"What a beautiful firework, you see, Lance, I succeeded. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yes, Lance will never forget that day, that afternoon when the noise came to an abrupt end, and yes, he will never forget the words and the expression on the face of the man in front of him, whom he regarded as "a genius of pure mind and no distractions".

"Ahhh......h It's beautiful......"

Behind him was a dark cloud of mushrooms that symbolized "destruction", Lance had never seen such a strange and terrifying sight before, and what made him even more terrified and incomprehensible was the smile on Calelence's lips.

"You...... What the hell did you do?"

At that moment, Lance even had the idea of punching the person in front of him to make him sober up, but such an "impulsive" move did not succeed in the end. Lens was frightened and flinched in the face of the incomprehensible power and its users, questioning the hellish realm before him like "every" mortal.

――What exactly did you do?

At that moment, one of the two people standing on the high mountain cliff glanced down, their eyes showing obsessive intoxication, and the other questioned everything they had learned before, and they were at a loss.

-- I can't hear you.

A moment ago, the sounds of fighting beneath the cliff were still loud and loud, but now, still holding on to the last shred of innocent hope, Lance focused all his attention on hearing, but could no longer hear the not-so-beautiful clashing of blades, shouts of killing, and screams.

Since the destruction of the Duchy of Carufa by the Northwater Empire in 475 Lunar Calendar, there has been no sign of a large-scale war in the northwest of the continent for a long time. Northwater's dominance in the Bavarian steppes was consolidated with the hegemony of the Empire's first emperor, Runes Tulufates.

From the Herwin Mountains to the north, to the "Jungle of Dagusus", one of the "Three Jedi of Southwell", to the west and the Central Mountains to the east, there is no military force in the vast grasslands that can affect the dominance of the blue wolf in the northwest. However, at the same time, the remnants of the defeated army and the endless bandits and bandits who have lost their establishment and home have become another major problem plaguing the southern border of the empire.

In order to solve this problem once and for all, several years after the annexation of the Principality of Carufa, the iron hooves of the Northwest Wolves once again set foot on this land where they burned their once beautiful civilization to the ground, and what awaits them here is a "rabble" of tens of thousands organized by unknown people.

In Northwater's historical records, there are only a few words about this battle that should not have had any "miracles" and can be a crushing victory, and the result of the crusade is only four short words: "All the bandits are eliminated". However, no one knew that in the face of an enemy who lacked training, was poorly equipped, and could not match the combat power in the slightest, this battle actually damaged the vitality of the "North Wall" for several years, and indirectly led to another step forward in the "military reform" of Runes's reduction of aristocratic privileges and conscription for the common people.

"They...... All are dead! No one is alive! All are ...... Because of you...... Is it fun to kill someone? Do you think about the consequences of your experiment before you do it?"

The silence was unbearable, but Lance's attempt to make his tone stronger had failed. In front of Calelence, the man who thought he would never be afraid of anything again timidly gave in.

"It doesn't matter if you're happy, you're just experimenting. Now I know that there is a problem with my thinking, that my research is still flawed, and that the evidence of the flaw is that those people have not completely 'returned to the shadows'......"

"They're all dead!"

"They are redeemed. Is it a difference between dying under my experiments or dying in war?"

On the cliff, Calelence's understatement could not convince Lance, and at this moment, Lance suddenly understood a certain fact: perhaps the "mirror man" was not wanted by the man in front of him out of pure jealousy, but because he understood this "monster" that he could not control.

Beneath the cliffs, tens of thousands of Northwater soldiers and the pitch-black corpses of the "rebels" were piled up, and the black color was not like the charcoal dyed after the fire, but was eroded by the pitch-black elements. There is no doubt that they have all stopped breathing.

It's just because Callelens did an "experiment" here.

"Lance, my dear friend, you seem to have a displeasure in your eyes...... What are you going to do?"

The incomprehensible gaze that had cooled down couldn't stop Lance's actions, leaving behind the "monster" that he had been "misunderstood" all along, and the man who resolutely jumped off the towering cliff left only two words.

"Save people. ”

......

I don't know whether to say "pity" or "lucky", regardless of the subtle "poisoning" of the shadow breath on his own spirit, Lance, who searched for the "survivor" like a madness in the sea of corpses, finally found a soldier who was still conscious, and saved him.

After that, Lance never had the slightest trouble with Calelence the "Black Shaman", and he took the soldier named "Moore" from the front line of the Enforcers of the Association for a while, until Vina and Ralph joined him......

This is where the memory is skewed.

"Looks like you've finally found out. It doesn't matter, but figuring out what the past means to you is that you have regained the power to choose. ”

In the next second, Lance, unable to move and speak, retreated back to the position he had stood on, and everything in front of him and everything in the past was silent in the rapid flow.

"I'm sorry to say to you, my friend, that I did 'some kind of experiment' on you without your knowledge. Rest assured, the experiment has largely succeeded, and just like me, another you has appeared in you, a you who can 'savior' you from the torrent of fate. However, there are side effects, and your memory seems to be skewed by this......"

In front of him, the man who maintained the same posture as the "Second Illusion" put the bland magic sword on Shi Lijie's bare skin chest this time, as if he was using the flesh of the "Dark Monarch" as a "sword frame".

"Fate may be fair. Now, one of us 'killed' the other once, but looking at you, it seems like you still want to eliminate my presence.......

Amidst a restless cough, the "Black Shaman" glanced coldly at Lance, who had raised his magic power to the extreme, unabashedly projecting a murderous aura, and then continued.

"Let's just say it first, and welcome back to reality, my friend. ”
