Absolute Choice

Chapter 457: The Conversation of Fate (5/6)



Why were his eyes clearly black, yet looked as bright as the stars?

Why were his eyes filled with unprecedented brightness despite knowing more than anyone about the twisted nature of good and evil as well as the darkness of human nature?

That was because he believed that he was not a sorrowful human, but a ‘King of kings’, who could change the laws of good and evil!

He firmly believed in the light that he looked forward to, so he faced the darkness in front of him straight on!

She had failed to do so, so she chose to let her back face the darkness. But by doing so, her back was also facing the light that was covered by darkness.

But in truth, what she looked forward to was light as well!

“Badump! Badump! Badump!”

Dawn seemed to hear her own heart beat. Her heartbeat was beating more rapidly and energetically than it ever did before. It was brimming with vitality.

A warm, red glow gradually suffused from her cheeks.

For the first time, she felt that her distance from Shi Xiaobai was too close.

To be looked at him at such a close distance could result in such nervousness?

Ah, how was she able to hug him without any reservations previously? What happened a moment ago was her first hug with a person of the opposite sex, but she did not find it problematic. But why did she feel as if her heart was being scratched when she now recalled it?

Too close, it’s really too close, but I have no intentions of pushing him away.

But it was also the first time that she felt that she was too close to Shi Xiaobai. To him, she was a figure from three thousand years ago, or she could very well be a fake existence replicated by the assessment program. To her, where he came from, which era he lived in, or whether he was the Infernal King or a trial-taker were things she did not know.

They might not be people from the same era, and could also be people from different worlds, to the point of one of them being fake, an existence that could be destroyed at any time.

Time, dimension, reality were the three biggest obstacles that separated them.

But she felt like they were too close.

Dawn could not help but feel a sense of sorrow as she slowly lowered her head before she suddenly looked back up!

It was too far, so there was an even greater need to cherish the time when she could see his appearance and hear his voice.

What should I say? I can’t waste the time in silence.

That story should be fake. He might not be human, but he definitely can’t be the King of kings that created good and evil.

But what effect would the story’s authenticity bring?

No, even if the story was faked, it would not lead to anything.

That was because he believed that whatever he said was true. He believed that the light he saw existed. He believed it, so no one could question it. It would be useless no matter who questioned him!

And she…

…believed in his belief!

“Work hard and you will definitely find it. No, you will definitely find the true answer! You will definitely be able to change the laws of good and evil into a truth that human nature is unable to distort! When you sit back on that sealed throne, I’ll stand by your side. If possible, i want to stay by your side, to the ends of your ideals.”

At that moment, the girl who was always expressionless beamed the purest of smiles. It was inexplicably beautiful, like cherry blossoms in spring.

Shi Xiaobai was stunned seeing this.

For some reason, he suddenly recalled what a similarly beautiful purple-haired girl said to him.

“Shi Xiaobai, although in the eyes of others, you who call yourself ‘This King’ might sound silly, but to me, you are very cute!”

“I understand, Shi Xiaobai. I understand why you call yourself ‘This King’.”

“It is not because of hubris, nor is it because of narcissism, much less you indulging in fantasy!”

“You are doing so just to believe in yourself!”

“But in my eyes, you are not weak. You are stronger than anyone, so Shi Xiaobai, in the future when you are in front of me, address yourself as ‘I’, alright?”

Back then, he had only gotten to know the purple-haired girl for only an hour, but she understood him more than anyone else did. She understood him and even believed him.

And ever since she said those words, she became an extremely special existence in his heart. It could be said that in this alternate world, she was the most important existence to him.

The purple-haired girl’s name was Kali.

And at that very moment in time, the blond girl who disguised herself as a male had said “you will definitely find the true answer!”

“When you sit back on that sealed throne, I’ll stand by your side.”

“If possible, I want to stay by your side, to the ends of your ideals.”

At that moment, she resembled Kali, who once told him, “In my eyes, you are not weak. You are stronger than anyone”.

Similarly, he had only gotten to know her for only about an hour.

Some people might be partners for life, but they might never know what each other was thinking.

Some people might only know each other for an hour, but it felt like they had known each other for life.

To Shi Xiaobai, there was one more to the special existence of the latter.

Dawn naturally did not know what Shi Xiaobai was thinking, nor did she know that her truthful words from her heart dealt such a severe blow on the boy in front of her.

She felt that her heart was beating faster as her face turned hotter. A baffling impulse seemed to grow in intensity.

He was looking at her.

His eyes were focusing on her without looking away.

Previously, she did not feel anything when she locked eyes with him in this manner, but now, while being focused by him at such close proximity, to the point of her figure reflecting in his eyes, she felt there was something restless in her chest. It made her short of breath.

Her mind began sprouting strange thoughts.

So is that how I look in his eyes?

Ah, short male hair is indeed too short. If it’s slightly longer, it would be better. Will he like short-haired girls? Or does he prefer long flowing hair?

With me using a special makeup technique to masculinize my neutral facial features, I look more like a boy to him, right?

Hey, Shi Xiaobai, I’m actually a girl. Although I wrapped my chest to be as flat as a boy’s, but actually…actually, I’m developing normally.

The next time…the next time we meet, I want to let you see me wear a dress for the first time.

Yes, I want to let you see how I look like as a girl.

The next time we meet.

The next time…is there still a chance of meeting again?

Time seemed to slowly pass while their eyes locked in silence.

Perhaps it was because the boy and girl looked too glaring in each other’s eyes, or perhaps it was the constantly effusing thoughts that made them forget, or perhaps it was the natural instinct of attraction between man and woman, the two heads that were less than half a meter apart began to rapidly close the distance without them realizing it.

Forty centimeters.

Thirty centimeters.

Twenty centimeters.

Ten centimeters.

Five centimeters.

The boy’s head and the girl’s head grew closer. The soft lips also naturally approached each other.

Three centimeters.

Two centimeters.

One centimeter…

Time seemed to come to a halt. The air seemed to turn into an ambiguous pink. The boy and girl’s lips would touch each other gently at the next moment. It was a mutual attraction, but an instant that they did not notice as they came into contact with each other’s warmth.

“Roar!”
