Death is a word that is not new to Colanty's life. It is better to say that in this chaotic world, death is no stranger to everyone, every hour and every minute of every day, too many people die in visible or invisible places, and the living have long been numb, because if they do not do this, they will not be able to keep themselves alive from the burden of death. However, there are always times in this world when someone who is of great significance to the person in question leaves this world, and they will face death again and feel pain and sorrow.

Lightning is such a person for Colante. For the young witch, her mother and grandmother would hardly allow her to associate with outsiders in order to protect her, and Lightning was the best of the kind who had the courage to visit the witches and would be interested in Chrandy, who was still a child. Elves seem to be born to appeal to children or those with pure hearts, but in fact the young witch is so fond of lightning that the elven leader has to stay in the witch's house for a while as a "friend" of Kolandy, more like a pet or a pillow. It wasn't until Greene gave Klandy her first pet cat that Lightning was able to shake herself out of this awkward situation.

Childhood is always easy to remember, even for witches, and during the time when Elf and Colandy spend time together, the noisy architect tells witches many stories that she can't get from her mother and grandmother. And Lightning's perspective that is different from normal thinking also makes ordinary things very interesting in its mouth. So even when she grows up, Colante still regards this little guy who can tell many interesting stories as her friend.

It's not hard to explain why Lightning's death was the last straw that overwhelmed Colanty's sanity. The death of Greene, the grandmother whom the blonde witch adores the most, was a process that had been declared and executed in a hurry, and the old witch had foreseen her own death and had made her family accustomed to this distinction in advance. For Klante, the loss of her grandmother was not unacceptable. But lightning was different, the dwarf she had always regarded as a friend was turned into an unrecognizable mass of flesh in front of her by the rampaging ghoul king, and this stimulation really made Kolandi understand the cruelty of death, and the witch chose to escape like everyone else who had just realized this.

Colante closed her mind and hid in the depths of her heart. There, in that chaotic darkness, she didn't have to face the death of lightning, and she didn't have to think about how to welcome a world without dwarf friends. If it were an ordinary person, doing so would be nothing more than depression for a while, but the witch's innate magic power completely exploded after losing its subjective restraint. Even when Cheese's call briefly brought the witch back from the darkness, Colandy only unconsciously repeated a few vague words.

Beads of sweat were pouring out of the mage's head, and he hadn't come here to see his fiancée kill everyone, including himself. Cheese gritted his teeth as he looked at the thorny vines that were growing around him, what he was going to do next was not even in the Grey Tower's lessons, but what the mage had seen by chance from a book. As to whether this spell would work, and whether its effect would save the situation in front of him, Cheese was not at all sure. However, it is completely impossible for the mage to ignore the situation at this point. In other words, even if he wanted to escape, the chaotic space between the corridor and the outside world had not yet been restored.

"But it must be useful. The light in Cheese's eyes gradually turned pale blue, and he raised his left hand to glance at the ring on his ring finger, and as the consciousness of his associator ceased to move, the wedding ring, which had been sucking the mage's blood until now, stopped twisting. The gray-robed mage lifted Kolanty's left hand with his right hand, touching his own ring with the other's ring. The thorny vines magically began to merge when they came into contact with another ring, and soon the fingers of the two men were entwined.

Feeling the cold fingers of Kolanty, Cheese's mouth began to recite the incantation, the magical light in his eyes flickering with the ebb and flow of his intonation, and getting darker and darker, and when the mage's incantation ended, his eyes became lifeless as if they were dead.

There are many types of darkness, and darkness itself can feel different in different scenarios. So far, Cheese has experienced many kinds of darkness, some dark, some cold, but he never imagined that the darkness could be so reassuring, well, reassuring. It felt like a baby in its mother's womb, and the tension in the mage's heart was unbelievably calmed in the darkness. This is Colandy's heart, Cheese knows this, it seems that the spell in that book still works, then the next thing is to awaken the witch's mind before his real body dies completely due to the loss of his soul.

That being said, it was the first time Cheese had done anything like getting into the heart of another creature, and he had entered it with another spellcaster. The mage didn't know what he was supposed to do in such a situation, and with all his training, he couldn't figure out a sure way to succeed, let alone keep himself safe. If you die here, you don't know what will happen to your soul. Cheese thought that perhaps all of his knowledge and memories would become a part of Colendy. Fortunately, in this world of pure thoughts, time passes very slowly, which gives the mage a chance to sort out his thoughts and keep those distracting thoughts away from him, which is an important thing.

Cheese walked forward slowly, in fact, he was not sure where he was going, and there was no concept of up and down in this darkness, so the so-called forward walk was just a random direction for the mage to go. Even, in this area where there is no reference, Cheese is very skeptical that he is really moving. "Colanty!" he shouted, hoping that his voice would alarm the owner.

However, it was as if there was not even an echo in the endless darkness. The mage's shouts were like stones sinking into the sea, without even a ripple. This is a terrible thing. Cheese frowned in the darkness, he only thought about entering Colendy's heart to stop her from going berserk, but he didn't think about how to find the witch herself once he entered his heart. However, perhaps subconsciously, the mage found that he could actually see his body in this darkness, although the outlines and lines were only slightly different from the surrounding darkness, but he could see himself clearly. This also made Cheese notice his current state, the robe still covering his body, but losing its original gray color in the darkness. It is said that the soul of a person will take on the image of himself in his heart, so it seems that he has made this gray robe a part of himself. Thinking of this, the mage shook his head and smiled with a smile that he didn't know whether to be happy or bitter. Cheese continued to examine his body, and as expected, the body under the robe was the same as the one he had seen in the mirror, even the scars from the experiment.

It's just that...... For a moment, when Cheese looked at his hands, he saw not human palms, the ends of the mage's arms turned into split tentacles, waving wildly. But it was only for a moment, and before Cheese could be surprised, the scene was gone, and his hands were still in front of him. This led the mage to notice that the ring on his left ring finger had somehow changed from a thorn ring to an ornate wedding ring carved with roses. Although the material of the ring could not be seen in the dark, it must have been made of some precious metal with gemstones.

What does this mean?
