Chapter 49 I Choose to Say Goodbye to the Fireflies.
After the victory in battle.
Little Gray looked at the empty battlefield and murmured, "The Star Core Hunter... is gone."
Mimi floated onto her shoulder and softly called out:
"Disappeared, temporarily."
"Memory exists...ever."
Little Gray Fur frowned and hurriedly said:
"Wait a minute..."
Mimi tilted her head and gently wiggled her little paws:
"Farewell. There's still time."
"My friend, it's a pity... I can't keep you."
Guided by Mimi, Little Gray turned his head to look at the other side of the carriage.
There were two other people standing there, Kafka and Firefly.
She stared blankly at the two figures.
She gazed into the distance and softly asked herself:
"Kafka... and Ryuki. Who should I say goodbye to...?"
...
Little Gray thought for a moment, then lifted his foot and ran towards the direction of the firefly.
Liu Ying turned her head, looking at the girl with a questioning gaze, a gentle smile in her eyes:
"Ah... Xing, it's you."
"The script is finished smoothly again, right?"
"Having you by our side always makes us feel at ease."
Looking at the complicated expression on Little Gray's face, Liu Ying was slightly taken aback: "What's wrong?"
"I've never seen you with that expression before."
The little gray-haired creature's eyes drooped, its tone full of confusion:
"I can't remember anything..."
Liu Ying's smile faltered slightly, and she asked softly:
"What...does this mean?"
Her worried eyes stared silently at the little gray-haired boy.
After a long while, she lowered her head and asked, somewhat at a loss:
"What happened?"
"I...I don't know if I should ask you this."
"I just... wanted to express some concern, concern for my companions."
Little Gray looked at Firefly, his eyes darting around:
"It seems like we traveled together..."
Liu Ying was silent for a moment, a trace of sadness appearing on her face, and softly replied, "Is that so..."
"Will this journey together also come to an abrupt end?"
But the next second, Firefly raised her head.
His face was full of composure, and even carried a gentle comforting tone for the little gray fur:
"But...it's okay."
"Now that you've appeared here, it proves that our paths will intersect again."
"If you are alive, I will live on too."
"The parting that has not yet come will not be the last."
Little Gray Fur looked at her and nodded gently: "We have indeed met again."
A smile returned to Liu Ying's face: "That's wonderful."
"I will try my best to forget this and seal it deep in my mind..."
"When the day comes that we part, I will take your words as a promise to reunite."
A hint of longing lingered in Liu Ying's eyes:
"When the day comes that we meet again, I think... I will pretend that we have never met before."
"Let's get to know each other again and start all over again."
"I will do my best to express my true feelings to you..."
"Because I can't do that right now."
Liu Ying's voice was soft, tinged with longing: "It's truly a day worth looking forward to."
"Two people—no longer accomplices, but simply two souls adrift in the galaxy—meet in an ordinary way, become acquainted in an ordinary way..."
"...That is the greatest luxury I can imagine."
Little Gray took a deep breath, his eyes gradually hardening:
"I should go now, Firefly."
Liu Ying looked at her, a knowing smile flashing in her eyes:
"Yes, this is the expression I know you have."
"You're leaving, aren't you?"
"Because you're going to do something important...you always understand what's most important."
Liu Ying waved her hand, her tone full of encouragement:
"Go quickly, Trail Blazers."
"It doesn't matter if I forget everything..."
"I will engrave the promise of our second encounter in my heart on your behalf."
Liu Ying closed her eyes, as if reminiscing about something, and whispered:
"I hope it will be a beautiful night with shooting stars."
…
…
"So that's why fireflies appear in Pinocchio..."
When the people on Douluo Continent heard the conversation between the two, they immediately thought of the plot that had been played on the screen before.
I also finally understood why, back in Pinocchio, Firefly was willing to die three times to do everything in her power to help Little Gray.
It turns out they had known each other for a long time.
They were not only partners fighting side by side, but also shared such a romantic promise.
Instantly, countless people with kind hearts on the Douluo Continent were deeply moved.
I feel that voting for Firefly was the most romantic choice I ever made.
This allowed the star-crossed lovers to reunite under the heavens.
The images on the celestial screen continued.
Little Gray Fur suddenly opened his eyes.
She found herself in the place where she had previously touched the power of Oronis.
Standing beside him were Dan Heng, Bai E, and Xia Die, all three of them with faces full of worry and incomprehension.
Little Gray Fur looked at everyone, rubbing his still somewhat heavy head, and said softly:
"What a long memory, it feels like a lifetime ago."
Dan Heng frowned and quickly asked, "Long? What are you talking about?"
"You were just here, and you didn't respond no matter how much we called out to you."
This situation lasted for less than a minute, and then—Danheng's gaze fell on Mimi, the pink elf who was standing with her hands on her hips next to the little gray-haired boy's shoulder, and he continued:
"And then this creature appeared."
Bai'er looked at Mimi, this little guy who was neither dog nor fox, and asked with a puzzled expression:
"What a peculiar animal! It must be an animal, right? I've never seen one before."
Xia Die looked at Mimi, and a faint smile appeared on her blank face:
"Cute little fellow, is it a gift from Euronis?"
Little Grey turned to look at Dan Heng and said with certainty, "I was glanced at by Fu Li."
Dan Heng looked puzzled: "Fu Li? Just now?"
Bai E put one hand on his hip and asked, "Fu Li? What's that?"
Dan Heng slowly explained from the side:
"On the way to Ohm, I talked to you about the 'Star Gods' from beyond the heavens—Fuli is one of them, in charge of the fate of 'memory'."
After listening, Bai'er nodded thoughtfully: "Ah... 'miracles of gods from beyond the heavens, miracles too great for the naked eye to behold'... is that right?"
"To receive a glimpse from the Star God, does that mean..."
Little Gray nodded and continued, "Mimi said it can help us."
...!
With her hands on her hips and a confident look on her face, Mimi called out in her sweet, childish voice:
"Titan, the past...the mist."
"Collection. The past...reappearance."
Little Gray nodded in agreement, adding, "We need to bring the past back to life."
Bai E looked on in surprise.
Mimi was nearby, only making "mimi mi" sounds, which no one else could understand.
Only the little gray fur seemed to be able to communicate with it without any problems, and Bai E couldn't help but ask:
"Can you understand what it's saying?"
"Collecting memories, reliving the past... How do we do that? We don't have much time left."
After all, Wan Di is still fighting Nicardoli, and who knows how many times he has died.
After listening, Mimi chirped a few times in a light and cheerful voice, as if to reassure everyone:
"Don't rush, no need! I know how. I'll teach you."
Little Gray nodded and said to everyone, "Mimi will teach us what to do."
After listening, Dan Heng crossed his arms and spoke solemnly:
"If it is truly a creation of Fuli, or has some connection with that star god, I'm willing to believe it can wield power even greater than the 'Miracle of Euronis.'"
Knowing that this power was related to the Star God, Dan Heng was filled with trust.
So he called out to the crowd, "Let's go, let's follow it."
Just as Little Gray Hair and his friends were about to turn and leave.
Suddenly, Xia Die turned her head, looked up at the phantom of the Titan of Time in the sky, and spoke softly:
"Olonis, are you asleep?"
Eulonis's whisper slowly echoed in everyone's ears.
Xia Die frowned slightly and said softly, "I don't know who this 'mother' you're talking about is, but..."
But the next second, a gentle smile spread across her face, and she said with heartfelt blessings:
"Thank you for all your hard work. If you dream... I hope your dreams are sweet."
