Chapter 1105
Shigure Kira is also well-suited for singing on the battlefield.
Because her singing voice, which is enough to make the great Herrscher of Sentience go crazy and break her defenses, could probably really sing an enemy to death.
If it were anyone else, Eden would have long since bluntly advised, "Miss, you'd better find another path," but who let Shigure Kira be a girl introduced by Bai Mou?
Plus...
Her incredibly burning longing for herself/ideals.
Made Eden truly unable to bring herself to strike her down.
So she kept training with Shigure Kira, and although the results were minimal, she still tried various ways to treat her fatal "tone-deafness" problem.
... Half an hour later...
"Kira... let's... rest for a while."
"No need, Teacher Eden, I can do one more song!"
"Is, is that so..."
Eden smiled bitterly and used Honkai energy to reinforce her eardrums, thinking to herself, *You don't need to rest, but I do! *
【Shigure Kira's Solo Concert】 is no joke; I'm afraid no one in this world could stand and listen to the whole thing.
"But I'm really so grateful to Teacher Eden. I never dreamed that one day I could sing on such a gorgeous stage, as if I had truly become a world-class idol."
Shigure Kira looked around with longing.
The grand theater built of gold, the bright red petals falling every moment, and the constantly echoing hymns—except for the fact that there was only one audience member/victim, it was thousands of times more gorgeous than the stage she had fantasized about in her mind.
"I'm happy to hear you say that. This is a stage Bai gave to me. He hopes that one day I can debut on this stage again and continue to shine in this era."
Eden wore a sweet expression, her jade hand gently stroking the piano that came with the golden theater, and said very cherishably.
"Guwu, it's that guy again..."
Shigure Kira immediately showed a complicated expression, pouting her cute little mouth, suddenly losing interest.
"Oh my, it seems Kira really hates Bai."
"Because that person not only took away Lady Cecilia, but even you, Teacher Eden... in short, I hate him the most."
Having rarely met two people she longed for,
Shigure Kira was like a defeated younger sister who watched helplessly as her two dear big sisters were ruined by the same scumbag, yet she couldn't do anything about it.
Eden touched Shigure Kira's head with a wry smile.
"But Bai is a very good person, uh no, in my heart, there is no one better than him in this world."
"... Lady Cecilia said the same thing."
"But besides that, Bai is also a very pitiful person."
"Eh?"
Shigure Kira was stunned for a moment, looking at Eden in disbelief.
"You must be joking. That guy is so powerful, his strength is so strong, his singing is so good, and so many people like you like him, how is he pitiful?"
"Kira, that's because Bai always only shows his calm side, hiding his fragile appearance. Recall what he was like in your memory."
"Uh, he is always smiling..."
"Yes, so have you ever seen Bai angry? Have you ever seen him sad? Have you ever seen him desperate? And what about his painful, crying, or crazy appearance?"
"............"
Shigure Kira shook her head blankly. Let alone seen it, she found that she couldn't even imagine it.
(How is it possible? That person would be desperate? Would be sad? Would cry? He actually has that side too? I don't believe it!)
"Teacher Eden, have you seen it?"
"Yes, I have seen it. In fact, I have forgotten those sides of Bai several times, but in the end, I remembered them. Many people are deceived by Bai's appearance. Although he possesses incomparably powerful strength, Bai's heart is actually very fragile."
Eden sighed as she spoke, showing a look of heartache.
"How is this possible!!"
Shigure Kira shouted instinctively.
It had been a few days since she visited the Elysian Realm. Thanks to the active promotion of a certain pink fairy lady, everyone in the Snow Wolf Squad had learned many things about Bai Ge.
The key was that Elysia gave each of them a copy of "The Great Adventure of the White Boy in the Previous Civilization."
She wrote what Bai Ge did in the previous civilization into a novel. By the way, the signature was 'The Girl as Gorgeous as Flying Flowers.'
Elysia: "I want more people to know Bai Bai!"
In order to find Bai Ge's weakness, Shigure Kira stayed up all night reading that book, and then... she regretted it.
After being unable to control her eyes and reading the whole book word for word, the girl regretted opening this book very much.
Because it was a heroic tale beyond imagination, a story that was too tragic, tortuous, heavy, and yet dazzlingly beautiful.
Since finishing it, Shigure Kira no longer lost her temper at Bai Ge to his face, and there was a bit more respect in her eyes.
However, now that Eden said the white boy's heart was fragile, Shigure Kira felt she couldn't agree.
A man who has saved the world more than a dozen times and even traveled through time and space for the girl he loves.
How could he be a person with a fragile heart?!
"Yes, most people who know his story would think so, but... Bai's essence is not like that."
Eden shook her head and said.
Because that white boy was too good at disguising himself, even among the Flame-Chasers, only a very small number of people saw through this.
And Eden, who is able to achieve soul resonance with Bai Mou through music, is one of them.
Just for this, the golden singer was extremely glad that she had embarked on the path of music, because music gave her the ability to understand Bai Ge more intuitively than anyone else.
"Just like what was written in that book Elysia wrote, Bai is always fighting against various enemies. When he was not as powerful as he is now, he was also covered in scars because of facing strong enemies."
"Fighting has become a daily routine for him, but even death couldn't make him stop, let alone being injured. Many people call Bai's posture of being covered in wounds but still standing up to fight 【Strong-Hearted】."
"But this is a huge mistake."
Eden said decisively. At this moment, the hymns of the Golden Theater stopped, and the petals stopped falling, as if mourning for something.
Shigure Kira trembled all over, her heartbeat skipped a beat and then accelerated uncontrollably. She instinctively sensed that she seemed to have touched something very important.
Eden sighed deeply and recalled the past.
She once thought that Bai Ge's essence was "fighting to protect all beauty," or like Elysia, "loving the world and humanity equally."
But with a deeper understanding of the boy, Eden discovered that these were all wrong fallacies.
Bai Ge's essence is—choosing to sacrifice himself to protect important things.
He cannot watch tragedies happen before his eyes and remain indifferent. If he doesn't know, that's fine, but once he knows, this boy who possesses the authority to change fate cannot help but do something.
In Bai Ge's own words—if he leaves it alone, he will feel uncomfortable in his heart, and it will make his mood worse.
So the white boy carried the tragedy of an entire era, at the cost of his own memories, body, and heart being covered in scars, remembering all the sadness and pain, and then changing it into a beautiful ending time and time again.
Describing him as gentle is too tragic.
Describing him as strong is too poignant.
This will to protect something even if he gets hurt himself makes Eden feel breathless just thinking about it.
Using his own blood and wounds, and even death, as bargaining chips to overturn all the regrettable tragedies—this is the essence of the white boy.
Therefore, Bai Ge is not a strong-hearted person.
After all, if he were truly strong-hearted, he should be able to endure these tragedies.
Roaring in anger at the tragedy happening before his eyes, turning it into the motivation to become stronger, and then moving forward—this is something even Kevin can do.
But Bai Ge will not choose to move forward; instead, he will choose to step back. He stubbornly goes to change and salvage it... no matter how high a price he himself needs to pay.
That heart that cannot endure tragedy, in Eden's view, is perhaps more fragile than glass, but Bai Ge's will is tougher than any steel, unyielding and unbreakable.
He is so stubborn, paranoid, and refuses to admit defeat, even if he hits a brick wall, he won't turn back, always staring at fate with a fierce look, just like a dead child who never grows up.
Because adults who have grown up will compromise with reality.
But a dead child never will.
"Actually, my Bai never wanted to be a savior who saves the world. What he wanted... was just to live happily with us, and with the people he cherishes, forever."
Eden drank the wine in her glass in one gulp, and a flush of red immediately appeared on that stunning face.
"And that is exactly why we like him so much. Not because he is a savior, but because he is Bai Ge."
"So I won't give up either, no matter how hard Elysia is to compete with. After all... my dream is to stand on this stage with Bai, pursuing art, music, and applause."
Shigure Kira looked at Eden blankly. She didn't know what else to say.
She had learned the essence of the white boy.
But this was perhaps not something she should have learned.
Because Shigure Kira was not Bai Ge's lover, but a girl who hated him. ===== CHAPTER 1106 =====
