When Xavier saw Wendy's arrival, he only felt a great confusion in his heart, and he didn't understand the feeling.

From the moment he met the woman in red on the bridge, he had already guessed the answer to the shattered illusion and solve the problem, which was to help her named Wendy Covind.

Otherwise, why would she keep showing those clues in the illusion, in order to lift her curse, there is no logical error in thinking about this.

And Xavier, who can be regarded as having completed this task perfectly, defeated Dirac Abraham at the earliest point in time, which will naturally change everything that happened later, and the woman in red will no longer suffer the curse, will no longer gain the power of the vampire, and the curse will be successfully lifted.

Then, the ensuing illusion should also be shattered in an instant.

But now, what Xavier sees is that the illusion still exists, he has not completed the task at all, and the woman in red, Wendy Covinde, is still in front of his eyes, still on the bridge, and everything seems to be back to square one.

Xavier's mentality, there is a kind of explosive turmoil, like a lot of hard work to find the answer, but telling him that this is only the answer to the first level.

He believed that no matter who it was, in the face of such a situation, he would want to break down and shout at this time.

But he was a rational man after all, and he quickly calmed himself down and began to think calmly, not letting his emotions interfere with his judgment, especially his impatient thoughts.

Because he knows that impatience often does not solve the problem, but will make things change and go in a bad direction.

Therefore, maintaining an optimistic attitude is the only essential element to deal with difficulties.

With his eyes fixed, Xavier saw that the faint moonlight was like a thin veil, lightly covering the body of the woman in red.

She was already a woman, and for some reason she was standing here, and for some reason, her eyes were wavering, looking under the bridge, and she didn't even notice Xavier, who was silently observing from a distance.

This also drew Xavier's attention to the fact that the curse did seem to have been lifted, and he remembered that when they met, the woman in red quickly couldn't suppress the madness brought to her by the vampire's blood, and attacked Xavier uncontrollably.

And this time, she behaved more like a lovelorn woman than a blood slave ready to step into the abyss of madness, less of that madness, more of a miserable sadness.

In this way, Xavier's previous judgment was not wrong, at least in terms of lifting the curse, he did it, and freed the woman in red from her restraints.

He just didn't lift the other 'curses' that followed, or regrets, so that the illusion could not be broken.

And what that regret is, Xavier already has a certain guess about it, and is ready to conduct an empirical verification through the girl in front of him.

The first step is to continue to observe.

In his eyes, Xavier saw that Wendy was already on the bridge, holding on to the railing, and looked at the bottom of the bridge for dozens of seconds.

It was a contemplative gaze, no pear blossom drizzle, no sad face, more dumbfounded, calmly standing in one place.

The red dress, a conservative dress, does not have the enthusiasm that the color should have on her body, but it is like the scene before the blood, crimson on the spot.

Coupled with the dim moonlight, Xavier can understand the pain without worrying.

And when the sorrow was hidden in her heart and could not be released for a long time, Wendy finally chose to make sense, she lifted the hem of her skirt, sat on the railing, looked down at the distant scenery again, and then turned her gaze back to her feet, ready to jump away from the material world.

But at this moment, a word from a man interfered with her thoughts, and Wendy turned her head to see a cold, dark-haired swordsman, looking at her calmly.

"You're Wendy Korvind, right? I know who you are, and I know what troubles you have in your heart right now. When the man came, he said very strange things to her.

"So what?" Wendy's legs swayed gently by the bridge, "Are you here to persuade me not to commit suicide?"

"Yes. Xavier nodded, "I hope you can calm down and refrain from committing suicidal acts." ”

"But. "Since you know what happened to me, you should know why I jumped, right?"

"After all, I've lost my pursuit of life, I can't understand why Ron would abandon me for a title, and I don't want to understand, in that case, it's better to get rid of it directly, unless, I can see him in person"

"Then you can go, I have nothing more to say. Xavier didn't know whether he was using the agitation method at the moment, or venting the anger in his heart, "Since you feel that your life is so cheap that you can sacrifice for a man, you should be directly relieved at this moment." ”

"Well, you have a point. Wendy smiled bitterly, and then, right in front of Xavier, jumped lightly, sinking to the bottom of the water, with no intention of surfacing out.

Xavier, on the other hand, had no intention of obstructing him, and even followed her footsteps and jumped down.

~~~~~~

When Xavier woke up again, what he felt was a large patch of sunlight, a very dazzling sunlight, which brought him infinite warmth, the effect of heat.

At the same time, the sky was cloudless, and it was the end of March when Vasilyki's weather was supposed to be, skipping the humidity of spring and heading straight for summer.

That's why, also in March, the villagers of Gournia wear more dense clothes, while Vasiliki is full of summer scenery, with short skirts and short sleeves everywhere.

However, for Xavier at present, what he thinks and pays attention to is not these, but the weather he feels, because they tell him that the current point in time is no longer the strange dark night of the illusion, but has become a sunny day in reality, and it also marks that he has successfully escaped the illusion and returned to reality.

He succeeded in committing suicide to make Viscount Wallace outside aware that something was wrong, so as to take him out of the bridge, and the illusion shattered itself.

However, regarding Wendy's problem, Xavier still didn't help her solve it, not that he didn't want to help her solve it, but in the course of the conversation between the two, Wendy hinted at him that the real illusion shattering method.

That is to bring the real-life Ron Covind to the bridge, take him into the fantasy world in person, and talk to Wendy in the fantasy world.

In this way, Wendy's two wishes can be perfectly fulfilled and the illusion will be completely shattered, which is why Xavier returned to the real world just now, he wants to personally invite the Count to come with him!

As for whether the former viscount would agree to Xavier's request, Xavier said that it didn't matter, he could use force to force him to come, and naturally he would not worry about any failure.

Of course, as a civilized man, he tends to use more civilized means, such as reasoning, or the Mark of Aksi, and violent means will only be used after Count Ron refuses to listen to reason.

As Xavier heard his name shouting from the master next to him, he ended his thoughts and told the demon hunter what had happened in the illusion.

And Viscount Wallace was also quite shocked that one thing could be so twisted and turned, it was just like the content of it.

Especially when Xavier pointed out that he had defeated Dirac Abraham, the experienced witcher refused to believe it at first, and then chose to shake his head directly, and after a round of analysis, he said

"You can't defeat him so easily, the vampire's regeneration ability is unimaginable, it can only be said that he was defeated by you in the illusion. ”

"To put it simply, the Dirac you defeated in it is not a real Dirac, and the people in it are not real people, including the Viscount Ron, who is all shaped by Wendy Covinde, a second-generation vampire, through memory. ”

"And the reason why you can talk to Dirac inside is because the first generation of vampires can influence the second generation of vampires through their own abilities after obtaining the second generation of vampires by giving blood, so you can talk to the real Dirac, but what you defeated is just a phantom, can you understand?"

"Probably understand, that is, he is not the real Dirac. Xavier bowed, "And I defeated him only to free Wendy, not really to end her vampire powers." ”

"Yes, it's good to understand. "Viscount Wallace was glad that his apprentice had made such rapid progress

"Everything is just a fantasy, in order to get rid of the regret, Wendy Covinde, a second-generation vampire, constantly forms an illusion in the place where she attempted suicide, that is, this bridge, she hopes that this illusion can attract people who come and help her solve all her problems. ”

"And the first step is to get rid of her blood demons, what you have experienced should be true, whether it is Dirac disguised as a doctor, or when Ron was about to 'abandon' her, Dirac forcibly injected her power, both of these things are real. ”

"Unfortunately, in the real world, there is no such person as you who can solve her on the spot, she has become a half-vampire, unable to control her madness, and has hurt some people because of it, forcing her to want to kill herself, but she has not been able to do what she wants, she can only merge with this bridge through some means, and through the way to kill Dirac in the illusion, she deceives her crazy character, makes her feel that the vampire's energy has been successfully suppressed, so as to achieve a return to reason, and tells you her last regret。 ”

"That is, to see Ron again, and to be human. "Xavier completes the story for Viscount Wallace.

"Yes, so it's obvious what we're going to do next, let's find that Earl Ron and see what he has to say. Viscount Wallace quickly set his course for the rest of the day.

"Hehe, hopefully he'll welcome us. Xavier couldn't help but smile.

"He didn't dare not welcome us. Viscount Wallace gathered his things and walked with Xavier in the direction of the village of Imu.

~~~~~~

Originally, Xavier and Viscount Wallace just wanted to go back to the village to rectify it, so they didn't waste any more time and went directly to the earl.

As a result, things turned out to their surprise, and when they returned to the village, they saw that the villagers were clashing with a bunch of people, shouting to each other in Vasiliki that Xavier did not understand, and they could only ask Viscount Wallace to give him a simple translation.

Specifically, the Minoan Empire came to collect taxes again, and the local lord of Imu needed more minerals to pay the taxes he needed, so he sent his men to 'request' these villagers to help him and take enough minerals.

What his subordinates didn't expect was that this group of peasants, who had always been more honest, actually knew how to resist, and they expressed their intention to refuse to the lord's request.

Naturally, the subordinates could not sit idly by and watch such a thing happen, and conflicts were inevitable.

In fact, under normal circumstances, even if the villagers are reluctant, they will go to 'help', after all, no one wants to conflict with the lord.

However, if you remember, last time, it was because all the young people in the village went to help with the mining, so there were not enough people to help take care of the village, which led to a successful sneak attack by ghouls, and there were many casualties among the people who stayed in the village.

This cast a shadow on them, and even made them regret that they did not want to see another thing of the same kind happen, even if Viscount Wallace had told them that they had exterminated the ghouls in the neighborhood, and they were afraid that there would be a group of undiscovered monsters waiting for the men to leave, and then they would come and harm their children.

Therefore, no matter how much the lords ask for it, their reaction will be to refuse, to resist is to rebel, it is a risk anyway, why not rebel against the tyranny they have endured?

Of course, in Xavier's eyes, there should be separatists behind this, and if there is no incitement, the honest villagers would not dare to go out and resist like this, and there must be someone who is encouraging all this to cause such a conflict.

It's just that now, he and the viscount don't bother to pay attention, and even want to help the villagers.

Because the lord of this place, the so-called Earl of Iam, is Ron Covind, Wendy's husband back then.
