Chapter 39: The Temple
The fireplace in the hall was blazing, and a thin layer of mist rose from the windows.
The heat from the flames filled the room with warmth.
In Itnell, though some nobles would rather ask a magician to give a smokeless heating spell or something.
But most people still choose to heat themselves in the most primitive way.
Magic always has a price, and the fireplace is more emotional.
Robin was silent for a moment.
I don't know why, but at this time, he didn't want to leave this place immediately.
Or, to be precise, the question that His Majesty had just thrown out had inspired him.
Is there anything you want to ask me.
In other words, what do you want?
Robin hadn't given it a hard time before that.
If anything......
"If you can, can Your Majesty help me arrange a sophisticated magician, I have some questions I want to ask."
Right.
Robin remembered something very important, he had to send his sister back as soon as possible.
At least something similar has to be found.
But he can't talk about it explicitly, because there's a loophole hereβ
Neither the king, nor the entire Itnell, nor even the priests, did not want him to return to his previous world.
Otherwise, there would be no point in Sayah risking her life to summon him.
And about that, Robin is now thinking about it as well.
If there's really any way to go back.
So what exactly is his choice?
Will you go back with Rowling to repeat the everyday, simple life, or will you stay and save the country while taking the corresponding risks?
Or, according to Robin's idea, it would be perfect to be able to go back and forth between the two worlds if there was a well similar to the well of gods and demons in Inuyasha.
"It's easy." Olivia didn't seem to have any doubts about his motives, "I'll write a letter to Flora, the president of the Magic Society, and ask Jessie to take you to her tomorrow, if you have any magic-related questions, just ask her." β
The King winked at him, lowered his voice and laughed, "You know, she's the best and greatest magical mentor in Itnair. She will patiently answer your magical doubts. β
"Okay. Thank you so much. β
Robin nodded gratefully, but at the same time he remembered another question.
"Your Majesty. Speaking of my instructors......"
β¦β¦
By the time Robin came out of the King's Hall, it was already nightfall.
The bright moon in the sky hangs high, illuminating the earth white.
Jessie opens the carriage and welcomes Robin in.
She clasped her hands to her chest and gently chanted a mantra.
The interior of the carriage immediately became warm like spring.
This caring count dutifully accompanied them.
Walk the last stretch of the road.
The wheels turned, the horses' hooves sounded, and they galloped away in the direction they had come.
Due to the temperature difference.
A thin layer of mist appeared on Jeeki's spectacle lenses.
Yes, she sighed in her heart.
After taking the last leg of the road and returning the Chosen One to the Temple, her mission is complete.
Then you will be able to get rid of the young man in front of you.
The past few days of getting along have made her feel unprecedented fear.
The conversation with Robin was like dealing with a demon.
Jeong-hee only thinks that if she continues like this, she is afraid that one day she will be driven crazy by the feeling of being terrified and walking on thin ice.
She is like a sheep serving a lion.
There is a danger of being eaten at any time.
The point is, the feeling is so subtle that she has to say a greeting before she eats it, and please enjoy your meal.
Fortunately......
This is coming to an end.
Just go back to the temple.
"So, Lord Robin, your conversation with Your Majesty was quite pleasant, right?" Jeeki dutifully does her job perfectly.
This is also her long-standing life credo.
Strive for perfection.
This is also the reason why Jeong-hee was able to get a quick promotion and the trust of His Majesty the King.
In anyone's opinion, this little girl, at the age of 22, has already received the title of earl, and her future prospects are simply limitless.
There are even many people who compare her with the current Prime Minister Dilan, believing that she will become his successor in the future and the best choice for the next prime minister.
This young girl has too much luck and enough strength, and all she lacks now is time.
Yes.
Time.
The wheels were speeding down the King's Road, and in an instant they had left the King's District and slowly entered the Temple District.
The street lights around were lit up.
Inside burns the ever-bright lamp oil made in the alchemy workshop.
Bright.
Bright.
It burns in the air with a good smell.
In Robin's line of sight, he couldn't catch the slightest shadow of the temple.
In other words, beyond the range illuminated by the ever-bright lights, there was darkness.
Especially in the direction of the temple, there is a huge shadow.
It's a particularly strange feeling.
They were obviously walking uphill, and it stands to reason that the temple should be imposing, no less than the king's castle, and in any case, they should see at least half of the bricks, or a roof, or something.
No.
Except for the endless dark sky.
Nothing.
As the terrain climbed, this strange feeling intensified.
Over Robin's head, the shadows of the trees flew by.
He heard a loud wind.
To be precise, the sound of the wind blowing the leaves.
"Brother, look!"
It was at this moment that Rowling's exclamation sounded in her ears.
Robin leaned his face close to the window, then his eyes widened in surprise.
As the carriage turned, it was as if a whole new world appeared in their eyesβ
Those ever-bright lights continued one after another, paving a crooked road.
To be precise, it's like two long, shiny lines that go all the way forward and then wind upwards.
They swirled upwards in Robin's eyes, circling high into the air.
It's like a giant spiral.
Reverse spiral.
intertwined, erected on the earth.
Around the central spiral pillar of light, there are many discs made of everlasting lanterns.
They overlap each other, layer upon layer, gradually upwards.
Bottom-up, tapering down.
There is a clear gap between them.
It's likeβ
"A tree." Robin finally realized what it was, and the horror in his heart was even greater.
"Yes." Jiexi laughed, "As you can see, that's the miraculous creation of the Great God of Life that we live onβ
The Tree of Life. β
It was at this moment that a gust of wind blew by.
It set off a magnificent corner of the sky in Robin's heart.
He never imagined that the Tree of Life would be like thisβ
Grand.
That feeling of obscuring the sky.
Robin suddenly remembered what the lush jungle he had seen outside of Haoyue City before came from the city walls.
"The Tree of Life, a gift from the God of Life, has been rooted here since the birth of Itnell, oh no," Jess corrected, "since there have been humans. β
She raised her finger and led everyone's gaze, "And the whole temple is built on the tree of life." β
The whole temple?
Robin was speechless in astonishment.
What kind of work is it that can bring the building and the tree together.
"It's too late for us to get the full picture." There was a hint of regret in Jiexi's tone, "Wait until tomorrow morning, when the sun is shining, if you can go to the Star Fort built by King Fay Rose in the Sky Cliff, then you will probably be able to see the whole picture of the Sacred Tree." β
"Fay Rose? It's a familiar name......" Robin couldn't remember where he'd heard it for a moment.
"You don't know her name," Jiexi smiled lightly, "She's a stain on the history of the Rus' dynasty, notorious, and she didn't even get into the king's castle after her death." β
That's when Robin suddenly remembered.
Earlier in the King's Hall, King Olivia introduced him to Fay Ross, the king of the Rus' dynasty, nicknamed the Beheader.
"King Fei was greedy for pleasure all his life, expanded the Rus Castle to the magnificence it sees now, and then for pleasure, he requisitioned manpower to build the supreme sky cliff and built the Star Castle on it. Later, she became most notorious for the Fei Canal that she had recruited hundreds of thousands of people to build through the east and west of Itnell. In this process, I don't know how many people died of exhaustion and disease, and how many families were torn apart......"
There was a hint of sadness in Jiexi's eyes.
A hint of anger.
No wonder......
It was hard for Robin to imagine what kind of manpower it would take to build a cliff as high as the giant tree of life at the end of the spectrum.
At the same time, the Fei Canal ......
Should we say that history is always strikingly similar?
It reminded him of a certain II.
β¦β¦
The carriage climbed as the carriage climbed, and Gail's happy laughter sounded out of the window.
Robin was infected, and a smile on her face that she hadn't seen in a long time.
He saw Gail's gaze rise, and then his lips opened slightly.
Robin read out what she had just said, it was-
"I'm home."
Yes.
Went home.
For Gail, the temple is where she grew up for sixteen years.
The carriage gradually climbed upwards around it, and Robin saw that in the bright light, the inner circle was a large barbed wire.
It is made of a large metal structure, and the supports on both sides have been sliding diagonally into the depths of darkness.
Faintly connected to a nearby massive mountain.
This advanced casting process has surpassed Robin's imagination......
He didn't even understand how the roads spiraled upwards.
It stands to reason that the masonry and earth underneath should be unusually heavy, and to maintain such a structure, it is necessary to have very complex and advanced construction techniques.
As if to see through Robin's thoughts, Jeongie smiled politely.
"The construction of the temple took thousands of years, and we owe such a great construction to the God of life.
The roads beneath our feet, as well as the other buildings, are actually built on the trees themselves, the Tree of Life itself is exceptionally strong, and the other part is reinforced by the expensive Orion metal provided by the Magic Guild and the Magical Alchemy Workshop. β
Jeeki's face leaned close to the window, and her gaze fell to the ground.
"The avenue leading to the temple beneath our feet is inlaid with Orion gold, and to be precise, it is the web of their interweaving that pulls out the first path, and the stones and dirt that follow are just filling."
I see.
Robin nodded.
It seems that the various technologies in this world are much more advanced than he imagined.
"However, only the temple can afford such an expensive metal, you know......" Jiexi frowned, "Orion Gold is worth twice as much as real gold." β
Hearing this, Robin decided to retract half of his conjecture.
Therefore, technology is always for the rich and powerful.
β¦β¦
I don't know how long it has been, when Robin already felt that they were walking on the air plank road, and the entire Haoyue City was in full view, the carriage finally stopped.
"Lord Robin, we're here." Jiexi's voice rang softly in her ears.
"Oh, okay." Robin was slightly stunned, then followed Rowling out of the carriage.
Outside the car window was the endless night.
The everlasting lamp stretched the shadows of the crowd to the ground.
Being in such a scene is like standing in the air.
Rowling hugged Robin's arm tightly.
To their left, a tall, white building stood.
Only a corner is illuminated in the ever-bright light.
A white hollow door.
The white stone bricks are built in the shape of a spire, and the tall building extends upwards, like a sword in Robin's eyes.
The white staircase is laid upwards with no end in sight.
Robin searched his memory for similar architectural impressions.
Overall, it should be a church that resembles a Gothic building.
However, it is like an exaggerated and sacred castle.
If you want to describe it accurately......
This central staircase, the two-sided building, and the temple that rises step by stepβ
It's like the zodiac sign of Saint Seiya.
Could it be that in the top temple, there will also be an Athena waiting for him?
Robin couldn't help but laugh.
However, he suddenly realized-
To the world, he is the Athena.
The wind whistled everywhere around.
Accompanied by the rhythmic sound of leaves.
It's like a tidal wave.
"Well, I'll send it here." Jiexi bowed slightly and bowed to Robin.
Her fingers circled in an elegant arc in the air before resting on her chest.
"Lord Robin, I look forward to seeing you again in the future."
The corners of Jiexi's mouth curved slightly, and she breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
It's finally a happy end.
Never have to deal with this terrible Chosen One again.
"Yes, Count Jews." Robin smiled politely and took a few steps up.
Then he turned around and waved at Jes.
"See you tomorrow, then."
Tomorrow......
Jiexi looked up sharply, the corners of her mouth twitching.
Her eyes widened, and she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
No.
She instinctively refused.
"Tomorrow...... See? Jeong-hee suppressed her inner turmoil and tried to calm herself.
"yes, I forgot to tell you." Robin smiled faintly, "I successfully got Your Majesty to agree today, and you will be my language teacher and Rowling." β
Rumble!
It was as if a lightning bolt had crossed in the depths of Jiexi's heart, making a loud sound.
scorched her whole body.
She froze in place, for about two seconds.
"Alright, alright, Lord Robin." Jee-hee returned to her usual perfection and smiled softly, "I'll go back and prepare, we'll ......"
She let out a sigh in her heart, then squeezed out a smile, "See you tomorrow." Lord Robin. β
"See you tomorrow."
Robin waved his hand and said goodbye for the last time tonight.
Jiexi bowed slightly and got into the carriage.
He left without looking back.
As the horse's hooves drifted away, the king's guards faded out of Robin's sight.
On the steps of the main gate of the Temple of Eternal Life, there were only five people leftβ
Robin, Rowling, Arce, Kaye and Gail.
and the flashing white lying at Robin's feet, panting with his long tongue outstretched.
"Alright." Gail laughed happily, grasped the hilt of his sword in his right hand, and turned his upper body towards Robin, "Lord Robin, we're back." β
Before Robin could open his mouth, the temple guard turned around and took a few steps forward, stroking the white jade pillar beside the steps with his hand.
"Oh my God, I've never missed being so excited to touch the temple door." Gail laughed excitedly.
"Lord Robin, you're going to love it."
Robin listened to Gail's words, raised his head, looked at the temple gate in front of him in a daze, and nodded with a smile involuntarily.
It was as if a gust of wind was blowing in my heart.
Skimming past the lake at great speed.
Ripples.
Here's where a new beginning begins.
Robin gently grabbed his sister's wrist and walked up the ladder.
β¦β¦
It was at this moment that a dark shadow appeared above them.
Like a nimble cat, the cat jumped over the second gate of the temple.
She coldly raised the longbow in her hand and pulled it back with all her might.
The straight body of the arrow shimmered in the cold wind.
"Be careful!" Kaye let out a loud shout and turned to run.
At the same time, the man gently released the bowstring of his right hand.
"Whoosh" β
The wind is howling.
The cold flickered.
Enlarged in Robin's eyes.
In the next second, a flash of green light shot out from behind his side.
Airplanes......
There was a loud shaking sound in the air, like the cry of the wind.
Two rays of light collided with each other.
Until Arce's weeping wind arrows swept away the opponent's feathered arrows and shattered them.
"Ahh There was a snort of pain coming from the gate.
Bang!
There was a bang.
Kaye grabbed the other man by the collar and jumped from the air, then slammed it to the ground.
It all happened so fast.
Robin had no idea what was going on.
He didn't come to his senses until now.
Is Lao Tzu really Athena?
This hasn't even reached the temple before another assassination is ushered in?!
β¦β¦
"Who are you?! Why assassinate us? β
Kaye spun the dagger in his hand and placed it around the archer's neck.
The blade pushes inward slightly, stabbing out a little blood.
"Ah...... Arce......"
There was a slight fear in the other party's voice, and he didn't dare to move, only two eyes were raised upward, trying to find the figure of the Weeper in the crowd.
"Luba?!" Gail's voice rang out, slightly startled.
The red-haired guard took a few steps forward, crouched on the ground, and pinched his face.
"Don't, be careful...... Luba's small eyes were full of fear, and she called out to Gail in panic, "If you raise it any more, I'll be pierced by a dagger." β
Kaye's dagger had pained her flesh, and she could almost feel her carotid artery throbbing violently at the tip of the knife.
"Hahaha......"
Gail's laughter rang out in the night sky.
"That's the price of your prank."
Practical joke?
Robin looked at Gail in disbelief......
Oh yes, it doesn't seem like it was shot at him.
The last thing he saw was that the arrow was flying towards Arce.
It's just that it frightened him.
"This is the temple guard, my companion, named Luba." Gale turned around and explained to Robin, "She's always wanted to be a powerful archer like the Wind Weepers, so she always sprang out from time to time and attacked Arce unsuspectingly. β
Speaking of this, Gail winked mockingly at Luba on the ground, "though she never succeeded......"
Kaye frowned and took the dagger.
"Who says no?" Luba pouted stubbornly, and her voice gradually became quieter, "Once, I almost shot...... Her hood...... on the feather ......"
"Alright." Arce's cloak brushed against the ground, bringing up a cloud of dust.
"Ahem......"
Luba coughed violently.
The Weeper coldly retracted the longbow and kicked Luba in the right leg with his toes.
"Why don't you apologize to the Chosen One?"
"The Chosen One?" Luba blinked, and suddenly reacted a moment later.
"Oh my God."
She rolled up from the ground with a grunt, then looked up at Robin in disbelief.
muttered to himself, "No wonder...... I said I don't think I saw you guys in the past few days......"
"Luba ......"
Gail crossed his hands on his hips and shook his head helplessly.
She took two steps down the stairs, put her hands in front of Robin, and introduced, "This is the new Chosen One, Robin. β
Then, she pointed her finger at Luba, "This is the Divine Wing Guard, Luba." We're here to keep you safe. β
When Luba heard this, a panic flashed across his face, and he quickly knelt on one knee and put his hand in front of his knee.
"Luba, the Divine Wing Guard, is here for you, Lord Robin."
Speaking of which, the current scene is also quite strange -
Luba knelt on the high steps.
Robin stood below, looking up at her.
It was only now that he could see the other party's appearance clearly.
Luba looked unusually young, her round face had not yet grown, and she was dressed in a white temple guard outfit, silver armor pulled diagonally from her shoulders to her chest.
Her eyes drooped slightly, and she couldn't see the color of her pupils.
Luba has broad lips and a round chin, as well as powerful arms.
The most impressive thing is that her hair-
It is vertically divided into two halves from the middle.
The one on the left has big parted short hair, which shines with a golden sheen under the ever-bright light.
The right side is bare and shiny.
A standard archer head type.
Robin knew that in ancient times, European archers would deliberately remove the hair on the side of their dominant hand in order to prevent their hair from blocking their vision when drawing their bows.
Robin laughed silently at the sight of her boobs.
He remembered what Gale had saidβ
It's because his chest is too big that he can't become a powerful archer like Luba.
Because of Robin's laughter, Luba was dumbfounded.
Especially the way the new Chosen One stared at her breasts......
"Dude, you're."
Robin's voice rang out in his ears.
ββ¦β¦β
Robin's head is full of black lines.
"It's not what you think, is it?"
ββββββββββββββββββββββββββββ
"Lord the Chosen."
It was at this moment that a loud voice came from the stairs above them.
With endless majesty.
interrupted the conversation.
When Robin looked up, on the steps, about the location of the third arch, stood an old man with white hair and a wrinkled face.
She has a slender figure and maintains a good figure even at a very old age.
The man folded his hands to his chest and looked down with his eyes seren.
A pair of blue eyes were darkened by the night.
And in her, Robin felt a different kind of majesty and temperament.
That feeling was very similar to the sense of sacredness that Saiya gave him.
But it's not so kind.
"Mistress Annie." Arce nodded respectfully.
Luba and Gail also stood up straight at the same time and saluted respectfully to each other.
"You don't have to call me an adult." The old man named Anne raised his eyes slightly, and his face was calm, "I'm no longer the chief priest. β
"What?" Gail let out a cry of surprise.
Arce looked at her quizzically.
However, the Weepers understood everything right away.
"I'm sorry." Arce regretted, "I should have made a move sooner. β
Robin listened to their conversation and never said a word.
He originally thought that the old man in front of him was the master of the temple, the one who was called the messenger of the gods.
That doesn't seem to be the case now.
And......
The guilt on Arce's face just now, and the sentence she said, "I should have made a move earlier", seemed to indicate something.
Something happened in the temple during the time he arrived here from Sekorid.
Anne just said that she was no longer the chief priest, why?
Robin felt a little uneasy.
But for a while, I couldn't find the answer.
"You're doing a great job, Arce."
Anne reached out and patted her on the shoulder, "I'm just a servant of the Divine Envoy right now. β
Arce gripped her hand, his fingers straining slightly, "We all do." Who isn't? β
Gail was slightly stunned, and although he wanted to continue to ask, he was stopped by Anne with her hand.
"I have come to meet the Chosen One by order of the Divine Messenger."
She smiled slightly, folded her hands to her chest, and bowed slightly to Robin.
"Please come with me."
β¦β¦
Anne led them into the temple, and Arce and Gale returned to their quarters.
The rest of the group followed her steps up the stairs and onto a wide platform.
In front of them, a huge building stood.
It's like a two-story king's hall.
Or a small palace.
Anne took an oil lamp from a nearby lamppost and continued with the light in her hand.
At the entrance of the temple stood a row of temple guards in full armor and white cloaks.
As she arrived, they all bowed their heads respectfully and politely.
Completely different from Jeong-hee and the king's court ladies -
Anne was utterly silent.
Without saying a word, she led them into the hall of the temple.
Robin looked at the temple with curiosity, comparing it to the King's Hall he had visited todayβ
Both boast large halls.
The shrine is circular.
The King's Hall is square.
On either side of the hall, there are two curved staircases that lead to the second floor.
The stairs are somewhat different in that on their inner side, each has a curved ramp that is close to the side of the handrail.
The armrests also have a distinct double-layer structure.
Underneath the handrail of the staircase, every few columns, there is a grip that protrudes outward.
A flash of confusion flashed in Robin's eyes, not quite understanding what it was for.
Does it prevent small children from falling?
But why make two slopes, wouldn't that make people slide even more?
Robin shook his head and didn't think about it anymore.
He looked around.
The whole hall was filled with a solemn white.
In addition to the green leaves that adorn the walls and staircases......
Oh, no.
Robin reacted immediately, it wasn't decorative, it was a real leaf.
He could clearly see the branches behind him, extending backwards, to unknown places.
On both sides of the hall on the first floor, there is a white wooden door.
Tall light stands are erected all around.
Crystal lamps overhead illuminate the interior in snow-white light.
"I'm sorry, God made your body sick, she didn't have time to wait for you to arrive, so she went to rest."
Anne turned and bowed slightly to the crowd.
It's like a real court lady.
Robin had met Ruby before that.
"So, I'll arrange a room for you to live in, it's not early tonight, please rest early."
After she finished speaking, she turned and went up the stairs on the right.
Anne's gait was light and graceful, and even in leather boots, she only made a faint sound of stepping on the stairs.
They followed Anne closely.
There was a nice smell of wood all around.
Robin couldn't tell what kind of plant it was, but the faint fragrance seemed to sweep away his continuous exhaustion.
β¦β¦
Rowling and Kaye were placed in the room on the west side of the second floor.
Robin was placed in the innermost room on the east side.
After arranging the accommodation of the people, Anne left the place.
Before leaving, Anne closed the door for Robin and whispered, "Lord Robin, it's not early tonight, please rest early." β
Robin's mind was confused.
He turned his head and looked inside.
A large white oak bed takes up most of the space, and ornate carpets cover the room.
There are all kinds of gorgeous European furniture on it -
The leather red sofa, the delicate dressing table, the large round mirror, and the two exquisite bedside tables stand on either side of the queen bed.
On the other side of the room, large floor-to-ceiling windows are covered with white sheer curtains.
The moonlight poured in through the window, smearing a corner of the ground white and shiny.
On the bed, a crisp white pajamas were neatly placed.
Robin gently took off his coat and stepped barefoot on the soft carpet.
It's like a dream.
With a sense of familiarity and detachment.
He changed into new pajamas and stood in front of the windowsill, one hand grasping the curtain, his eyes looking out.
The night is peaceful.
Silence.
Outside, there are only the shadows of the huge trees and the two rows of buildings that descend the stairs from here.
Robin blinked.
The mysterious god envoy is full of endless conjectures.
β¦β¦
That night, Robin didn't sleep well.
Even if the journey is tiring.
Even though the velvet mattresses and quilts are extremely soft and comfortable, they are far from being comparable to the grassy and cave areas and houses on the road.
But for some reason, Robin woke up early.
The first rays of sunlight outside the window came in and illuminated his face.
Robin stretched, getting off the bed and down to the ground.
It was only now that he could see the pattern on the blanket on the ground, which seemed to be the shape of a tree.
The Tree of Life?
Robin smiled slightly, then walked over to the ledge.
He pulled the curtains outward, letting the sunlight pour in from outside.
The light stinged his eyes.
Robin's eyes narrowed slightly.
To this day, he still can't remember what kind of dream he had last night.
Fragmented dreams are less illusory than what they are experiencing now.
Wow.
Robin opened his eyes and let out an exclamation.
Although yesterday I felt as if I knew that the Tree of Life was extremely large, when the daylight came, everything was not as shocking as what I saw in front of meβ
As far as he could see, there were huge trunks of trees stretching outward.
They vary in thickness, the thickest of which towers into the sky, like giant pillars that soar into the sky, and then spread out on them, extending outwards step by step.
As thin as a finger, it coiled in the garden of white platforms below, and some vines were entwined to encircle the city in a huge circle.
In his field of vision, the round sun fell through the gaps in the leaves, illuminating the whole world in a colorful light.
It turns out that this is the tree of life?
The corners of Robin's mouth curved upward, suddenly full of curiosity and excitement about the upcoming mission.
Hey, that's ......
It was at this moment, in Robin's line of sight, that he saw a white figure appear outside the window.
It was a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she couldn't see the other person's face from his point of view, but she had an inexplicable impression of beauty.
The girl had long silver hair, and when she looked up, she could see a quiet smile on her face.
Her white wrist stretched forward, holding some grain in her palm.
Birds flew from all directions and gathered at her feet.
A large golden bird perched on her hand, looking down and pecking at the food in her hand.
Robin looked at her, and his mood inexplicably improved.
The only regret is-
She was in a wheelchair.
It's a pity.
Robin sighed slightly.
I don't know if it's the temple guard's child, or maybe she used to be a temple guard, but her legs became disabled during one mission.
She finished spreading the grain in her hand and pushed her wheelchair to a nearby rock.
Robin noticed that from the crevice above the rock, a faint pale white flower bloomed.
To be exact, a half-opened flower bone.
However, it was clear that the flower was on the high side, and the girl underneath could not reach it even though she had stretched out her arms.
"You wait for me."
Robin stood on the windowsill and said loudly.
The girl was slightly startled and turned around.
She looked up and met Robin's gaze.
It made his heart skip a beat.
It was a beautiful face he had never seen before, with large eyes like leaves, silver pupils, perfect face contours, and bright lips, as if it were a real angel.
Robin squeezed out a smile, then quickly opened the door and ran down the stairs.
He had never been in such a hurry, in such a hurry, in a hurry.
It's like chasing something important.
So much so that he even forgot that he wasn't wearing shoes yet.
The girl just now overlapped with the person who appeared countless times in his dreams.
Including the silver-white hair, and the white robe he was wearing.
Robin's heart was beating violently.
Even though he knew clearly that this girl could not be her, his body ran honestly.
Robin walked through the empty hall, through the white palace doors, turned the corner, and ran towards the east.
In front of him, a white figure appeared.
The girl was sitting in a wheelchair, looking at him with a slight surprise and a shallow smile.
Her face was fair and reddish, like a spirit made of ice and snow.
Robin stopped out of breath.
He clasped his hands on his knees and squeezed out a smile at the other.
"I'll help you."
He took a deep breath and walked under the rock, his gaze resting on the white flower.
Robin stretched out his right hand and gently grasped its stem.
It's cold to get into.
"Don't."
A girl's sweet voice came from behind her.
Crisp psychic.
It's like heaven.
And with a hint of snow as cold.
Robin looked back confusedly.
"If you pick it like this, it will die." The girl shook her head and raised her right hand to Robin.
"Pick me up."
"Hold ......"
Robin was slightly stunned.
Two stripes of crimson appeared on his cheeks.
But the other party looked at him calmly and with wide eyes.
Her eyelashes fluttered, and her eyes were pure.
Like ice and snow.
Robin suddenly remembered that there is no male or female in this world.
This made him irritated.
What the hell are you thinking, Robin, Robin?
He nodded, walked over to the other, and crouched down.
The other man put his arm around Robin's neck.
Then Robin reached into the crook of her leg with both hands and picked her up.
A perfect princess hug.
This girl......
Much lighter than he expected.
He hugged her like a light feather.
Robin's mind couldn't help but give birth to that illusion again-
Could it be that she is really an angel?
The girl lay quietly in the crook of his arm, her hands hooked around his neck, her eyes winking.
"Help me. Close to it. β
Her lips opened slightly, and she spat out a few words faintly.
Robin nodded and carried her to the rock.
The girl hooked one hand around the back of his neck and brought the other hand closer to the flower.
The fingers are white and slender.
It was then that Robin saw a silvery-white light emanating from her palm.
They gradually converge and condense into a drop of crystal clear water on the fingertips.
Then it was touched along her fingertips and slowly flowed into the stamens.
The petals suddenly opened outward, like angelic wings, fluffy, ethereal, and holy.
Robin was dumbfounded.
He had never seen such a magical flower.
I've never seen such magical magic.
"Every life is extremely precious," the other party laughed shallowly.
It's like the magical droplets of water that flowed from her fingertips just now.
A drop of water falls into Robin's heart.
Make a crisp sound.
Then a ripple rippled outward.
