Chapter 21 Separate Actions

It was a sleepless night for Ferne, who had to endure many hardships to finally reunite with Ness, but he only spent a few days with Ness in Tulsa, and then rushed to Canrito, where he finally watched Ness be snatched from his eyes, but there was nothing he could do.

The black-robed mage's words echoed in his mind. "Don't you know the secrets she hides?" What the hell is Ness's secret? Why did the Mage Tower arrest her, and why did these so-called Twilight cults arrest her, why!

Stan, who was in the same room, had fallen into a deep sleep, and the intermittent snoring made it even more difficult for Fern, so he simply got up, put on a thick cloak, and walked out of the room.

Although Fern didn't know what time it was, there was not a single figure in the hallways of the castle, and he could no longer hear anything other than his own footsteps. Fern walked along the walkway, and a terrace appeared at the end of the walkway, the light of the moon shining on the terrace, and the white granite was draped in a layer of silver.

Fern leaned against the wall of the terrace, which was only up to his waist, and he could clearly see the area in the distance that was still lit even in the middle of the night. He knew that it was the densest area of taverns in the city, and that every night a group of drunkards would gather there, and they would stay up all night.

A faint gust of wind blew from the aisle behind him, and Fern turned his head alertly, only to see Jarena approaching quickly with ease of flying. "Please don't fly around the aisle in the middle of the night, the faint of heart will be scared to see it. Fern turned back and continued to look at the lights in the distance.

Jasmine stopped beside Fern and rested her hands on the wall. "If you hadn't come out alone so late, how would I have come?"

"What do you mean? Do you know I left the room?" Fern looked at the archmage suspiciously.

Jamina smiled mysteriously. "Yes, surprised, wasn't it? Me too, I wasn't asleep, Nerfi went to sleep with Ray, I was lying on the bed, thinking, suddenly I felt a burning in my chest, like a fire, and then I felt a force gradually moving away from me, and I followed this force here. ”

Fern stared at Jarena for several seconds, touching his forehead in a bit of confusion. "I don't know what you mean. ”

"Really, don't you really understand?" continued to laugh, and rushed her head forward, glancing downstairs at the garden. "Forget it, today is really not the right day to talk about this, I can understand your current feelings, in order to make you feel better, I think we just need to do our best to find the Hallows now, the Twilight Sect will not do anything to Ness until they get the Hallows. ”

"I understand, thank you. Fern nodded at the archmage. "I'm just wondering why Ness is the target of all of them, and what secrets she's hiding. ”

Morena pursed her lips and spread her hands. "To be honest, although I've read a lot of books, I still don't have a clue, but I think it must have something to do with her being an elemental, but Wallis hasn't had an elemental in hundreds of years, so there's no precedent to refer to. ”

"What an element makes she's just a girl, a girl who should be in fantasy every day, carefree!" Fern had had enough of these so-called nouns. "After rescuing her this time, I must take her away and leave this land of right and wrong, I can't bear her being taken away again, not once!"

Jarena's rosy lips opened slightly, but she hesitated and said nothing.

The next morning, everyone was ready to leave at the gate of the castle, except for Fern and his companions, Magill and ten other knights were also busy checking their equipment and luggage, and the shouts of the knights and the low hum of the horses came and went. Although Fern had not slept all night, except for the dimness of his eyes, his spirits were not bad.

Stan struggled for a moment, then ran up to Fern and bowed his head to him. "Forne, I beg your forgiveness again, this time Nerfie and I went to Threndra, and I will try to inquire about Niss at every chance, even if it costs me my life. ”

Fern looked at his friend in front of him and patted him on the shoulder. "I don't blame you, Stan, the other party has premeditated it, and there is nothing we can do about it. Fern stole a glance behind Stan at Nerfi. "Protect Nerfi, don't let Maurice live up to his promise. ”

Stan was so moved that he almost burst into tears, and couldn't help but reach out his hands and give Fern a powerful hug, and Fern raised his hand to hug his friend back.

Sigmund also appeared in the crowd, and the knights all nodded respectfully to the High Lord, who walked up to Magir. "Knight, take out your sword. ”

Magir fell to one knee, drew his sword from his belt, and raised his hands flat above his head, while the other knights also knelt on one knee and bowed their heads. Sigmund took the knight's sword and placed it on Magill's left shoulder. "Knight of Canrito, Magill Bancroft, I command you to assist Stan in finding the traces of the Holy Seal, and if Fern joins you with the Hallows, then both the Holy Seals and the Hallows will be something you need to protect, and you must protect them with your life before they fall into the wrong hands. ”

Magir replied solemnly and loudly, "I swear in the honor of a knight that I will guard the holy seal and holy artifact with my life until death." ”

Immediately after, the neat voice of the knight behind him sounded, "Rest until death." ”

"Good. Sigmund raised his sword, and Magill and the knights stood up, and the High Lord turned his sword upside down with the hilt facing Magill. "It's all up to you. ”

Magill took the sword and inserted it back into its scabbard. "Your Excellency, please rest assured that we will not fail in our mission.

Sigmund nodded and walked over to Fern and the others, who were standing on the other side. "Be careful along the way, your task is difficult, but remember that Canrito is your strongest backing, and I will do my best to help anyone you need. ”

Everyone nodded and thanked him, and Manfred approached the High Lord. "I'll leave it to you over to Alesia, my lord. ”

Sigmund nodded slightly. "Don't worry, I'm nothing compared to your mission, the king of Alesia has always been known for being reasonable, and I'm sure it won't cause me any difficulties.

Manfred nodded in satisfaction. "Alright, let's go first, Rui, are you ready?" the Great Sage looked behind him.

Rui led his northern horse and slowly leaned over, looking unhappy, but helpless.

Nerfi took the opportunity to lean over to her and whispered, "If Brewster is here, you'll have an excuse not to go to Tempe with the Great Sage." ”

Rui glared at Nerfi fiercely and stood beside the Great Sage. "I'm ready. ”

Manfred held out his hands to the crowd, his voice stirring. "The road ahead is full of dangers, but trust in the strength of yourself and your companions, and do not give up hope, the light will shine on you. ”

"The light shines on all. Almost everyone muttered to themselves, and some of the knights made prayer gestures on their chests.

Manfred and Ray were the first to leave, and Fern noticed that the Great Sage had quietly winked at Morena before leaving, which made his image of the old man a little worse, and Morena carefully examined her luggage as if nothing had happened.

Fern and Morena then leave on their destination for Westwood Forest on the western border of Roanoke, and Stan looks between Jasmine and Fern in worry, and Fern tries to comfort him. "You're still worried about your mission, Stan, the Holy Seal must have been protected by the people of the Mage Tower, and your mission seems to be even more daunting. ”

"I'm not worried about the mission. Stan hesitantly grabs the back of his head, then glances at Jasmine quietly. "I'm worried about you, it's not that I'm thinking, you spent so much time with Quiai last time, and it was no surprise that you had feelings for her, and this time you set out on a journey with Molina, I'm afraid...... You know what I mean. ”

Fern smacked Stan the shoulder, knocking him back several steps. "Mind your own business, especially in the Southern Kingdoms, where the woman who wants to tie you to bed will appear anywhere you can't imagine. ”

Stan looked at Nerfi in a panic, the girl apparently heard Fern's words and raised an eyebrow to look at the two, Stan hurriedly said his final goodbye to Fern, and then hurried back.

After the two groups left, Stan and Nerfi mounted their horses, and after saying goodbye to the High Lord, the knights set off in a neat formation, Stan and Nerfi followed the group, slowly riding towards the south gate.

"May the Seven be with you, Guardians of Wallis. Sigmund silently read as he looked at Stan's departing back.
