Demi-human Girls Completion Manual Chapter 1630 - 108: Loving You (2)
Previously on Demi-human Girls Completion Manual...
Perhaps, back then, if the letter meant for Elizabeth hadn’t been hesitantly modified and kept by Fisher, if he had explained everything to her sooner, would things have ended differently?
Is he going to choose to escape like he did in the past?
With these thoughts, Fisher’s pupils narrowed slightly, and his footsteps suddenly halted.
His lips trembled slightly, and his fists unconsciously clenched tighter. He suddenly opened his mouth,
"Helair."
"What’s the matter, dear?"
Fisher sighed and turned his head to look at Helair behind the table, who was gazing at him questioningly. Sensing Fisher’s need to speak, Helair quieted down, waiting for him to continue.
"I... sometimes feel I can’t see through you, like you’re shrouded in a thick fog. I can’t discern what lies within—whether it’s a sweet cake or a sharp dagger. Ultimately, it’s because I don’t actually understand you at all."
He retraced his steps back to the table, but did not sit down, and continued,
"I know you love seeking interesting things, trying out new experiences beyond forging that Angels haven’t tasted before, and that you love music. But beyond that, I seem to know nothing about your thoughts, as if I’m still just a normal Human, and you’re the distant Angel, unreachable. Honestly, all this time I’ve been with you, there’s always been a sense of unease within me—a fear of the unknown...
"This sometimes makes me hold grudges, especially when you do things without telling me, leaving me feeling distanced from you, at odds with everything you say. But I’m not saying this because I want you to bare your soul to me and soothe my fragile ego. I don’t want to pull you down from your elevated place and into the dirt because I know I’ve made you wait for me for ten thousand years, watched as I protected other women...
"I just... don’t want our relationship to end up like this."
Helair was slightly taken aback, possibly wanting to say something, but eventually it turned into a simple gesture. She gently extended her hand toward Fisher, lifting his hanging hand to clasp it,
"Actually, you’re still somewhat resentful of me, aren’t you?"
"...No."
"Is that true or false?"
"...Alright, actually, there is a little."
Helair squeezed his fingers, and now it was Fisher’s turn to ask,
"Then, do you have any resentment toward me?"
"Yes." Helair’s answer was quick, and her following question was just as fast, "Guess, is that true or false?"
"True."
"It’s false~"
Fisher raised his eyes to look at her, only to see her maintaining a smiling and very earnest expression, saying,
"I never resent any soul."
This surely includes Fisher and the women he knows, right?
Fisher doesn’t know the extent of the difference between Angelic and Human perspectives, but judging by Michael, Gabriel, and other Angel Leaders, it seems quite vast.
But at least at this moment, as Fisher held Helair’s cool hand, he felt Helair’s heart was quite close to his own.
Yet as the conversation ended, Helair shifted the topic,
"However, you saying you don’t understand me at all does make me a bit sad... Or does it mean, you just understand my body, but as for my heart..."
Ah no, that’s impossible, though Fisher’s previous choice of studies was "biological research progress," it doesn’t mean... Alright, actually he does understand, at least physically.
Fisher sighed gently, slowly withdrew his hand from hers, then raised it to adjust the crooked crown on her head, which was also a gift from him,
"Maybe not quite understanding, but I’ve always felt you’re not trying to hurt me, so I took seriously those clues you just gave me. But from my heart, I want not only your trust, but your entirety, so I want to know you more... It’s just, not now, I must make haste to resolve the Chaos and Doomsday Prophecy."
"..."
Helair smiled sweetly at him, watching him straighten the crown on her head, then reaching out to him again, saying,
"After all this is over, let me get to know you more, will you?"
"Sure, I’ll be waiting for you, dear."
Helair gently held Fisher’s hand, seemingly relaxing, warmed by Fisher’s body heat, alleviating that icy coolness.
At this moment, Fisher also shared all the thoughts within his heart with her, so as not to wait a long time and succumb to another regret.
For now, she couldn’t leave the Demon Dynasty, and Fisher also should set out to leave the South Continent, returning to his hometown Nali.
But before that, he lingered here for a while longer; after all, he still had two days left before departing when he came to the Demon Dynasty.
Spent half a day with Elliog, and here, he planned to spend the remaining time.
Helair made him a unique dessert, as they enjoyed the treats and exchanged talks about other things, including matters she hadn’t spoken of over ten thousand years and some trivial anecdotes.
