Chapter 5: Missing

Sitting down in the hall, Chongyang first explained to Luo Yang the situation of the Three Kingdoms Conference.

Luo Yang was dumbfounded when he heard all kinds of god-level worlds, and he could hardly imagine the magical scene described by Chongyang. This kind of battle stage is really beyond the perception of the permanent people, it is simply incredible.

"That's probably how it 、、、, I lived to the end, I won the victory, and I was able to come back. Chongyang said.

"It's so dangerous, it's really hard for you, third brother. However, you have finally won, won the victory of the Three Kingdoms Conference! One of the six magic elites that is unique in the entire continent is my younger brother!!, the best brother of our Bright family!" Luo Yang said with an extremely fluid expression after exclamation.

Faced with the praise of his relatives, Chongyang was a little embarrassed, and asked about the situation of all parties in Luoyang.

"Miss Helen has been waiting for you, and she will come here every once in a while. Of course she was disappointed without your news, but she was very strong and always tried hard to cheer herself up. ”

"From my point of view, since I don't know anything about you at all, it's really hard to say anything to her, but instead she is comforting me, saying to trust you and not worry too much、、、"

"She talked to Winnie the most besides me. Especially during the time when I was busy opening a trading house, she came here and Winnie was with her. ”

Chongyang listened silently, imagining pictures in his mind. The figure of the elegant and beautiful woman, which had become a little blurred, became clear again and imprinted more deeply in my heart.

"The last time she came, I remember about two weeks ago, she told me that she had something to do and left the imperial capital for a while, but she didn't say where she was going. Luo Yang recalled.

"And 、、、 she wasn't looking very good at the time, and when I asked her what was wrong, she just said that she was a little uncomfortable, and it wasn't a problem. ”

"Helen is not in the imperial capital now?" Chongyang frowned, his hands clenched a little.

If he can't see the beauty, he will inevitably feel lost, and Luo Yang said that the last time he saw Helen, the other party's face was not good, which made him feel worried.

Luo Yang saw his younger brother's lonely and worried expression, and hurriedly comforted him.

"You should talk to Winnie about Miss Helen, and I think Winnie must be able to tell you more. After all, I am a man, and my position is also delicate when your situation is unclear, she may not say something to me, but she may confide in Vinnie、、、" Luo Yang spread his hands and said.

The double yang point indicates understanding.

As soon as Helen saw Vinnie, she became so close to her that it was as if she were a sister to this sweet and lovely little maid. In comparison, Luo Yang, who is the eldest brother of Chongyang, cannot get the treatment of this woman and a woman.

Then, when it comes to Gaiasis and Little Kim.

"Gaia took Xiao Jin out to practice, that is, to hunt demonic beasts or something in some dangerous places closer to the imperial capital. For more than a year, he'd done it every once in a while. At first, he didn't bring Xiaojin with him, but it was because of my proposal that he took Xiaojin out for activities. ”

"Half a year after you were gone, I proposed to Gaia that he follow the caravan through the teleportation array to the north, but he insisted on staying here until you returned. ”

"Speaking of the north、、、 Lieyang City has not encountered any abnormal situation since you left, and the content of the letters from home is normal, but it has been a long time since you went to the conference and no news has been transmitted back, and the family is very worried about you. ”

Regarding the things that Chongyang cares about, Luo Yang explained them one by one.

The brothers who have been reunited after a long absence, sit in the hall and talk for a long time、、、

、、、、、、

After lunch, Chongyang went to the study and met Winnie, who was waiting here.

"Master、、、" The little maid saluted, her face was flushed, and her eyes were shining, which was quite moving.

Chongyang sat behind the desk and looked at the slim young girl with a smile.

"You've grown up a lot and become prettier. ”

Winnie's face suddenly turned like a red cloth, and the deer in her heart was bumping, and her hands were nervously tangled with the hem of her clothes, twisting and pinching, which looked particularly cute.

Chongyang treated this likable girl affectionately with the attitude of a big brother to a little sister, and sat down opposite him with a weak gesture, chatted a few words, and then cut to the topic of Helen.

"When the master was away, Sister Helen came here, and often came into the study, and sat in the master's seat、、、"

With the description of the little maid, Chongyang seemed to be able to see the figure of the person he longed for, and saw her walking slowly through the door, wandering left and right in the study, sitting on a chair with a lonely expression, sometimes reading and flipping books, sometimes looking out the window, and sometimes writing at the desk.

"、、、 is there, and Sister Helen writes in her diary here. Winnie reached out to the drawer to the left of her desk.

Chongyang, who was stirring with the warm current in his chest, opened the drawer and saw a thick blue sheepskin cover.

Taking out the earthen seal and placing it on the table, he gently opened it and saw the familiar beautiful handwriting. The first thing written on it was a date, a month after he had left for the convention.

"Chongyang, it's been a whole month since you left here, but there has been no definite news of the conference, only worrying curiosity and heart-pounding rumors. ”

"I'm so worried about you, and even though I've repeatedly reminded myself to have faith in you, to trust that you'll come back safely, I can't help but wonder if you've been hurt, trapped, or in some kind of unforeseen danger. ”

"To ease this feeling of uneasiness and weakness, and to tell myself that you will definitely come back, I am here, in the room where you like to stay the most, in the seat where you sit most often, to feel your breath and write a journal that will be shown to you in the future. ”

、、、、、、

Turning the pages one by one, Chongyang gradually accepted the mood of the beautiful woman who wrote the words in front of him at that time, the warmth in his heart became more and more full, and his eyes slowly moistened.

For more than a year, the change of spring, summer, autumn and winter, Helen recorded the words she wanted to say to him and the thoughts she wanted to convey to him with warm and elegant brushstrokes. This rich affection transcends time and links each other's souls.

Winnie sat across from her, blinking and staring silently into her master's face. In her heart, the man and woman sitting in the same seat had coincided together.

This scene is so calm and indifferent, but it is so thick and gloomy, it penetrates her soul and makes her unforgettable for the rest of her life.

After turning the last page, Chongyang closed the cover book, and stroked the cover with his big hand, and his heart surged with deep feelings.

Time and space, are the boundaries that ordinary people cannot transcend in their entire lives? Or can they actually break through the barrier with just piety?

At least, here, there is such an ordinary little woman, her love that is not earth-shattering, in a simple way that is not strange and mysterious, conveys the distance beyond time and space.

The sunlight outside the window gradually dimmed, and the black-haired youth and the little maid were silent in the gradually hazy light and shadow, like an oil painting that has been passed down through the ages.

In the evening, several luxury carriages came to Bright's house.

"Chongyang @ Lord Viscount Bright, I'm waiting to welcome you to the palace dinner. ”

This is the celebration banquet of the Three Kingdoms Conference, Chongyang already knew that Maung Anran had this arrangement before returning to the house, and after waiting for the envoy, he took the royal carriage to the palace.

In the car, Chongyang looked out at the night through the car window, and his thoughts were not as calm as his expression.

"The celebration banquet of the Three Kingdoms Conference will be attended by the emperor and many other important figures. In other words, it's not the same as any time you've entered the palace before. This time, you will truly step into the top core of this empire!"

Before parting this morning, Her Royal Highness the Princess's words rang in her ears.

"If all you get before is 'attention', after winning the Tri-National Congress, what you get will be 'communication'. My father, the Emperor, will meet you personally, as will others who side with the royal family, and Prince Dinan, 、、、, may want to see you as well. ”

What would happen to Antonio's father, the most powerful prince in the royal family, if he did show up at the banquet and meet him face-to-face、、、

Chongyang didn't know, so he could only be mentally prepared to the greatest extent.

The carriage travels through the curtain of night to the most magnificent part of the empire, and into the center to the majestic castle.

Chongyang got out of the car and looked up at the central fortress that he had approached for the first time after entering the palace several times, and felt like a giant who proudly dominated the entire empire, scanning the small existence with a condescending gaze.

Immediately the palace maid came out to greet him, and he followed the guide into the castle, along the way, in addition to feeling the solemn atmosphere more strongly than before, the luxurious and noble taste of imperial power, but also saw more strict light and dark guards, and faintly perceived the magic contained in this castle.

I don't know how many times this building has been reinforced, how much high magic has been applied to this building, and how many little-known secrets it has over time.

If it was Chongyang before the conference, it was likely that he would not be able to perceive the mysteries contained in the castle itself, but now that he is at the peak level of the realm level, he is about to step into the threshold of mystery, and after absorbing the heavenly gift, his comprehension of the demon path has been greatly improved, and the level of spiritual communication with heaven and earth has been extremely high, which is much more sensitive than before.

"With such a fortress, I'm afraid even legendary magicians can't help it. He reasoned.

The legendary level is the pinnacle of mages in the mortal world, and the vast majority of mages cannot reach the realm in their lifetime. Even many elites who were once called geniuses when they were young ended up stuck in the level of the Holy Spirit, looking up to the legend and passing away.

However, even legends are omnipotent in the mortal world. Based on his initial impression, Chongyang concluded that these six central fortresses of the palace were difficult for legendary magicians to destroy.
