Chapter 15: Betty's 400 Years (Part 3)
"The world is getting more and more interesting. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "The red lotus sitting in the courtyard looked at Lan who came back beside her. The latter nodded, sitting beside it.
"By the way, do you know where the Dream City is?" asked Arashi, who was lost at the beginning, to Red Lotus.
"That kind of place, how could I possibly know. Honglian rolled her eyelids comically, and then pointed to the top of her head with her paws, "Isn't that person's daughter here, don't you know if you ask her?"
"Then I'll ask tomorrow. ”
"Whatever you want. ”
Raising their heads to look at the dazzling stars in the sky, the long night was about to disperse in silence, but the darkness would remain for a long time. In the second half of the night, Lan slept very unsteadily, I don't know if it was an illusion, he faintly heard a person's crying in his sleep.
The next day, the sky was fine.
Arashi woke up to the morning mist, dew sliding down the foliage, and the occasional conversation of passers-by came from the street outside the walls.
Maybe it was because he didn't sleep well last night, Arashi remembered that this should be the first time he woke up since he came to this world, rubbed his face twice, and sat up again Arashi walked towards the living room. Betty, who didn't know when she would get up, was already sitting on the sofa by herself, holding the tea Emilia had bought.
"Good morning. ”
"Is that your way to say hello while grabbing your ass?" Betty, who had a calm face, glared at Arashi twice, "After washing, I have something to talk to you about." ”
Arashi nodded and said, "It just so happens that I have something to ask you as well." He sat down across from Betty, "Let's talk now." ”
"Don't talk to me, have bad breath. Betty pinched her nose with her little hand in disgust.
"Oh, I ate some green onions last night. Arashi said calmly, "Let's talk quickly, Ronnie will be coming over in a while, what do you want to say to me?"
The girl who bit her lip a few times finally put down her hand in resignation and asked quietly, "Mother, is she okay?"
"Yes, it's beautiful. ”
"Who asked you this, stupid. Betty cursed, "I don't know how Mother talked to you, but there's no doubt about her death four hundred years ago." ”
Lan agreed, "I'm also curious about this, why people who have died can still get out of that book. ”
"Be careful with your words. Betty felt that the guy in front of her had been challenging her bottom line, "I thought last night, it should be a projection made by borrowing the Gospels, and my mother has wisdom that ordinary people can't reach." I have always believed that even if she loses her body, she will still live in this world in a different way. ”
"Is it leaning towards the spirit body?"
You can understand it this way. Betty took a sip of her tea, "I don't know what Mother asked you for, but I want you to listen to me first." ”
"I ......" Facing Arashi, who was willing to listen to this, Betty put down her crossed legs and sat down, "I hope you can help me resurrect my mother." ”
"Ha!!" Lan raised her eyebrows in surprise, you mother and daughter are really matched, one asks to kill her, and the other hopes to resurrect her together.
"What's wrong? surprised?" Betty looked at Arashi suspiciously, who quickly shook her head.
"I'm just curious why you think I have what it takes to help you resurrect your mother. ”
"Four hundred years ago, before my mother died, she left me and Rozval two Gospels, both of which mentioned that in 400 years, there will be a man who will end the cycle of all sin. ”
"Rozval?!" Arashi showed a surprised expression, it was really amazing.
"Well, he was a student of his mother. Betty took a deep breath, "It's too complicated, I'll tell you about it from beginning to end." ”
"Four hundred years ago, before the witch crusade began, my brother and I were new elves made by our mother, and Rozval was an apprentice studying magic from my mother's side. ”
"As people become more and more afraid of the power of witches, the world has gradually decayed. The brave warriors led by the first sage, the Sword Master, and the Divine Dragon King began to launch a crusade against the witch. ”
"At that time, we were forbidden to participate in the battle by my mother, and in order to prevent our private behavior, she imprisoned the three of us in magic and left alone, and before she left, my mother signed a contract with me, so that I must wait until the person I agreed to appear. ”
"When the three of us finally broke our mother's magic, we got the news of her death. People across the continent are celebrating the arrival of peace, toasting to the death of witches. Rozval, who was still an apprentice at the time, took the gospel left by his mother and embarked on a journey to a foreign country alone, and my brother and I never believed that our omniscient mother would be killed by mortals, so we traveled in vain around the world, hoping to find the survivors of the year and confirm the news of our mother. ”
"Is the brother you're talking about, is that Parker?" Arashi suddenly remembered that Betty seemed to have been calling Parker her brother.
"Yes. Betty bowed her head gloomily, "We've had a lot of trouble on the way to find it. Once again, when confronted by the Human Raiders, my brother led the enemy to another place on my own to cover me, and I haven't heard anything from it since. ”
"I searched alone for a hundred years, and when all the survivors of the crusade were gone, I was desperate, but I promised my mother. Betty paused, gathering her mood again, "No matter what, you have to wait until someone who changes everything." ”
"I think it was my mother's order to me, and I lived in the trading city of Kararaki for a while to wait for that person. It wasn't until Rozval found me that she was already the granddaughter of Rozval, the legendary magician of the Kingdom of Lugnica. ”
"Wait, I'm a little confused, I don't know very well, can you explain the rest of the sentence again?" Lan rubbed his temples, he really couldn't understand the last sentence.
"Human life is short and fragile, and in order to resurrect his mother, Rozval developed a magic that extracted his soul and preserved it in another body. But because of the nature of magic, it can only be applied to those who have their own bloodline, so Rozval keeps reproducing offspring while transferring his soul to the other person's body at the right time. Speaking of which, Betty once again showed her disdain for her mother's apprentice.
"Oh, Uncle Snake, I see. Saying something that Betty didn't understand at all, Arashi nodded to show that she fully understood Rozval as a person.
Signaling Arashi not to interrupt her words at will, Betty coughed twice and continued: "After Rozval found me, a sentence appeared in the Gospel in the hands of both of us, which told us the name of a place, and when we arrived at that place, we finally found the body of my mother immersed in the bottom of the river. ”
"Rozval and I brought our mother's body back to our hometown and placed it in the Sanctuary. Rozval asked me to help him resurrect his mother together, and I agreed to his request with the idea that it might succeed. ”
"Following Rozval back to her house, I became the caretaker of the forbidden library, waiting for the promised person to appear, while watching Rozval implement his plan to resurrect his mother step by step. ”
The Gospels seem to have been kind to Rozval, and the one in his hand often had various foreshadowings. My book never revealed anything other than the names of the places mentioned on that occasion, and I guessed that it was my mother's arrangement that made me meet Rozval. ”
"I lived in Rozval's mansion and waited for three hundred years, until one day Rozval came back with Emilia who looked exactly like Shatila. ”
"Amilia?!" Arashi's eyebrows furrowed deeply, "She looks exactly the same as Satila the Jealous Witch?!"
"Well, it's not just the identity of a half-elf, but also the appearance of a person. Isn't that incredible? When I first saw her, I thought so. What's even more hateful is that even the brother who met again was guarding her at that time. Betty stomped her foot hard as she said this.
