Chapter 22: I'm Back

The Wizards' Guild where Merlin is now located is located in the southern city of the royal capital of the Ernst Kingdom, which was a wasteland a long time ago, and after the establishment of the Wizards' Guild Headquarters, with the end of the war, the Ernst Kingdom was founded, and the royal capital was moved over to be accompanied by the Magicians' Guild Headquarters.

It is strange to say that there is more than one headquarters of the Wizards' Guild, there are two other places on this continent where the general association of the Magicians' Guild is established, and the three Magicians' Guilds are established separately and can be connected into a triangle.

The triangle has a very magical power, and before crossing it, Merlin remembered that there was a triangle with many stories, called the Bermuda Triangle Nautical Area. There are many ships that have disappeared mysteriously, and many people have told about its mysteries, and even when they fly overhead, strange things will happen.

It is said that the first person to pass through this sea area was the great navigator Christopher Columbus, who led his fleet through the Bermuda Sea when he encountered violent storms and thrilling waves. It is evident from his later letters to the king how much this horrific voyage to the Bermuda Triangle had on his heart: "For eight or nine days I could not see the sun or the stars", and "I have experienced countless storms in my life, but never once has I been so long and so violent."

And the mystery of the triangle is far more than that, there are many mysterious legends about the triangle in the memory of the distant hometown earth. A very ancient and mysterious country, from the beginning of civilization, the legend of the pyramid has been circulated, and coincidentally, the pyramid is triangular.

Ancient Egypt believed that the pyramids were used to build a ladder for the pharaoh to ascend to heaven, so that he could reach heaven.

There are too many mysterious stories about triangles, and when you travel to another world, you still can't escape the mystery of triangles.

The kingdom of Ernst is quite magnificent, quite a kind of re-travel, from this mysterious magical world, to the most fascinating ancient Greek civilization, that era that countless people yearn for.

The architectural style here is very similar to that of ancient Greece, with stone pillars stacked on top of each other, mortise and tenon joints between the blocks, and stone blocks.

There are acropolis, temples, amphitheaters, colonnades, squares, statues of columned girls.

There are a lot of weird styles, not like what this world should be, and Merlin is dazzled, like a country child who has never been in the city.

People's clothing style is more like that of the ancient Greeks, and there are three very conspicuous features on the clothes, draped, draped, and entangled. What may seem like a simple way to dress is actually quite complicated.

However, this kind of dress is quite exotic, and the women who pass by are either smiling or looking at each other lightly.

Merlin, who was young and at a loss, seemed to be returning to Earth to participate in the costume party, and in this environment, Merlin gradually emptied his mind and knew that the fusion of souls had slowly begun.

The two souls in the body, in a way that they can't see yet, are trying to communicate with each other, and they are like two strangers, both of whom have some good feelings for each other, and want to know more deeply, so they will try to get close to each other.

There has been no shortage of research topics about the soul since ancient times, and I don't know how many ancient sages were eager to study the mysteries of the soul thoroughly, so as to peek into the realm of rejecting mortals.

There are too many soul legends in ancient China, and people can turn into ghosts without entering reincarnation when they die, and they can also escape into reincarnation and reincarnate as a human.

Similarly, there are not a few soul legends circulating in the West, and many people have not dissipated their dead souls, and have become powerful ghosts to spread fear and compose terrifying legends.

There are also many legends about souls in this world, and the necromancer who asked Vodayasso before is a group of decryptors who specialize in the study of souls.

It's just that the necromancer is difficult to find now, and Merlin has no way to ask others about the soul fusion, so he can only passively wait for the soul to fuse.

Now the slow fusion of the two souls gave Merlin a comfortable feeling of soaking in the hot springs and warming his body.

Merlin can keenly perceive that his own soul can be slightly manipulated, and he can slightly sense the soul creeping, and convey the message of greed to another soul that no one controls.

I don't know if it's because of the soul crossing, the original owner of this body has completely disappeared, and only about half of the soul remains, and there is no autonomous consciousness and can't choose to fuse, so I can only passively wait for the soul on Merlin's side to approach.

It's a pity that Merlin has no way to manipulate his own soul, and it is only now that his mind is empty, and a trace of induction is born, and he can subtly perceive the information revealed by his soul.

The soul is hungry and thirsty, like a man who walks in the desert on foot, walks in the desert and gets lost, and has not drunk water or eaten for a long time.

The message that flowed from the soul, and the salivation of another part of the soul, Merlin knew that it was a sign that the souls were merging with each other.

Slowly walking back from the crowded business district back to the Magic Guild Association, and back to a small room in his assigned room, Merlin began to empty his mind and enter a meditative state.

Meditation is a way to improve the mind of a magician, trying to keep the mind focused with attention, to construct something in the mind, to transfer the mind to these things, and to maintain that attention for a long time.

Meditation itself is boring, and meditation looks more like something you do when you have nothing else to do.

In fact, meditation must first have strong willpower, through meditation to change one's inner situation, eliminate those mottled and complex distracting thoughts, so that the mind can empty and return to purity, just like a newborn baby, without any cognition of the world, will not have distracting thoughts into the heart.

The mind is a sacred clearing, and any external thought seems to be able to pollute it.

Comparing the mind to a blank piece of paper, the idea born in the mind is color, and the colorful colors break into the heart, and without preaching or saying hello, he is arrogant like a person who does not know how to draw, holding a pen and mixing colors and starting to draw indiscriminately.

Stroke by stroke, bright crimson, bewitching violet, youthful and moving pink, one color after another is stuffed in, how can the mind still maintain its original appearance.

The tranquility was broken by the hustle and bustle outside, like a girl who walked into a big city, and there was no way to return to the countryside, and it was impossible to choose an honest person, because the restlessness in the heart could not be quiet, and the soul naturally could not recover from the original.

If you want to maintain peace of mind, a strong willpower is indispensable.

Meditation is to control the concentration of attention through this willpower, gradually clean up those strange colors, and regain the original peace of mind.

This process is not something that can be done by meditating once or twice, it takes a long time to meditate to find the deepest quiet appearance of the soul.

However, for meditation, Merlin can only read according to the script, how the Great Magician Criffin explains, and how Merlin, as an apprentice, learns.

There is no superfluous thinking, I empty my body and mind and enter a meditative state, and I have a clearer perception of the state of the soul, and the hunger revealed by the soul is very real, even with Merlin.

At first, I couldn't clearly perceive the soul, and I didn't understand the state of the soul, but now I can feel it more or less, and I can empathize with the experience, and understand how hungry the soul is.

Hunger forced Merlin to quickly withdraw from his meditative state, covered his lower abdomen and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, giving birth to the idea of wanting to eat, and instinctively stood up to find something to eat.

As soon as he walked to the door, shaking his head and coming to his senses, Merlin remembered that he was still meditating, but he was forced by this hunger pang to retreat from his meditative state.

Taking a deep breath, Merlin sat back down, closing his eyes and emptying his body and mind to re-enter the meditative state.

After just trying a few times, my head is always muddy, and once I want to enter a meditative state, I will feel very hungry subconsciously.

It is difficult for people to concentrate in a hungry state, there is no way to re-enter the meditation state, and there is no way to force them to enter meditation, so they can only concentrate on slowing down their body and mind and try to enter meditation.

The state of meditation and the state of hunger are against each other, and I don't plan to bring Merlin to participate in this game, either meditation overcomes hunger, or hunger always keeps the upper hand, and there is no possibility of peace.

However, Merlin gradually became a little vague, the hunger in his body did not know when it would disappear, and the idea of desperately wanting to enter meditation did not know when to leave, Merlin was now like a patient who was about to fall into shock, everything in front of him was blurred, and he vaguely seemed to see death.

It's a little unbelievable, the Grim Reaper is wearing a pitch-black suit, holding a strange instrument to record something, and there are people next to him wearing white coats like those worn by doctors, and they look at each other and think about something.

There seemed to be some strange discussion in my ears, a very familiar voice was saying something, arguing with another very unfamiliar voice, and the quarrel between the two seemed to be due to ......

The familiar voice was really familiar, and it kept echoing in my head, like someone I had known for a long time, and the time was too long to forget.

"This is ......"

Immediately Merlin's eyes widened, and he struggled to get up, and said in surprise, "I'm back!"
