Diary of Guarding Monster Girls-Chapter 640 - 362 Did Not Let Me Down (6K, Please Subscribe!)_3

"Heh heh."

Herbert chuckled softly and looked back at the "self" in the mirror. Only a few breaths had passed since Nenasha first spoke.

The reflection in the mirror still frowned, staring at Herbert outside the mirror, and asked in a deep voice, "What did you just say? Who are you talking to?"

Oh?

Upon hearing this, Herbert raised an eyebrow and asked playfully, "So, you can't see?"

As Herbert expected, the reflection in the mirror was unaware of Nenasha's existence; there was no mention of Her presence in his narrative.

In the ultimate test, all that Herbert could accomplish was attributed to his own talents, rather than divine assistance.

But what Herbert didn't expect was that this one sentence... was addressed to all three individuals present.

Mirror's Reflection: "Can't see, what are you talking about? What am I supposed to see?"

Nenasha: ["I can't see, oh~"]

Lukalia: Huh? What am I supposed to see?

All three believed they were being spoken to individually.

One asks, three puzzled.

???

This final test related to "destiny" could only be seen by Herbert alone.

Even Nenasha couldn't see the presence in the mirror; She only knew that Herbert seemed to be conversing with his shadow.

The reflection in the mirror was unaware of Nenasha's presence and completely unable to grasp the meaning of Herbert's words.

And Lukalia, this Mirror Elf who had been observing a one-man show for a long time, couldn't see anything else, only able to see her shadow in the mirror.

She was now the most perplexed.

He, he had been speaking to the phantoms in the mirror, so now he should be speaking to me, right?

There isn't a third person present, so it must be me, right?

Am I... here?

Should I be here? Or should I not be?

No, I'm right next to you! Why are you asking me?

Also, what am I supposed to see?

The Mirror Demon lady had never been so confused.

Herbert didn't notice Lukalia's reaction; he focused all his energy on the reflection in the mirror and said softly, "Although you can't see, it doesn't matter, I can tell you about her."

"You should be seeing someone who is very important to me."

Herbert slightly tilted his head, trying to look at Nenasha hidden somewhere behind him, and happened to see the stunned Lukalia beside him.

Hmm?

Why do you have that expression?

A strange thought flashed through his mind, but Herbert didn't have the energy to dwell on these minor details and continued speaking with the reflection.

"Although you don't see Her, I cannot be without Her."

"It's by relying on Her that I can stand before you, that I can sustain myself to make it here."

"Without Her, I might have already collapsed long ago."

If, at the beginning of destiny, Nenasha hadn't appeared, then Herbert would likely still be honing himself as a Middle Tier, or even Initial Tier Paladin in the monastery.

The past life's reflection pondered for a while before finally speaking, "You mean, you've met a very important person in this world, important enough that you're willing to forsake true reality and completely immerse yourself in a dream."

"Yes."

Herbert nodded with a smile, blinked at him, and said, "Additionally, I now clearly understand that what you're saying isn't true, you don't need to keep pretending."

"And even if everything is as you say and is false... I would still be willing to abandon that world for Her."

Herbert spoke with a determined gaze, utterly earnest, and then... silently added in his heart, "And for her, her, her, her, yes, for them all."

Herbert didn't think this was some sort of a philanderer's statement.

He only loved everyone equally, as a saint with a great heart!

He was just a bit more loving compared to others.

To Herbert himself, what he was forsaking was the boring world of his past life, a world he couldn't and didn't want to return to.

But for Nenasha, upon hearing this, his words had quite a profound impact.

["!!!"]

She couldn't hear the words of the past life's reflection and could only deduce the entire conversation from Herbert's one-sided snippets - he was willing to give up the entire current world for her!!?

Nenasha never thought there would be someone, other than a believer, willing to say such words for Her.

Willing to forsake the entire world for Her?

Even among fanatical believers, such resolve is rare.

And Herbert bore no traces of being corrupted by Her Power of Faith, meaning—his words were entirely sincere.

!!!

This guy, how can he say these kinds of heartwarming words with such a calm face!!?

["Sigh!"]

Although Herbert had always been very important to Nenasha, an extremely special existence for whom She was willing to make many sacrifices.

But at this moment, Nenasha felt ashamed, realizing that Her willingness seemed less resolute than Herbert's.

She began to reflect on whether she had done enough or if she was still lacking in some aspects.

The Evil God lady was successfully taken aback, becoming slightly bashful and unsure of how to respond to Herbert.

Meanwhile, there was another lady present who was equally stunned.

And behind Herbert, the Mirror Demon lady—was utterly shocked!

!!?

Is... is he talking about me?

Lukalia was completely taken aback!

She didn't know why Herbert suddenly gave her such high praise.

She couldn't comprehend it at all!

What "important person," "forsaking the world"... ah!!?

Is this okay?

What did I do?
