Chapter 41: I Am Her
As the group stepped out of the hotel, they glanced back in the direction of the city, where war was still raging, and all kinds of magic of different colors were constantly exploding in the air, and the shouts could be heard, the roars of wild beasts, and the creepy laughter.
Sending everyone off was Avalonsa, who had been the supreme commander of the Dawn Fortress, but because of the presence of the Brilliant King Dion, he seemed to have nothing to do at this time, and most importantly, with his current strength, he could not participate in a battle of the level of facing the Lich King.
At this time, Lance and Avalonza's right hands were tightly intertwined in front of their chests, but no one spoke the first word.
Finally, Avalonsa couldn't help but be the first to speak: "Old friend, I will definitely hold out until the day you come to liberate this place, I just hope that this day will not make me wait too long." After speaking, he glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye, where a woman was looking at the man in front of him stupidly.
Lance didn't speak, but grabbed Avalonsa's right hand and increased his strength, and finally nodded firmly, which was considered to be a response to Avalonsa. At the same time, looking softly behind Avalonsa, the woman turned her back shyly at the sight of Lance's gaze.
He's been like this since many years ago, he's not good at words, but he feels incredibly grounded with him, isn't that what makes him so attractive?
When Jiao Niang finally made up her mind to muster up the courage to turn around, she found that the group had gone away, and she couldn't help but feel a little lost in her heart.
Avalonza came to Jiao Niang's side and said, "Why don't you say hello to him......?"
"That's good enough, I believe him. What appeared in front of Avalonsa's eyes was a smiling face with tears, and when she said that, her face was full of the trust of the most Lance, and the longing for another reunion, the appearance of the pear blossom with rain, hit the weakest part of Avalonsa's heart, but unfortunately, the person who should have seen this scene did not see it.
Seven days later, two carriages slowly approached the gate of the Dazzling Court, at this time the atmosphere at the gate was solemn, an army was passing through the gate in an orderly manner, at the end of this army was a burly middle-aged man, tall, the whole body was filled with a lingering bloody aura, under the feet was an equally tall and unusual horse, the horse was wrapped in heavy iron armor, only to see the limbs and a pair of sharp eyes, the weight of the iron armor on the body alone was not under 100 kilograms.
When the middle-aged man passed by the carriage, he didn't see how the man moved, and the horse under his feet stopped very obediently, only making a "bang" stampede.
Jumping from the front of the carriage looked like a man who had been a coachman before, the man had dazzling blond hair, and it was he who came to the middle-aged man, bowed down slightly, and said, "Father." ”
The rugged face of the middle-aged man who was called his father showed a jerky smile, looked at his proudest son, and said in a mellow voice: "It's good to come back, you did a good job this time, and you didn't lose the face of our Furukawa family." ”
The blonde man is none other than Lance who has returned from the Dawn Fortress, and the one who can be called his father by Lance can only be the iron-blooded general of the Divine Tree Kingdom and the right-hand man of the Brilliant King.
Seeing his father's battle, although Lance had already guessed, he still subconsciously asked, "Father, is this going to the Scarlet Border?"
Lan He nodded and said, "Your Majesty is fighting on the front line, how can you be a courtier to enjoy happiness in the rear?" Now that you are back, there is no need to worry about the future here, don't let me down!"
"Drive!" Lan He slapped the horse's belly with both feet, and the horse neighed under his feet, and quickly caught up with the troops in front, leaving Lance in place with a wry smile.
If it is not surprising, His Majesty's original intention must have been to ask his father to stay in the Dazzling Court, in case the noble faction has any moves, just according to his father's character and consistent style...... Maybe that's why His Majesty called him back.
In this way, the most elite troops of the Furukawa family gradually moved away from the streets, and the pedestrians on both sides of the street invariably stopped their movements and saw off this victorious army with the most pious knightly salute.
The two carriages passed through the city gate unhindered to the gate of the Royal Academy of Martial Arts, and six people walked down from the carriages, namely Lance, Cooper, Sophia, and Yin, Kalulu, and Merlin. There were six people when I went, and six people when I came back.
Lance said to everyone, "Okay, let's all go back and rest today, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." After saying that, he took the lead in leaving, but the direction was not inside the academy, but left straight outside.
The people in the academy didn't seem to notice the departure of Dean Jon, and continued to operate in the same orderly manner as usual.
From time to time, there are still students who go up to compete in the martial arts arena, and everyone seems to be unaware of what is happening on the front line.
After walking a distance, Sophia said: "Brother Yin, Sister Merlin, Cooper and I will go back to rest first, and we'll see you tomorrow~" After speaking, he nodded friendly to the taciturn Kalulu, and then pulled the unknown Cooper and ran away instantly, and the direction he went to seemed to be really the direction of the dormitory.
So only Yin, Merlin and Kalulu were left on the field.
"We ......" Before Yin could say anything, it seemed that he couldn't stand the embarrassing atmosphere present, and Kalulu left Yin and Mei Lin and walked away alone, still doing her own thing.
There is nothing to be done about Kalulu's behavior, and at this time, Mei Lin is the only one left by her side, and after what happened on the night of the Dawn Fortress, the atmosphere between the two seems to be particularly strange.
Finally, it was Mei Lin who broke the silence and said, "Why don't you go with me?"
Yin nodded embarrassedly, and agreed to Mei Lin's request, besides, he didn't have any plans for the next step, so it was good to accompany Mei Lin to pass the time.
The two walked around the academy, both of them were silent along the way, and neither of them opened their mouths to break the silence, and Merlin, who returned here, seemed to have turned back into the weak, playful ordinary girl, who would greet the juniors and sisters she met on the road cordially, and would kick the stones under her feet idly.
No one could have imagined that such a gentle, beautiful, and near-perfect girl would dare to face the jealous Medusa when she returned to the graveyard of reincarnation, and fight back and forth with the Lich King.
"Shall we go and sit down in the front?" said Merlene suddenly, pointing to a gazebo in front of her, which was now empty and empty.
Yin nodded, it was agreed, and the two soon came to the pavilion, Mei Lin was bored to pick up the stones at her feet and throw them into the lake outside the pavilion, the stones fell into the water, splashing pieces of water, maybe just like Mei Lin's heart, it seems to be calm, but in fact it is magnificent.
Looking at the calm lake in front of her, Mei Lin said in a daze: "I have always thought that my strength is a gift from God, and after experiencing all this in the reincarnation cemetery, I know that this is a test and a responsibility. ”
Yin just opened his mouth to answer, but heard Mei Lin continue to look ahead and say: "When I was three years old, I showed an extraordinary talent for magic, even if I don't meditate and cultivate, my magic power will increase with a steady range, and now that I am twenty-three years old, I have reached the peak of the Seven Leaves, and it should be a matter of time before I reach the Nine Leaves, right?"
Yin pondered for a while and said, "Although I haven't seen much magic, your light magic seems to be different from others?"
Hearing Yin's words, Merlin shook her head and said, "To be exact, mine is divine magic. Have you ever heard of the goddess Esfil?"
Esfil: I learned from the Beastmaster that she was the goddess who passed down the Seven Divine Relics?
He nodded silently.
Although Merlin turned her back to Yin, she seemed to see Yin's movements, and continued: "It is rumored that the magic possessed by the goddess Esfil is divine magic, and has the ability to dispel all the filth in the world, although I have no memory of anyone other than me, but I know in the dark that I am her. ”
When Mei Lin finished saying the last sentence, Mei Lin slowly turned around and looked directly into Yin's eyes, and what kind of pupils were reflected in Yin's eyes!
The originally dark eyes were evenly divided into four pieces by a white cross, and there were a little milky white embellishments in the pupils, shining like white stars, and at the same time, Mei Lin's body shone with countless milky white light, reflecting the pavilion and the lake as pure and sacred as a milky white world.
The pitch-black bracelet on Yin's wrist trembled constantly, making a trembling sound of appointment, as if he was excited to see someone closest to him.
It's just that soon the abnormalities in Mei Lin's eyes and body quickly disappeared, and she became the playful princess she was known again.
"Good~" Seeing the strange appearance of the hidden black bracelet, Mei Lin said softly, just a simple word, the black bracelet immediately calmed down like an obedient child, as if nothing had happened just now.
Mei Lin chuckled at Yin, "Now you should understand that you, like me, are people who have been favored by miracles, but we are all too weak now. Do you have any plans for the next step?"
Hearing Mei Lin's question, Yin recalled the words of the Beastmaster, and blurted out four words.
"Forest of the Sage!"
"I'm going to take a look at the Sage's Forest, and I should be able to retrieve a lot of memories when I get there. Yin said.
"The Forest of the Sage?...... Mei Lin thought for a while, and soon found this place in her mind, Mei Lin came to Yin's side briskly, and said with a smile: "Then I'll go with you, it is rumored that it is a country shrouded in holy light, and I should also gain something there!"
Yin couldn't find a reason to refuse, so he agreed to Mei Lin's request, and at the same time, his heart was full of expectations for a stunning beauty to go on the road together.
When the two returned to their residence, it was already very dark, and Yin and Mei Lin went back to their own rooms, and they all lay on the bed at the same time, sleepless all night......
