Chapter 477: Chapter 253: Occasional Lingering Thoughts (Part 2)

"I don’t hate cooking for everyone, really, especially when I get to cook for my brother. Being praised by my brother, of course I’d be willing. It’s just, just..."

With tears forming in her eyes, she quickly said, "It’s just that what you do for them, I want you to do for me too."

"Those things you do for them..."

"I have very keen hearing, I can hear some things, and you didn’t even try to hide it just now."

Ah, Li Ang suddenly realized he was becoming increasingly reckless; indeed, he had just cuddled a cat and then went off to admire flowers and tease sparrows.

"I am a Paladin, I should always be just and kind, that’s how my brother sees me, right?" ALulu suddenly spoke about something she seemed uninterested in.

"But I think, sometimes I might not be the Paladin my teacher wants me to be," ALulu pressed her hand against her chest, stirring up a violent turmoil, "In here, there’s a devil, a beast, it wants to replace me when I’m unhappy, smashing everything to pieces."

"Actually, this is my true nature, I fantasize about tying my brother up and hiding him, doing whatever I want."

Li Ang was momentarily taken aback.

Although still shaken by ALulu revealing her inner thoughts, he recovered relatively quickly because those others aren’t much better either. If ALulu were the first to say such things, he would have been shocked for longer.

But the fact that he thinks this way indicates he is becoming less human.

"Your teacher..."

"The teacher hopes I can use the practice of a Paladin to transform my nature into the power of a Paladin."

ALulu pressed her hand against her chest, "But, sometimes, they still come out."

Power God Bloodline...

It brought with it brute force, and it once made ALulu lose control in battle.

Previously, she lost her senses in battle mainly because of not getting enough food, leading to her spirituality not developing fully.

But looking at it from a different perspective, this is like being drunk, still reflecting a certain deep inner truth.

Sometimes, people believe too much in their subjective power, yet spend their lives unable to escape the influence brought by their bodies.

People born with great strength might unconsciously tend towards reckless behavior, while those born weak might be a little timid, preferring to use wisdom or intrigue to handle matters.

Indeed, with her divine power, her nature might fit more with someone like Balbanus, or at least like her mother Cassandra, to "fit the picture."

Perhaps Baal hopes ALulu would not be controlled by this nature. But Li Ang always felt that the Star Soul had misunderstandings about many things, even Baal, who has the most experience and knowledge among the Star Souls he has met.

In simple terms, ALulu understands her own nature

"You don’t need to hide anything in front of me, you can say anything that’s on your mind." Li Ang smiled.

They have already had some intimate contact, yet revealing more of their hearts has to come later; what kind of group am I leading here? Li Ang chastised himself inwardly, though the intensity of the reprimand was questionable.

ALulu glanced at the young girls in the distance.

The evening glow painted the treetops and lake surface; Zoe and Andasu’s race was nearing its end. Although both had great strength, sprinting was different from regular swimming, and they were both at the point of exhausting their stamina.

In terms of distance, the White Wolf couldn’t win anymore, but she didn’t relax, keeping her high speed as if the real failure would be letting Zoe feel her victory was too easy.

Zoe was already trying her best to use Water Element Affinity for assistance, but reaching a higher level required taking on her Ice Wolf form, which would increase resistance like Andasu, so she could only push forward with all her human strength.

Li Ang and ALulu both turned their gaze back, and he softly asked, "Afraid of arguing with them?"

"Yes, I don’t want to quarrel with them, I, I can’t..."

Li Ang understood what she meant; she couldn’t be as sharp-tongued as Dorothy, or as indifferent as Zoe, or as obsessive as Andasu. She knew well, but had her own little thoughts.

"So, from now on, whenever emotions rise, let’s share whispering secrets together."

ALulu’s expression relaxed, but she still had more to say.

"Is there, could there be more?"

Could it... be?

She pinched her fingers, "What you did with them, you have to do with me too, then I’ll definitely be well-behaved."

In truth, it shows her violent nature was suppressed in her upbringing, but it also needs a reasonable outlet. Yet, perhaps due to Li Ang and the others’ recklessness, the direction became unfavorable.

"Okay, I promise you."

There was already a precedent, so I won’t pretend to be a gentleman anymore. Li Ang thought.

"Then, that’s it for now."

ALulu closed her eyes, raised her chin slightly, and her lips pressed together with some tension.

Li Ang adjusted the chair to conceal her from others’ view and then cupped her soft, cream-like face to respond.

The sourness carried a slight bitterness, much like the complex thoughts of this young girl.

Upon first meeting her, it was never thought she would be the most complex inside.

At first glance, you might think a city hall’s former administrative noble young lady or a biker navigating treacherous rogues would have deeper schemes, but after unlocking their shackles, they never hid their thoughts anymore.

Only the child in front, the shackles are in her heart, and it’s something named justice.
