Part 2 Epilogue

On December 4, the sun appeared after a long absence.

The bright sun shone softly, and the morning in the town became golden. In the cold winter, the town has already ushered in snowfall, and such warm sunshine is not very common, and it is warm and warm, dispelling the bitter cold that has accumulated for a long time.

Erin lifted the curtains of the kitchen, and the sunlight rushed in, colliding with her, and her whole body seemed to be awakened by the caress of the sun, full of energy, and her mood improved.

Erin put on her apron, which was quite wide, similar to the rattan armor she had been wearing, and she picked up the kitchen utensils to make a cake. The skills learned aboard the Beautiful Starlight were put to use so quickly. She wants to make a special cake and thank the person who has helped her during this time: Milo Entekoman.

For the ingenious Irene, making a cake is not a difficult task, but she is entangled with one question: what is written on the cake?

She once asked Sister Night Sparrow, and the answer she got was "express your most sincere heart", "let him never forget", "the most direct words to the heart" and other words, the simple Irene could not understand the deep meaning of Night Sparrow's words, but she still wrote down the sentence she admired the most, and writing it on the cake was the most suitable and perfect.

When she was done, she smiled and nodded with satisfaction, carefully placed the cake in the gift box, and left the kitchen to fiddle with the handcuff.

The Viscount and Milo discuss recent events in the council chamber, and in the month or so that Melo has been gone, countless news has come from Split, and a large part of it seems extremely strange.

"That's what they call these dark shadows—Shaling." Viscount Lee said, looking out the window and looking out at the full view of Fengxing Town, "Most sightings show that Sand Spirit is often seen on the edge of the desperate desert, attacking people who are accidentally caught in sandstorms, even livestock. ”

"Erin had told her about encounters with these things at the edge of a desperate desert," Milo remembered Irene's words, "and it was later determined that it was puppet magic, but I don't know if it was true." ”

In fact, Milo also remembers that two years ago, when he and the two captains Charlie and Hans came to Fengxing Town, they also encountered an unknown black shadow in a sandstorm and tripped Hans. He also remembered that the soothsayer Domi had said that it was "something that doesn't need to be thought about."

"The message I got was that it was definitely not ordinary golem magic, because there were too many of them. The largest group was about three or four hundred when it was discovered, and who knows if there would be more, anyway, the people of the Demon Court are at a loss now. The Viscount said, looking in the direction of the training ground, which was now empty, "but the sand spirits only appear in places where the sandstorms are filled, and the edges of the desperate desert are generally affected, and I heard that many villages have been evacuated, and the cities are fine...... But there's one thing," he said after a pause, "though I'm not sure, but dust storms are becoming more and more frequent, and there is a tendency to spread to the north of the desperate desert." ”

"Isn't that what we're here?" Milo looked at the map and understood what the viscount was worried about.

"In the near future, it will not affect the safety of Fengxing Town, but the trade route has been forced to suspend a few times. I plan to wait for Parrett to return and build a few makeshift earthen bunkers to the southwest, both for refuge for the caravan and as a fortification against any danger that may come. "The viscount's preparedness and foresight in times of peace made Melo admire from the bottom of his heart.

"After the Djinn crisis, is it the Shaling crisis......" Milo muttered to himself, remembering Domi's prophecy, could a new crisis come?

The Viscount suddenly noticed a man on the training ground - Erin was shooting at a target with a handcuff to test the accuracy and power of the gun.

"Milo," said the Viscount, changing his previous stern tone, lightly, "should you consider starting a family?" ”

"Hmm...... Huh? ”

Night Sparrow and Snow Dog "sneak into" the kitchen and find the cake box that Erin left behind. During the process of making the cake for Erin just now, they had been secretly observing, hoping to see what she had written, but due to the angle, they couldn't see it, so they had to use Erin's absence to find out.

"What did she write?" The snow dog gestures with his hands.

"Just open it and look at it." Nightfinch replied disdainfully.

"It's not good."

"Then I'll come!"

"No, no, let me be the bad guy."

Snow Dog carefully opened the cake box and finally saw the text on it - "Eat me!" ”

The couple's eyes widened, and the unexpected words stimulated their optic nerves.

"This stupid girl, I've seen too many fairy tales!" Nightfinch complains angrily, remembering the book Charlie in Candy Wonderland, which Erin loves.

"How old is she?" The snow dog's gesture seems to be asking a question, but this one is clearly sarcastic.

"Let's change it for her!" Nightsparrow picks up the kitchen utensils and prepares to get started.

The snow dog hurriedly stepped forward to block it, but a scratch had already landed on the cake......

Alas, if you don't want to change it, you have to change it.

In Anseson, the soldiers of the Spellet Army are sharpening their swords, and the British army is no longer afraid, but Sevia is slow to give the order to attack, and many speculate that he is still waiting for more reinforcements to arrive, so that the United Kingdom will completely lose its numerical advantage, so that the victory is guaranteed.

In the castle, Sevia seemed to have recovered from a serious illness, and the young commander, who had just been promoted, took over the position of Risen during his lifetime, but at this time he showed a sad face that was very inappropriate for his age, and compared with the young and arrogant chief staff officer more than a month ago, he seemed to be ten years old.

Savia was still waiting, waiting for someone to make a deal with him, whether it would work out or not—he had seen that an enemy countless times more terrible than the United Kingdom was approaching, and that he had to be fully prepared to confront this enigmatic and terrible enemy, no matter how many people were sacrificed, even if it was his fiancée, his "allegiance" His Majesty the King—he would still carry out his way, and he had no fear.

In the fortress of Windrun Town, Erin quietly asked Milo to her room, and when the latter arrived, Erin presented the cake gift box to Milo and said shyly, "Thank you for taking care of me during this time!" I made this, you can taste it, I hope it is to your taste. ”

Milo smiled and took the gift box, slowly opened it, and when the words on the cake came into view, Milo's smile instantly froze.

"Well, this is ......" Milo was nervous and timid, and couldn't speak.

Strange, Erin stuck her head over the cake and saw a scene she couldn't explain:

The words on the cake are – "I like you!" ”

It must be noted that Erin's screaming technique is very professional and will never be mistaken for a cry for help, and then she stomps her feet in the room, blushing, and tears, repeatedly slapping Milo's chest with her palm, incoherently explaining that she did not write it...... Milo was so frightened that she hurriedly tried to comfort her and calm her down first, but Erin still repeatedly said, "You have to believe me, I didn't write it", and her language revealed full of wrongs and grievances.

Maybe she was tired, Erin finally leaned on Milo in despair, put her head on his chest, wiped her tears on the placket of his clothes, and the scene was so embarrassing that Milo forgot what to say or do. I had to silently pick up the cake and taste it-

"It's delicious! Your craft is so good! Milo excitedly praised, "Look, I ate the words!" ”

Erin finally burst into tears and wiped away her tears.

"It's actually hard for you during this time, but fortunately, we managed to persevere. Let's eat this cake together! Milo suggested.

Erin nodded, took a piece of cake from Milo's hand and put it in her mouth. The sweet and delicious cake made the atmosphere in the room sweet, and the two looked at each other and smiled, sharing this wonderful time.

As she was on her way day and night, she took out a wooden accessory and stroked it—a diamond-shaped frame wrapped around an inscribed circle, like a human eye, but without pupils.

"Where is the truth you want me to seek?" Kelan said to herself as if she was talking to someone, "After a long time of pursuit and exploration, can you find the answer here?" My dear husband, why didn't you leave me in a hurry without explaining this......" After wiping away tears, Kelan put away his accessories and continued his journey south.

Halfway Island stands alone in the wind and waves, and the great black shadow has never set foot here again, and perhaps another loud, long call will guide it over. Soon after, the island will welcome another group of important visitors to unravel more mysteries for our story.

At night, the wind chimes were on top of an ancient building somewhere, and when she looked around, all she could see was an endless desert, countless black shadows moving slowly in the yellow sand......

"Wind Chimes, get ready to start!" A slightly delicate voice came from behind her, and the wind chime turned her head and looked at the person behind her with adoring eyes, showing a happy smile.

With a wave of the wind chime, the black shadow began to move forward, and everywhere it went, the sky was full of sand and dust.

"Target: Windwalk!" A decisive command sounded, and the black shadow quickened his pace......

-- A new crisis is coming.
