Chapter Ninety-One: Forward or Stagnant?

"Ray, do you remember that when I was a child, Cassius, you, Joyka, and I lived together in Serre Village, and the four of us caught dragonflies, smoked foxes, and fought mountain battles together; I don't know what happened to you on your own spiritual path, but then we all got back together and fought side by side. Have you forgotten the battle with the necromancer in that abandoned town, the war with the rebellious dark elves in the Underworld, the battle of the trapped beasts in the Tower of Seven Sins, the infighting between the male tribes in the plains of Srancia, the death-and-death battle with the demon Satan Mephistopheles in the Snowy Federation, and the co-life and death in the Sea of Antigorin...... Over the years, no matter how many hardships and dangers, several of us have come step by step, with joy, fear, resentment, and sorrow...... But the only thing you don't have is to give up!" Owen picked Ray up and scolded, "What stupid thing were you talking about? I won't give up on you, your brother Cassius, and Joika, Sophia, and Julian, who admired each other after fighting you, we won't give up on you! Why would you give up on yourself? Why would you give up on us?"

"Owen ......" Ray, who was dumbfounded by questioning, raised his head slightly.

Things in the illusion can be free from normal logic. At this time, Ray is no longer the weak little boy he was in the village of Searle, he has recovered his original adult body, but the clothes he wears are still the tattered old clothes of his childhood.

Since he had grown taller, Owen could no longer lift him up in the air, and Ray's feet could stand on the ground normally, but he didn't let Owen hold his collar's hand, and through eye contact, Ray seemed to be silently suffering Owen's punishment for him.

The pearls that were originally connected into a string were forcibly torn off because of the silk threads, and they were scattered all over the ground.

"Califin, you idiot! idiot! idiot, idiot......"

Princess Monica fell to her knees and cried sadly, her young hands beating Califin. The dignity that was supposed to be unique to the princess no longer exists, and she is just a little girl who has been wronged and vents to her heart's content.

Calivin picked up a pearl on the ground and stared at it for a long time. In his mind, he and Princess Monica were barefoot on the beach half a year ago, picking up bright pearls from pearl oysters, and wearing scattered pearls into a necklace together. And he hung the pearl necklace around Princess Monica's neck, and the innocent smile that the princess showed was even more sketched in his heart.

The scenes of the day kept repeating themselves in Califin's mind. Originally, Calivin's gloomy and low heart faintly felt a hint of sweetness.

"Hee ......"

Without warning, Calivin burst out laughing.

"Huh?"

Hearing Calivin's laughter, Princess Monica also stopped crying, and then she was shocked to realize that Calivan was actually staring at a pearl and giggling.

"Good. Ray, you're finally on your feet, let's go. ”

"Where to go?"

"Leave this chaotic world and return to where we belong. ”

As he spoke, Owen kindly extended his hand to Ray.

Ray reflexively returned the salute to Owen, but his hand was not halfway up and then retracted.

"What are you doing? The Ray I know is not so indecisive. Owen was somewhat unhappy with Ray's performance. But after all, Ray is willing to stand up, which is already a very good progress, and if you push Ray too hard, I am afraid it will backfire. This is when Owen's patience will be tested.

"Owen, I, I'm ......" Ray looked like he wanted to say something.

At this moment, there was a sudden violent tremor, and the entire pure white world was trembling.

"Who is it?"

Owen shouted into the void. He realizes that an outsider has invaded this mysterious space.

Realizing his gaffe, Calivan immediately put away his smile. But this disguise is useless.

But Princess Monica's fleeting smile was also comforting to Princess Monica, because it at least proved that Calivan hadn't really given up on himself.

"Now that you've broken my pearl necklace, you'll have to make another one for me!" Monica pouted, grimacing Calivin.

Galivin, who didn't know why he was carrying a black cauldron, hurriedly confessed: "But the pearl necklace was obviously broken by you." ”

"I don't care! I don't care! I don't care! You broke it, it's you who says it's you!"

Monica plays a girl's unique willfulness and unreasonableness. But Calivin already felt that she was actually coquettish to herself. At the thought of this, Calivan couldn't help but smile again.

Two light laughs instantly dispelled the originally gloomy atmosphere a lot.

"Hey, you two!"

A loud voice came from outside the hallway, which suddenly startled the two children.

The corner where the two of them are located is very secretive, not to mention the teachers who are upright, even those naughty students and children, they don't know much. Maybe it's school time, and there is no one in the hallway, and Monica and Calivan are talking too loudly, alarming a teacher who happens to be passing by.

"Now that everyone has gone to class, what are you doing?" the white-bearded and white-haired teacher shouted at the two children in the corner.

The teacher's voice was not angry, and Calivin was suddenly frightened. In the Military Academy of the Principality of Brayden, which is known for its strict discipline, absenteeism is a very serious matter, and even if you are punished, I am afraid that even Monica will be implicated.

But Monica didn't think much of Calivin. "Let's go!" Monicara took Calivin's hand and rushed out like a gust of wind.

"You ......"

The teacher finally saw who the two bear children were. Isn't that the son of Princess Monica and General Snowton, the Lord Protector? Although the two children have been engaged for a long time, it is too much to be so blatantly absent from school together!

"Monica, where are we going?"

"I don't know!

"But those pearls ......"

"Leave it alone, go back and clean it up!"

Two bear children are running quickly through the stately college aisle.

On this day, for the always unconventional Calivin, he did the boldest thing in his life, and for Monica, it didn't matter where she was going to run with Calivin, she just wanted Calivan to run and no longer confine herself in that dark corner......

The trembling of space stopped, but the pure white world was torn open by a crack.

"To hell...... Kill...... Kill ......"

The cursed man appears in front of Owen and Ray. The bloodshot pupils had been blinded by the flames of hatred, and the armor and weapons that were supposed to shine brightly had dimmed, and the heavy resentment had condensed into a mysterious black mist that enveloped the body.

"Marn, you have come to such a place. Although he was unrecognizable, Owen recognized the identity of the man by his aura.

If Marn was still human and kind despite his murderous scheming, then the man he saw now was nothing more than a puppet driven by hatred and resentment.

"Ray!" Owen turned his head to his friend behind him, "do you want to keep going or do you want to stagnate?" ”

With that, Owen lunged at Marn, who lunged at him with his cursed Blood Pact Dragon Lance......
