"Here are your memories, maybe Tia and I shouldn't have been able to show up, but we happened to touch your body in the dark, maybe it was just an accident."

Allen gives one of the most plausible explanations so far.

"Accident?"

Dusty sat on the ground and stroked her forehead with her hand - the smooth forehead made her hands tremble subconsciously, as if she still couldn't digest the reality.

"Maybe you're right. This is indeed my memory, so your intrusion was an accident. Strangely, though, even after hundreds of years, I don't have a vague memory of this time. It may seem impossible for you to ask me to recall the whole process, but what happened now is exactly what I remember. ”

"If you can't recall everything, how do you know if what's happening now is exactly the same as you remember?"

Tia asked.

"Because if it doesn't match my memory, I, as a carrier of memory, will definitely find something abnormal, but so far everything seems to be very normal, like watching a documentary performed by myself."

"What happened here has to do with holy artifacts, including magic and artifacts. I think we may have come here as a surprise to some people. But for us, it may be a hint or a potential admonition. In short, there must be a reason for our existence here. ”

At this point, Alan seemed to gradually realize that whether it was reality or in this illusory memory, there had always been a force from the demon race interfering with the continent of Alelast. This evil force has been lurking in the mortal world since the beginning of the war between gods and demons. In Dax, the closest place to the Demon Clan's base camp, the act of seizing the holy weapon should also be part of their long plan.

"By the way, Dusty, you said earlier that it would be too late if you didn't think about it, what did you mean?"

Tia couldn't get rid of the expression that Dasty had when he faced Terry before, and the despair and helplessness made Tia very uneasy.

"That's ...... I can't remember... I think I probably forgot something very important. It was my memories that belonged to this body, but with the awakening of the real me, these things that I had already remembered were forgotten again. ”

Dusty bowed his head in frustration,

"I can't remember it at all, but I still have the same fear in my body... Tia! Something terrible is going to happen, it's going to be ...... Damn, why at this time..."

"I think what Dusty forgot might have something to do with Alan."

Ellie, who had been silent, suddenly spoke,

"Dusty had mentioned Alan's name earlier, so that's why I learned your name."

"And what else do I have to say?"

As if grasping a life-saving straw, Dusty squeezed Ellie's hand and asked excitedly.

"No, you just called Allen's name a few times and didn't say anything else."

"Oh..."

Like a deflated ball, Dasty shook his head weakly.

"Dusty, I can't understand what you're saying, aren't you now?"

Ellie asked with a question that was close to her own way of thinking, this kind of question must not have been understood by others, but the three people in front of her understood what Ellie was trying to express.

"Ellie, my dear friend, I'm glad to see you again. You're right, but not entirely true. I'm still me, but the one in this body who is talking to you now is Dusty hundreds of years later, and I and Alan and Tia seem to have been drawn here by some kind of power, and this is our 'past'. ”

Ellie's eyes widened, and it took a long time for her to sigh softly,

"No wonder, since Allen and them appeared, you are like a different person, and you seem to be very mature."

"Was I cute? After going through so many things, it's really hard for us to go back to that lovely state in this world, where only brave and selfish people can live long, isn't it ironic? ”

Dusty looked up at Terry in front of her, and in her mind there would always be such a brave man.

-- It's great to be able to see Master again

While they were researching the time travel with Dusty and Allen, Uncle Terry and the three girls confronted each other again. Led by Doris, the other two girls also seem to rely on amazing perseverance, each supporting their bodies with their swords, and came to Doris's side.

"Stop struggling, I know what your purpose is."

Terry pointed his scabbard at Charlotte, who had passed out at his feet.

"Lord Charlotte! Bastard, what the hell did you do to her?! ”

Margot scolded loudly.

"I should have asked you what you did?!"

Behind her, Ellie's shoulders shook visibly,

- Friend... Is Terry talking about me?

For Ellie, Terry's presence is special. Although Terry is several laps older than Ellie's grandfather, it still doesn't stop her from liking Terry. Speaking of this affection, Ellie herself didn't understand what kind of emotion it was. When she first met Terry, Ellie's affection for Terry was a kind of admiration, and this feeling arose for no reason and at any time, just at a glance, Ellie fell into it. Counting on her fingers, plus this meeting, she and Terry have met twice, and at this moment, hearing the word friend from Terry's mouth, Ellie doesn't know whether to be happy or disappointed.

"Hmph... We didn't want to hurt her life, but she really didn't cooperate, so we had to give her a little bitterness. After all, we are only here for the holy artifact, and if you are willing to hand it over, none of this will happen. ”

Doris's eyes never left Charlotte, and even though she was talking nonsense, her body still didn't dare to get closer.

"I can give Charlotte back to you, but you also have to promise to leave Dax at once."

"Terry......?"

Ellie, apparently unaware of Terry's intention to let them go, looked up at him in amazement.

"BEAR WITH ME, THEY'RE FROM THE NORTHERN ARMY AFTER ALL, AND THE GIRL WHO FAINTED SEEMS TO BE THE ONE FROM THE 'DARKSHADOWS'."

Dusty quickly told Ellie what had happened at the Swordsmith's Foundry. (To be continued.) )
