*** ***

The beginning of that beautiful love story is about the summer of 1657 in the standard calendar.

It was not too hot that summer, and even in mid-July it was a little cool, but it was indeed a hot summer for a young major officer. A summer of love on fire.

On that day, he went to the Cathedral of Illona to pray, as usual. There, he met his goddess, the beautiful seminarian girl who had come here to train. As a result, the frequency of his visits to church changed from once a month to once a week.

Every precious holiday, he would take a bouquet of bright flowers and go there to give it to her. And she always smiled faintly and accepted the bouquet of flowers.

Everything is beautiful, but it won't always be so good, and her apprenticeship will come to an end. On that day, as in a simple love story, he brought a larger bouquet of flowers and a pale white love letter to confess to her, but she was stingy in giving him the three-word answer.

"I'm sorry, but people who throw themselves into the arms of God are not qualified to love others. ”

He decided that it was because of his lack of ability and status. In order to seek a higher position, the major was transferred to the most dangerous field troops, and in the course of dealing with the Principality of Figota, the Principality of Soma, and the Elven Army, the young man gradually emerged, and the ranks were also climbed year by year. He thought that as long as he became a great general and hero, he could get the favor of beauties.

Later, when he looked back, he realized that it was only a false illusion. Actually, he just wished that he would always be that major, and then go and send her a bouquet of flowers every week, and that would be enough.

Eight years have passed. When he returned to the city, he found that another man was already living with her......

Decoe Lemda woke up from his memories to find that he had arrived at the gates of St. Grace's Welfare Home. However, the situation has long been completely different.

From the main entrance of the welfare home to the front of the atrium, the corpses that were charred, scorched, slashed, and shot can already be described as "innumerable". Half of the assault force of the entire company has been consumed here. Seeing this kind of scene, even the experienced one would feel a little afraid. This was fundamentally different from the battle he expected.

This was not to take the enemy lightly, and the Major General did not take his opponent lightly at all - the use of nearly a hundred men to besiege a small compound guarded by only 15 soldiers, a mage and a priest could not be said to be careless in any way.

He had known Vilentina well, when she was Elona's priest rather than a cultivator. He couldn't say that he didn't know much about Namen López, and he had carefully investigated the details of this potential rival.

But Lemda now felt that he had no idea of the true strength of these two men. This can only be described as a miracle......

"Miracles shouldn't happen twice. He muttered to himself, glancing at the three hundred soldiers behind him, and firming his confidence. Although he was not a mage or a priest, he was confident in his beliefs.

Three hundred, that's enough to drain the magic of two top mages or a dozen ordinary mages. What's more, these forces are still very organized.

*** ***

"Let's go, Naimon. The woman put the injured man's hand on her shoulder and helped him walk to the chapel behind the atrium. After the hard battle just now, he and she were a little tired.

"They are really like partners who have supported each other for a long time, and they can trust each other in critical moments...... Hurry up and confess, teacher, there will be no better chance. ”

Danica, a teenage girl with tan hair, looked at him and her back, and scratched her hair. Behind her, littered with corpses, soldiers in Free Army uniforms fell to the ground. Her magic and fighting talent were undoubtedly inherited from her father, and although I don't want to admit it, she did inherit a lot of her calm and cold-blooded qualities.

"Does it still hurt?" After sitting down in the chapel hall, the nun asked the black-robed mage beside her with concern.

Namen López, or rather Zalte Fran, unbuttoned his shirt and looked at the location of the arrow wound. The effect of Virentina's healing magic was so remarkable that the blood was no longer flowing, and a faint white light shrouded the wound, making it no longer painful.

"It's all right," he replied in a relaxed tone, "and a third-rate bow and arrow can't hurt me yet." ”

"That's good. Viren laughed. At twenty-nine, she does look good when she smiles, Zalt thought.

It's been six years...... Zart slowly took out a red box from the inner bag. The red flannel was slightly stained with blood, and he hurriedly wiped it off.

"Actually, I have something I want you to take. He plucked up his courage and handed the box over.

When Viren saw the box, she smiled, "How many times is this?"

"Probably...... About the 100th time, right?" "Actually, I've changed the contents many times......

"It's been a long time...... Then I'll take it this time. Now, I can finally be sure that you are more important to me than faith. ”

"So...... You accepted?" asked Zart, suppressed his excitement.

Villetina blushed slightly and nodded.

"Hey, it worked!" the mage bounced off his chair, but fell back into his chair because of the wound.

"Naimon, don't do this, the wound will delay healing!" Wei Lun's reprimanding tone carried a hint of warmth.

"Actually, Viren, I've had two things to tell you for a long time. The first is ...... From the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you. The mage took a deep breath and said in a heartfelt voice.

"What else?"

"Another word...... Actually, my name is not Namen López. My name is Zalt Fran, the rebellious mage Zalt Fran. Sorry for lying to you. ”

"Zalt. Well, it's a good name, there's no need to hide it, right?" "From the first time I saw you, I knew you had been lying to me. However, I also concealed my graduation from seminary...... Let's even if we tie it out. ”

"Okay, we're even. ”

He propped himself up and looked at her beautiful face. The eyes of the two met, their faces were red, and they closed their eyes.

"I love you, Viren. ”

"I love you too, Namen...... No, Zart. ”

The moonlight was cast on the white idol of Irona, the goddess of healing, who seemed to smile faintly in calm. Danica's specially designed soundproofing magic gave them this temporary peace. The girl is determined to rely on her own strength to block the attacks of more enemies. This artificial calm seems extraordinarily abrupt and extravagant.

*** ***

“...... Detect Magic!"

The sole chaplain carefully hid behind the guards, throwing a spell to detect magic. His vision turned to pure black and gray, with only one thing that stood out from the rest. He took out the standard brightness meter and compared it.

"Discover the magic reaction, Your Excellency. He stretched out his hand and drew a line in the air marking the ground on the other side of the yard, "Medium, ten to twelve bright." ”

Dikhao Lemda nodded. He was glad that he still had a full squad and could fight in magically dangerous areas as per the regulations. If the establishment had collapsed, he would not have a pastor to use now.

"The assault squad enters. He said in a deep voice.

According to the structure of the Free Army, three soldiers armed with spears, swords and muskets formed a guerrilla combat group. Twelve people could form four battle groups, and they cautiously and quickly entered the seemingly empty courtyard.

Before leaving, everyone drank an anti-magic potion that was standard equipment for the Free Army. Assault squads are bound to withstand possible traps and magical attacks, and their equipment is the best of all units - only one squad per company can be equipped with anti-magic potions.

Looking at his subordinate from a distance with some concern, Major General Lemda was glad that he still had full equipment available. The opponent has a considerable number of spellcasters, and if the equipment has been lost, the soldier's life can only be relied on to detect the enemy's magic ability and magic balance.

The assault troops bowed and slowly advanced, slowly advancing. The enemy must have been lurking somewhere, but they didn't fire. Before and after walking to that line, the soldiers of the assault squad hesitated for a moment, and only let one combat group go in first.

"If it's only a medium strength, it shouldn't be stronger than an anti-magic potion......"

Just when Lemda was thinking so, something happened abruptly!

I heard the soldiers in the courtyard scream violently, and their weapons fell one after another. A huge, thick voice echoed through the courtyard, sounding like some kind of terrifying monster.

"Get out of the way! If you don't get out of the way, you'll be dead! This is not a place for you to get close!"

Hearing this sound, the soldiers were stunned and looked around for the source of the sound. Immediately afterward, blazing flames rose from the empty space and enveloped the entire courtyard! The flames were not as numerous as walls of fire, nor like small magic like fireballs...... It's a real sea of fire!

"Withdraw immediately!" Seeing the power of the magic, the major general's hand slammed against the wall and shouted loudly, but it was too late.

As the flames burned, a continuous explosion rang out. The soldiers of the first battle group were full of flesh and blood, and the anti-magic potion did not do even the slightest. The sea of fire burned from the place where the magic existed, to the front of the door, where it stopped abruptly.

No one can escape from that sea of fire.

"There's no anti-magic potion anymore, sir. The company commander next to him reminded in a low voice, "That sea of fire...... Are we going to try?"

Lemda stared at the sea of fire for a long time. The mid-level reaction was only given feedback that was definitely high-level magic. This is unlikely......

*** ***

After a tentative assault, calm returned to the courtyard and the flames disappeared. A new attack, which has not been launched for a long time.

"Miss, your plan seems to have worked. ”

When the dwarf saw that the torch in his hand was burned, he blew it out and lit another one with a match. He and his team hid behind the massive flames and makeshift bunkers, spying through the cracks in the bunkers for enemy movements.

"It's just a momentary effect. How many bombs are left?"

"Probably more than ten times. ”

"More than a dozen ......," Danica López sat down on a wooden box full of bombs, holding her chin and calculating carefully. Even if you can solve one class at a time, this amount is not enough.

If the illusion plus the bomb can stop the opponent's attack, it will be enough to make them stop...... It would be better if one or two large-scale attacks could be repelled in the middle. More than ten times is not enough to destroy all the opponent's forces, but it should be enough to weaken the opponent's morale. As long as more reinforcements arrive, the remnants of these forces who are trying to hold her hostage will be completely defeated.

As long as you hold out until reinforcements arrive......

Muttering to herself, she snapped to her senses. What are you expecting, Denica? Expect reinforcements...... Aren't you going to trust that bastard father anymore? Or do you still have trust in that bastard deep down in your heart? the man who doesn't deserve to be a father......

How could she be saved by that kind of man? How could she expect that kind of father to come? Clearly, wasn't he the one who dragged her into this troubled water? Even those enemies shouted "All women must be captured alive"!

"You're a magical genius and an expert in illusion...... You have to use your own strength to open up the future, and you can't be dragged down by that bastard father. You're Denika first, then López – that last name doesn't matter to you. ”

Danica muttered to herself, hypnotizing herself. The competitive spirit ignited and strengthened her resolve.

"If you kill purely with magic, no matter how strong you are, you'll be drained quickly. But no one says that you have to kill with all your magic. ”

She also has a lot of magic...... All she had to do was project these magic powers at the most opportune time.

"Come on. She heard the roar of an officer's command from outside.

"Come on. She saw the walls on either side collapse and the crowd poured in.

"Come on. "Seventy...... Eighty, maybe more, a massive attack. Isn't that what she's looking forward to?

"Come on!" flames burst out, enveloping the earth and the sky. This time the enemy did not froze, but rushed inside desperately. Have they seen through the illusion? Maybe it's too fast......

"Fire!!" Danika shouted as she slammed to her feet. The flaming flames set off her back, and the pistol magazine in her hand rotated continuously. The dwarves threw their bombs, causing them to explode in the center of the field.

Tug looked up at the slender, fragile figure.

For some reason, he remembered another equally heroic and fearless figure, in Aintak, in the Great Wilderness, in the Western Tang Dynasty, in Ying, and in the Hua Dynasty.

"Where there is a father, there is a son. He remembered an Eastern proverb that seemed to apply to his daughter in the West.

*** ***

Of course, the enemy on the opposite side did not think so. For them, it wasn't a young girl in front of them...... It's a monster.

The tide of bullets hits, but it often hits the mirror image. Her figure flickered like a ghost under the cover of flames and smoke, and no actual trace could be found in any way. Her dwarves were few in number, but they resisted valiantly, rolling around under the cover of illusions with muskets and halberds.

"Don't stay here! Kill it!" the company commander who commanded the general attack hurriedly ordered.

But as soon as the order was over, a sharp blade pierced his throat from the shadows. The girl's eyes were cold and sharp, and she didn't hesitate even if the blood splashed on her leather armor. The two guards pursued, only to realize that it was just a phantom—a phantom killer.

Immediately afterward, a flaming bullet with a fused ignited rolled to their feet and exploded with a bang. The real girl smiled and disappeared into the flames again.

But even if the commander died, the soldiers would not stop charging. Not only because the order has been given, but because they have no way out.

"The only way is to rush indoors!"

After leaving a quarter of the bodies and an equal number of wounded, they rushed into the hall. What unfolded before the eyes of these soldiers was an extremely sacred scene. It wasn't the main hall of a small welfare home, but ......

"This ...... Isn't it the main hall of the Great Church?" exclaimed a faithful believer.

"You're right, this is the Great Temple. Of course, this is not a large church either. ”

Danica's voice came from the altar in the distance, directly in front of him. She wore a pristine white priesthood garment, and looked proudly at the soldiers who came in. Some musketeers couldn't hold it back, so they immediately lit the arquebus and fired. But the lead bullet hit something unknown, and it only made the sound of "Bubu".

"Here...... The actual furnishings here are different from the illusions! It's more dangerous than the outside, retreat!" shouted someone who didn't know whether it was a non-commissioned officer or a lieutenant.

"Did you find out? But it's too late. Ignite!"

The girl flicked her fingers, and a big explosion occurred at the door. All the remaining fires that had been hidden by the illusion exploded at the same time. A storm of nails struck the walls around them, nailed to unseen furniture, and struck the soldiers, leaving endless trails of blood and flesh behind. Seeing this tragic scene, even the battle-hardened dwarves couldn't help but bow their heads and gag. This is not a fight...... Rather, it was slaughter.

But Danica López didn't have time to be in the mood for gagging, she was busy estimating the number of enemy deaths......

Eight...... Ten...... Twelve ...... Thirteen. Thirteen classes, no more. The rest ...... Where is the rest?!

The answer is instantaneous.

*** ***

"Are you looking for us, honorable lady general, your battle is so wonderful that I can't help but applaud. Oh...... This great church is really like it. Dick Lemda slammed into the middle of a row of seats in the Great Chapel—the original side door of the atrium, of course.

Danika didn't talk nonsense to him, and with a flash of her hand, six gunshots rang out. The bullets that hadn't been used before were all poured in the man's direction.

- Unfortunately, all the bullets flew off. The girl noticed that the only bullet that hit was bounced off by something.

The major general remained motionless, steady as a roof mountain range: "Miss, wait, wait and then do it." Let's take a look at my captive, how about you?"

With a wave of his hand, the remaining hundred or so soldiers poured into the small atrium. In the midst of them were the men and women of the place, and all the children. Neither Zart nor Viren were injured - it was clear that Lemda had used the same filthy hostage tactics as she did now. After meeting Danika, he looked at her and smiled wryly in response.

Danica's face turned blood-red in an instant. Not shyness, but anger.

"You...... How did you avoid my backyard alarm?!I should have alarm magic on all walls......"

"That's nothing for a fully equipped company. We still have a Demon Breaker Scroll, and a good weapon should be used on the blade. Dikor Lemda glanced around the room, saw the flesh, and sighed. "What a terrible death...... As an opponent, I would like to pay you a little respect. ”

"Don't pretend anymore, I surrender. Danica looked at the teachers and nuns, then at the children, and lowered her head. She held the gun and was about to throw it.

"No, miss, I grant you permission to keep that 'symbolic' weapon. Dick Lemda promised, "On the other hand, as long as you use all your magic." ”

Danika gritted her teeth and put the gun back in its holster, enduring the ridicule.

"Remember, let go until you collapse. After seeing your combat effectiveness, I dare not underestimate you in the slightest. Lemda added.

“...... All right. Danika retracted all her illusions, and the surroundings were transformed back into a burning, burning, and dilapidated orphanage. Her hands trembled, but they were raised powerfully and pointed to the sky.

Gathering mana is the most basic way to practice magic, which is generally to gather to the maximum first and then slowly retract it, but if you gather mana and then release it directly, it is the most inefficient way to directly empty mana. This spell is called "Pure Flame" and is the basic technique of all magic, but almost no one uses it - unless it is intended to deal unstoppable damage. Pure Flame can be used to pierce almost any elemental wall or magic resistance.

Danika did her best to gather her magic at her fingertips, forming a dazzling silver light. The silver light cluster is getting bigger, more and more dazzling, and more and more dazzling.

"Awesome. Zart Fran, whose hands were handcuffed behind his back, widened his eyes. He didn't know that his apprentice already possessed this incredible power—even more than his own limits.

“...... Energy Fire!"

Danika shouted a spell, sending the large, dazzling silver light into the air. This spell contains the girl's unwillingness and obsession. The silver light pierced through the rooftops and burst through the clouds of the night sky, dazzling and dazzling.

"Awesome. Even Diko Lemda couldn't help but praise the power of the magic, "Go ahead. ”

*** ***

Burst into the air with silver light one after another, and even on this night, it seemed a little unusual. People turned their heads and looked in the direction of the silver light bursting.

One.

Because her sister Anne Seffier gave the orphanage extra money, Villatina was able to scrape together enough money to buy the orphanage.

Two.

Because Virentina bought the orphanage, the children were able to be taken hostage by Dick Lemda.

Three.

Thanks to Clad López's perfect plan, Bonnie wanted to fix the undead problem in advance.

Four.

Thanks to Bonnie Sefir taking out the undead and causing a counterattack, Deakor Lemda will have a full force to break through the orphanage's defenses. In the original history, he should have fallen there.

Five.

Thanks to all of this, Dikhao Lemda was able to break through the orphanage and avoid defeat.

Six.

Thanks to all of the above, Dick Lemda was able to get the hostage he wanted.

Seven.

Because of all of the above, it was possible for the major general to resist the attack of Cladé López with the help of hostages.

Eight.

Thanks to all of the above, Radetz Govar was able to take command of the 10th Division.

Nine.

Because of all of this, the undead are wreaking havoc on Lenny.

Ten.

At this moment, the inconspicuous teenager Soleton had just woken up and stood outside the cathedral looking at the familiar Pure Energy Flame. His heart sank, and he ran in that direction despite the faint pain in his left arm.

Eleven.

By this time, Anne Sefir had already extinguished the fire on Seventh Street and was looking at the strange silver flames in the sky.

Twelve.

At this time, Bonnie Sefir is in the alleyways of the North City, fighting the undead who are pursuing her. She also saw the silver light in the distance, and a chuckle appeared on the corner of her mouth.

A baker's dozen.

At this time, Vilentina and Zart, who were hostages, were helplessly watching their disciples let go of their magic.

Fourteen.

At this time, Clad López was speeding towards the place where the silver light was emitting, together with his lieutenant Hull. Of course he knew it was there.

Fifteen.

By this time, Radetz Gvar was halfway there. He looked at the silver flames in the air and unconsciously quickened his pace.

Sixteen.

At this time, the bell of the parliament building rang ten times. The "People's Marching Army" of the undead is rapidly redeploying, laying out a net of heaven and earth.

Seventeen.

At this time, Major General Dikko Lemda was looking at the girl who was struggling to shoot out the silver pure energy flame, and he couldn't suppress the surprise on his face. She's been through so many hard battles, and she's still able to release seventeen rounds of pure energy flames! What kind of genius is this......

Eighteen...... This one was noticeably darker than the others.

After releasing this shot, Danica's body shook a little. She tried to stand still, but finally collapsed weakly in front of the idol of the orphanage. Two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward and tied her hands behind her back. The exhausted girl didn't even have the strength to struggle.

Finally there was no more, not a single silver flame piercing the night sky.

Perhaps the silver flames affected the water droplets in the clouds, or provided them with condensation nuclei...... In short, the snowflakes quietly began to fall.

Originally, there was supposed to be no snow on December 7, 1665.

"It's snowing? How can this be...... History is completely unrecognizable!"

Anne Seffir - No, now it was Rose Quilahia's fist that slammed into the air and hit nothing. She was speeding towards where the silver flame came from.
