Chapter 373 - 19: Christina (3)
Sleepless night.
All night long, Andrew had been tossing and turning. When he looked in the mirror in the morning, the first thing he noticed was two black eye circles staring back at him.
It must be said, that secret technique is really something—it even brought out the black circles. He couldn’t tell whether he should feel happy or depressed about it.
"Never mind, I was already ugly. Two more black circles just make me uglier."
"I offended the White Bone Holy Light Court due to a misjudgment, and regretting that now would serve no purpose. That much, I can understand. But why on earth am I stirring up trouble with a gold dragon now?"
"Can green dragons and elves be together?"
"Goodness, I’m already beginning to entertain questions like this..."
Andrew felt somewhat lost.
No, "lost" didn’t quite capture it—it was more like conflicted. Very conflicted and entangled. He couldn’t even figure out his own intentions anymore, something that had never occurred once in the past two hundred years of his existence.
"Listen, Andrew, this is a dead-end road. You’ll gain nothing from it, and there’s a high chance you’ll lose your life. Why pursue something so fruitless? This isn’t your style. What you should do is go to Christina’s room immediately, meet her, admit you’re a bastard, confess everything, and then quietly slip away. Or maybe phrase it more gently, to avoid provoking her anger. On your way out, it’d be wise to find that gold dragon and offer a sincere apology. Yes, that would be the most satisfactory conclusion."
Standing before the mirror, Andrew silently psycheed himself up, widening his eyes.
"Alright, let’s do this!"
