"Who are you and why are you doing this? What about Tia? ”

A leisurely voice replied,

"I'm Levantin, or rather, I'm part of Levantin. The Tia you're talking about should be the princess. She's been sent back to her place by the King's Order, and I haven't done anything to her, so you can rest assured that there's nothing wrong with her. ”

"As for what you said about my purpose, I don't have any purpose, I just like to see the essence of human beings, to see your essence clearly."

"You're Levantin's, part? Levantin, that's not"

Alan didn't know when he woke up, and for the familiar name "Levantin", Alan didn't speak, but fell into thought.

"For three hundred years, I have been buried in this pitch black underground. Although, as a sword, I don't have any emotions, but I only desire to be free. So, when Medalil showed up, I finally got a bridge to the outside world, but that's all."

The owner of the voice seemed to be a little lost,

"In exchange for information, I provided divine power to help build an enchantment in the royal city that Medaril hoped to defend, but in the end, the enchantment was not completed, and after Medaril died, I was once again plunged into isolated darkness until you appeared. It's just that when this young man named 'Allen' stepped into the range of my perception, I felt a strange aura in you, which seemed to be an extremely evil aura, but it was not a simple evil aura. Moreover, between this breath, there seems to be a mixture of light and pure power. This power also makes me feel familiar. I am a wishing machine that can grant you any wish. All your desires for what you call 'evil' or 'justice'. I promised Medaril to protect the royal city, and even now that she is gone, I will keep my word. So I have to know what kind of person you are. A true human being can only show his true humanity when faced with the fear of death, so I have arranged this trial for you. But...... I was a bit surprised by the ending, although I appreciate that you have to protect Tia even if you sacrifice yourself in the end. However, the final blow of the Undead Knight, instead of killing you, inspired the sleeping power in you, which surprised me. Named 'Allen', you must recognize who you really are, or you will never know your wishes and fulfill any of your promises. You will end everything in the most painful way and end up losing everything. ”

Alan was silent, his red hair drooping on his forehead at this time, and his eyes could not be seen clearly. This bewildered silence made Ilt, who had always been shrewd and quick-witted, at a loss.

After going through the "Purification Gate", Ilt said the same thing to him and recognized himself. Now, he has to reach out to uncover this mystery and explore the final question. For Tia, for his mother, for the "justice" he insisted on, for every partner who lives on the star of nature. Perhaps, he had to figure everything out! Alan raised his head, pulled the red hair back from his forehead, and said firmly,

"Levantin, the scenes and experiences you set up make me feel familiar, but no matter how hard I try to recall, I can't remember where I met you. You say you haven't been here for three hundred years, but I now think that the only thing that is certain is that you have rejected me. What I want to know is, why did you reject me? But did you give me such a trial? ”

"As I just explained, I am a wish machine and I will not refuse anyone. Even if you want to use me to slaughter the whole city, I can do it for you. Humans, gods, demons, any race, in my eyes, are completely equal. But I must first fulfill the wishes of the people with whom I have made an agreement before. It is the opportunity to provide you with such a trial. Moreover, I am only a part of Levantin, and I have been and the main body of 'Levantin' since I was born, and I have experienced countless histories. Therefore, I know and am very familiar with his sword domain, and I believe that you should have encountered the test of my 'main body', but he only hopes to pursue absolute power, and will not blindly follow it. If you are strong, you will be recognized by Ta, and you will be able to harness Ta, otherwise, you will be taken away from all the power by Ta. Ta is really very willful, and does whatever he wants, but being recognized by Ta is a kind of glory for a strong man. Of course, only if you are strong enough. ”

Levantin replied sincerely.

"I see"

Allen, who is calm on the surface, is actually very surging inside, he knows his fragility, and he also understands what Levantin said may mean to him.

"Just now you were in a near-death state, and you actually began to transform, and that huge undead knight was crushed by your word 'death'. At the very least, you should be stronger than me, more likely to be recognized by 'Levantin' than me. ”

Ilte took the opportunity to interject,

"Me? But I don't remember at all, and besides, I now feel that I am so weak that even Tia cannot fully protect it. ”

Alan hung his head silently, unable to recall any memory of saving Tia.

"You are indeed not strong enough, and the 'subject' will reject you, which should be the best proof of this. However, it seems that when you face a threat of life and death, your hidden power will suddenly burst out and change your destiny. The current 'me' is just a weapon, and I don't care if your power is good or bad. If you don't want this ability to be a threat, I' suggest you find your true self. 'I' time is running out, 'I' can't occupy this body for a long time, finally, Alan, 'I' agree with your performance in the trial, tell 'me' your wish, take 'me' with you, and with the help of 'me', find the real you! ”

After a brief silence, King John's eyes regained their former brightness, but there was a trace of fatigue on his face.

"It seems that I have to serve the old, and if I am occasionally negligent, I will be occupied by the 'machine spirit', and even if I regain my body, I will consume a lot of mana, and I am really old..."

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

Alan and Ilt stepped forward at the same time, knelt down on one knee and saluted, and asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's okay. Alan, I have seen everything you have done, thank you for your desperate efforts to save Tia, and thank you for your efforts for Atynia. Although it was only a trial, I felt your special affection for Tia. As a father, I tried my best to protect her, but in my current capacity, I had to take care of many things. In this regard, I have to say that perhaps you are better suited than us to be by her side and to protect her. ”
