Chapter 8: The Ghost of the Sword
After Maleonn left, Joanna tried to touch the little unicorn, and found that the little unicorn really didn't attack her again, although she looked unhappy, which made Joanna's heart full of doubts in addition to excitement. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She had no idea what was going on with the ghost, who had suddenly appeared and saved herself from under the unicorn's horns, and he had helped her catch it for no apparent reason.
What made Joanna care more was the sentence that the other party said when she saw her for the first time, "Girl, do you want to sign a contract with me to become a hero", did he have any intentions, but I didn't seem to have promised anything, he put so much cost on me, what was going on.
Joanna, who sat on the ground and thought about it for a long time, still didn't figure it out, got up helplessly, patted the little unicorn who was walking next to her, and asked her to find a place to rest during this time, although she didn't know the purpose of the ghost, but Joanna also knew that with her own strength, she really couldn't tame the little unicorn in front of her, and the unicorn was so obedient now, completely because of the existence of the ghost in the broken sword at her waist.
So Joanna didn't do much, just motioned to the little unicorn to find a place to perch on her own, and watched the beautiful figure of the little unicorn disappear into the forest, and Joanna walked to Raphael, who fainted on the ground.
When she gently patted Raphael to wake him up, Joanna felt a tangle in her heart, she didn't know whether she should tell Raphael all this, there were no secrets between her and Raphael since childhood, she was used to telling Raphael everything about herself.
But Joanna hesitated about this matter, because this matter was too unbelievable, Joanna had never heard of a ghost in any weapon, and this ghost would take the initiative to help others, but she had heard of many magic weapons that tempted people to fall.
When she saw Raphael open her eyes in a daze, Joanna gritted her silver teeth and decided to hide the incident first and not tell Raphael.
The first thing Raphael did when he regained consciousness was to take a closer look at Joanna and breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Joanna was not injured, but when he turned his head to see the almost turned grass on the edge of the waterhole, Raphael's mouth opened wide and he couldn't imagine what was happening here.
Joanna's explanation for this was that after Raphael was knocked unconscious, the unicorn did not poison her, but only left after warning her with all his strength on the grass, so she was not hurt.
Although Raphael didn't understand the unicorn's approach, he only thought that the unicorn was still young, so he let Joanna go, but he didn't doubt Joanna's explanation.
After a short rest, Raphael looked up at the sky, and when he realized that it was getting late, he hurried Joanna back to the village.
After returning to the village, the two did not tell anyone about their encounter with the unicorn in the forest, and they only said that the two of them accidentally got it by practicing against each other, which made Joanna's father think that the two worked hard and praised the two.
As night began to fall over the peaceful village, Joanna sat at her desk in her pajamas, staring closely at the broken sword she had placed on Table Mountain.
Looking at the beautiful thorn flower on the hilt of the sword, Joanna did not feel as beautiful and charming as she did when she saw it for the first time, but felt a trace of vigilance and defensiveness.
"Are you still there?"
The girl's tentative voice echoed softly in the room, but no voice answered her, and others might think that the girl was talking to herself.
After a long time, there was still silence in the room, staring at the broken sword without any response, Joanna's brow furrowed deeply, which reminded her of what she had done before, and it was the same scene back then, talking to herself like a fool to a broken sword.
Joanna's brow furrowed slightly, and a hint of uncertainty flashed across her face, thinking that the ghost in the Broken Sword was playing with her.
At this moment, the bright moon outside the window shone into the room through the layers of clouds, and Joanna was surprised to find that the moonlight shining through the window slowly flowed like flowing water, converging on the broken sword on the table.
Looking at the pillar of light like silver, Joanna sat at the table blankly and watched, her heart suddenly moved, could it be that the ghost in the sword during the day was too consumed, so she didn't respond to herself.
That's how it should be, Joanna nodded secretly, and sat at the table watching the broken sword keep absorbing the moonlight shining in from the window, and after sitting next to her for a while, Joanna suddenly found that it seemed that there was a cool feeling in her body, which made her feel very comfortable.
Suspiciously, Joanna glanced around, and was suddenly surprised to find that the broken sword shrouded in the moon pillar emitted a clear white halo, and she was on the edge of this halo, it was because of this halo.
Joanna tried to take a few steps out of the range of the halo, and found that the sensations on her body disappeared immediately, and when she approached the halo, a slight feeling of comfort came from her body, which lifted her spirits.
She didn't understand what was going on, but Joanna's instincts told her that it was good for her body, so she stopped thinking about it and moved her position closer to the Broken Sword in the center of the halo.
After a long while, when the moon outside the window had crept into the middle of the night sky, a tired male voice suddenly sounded in the room, waking up Joanna, who was half asleep.
"Girl, are you calling me......"
After patting her cheek and sobering herself, Joanna concentrated on staring at the broken sword on the table.
"Yes, who are you, and why is it in this broken sword?"
Broken Sword was silent for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer Joanna's question, which made Joanna even more vigilant.
"My name is Zackery." A transparent figure suddenly appeared on the table, and Joanna jumped up from the edge of the table in fright, her whole body tense and guarded.
"Don't be nervous, Joanna, I don't have any strength anymore." Zachary, in fact, is Ma Liang waved his hand weakly, signaling the girl not to be nervous.
When Joanna asked who he was, Ma Liang thought about it for a while and decided to use the name of his character in the game in his previous life, after all, Ma Liang's Chinese name did not fit the style of this world.
Looking at Zachary's body, Joanna found that Zachary's body was indeed much more transparent than what she saw during the day, and it could really be said that there was only a faint outline.
"Then tell me who you are." However, Joanna did not let go of her defensive movements, and stared nervously at Zachary floating in the air.
"As you can see, I'm a ghost, a ghost attached to this broken sword you picked up." Zachary's ethereal figure slowly echoed through the room, but it was obvious that he could hear the weakness of the other party.
"The soul of a warrior who died in battle, unwilling to accept his defeat and clinging to his own weapon."
