Act XXXXI: The End of the Holy One
After Brunhill's reminder, Rosen suddenly woke up, although it has always been said that the holy war is tragic and most of the strong people of order and civilization have fallen in the war, but not all the strong have died in the holy war, at least all seven saints have survived the holy war.
After the people of chaos were sealed, there should be no enemies on the earth who could threaten the existence of the saint level, so why did these saints who should have a long lifespan disappear one after another, and they are not secluded, at least almost all the saints that Rosen saw have fallen.
"Although I am still alive, I am actually not happy, and I can only escape my fate by sealing all my strength and living in this retreating furnace. ”
Brunhill looked at Avinia a little helplessly.
"Looks like you've tried that too, and that's your answer in the end?"
Rosen didn't understand what they were talking about, but it seemed to hold a huge secret.
"What the hell does this mean, Avinia?"
He looked at the Sage beside him, the girl bit her lower lip and pondered for a long time, but she was still reluctant to speak.
"Oh, it seems you don't know why, and Avinia probably doesn't want you to know either. ”
Brunhill looked at Rosen meaningfully and continued.
"But actually, you, as the remains of Graysius, will know this fact one day, and since Avinia is not going to tell you, then let me tell you. ”
Rosen looked at Brunhill, waiting for his answer.
"The reason why the Sages fall one by one is because the fate of the Sages is like this. ”
Brunhill said something that sounded odd.
"As you must already know, those who are chosen by the goddess can only become saints if they accept their fate, which includes gaining great power to fight against the people of chaos and save the world, and when the war is over, all saints will fall. ”
"What does that mean, all of them will fall?"
In this way, it seems as if the so-called Sages are nothing more than tools against the invasion of the Chaos People, appearing only in times of war, and after the war is over, they will turn into dust and dissipate into history.
"Yes, the first to notice this was Veron Eiscliffe. ”
Brunhill nodded, with a tone of reminiscence.
In the midst of the war, he comprehended the laws, and in the midst of many complex laws, Veron accidentally glimpsed the end of his fate, which was the end of the Sage that even Avinia could not know. ”
Rosen suddenly remembered that Veron had said that he had glimpsed the future script between the cracks of the law, and Rosen didn't understand this sentence at the time, but now, after hearing Brunhill's explanation, Rosen suddenly realized.
What Wei Lun said should be the fate of the Sage, he was already aware of these at that time, so he was trying to circumvent it in some way, but the result was naturally a failure.
Later, the various Sages also became aware of this in their own ways, and at that time it was the end of the war, and there were not many days left before the day of fate, the Sages cleaned up the mess while looking for a way out of this predicament, and when the war was completely over, they left to carry out their own plans. ”
Brunhill said, in his tone, there was no joy or sorrow, only sighs.
A saint with extremely powerful power can only succumb to the shackles of fate, and cannot even decide his future like ordinary people.
Sad, but also lamentable.
"From what I know, Reed Gray and Veron Eisleaf should have failed and fallen, and Cronor Elise chose to turn himself into a firewood that stabilized the seal of the Elemental Realm, Avinia and Graysius seem to have a clue, as for Eustia, I don't know. ”
Although Brunhill said that he had been sealed for a long time, he still knew a lot about the outside world.
"Escaping fate, can this kind of thing really be done?"
Rosen was a little curious, according to Brunhill, the fate of this sage is even above the law, similar to the will of the world, even an existence like Velen Eisleaf can't escape, so is there really more than one way to dodge?
"Of course, you have two best examples in front of you. ”
Brunhill gestured at Avinia.
"You might as well ask her how she escaped the fate of the Sage. ”
Hearing Brunhill's words, Rosen looked at Avinia again.
The Sage finally let out a long sigh and spoke after a long silence.
"The end of the Holy One is death, so I didn't actually succeed in escaping the fate of the Holy One, because I did die, but with Reed's help, I was able to save the fragment of my soul and will in some form, and resurrect in this body. ”
But the side effect of Rosen is also clear, that is, Avinia has lost most of her original strength, and even to maintain her consciousness, she needs to consume a huge amount of mana, and she is even almost eroded by the people of chaos on the way.
"In order to help me, Reed consumed most of his strength, so he fell, and it took the strength of two saints to achieve such a degree, which is already the limit. ”
Avinia said, looking up at Brunhill.
"So, Ereda Brunhill, how did you do it all by yourself?"
Hearing Avinia's question, Brunhill smiled, then pointed to the top of his head.
"As I said from the beginning, we're in a retreat furnace right now, you know what that means?"
The Retraction Furnace is an energy device composed of two frozen mana anomalities, and the mana anomalies are the point where the mana density in a unit of space is close to infinity, causing a distortion of space and time, the closer to the mana anoma, the slower the flow of time, according to calculations, when located in the mana anoma, time will even tend to stand still.
"Here, time is slowed down indefinitely, and it is by this that I have delayed the arrival of my fateful day. ”
Brunhill said, his voice low.
"But as long as you enter here from the outside, it is almost impossible to escape from the magic anomaly, so as you can see, I am also trapped here, but you don't have to worry, you should enter here through the resonance of the plane, we are actually in different planes, and the gravitational pull of the magic anomaly should have no effect on you. ”
"But there's a catch. ”
Rosen listened to Brunhill's explanation and continued.
"Why is your fate like this, if the Sage is the one chosen by the Goddess, then the fate of death should also be made by the Goddess, why is that?"
