Chapter Thirty-Three: Awakening from an Empty Dream(1/2)
Colin was thinking a lot. Although the food prepared by the Hall family's top chef was very fragrant and delicious, almost no one really knew her when everyone gathered together.
She could vaguely call out a few people's names, but it would be embarrassing if she called them wrong in front of so many people, so it was really difficult for her to speak.
She was chewing a tender foie gras made from the Thousand Feathers goose species, but she didn't find it delicious at all. Instead, she could feel that the foie gras was too bland.
In the memory and five senses of her previous life, what she ate every day when she was down and out was the product of heavy oil and salt, just because it was easy to preserve, the weather was not hot, and she could even eat it for several days.
She only knows magic that she learned before she was six years old, so she is naturally not as good as anyone else, and she has never studied in a regular college. However, her social experience has been tempered through repeated torture and suffering, and she is quite sophisticated.
She, now, can't get used to this damn noble food.
Maybe it will get better in the future, after all, you have to eat what you have to eat.
She didn't take the initiative to talk to anyone, she just kept her head down and worked hard, so naturally someone would talk to her.
In front of her was Liliantu, the third son of the Carolingian family.
Liliantu watched her eat. Although she was not feasting, at least she was not as noble as our ladies. When she ate very delicious dishes, she would gently sip her chopsticks, spoon and fork. Her memory of family etiquette was also
Yes, but there is no doubt that she simply does not want to be so tired from eating. After all, except for the host Lily Marlene, everyone is just a child.
She ate generously and decently, so there was nothing wrong with it, but this attracted Lillian Tu's attention.
Lilian Tu spent almost the whole meal watching her eating, which sometimes made her quite embarrassed.
His deep and purple pupils kept looking at him, as if he were looking at something very natural and strange.
"You like me?"
In front of Colin, the third son of the Carolingian family was still a little kid. To her, this child-like look was a joke that an elder sister would say to her younger brother.
Liliantu is quite handsome, but unfortunately, she is only a child.
Colin touched his mouth with the handkerchief, put it aside, and looked at Liliantu. Liliantu had been looking at Colin, so of course he knew that this sentence was meant for him.
This sentence is not easy to say.
For an ordinary little boy, there is a high probability that he will nod seriously, respond shyly, or refuse directly.
But Lillian Tu was obviously different. The corners of his mouth were raised, revealing a very natural smile. This smile was a little weird in Colin's eyes, but he was also puzzled.
Lilian Tu said in a childish voice: "It would be great if that were really the case."
Liliantu's food was not touched. Although everyone was still eating slowly, Liliantu had already stood up.
"You are interesting...woman...we will meet again..."
Liliantu buttoned the collar with her hands, staring directly at Colin, but her hands had already finished arranging her clothes, making them neat and neat.
Colin looked at Lilian Tu with half-understanding confusion, watching him say goodbye to Lilian Tu and leave the small hall.
The adults discuss important matters, while the children can only eat.
But if you want to get to know each other, you may still be able to get to know each other.
Colin looked at the second sister and third brother of the Carolingian family. They both looked at her at the same time, so she looked away.
How strange...
today……
Why does she travel through time and space?
Why time travel to today...
she,
What needs to be done?
What can be done?
Just live again?
Although this proposal is very good, she will not agree if she has to live a life of ruined family again!
So now... maybe, there should be some hints... or a turning point...
Her father's death was the beginning of her family's financial ruin and the beginning of her tragic life.
In her memory...why can't she remember this period of time...or maybe it was too long ago and she forgot...
Impossible! She knew about her father's death, but she didn't know the year or month, or even where it happened! How is this possible?
In such a tragic past life, she should be more or less deeply impressed by her father's death and will never forget it forever...
Why...just can't remember it?
As long as she changes! If she changes the history of her father's death, her life will inevitably change!
"Hello~ Are you Miss Colin Colidge?"
Lily Marlene sat in front of Colin with a piece of juice.
Colin was pulled away from his thoughts and when he saw Lily Marlene, her whole body straightened up.
Lily Marlene is twelve years older than her, and only eighteen years old in her prime. According to the logic of the big family, she can go to the hall to dine and participate in the dragon meeting, but maybe because there is also a need here.
She is just the right person who can control the situation, so she appears here.
"Yes... Colin Colledge."
Colin nodded.
Lily Marlene also smiled and signaled.
"Dear Miss Colin Colidge, don't pay attention to my brother, he is sometimes weirder than my father... But don't worry, he means no harm..."
Lily Marian was obviously paying attention to her brother's behavior, but she just pointed out this embarrassing behavior in person out of politeness and to save face.
Lilian Tu, who was staring at Colin, was naturally extremely rude in Lily Marlene's eyes, but he didn't know what Lilian Tu said to Lilian Tu, making her sit here and specifically talking about this matter.
That's even more strange. I don't know Lilian Marian. Even Liliantu is famous because he was famous enough to secure the first place in the magic group at the Dragon Creation Conference.
He was in the same class as me, so he would naturally remember it more clearly.
However, there is no intersection!
In my memories of my previous life, they never appeared at all, or even provided help.
When I was homeless, I didn’t expect help from others. I had already experienced hardships, so how could I still have so much that I didn’t have?
"How are the preparations for the Dragon Out Competition? Miss Coric? Have you contacted Fran's mentor?"
Lily Marlene's two questions were coherent so as not to appear to be mocking Colin.
Because everyone in Wenti County knows that Lilian Tu will be the champion of the magic group of this dragon conference. No matter how talented the water element magician Colin is, he can only serve as a foil for Lilian Tu.
It doesn't matter to Colin, because in her memory, she has never participated in the dragon conference at all.
The Outstanding Dragon Conference means a step up. Anyone with top rankings can win the favor of colleges across the principality. However, as the top academy in the principality, Fulan Royal Academy only needs top talents such as first and second place.
In the memory before time travel, Lily Marlene directly gave up on the Dragon Out Tournament at that time and chose to study at an emerging college in the new joint public city [Rastar]. She was obviously more... rebellious.
In other words, I know how to avoid sharp edges and seize opportunities.
The emerging city of Rastal is prosperous and is destined to have extraordinary development opportunities. While everyone is still rushing to go to Flan, the reputation of Rastal is getting better and better, and this woman can see it with her own eyes.
The most important thing for a woman is her broad vision and excellent knowledge. There is nothing new under the sun. It is nothing new to follow the clues, see the leopard in the pipe, be inseparable, and make wild guesses.
Everyone who has different opinions understands it, but everyone who is confused just muddles around and is not very happy.
"No...sister Lily Marlene..."
Colin wanted to be addressed as Lily Marlene, although it was useless for him.
"That's it..."
Lily Marlene looked a little regretful.
When Colin saw Lily Marlene's loss, he couldn't help but become more confused.
Why……
He looks disappointed...
"Is your mother okay?"
They were not familiar to each other. It could only be said that they were not strangers at least, and they could still talk to each other.
Lily Marlene's eyes looked at Colin, and inevitably drifted to the necklace around Colin's neck.
"My mother is fine...Thank you for your concern."
Colin answered naturally, but also seemed a little awkward. No, it should be because he was uncomfortable, too uncomfortable, because everyone was not familiar with him at all.
"I heard that [Shadow Hunters] have been rampant recently, and some people have seen them near the [Morbin Lake Area]. Is it true?"
Lily Marlene seemed to have made a huge turn and asked Colin, as if speaking more truthfully about the matter: "I hope that's not the case..."
"Shadow Hunter...what Shadow Hunter?" Colin looked confused.
She had never known anything about Shadow Hunters. On the honor of the Coric family, no one had ever told her about Shadow Hunters.
This is of course true. She has been pampered since she was a child and is protected in the manor. Naturally, there will be no threats or... the supply of information.
To be continued...
