Chapter 199: Mira's Wish

Intoxicated by the soft violet scent of Sister Mira, Ulysses was in a trance as he remembered many things he had experienced in Taji City.

Indeed, it was really not so easy, and he had to endure a lot of hardships when he came to the big city from the distant village of Mira alone, so he barely had a place here.

Light magic had almost no attack spells until level five, so he had to work with others to get a better paying mission. Taji City is not a rural place like the neighboring town of Mira Village, and the simple task of charging the Magic Stone has long been in charge, and he has lost the biggest means of making money all along.

To do this, he had to make money like a real mercenary. Although he can barely use healing, using healing techniques in actual combat and using them in practice are fundamentally different things, and he failed many times in his first few missions, and was ridiculed and beaten.

The situation didn't get better until he got to know Kanka, and the orc warriors had a simple personality and didn't shout loudly when they were injured. They rarely get the aid of healing techniques, and they never mind his unstable healing skills in actual combat, but have always supported him and cheered for him.

Eventually, his actual combat spellcasting ability finally came up, and he was no longer a rookie who would fail once after using it three times, but became a qualified light magician who could really help in battle.

And Kanka became the first friend he made in Taji City, and the only best friend. If it weren't for the fact that his dream has always been to become a priest and has not changed, perhaps he would have become a real mercenary a long time ago and integrated into the mercenary group where Kanka was.

Then, life was better, and he began to devote himself wholeheartedly to the priesthood exam, and then failed again and again. Every time he misses the list, he will be lost for a while, and then Kanka and the rest of his friends will take special care of him and give him the easiest part of the mercenary mission.

Not long ago, he knew how much he cared about the leader of the Beast Legion, and he had even already planned a path for him that was truly the most likely to become a priest, and contacted many people to help him pave the way. If it weren't for the fact that he had obtained something as unbelievable as the Book of the Demon King, that might be the most likely path for him to achieve his ideals.

This is a really good place to be. Even if he was killed once by that terrible murderer here, it would not erase the city's help to him. It's great to be able to come to this city to study and grow.

Here, he grows into a qualified mercenary, understands what he can and can't do, and is no longer just a teenager full of fantasies.

Here, he has a best friend and the power to change his fate.

Here he died once, and then came back from death with the strongest power.

This is the place where it all began, and it is the starting point for him to move towards a new future.

There have been some sad things, but more of it is the motivation for him to work hard and keep improving. Returning to the city again, he has become more fond of it than he used to be.

For him now, this will always be the most nostalgic stop in his life's journey, and his favorite place other than his hometown of Mira. Even the incomparably prosperous King Sophia City and the more profound and glorious city are not as good as this lively and humane seaside city in his mind.

"Sister Mira, it's already okay. Seeing the curious glances of the people around him, Ulysses finally realized that it was very blushing for him to be held by Sister Mira like this.

In Sister Mira's eyes, she seems to be still a child!

"Xiaoyou, don't be alone when you're sad, that's not good for you or anyone. Mira gently let go of her embrace, then took Ulysses' hand and warned Ulysses very solemnly.

The biggest flaw of the cute Xiaoyou and the gentle Xiaoyou is the sadness of loneliness. No matter how sad things happened, no matter what sad things happened, he would not allow himself to cry out, and he would not tell those things to others.

He's been on his own to bear that kind of pressure, that kind of sadness, pretending that nothing happened. Even if you ask, you will get only some misleading answers.

It's not lying, but it conceals the most important part, that is, Xiaoyou's means of covering up.

This kind of thing, the closer people are to Xiao You, the more difficult it is to find out, because Xiao You always has a way to deceive the people around him. It wasn't malicious deception, but a well-intentioned concealment by him because he didn't want others to worry.

Therefore, everyone didn't notice that the people who watched Xiao You grow up in Mira Village, Xiao Xia, who was always with Xiao You, Xiao Ya didn't find out about it. Instead, she came to Mira Village from the outside and saw it.

Then, she was attracted to such a Xiaoyou, and she could see his uneasiness as he watched Xiaoya practice his swordsmanship, and his confusion about what he should choose in the future. He also knew that he had been paralyzed many times due to excessive cultivation of light magic, so he just pretended to be okay and leaned against the big tree to watch Xiao Xia and Xiao Ya's game.

Xiao You who works so hard, Xiao You who is so sad, Xiao You who deceives others and deceives herself like that, she likes them all.

At the end of that summer, she actually noticed Xiao You's abnormality, and she didn't believe that the real Xiao Ya would leave alone with only one letter. Something must have happened, something unimaginable happened, that made Xiao You's eyes so strange and unsettling.

However, she didn't know what had happened at the end of the summer, and no one in the entire village of Mira knew about it. It seems that only Xiao You and Xiao Ya were swept in.

The result is that Xiaoyou is back, but Xiaoya disappears, leaving only a letter telling everyone that she has embarked on a journey.

It's impossible, that's absolutely impossible! Xiaoya likes her brother so much, and even more important than her own life, how can she leave Mira Village and her brother so easily.

Even if the letter was indeed from Xiaoya's handwriting, she never believed the letter, not a word.

After that, Xiao You almost lost her smile, and only when she was with Xiao Xia could she see the familiar Xiao You again. Only Xiao Xia was able to protect Xiao You's heart as a brave man at that time, even if she didn't know how important she was to Xiao You at that time.

She had tried very hard to melt away the coldness in Xiao You's heart, but fate didn't give her so much time. Soon she was taken back to the Land of Dragons, and then underwent the Secret Sealing Ritual and was sealed under the ground of the Land of Dragons, guarded by Kakari, losing all her freedom and falling into a dark dream.

When she woke up again, Xiao You had grown up, taller and better than before, and possessed incomparably greater strength. Like a prince in a fairy tale, he saved her from her eternal dream.

However, in his eyes, she could not see happiness, and there was even deeper darkness than at that time.

Obviously there are already more friends around him, and if Angela is right, there are still many girls who like him and love him.

But, Xiaoyou, why are your eyes still so dark, so lonely, and you have almost lost all your warmth.

In that summer dream, in that Xiao You, Xiao Ya, Xiao Xia, and Xiao An all spent the summer happily together, and Xiao You confessed to her in that past dream, it was obviously not like this.

It's not okay to go on like this, it's not right, if that coldness doesn't go away. No matter how powerful Xiao You has, Xiao You, who used to love to laugh, love Xiao Xia, and Xiao Ya and have fun together, can't come back.

Terrible power, she didn't know what was eroding Xiao You, and what kind of thing was also bringing him great power, but there was no doubt that it was a double-edged sword for Xiao You, and the more she used that power, the more Xiao You's feelings would disappear.

When that darkness completely engulfed Xiao You, giving him absolute power that even she couldn't imagine, maybe it was when Xiao You disappeared from this world as she knew.

She didn't want that ending. Xiao You, who has lost his real warm smile, no matter how strong he becomes, he will not be happy, and he will only be accompanied by boundless coldness.

Therefore, Xiao You can't be alone, when he is sad, he needs someone to be by his side to grieve together, when he wants to cry, someone can cry with him, and when he fights, he also needs someone to guard his back and become his strength.

She can't do it all, so she hopes that more people, more people who understand Xiaoyou's goodness, can do such things. She is willing to tolerate all this and help Xiao You by his side, as long as Xiao You can be happy, that is also the happiness she really wants.

This is the thought of the god who created the world, and it is the way she likes Xiao You. She didn't need Xiao You to just look at herself, what she wanted to see was his real heartfelt smile. That can make her feel happy, a smile that she can smile with when she's alone.

That smile is the scenery that she never gets tired of seeing in the dreams she creates, no matter how many times she looks at it, and it is the greatest force that supports her to keep dreaming.

When she was in Mira Village, Xiao You and Xiao Ya, Xiao Xia stretched out their hands to her lonely and let her get happiness. Now, she wants to hold Xiao You with her own hand, so that his eyes are no longer dark, his heart is no longer cold, and he can no longer be alone.

It doesn't matter what the world is, she has long given up all hope when she was abandoned by the world. However, Xiao You broke her fate and brought sunshine and dreams back to her, so that she could return to this world and be with him again.

This time, she will definitely help Xiao You and let him get true happiness.
