Chapter 39: Return to the Castle

The shore of Ximei Lake is silent at the moment, and people go to the empty building. Rachel stood alone on the edge of the lake, looking at the water that had just dried up, but now it had returned to its original appearance, and the flowers that flourished by the lake were gradually withering, and could no longer emit a trace of magic light. The smell of blood on the shore of the lake has long since dissipated, leaving only the pungency of the plants. Everything has become impossible to catch the slightest trace of the arrival of black magic.

Where are you, Moon? Rachel cried out again and again in her heart. But there was no response from the calm waters, and the fragrance of lilies from Munn could hardly be smelled in the silent night. The breeze fluttered, stirring Rachel's azure magical robes, and the staff behind him emitted an icy blue mist, but nothing could be done.

The thick sorrow was concealed under the majestic and cold handsome countenance, and there was no trace of it.

Thea stood not far away, looking intently at the lover she missed day and night, looking at his lonely silhouette standing in the wind, and her heart couldn't help twitching.

"Is she that important?"

The frustration of this feeling made it difficult for her to show the joy she had just now, but since she had done it, it was impossible to let go......

She dragged her heavy steps and walked towards Rachel with difficulty.

"Let's go back." Sea's breath is like a gossamer. The legs that were injured by the fire mist with his own mana were still burning in sharp pain. This was the fire mist that could have killed Moon with one blow.

Rachel remained motionless, her tall figure shrouded in the moonlight, reflecting a long shadow.

"Rachel Big Brother ......"

"Let's go." This time, Rachel didn't hesitate any longer and turned and walked in the opposite direction. But that hint of indifference also broke the defense line in Thea's heartβ€”he didn't even look at her.

Rachel, who walked out of a few dozen meters in an instant, couldn't bear it after all, although he didn't look back, his voice was unusually clear in the silent night, "I'll take you back with a blink of an eye." ”

Before Thea could react, Rachel's transient technique had already blurted out, and then Thea's legs, which only felt pain, gradually floated up, and instantly snuggled up to Rachel's arms......

The two who returned to Mika City were exhausted. Rachel consumed a huge amount of mana due to the previous use of the blizzard, and then he was anxious due to the disappearance of Moon, and his mental power was rapidly depleted. And Xiya's current lack of energy can naturally only be summarized as self-inflicted.

"Let's go back." Rachel's tone was cold. The destination chosen by the transient technique was Thea's residence.

"Brother Rachel, where are you going?" Thea couldn't help but panic, tonight's situation was completely different from what she expected, and she was afraid of revealing clues.

Rachel looked at the anxious and flustered Thea suspiciously, and finally replied, "You have to go back and have a good rest, the damage of fire magic has always been not to be underestimated." ”

Thea's heart tightened, knowing that if she asked again, she was afraid that she would really lift a stone and shoot herself in the foot, but she also obediently stopped entanglement, turned around and walked towards the residence. But I couldn't help but be afraid.

Rachel, who turned around and disappeared into the shade of the tree, could no longer suppress the impatience and worry in his heart at this time, Zuihou himself pushed Moon away, and the scene of rushing to pursue the black mage was vivid, and remorse made his whole body tremble. He has always been calm, how could he be easily fooled today? He couldn't forgive himself, but he couldn't think of where to go. Is it really like Thea said, leaving with the people of the Hades Formation......

The night is shrouded, and the stars are dotted, but they do not illuminate the long road that comes and goes.

When Rachel appeared at Moon Castle, Vic Hill stopped his way at almost the speed of light. His tense mood reached its peak when he saw Rachel return alone, and the anxiety in his heart finally broke through Zuihou's defenses.

"Where's Moon?" Vic Hill smacked Rachel in the chest.

Rachel retreated in embarrassment, and he was caught defenseless by the punch.

"I ask you what about Moon!" Seeing that he was silent, Wickhill became even more anxious.

"I don't know." Rachel avoided Vichill's gaze, and there was no sparkle in his eyes.

This "I don't know" made Vic Hill angry, and Rachel's nonchalance made him mistakenly think that it was a big mistake for him to hand over Moon.

"And what are you doing here?"

Rachel, who was asked, suddenly came back to his senses, but was speechless. yes, Moon is gone, what is he doing at Moon Castle......

Seeing that Rachel couldn't speak, Vic Hill held back his anger and said, "Enter the house!" ”

For the first time, Rachel obeyed the orders of others, and even lowered his body and silently followed Vic Hill into the golden hall.

In the dead of night, the servants of the castle were asleep, and only the two of them sat on the crystal chairs in the hall, gazing at each other in the darkness.

In the dark hall, only a few wall lamps on the stairs emitted a faint light, but they could not illuminate the deep silhouettes of the two men. However, the magical aura that unconsciously emanated from their bodies was terrifying, and the ice-blue magical light and the dazzling golden holy light complemented each other, illuminating the crystal seats beneath them as dazzling as day.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Vic Hill asked, looking directly at Rachel.

"This is a secret operation ordered by Lord Gramani, and you know that you have no right to intervene."

"Of course I know, but I just want to know where Moon is."

"I'll look for her." Rachel struggled to speak.

"Huh! What a big breath! Since this is Lord Gramani's secret operation, why don't you go to the Bone Killing Palace to find him, what are you doing here? Don't tell me, you're here for Moon! Vic Hill showed no mercy and was full of sarcasm.

Rachel closed her lips and clenched her fists, but she didn't say a word. The guilt unnerved him, and the worry about Moon made it impossible for him to answer Vichill's question.

Suddenly an orange light embraced Rachel, and he felt only a bout of vertigo, followed by a pain and suffocation in his throat that prevented him from breathing. The surging heat of that second made his entire body melt as if it were in warm water, and his mana was also gone. Vic Hill in front of him was still sitting upright in his chair, but the anger in his eyes could not be concealed.

And the magic beam that controls Rachel at this moment is from Vichill, and the high-level paladin's sanctuary dilution is really worthy of its power. But Rachel, who was also powerful and profound, did not resist the dilution of the Sanctuary's attack, he allowed the painful sensation to wander all over his body, but did not struggle and fight back.

Two minutes later, Vic Hill hurriedly retracted the Sanctuary dilution and looked at Rachel in disbelief, who was already in shock.

"What do you want to do!" Wickschel stood up abruptly and stepped forward to support Rachel.

Rachel shook her head weakly, but still didn't respond.

"I think you want to die! Don't you believe I'm going to kill you? Vic Hill's brown eyes seemed to be ignited with mocking rage, and the strength of Rachel's hand increased unconsciously.

Rachel frowned in pain, but as if to say to herself, "If you can find Moon, what does it matter if you kill me." ”

This time, Wick Hill finally stopped doubting.

It was dawn and the morning light pierced the night sky. The two men in Moon Castle still sat next to each other, but they had their own thoughts.

After a long time, Vichir said in a hoarse voice: "You go and rest for a while, and when you are in good spirits, we will go to the Bone Palace together." ”

The two unruly men no longer quarreled for the first time, but it was a tacit understanding.
