Chapter 44: The Soul Dies
Thinking of the dead Irena, Leo was shocked, and the little pride in his heart had long since disappeared.
This world is too terrifying, and before he has fully grown up, even if he has a godhead, he must keep a low profile, otherwise he will only fall to the point of Irena.
The wizard's world is magical, and even if a sea ship breaks a big hole, they quickly patch the hole.
Eventually, they rescued some of the sailors who survived, and the ship was able to move on.
A fiery red sun broke through the fog, and the sky after the storm took on a beautiful turquoise blue, but the sea ship was gloomy.
How many cadets and sailors died in this battle, and on the messy deck, the apprentice wizard was directing the cadets and sailors to throw their bodies into the sea.
Jacques was heartbroken as he hugged Irena's corpse, and Leo whispered to comfort him.
"What are you doing? Hurry up and throw the corpse, there are a lot of places that you need to clean up?"
A wizard apprentice with short red hair said angrily.
"Lord Heller, the deceased is his girlfriend, I don't know if I can give me a little more time. ”
Leo said.
The wizard apprentice seemed to remember Leo, so he nodded, and just said coldly, "Okay, but hurry up." ”
"Thank you, sir. ”
Leo said.
He glanced at Jacques and found that he still looked like he was not giving up, so he could only say patiently: "Jacques, they are no longer patient, people can't be resurrected after death, so let's mourn." ”
"Leo, do you know who attacked us, why did they attack us?"
Jacques asked.
"This ...... I don't know. ”
Leo shook his head decisively and said.
Some things tell him that there is no good, only to add to his troubles.
"I've heard that it was the mermaid royalty who took part in the attack. ”
Jacques said hatefully.
"Even the entire Highland Wizard Alliance combined is no match for the Mermaid Royalty. ”
Leo reminded him.
Jacques' eyes turned red for a moment, "But I always want to try and see if I can avenge her." ”
Leo shook his head, instead of seeking revenge on the mermaid royal family, it was better to find Leonard, the mastermind behind the scenes.
With Jacques's talent, he can become a first-class wizard at most.
Miracles are miraculous because they are almost impossible to happen.
With the trajectory of his normal life, wanting to avenge Irena is just a pipe dream, and it is even very likely that he will forget this bitter unrequited love after a while.
"Hurry up. ”
Leo said.
Jacques nodded, carried her cold corpse to the side of the ship, tied a ballast stone, and threw the body into the sea.
Watching Jacques turn away, Leo's eyes flashed, and his consciousness came to that mysterious space.
There are still two blood moons hanging in the vast sky, but the space is no longer desolate, but filled with an endless sea of flowers.
The sea of flowers is full of all kinds of flowers, not only from this world, but also from the earth in previous lives.
A palace was standing in a sea of flowers, and Leo walked into the palace, and a woman lay on a bed with a pale face.
Jacques would be amazed if he saw her, isn't that Irene the art?
After finding Irena's body, Leo discovers that her soul is still in the body, like a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.
Leo didn't know if there was reincarnation in this world, and where the soul would go after death.
But he subconsciously wanted to do an experiment, that is, whether the space in his eyes could retain her soul, so he sucked her soul in.
"How are you feeling right now?"
Leo asked.
"It felt terrible, my consciousness was getting blurred, I wanted to sleep forever and not wake up, I felt like I might not be able to. ”
Irena sat up and said.
At this time, her face was lazy, with a unique flavor, and she did not have her usual shrewd and capable appearance at all.
"Leo, am I going to die?"
Irena asked, opening her big blue eyes.
Leo nodded, he didn't lie to her.
"It's a shame. ”
She said that it was a pity, but Leo found that she had a relaxed look.
"Ever since Roma's death, I've been under tremendous pressure, and I'm the only hope for the Empire. But I don't have the slightest confidence in Leonard, he's a genius, a real genius. Even among the fifth-level talents, he was so outstanding. I wasn't in the slightest bit sure I could surpass him, but I had to be strong, try to make friends with all kinds of nasty characters, and even use myself as a bargaining chip in exchange for the continuation of the empire. ”
"It makes me hate myself more and more, but I don't have a choice, I have to take on the responsibility of the Imperial legacy. Now that none of this has anything to do with me, I can finally be my true self again. ”
As she spoke, a relieved smile appeared on Irena's face.
"I've always loved flowers since I was a kid and wanted a big garden. But my father was very strict and did not agree to my request at all. But I didn't expect you to realize this wish of mine, and it is such a beautiful sea of flowers, it is the first time I have seen it, it is like a beautiful fairyland. ”
She walked barefoot into the sea of flowers, sniffing the flowers with a look of satisfaction.
"Leo, can you tell me who you are?"
Irena asked, being able to have such a mysterious space, Leo was obviously not an ordinary person.
Leo shook his head firmly.
"You're a ...... person"
Irena looked helpless, but then said: "I don't dare to ask you to help me take revenge, I just hope that you can take care of my family if you can, I don't know if it's okay." ”
"There's no problem with this, you funded me five magic stones, and I promised you a long time ago. ”
Leo said.
"I really didn't expect that it would be you who could help us in the end. And the pay is five magic stones, you are such a good person. Irena smiled wryly, "My body is getting worse and worse, and I feel like my consciousness is dissipating." Before I die, let me do a dance for you as a reward. ”
With that, Irena stood up and began to dance among the flowers.
Her dance is extremely beautiful, like a fairy in a flower.
A breeze blew, and the whole sea of flowers swayed gently, as if it was dancing with her.
Bits of light burst out of Irena and flew into the sky.
Irena grew weaker and weaker, her body became transparent, but she had no intention of stopping, this was her last dance, and the dance of her life.
Carrying her dreams, carrying her last hopes.
Leo watched it all in silence, as if he were watching the most ordinary dance.
Irena finally fell into the sea of flowers, and more and more points of light emerged from her body, merging into the space, turning into a part of the space, and finally Irena's body completely dissipated.
A gust of wind blew, and the entire sea of flowers gradually withered, and even the palace was weathered, revealing the original desolate scenery of the space.
Leo sighed deeply, "Don't worry, I'll avenge you." ”
