"Can you see me?" The young man opened his mouth indifferently and jumped down from the window.
"Me!" Els took a step back, stammering nervously, "You, you!" Who are you?! You're a human or a ghost! ”
"Ghosts." Baizhu calmly spoke.
Decades ago, Atractylodes came into the world. After surviving the danger of the initial beast mouth escape, he survived as an ordinary citizen of the Nishizawa Continent.
At that time, he was only fifteen or sixteen years old. is almost identical to his own appearance, with short black hair and similar facial features. His expression was still very indifferent, and he didn't care about anything, but he often rubbed the bead that came with him in a daze.
When I fell asleep that night, the beads were clearly placed in the box at the head of the bed.
――Why did you come here together?
Could it be that the person related to this bead is not Bai Qi but me?
The original name was Cole, Cole Sly. It has the same name as the mermaid body of his mermaid world. The original body seems to be very sensible. The people of the village took pity on him when he was young and orphaned, and took good care of him. Everyone lives close, the people are very good, and the parents are short and warm the hearts of Baizhu. So he was like the original body, helping everyone carry water, choose vegetables, chop wood, and build houses every day. Don't let yourself sit idle.
For Baizhu at this time, this village in a strange world was like a haven for him. He wanted to heal his wounds here, and when time could erase some of the pain, he would go back to see Bai Qi.
- Otherwise, for Bai Qi, who doesn't know anything, he suddenly becomes depressed, and his taste is very uncomfortable.
Feel relieved. He looked at the sky. -- There is a lot of time in this world. I will go back and smile at you again.
He slowly allowed himself to adapt to life here, and his heart slowly became calmer. The rain finally stopped, but there was still a lot of water.
In order not to let yourself forget jì people who should not forget jì. He used a pen to write down everything he had with Bai Qi, from the encounter with each other when he was a child to the hostility when he grew up, and then to the dependence on each other that has been solved now. A small book the size of a palm, which he wrote from beginning to end, carried it with him with the bead. Every morning when I wake up, I take it out and look at it, and then go out to work.
The book is written in Chinese, and no one in this world can understand it. He wasn't worried about losing it or anything.
One day, the kind aunt who lived next door knocked on the door with a smile: "Cole! My lovely little Cole~"
The young man opened the door in a dirty overalls and smiled faintly at the woman, "Aunt Siv, what's the matter?" ”
"Ouch, you're so dirty again!" The woman took out a handkerchief with concern and wiped the dirt on his face, and looked into the room, "I'm helping you Uncle Loew fix things again!" - You're ingenious, but you can't do all the dirty work! She reluctantly straightened Baizhu's collar, "--But what do you see I've brought you today?" ”
She pulled out a piece of brown paper from the bag she was carrying on her arm: "Look! Your exam is clear! ――When you came back three months ago, everyone thought you hadn't been! It turned out that this notice had been pressed in the city for more than 3 months - happy?! Our village is going to have a magician, too! ”
Baizhu took it and said lightly: "Aunt Siv." I didn't want to leave the village. ”
Sif's face suddenly froze, and she asked in great confusion, "Why?!" ”
Baizhu continued to go back to carpentry: "The village is very good. Everybody is fine. ”
The people here are simple, and the neighbors are like a family, and it is a place that can never be warmer.
"No way!" Seve reacted loudly, "You kid! - Don't let the village ruin your future! ”
――From then on, in order to persuade Baizhu to improve, I was admitted to school and had to go to school! Aunt Seve almost mobilized the power of the whole village! Every day, all kinds of uncles, aunts, aunts, uncles, grandparents are bombarded in turn, and the fried atractylodes is almost closed! - But this is not possible, the people in the village are so enthusiastic, that every night when Baizhu is closed, a young and strong young man sits at his door, and urges him to learn magic.
The Nishizawa Io School of Magic is the highest magic school on the continent of Nishizawa. This is like a student from a small mountain village who was admitted to Peking University Tsinghua University, but didn't want to study, it was the people of the village who were anxious!
Atractylodes is helpless. What's in mind about that? I opened the door and said I had figured it out.
On the day of parting, the villagers slaughtered pigs and sheep and held a farewell party, and Baizhu carried a big package out of the village, and the fruits in his arms were not satisfied. But with tears in the eyes of the villagers, it was difficult to refuse. He got into Uncle Jesse's bullock cart and waved goodbye to everyone.
Academy of Magic
Never mind. Perhaps concentrating on his studies would be more distracting to him
***********************************************************
Life at the academy wasn't as good as it could have been. Or rather, it's dark.
Exclusion, bullying, and verbal insults are all considered light. He, a freshman who didn't come from a village in the distant countryside, has simply become the lowest creature of the academy - Baizhu doesn't want to pay attention, but some people are so domineering. He bullies you not because of you, but simply because they want to.
Atractylodes doesn't learn any magic here. Because the teachers also seem to look down on him. He went to the library to read the books himself, and the librarians despised the fact that they would not even let him in the door, and that the soles of his shoes were dirty, and that they were afraid that the floor would be dirty; Or when he lost some books, I don't know if it was stolen by that!
Baizhu is not obvious on the surface, and only regards these bullies as a deaf ear. Words and actions that can hurt people are like nailing a nail in a wooden plank. Atractylodes atractylodes pulled out all the nails as if it didn't matter, but in the end they still left one small hole after another.
I don't know magic, and my internal strength is not enough in front of magic. From time to time, some senior students are famous, and I heard that there is a newcomer from the countryside who has no protection? - Oh! That's a godsend toy!
――If the people with low power in the academy want not to be bullied, then only those who are strong in the academy can become their vassals.
As a villager like Baizhu, the way of becoming a vassal is equivalent to changing from the plaything of many people to the 'plaything' of one or several people.
How could Atractylodes agree!
He was hung upside down by magic and drowned headfirst in the pond; Bound to the wall by a magic circle, a group of people unleash fireballs at him to see who can burn the goose feathers above his head first; Another time, the teacher who taught them a magician self-help class broke his limbs in a cold eye, and asked the students to practice self-help magic. - And he couldn't move at all under the teacher's magic constraints, and he almost fainted in pain.
He thought about going out more than once, but this was the Academy of Magic, and the formation arranged at the courtyard gate only limited him. From top to bottom, the school seems to agree with the identity of his plaything.
Baizhu's eyes became colder and colder. The warmth that finally floated in the village was covered by reality again!
- Time has diluted his sadness, but life here has made the anger in his heart grow heavier and heavier.
Until one day, he was fished out of the water, the weather was a little cold in Weichun, he hugged his arms and shrunk on the ground and trembled, the thin spring shirt was soaked, translucent and clinging to his skin. The boy's hair, which he hadn't cut for a long time, was half long, wet and sticking to his face, coughing water, and I felt pity.
The man who took the lead in bullying him seemed to have just noticed his appearance and narrowed his eyes.
Since then, the pattern of bullying has changed.
It used to be fireballs aimed at his face, but now they were all replaced by wind magic to cut through his clothes. More and more of the man who took the lead began to tease him with words, and after the magic bound him, it was no longer a target-like fireball drop, but a more disgusting shot of water magic, from the mouth, face, to the chest, and under the abdomen. Those people seemed to be getting more and more excited, and Baizhu was hit by the water and closed his eyes, and he couldn't move. The internal force is circulating angrily in the body, and it almost wants to explode!
- No! I can't leave at this time.
His sanity sued him.
If he goes back at this time, his psychological state will only make Bai Qi more worried!
――Didn't you pick up a textbook last time? After enduring this time, I will go back and continue to study on my own.
But he couldn't wait for the time when he succeeded in self-study.
One day, the leader finally broke the last morality in his heart, tied him up, locked the door, and threw him on the bed in his dormitory.
"Follow me. No one bullied you until you graduated! The man's head sniffed and kissed and arched his garments over him.
"Roll" Baizhu's eyes were about to split, and a low and suppressed roar came out of his throat.
It wasn't himself who was holding him down, it was this tight magic. The man looked up in half surprise: "Can you speak?" - Didn't I get this magic right?"
When he raised his eyes, he was suddenly stunned.
The eyes of the young man on the bed were as red as blood, and the magic elements around him were visibly tumbling and tumbling, like a ball of boiling water! The spells that bound him were revealed layer by layer, and the runes appeared, starting from the beginning, collapsing and shattering in circles!
The man had never seen anything like that before! Panicked and took a few steps back. Stick it to the wall!
Baizhu hung his head and sat up from the bed, surrounded by dark elements, and his momentum was amazing.
"Die."
A dark whirlwind struck the person on the other side, wrapping his head around him, and with his screams, his head was completely separated.
Baizhu's eyes were as red as blood, and he looked coldly at the head that fell to the floor. Black Wind helped him break through the door, and he walked out.
Revenge?
Atractylodes asked himself.
No. Stop killing people. He thought
Every qiē here is like a cloud of smoke. Whether it's bullying or magic learning, it's all to be able to go back to see Bai Qi as soon as possible.
The suddenly unknown element of black magic turned into his sword. He looked at it and picked it up. A sword slashed open the magic array at the entrance of the academy, and slowly stepped out with a roaring sound that shook the entire area.
***********************************************************
-- If you change your mood. Let's travel.
He began his life as a traveler throughout the continent. The money I earned along the way was sent back to the village, and I also received a lot of letters from people in the village. He can't go back to reality in this state, and he can't go back to the village. -- He traveled a lot. But no matter where he came, how many people he saved, how many villains he killed, his blood-red eyes never changed back.
Many mercenary groups wanted him to join them, and some powerful human nobles also heard of his power and went to recruit him. He gradually felt irritable.
Finally, he left the troubled humans and made his way to the nearest dwarf's territory. The dwarves were good drinkers, skilled blacksmiths, and loved gold. Baizhu gave the gold he earned as a gift, and he was warmly welcomed when he first arrived. During his stay, he helped the dwarves drive away the beasts, and the dwarves were grateful and brought him food and drink. But one day, when he woke up drunk and found that the sword he was carrying behind him was missing, he got up and took his leave.
Leaving the dwarf's dwelling, he walked on the grassland overgrown with spring grass, and the black elements gathered in all directions, recondensing in front of him into a long sword. He smiled faintly and gently touched the blade.
So he lived a period of rough sleeping, and the small book that recorded him and Bai Qi was about to fall off the pages when he looked through it, so he slaughtered a giant beast, used its belly to make paper, re-transcribed it, and carefully put it into his arms. I burned the original little book.
One day, while traveling, he inadvertently rescued a little girl with rabbit ears and was enthusiastically taken to the territory of the orcs.
Unlike the cramped dwellings of the dwarves, the orc realm is bustling, empty and tall. From time to time, some laughing orcs fight in the streets. Orcs love to wrestle, love to fight, and worship force! The roar of the natural voice is open, and the laughter of several orcs can knock the roof down!
Baizhu's smile gradually increased, and he set up a stall with the little rabbit sister to earn some money in the market.
Greet the passing guests, haggle with the visitors, drink the juice you squeeze out when you are free, and watch the friendly competition between the orcs.
-- His juice is very popular with girls and children. Although orcs generally disdain fruits.
Time passed in the curvature of the corners of his mouth. One day, when he turned over the animal skin again, he suddenly found that he couldn't remember Bai Qi's face.
――Let's go back. It's been a long time.
Baizhu said goodbye to everyone and refused to be retained by everyone.
Back in the human realm, he received numerous high bounties as a swordsman. Since he was not sure whether he would be able to return from suicide, let his death be uncertain. The bounty grew, and the prestige of the swordsman of Cole Slay gradually spread throughout the Nishizawa continent, and his character of not being afraid of death also became his representative. Everyone is speculating about how high this swordsman's level of fighting spirit is! ――How can you do so many dangerous tasks by yourself!!
On this day, Baizhu received a 3S-level bounty task. - I heard that there is a giant fire dragon in the cave of the North Ammons Plains, and it is doing evil in the country. It was the lord of that small city who offered the reward.
Baizhu smiled and walked into the cave with his sword. Sure enough, a fiery dragon fell asleep on the vast gold coin. He poked it with his sword.
The dragon woke up, roaring to bite the humans who had woken him up! Baizhu greeted him with a black sword. - The dragon is a creature that is so powerful that the wind from his breath alone can cut a hole in Baizhu's face. Baizhu laughs weirdly, and the footsteps are brisk to face the battle!
Eventually, the dragon bit off his waist, and the sword in his hand pierced the dragon's head.
It's great.
Baizhu smiled as he felt the arrival of death.
Half of his body slipped from the dragon's mouth and fell to the dirt, the parchment and the small bead rolling down with him, trampled into the mud by the swarms behind him.
People?
These people are following him?
He has weapons in his hands, so why didn't he come to his aid when the dragon was dying just now? - Forget it.
Baizhu's consciousness became more and more blurred, and the world twisted into one, like a swirling lake. Spinning, spinning
Then suddenly sober up!
He saw his miserable body lying in the mud. I saw the ugliness of people scrambling for gold coins. I saw that little orb, shining in the black and dirty mud.
Baizhu crouched down, and a translucent hand passed through the orb.
He put his hands in front of his eyes, staring blankly at their form.
A human was knocked down by a punch and fell in front of him, staggering to his feet to run. The group of people behind him chased after him with hideous faces, passed through Baizhu's body, raised weapons and sharp objects and smashed them at the man's head.
"Hand over the gems !!"
"That's my !!"
The man running in front of him shouted, "I brought down the dragon with the fool and the brave!" Gemstones are mine!! ”
It's unevenly divided
It's ugly.
The black sword that had fallen to the ground visibly dissolved and gathered in his hand again.
Baizhu's eyes were red and his eyes were cold.
Obviously, he can't touch anything, but the sword made of elemental condensation can.
Human blood squirted. Jumping past Baizhu's body and splashing to the ground. Baizhu walked forward, waving the black sword in his hand. A head of black hair starts at the roots and slowly turns white
The noise finally stopped.
Baizhu stopped, and the inexplicable confinement prevented him from taking any further steps.
He looked back. Greedy humans, ferocious beasts, and the blood of creatures paved a blood-stained path from the entrance of the cave.
The wind blew in blood, and Baizhu's white hair fluttered in the wind, and there was not a trace of variegated color in it.
He finally broke down and howled: "Ahh!!!!!!!!!!!!!h ”
Baizhu knelt on the ground.
There's no going back
