Chapter 594: An Important Friend (2/2)
Xue Wei tried to be as thorough as possible. The current outcome was already the best among the outcomes he had feared while watching as his previous mutations were slowly disintegrating in front of him.
He would, naturally, prefer if his friend could keep his memories, but he also understood Hei Gou's mentality well. If he had retained his memories, but returned to the strength he had before their first mutation, then the blow he would suffer was much more than what he could handle.
The reason he was willing to risk this mutation was that he assumed that death and success were the only two options. Now that they understood that there were many possible results, they were much more worried.
”Thank you. I would like to hear about the enemy that we are facing, and I am very curious about this No-Man's Land that you mentioned. About my past, we should leave it alone for now.
”Right now, I am struggling to figure out who I am. If we further confuse it with how you all see me, it might become harder to find my real self.
”If I ever have a need to know certain things, then I hope you are still willing to answer my questions.”
The Hei Gou that was standing in front of them now was not as cheerful and silly as in the past, but his core had not changed, and they all respected his choice.
”You can ask us anything whenever you wish to do so. We are companions that have depended on one another through life and death battles, and you are one of the few people in the world that we are willing to entrust our backs to during a fight.”
Xue Wei was not usually a person who would speak emotionally. He was taciturn and felt that actions spoke louder than words.
Even so, to ensure that Hei Gou would understand him, he still went the extra mile to explain his thoughts. As Hei Gou had lost his memories, he was also unable to have the same innate ability to understand his intentions, and thus Xue Wei took the time to explain. He was meticulous in a way like never before.
Lin Xiao and the others were also showing their sincerity towards Hei Gou, and the pure friendship made the Celestial Dog feel relieved. His heart, that had been hanging in his throat, finally settled, and he felt as if the decision he made was the right one.
Although he did not remember these people, they still felt important, and the way they treated him was enough to make him understand that he too was a valued member in their group.
