Chapter 671: Something Important
"It's okay, don't worry so much, it's not what you think. ”
Asa naturally turned to the side, still so composed.
"Since we haven't met anyone from the Wizard Alliance along the way, there has been no movement on the other side of the desert in the few days since we arrived in Arcatia, and it seems that at least the Core Council is unaware. Among my former colleagues, Borenfuz was not alone. ”
"Hard, could it be that Yatel Hernos didn't sue them?" Ivan was shocked. No, even if Artel doesn't say it, the World Tree will know, right?
"Attel......" Asa's expression was in a trance for a second, "Ah, he doesn't trust the Core Council, he has a lot of secrets, and he doesn't want all of his qi to be exposed in front of the World Tree, and as for the World Tree, if no one makes a clear request for an investigation-"
It was as if he had suddenly fallen into deep thought.
"Ivan, where is your Executor badge?"
"Uh, in...... I, I forgot about the city of Kadolissa!" Ivan's eyes widened, "That, badge...... No, are you alright?"
"It's fine. Asa replied in the affirmative, "When you get back, give me your badge, I want to see it." ”
"Oh......"
It's okay. But that badge seems to have something to do with the World Tree, too.
Ivan still remembers that in order to save Laxis Flotica, he went to the inner city of Idglasius, and met the elves of the World Tree in a strange white space, and the runes on the badge appeared in front of the elves of the World Tree. It's so strange.,There's a very uncomfortable feeling in my heart for some reason.,It seems that I've forgotten something important.。
...... related to the sprites of the World Tree Very important thing...... What could it be?
"Hey, you want to go back to the continent of the Feather Clan?" Sylvia slammed down on the table, "That, that brother's ......"
The words are not finished yet. She froze for a moment, lowered her head, and looked away.
"Sylvia, are the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce still in Arcatia City?" asked Asa.
"Ahh......h Yes, but they said they would be back soon. You ......"
"What's wrong?"
"You...... Are you sick?" Sylvia turned her head, her expression stiff. Asa smiled.
"Is it obvious?"
"Of course! It couldn't be more obvious! Even just an ordinary person can see it! I, I can see it from the beginning, so, you, you are still ......" Sylvia seemed to hesitate, and finally, she let out a hard breath.
"Brother, he's very concerned about your safety. Sylvia pursed her lips and said sullenly.
“...... Clarence said something like that. Asa sighed helplessly. "I'm worried too much, he always does. ”
"But, but, brother, he doesn't mean anything else......" Sylvia's voice became more and more unconfident, "he, that's what he said......"
"You mean, you won't tell me about the merchants' dwellings?"
Asa still had a gentle smile on his face, but even with such a haggard face. With such a gentle smile, Sylvia still involuntarily shrank back. Even if this person is a very powerful magician. As a wizard, Sylvia was not so afraid of him.
But Sylvia didn't dare to speak out. What she wanted to say was that returning to the area managed by the Wizard Alliance meant facing a more dangerous situation than before, and neither her brother nor anyone else might be able to help in time. It's fine if you just want to meet the merchants of the Chamber of Commerce, but that's not what Xing means.
"Asa......" Ivan spoke. "I think you'd better not go over there now, I mean, Clarence them. ”
Asa and Sylvia turned their heads at the same time, and Sylvia was dumbfounded.
"I ...... I'm worried about Sister Xiulin and John, and I want to know what's going on with the Alliance. Marainen hasn't repaired the ship yet, has she, so I'm going to have to go back for a while, if only everybody was okay. I'm going to see Clarence, it's safer than you to go to him, isn't it?If you run into someone from the Alliance's inner council again, will you- still be able to win?"
That's a bit cruel to say. Sylvia even held her breath, her eyes darkened. She had seen Star's wrath, and everyone was terrified when the magician named Laxis Flotica died.
However, Xing didn't mean to be angry at all, just a little stunned, and then, very unexpectedly, he nodded.
"Yes, it's easier for me to get their attention. So, can I leave this matter to you, Ivan?"
"Hmm...... Just go to see Clarence Milton?" asked Ivan.
Asa shook his head.
"Clarence, aka the scholar, he should be with Christina now, Dragon's Tooth...... Anastasia should also be by their side, you just need to inquire about Christina, Duke of Lorraine in the Kingdom of Madland. And then there's Rey. ”
Ivan's heart sank, and suddenly he remembered Angel again, and he gasped softly.
As long as the two of them are okay, Yiqiē is still expected. Asa had apparently noticed the change in his expression, but said nothing. After a while, he turned to Sylvia.
"So you...... I trust him so much. Sylvia muttered with her head down.
"Well, yes, we're friends. Asa said plainly.
Ivan was stunned, and the pimple in his heart dissipated unconsciously, replaced by a warmth lingering in his chest.
In the past, Ivan did not trust Asa, and he didn't know if Asa trusted him, but from a certain time, he suddenly felt that it was not unreasonable for Christina and Rey to trust Asa so much, and sometimes, this illegal magician who was full of mysteries was really very reliable.
And when he passed out, when he fell asleep in the boat, there was Asa. Now that I think about it, I can't help but feel quite steady.
He wouldn't have come back alive without Asa, and this time, Asa saved his life.
......
"--I've already seen Devine according to your advice. ”
As soon as they returned to the Sky Mansion, Freya couldn't wait to greet them in person, and of course, more than just to greet them. Without waiting for them to explain their plans, Freya spoke to herself.
"The continent of Kadorissa has been ruled by our Wind Spirit Family and Snow Spirit Family together for a long time, and if the relationship between the families is ruined because of Daphne's affairs, I think ...... I don't want that anyway. As long as Devany admits that she did it wrong...... That, anyway, I ...... I'm going to give Alcatia City back to Daphne. ”
Freya's eyes never looked at Ivan or Asa as she spoke, and her steps were fast.
"Is it okay for me to do that?" she said, stopping suddenly.
"Yes, there are still many things to trouble you in the future, Her Majesty. Asa said. Freya jerked back, her eyes wide as if she were ...... It's not a tantrum, although his face is flushed, but his eyes are very ...... Firmness.
"You're talking about Maureen's poems? Didn't I say that, she could stay here...... Even if others don't understand, she's different from the demons written in the book. I also decided to help her, as long as she said ...... If she needs my help. ”
"Okay. Asa looked relieved, "Also, there are some things that I hope to get permission from Her Majesty the Queen." ”
"What, what? Why are you in so much trouble...... Ah no, you, you say ......" Freya put on a stern expression again.
"Let's go to the tea-room, because it's going to be long, and Ivan will come too. After all, this is something that has something to do with our human country and the Feather Clan......"
......
Outside the window, it was pitch black.
The boy's hands slowly pushed open the dark golden door. The pattern engraved on the door is a very intricate symmetrical pattern, like a large tree closely connected to its reflection.
He stepped inside the door and slowly closed it.
It was also pitch black inside, as if in the depths of darkness, something reflected a faint light.
"Angel ......" Artel Hernos stared intently at the long light brown hair wrapped around his fingers, and in this empty research room, he felt as if he was really missing some part of his body, and even if his body was not painful, his heart was very uncomfortable. It was a very strong sense of absence, and he couldn't escape it.
Because Angel is the only thing that really belongs to him! It wasn't until he lost Angel that Artel gradually realized in a trance that he didn't have nothing before. Until the last moment, Angel was saving for him.
Now there is nothing, not even Angel.
"Come back......" he muttered dumbfounded, to the long hair in his hand. Maybe he had planned that one day he would abandon Angel for his own purposes, but now he only felt empty. He lost Angel, but what was the point? Asa didn't die, he didn't do anything.
Even Maureen's poems ...... Even Maureen was on her brother's side......
Will not betray, is it only Angel?
"I'll get you back, no matter what...... Either way...... Come back...... Angel...... Come back......" Artel clenched the long hair in her hand, and Angel's delicate voice seemed to ring in her ears again.
-- Because...... My wish...... I've done it, and now I'm just here to fulfill Yatel's wishes.
However, my wish has not yet been fulfilled.
So, you can't leave me yet......
Give me back!
