considered to be infants, those between five and ten years old are probably called children or teenagers, those between ten and fifteen years old are teenagers or young adults, and those over fifteen years old are adults.

Of course, in reality, children from poor families and children with a little talent are basically considered to be able to stand on their own feet and survive on their own when they are over ten years old. It is also common for them to find a partner and start a family in their early ten years old.

Even in the most prosperous and peaceful kingdom of Asura, Luo Qixi could frequently see adventurer groups composed of children between the ages of ten and fifteen. Of course, as to why she could often see them was another impolite topic.

Simply put, a five-year-old is already considered a big kid.

In another five years, we will be able to become independent.

And such a Gawain is actually a clingy kid who can't sleep without holding his sister. Lokixi almost fell down on the bed and rolled around laughing just thinking about it.

It was probably half a month ago.

Because of his height, Luo Qixi realized for the first time that Gawain was just a child.

But since moving into Gao Wen's house, she had been repeatedly reminded and confirmed of this within just a few hours:

Gawain is still a child.

And he is also an uncivilized fool who is very clumsy in life and emotions.

Only in her heart, Luo Qixi felt guilty for having placed her own expectations on Gawain.

'I actually longed for such a child to support my life.'

"I intend to rely on his recognition to gain the motivation to move forward."

Sitting in front of the window of the new room, looking at the beautiful moonlight outside, Luo Qixi felt deeply ashamed of this:

"I've really gone completely astray."

Why did you embark on this journey in the first place?

Why would you run away from home regardless of your own safety?

Luo Qixi couldn't help but torture herself.

All along, I only told myself there were three reasons:

First, I yearn for the scenes described by Teacher Kander and want to see the scenery around the world.

Second, I like magic, I like this mysterious power, and I want to learn more and explore deeper.

Third, I am a foreign object and for my parents’ sake I don’t want to be a burden to them all the time.

But I also know there is a fourth point that I am reluctant to admit:

Fourth, I wanted to escape from the village.

I wanted to escape for my own sake.

It turned out to be the case.

Yes, it has always been like this. Even without Mr. Kander's description, I would still want to escape. Even without the power brought to me by magic, I would still want to escape.

Travel and magic were not my original pursuits.

They are simply tools to achieve my original quest.

My pursuit is: escape.

But, shouldn't it be like this?

I clearly feel that the scenery along the way is very, very beautiful, even though I often encounter unpleasant and annoying things.

Obviously, I really, really like magic. I always feel fulfilled when studying at Lanoa Magic Academy, and I feel extremely satisfied when solving difficult problems and sharing my achievements.

It can't be that I'm actually a very superficial and boring guy, right?

I'm not traveling, I'm just escaping from one unpleasant place to another unpleasant place.

The so-called fun and curiosity are just tools to divert pain.

I am not studying magic, but enjoying the feeling of victory that I can do it and others can't, that I work hard and have talent while others can't.

The same is true for so-called scientific research. Am I just enjoying the pleasure of overthrowing authoritative mentors?

I am a person who must prove that I am better than others in order to live with peace of mind.

"I seem like a really bad guy."

Luo Qixi was silent.

Always escaping, always using the usual means to fill the empty heart, always trying to please yourself and maintain the motivation to move forward.

Things like helping someone, going somewhere, achieving certain results, and getting recognition are just fuel. Through such behaviors, one tries to act like a good person or a hero as much as possible to gain fuel for himself to survive normally.

So, what do I want?

“I want to be happy and content.”

"I want to be happy."

Yes, I escaped from my suffocating and lonely home because I was living a miserable life!

When Teacher Kander described her travel experiences, I saw an expression of satisfaction on her face that I had never seen before, and in her eyes I saw joy and happiness as vast as the starry sky.

So, I thought I wanted to travel.

When I managed to create a water ball for the first time, and when I released more and more powerful magic, I felt that I was in control of everything, I felt that I was special, and I felt a strong sense of security and being cared for.

So, I thought I liked magic.

Of course I like these, but these are hobbies or careers, right? Many people have similar things, even if it may just be drinking a glass of the cheapest ale in the pub after work, which I used to despise the most, the hobbies with no future and no breadth.

But it seems that they are equivalent.

They are all important pillars to support a living being to live a stable life.

There is no need to escape anymore.

There is no need to be both self-deprecating and conceited anymore.

There is no need to arm yourself with things that everyone thinks are powerful, and to hide, imprison and protect the most vulnerable, helpless children who have never grown up and are wearing Migrud robes.

I've grown up already.

Even if you are not strong enough, you can still move forward.

Luo Qixi knew what to do next.

"Fuck-"

The newly installed door still made a subtle sound when it opened, and a familiar childish voice interrupted Luo Qixi's moment of enlightenment:

"Don't cry, I have something to talk to you about."

Luo Qixi frantically wiped away the big tears that had flowed down her face, and cursed angrily:

"Idiot! Don't you know to knock before entering someone else's room?!"

Gao Wen closed the door and thought:

"I see. This is the first time I've heard of it."

Luo Qixi wiped away her tears and smiled helplessly:

"There's really nothing I can do about you."

Having learned a little knowledge, Gawain continued to ask:

"Teacher Roxy, if you are a demon, you must be able to read and write Demon Language, right? Please teach me everything."

After agreeing, Lokixi learned that Gawain had actually learned the human language, the fighting god language, and the beast god language. With the addition of the demon god language, he could basically deal with all situations on land. He was quite amazing.

In short, the night class unfolded in a form and with content that Luo Qixi had not expected.

Since neither Sylphiet nor Rudeus planned to learn another language for the time being, it was just the two of them for now.

The next night.

Gawain knocked on the door and pushed it open without waiting for permission, but was scolded by Lokisi who was changing clothes.

P.S. I will post this story after the third update to celebrate the long holiday.

Note: Roxy's awakening storyline is almost complete, and the rest of the storyline is just about consolidating the changes and correcting some minor details. That's pretty much my take on the original Roxy, right?

In my opinion, the side story is about the process of Roxy going to extremes and self-destruction.

This chapter is about the process of Roxy slowly being redeemed.

However, Roxy's transformation in this story is too slow, and there is not much interaction between the characters. It is basically all about her dwelling on her own. It can only be said that the direction of her dwelling is not as bad as before.

Then came the much-criticized trifecta of "dedication", "interference" and "I am a concubine". Her inferiority complex should have been cured after marriage, but God knows how many years it took her to come to terms with it.

If it weren't for Lala's special nature, one could have fast-forwarded to Aisha II, the spiritual sequel to Maid Sister, the Concubine's Daughter.

Chapter 23 Birthday (1)

[Gawain's perspective]

January 15, 411 in the Jialong calendar.

An ordinary day.

According to the micro-intelligent brain implanted in the center of his left and right brain, whose full name is [Vitrum Empire Emperor Training System], he woke up on time at 6:00:00 in the morning again, and his sleep time was still one hour and thirty minutes.
