"Morning. ”

After the battle with Gian Brace, when Kai opened the door the next day, he saw Ellie sitting alone at her desk in the hall, concentrating on reading.

"Hey, Ellie, didn't you sleep?" Kay wondered.

"I don't have to sleep," Ellie replied intently as she looked at the book in her hand without looking up, "never." ”

"Huh, don't you have to sleep?"

"My artifact, the Key of Kronos," Ellie held out her right hand towards Kay, revealing the three keys on her wrist, "The Key of Kronos extends the effect of a minute's rest to more than 6 hours, so I don't have to sleep." ”

"So amazing?" Kai asked, "Is it because of the Key of Kronos that you were able to contact Skywalker last night without being rejected by the Spirit Child Enchantment?"

"No," Ellie said as she flipped to the next page and continued reading, "it's a form of psychic art, the name is Dark, and it's a type of reverse perception psychic art. ”

"Huh?" Ellie was saying, and Kay didn't understand it.

"It seems that you really skipped class too much, and you didn't even learn some of the basics in the academy. Ellie closed the book and walked over to Kai, "I'll show you." ”

I saw Ellie gently close her eyes, and suddenly, Kai suddenly felt that there was nothing in front of her, although Ellie was indeed standing in front of her, but except for her eyes, all the sensory organs on Kai's body could not feel the other party's existence. In fact, even the eyes can't confirm whether the other person really exists, and this feeling is like the other person is just air, and there is no sense of reality.

"This, this is ......"

"This is the Dark Sound, a technique that can control spiritual power in a very low range," Ellie said, "a reverse perception of the spirit that can avoid the enemy's perception of the spirit." ”

"Well, that's amazing," Kai admired, "and there's still this kind of spiritual art." ”

"On the other hand, the perceptual spirit technique is the heart pattern, which can feel the fluctuations of the spirit child within a certain range through guò release of the spirit breath to confirm the position of the other party. Ellie continued, "If someone can skillfully use the dark sound and completely suppress the fluctuation of the spirit child to zero, then even the best heart pattern will not be able to perceive it. Of course, it is not excluded that there are other psychic perception techniques that can locate the position of the other party, just like the olfactory perception that the orcs have always used. ”

"Oh, that's right," Kai asked, "wouldn't it be great if you kept in the dark during the battle? ”

"That's not the case," Ellie explained, "because the dark sound is a state that completely suppresses spiritual power and does not release it, so the body is also in a state of complete spiritual defense. At this time, if you are attacked head-on by the opponent, it is easy to be hit hard. ”

"I see," Kai muttered to himself, "sure enough, any psychic technique has its own weaknesses. Being able to circumvent these weaknesses and maximize the effects of psionic magic will give you an advantage in battle. ”

"That's not bad at all," said Ellie, "but Leo didn't seem to have grasped the essence of the sentence at all. In last night's battle with Astorilla's royal knights, Leo-san's classmates blindly used high-intensity spiritual magic to collide with the opponent head-on, but the situation was never opened. ”

"Well, it's just a tactical mistake," Kai replied with his key to Kronos, "if I can use this as skillfully as Ellie, I'll be able to easily defeat that Gian Brace." ”

"What?" Ellie's face was surprised, "You have the Key of Kronos and can't use it?"

"How do I know how to use it," Kai replied, "and my own father didn't tell me how to use it when he gave me the key?"

"Daddy?" said Ellie, wondering, "Isn't Count Lando Leo your father?"

"Oh, he's my adoptive father," Kay replied, putting away the key, "and my real father is Ambriel Colin. ”

"Ambriel Colin?!"

"yes," Kay didn't notice the apparent drastic change in the expression on Ellie's face, "do you know him?"

"Of course I do, Ambriel Collin......" Ellie's voice suddenly became muffled, "I see, so you are the son of that man......"

"What's wrong with you?"

"Then I'll have to ......" Ellie jerked her head up, her pale green eyes revealing a fierce light, "Kill you!"

"Huh?!"

......

"Bang!!"

So, when the first rays of the morning sun shone into this small border town, another explosion was heard at the inn.

"Hey, hey, what's going on?!" "What the hell are you doing, Ellie?"

I saw a murderous Ellida Rebecca follow out of the hotel: "I originally wanted to use your key to go to that place, but since you are his son, I will kill you and forcibly take the key!"

"Wait, wait a minute," Kai asked, "what the hell did I miss out on here, why did you want to kill me?"

"Hmph, then let me sue you. With a wave of Ellie's right hand, the flames of the inn behind her were instantly extinguished, "Ambriel Colin is the culprit of the destruction of my Rebecca family!

"Ahh

This is the first time Kai has heard of this kind of thing. Although he didn't know anything about Ambril, according to Grant Colin and Lando Leo, Ambril was definitely not a madman with a penchant for killing. So what exactly is Ellie talking about......

"Our Rebecca family is the top-level nobles who survived the thousand-year-old holy war, and the Rebecca Principality in the South China Sea is under the control of our family. "But since Ambril appeared there, the royal family was quickly overthrown, civil strife erupted, and the whole country was shattered. Ambril has since disappeared and has never been seen again. And I, on the other hand, have been following his whereabouts since I was born. ”

"Huh?" said Kay, "there are a lot of problems with your statement. I remember that you were the same age as me, and you certainly hadn't seen Ambril destroy your country with your own eyes. But where did you hear about Ambril when the royal family was destroyed......?

Without giving Kai a chance to continue arguing, Ambriel suddenly instantaneously stepped in front of him and pressed his right hand to his abdomen.

"Bang!"

The strong impact knocked Kai into the air in an instant.

"How is that possible?" Kai rolled around the ground hill a few times before finally stopping, "Ellie's palm is obviously very weak, how can it be so powerful?"

"I can't believe the way you look," said Ellie, "and I'll tell you." My weapon, the Key of Kronos, can multiply the effect of an attack, and even a minor abrasion can be magnified into a life-threatening fatal wound!"

"Hey, that's okay?!" Kai shouted, "Heal injuries, restore your body, increase your movement speed, and even amplify your attacks, is the Key of Kronos really a spiritual weapon?"

"The Key of Kronos is not such a simple weapon," Ellie laughed disdainfully, "The Key of Kronos is the highest-level weapon known as the Heavenly Gift-Divine Weapon!"

"God, artifact?"

"At the beginning of the birth of the world, it was a high-concentration spirit seed crystal naturally formed by absorbing the spirit seeds of nature," Ellie said, "Originally, the spirit weapon was an imitation of the artifact made by human beings. I have an artifact, and I am something you will never be able to defeat. ”

"Wait, aren't you cheating?"

"That's how I fight, if you can't handle it, just sit back!" Ellie waved her right hand and three keys clanged.

"Come to think of it, I don't know anything about Ellie's fighting skills. Kai pondered, "It's a big deal now." ”

"Key of Kronos......" Lana spread her hands and several cyan flames lit up behind her, "Heroic History. ”

"What's that?"

I saw Lana point her hands at Kai, and a flame immediately released.

The flames hit the abdomen and then passed through the body: "What?!"

Kai reached out and pressed his abdomen: "What's the matter, it doesn't hurt at all?"

"That's not a flame, naturally it can't cause physical damage," Ellie's whole body was surrounded by cyan spiritual fire, "I'm a wood spirit holder, representing life, but the key of Kronos can use my wood spirit in reverse, that's ......"

"Aging!" Kai replied, and by this time he had clearly felt that the spiritual power of his physical energy was rapidly draining. Elrida's abilities are really terrifying, especially for a psychic like Kai who is good at melee combat.

"Huh?" Kay suddenly noticed that there were a lot of strange looks around him.

"Hey, look over there?"

"What are they doing?"

"Do young couples quarrel?"

......

It turned out that the scene of Kai and Ellie facing each other in the middle of the road attracted many passers-by to watch.

"Hey, you don't run away, this is a duel between royal knights, and if you get involved, you will die. ”

Kai roared, and the people around him woke up like a dream, and immediately fled completely, and all the shops were closed in an instant.

Soon the whole street was left with the two lonely people.

"Although I don't want to use my sword against the lady, I will be even more reluctant to die like this inexplicably!" Kai pulled out the thunderbolt and unfolded into the night of the gods.

"I don't know if the Sixteen Nights Rose will be able to do anything to Ellie's Heroic History, and if I'm not careful, I'm afraid I'll overdraw all of my body in no time. "But it seems that there is no time to verify it." ”

"We must fight quickly!" Kai's sword blade quickly turned black, and immediately, a black sword wave came out, "Sixteen Polar Night!"

Kai's near-fatal move proved to have paid off.

Ellie didn't use the cyan spiritual fire of the Heroic Soul History to resist, but quickly opened a spatial spirit array in front of her: "Key of Kronos, Refuse Now!"

I saw that the black sword wave was instantly absorbed by this spatial spirit array. Immediately, in the sky behind Ellie, an identical spatial spirit array was opened, releasing all the sword waves that had just been absorbed, and the thick black sword waves filled the sky, dyeing the sky that had just revealed Chenxi black again.

"That's, spatial dislocation?!"

But Kaigen didn't even have time to be surprised, after the release of the Sixteen Polar Nights, his spiritual power was greatly overdrawn, and he soon felt that his vision was blurred. In addition, the injuries he received before had not healed, and his entire body was almost emptied, and he was completely powerless.

"Ahh ”
