Chapter 1232
——"Now, do you hate me?"
She was clean, neat, beautiful and strong, wearing brand new leather armor, ruby earrings that dazzled her eyes, and she smelled of food and wine.
Looking back at myself, I saw blood and scars, both old and new, and my arm, which had been broken but not corrected, had been healed with healing potion...
Yu Xunge looked at her with his only remaining eye, his eyes reddened as he gritted his teeth and said, "I hate you to the bone!"
"I like that answer." Zhuri was pleased with the answer, and she bent down until her eyes were at the same level as the little oak owl's.
A month ago, this cub looked like a lost kitten or puppy.
But now, she is like a wolf cub that has learned to hunt and has the ability to survive on its own.
The elf looked directly into the eyes of the little oak owl and said word by word:
"Anger and hatred don't need qualifications; they are meaningful. Don't fool yourself with seemingly sober but actually ridiculous rationales."
Yu Xunge nodded, and just as she opened her mouth to speak, she found herself choking. She closed her mouth, trembling and swallowing down this inexplicable emotion. Only after she calmed down completely did she ask, "But you said to let go of your emotions."
The elf choked for a rare moment. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and raised an eyebrow. "What I meant was that when you encounter a problem, it's best to put it aside temporarily and focus on solving it. Don't let it affect your judgment, but I didn't ask you to ignore it intentionally."
Yu Xunge said solemnly: "I remember it!"
Zhuri added, "The most important thing is not to try to rely on anything. All the pain and despair you suffered in the arena was because you tried to rely on me. This is my punishment for you. I hope it is deep enough."
Yu Xunge nodded again, and there seemed to be a flame burning in her only remaining eye. She said, "I remember."
Zhuri glanced at the soul fire that appeared above the other person's head, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
She straightened up and looked down at the little oak owl. "I'll give you a chance to change your mind. Are you still willing to be my apprentice? If not, I will send you back to Karadom."
"Yes! I do!"
"Then from today on, you will be my apprentice, Sun Chaser. Now, you can tell me your name."
"My name is Xun Ge."
"Zhu Ri Xun Ge, ha, you are destined to be my apprentice."
……
Zhuri used one skill to heal all the scars and injuries on Yu Xunge's body.
This reduced much of the cub's despair, rage, and anxiety.
She took Yu Xunge to take a bath in the hotel and gave her a new set of clothes, which was a warm yellow cloth armor with a cute duck pattern on it.
Yu Xunge caressed the new clothes on her body lovingly, which made her look like a child, rather than a warrior in the arena who lived every minute as if it were her last.
Zhuri asked her to sit down, took out a dagger, and quickly and neatly trimmed the little oak owl's hair, which she had cut short herself to facilitate fighting. The latter instantly became refreshed and cute.
It was much more pleasing to the eye. Zhuri patted the little oak owl's head with satisfaction and threw the dagger he had just used to cut his hair over to him: "A gift for an apprentice."
Yu Xunge happily took the new azure dagger and said, "Thank you, teacher."
The blade of the original dagger had long been bent, but Yu Xunge did not throw it away. She moved the old dagger to the weapon loop on the left side of the assassin's belt and hung the new dagger on the right side, where it was most convenient to attack.
She tried to draw and retract the blade several times, enjoying it endlessly, as if she had found a game that she would never get tired of.
Zhuri crossed his legs and watched his only apprentice performing eight hundred fake moves.
She tapped the table with her fingers and said, "You looked like you had something to say since you came out of the arena. Go ahead! You know I don't have much patience."
Yu Xunge sat down opposite, cleared her throat, and asked without any hesitation:
"Since you think that I was wrong not to hate you before, then Fat Goose should be more to your liking. Why did you choose me? I don't think our respective choices can influence or even determine your final choice."
