10 Black robes; white robe; emperor

The white light lasted for so long that it made Koran feel like she would never break through the shroud and enter the memory, and from her experience with the Memory Probing Spell Stone, she sensed that something was wrong. Having stayed in the white light for more than three times as long, Kelan did not lose patience, but she still tentatively shouted into the white light:

"You know I'm here, right?"

I don't know if it should be said to be unexpected or reasonable, the response appeared-

"I know." A young woman's voice, gentle and sweet. Kelan wavered slightly, she really didn't expect someone to be able to interfere with the magic cast by the Memory Probing Spell Stone, but she continued to muster up the courage to ask:

"You're the wind chime, aren't you?"

"It's like a fake."

"Then please show up, I want to speak to you directly."

"Why?" The voice of the wind chime asked rhetorically, "Here are my memories, and you're just an intruder." ”

"I did intrude on your memories, but ......," Koran explained sincerely, "I don't use these memories to do bad things to anyone, but I may use them to save more people." ”

The sound of the wind chimes was silent for a while, and nothing appeared in the white light.

"Are you the battlemage friend of Milo Entekoman? Or the people of the Green Dragon Mercenaries? The sound of the wind chimes sounded, and Kelan understood what the wind chimes wanted to ask: to confirm her relationship with the Green Dragon mercenary, because the latter had secretly hunted her down.

"Well, my name is Koran Dutwid, a companion of Milo Entekoman, a battle mage in the Duchy of Komet, an amateur writer, and a former administrator of the Alex City Library." Kelan's tone was even more sincere than just now, in order not to let the wind chime mistakenly think that he was hostile, "I am also a friend of the Green Dragon Mercenary Organization, but I don't know and don't want to intervene in the conflict between you, I just want to know something, that's all, I hope you ......" Before the words were finished, a wind chime in a black robe appeared.

In the memory space illuminated by white light, the black-robed magician and the white-robed battle mage finally met.

"You look so young, Wind Chime." After a brief moment of surprise and silence, Kelan sighed to the other party.

Wind Chime responded to Klan with a smile and said, "Thank you, your appearance also exudes a unique charm, Kran Dutved, in fact, you are currently the second ranked battle mage in the world, right?" ”

"Hey, no, it's contemptible people," Kelan replied gracefully, both of them very polite, "but compared to you standing on the top of the mountain, I'm still in the lowest canyon." Forgive me getting straight to the point, how did you know that I was searching for your memories and interfering with me? Are you interfering with the other three as well? ”

The corners of the wind chime's mouth raised slightly, as if he had guessed that Kelan would ask this question: "When the Green Dragon mercenaries used the memory exploration spell to track me down, I discovered it in time, and in order to prevent them from concocting it later, I cracked this spell, so I can detect and interfere with your entry into my memory, you must know that all magic spells have a magic spell to crack it." ”

"Hey, where there is a spear, there is a shield, you are really amazing." Kelan continued to say the wind chime, and his tone did not hide his appreciation, "So I'm talking to your consciousness?" ”

"That's right, because I'm trapped in the ice crystals, but my consciousness is still there. And the other three you care about, I don't interfere because they are my friends. "But I don't know you, Koran, and I don't know your purpose. I don't know whether to apologize or show off my strength, the wind chime gently bent down and saluted, with an unpredictable smile on his face.

"We want to meet the dragon." Kelan directly stated their purpose, for the wind chime, there is nothing to hide, "We want to get information from the dragon about the 'Curse of the Stars'. ”

"'Curse of the Stars', 'Curse of the Stars'......" Wind Chime muttered twice after hearing the name, "To be honest, I don't really care about this legend, even in my memory there is no more information about this legend, I just know the name." But I have a few very important memories of the dragon, and I think Milo and Erin should have seen them. ”

"Thank you, Wind Chime, even if I don't see it, as long as I can find the dragon, I have no regrets." Kelan said humbly, this is also what she is saying in her heart.

"Don't be so polite, I'm honored to help you, but don't try to use the memory probing spell to enter my consciousness again, I just want to be with my princess quietly and ...... forever," said Wind Chime, her eyes darkened, and she seemed to have lost interest in everything but Lilith.

Kelan understood what the wind chimes meant, bowed, and prepared to leave here, but the wind chimes suddenly spoke: "Please wait a minute, Kelan, I have a very strange memory here, which has been haunting me for many years, and may have some connection with the legend of the 'curse of the stars' that you can probe." ”

The wind chime's words made Kelan overjoyed, and just as she wanted to say something of thanks, the wind chime had already melted into the white light, and Kelan was alone again. But she soon noticed that the white light around her was gradually dissipating, and the floor, furniture, and candlelight ...... The silhouette slowly emerges.

Klan looked around: it was a simply furnished but ornate bedroom, the time was clearly night, and the candle on the desk illuminated a corner of the room, as well as the old man on the bed. The old man slowly opened his eyes, staring at the flickering flames with difficulty, the candle that was about to be extinguished seemed to take away the last breath of the old man, which made the old man feel afraid, he wanted to go and light a candle again, but the appearance of his body was struggling to show the fact that he was not healthy, unable to move, let alone get up, and even life and death were only things that would happen in an instant. Just as the old man was about to give up and light the wax, a beam of fire illuminated the other half of the bedroom—someone lit a new candle, and the old man's gaze stayed on this person, and Kelan also saw the appearance of the comer—it was the wind chime.

After all, it was the memory of the wind chime, and Kelan was not surprised, but what was the identity of the old man on the bed, Kelan was very curious, according to the old man's appearance and the furnishings beside her, she already had a few appropriate guesses in her heart.

"Ah, it's you......" said the old man, seeing the face of the wind chimes, "you're the one next to Lilith...... Sorry, I don't know your name...... Ah, why are you still so young, could it be that I am hallucinating? Ahem...... "The old man coughed lightly twice, slowly returned to lying flat, and looked sideways at the wind chimes.

Feng Chime slowly walked to the side of the bed, looked at the old man on the bed with extremely indifferent eyes, and said coldly, "This is not an illusion, Prince Lane...... You may be addressed as Your Majesty, but I owe allegiance to King Albert, your brother. ”

The stone in Kran's heart fell, and the answer she guessed included Ryan Royer, a former prince who later staged a coup d'état to become King of Spleit.

"Call me whatever you want, I know you hate me......" King Lane's voice was weak, he was very old, "but my brother...... and his children, whom I did not decree to be put to death......"

"I know," Wind Chime recalled King Lane's explanation, "Your Majesty and the Crown Prince were killed by the renegade Praetorian Guard and servants. ”

"Well, I sent someone to investigate later." King Lane nodded and said, "It's also a helpless move to arrest you, but I must take over my brother and keep the country from falling into new chaos...... Alas...... Does the fact that you are here mean that you understand my intentions? ”

"Yes," replied Wind Chime, "I knew you wanted to see us when I learned that you had revoked the warrant against us." Do you have something to say to us? ”

"Yes, of course there is—" King Ryan raised his voice, his voice lengthened, but still weak, "I'm dying, something must be said...... Ahem...... Alas, if I tell the people around me, they will definitely think I'm crazy, but tell you...... Maybe you won't believe it, but I ...... You have to say it so you don't keep being misunderstood......"

Immediately after, Ryan said something that shocked both Wind Chime and Kolan-

"Who would have believed that the coup d'état forty years ago was actually ordered by my brother Albert for me to carry out?"

"Prince?" Wind Chimes couldn't believe her ears, and she hesitated for a moment before asking.

"Yes, yes, my brother asked me to stage a coup d'état in order to provoke contradictions between my own country and neighboring countries...... But he didn't expect to die at the hands of his own people...... And I never wanted to be a king, but now that the matter has come to this, I can only do what I originally wanted......"

King Lane's words obviously made Wind Chime scratch her head, she didn't say anything, but patiently listened to Lane's words.

"My brother, Pala Dax, Umi Stream, House Lyku...... They all thought they could avoid calamity if they weakened themselves, they were too confident......" Ryan said in an almost complaining tone, but Wind Chimes couldn't understand what he was saying, and she had only heard the name of Para Dax in the name he had just mentioned.

"Umi Flow, House Lyku......" Klan repeated silently in her mind, she was no stranger to both names.

The confused wind chime had to ask: "Prince...... I don't know what you're going to say......" But Ryan immediately interrupted her—

"Cursed by the Stars...... Everything we've done is to avoid the curse of the stars......" Ryan said weakly again, his excited complaint draining him a lot, "I want those who have misunderstood me to know...... This coup d'état was not originally my will...... So I revoked the warrant so that I could see you again and forgive me...... Ahem, cough ......" The weak cough became quieter and quieter, and finally said slowly to the wind chime:

"You...... Will you forgive me, an old man full of remorse? ”

Wind Chimes didn't know what to say, but she didn't think King Lane was lying, so she nodded slightly. King Ryan was not comforted by this, and still kept his face strained, staring feebly at the wind chimes, his eyes longing for forgiveness. The wind chime leaned into his ear and said softly:

"Prince, princess—alive."

This sentence was like the sunshine that lifted the dark clouds, illuminating Ryan's dark pupils, his face slowly stretched, his eyes became clear like a deep pool of water, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, as if he wanted to laugh but had no strength, and said softly: "Okay." Finally, King Ryan breathed a sigh of relief and slowly closed his eyes.

The light of the candle is still there, but the dazzling person no longer emits light.

One day in 1284, Ryan Royer, considered the greatest king in the history of the Splett Empire, died in his bedroom, accompanied by only a wanted man who had recently been pardoned. Of course, no one knew that Wind Chimes had ever been here, and her arrival and departure were just as silent.

The white light clouded Kolan's eyes, and the memory ended.

……

"Strange memories, isn't it?" The sound of the wind chimes rang again, and Kelan knew that she had not returned to reality, and as soon as she turned around, the wind chimes stood behind her.

"It's hard to judge," replied Koran, "because I didn't have that many experiences in their entirety, but King Lane's words did make the Battle of the Black Gate and the night of the coup d'état even more confusing, not to mention the mention of two special names......"

"As I said before, I don't care about that." Wind Chime interrupted Klan, "You should leave too, but there's one thing I feel compelled to tell you." ”

"What?" Kelan lifted his spirits and listened.

——

"Melo Entekoman, you may have done something very sinful." Feng Chime said coldly, "I know you want to ask me how I know, do you remember that in Nanchangling, your group waited there in advance before the sand and dust appeared?" Kran nodded, "Lilith was murderous that day, and I was forced to teleport you all out-" Kran was a little surprised, bowed her head in thanks, and the wind chime continued, "There was a terrifying vision in front of Milo, but I felt it in time, otherwise he would have ...... But to my surprise, the object of his fear was a person—a human being. ”

"What does that mean?"

"Explain that he has sinned against this man!" Wind Chime said with a hint of contempt, and Kelan didn't speak, but was obviously a little surprised, "Alright, you should go." Remember, don't bother us anymore. ”

The figure of the wind chime gradually melted into the white light, and Kelan felt that her consciousness began to fly away from here and towards reality......
