In the Holy Land at this mont, listening to the voice of Tangze Asuka filled with both tears and laughter coming from over there, Fisher silently and unconsciously distanced his face a bit from the position of the Cardinal.
For a mont, he was a bit stunned, and his eyes, which hadn’t blinked in a long ti, showed so inexplicable glimr.
He just felt that perhaps at this mont, Tangze Asuka, who finally mustered the courage, didn’t know how heavy the oath she made was; she also didn’t know from what ti Fisher traveled back to here.
Perhaps even Fisher himself couldn’t determine, he could only give a vague general range.
He estimated a minimum of eight thousand years, perhaps even longer, nine thousand years, or maybe...
Ten thousand years.
It must be known, even Fisher himself is only thirty years old now, so to the impoverished lifespan perspective and imagination of humans, such a ti scale is too lengthy, blurred to the extent of having no corresponding concept.
If Tangze Asuka is already ten thousand years old in the era Fisher lives, there wouldn’t be anyone with a specific concept, they would only think that must be a long ti.
But if it’s said that Tangze Asuka is a hundred years old, what erges in your mind must be an old, trembling person, toothless, with a face full of wrinkles.
And at that ti, Tangze Asuka has already lived through a hundred lives of such old trembling persons...
Hence at this mont, Fisher is contemplating, is this an oath for Tangze Asuka, or a curse?
Just because he casually agrees to her statent of "the road eting again in the future," saying "Okay," then pats his butt and leaves, thus letting her foolishly and one-sidedly wait here for ten thousand years...
It’s not a worry about her possibly dying of old age, because Fisher learned from Erwin that the Cardinal of Destiny, the first generation of Transferee, has been impersonating the Magic Minister since long ago, and the Transferred People seem to have so thod or trait to live very long lives, even never dying of old age.
Therefore, what concerns Fisher now is rely that cage nad "long years," he doesn’t want to let the other’s innocence and fervor establish such a cruel promise she is unaware of.
After hesitating repeatedly, even such a greedy Fisher is sowhat restrained at this mont, he slowly approached the Cardinal waiting for his response over there, softly spoke to Tangze Asuka,
"...Asuka, promise , no matter what, find the road ho, even if after pursuing the answer, our roads have still not t."
"Ah? Why... is it because... because of Helair Angel? So... Mr. Fischer refuses ..."
It turns out, Tangze Asuka considered Fisher’s advice as a sort of refusal, so at this mont her originally tearful words sounded even more dejected.
Fisher suddenly thought, how he wished he were such a devoted man.
Unfortunately, he was self-aware, he was not.
Thus, he shook his head, explained to Tangze Asuka,
"No, Asuka. Because you don’t know when our roads will et again. If it’s a year, ten years, perhaps you can endure it, but what if it’s a hundred years, a thousand years, or ten thousand years?
"Asuka, I don’t want the precious feelings between us as teacher and student to beco a curse; I genuinely hope you can find liberation and beco better and better. I swear, I will do everything to find you, even if eventually what I find is your departure from this world, I will be at peace..."
There was a pause over there, then, her soft and sticky voice ca again,
"...So Mr. Fischer didn’t refuse , right?"
Fisher helplessly chuckled, how could he not discern that the pause in her words was actually a joke? He just called out her na again, trying to pull the topic back,
"Asuka..."
"Alright, alright, I know, Mr. Fischer..."
Over there, Fisher heard her laughter through tears, then she took a deep breath and said,
"I promise you, Mr. Fischer, I will take care of myself, and during this ti, I will also try to find other ways to go ho. If... I an, if, there really is a day when I find the road ho before our roads et. Then, I will follow Mr. Fischer’s advice and go ho... Oh, by the way, why did Mr. Fischer suddenly start calling my... na, I wasn’t prepared..."
"...Because earlier I noticed when Margaret called your na, you seed a bit shy, I guessed, your naming habit over there might be similar to that of the Kado People, only those close to each other would call nas... Margaret failed you in calling your na, at least I as a substitute..."
"Not a substitute."
Before Fisher finished speaking, Tangze Asuka’s little murmuring voice ca from over there.
Though her voice was so small, in Fisher’s ears it was crystal clear. He guessed Tangze Asuka should be very close to the Cardinal, therefore creating such an effect.
And in fact, just as he guessed, Tangze Asuka was now pressing her little half face against the Cardinal, only stained with a blush of warmth from the charming, pink that spread from her cheeks to the roots of her ears.
