From the first time he set foot on this land, the goal was clear. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The place he came from was so far away that it was like another world. As he once said, the place where he set foot on this land was the end of a dangerous route.

The sea is still an insurmountable gap for everyone here, and even if Qing Xi successfully crossed the sea this time, it was a good time and place, and he was lucky enough to be saved from it. If it weren't for his goal, he would never have chosen such a journey across the moat.

Otherwise, with his identity, he would not have personally embarked on such a dangerous journey, almost alone to another world, to find an ethereal target.

From the very beginning, it was for a very clear goal, the content is clear, but it is difficult to implement, and at the same time it is clear and ethereal. What he needs to do, the main methods have been determined, and there are relatively clear instructions. But this is not enough, what he needs to do, how to do it, what he will get, how to deal with what he encounters, and even what he should do in the end, is a mess.

At the end of the day, the purpose of this trip is not very clear. The immediate reason for his presence here stemmed entirely from a prophecy — yes, a prophecy.

Generally speaking, whether it is east or west, the prophecy is not too long. And accuracy, clarity, and interpretability are all fluctuating, and it's not a particularly reliable thing. Many times it is something similar to charlatanism, a sentence can be interpreted from a different angle, no matter how things develop, it can cut into reality, as if the prediction is extremely accurate.

But this time was different.

At the beginning, what was suddenly placed in front of Qing Xi was a letter.

Not with a more convenient letter paper, but with a roll of quaint bamboo slips. With dense small characters, a lot of content is recorded in detail, with bamboo slips as the carrier, as a very solemn proverb in front of the Qing Ceremony, so that it is difficult for the Qing Ceremony not to pay attention to this prophecy.

Originally, one or two prophecies would not attract too much attention from the Qing rituals, and this kind of thing was often too unreliable. And this time it was not so, this time it was different. It is different from the source of the prophecy, to the means, to the content of the prophecy.

It is difficult for Qing Xi to treat this book of prophecy as an ordinary divination result as usual, it is so comprehensive that it does not want to be a prophecy at all, but more like a volume of nonsense that someone has written and fabricated indiscriminately. Only those words that are false and real still look like prophecy or divination.

It pointed out a direction for Qing Ci, and this direction did not seem easy to follow, but at least it was a direction. Or the last straw.

There is an old saying that a dead horse is a live horse doctor. Although it doesn't sound good, many people think so in their hearts, it's just that it's not easy to say it in front of the Qing Ceremony. This volume of prophecy already seems to be the most reliable method.

So after full preparation, Qing Ci still chose to leave his homeland, crossed the ocean to the other side of this world, and began to look for direction according to an ethereal prophecy.

To be honest, Qing Xi himself didn't think he could make any progress. The decision to come to this place, in large part of the hopeless rescue, is more due to giving yourself a chance to let go. Here he can be a little more comfortable for a while.

A lot of the time, time can smooth out a lot of things. Although there may be trauma that is difficult to heal, if it is to smooth out a person's hope, it will be much easier. As time passes, hope may not have been given up, but it is not as strong as it once was.

Gradually, I got used to the present and accepted the facts.

Qing Xi always felt this way.

What he had said to Carlil and Red Lotus in the carriage was mostly correct, but some of the content had been slightly changed. For example, whether the swordsmith's daughter died or not, and whether she was buried at the end of the route.

If she had really been buried, then Qing Xi wouldn't have to come back to go through this one. No matter what, there is still hope that it can be saved, so I will always refuse to give up.

Or that only Qing Xi has always refused to give up.

He doesn't usually talk much, and when he's not talking, he always seems to be thinking about something. That's right, he always thinks about that person, starting from the little bits and pieces of daily life to the end, all the way to the present.

That is, until he meets an interesting little fox in Icefield City.

- "Rites! Kahlil pricked up her ears and straightened up, "I, Kalil. Andris now asks you for a contract to hire you as my guard for the purpose of finding a home, and the contract fee is ......"

She stretched out her right hand towards Qing Xi, and in her open palm lay a polished shiny copper coin, on which was roughly carved a Tai Chi pattern.

Well......

At first, Qing Xi just thought it was an interesting guy, but it wasn't until he accepted this copper coin that he began to realize that maybe this guy was really the target he had been waiting for since he came here.

Carlil. Andris, a fox demon.

The prophecy does not specify who it will be or where it will be encountered. Qing Xi can only rely on all kinds of flickering words to deduce whether the person he met is the one referred to in the prophecy. The prophecy confirms that only he will meet that person.

Who knows what kind of person he is!

Qing Xi had always thought this way until he received a copper coin from Karil.

Accompanying someone as a bodyguard is not part of the prophecy, but it doesn't matter, it doesn't conflict with the prophecy. Well, in fact, Qing Xi doesn't believe in this kind of ethereal thing so much, in addition to the helplessness of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, there is also a trace of sustenance, and that's it.

But it's an interesting person, Carlil. Andris.

Qing Xi never thought that such a guy who seemed to meet at random would have so many messy skills, as well as various life experiences that seemed complicated, as if no matter how you look at it, it is in line with a magical person or a person who is in line with the prophecy. Except for one thing, Qing Xi is almost certain that it is her.

Karil's personality is not quite right......

Kiyori didn't know what Kahlil or Natalia had experienced in the past, but he knew that this guy had experienced a long, long time before, and that a guy with such a lot of experience could still act like a little girl, which was a bit impossible.

She's a bit of a good person who goes too far, because the toughness that should be there is still a lack of it, which always makes people feel a lot of unreality.

It wasn't until he had followed Karil far enough and spent enough time with him that he was really sure that Karil wasn't pretending to be anything, but that she was such a thing. According to her, she deliberately kept her heart because she didn't want to be a terrible person in front of her family and friends when she finally returned to her home.

She always wanted to go home.

As Kahlil becomes more and more powerful, Kiyoshi becomes more and more convinced that Kahlil is the person he is referring to in his prophecy. In addition to making Qing Ci feel gratified, that feeling also made him feel that the prophecy was actually more accurate than he imagined. He didn't have that much hope, it seemed to him that it was more like Karil's fate had suddenly broken into his own world.

And such a little guy, should he take her away as originally planned?

Gradually, Kiyoshi found that the time he spent reminiscing about the past was getting shorter, and he began to be more willing to observe what was happening now. Observe the little fox next to him, and sometimes he is kind and helps to do something, not so much as a guard, but with a tour.

In the same state, there is also the red lotus, which can be regarded as swimming in a large circle on this continent. At least even if you go back like this, it's not for nothing, and you have such an interesting experience.

The time was set before the Qing Ritual set off, and after sending the Qing Ritual over, he would come back to pick him up one day in the future, and before the time was up, the Qing Ritual could do whatever he wanted, and there was no more to do at all.

The more he spent the day, the more he found it to be very interesting, and he was able to touch Karil's silky hair once in a while, which was really enjoyable to the touch. If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't pull his face, he sometimes wanted to follow the example of Red Lotus, take Karil's big tail and hug it, comb it or something, and fully experience it.

Qing Ci did not give up on the mission he came this time, and he still acted according to the plan he had predicted, both openly and secretly. These actions have very loose conditions, as long as they achieve any goal, Qing Xi can do whatever he wants, and all along, there are no particularly uncoordinated actions, as if everything is hidden under the contract of this copper coin.

And Qing Xi himself gradually confirmed the accuracy of this prophecy, and at the same time, he became more and more sure that Karil. Andris was the one he was looking for.

On the contrary, he began to feel a little unwanted, which made him unexpectedly uncomfortable.

What does he want? Just like when I answered Red Lotus:

"Flesh, Flesh and Spirit"

Qing Xi himself didn't know exactly what the ceremony would be, but it would definitely cause a lot of harm to this person. If you want to get something, you need to have enough chips to exchange. This is all a matter of course, but unfortunately, this person is Carlil. Andris.

Sometimes Qing Xi thought that if he could bring her to Kalil's Glass Sanctuary, maybe he could save her. He was very envious of Matthew, envious that Elaine could be saved like this, and that the two of them could continue to be together.

I am much more miserable than they are......

Kiyori continued to follow Kahlil while proceeding according to the prophecy. Including leaving his side to help resolve the war, it is also because of the contract of homeland. After this contract is completed, it is time of your choice.

Yes, even now, Qing Xi couldn't say whether he was happy or sad, he was wandering in his heart, he had already put down the red lotus, learned the news from the red lotus, and entered the dungeon alone.

It was the plan to choose to continue with this prophecy and bring Karil back...... Live or die.

Or stop here and continue to let the dead live forever.

He sat alone in the dungeon, surrounded by the sleeping Caryl, Angelo, and the Assassin Kohler, with the cups they had just used on the table, as if the three of them were drunk, and the Holy See personnel who helped protect the spells outside, but according to their status, they would not stop them.

Now what?

Kiyori took out the wine bag, poured it into the empty cup, looked at Kaliel's face, and took a few sips quietly.

The whole room flickered with a flickering glow of magic, and until it began to dissipate, Karil would never move, and it would be easy for her to do anything she wanted now.

He sat quietly and sat alone for a long time, until he drank all the wine in his pouch and threw it on the floor.

Then he drew his long sword, raised it high, and raised it in an exaggerated posture that was completely inconsistent with his swordsmanship, and was stunned, and finally slashed down, cutting a cup on the table in half, without hurting the wooden table in the slightest.

Alas......

He breathed a sigh of relief.

He put away his sword and walked out of the room in silence.

He could already imagine that after the incident, after Karil knew everything, he must have asked himself in a seemingly naïve way: "After working hard for so long, why did you give up in the end?" ”

She's bound to ask this kind of nonsense, regardless of whether the question sounds silly and subtle.

But

Yes...... Oh, yes

Why did you give up......

"She probably can't bear the sacrifice of such a girl and live on her own."

Qing Xi did not close the door, but gently patted the mage next to him on the shoulder. (To be continued.) )
