Chapter 42 - Chapter 42: Aren't We Best Friends?

The three of them were lying on the lawn together right now, leisurely enjoying this quiet night... at least, that's how it appeared on the surface.

Fei Xiao had returned after making her call, continuing to face this awkward situation.

However, neither of the two asked anything.

As a result, the originally harmonious atmosphere had now become somewhat quiet, as if it were the calm before a storm.

Lin Siyu and Meng Xi ultimately decided not to get to the bottom of it.

They were satisfied just being good sisters with Fei Xiao as they had been before.

If the other party didn't want to bring it up, then they wouldn't ask.

And Fei Xiao could feel that the two of them had likely already made some conjectures.

She was also pondering in her heart that perhaps it wouldn't be unacceptable to just confess her past to them directly.

With my current strength, I should be enough to go head-to-head with certain legendary Pokémon.

In this world, I could probably walk sideways.

If I followed the thoughts I had when I first transmigrated here, I should feel exceptionally happy right now.

It could be considered fulfilling the dream every man in my previous life dreamed of.

However, at this moment...

Fei Xiao's gaze was fixed on the pitch-black starry sky.

The sky was like a huge black curtain, extending boundlessly above her head, deep and mysterious, evoking an indescribable feeling of oppression and awe.

Fei Xiao recalled the dreams of the past once again, of destroying everything she had once cherished with her own hands.

Since coming to this world, they could be considered her only friends at present.

For a moment, Fei Xiao really dared not tell them everything.

She now bore the "Moon Rage", and one day in the future she might eventually lose control completely, destroy everything before her, and then lonely fade away from this world.

At that time, with the strength of "Fei Xiao", there should be no one in this world who could stop my pace.

And that so-called delusional dream would also become reality.

If I told them about this...

That girl Lin Siyu would surely cry and make a fuss.

Meng Xi might suppress the grief in her heart and then comfort me, saying there must be a way.

No matter the situation, I do not wish to destroy all this.

Thinking of this, Fei Xiao suppressed a sigh.

Sigh, I don't know how 'Fei Xiao' maintained such optimism and firmness about her predetermined death.

Even though I have already become Fei Xiao, it is still very difficult to do all this.

After all, at best, I am just a fake who stole someone else's appearance and abilities.

Even with the corresponding abilities and partial Remembrance, I still cannot be like her in the end.

...

Fei Xiao stood up with a heavy heart, preparing to leave.

"It's getting late today, you should rest early too."

"Sister Fei Xiao... what's wrong?" Meng Xi looked at the other party with some worry.

Fei Xiao feigned relaxation and said: "What could be wrong with me! I'm just a little tired."

After speaking, she didn't stop her steps but instead slightly quickened her pace.

"Sister Fei Xiao, if you have anything on your mind, you can confide in us."

Meng Xi ignored Fei Xiao's words and continued.

"I really..."

This time, before Fei Xiao could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Lin Siyu.

Lin Siyu was no longer silent and spoke loudly.

"Sister Fei Xiao, are we not best friends?"

"Hmm, although we haven't spent long together, that is indeed the case."

Fei Xiao stopped her steps this time and did not deny the other party's words.

"Then you can confide your worries to us, you don't have to keep them bottled up inside."

When saying this, Lin Siyu's voice could already be heard trembling slightly.

Fei Xiao did not look back, but she knew that Lin Siyu was probably...

"Why do you say that?"

Fei Xiao turned her head and no longer avoided the topic.

Under the moonlight, she could barely make out the faces of the two.

Lin Siyu's eyes were slightly red at this moment.

Meng Xi was no longer looking cold, her face full of worry.

Meng Xi said in a gentle tone: "Sister Fei Xiao, you really don't know how to hide your inner thoughts."

Lin Siyu was also slightly angry.

"We know you are very strong, but you don't need to force yourself. If you're feeling bad, just say it. Even if we can't help you, you'll feel a bit better."

That's right, in her previous life, Fei Xiao was just an ordinary young person.

Even now she would still be troubled, and she just happened to be very bad at hiding her emotions.

When the three of them were just lying on the lawn.

The two had long noticed Fei Xiao's constantly changing emotions, which were practically written all over her face.

From the initial contemplation to seriousness, worry, fear, and finally helplessness.

They couldn't believe that the Fei Xiao before them, who had always been almost omnipotent, would show such expressions.

They couldn't help, but as best friends, they couldn't just stand by and do nothing while seeing the other party so downcast.

So they couldn't remain silent any longer.

Upon hearing this, Fei Xiao realized that, to put it bluntly, she was a bit of a naive innocent in her previous life.

Her usual moods were basically written on her face.

The negative emotions in her heart today had probably accumulated too much and were completely exposed on the surface.

If it weren't for her conscience, she might have gone out to retaliate against society or something.

Fei Xiao looked directly at the two, feeling slightly hesitant, her heart still not firm enough.

The two also stared at Fei Xiao, neither of them speaking.

Just as the atmosphere was stiff, Fei Xiao's heart trembled, and she looked up at the sky.

The two women followed Fei Xiao's gaze.

The three of them were quickly attracted by the scene before them.

In the ink-black night sky, several meteors suddenly appeared; they were like brilliant gemstones, dragging long Tails, streaking across the sky at an astonishing speed.

Bringing "hope" to the originally pitch-black sky.

Those bright trajectories were like Pokémon in the universe dancing gracefully in the air, instantly lighting up the entire night sky.

Not only them, but people all over the world who hadn't slept also noticed this magnificent spectacle.

Lin Siyu and Meng Xi didn't have the heart to be mesmerized, but they seemed to notice that Fei Xiao appeared completely captivated by this scene.

In Fei Xiao's eyes, there was only the meteor in the sky at this moment.

Her body walked unconsciously in the direction of the meteors.

Lin Siyu and Meng Xi were a bit confused.

The depressed mood from just a moment ago was fixed because of a meteor shower?

Just as the two thought, scenes from the past flashed through Fei Xiao's eyes again.

Her body involuntarily reached out, wanting to grasp the falling meteor.

Murmuring in her mouth.

"No! Don't fall anymore!"

...

"Sister Fei Xiao, are you okay!"

"Sister Fei Xiao, don't scare us!"

The two didn't let Fei Xiao immerse herself in her own world this time; they were a bit worried as they looked at Fei Xiao.

Under the two's calls, Fei Xiao's consciousness cleared up a lot.

The cyan light flashing in her eyes was very conspicuous in this pitch-black forest.
