Act 145 The kingdom where the stars fall on the earth
"In this era, the world presents its shattered destiny to the world, where lies, hopes, truths, beliefs, and deliberately obscured histories are intertwined and complex, making it impossible for mortals to choose. Therefore, it is particularly important to be wrong - and precious. β
This is a very different starry sky from Vaynd, the horizon is like an empty black sphere in the field of vision, the vast and vast starry sky is upside down on this sphere, and the twelve moons are parallel to the sky, with their respective trajectories, forming twelve star fields, in these star fields, the stars shine, but among the stars, some appear brighter, some appear more dim, they are constantly extinguished, and they are constantly lit up, like the lights of the mortal world.
Knudale looked up at the starry sky, her face sparkled, the starlight outlined the arc of her face, ivory skin, and finally indulged in light silver eyes, she looked at the starry sky a little intoxicated, she had traveled abroad all these years, but her appearance had not changed much, she had always fixed the appearance of her thirties, and even had to use spells to make herself look more mature, her long hair was like a silver waterfall, a pair of amethyst earrings were shining by the earlobe, and some fine gold tassels hung under the crystal.
"Teacher." The fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl appeared behind her, then bowed her head deeply and saluted. The girl looks ordinary, and her appearance is not outstanding, but she has a special temperament that makes people feel unpredictable, she is very quiet, this quiet is not indifferent, the girl's eyes that reveal the verdant color are not indifferent, arrogant, some are just quiet, as if always sober and rational, this magnificent starry sky, in her eyes is no different from a stone.
"I told you, you don't have to call me teacher. Sophia, I didn't teach you anything, your legacy didn't come from me, you were born to inherit the name, for generations, without me. You will also become the witch of the thirteenth moon. Knudale turned her head and looked at the little girl with the eyes of an elder, and with that said, she smiled with satisfaction.
Sophia didn't answer, she straightened up and asked, "Teacher, what did you ask me to do?" β
"Are you used to being there?"
"I'm used to it, there's not much difference between Toniguel and Tosankade. Under the influence of the same order, under the protection of the World Tree, the Senia people there have not been greatly affected by the outside world, and I have not encountered any difficulties-"
"I'm not asking you this," Knudale shook his head dissatisfied: "I'm asking, after going to the new environment, does my Sophia have a crush?" β
ββ¦β¦β
The girl snuggled herself sensibly, as if she hadn't heard the question.
"Alright, alright. Don't be angry," Knudale knew in her heart the temperament of her student. He smiled slightly: "I called you here because tonight is particularly important, look at this starry sky, this is probably the last time you will see such a starry sky, Sophia, take a good look." Tonight will probably be the busiest day in the realm of witches since the War of the Sages. Many interests and conspiracies are played out here, the stars are extinguished and illuminated, an old era is gone, and a new era will rise from its ruins. β
"Tides of Magic...... Here we go. Sophia's eyes reflected hundreds of billions of stars, hundreds of billions of stars. It's burning, and it's telling a long story.
The light of the constellation of Sirius began to dim, and the light of the Star of Eloquence was faltering.
Lonely Hill -
Mephistopheles sat on the edge of the bed, he reached out and picked up his saber, holding the scabbard in the air for a half-moment, and then silently put it down. As an ascetic sword master, he does not pursue the luxury of life, the room he asks for has always been small, simple, and there is no superfluous decoration, although he has an exclusive practice room, but he will not live there on weekdays, there is only one bed, a desk, and a chair in his room, he sits on the edge of the bed, and the shadow of the bed extends infinitely in a certain direction, projecting a boundless space, as the four walls of the house, have long disappeared, and he is like sitting in an boundless dark space.
This is the Land of Shadows, the Lonely Hill, the realm of the Golden Sea.
The two figures appeared not far from the Gray Sword Saint, like two clumps of constantly wriggling ink, dripping from mid-air, turning into human forms in the process of dripping, and then revealing their faces and facial features, gradually shedding their colors, forming two people in front of them and one in the back. Mephistopheles looked at the man in front of him, his face sinking like water, in a sense, it was his mortal enemy, the Emperor of the Empire, the silver queen Constance.
But he didn't make a move, because there was another woman standing behind Constance. The woman looked like a noblewoman everywhere in the empire, dressed in a low-cut gown, her hair was coiled high, revealing a dazzling view from neck to chest, and a string of glittering crystal necklaces hung from her swan-like slender neck, so complementing each other that there was not the slightest hint of nouveau riche, as if such a luxurious ornament should be used to embellish her pride and beauty. The woman was extremely tall, even among men, and she was nearly two heads taller than the Silver Queen, like a giantess in comparison.
The giantess held a black object in her hand, and a black liquid smoke continued to flow from it, and the smoke fell from her snow-white palm like a waterfall, merging into the ground, merging into this endless sea of shadows.
It was the most famous magic weapon of the witch clan - the heart of the dark heart, the heart of the lone wolf Jin Hai. In the Battle of Dusk, the thirteenth generation of Desperate Witch killed the lone wolf Jin Hai, and used her heart to make an artifact, which is the Heart of Darkness, relying on the power of this artifact, in a few years, the witches of the Eternal Dark Moon are almost the strongest in the witch kingdom, except for two eras.
In this day and age.
There are three supreme beings in the realm of witches, and this generation of desperate witches can only be ranked second.
"Constance," Mephistopheles had no inclination to move, "you want to die yourself?" β
"In front of me, you don't want to touch my king in the slightest," the giantess behind the Silver Queen spoke, and to her surprise, her voice was beautiful, but full of a strong taste of disdain. Seeing Mephistopheles turn her gaze to herself, the woman introduced herself: "Agatrice, the witch of the eternal moon of darkness, the believer of the lone wolf Golden Sea. β
Mephistopheles didn't have much to do with witches, but he had already learned about them from Brando, and he frowned, "The power of the Extreme Realm." Faintly already have the breath of the Holy Realm? β
The giantess wanted to say something, but Constance had already stretched out a hand to interrupt her, and the supreme of the empire looked at Mephistopheles for a long time and smiled slightly: "Grand Duke, although I have heard of your name for a long time, this is the first time I have seen you in person. I already knew about the feud between you and the Empire, but if it weren't for the message from Anvi, I really wouldn't have known that you were with Daurus's grandson. No wonder he's grown to this point. β
She stretched out her hand again and stopped Mephistopheles from what she wanted to say: "Don't worry, this is the lonely hill, in the realm of witches, this is the world of dreams, you can't kill me, of course I believe that Agatrice can't kill you either, I'm not here to settle the grievances of the empire today." The empire has the interests of the empire, and you have your justice. Who is right and who is wrong, I believe it is not clear with the mouth. β
"So what are you doing here?" Mephistopheles replied indifferently: "Is Her Majesty the Queen too lonely and wants to find someone to talk to, or is she looking for a new lover?" β
Even with the connotation of the Silver Queen, she couldn't help but feel a trace of anger when she heard this, this guy has been wandering outside for too long. I'm afraid that I have forgotten the etiquette of the nobility. She took a breath and replied coldly, "To stop you, of course." β
"Stop me?" The Gray Sword Saint raised his eyebrows: "I see, you guys want to make a move on my students?" β
"The rumored Ash Sword Saint's reaction is not as fast as expected." Agatrice sneered.
Mephistopheles pretended to pat her cheek and sighed, "But I still don't understand." Constance, you are also the master of an empire, it seems that you can't take action against a child yourself, he is just a count of a small country that you don't even look down on, I really can't understand why you are so popular. β
"You don't have to take my words, Mephistopheles, if you want to say that the identity of Darus's grandson, it really doesn't need me to pay so much attention, even if it is the inheritance of the dark dragon, I am not very eager to get it, because I am the dark dragon, the dark dragon is me, and those inheritances are actually just external things to me at this moment."
"My king has come to the world, and he rules over the world, and he knows the worldβ" The witch of the Golden Sea bowed her head deeply, her face full of reverence.
"But today's qiΔ is arranged by someone else," the Silver Queen continued, "She is the master of this kingdom, and I have to carefully consider her opinion. β
"Why, Witch King?"
"For she will let the stars go down and establish a new, earthly kingdom."
"The ideal of a madman." Mephistopheles shook her head disdainfully.
Constance put away the anger on his face and looked up at the starry sky that had spread all over the sky at some point: "This grand scene is rare to see, if you are not in a hurry, Mephistopheles, you might as well sit down with me and see how it is staged." β
Mephistopheles shook his head lightly and stood up from the side of the bed, as soon as he stood up, the dark world beside the bed was naturally dispelled, and a lifeless gray slowly spread in all directions centered on his foothold, he stretched out his hand, and the sword on the bed automatically flew into his palm. "In that case, I can't let my students go unpunished, and I can't say that I have to fight with all my might."
As if she had expected him to say this, Agatrice stepped forward and walked in front of the Silver Queen: "Gray Sword Saint, I have long wanted to see it, I don't know if it is a wasted person." β
Mephistopheles didn't answer, but there was a hint of strangeness on her face.
β¦β¦
The land of the dead, south of Bunosun, a lifeless forest-
Two witches, one old and one young, looked up at the starry sky in front of a log cabin in the forest, and the stars were burning at an accelerated pace, radiating a thousand times the light of normal times, and these lights were intertwined with each other, as if they were staging a fight and war. The gloom of the constellation of Sirius, the Moon of the Sword was shrouded in great shadows, the light of the Teller Star was crumbling, and a meteor streaked across her field, her companion star, which had vanished into the endless darkness.
The starry sky began to appear in small patches of blankness, as if the universe had burned out.
β¦β¦
"Kurul, you are looking for death!" Ann Wei let out a terrible roar like a dying she-wolf. Her face was covered in blood, a scar snaking down her face, taking her an eyeball, and another wound on her chest, where the flesh was now blurred and almost a deep hole remained. The cold corpses of several young witches lay strewn around the tent. The traces of previous battles profoundly altered the region, and the power of magic dissipated in mid-air before plowing a crisscrossing of ravines across the ground.
Suddenly, Anvi burst out laughing like crazy, "Hahaha," she screamed, pointing at Charles, at Babasha and the sugar pot, at Kurul, "you want to put me under house arrest, it's impossible, you don't understand at all, you don't understand what this day means to us." We will wash away the shadows of the past. With the establishment of a true king, a new witch queen is born, just like the coming of the king, this is the establishment of a new kingdom, and the old days will be washed away. β
She inhaled heavily, then with a sacred expression on her face, she looked up at the empty night sky: "Death is not terrible, come on." Death is but a new birth, your merciful lord who borders on ignorance. Never understand this. β
Charles looked at this scene with a somewhat complicated expression, sighed and said, "But you still failed, why should you bother to die." β
"I'm ...... fail," Ann Wei gasped, staring at Kurul behind the crowd with an extremely hateful and complicated gaze - the witch of the Moon of Swords, though unharmed, was as pale as a piece of paper, symbolizing that the witch's mysterious magic was receding from her like a tide. She quickly became senile, frail, and became a real normal person. But even so, Kurul still looked indifferent and didn't look at this side at all, as if this qiΔ was happening in front of him. It's as if it has nothing to do with her.
It was this attitude that made An Wei feel angry: "...... It's because of betrayal, I don't understand what you were fascinated by, in order to destroy my king's plan, you didn't hesitate to use such a forbidden technique, you gave up your identity as a witch of inheritance, Kurul, are you willing? β
Kurul finally turned around.
She looked at her former companion as if she were looking at a dead dog: "It's fate, Anvi." β
Ann Wei's eyes widened.
It seems that he is dead.
The middle-aged witch turned around silently, she turned her back to Charles, and said weakly: "I am no longer a witch, Mr. Charr, from today onwards, the legacy of the Sword Moon Witch will be transferred, and we no longer hold the established trajectory of her destiny, because the Witch Nation has been completely rebuilt. Such battles are not limited to this place, but also in many places, and after today, Bunosson will no longer be the Bunosson of the past. β
She paused for a moment: "Tides of Magic...... It's coming, and I can feel its majestic pressure. β
"Are you leaving, Lady Kurul." Charles was stunned for a moment, and asked.
"I am no longer a witch, no longer fit to remain with the king, I will choose the place where I am buried, alone."
Charles stretched out his hand to stop the woman: "Lady Kurul, since you are no longer a witch, then you no longer need to follow the fate of witches, now you are an ordinary person, a citizen of Eruin, I don't think our lord will let her fend for herself because the people are too old and weak, not to mention that you have also made great achievements for us." β
Kurul was slightly stunned.
She looked up, and the dark gaze in her sunken eyes rested on the young man.
"Anwei is right, your lord's heart is a little too soft."
She said.
In the night sky of Bunosson, the constellation Sirius had burned out, the star of narration was torn apart, and the two stars turned into countless glows scattered in the dark sky, but where the two stars fell, a slender new star was rising.
β¦β¦
That night, in Enlek's Eagle City, a little girl named Mikaya dreamed that she had picked up a golden scepter from a dark forest.
The name of the scepter is Qaath, the ancient rune, supreme.
