Prequel: Superb View of Irushil
"Oh, hello, it's so nice to see you. Have you seen my friend Horace? Shamefully, we were ambushed and then separated...... After that, we didn't see each other. Anri stood in the corner, loss and insecurity taking over her heart.
Even if Ember grabbed her shoulders and said everything would be fine. But she could only feel that her arrival did not give her more to rely on, and it was obvious that all she cared about was Horace. Hum......
Ember raised the long sword in his hand, leaving a back: "I'll find his Anri, trust me." β
Ember fulfilled his promise and was deep in the cavern next to the smoky lake. I'm sorry Anri, I didn't say it was the living Horace, and it's for you......
"Horace, friend? You've had a hard time finding Anli...... Do you hear what you can say? Ah, sorry I forgot you were dumb, hehe. Ember drew his sword and headed straight for the stunned Horace.
Horace suddenly moved, raised the long sword in his hand and slashed at the embers.
Bang! Ember casually whipped Horace's all-out attack to his side, and the sparks flew away in the shallow water.
"You still want to protect Anli with your ability, ha, it's too weak! I only used one hand. Feed! Brother, show me your real skills! β
Horace, who had already been transformed into a living corpse, shook his body visibly when he heard "Anri", as if remembering something, he actually stopped his attack, and the door was wide open.
"Cut, I said you're weak! Don't show your strength yet! Do you want to die? β
Ember "kicked him in the face" of Horace, and the heavily armed Horace smashed into the rock wall like a broken iron bucket, and the sound of the crash echoed throughout the cavern.
"Heh, hahaha. Didn't I tell you, I'm strong! So...... I'm supposed to be guarding Anri! "The embers turned into afterimages, swept through the waves and flew towards Horace, who could climb up." Then, please die! β
Zheng! The sound of the metal grinding strongly, as it cooled, became leisurely upward, and Ember looked up at the top of his head. "Cut, you fell into that Rolling Stone Trap too, so you fell here and died...... Leave Anli behind...... Damn it. β
β¦β¦
Ember failed to fulfill his promise and deceived Anri, even concocting a new lie, telling Anri that perhaps Horace had been waiting in Irushel for a long time.
Ember is like a gifted actor, Anri doesn't suspect him, and even gives him a ring. Oh! Engagement rings?
Ember was as happy as a child with this ugly ring, and he nagged alone with a vicious "big dog" for a long time, and he intermittently said that Anri was so kind and lovely, so perfect.
The poor big dog angrily spat thunder and lightning in all directions, and spun in circles trying to bite the scurrying man, but the ember riding on its head was still talking happily to itself.
"Nope! I don't think you're a big dog, you're a big mouse! You have deceived me, how dare you deceive me! "Ember was moody like a child, and he had had enough.
"So I'm not going to invite you to my wedding with Anri!" With a wave of his hand, the sharp sword slashed off the head of the big mouse, and it didn't even have time to scream.
"Elusir, it's so beautiful...... Ember shook as if ...... Almost a living corpse, a living corpse that has gone crazy.
β¦β¦
In the cold valley of Ilusil, the snowflakes fluttering in the sky are slowly falling. The towering spires of the churches and the rows of houses shimmered with light, and the enchantments that flowed in the sky like aurora apparitions cut it off from the outside world. The crescent moon was hidden behind the clouds, and Elussil was in front of the moon, and everything seemed like a dream.
Ember heard thunderous snoring in the sewers, and if you don't know, you're afraid that you think there is a dragon sleeping here.
Entering a kitchen-like room through the sewers, he finds one of the purposes of his trip, the Onion Knight.
"Oh...... Oh! I'm sorry, but I'm really, and it's not good to doze off and be too warm...... Anyway, it's been a long time since I've seen each other, and it's nice to see each other again. β
The moment Ember saw the onion, it seemed that the whole person had finally come back to his senses, and he shook his mushy head and said, "Oh old friend, I thought that this meeting was to go to the bottom of the sewer well to catch you, and I am really glad to see that you slept well." β
"Hahaha, don't mention it. But I haven't officially thanked you for that incident yet. I, Jack Bardol of Catalina, thank you again! This is a little bit of my heart, please don't shirk it. Onion replied with a hearty laugh.
The onion gave Ember a miracle spell called "Force Burst", and although Ember preferred to believe in the sword in his hand, he happily accepted it.
"By the way, would you like to have a meal together? Jack Baldo's special raw soup is just in the pot. It's not bad for an immortal to imitate someone else once in a while. Let's make a book for this reunion! With that, the onion tossed him a small barrel of wine.
"Wine with raw soup, and this kind of operation?" Ember hadn't drunk soup like a normal person in a long time.
"Hahaha, you'll find out later. Jack's elemental soup, the undead drank it and said it was good! β
Ember said that he would be suspicious, isn't the original vegetarian soup just taking out a few original cans and pouring them into the soup pot to drink, there is a difference?
"May your courage, my sword, and their respective missions, Long may the sunshine! (Be with the sun!) Hahaha! β
"Uh...... sunshineοΌ Ember shouted as she followed the onion's movements.
Knock knock! With the steaming characteristic elements of the soup go down the belly. Ember swears it's the best thing he's ever drunk in his life, no, in all his lives combined!
He was so moved that he cried! I don't know how much time has passed since he came to this world, and I don't know how many years he has gone through in life and death.
He had cursed the damned world for always sinking, like the black, thick, stinking (though invisible) disgusting swamp of the Farran Fortress.
He finally understood that all this was a curse for the undead...... And at this moment, he really felt the rich fragrance that warmed his limbs and bones to the depths of his soul after a long absence! He even felt that this immortal life had been sublimated!
"This ...... How is this done? In this cruel world, there is such a delicious taste! Dude, you've got to show me how to make it! I'm going to definitely share it with Ann...... Anri ...... "Ember finally remembered one of the most important purposes of his trip, but he was silent in his hesitation and struggle.
"Absolutely! But I have one more request, and I hope you don't refuse...... Do you know? Somewhere in this town, Irushir, there is an underground prison that sits in the depths, and it is said that beneath the underground prison sleeps in the capital of sinful karma...... It was the hometown of the lonely giant king, Yum. β
"Commitment is always annoying...... Ah, sorry, the atmosphere is a little heavier. Forehead...... It's pretty heavy. "The onion found the somehow discouraged Ember behind him, could it be that his story was too sad? Oh, but he hasn't told him the whole story yet.
