Stories, and stories.

After Chen Senran came to this world, it seems that he often encounters people who tell stories to him, and usually the storyteller is the person involved in the story, but he is told as a third party, and after the story, very complicated things usually happen.

This time...... Hope is your own delusion. The little girl in her arms immediately pricked up her ears like a rabbit when she heard the story, so a creature like a woman, no matter how scared she was a moment ago, curiosity can overcome everything.

"Then Mr. Karl, we'd like to hear about it." Chen Senran smiled and nodded at Carl, he really wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this guy who suddenly wanted to tell a story.

Carl seemed to smile, but the laughter was quickly swallowed up by the singing around him, and he thought for a moment with his red wine, probably sorting out his thoughts.

"Speaking of which......" said Karl, looking at the campfire faltering by the growing damp and cold night wind, "I still see it from an old notebook. ”

The singing around them began to rise and fall, mixed with the night wind from the gaps in the fog and invaded into the bones of the people, and it was cold.

Karl had to raise his voice a bit so as not to be drowned out by the singing around him, but his voice was already so low that it was even more difficult to distinguish between the low singing and the low singing. He snorted with some anger, and the singing around him was surprisingly low, and even the night wind was a little lighter.

"Mr. Chen Senran, you've probably heard the story about the adventurers who came from this swamp, right?" Karl nodded with some satisfaction and began to speak, and the singing that had been lowered continued, but it was just right as if it were accompaniment.

"Of course, that story is famous, but it's also surprisingly short, so I don't know much, so are you going to tell the full version of that story?" Chen Senran said as he thought about the impact of Carl's roar just now. Thinking of the previous incident when the fog receded, Carl's relationship with the swamp became more and more ...... Fit.

"Yes, the story I saw was recorded in a dilapidated expedition notebook, which is said to be a story copied by a later generation of explorers who found the diaries of those people when they were exploring here." Carl went on to explain that he seemed to care about the background of the story.

"Really? That must be very exciting. Chen Senran's face showed enough anticipation, the story of the explorers of the year...... Could it be that this guy was one of the explorers back then?

He'd lived long enough. Chen Senran was guessing like this, while analyzing the known information, there was a smell of dead people on his body, and it was related to this swamp. This...... It's really hard to say that he is an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years......

"Back then, a series of strange events began to appear in this swamp after being polluted by rune energy, which attracted the attention of an explorer at the time, so he gathered a group of like-minded friends in the Explorers' Guild to explore here." Karl's story finally gets to the point, "and the angle of this story is recorded from one of the Demacian mages who were gathered together. ”

Mage Demacia...... Well, you don't really want to tell your own story......

"That Demacian mage is called Karthas, a friend of the convener, who specializes in space spells and has a unique insight into runic energy, so he was invited to test the situation in this ghost place, along with his fiancée, Elena, who is also a space mage, and they are very affectionate......"

Cal...... SARS...... Chen Senran couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth, this feeling was ...... It's not good...... Also, I have to say that Carl is really not a storytelling material, obviously about adventure, but he talked about the mage lover Dorn Love for a full ten minutes.

"You have a really good memory." Chen Senran couldn't stand this rhythm a little, and couldn't help but interrupt.

"Oh, sorry, I'm not really good at telling stories." Carl probably realized that he was a little far away, and began to get back to business, "The first few days were quiet, and at that time...... Well, according to the records, the fog here was not so great at that time, at least it could be seen clearly within ten yards. ”

"The examination of Karthus was carried out in an orderly manner, and the cause of some of the great changes in the swamp was initially analyzed, but on the tenth day, the accident happened, by which time they had advanced to the center of the swamp, which was already completely swampy, and it was supposed to be a body of water, but in the very center of the place, the soil appeared strangely dark black, very dry, and there was no sign of life. The expedition was intrigued by the situation, and began to explore the central area...... "Carl paused as he spoke, looking at the campfire with some distraction, wondering if it was a recollection or something else.

"Mr. Karl......" Chen Senran had to speak again, because the little Lori who was aroused by curiosity bit him gently.

"Oh, sorry, I can't remember...... I was thinking......" Carl said the words he had forgotten, and the next sentence was a little unbearable, "but after searching all day and nothing special, everyone was a little disappointed, and decided to rest for one night and continue the next day." It was that night that there was an unexpected ......"

"What accident?" Seeing that Carl was no longer talking, little Anne raised her head a little uncontrollably and muttered quietly.

"Someone died." Carl's hearing was very good, and he glanced at little Anne and gave an answer.

The little girl also happened to see Carl's glance, probably remembering the things in the daytime again, and hurriedly buried her head in Chen Senran's arms again.

"There was a man who died inexplicably, without a single scar on his body, as if his soul had been sucked away, and the only clue was that he was clutching the ground before he died, as if there was something underneath......" Karl took a deep breath and drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp, "The expedition team naturally won't give up, and the leader decided to dig three feet into the ground to see what is underneath." ”

Then the second man died, on the night of the start of the excavation. The death was the same as the first. "This stimulated the people in the expedition, who had been very good friends in the first place, and when they saw their friends die one by one, they began to dig day and night." ”

"But it was like there was no bottom in that place, and after a whole week of digging, there was still nothing to be found, and people were still dying, one a day, never more, never less. There were less than five people left in the expedition, and panic began to grow in the team, and finally someone offered to leave. Carl seems to be completely trapped in the ...... In the story, the eyes hidden under the cloak reveal a compelling light, "The person who proposed it is Karthas, and he doesn't want Elena to die here." But the other three disagreed, and the death continued. ”

"I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, but in the next two days, death still didn't come to Karthas and Elena, and in the end there were only the leaders left, and them." At this point, Karl suddenly pinched the goblet in his hand, as if he was talking about something he couldn't bear and had to vent out, "Karthas proposed to leave the proximity, there was obviously an unknown curse there, but the leader was completely insane, he roared at Karthas with red eyes, either the devil kills me, or I kill the devil, no one wants to leave his companions and leave alone." ”

Karthas was silent about the leader's madness, and he decided to leave quietly with Elena before midnight, though it was very immoral, but ...... Elena can't die. The empty glass in his hand was clattered by Carl's pinch, and it looked like it was about to break, "But...... Just as they were about to leave secretly, they were discovered by the leader, who killed Elena......"

"He actually killed my Elena......" The goblet finally shattered completely, turned into powder and splashed into the fire with a violent explosion, Karl roared hoarsely, and the roar actually broke through the surrounding fog, and the singing around him became more and more sad, "My Elena is dead, and then the leader, there is indeed a curse there, I became the ultimate beneficiary, and I got eternal life, but what is the use, my Elena is dead, She turned into the wind and drifted across every piece of land here, and I could feel every inch of her skin as I touched the earth, my Elena ......"

Karl, no, Karlsas he was completely caught up in his own memories, he kissed the ground under his feet deeply, and told his own story.
