Chapter Twenty-Three: Farewell, Xia Lulu
In the village dormitory, Esther glanced at the still sleeping Carty Dog and Larulas, and opened the system with some concern, hoping to get an answer from it.
I checked it from beginning to end, and I also found the reason.
On his own character board, there is one more skill, or system ability:
"Transcendent Evolution": Ignoring the evolution condition is the evolution of one's own elves, and the maximum form that can evolve is two levels higher than the host.
Note: One level above the host evolution, duration fifteen minutes, one day of sleep, and a cooldown of one month.
Evolves two levels above the host, lasts one minute, sleeps for seven days, and has a cooldown of one year.
Note: During the battle, you can't get any experience by killing enemies.
Esther was silent, but also relieved.
The price is just a deep sleep, which is already good.
Esther is B-level, Shanaido and Storm Dog are both S-class, two levels higher, and they need to sleep for seven days.
Seven days later, they will wake up, and these seven days will give the two children a good rest.
After knowing the reason why the two children have not been able to wake up, he was also relieved, and then began to study this new ability, looking at the cooldown time, this ability can only be used as a killer feature, and it is a killer feature that has a very short effective time.
Esther was silent for a long time, deciding that he would never use this ability unless it was a mortal situation like today.
If you don't have any experience to take, it will limit their growth.
Sure enough, the system will not give itself a loophole to exploit.
But who are those two women?
Esther thought of the two women who didn't know if they really existed, and if they did, did they know their secrets?
Shake your head, put this headache aside, if they really exist, they will inevitably come to find themselves again, and when the time comes, just ask them directly if you have any questions in your heart, why bother yourself.
Turning off the lights, sleeping, and lying in bed, Esther soon fell asleep, but today he was tired.
……
The soft temperature and the right sunlight illuminate this small courtyard.
In the courtyard, a teenager is boxing vigorously, and on the side, there is a girl who is holding her cheeks and watching quietly.
These two are Esther and Wendy.
It was the fifth day the three of them had left the forest.
Five days ago, the three of them escaped from the mountains and forests in embarrassment, which really frightened the village chief, although they were curious about Gerald's identity, but these three children were all magicians, and they were incomparable to ordinary people, but they ended up so embarrassed when they entered the mountains and forests.
Esther didn't say much, just told them not to set foot in the mountains and forests for a short time.
In this regard, the village chief naturally will not be meaningful.
After that, after Esther settled several people, he wanted to pass on the news to the guild.
The day after the news was delivered, Macao appeared in the small courtyard, and for some reason, Gerald did not appear in front of the other members of Fairy Tail, and Esther and Wendy tacitly did not mention it.
After learning from Esther that Gainlord had appeared in the mountains and forests, Marcao was also startled, and did not ask Esther how to escape, so he hurried into the mountains and forests.
Only returned on the third day.
There is no monster in the mountains and forests.
Gainlord has a brutal personality and is not allowed to have other monsters in his territory.
Gainlord is dead, but the remnants of the aura still permeate the Flashing Mountains, and it will take at least a year to dissipate.
During this period, the forest is safe, but only relatively.
Who knows if there will be other powerful monsters here?
Macao probed carefully for a day and came to the conclusion that Gainlord had left, and that the so-called "cracking of the sky" had not happened since then.
Knowing from Makao that the mountains and forests were safe, the village chief was naturally ecstatic.
Esther did not follow Macao back to the guild, but asked him to explain it to the president.
Macao was strange at first, but when he saw Wendy, his face was strange, revealing a picture of what he was, and he patted Esther on the shoulder very friendly, and said with a sigh, "Children are too precocious nowadays!" ”
Then, with a bewildered look on his face, Esther strode away.
……
Wendy has a smile on her face, and these days are arguably the happiest days she has.
Gerald was the first light she had ever encountered during that time, just after the loss of her mother.
Esther is the second person she has met who makes her feel warm and respectful.
The members of the "Demon Cat Lodge" where she is located take great care of her and love her, but they only treat her as a child, which makes her feel sad when she is moved.
But Esther is different, he cares for her, takes care of her, and respects her in the most gentle way he can.
Wendy was a pleasure to spend time with.
However, happy times always pass quickly.
As soon as he finished punching, Gerald returned.
"It's been confirmed, there will be no more 'Armani' here!" Gerald shared the good news with Esther and Wendy.
Esther nodded, her expression calm, while Wendy was happy and a little depressed, "Brother Gerald, are you leaving!" ”
I have to say that although Wendy is simple, she is not stupid.
Gerald was silent for a moment, then reached out and rubbed Wendy's head, "Yes, since there is no 'Armani' here, then I will also chase 'Armani' and stop him, this is my mission to come to this world!" ”
"In that case, I'm leaving too, the mission has already ended, it's been delayed for a few days, and it's time to report to the guild!"
Esther nodded, "What about you, Wendy?" Do you want to go back to the "Demon Cat's Stay"! ”
Wendy had reluctance in her eyes, but finally nodded, "Then will we meet again in the future?" ”
Gerald's expression changed for a moment, he didn't speak, he didn't know how to answer, he traveled all over the world, and the chance of meeting Wendy was very low.
"Yes!" Unlike Gerald, it is easier to feel Wendy's reluctance.
"Gerald will keep traveling, but when fate comes, we will definitely meet, just like this time.
As for me, don't forget, I'm a sorcerer of the Fairy Tail guild."
Esther showed off her guild badge, "We can write to contact, or we can wait for a time to meet."
Even if you miss each other, you can go to the other party's guild.
"Demon Cat Night" and "Fairy Tail" are not going to disappear suddenly! ”
"Hmm!" Wendy felt Esther's warmth and nodded earnestly.
"Brother Gerald, you have to be careful, don't be in a coma like this time, we are not with you, learn to take care of yourself!"
Wendy said seriously.
"Wendy, I remember!" Gerald smiled, it seemed nice to have someone to care about in another world.
"Have a good trip, don't worry, Wendy, I will send her back to the 'Demon Cat's Night', and then back to the 'Fairy Tail'." Esther patted Gerald on the shoulder, "If you can't solve any trouble in the future, come to Fairy Tail to find me, as long as I can do it, I will help you with all my might!" ”
Gerald's eyes were moved, "Don't worry, as long as there is a need, I will never be polite" Gerald nodded.
After saying goodbye to the two, Gerald turned away without any fuss.
Wendy stood side by side with Esther, looking at his departing figure, silently blessing the kind-hearted teenager.
"Wendy, let's go too!" Esther spoke, and Wendy swept away the sadness of parting and left the village with Esther.
……
The location of the "Demon Cat's Stay" is not close to the "Fairy Tail", it is a little far.
The two of them first took the train from the town to the nearest town to the "Demon Cat Yadry", and then walked in the direction of the "Demon Cat Yaku".
Unlike other guilds, Demon Cat Lodge is located in a dense mountain forest.
As for how dense it is, Esther can only say that he can't see the edge at a glance.
Fortunately, although there are wild beasts in this mountain forest, there are no monsters.
It was obviously full of a lot of magic, but there was no sign of any monster activity, which made Esther curious.
But it's just curiosity, it's someone else's secret, and Esther won't ask about it.
"Laru~"
"Wang~"
Suddenly, Larulas and Cutty barked in one direction.
Larulas and Katy Dog only woke up yesterday, although the sleep period is seven days, but after waking up they also have the saying of weakness, fortunately, this weakness is also achieved quickly, the two little ones who were unable to move yesterday can already move easily today.
It is estimated that it will take another day or two at most to get back to normal.
Esther and Wendy looked nervous at first, but Esther didn't feel threatened.
"Be careful, Wendy!" Esther whispered a reminder and slowly leaned over.
Soon they came to a tree, and in a pile of low bushes, they found a white one with a strange egg.
"Laru~" Laruas shouted.
Esther glanced at the eggshell with some surprise, "This is a monster's egg, be careful!" ”
It seemed that Esther's voice alarmed the monster egg, and it trembled, and cracks appeared in the eggshell.
The two elves were like enemies, but when the eggshell shattered completely, revealing the creatures inside, they were both shocked.
It was a white-pink cat with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, and it looked like a female cat at first glance.
It's cute, it's beautiful, and it's inexplicably distressing.
She was sitting on a shard of eggshell, her eyes glazed out, frightened, to be exact.
Esther frowned.
Wendy was no longer afraid at this time, and her eyes couldn't move away from the kitten.
Esther has such a cute elf, she has always wanted one, but it is an elf, it belongs to Esther, and Wendy can't ask for it.
But when she saw the kitten, she was undeniably moved.
And the appearance of the kitten also made her feel distressed.
"Brother Esther~" She tugged at Esther's sleeve.
Esther glanced at Wendy, the anticipation in those eyes that made him understand.
"Don't worry!" Esther smiled slightly, squatted down, stretched out his hand, and said in his gentlest voice, "Little one, no matter what you feel or see, it doesn't matter, everything in front of you is what you need to face."
Fear doesn't help, you need to learn how to be strong, to be strong, to be able to change the results you see! ”
Esther had already remembered that this little guy was probably the little cat who had been following Wendy all along.
Speaking of which, the pure Dragon Slayer Magus seems to be accompanied by a kitten.
Hearing Esther's words, the kitten raised its head, its godless eyes with a faint brilliance.
"Really?" The kitten spoke, "Can I really?" ”
Wendy looked at the kitten in shock, and it was actually able to speak.
"Yes, because not only you, but also your partner will become stronger for you!" Asteri took Wendy's hand and held her hand with the kitten.
"This is Wendy Mabel, who has one of the strongest magic in the world, the 'Dragon Slaying Magic', which is a magic that even dragons can slay.
Don't look at her as young, when she grows up, she will inevitably become the strongest existence in this world, and all the troubles can be solved for you at that time! ”
Esther's words made Wendy blush, and the kitten looked at Wendy.
"What about you, what's your name?" Esther asked softly.
"Summer ...... Xia Lulu! ”
It was at this moment, under the witness of Esther, that the deep friendship between the future Sky Slayer Dragon Slayer Magus and the Beondalian, Xia Lulu, began.
Wendy hugged the young Charlulu and impatiently introduced her to everything in the forest, introducing Esther, Lalulas, Catty Dog, and Gerald, who didn't know where he had been.
also told his own story, little by little, to Xia Lulu.
It can be seen that Wendy has a genuine love for Xia Lulu.
Perhaps it was Wendy's sincerity and innocence that made Xia Lulu slowly open her heart to her.
……
"Okay, send you a thousand miles, I have to say goodbye in the end, I'll send you here!" Esther paused, looked at the somewhat ruined mountain village in front of him, and smiled and spoke.
"Brother Esther, won't you follow me in?" Wendy was a little stunned and asked anxiously.
"No, there will be a chance in the future, but not now!" Esther said gently, "Goodbye Wendy, goodbye Charlulu!" ”
"Laru~ (Goodbye)"
"Wang~ (goodbye)" Larulas and Cutty also said goodbye to them.
"Alright then, Brother Esther, you have to remember our agreement!" Wendy relieved her frustration and spoke.
Ace nodded, then looked at Xia Lulu, "Xia Lulu, there are some things, people will win the sky, and cats will also win the sky!" ”
"Trust me, and believe in yourself!"
With that, Esther waved his hand and turned away with Larulas and Cutty.
Wendy stood still, watching Esther leave with Charlotte.
"Little Wendy, it looks like you met a very good friend on this outing!" A lazy, old voice, but an old man appeared beside Wendy.
"Grandpa!" Wendy cheered, "Yes, grandpa!" ”
