Alicization- II
Sometimes, the Ebony Blade's dominance over parrots is slightly diminished depending on time and events. At that time, memories of the past will emerge from the deepest part of the soul. Let her immerse herself in sweet dreams.
【Anche ......】
When the parrot first saw Anche, it should have been a cool morning. There was a light rain in the sky, and the wind was blowing unhurriedly. The parrot had only killed a pair of vampires disguised as a mill couple ten minutes earlier. His body was soaked in the smell of iron, and the corners of his skirt were stained with blood.
She was washing the blood stains from her dagger in the stream. In the morning light, the blades of steel reflected an unfamiliar light.
"New members? I don't recognize you. ”
The young illusionist didn't look back, and asked the young man who suddenly appeared behind him.
"But I know you. The young man replied in a soft, polite voice, his eyes fixed on the back of the parrot's neck like a predatory snake. "I know the vast majority of people in the Brotherhood...... Or non-human. ”
It's been a long time since the parrot has felt such unadulterated hostility.
Whether it's someone she kills, or someone she's about to kill. The emotions they end up revealing are as chaotic as a witch's cauldron. It's not like this, pure, direct, as delicate as a natural ruby.
But it's so contradictory.
He and she are on the same path.
He would never hurt her at this time.
"So, who are you?" she looked at him, a handsome figure reflected in her beautiful eyes.
"Archer Rip. The black-haired young man replied, "I have come to meet you." Illusionist. ”
Archer Rip. Before the new Imperial agent, Sharp-Eyed Hawk, took over the Empire's internal affairs, the surname Rip was a nightmare for countless Shadowwalkers.
Unexpectedly, the last descendant of this family became one of the members that he and his ancestors had worked so hard to kill.
A Shadow Walker.
An assassin of the Dark Brotherhood.
That's a ...... It's quite curious.
The parrot looked at him, and a light smile gradually appeared on his face. She retracted the washed dagger into its sheath, stood up and turned slightly.
"Well, then, you lead the way. ”
The young Assassin then bowed to her and directed her in the direction of her return. "As you wish, my lady. ”
………………
Curiosity is poisonous**, whether young or old, rich or poor, beautiful or ugly, healthy or sick. Once you take such poison, there is no chance of rescue. It can only be done gradually, gradually, into the abyss of confusion and contentment.
Everyone knows this. But it doesn't make any sense. No matter when and where, there are always countless people or non-people, one after another, who fall into that unpredictable situation in order to satisfy the curiosity of their hearts.
Parrots are one of them.
She wanted to get to know him, she wanted to get to know him.
His beliefs, his thoughts, his hobbies, his habits, all want to know. And as this curiosity deepened, these initiatives in turn affected her. She began to pity Anche's fate and admired Anche's tenacity, and she gradually developed an attitude of appreciation for Anche's hidden hatred and ambition.
Finally, one day, the parrot suddenly finds himself focusing on cooking and dressing up. When I care about every casual movement or the sound of Anche. She realized that there was no way for her to change back to the way she used to be.
[Since you can't escape, let's take it as a destination.] That's what the parrot thought at the time.
So she began to follow Anche, keeping an eye on his every move. Each mission is teamed up as much as possible, and even if it can't be done, it will be followed secretly. No matter how much Anche expresses his boredom and alienation from the parrot, she is still the same.
Assassins will one day be caught and killed.
Parrot didn't want to leave himself with regrets when that day came.
But Anche died in the snowy temple. While seriously wounded, he was dragged into a sealed room by a woman named Alice. Then it was burned to ashes by dragon fire.
And the woman slew the dragon with the ebony blade that was supposed to belong to Anche!
Alice.
The parrot hated the name and hated the person with the name.
How could she take away Anche's sword, how could she take away the glory that should have belonged to Anche, how could she ...... Take Anche away from the parrot!?
This is a blood feud that can only be ended by the complete death of one party.
So, the parrot wants revenge.
And she was indeed on the verge of success.
Several forces set up a seamless killing for Alice in Loristed. And she used illusion to indirectly trick Alice's ebony blade away.
This qiē should have been very smooth. Parrot couldn't have imagined anyone else in the world being able to survive such a deadly trap - expensive and scarce**, mana-weakening food, ebony bolts that pierced the dragon's scales, dozens of mid-to-high-ranking assassins, and hundreds of elite clan warriors—any of which could kill her with ease.
But Alice, the monster, the xenomorph who shouldn't have been in the world, survived! Not only that, but she killed almost everyone in Loristed in an unbelievable way!
[Citsius, is that the power that a man can have?]
[Is it really possible for such an enemy to be defeated by a small illusionist?]
The parrot fell into despair. And in the midst of this desperation, she betrayed the Brotherhood and took up the Ebony Blade.
[Even if it's a betrayal.] 】
[Even if it falls. 】
[Even if you want to use these hands, you can personally bury and sacrifice those who trust you to the Ebony Blade. 】
[As long as you can kill her, kill that woman, kill that monster named Alice, no matter how dark it is, you will not hesitate!]
She longed so deeply for the power of the Ebony Blade. And the Ebony Blade reciprocated her with the same enthusiasm. The power of the demon god filled every corner of her body. Her eyes were gone, her tongue was gone, her nose couldn't smell, and even her body was becoming less and less dominant. But her strength is increasing day by day.
If I continue, I will be able to defeat her before I am completely assimilated. In the ocean of consciousness, the parrot asked again and again towards the Ebony Blade.
Yes, your wish will be granted. Ebony Blade gave her the same answer again and again.
She nodded in satisfaction and allowed herself to sink deeper into the sea of consciousness. There, there were wonderful dreams that she longed for and longed for.
She dreams that she and Ancee become husband and wife in the presence of Mara. Together, the two escaped the Brotherhood, living anonymously in a safe and secluded place, where no Assassin or anything else could find them. She also bore Anche three children, all as strong as their fathers. And when it rains, the children wrap around their knees, wrap around the parrot and Anche to listen to the adventures of their youth......
The parrot was suddenly awakened by a dazzling white light.
Severe pain was felt everywhere in the body, in the shoulders, legs, abdomen, back, there was not a single place that was not covered by excruciating pain. And the most painful part is in her chest.
Minnie's mercury sword pierced through her heart, pinning her to the wall.
The Ebony Blade had fallen into the dust along with her severed arm.
"You've failed, Assassin. The woman in front of her held the hilt of the mercury sword and said lightly.
And the broken memories also appeared in the parrot's mind.
That's right, she failed.
Whether it's strength, will, skill, or body, magic, reflexes, and powers. Minnie Mouse, who has returned to her heyday, is more than a step better than her. And how could there be any surprises in such a battle?
She just ran a few more steps with the speed given by the Ebony Blade.
And now, the Ebony Blade has been cut off along with her hand. The enhancement she had gained by relying on the power of the demon god naturally no longer existed. Of course, the five senses eroded by the ebony blade gradually returned to the parrot's body.
She was surrounded by large, dilapidated buildings, and in the corners of the buildings, some men in white robes were trying to keep some of the frightened populace behind. Dozens of corpses were scattered on the ground, some wearing sacrificial robes, some wearing Gounod armor, and some ordinary people.
[This is the ...... Gina Les Temple?]
[So, is Anche dying here?]
The illusionist opened his mouth, but black and red blood poured out of his mouth. She tried hard to say something, but her tongue, still stiff, got in the way. Even with Minnie's hearing, she could only hear a few vague words.
"Thank you...... Thank you ......"
A smile tugged at the corners of the parrot's mouth, and her eyes looked to a hidden part of the temple where there were traces of fire. With a tilt of his head, he lost his breath.
"What mess?" Minnie Mouse pulled back her mercury sword, letting the parrot's body roll to the ground. This guy chased her and cut her like he had a grudge with him a few days ago. And now he has this expression.
[I don't know what to say.] Could it be that her brain was burned by the Ebony Blade?]
She then flew up and kicked the illusionist's corpse into the same building that the parrot was looking at. Since this guy loves that place so much. Then stay there enough.
She stomped lightly on the ground, and the ebony blade bounced off with a subtle shockwave, the blade pointing downwards and the hilt just into Minnie's palm.
She flicked the spine of her sword, and a crisp trembling sound echoed throughout the temple.
"It's a good sword. Minnie exclaimed in satisfaction, and she opened the belt of her sword and carried the ebony blade behind her back.
[Lucia's sigil is nearby, but it's safe here.] Let her stay here until the last thing is done. 】
Now, the magic of metal domination has been completed, and the ebony blade has returned to her hands, and all sword skills have been mastered. And the dragon's roar is familiar from the beginning.
That is, there is only one last thing left.
Suddenly, a girl's shout came from behind Minnie.
"Sister Alice, please wait a minute!"
The girl who came running with the corner of her skirt was barefoot, wearing a high-end sacrificial robe, and a ruby on the strap around her neck shook it. Her face was pale, but she flushed sickly from the exertion. Behind her, there were some older priests who looked like they were struggling, trying to stop her, but they didn't dare to do anything in the end.
Also.
After all, before Minnie and Parrot's battlefield shifted to the temple, they were engaged in a fierce battle with the rebellious clan warriors. How could you have thought that someone would come and tear down their houses in the middle of the fight? It's normal to be slightly shocked, don't you see those clan warriors who are still alive quietly slipping away.
But Minnie was not interested in talking to them.
"Ruby. She looked at the girl in front of her with a puzzled look on her face. "You...... Want to say something?"
"Save Xueman! It's like killing that dragon. I know you can do it!" said the young deacon anxiously, as she grabbed Minnie's kick and tugged it gently.
Minnie Mouse's hand swept away without a trace.
Even if Alice has a position to do this...... But what does it have to do with me, I'm the dragon that was killed!]
She turned around and said lightly, "Well, I'm going to Longxiao Palace." ”
At the end of her line of sight, the majestic palace was glittering.
[It's time to put an end to this qiē.] 】
