The real life is far more bizarre than any enemy, more bizarre and incredible. If Asa had heard that a woman like Talis had suddenly and inexplicably walked with a man like him in an enemy affair, and that the two of them were entangled and entangled in a small inn while everyone was busy with their lives, he would have thought that the enemy was made up. But in reality, the two of them spent more than ten days in a hotel in the royal capital.

In the past ten days, they have no concept of time, and they are so confused that they don't seem to be reality, but they are so clear that they can recall every detail and every excitement.

These are two men and women who are both extremely empty. It's just because it's heavy, the things on his shoulders are too heavy, and it's extremely heavy, but from a certain point of view, he doesn't have enough strength and right to bear this weight. No matter how hard he tried to fight, in the end he could only do nothing like a bystander, and under the huge pressure was a huge emptiness and anxiety.

The other is because of the lightness, all the beliefs and beliefs she originally carried have come to naught, and she can no longer find anything to support herself. Even the few feelings she originally had turned into dust in the collision with faith. In her life, it seemed that suddenly there was nothing left, no more direction, no more warmth to hold in her hands.

Whether it is light or heavy, the extreme emptiness has long erased all the past of the two of them without a trace. It's just a simple couple of men and women, doing everything they can do together. Communicate with each other in all ways that can be communicated, and find comfort and warmth in each other.

The time of the seventeenth day was fast approaching, and it was already the dawn of the seventeenth day. I just felt the sensation coming from the Academy of Magic. Asa knew she had to go.

"I'm leaving. Asa leaned over and patted Talis, her blonde hair and the soft touch of her skin intertwined with each other.

"Is it really possible to come back?" asked Talis, who was silent for a moment. If anyone can see her now, it is impossible to think that she is not a woman, and she is more womanly than any woman when she is defenseless.

"Probably. I try my best. Asa thought for a moment and nodded.

"I'll go with you. Talis said suddenly.

"I'll be distracted. Asa shook his head.

The sky was already dark, and the whole king had not yet fully awakened. But the Academy of Magic was already packed.

Even though there were a few pedestrians on the street, none of them came close to the Academy of Magic. They could not see what was going on inside the walls, but the aura that emanated from them was incompatible with that of the king of the morning. It's not an ordinary murderous aura, the air is as solemn and dignified as if the subway has burned red.

In the square, all the members of the Holy Knights and the priests and magicians of the Academy of Magic gathered together, and the head of Roland watched them in front. Next to it are the hundreds of magicians of the Tower of Teeth, led by Adrid and Grandon.

The members of the Holy Knights showed nothing unusual on their faces. These are the best of the best of the best, the most battle-hardened elites. Not only a warrior who sees death as if he were home, but also a soldier with an iron will and discipline. It's just that they are all human beings after all, and they all understand the arduousness of this upcoming battle and the life of nine deaths, and the fighting spirit that naturally arises in the face of death is already overflowing.

The surrounding magicians and priests were so affected by this atmosphere that their breathing was as heavy as a cow, and many of them had bloodshot eyes.

"I told you that today we are facing an enemy like never before. But we have to face it, not just for ourselves. It's also for everything behind us. "Captain Roland stood on top of the statue in the center of the square, looking down on the people below. His appearance is so unusually that he does not look like a warrior, his words are not much, he is not gorgeous, and his voice is not majestic, but there are deeper and more touching things in these simple words, which are directly poured into the hearts of every listener with a simple and plain fortitude.

"Everybody is going to die and everyone is going to fail. No one is not afraid, not even me. The only way we can do this is to face it, to overcome everything that comes in front of us. And then survive. Our predecessors have come over like this, so now we can have us. And we're going to go on like that. ”

No one cheered, this was not an exhilarating and exciting motivator, it was just a concept that was originally hidden deep in the hearts of all people: to live.

The morning light that came out of the sky was slight and soft, but when it fell on all of them, it was as if they were forced into needles, stabbing people painfully and stabbing people from waking up. The stab makes people want to fight, they want to live.

Asa didn't bother the warriors, but quietly walked to the cathedral door. Here the Pope and Lancelot and Gru are here.

"You're here. Gru looked at him and nodded. He doesn't seem to care where he's gone these days.

"It's coming. Asa nodded at him, as well as to Lancelot and the Pope next to him.

Lancelot suddenly asked, "How are you doing these days?"

Asa glanced at him, and felt a little less surprised at this somewhat unexpected greeting, and he replied honestly, "Very well." ”

"That's good. The paladin replied. Nothing was discernible from his face.

"Just report to you, the titular chief, and everything is in order. The troops of the West have been assembled in the Wyvern Desert, waiting for us here, Oufu, and you. The Pope looked at him and said coldly.

Asa nodded, and couldn't help but bend over him: "Thank you for your hard work." ”

The Pope coughed lightly as he spoke, holding a red and white handkerchief in his hand and holding it to his mouth every time he coughed. I haven't seen him for more than ten days, and he seems to be decades old. Although his face still looked Adra's, anyone could feel at a glance that the life in his body was rapidly depleting and depleting from him.

But what Asa could see clearly was that he was dying gradually. The functions of his body were twisting in a strange and irreversible way, and then the imbalance collapsed, and in fact this body was beginning to be somewhere between an undead monster and a creature, but the old man was desperately trying to maintain his balance with extremely accomplished white magic.

"Shall we go then?" asked Asa.

"There's still someone, but it's time to come. ”

It didn't take long for the figures of the two elves to come from the direction of the teleportation magic array. It's Lua and the elven patrol Kaylin.

"The elves just let the two of them go?" Asa asked.

Lancelot shook his head: "Of course not. They didn't have to go, their bows and arrows and natural magic were useless on that occasion. They're here to deliver something. ”

The two walked straight up, and when they saw Asa, Lua's eyes turned red, and her big eyes sparkled, but she couldn't hold back. Karin still had the great black longbow in her hand, but now she held it in her hand instead of the same as before.

"After the Council of Elders deliberated, Elder Lloyd decided to give you this bow used by Queen Isabel. As compensation for the fact that we elves cannot directly participate in the war. Legend has it that this Phantom Bow is a treasure used by the royal family of the Elven Empire, and it has defended the forests of Turalone and our elves countless times, and I hope you can return it to us when you are done using it. I really don't know how an elder could ...... such a treasure."

Kailin had a bow in her hands, and she was still in love with Roro, and she was instigating. Gru snatched the bow away.

"It's long overdue, and Lloyd understands it, lest I go to the Whispering Forest to get it myself. ”

"This feeling...... Holding this black longbow, Gru's whole person seemed to change a little, and a burst of joy and excitement actually passed through his eyes that had been joyless and carefree. He didn't say much, but it was enough to express what he meant. "Good. ”

Lua looked at Asa with an expression of reluctance and sadness on her face, but she couldn't say anything. The elf girl never learned how to express her feelings.

Asa smiled lightly, reached out and patted her on the head, then turned to Lancelot and said, "Well, then we can go." ”

"Wait. The Pope spoke suddenly. He reached into his bosom and took out something and handed it to Asa. "I can't go, but you should take this thing. ”

The Pope's hand trembled like a hundred-year-old man, and lying in the palm of his hand was a ring that at first glance looked unremarkable, without the slightest ornamentation or engraving, except for a scratch in one place. Asa knew what it was, and the ring had been worn on his hand for quite some time.

"Isn't this thing running out of power?" asked Assa.

"Of course, I wouldn't have given it to you either. The Pope coughed twice and raised his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth. "It's just that this thing should still touch the Dark Star. That's why it was created in the first place, and it's kind of a wish for an old friend of mine. Also, in a sense, it's supposed to be yours.

"Yes. Asa put the ring back on his finger and echoed the sensation for a moment, then he took a deep breath and said, "Then let's go." ”

Early in the morning, with a loud bang. The inhabitants of the royal capital all saw a large blue light flashing in the magic academy. Soon after, as the light curtain disappeared, all the sounds and breaths in the magic academy were gone.
