It's been three days since the battle against the Church of Shadows.

In the past three days, the high-level of the Mercenary Union of Lyle City has been reorganized, and the traces of the Great War still need to be slowly eliminated.

Under Vernina's command, the dead were gathered and buried, and the wounded were properly disposed of. The outcasts of the Shadow Church were burned to death by the power of the elements, as one wished.

Joey and Turner have also been buried, and their names are forever engraved on the Magic Stone Tablet of the Mercenary Guild branch in Lyle.

Hammer has always regarded Joey as a nephew, and after learning of Joey's death, he is also so sad that he sheds several old tears.

Gray spent the next three days designing and drawing a large defensive magic for the building of the Mercenary Guild branch in Lyle, which could also act as a buffer if there was another attack like this.

Kester was weakened for almost three full days due to the side effects of Ike's possession. But in the past three days, he has also benefited a lot. Kester mastered the use of the Space Gem on the Silver Serpent. He took the only 6 silver coins he had left on his body and a pile of miscellaneous items (the tail pin of the traveler's scorpion, the fruit of the man-eating flower, the mercenary voucher...). And the mess of the map) was all thrown into the bucket-sized storage space in the Space Gem. At the same time, after experiencing the perception of this battle, he also successfully completed the promotion of the level of the magician and became a seventh-order magician. The only thing that made Kester helpless was that no matter how he explained it, Amethyst Goose and the other mercenaries no longer believed that he only had the strength of the seventh order.

Suffice it to say, everything seems to be slowly starting to get back on track, except for one person – Fink!

For three days, it had been windy and rainy, and Fink had been alone by Susan's shell. He didn't eat or drink, and he was too tired to sleep on Susan's stomach for a while, but soon woke up. There were people around, but most of the time, Fink was like a wax figure, just quietly watching Susan's quiet expression and not saying a word. If he had any other reaction, it would be sad and weeping.

"It's not okay to go on like this..."Gray was at a loss for this, and after trying all the methods he could, he still found Kester helplessly: "Xiaoye, you are the best at creating miracles, is there any way to stop Fink from sinking now?" ”

"This... After all, what happened three days ago was a coincidence..."Kester smiled awkwardly and took his eyes off the sleeping White Feather Silver Wing on the sofa next to him, "If I had the ability to perform miracles, I wouldn't let the Shadow Church do anything here." ”

"Anyway, you're also a kid with a lot of good ideas, Fink's matter, I just hope you can help me figure out a way, after all, he is the hope of our Amethyst Goose in the future." Gray said sincerely, "Even if we don't succeed, we will thank you from the bottom of our hearts." ”

The other party said this, and Kester couldn't refuse, so he had to nod: "Okay, I'll do my best." ”

**********

When the two came to Fink's side, he still looked at Susan with tender eyes, but unfortunately, Yiren was not there, and no amount of staring could bring back Susan's soul.

"Fink, we're coming—" Kester stood in front of Fink.

Fink just glanced up at Kester, but didn't speak, his eyes filled with deathly silence.

Kester continued, "I know that Susan's death has left you devastated, but after all..."

"Susan, she's not dead, she's not dead!" Fink jumped up like an enraged beast: "She just needs a little sleep... I'm with her..."

"Fink, it's time to wake up! The rest of them have already been buried, and so has Susan..."

"It's all you, who caused Susan to fall into a coma, I don't care about Joey and them, whether they are sent to death or implicated, it has nothing to do with me, but Susan she just needs to rest!" Fink said stubbornly.

It would be fine if Fink didn't mention Joey, but Joey died trying to save Kester. When Kester heard Fink's words, he immediately became angry. Although he was calm, he would never allow Fink to say this: "Fink, do you know what you just said?!" ”

"I said..."

Kester knew what he was going to say as soon as he saw Fink's expression, and suddenly his anger rose from the bottom of his heart, he raised his fist and punched Fink in the side face: "Fink, you're a fucking bastard!" ”

"What?" Fink was visibly stunned.

Kester didn't answer, but grabbed Fink by the collar and punched him on the other side of the face: "These two punches just now were for Uncle Joey, what were you Fink doing when he sacrificed his life for the mercenary union?!" You're just guarding Susan's body, not caring about the outside world! ”

Fink also jumped up like a squirrel with his tail stepped on, and he punched back hard, hitting Kester on the left cheek: "How many times have I said it, Susan, she's not dead yet!" It's all you, and she was forced to fall asleep. ”

"You're hypocritical, don't think that you can do everything smoothly with your high talent, I tell you, Susan's death is also related to you!" Kester grabbed Fink by the shoulders and pushed him hard, pushing Fink back a few steps and hitting the wall.

Gray, who was on the side, was about to stop the fight, but when he stretched out his hand, he saw Kester quietly gesturing at him, so he didn't stop it.

"What the hell?" Fink roared, "Susan, she's not dead, she's not dead!" ”

Kester punched Fink again mercilessly, this punch hit Fink in the middle of Fink's stomach, and Fink suddenly bowed up like a shrimp: "If you are a little stronger, if you have a ninth order, you can play a vital role in the final battle, we don't have to die so many people, with your talent, as long as you pay more when you practiced before, this can be done!" ”

"What's the use of doing it!" Fink was worthy of an eighth-order strength, he quickly endured the pain, and turned around and kicked Kester to the ground. That's not all, before Kester could get back up in a hurry, Fink pounced, pressed Kester's hands, and punched Kester on the left cheek: "It's done, Susan can't come back..."

"You're giving me some gas!" Kester rolled over and pressed Fink under him, slammed Fink's back to the ground, and said viciously, "Crying with an egg?" If you have the strength of the Ninth Order, as long as you can help us keep Sue from being rescued by the Shadow Church, we may still have a chance to restore Susan's soul, and no matter how bad it is, we can go to the temple and turn her back to her current state. Even if you are only of the eighth order, you are capable enough to cooperate with us to stop the black-robed old man and ask about the whereabouts of the Shadow Church through his mouth. And what were you doing then? Dig up the corpse and cry your nose! What about your sanity? Have they all been eaten by dogs?! ”

Fink looked up and struck Kester's nose with his forehead, shoving Kester away as he covered his nose, his eyes flushed and he yelled, "You're right!" Have you ever seen your loved one lose his breath in front of you? Do you know how it felt like to be in turmoil? How do you keep me sane? You say! ”

Kester was silent for a moment with his head down, whether it was from a sore nose or from contemplation. Just when Gray thought the situation was going to be cold, Kester raised his head again, and what was a little different from the beginning was that his eyes seemed to burst out with a raging fire: "Fink, you don't know me too well. Yes, there's no way a guy like you would have experienced that. I have seen my father, my brother, and my sister leave me forever. The enemy is so close, but I don't have the slightest ability to take revenge, so I can only endure and be angry alone. How can you possibly understand this feeling! ”

Gray and Fink were stunned! Kester has always been a mystery in their eyes. Although this young man of unknown origin has repeatedly been entangled with the Amethyst Goose since he became a mercenary, they have never had an in-depth understanding of Kester, at most they just think that he is a young man with courage and worthy of deep friendship. None of them could have imagined that under Kester's strong exterior, such a sad past was hidden! What kind of endurance does a 15-year-old boy need to forcibly suppress the boiling hatred in his heart, and the answer is unknown. But there is no doubt that in terms of reason, Fink, who is known as the hope of the amethyst geese, lost a mess in front of Kester!

After a long time, Fink finally came back to his senses, and he whispered: "I'm sorry, Ye Lingyun, it's my fault, I didn't know you had experienced so much before..."

Kester exhaled, "Actually, I was reckless just now, but Fink, although Susan is now in a coma forever, you may still have a way to get her soul back!" ”

"What?! It's true? A glimmer of hope appeared in Fink's eyes.

"If you can capture the Calamity Dragon, maybe by the Quicksand Scales in the Church Capital, I will have a way to restore Susan's soul!" Kester nodded affirmatively, but this matter was about the magic that Ike had taught him, Ike had already returned to the underworld, and Kester really didn't want to talk about him again.

Fink took a deep breath: "Although such a thing is unheard of, but, just at you Ye Lingyun, I believe you!" ”

"So, you must be excited, the premise of all this is to arrest the escaped disaster demon dragon!" Kester encouraged.

Fink nodded firmly, "Hmm! I'll definitely be able to! But..."

"But what?" Kester wondered.

"You kid was too ruthless just now!" Fink rubbed his shoulder.

Kester rolled his eyes: "Damn, aren't you too?" ”

"Please, I haven't eaten for so many days, how much is it a sick number?"

"Fuck your sick number!"
