Lycia knocked on the door, and though it was still ajar, she didn't dare to rush in.

"Come in. Raphael said in a hoarse voice.

Lycia pushed open the door a little with her right elbow, made sure that Raphael was dressed, and looked at her with a puzzled look before entering.

"Raphael, I have to thank you again for your help. Lycia said, placing the set of jewelry in her hand on Raphael's dresser.

"We cooperate, and it's not a help. Raphael wears a white satin balloon-sleeved blouse and men's leggings on the lower body.

"You're going out as a man?" asked Lycia.

Raphael took a breath, then felt his hands under the drawer of the dresser. "Yes, there is something else going out today. ”

Lycia saw him pull out a pistol, which Lycia was sure it was, but she was calm and didn't immediately dismantle Raphael.

"What is this?" asked just pretending not to know about nature.

Raphael was silent for a moment, then smiled as well. "Is this just a mascot, and every time I wear it, I'm lucky. "I didn't say how it came about.

Lycia watched as he pinned the pistol into his pants behind his back, then put on a black waistcoat.

"Wouldn't it be hot in a vest now?" Lycia didn't continue to ask about the gun.

Raphael patted the folds on his shirt and stood up from his chair. "It's not hot, it's not hot at all where I'm going. ”

"I'm afraid I won't be able to entertain you today, but thank you for the gift. Raphael seemed to be in a bit of a hurry.

"Ah, it's all my fault that I came here today without saying hello. Lycia said.

"Of course, it's nothing, after all, the Thorn Empire doesn't have a **, and you can't ask me a few kilometers away. The last two words, Raphael said in another language, Lycia didn't understand, but she felt that they should be words similar to telephone, and she was almost certain that Raphael was the person on the other side.

"You say nothing?" Lycia continued to pretend that Raphael was the one on the other side of the river.

"No, hahahahahahahahaha "I've made up my own new words, how about it. ”

Lycia had a strange expression that a normal person would have. "Not well, not sure what you're talking about?"

Raphael laughed again. "Don't you think it's strange?Thorn Empire, I mean we all have so many heraldic powers, why are we only a few kilometers apart and there is no way to communicate. ”

Lycia, of course, didn't think it was reasonable. "But we have places between cities where we can get the message around quickly. ”

Raphael nodded. "Of course, only a small number of people can do that. ”

When Raphael had jumped out of the window like the previous time, Lycia crouched down, ready to check if there was anything else on her dresser while she wasn't there.

===== (not finished...) ）

The Bridge of Jihad still looked very strong at that time, and it may not have been called the Bridge of Jihad in its original name.

The people with guns were dressed in wide uniforms, with buttons and gold threads.

The curly-haired officer wore white leggings, black riding boots, and his eyes were full of disdain and contempt.

However, when the cannonball arced perfectly in the air, it disappeared completely, and at the forefront of the horse was the silver-haired Kamen Knight, who raised his hand and reduced the entire cannonball wrapped in flames to ashes.

"Judgment!" Then, the planks on the bridge deck vibrated and thousands of particles of dust and dirt rose from behind the army of hot weapons.

Kavoya Knight's palm fell.

Like a myriad of weapons, the particles of dirt struck the men with old-fashioned pistols.

Panic erupted, people fought invisible people, bullets flew wildly.

The scene changes.

The Knight of Karen fended off the attack with thorns and helped the others fend off, driving the invaders back to the other side of the bridge one by one.

However, a sword plunged into his back, and the thorns suddenly began to grow wildly, dragging the other knights into the water.

"That's my strength. A woman dressed in gold drew her sword, and she rose high into the air, using the blood of the Kamen Knight to cut a crack in the sky.

The blood faded, and Lycia was placed on a meadow with strawberries and flowers next to it, and everything was very good.

"I have foreseen all possibilities. Kaguya Knight said.

Then a sudden wind rose, and Lycia opened her eyes in reality.

"Energy. Lycia saw the third word in the book, and she silently read it.

From the air, it seemed as if a steady stream of light was converging, and Lycia could even feel every muscle in her body begin to fill.

When she recovered from this state, everything was silent again.

Instead of chasing the Circle of Paraka, Krille fell to her knees. "Why do I feel like the Ring of Paraka is spinning so much slower?"

Lycia shook her head and hid the sapphire in her arms. "I don't know, let's go down quickly, teacher, didn't you say that the Ring of Palaka is about to be active, let's go back quickly. ”

Kreel's head and nerves were finally back to normal. "Did I just do something?"

Lycia smiled and shook her head. "You're like a hamster, running laps around the Ring of Paraka. There was a loving smile on her face, and Lycia didn't even notice that she would show a kind expression to her elders.

"Let me see how we go down. Lycia picked up the emerald again, ready to seek the power of divination.

"Just jump, there's wind under the Ring of Paraka, and it will hold us up. Krille patted her forehead with her severed fingernail shell, and shook her head. "It felt like I had forgotten something. ”

Then he jumped down and fell slowly in a spiral through the air.

Lycia jumped after her.

As soon as he landed on the ground, Luo Pei walked over with an impatient expression.

He took a white top hat and reluctantly shoved it into Lycia. "Okay, okay, you get what you want, and you don't have to carry any burden. Then, you will get my first hat, and who made the knight choose you. ”

Collier was still patting her head, and she was always making a different tone of "Oh!"

Lycia didn't take the hat, and she was angry at Rope's attitude, including his trick into the ring.

"Sure enough, you arranged it. Lycia's hands hung down at her sides.

"Of course, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gotten the sapphire at all. Ropee took the hat back, he didn't want to give it to Lycia at all.

"No, I mean Miss Kriel, you don't need her to sacrifice. Lycia said.

Luo Pei's upper lip lifted to the right and laughed. "If you take the sapphire, at least half of the energy of the Paraka Ring will disappear, and the Great Circle will soon be unworthy of being called the Great Circle. ”

It turned out to be this reason. "So, what are the consequences of this?"

"It will give everyone the ability to enter the Great Circle and make a mess of it. Luo Pei said angrily. "Originally, I was doing a good job here. ”

Lycia commented on Luo Pei in her heart, thinking that he was the kind of ascetic who was arrogant and free and devoted to learning, but it turned out that he also had his own selfishness.

Although he was able to get to where he is today, although it was related to his own painstaking cultivation and useless exploration, more opportunities came from the Great Circle and the Ring of Paraka.

Now, after the sapphire, which did not belong to the Ring of Paraka, is taken away, the Great Circle will return to a more friendly state, and more people will be able to go to the Tempering Circle, touch the Ring of Paraka, and feel its eternal power.

This is what Luo Pei does not want to see, he does not want to see others get the same abilities and opportunities as himself.

But there is nothing to reproach in this, and it cannot be expected that everyone is not selfish.

"You can still stay here and practice and then guide more young people. Lycia said, her words inadvertently carrying the power of the Godhead, and a silver divine light entered Luo Pei's body, making his original narrowness disappear.

Then he suddenly came back to his senses, and Lycia's understatement was too similar to that of Kamen Knight.

At that time, he was very confused about his hat-making skills, and he came to the Great Circle, looking for more inspiration and opportunities.

But when he encountered setbacks again and again, when he was always unable to complete the process in the tempering circle, he cried bitterly outside the tempering circle, insulting himself loudly, with no patience, no perseverance, and no strong willpower.

The Knight of the Radiant Night led him to the bottom of the Ring of Paraka. "You can't always blame yourself, young people, there are people who take pleasure in challenging themselves and suffering, but you're not. So it's not that you don't work hard enough, you actually put in a hundred times more effort than others. ”

Young Luo Pei didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence at the time, but he felt that the words of the Kaguya Knight encouraged him and made him feel that he was a man worthy of God's favor.

Later, when he became the person he wanted to be, he criticized himself even more and did not dare to rest for a moment, as if failure would fail to live up to God's expectations of him.

He kept trying to get into the Ring of Paraka, though he never succeeded in that trial.

In an instant, Robet had an epiphany, he understood what the Kagya Knight had said to him, and he listened to Lycia's advice.

He is just Luo Pei, not a god or an ant, he likes to work hard and do penance, he should not suffer for not achieving the immediate goal, just enjoy the fun of penance and the fun of becoming a teacher.

And the words of the Kaguya Knight that day were not expectations for him, but gentle enlightenment.

Luo Pei re-handed his hat. "Thank you for what you said, but I won't go on with you, I'm going to stay here forever, with the Ring of Paraka, and for the people to come. ”

Lycia still waved her hand. "This hat means a lot to you, and you should use it to teach your students. ”

In fact, Lycia really doesn't want so many things, she has received too many gifts, is it too cumbersome to wear a gemstone ring on her hands and a white top hat on her head when she fights in the future.

When she re-entered the refining circle, Lycia was barely harmed, except that her skin was in some pain.

As for Miss Kreel, she is protected by the Ring of Palakar and has nothing to do at all.

After the sapphire was taken away by Lycia, sure enough, the power of the chaotic circle in the outer circle and the frequency of replacement were decreasing.

Lycia also encountered people more frequently on the road, as if there was always a group of people waiting outside the Great Circle, and when the Great Circle was inactive, they would immediately rush in and grab a wave of ore.

"Is this the calm before the active period of the Ring of Paraka?" said an old miner with a folded face, even resting. "I've never seen such a calm Great Circle. ”

Teacher Kriel's face was cloudy.

It wasn't until we got to the edge of the circle that Lycia asked her if we were going out here.

Collier glanced back worriedly. "You took the sapphire, what about my Palaka Ring. ”

"If the polar day begins, I will come back and be with my Ring of Paraka. Krille asked herself, and then stepped out of the Great Circle.

*

When she came to the Bridge of Holy War again, Lycia looked at the traces of cannonballs on the bridge deck and thought of the scene she saw in the blue gem, which turned out to be not the battle between the Sun Goddess and the Thirteen Horsemen.

Rather, it was the Thirteen Knights who led the people in battle against the invasion of the other side.

The people on the other side may be people who do not have the power of heraldry, they have no gods, but they have developed modern technology.

Finally, they crossed the ocean and came here, wanting to encroach on this rich land.

As a result, it was blocked by the knights.

What happened next was the betrayal of the sun goddess.

Lycia wasn't sure if the white-clad Sun Goddess was the one or not, but it didn't look much like Futespar.

The way back was much easier, and the fog on the bridge deck that Lycia had blown away last time had not yet regathered.

Except for the fact that the road was not very easy to walk, they arrived without any problems.

Lycia stopped to look at the sculpture of the war horse and walked towards it unconsciously.

The mark on her neck was still hot, but it had been a long time since she had summoned the Black Knights.

I wonder if something happened to them in the Eye of the Dead Sea.

There is also a blue gem in her hand, which contains a huge amount of energy, and Lycia wants to use her ability to give this energy to the warriors who are about to participate in the battle.

In the carriage on the road, Clare continued to work and study as usual, except for occasional pauses to worry about the Ring of Palaka.

And Lycia has been practicing her mastery of the Godhead in the past few days.

She had transformed another perception into a visual one, and now when she wanted to establish a connection with the gem, Lycia could see a silver bond between them.

Maybe I should tell you what color Ash will wear when I get home. Lycia wanted to try her hand at divination, so she used emeralds and saw the pillars of light converge again.
