Chapter 837: Twin Souls (I)
Ed stared blankly at the drizzle outside the window. He sits www.biquge.info as close to the window as possible, but is careful not to let a single ray of rain fall on him, as if he can escape the reality he does not want to accept.
However, the drizzle could still fall into his heart, silent, gentle and cold.
"Ed?"
Warm fingers touched his forehead. Naria asked him softly, "What's wrong with you?"
Ed shook his head. He didn't want to answer...... He wanted to tell her "nothing".
Nothing, I'm fine.
When he opened his mouth, endless sadness poured out uncontrollably, and his throat let out a whimper in choking.
He suddenly didn't want to hide it anymore...... He could no longer run away.
“...... She left. He said, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible, "It's nowhere to go." ”
He still didn't have the courage to say her name.
Naria looked at Is, who looked down in thought, and gestured to her a symbol that they were all too familiar with.
Naria was silent for a moment, then leaned over and hugged Ed gently.
"I'm sorry. "But lo and behold, Ed ...... She's everywhere. ”
The sound of the rain seemed to echo softly.
Everywhere - Sean said the same thing. At this point, Ed could finally understand that it didn't bring much comfort.
Everywhere, but can no longer be touched, cannot communicate...... In a sense, perhaps more desperate. And he didn't even notice it at first, until a drizzle drifted into his dreams, and Felicity smiled at him on the other side of the river of time...... Then dissipate in the rain.
He didn't even have time to ask her where she was going. He never had a chance again.
Ed closed his eyes and allowed himself to rest his head on Naria's shoulder.
Just for a moment...... He thought. Although he always avoided such overly intimate manners when Iss was around, the warmth in her arms was what he desperately needed. Even if she doesn't really understand his grief...... She was just grieving for his grief.
Sometimes even he couldn't understand what Felicity meant to him. The time they spent together was only a handful of days...... Whether it is with that lively girl or that loving old man, whether it is facing a fresh life or a wandering soul.
But she changed his life...... More radically than Isis and Naria changed his life
"The Whisperers believe that it is the world that gives them strength. "So when they die, they return to the earth like fallen leaves...... It's the best place to be. ”
That was probably the best comfort he could think of.
Ed looked up, taking a deep breath of water wafting from the window...... And the light fragrance of the grass and earth, quiet and calm.
If he wanted to mourn Felicity, the best way to do that was not to sit here and weep, but to find the man who had defiled the return journey with rumors.
He can even find Ankeland...... He couldn't have found an Aaron Mansini.
"She has two souls, doesn't she?"
Narya's thoughtful words changed Ed's goal.
In fact, Felicity had only one soul...... Rabaijah was not one with her. Judging by the experiences of Ed and Is, although it is not known if there are any restrictions, it is clear that Rabeya can act alone. If Felicity has disappeared...... What about Labaia?
Ed knew he couldn't let Iss summon the souls of the dead like he had last time, and while that might have been what Felicity wanted, it had undoubtedly drained her too much power.
So...... How was he going to find a soul that might have been very weak?
Ed didn't think about it for long.
He walked into the courtyard and stood in the drizzle. Raising his hand, the dense rain soon gathered a small puddle of water in his palm.
"Tell me. He whispered.
A faint light flashed in the palm of his hand. For a moment, his perception stretched infinitely along with the rain.
He thought he could see every nook and cranny of the rain-shrouded southern plains, after all, the drizzle connected the whole heaven and the earth, bathing all things...... However, he could only see countless points of light looming in the mist, like stars in the mist.
He couldn't tell, but he never gave up. Rabeja was special, and if she was here, he couldn't have missed it.
He didn't know how long it had taken - he couldn't feel the passage of time, but he had finally found her, a faint but unusually clear light...... Then there was a little hazy shadow, as if rippling in the ripples of the water.
Night has long fallen. Labea looked up at him in the darkness, as if sensing something. Her face is so similar to Felicity...... But it's very different.
Ed sprang out. Naria called his name behind him, and Is's footsteps followed, the only thing he could hear was the sound of the rain and his heavy heartbeat.
He found her in the shadows on the corner of Aigle...... Not an ethereal soul, but a real body, cowering under an ancient statue of a trumpeter, raising its pale face to him.
Her blue eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of white mist, glowing with the ashes of the dead, and her long blonde hair was wet and clinging to her thin body, stiff and cold, almost indistinguishable from the statue beside her.
“...... You've found me. She said.
"Elena......" Ed whispered blankly, "Rabea?"
Elena's body, Rabea's soul...... He found them at the same time, but his mind was in turmoil.
“...... She has a heartbeat. Iss spoke in surprise behind him.
"It didn't last long. Eleanor opened her bruised lips, her voice dry and strange, but calm, "Let's get out of here first...... You're not the only ones looking for me. ”
She tried to stand up, but the simple movement was difficult for her. Iss leaned over and picked her up, unceremoniously kicked Ed, who was still in a daze, and shoved her into his arms.
"You go back first. He said.
"What about you?" asked Ed, dumbfounded.
"Beat a few people. Isis replied coldly, and before he could finish speaking, the figure had disappeared into the darkness.
Ed involuntarily chased a few steps away, but he could no longer be found, only a low scream could be heard not far away.
"Don't worry. "Elena...... There seemed to be a hint of a smile in Rabeya's voice, "Your friend is strong...... You should know better than anyone else. ”
Ed's face was a little hot - it would be useless to need her comfort at such a time.
He didn't dare to use spells rashly, so he could only hold the cold body in his arms and run all the way.
In the rain, he faintly heard the footsteps of more than one person.
