Chapter 158 Fight here! on
When Richard appeared on the floating island, Elle had already arrived a day early. Richard placed the meeting place for Ellie in the Akmund family cemetery, which was one of the most solemn ways for Ackmund to meet each other.
When she stepped on the volcano that could erupt at any moment, Ellie looked quite emotional. She walked, watched, and read the names and life stories on the tombstones, and she didn't miss any of them.
Richard, on the other hand, was extremely patient, following behind Ellie and checking the epitaph with her, without any hint of urging. Richard had already entered the family cemetery more than once, and it can be said that every inch of it had been engraved in Richard's heart. But every time I read the words on those tombstones, it is as if I have seen the life of generations of Akmund who fought bloodily.
This is a strange family, but also a family full of contradictions and chaos. Each of them tries to break with tradition in every possible way, but at the same time is deeply obsessed with it. No matter how many powerful bloodlines have been mixed with the surname Akmund over the years, in the end the most powerful ones still chose the blazing volcanic breath.
Finally, the two of them reached the top of the volcano, the place that all the real Akmunds yearn for. Here, each tombstone bears only the real names of the owners. Compared to the real name, the experience and glory of life are no longer important.
Ellie gently caressed a tombstone, and her face unexpectedly showed a hint of sentimentality. To Richard's surprise, when her fingers ran over the long section of her real name, a small part of it flickered.
At this moment, Richard was really surprised: "You also awakened your real name?"
Ellie didn't look back and said, "Yes." Actually, there is nothing surprising about it, every Akmund should have the potential to awaken his true name, but only a true madman will get the power that lurks in the depths of his bloodline and have his own bloodline. ”
Richard crouched down beside Ellie and said, "You seem to be particularly interested in this tombstone." ”
"This is ......" Ellie's voice became soft and complex, "He is the ancestor of my lineage more than three hundred years ago. Strictly speaking, my blood is inherited from him. He was the wise man of demons and the orderly of chaos, and because of this, he was not tolerated by many of the Akmunds who adhered to chaos. If it weren't for his strength and his real name, which was recognized by the bloodline, then he would not have had a place in the family cemetery. But his existence is not tolerated by many people. Enemies come not only from outside the clan, but also from within the clan. In the final battle of that year, he marched alone, and he should have made a perfect surprise attack, but he was unexpectedly ambushed by the enemy with absolutely superior forces, and finally the whole army was annihilated. It was my great-grandmother who betrayed him. ”
Richard was stunned, this is another secret that will eventually be buried in history. After Ellie, I don't know who else will remember him, the wise man of demons.
"What's your real name?" Richard regretted it as soon as the words came out. Her real name is every Akmund's biggest secret, and asking for Ellie's real name means that she will be under her control in the future. How can it be?
Ellie's reaction was not as big as Richard expected, she just sighed lightly and said, "Richard, now is not the time. When the time comes, I'll sue you. ”
It was a surprise answer from Richard, more surprising than a direct rejection or even a scolding. Richard thought for a moment, showed a cautious expression, and asked, "When was that?"
Ellie closed her eyes, and the young goddess of war showed a deep look of tiredness, and said, "When I feel completely tired." ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you. Richard said.
A person like Ellie, who can be completely trusted, is incomparably precious. So far, there is no shortage of strong men under Richard, only a general who can defend one side alone. Gangde is one, but it is only barely qualified. The big guys are quite experienced in using soldiers, but they are not yet famous generals who can create miracles.
Erijie raised her head, looked at Richard, and said, "Richard, tell me about you, and give me some more confidence." ”
"Is it the confidence that chose me as a partner?" asked Richard with a smile.
"Not exactly, but almost. ”
Richard shrugged and asked, "Isn't what I've accomplished now?"
Ellie Jie glanced at Richard, smiled, and said, "Seventeenth-level Grand Magician? ”
"I'm still a royal architect!" said Richard.
Ellie shook her head and said, "I know, but it's not enough. ”
"Isn't enough?" Richard was a little surprised, and said, "Life is a matter of my own hands, I can still tailor a second-order suit for people, don't confuse me with Luneau's kind of waste!"
Ellie sighed softly again, raised her face, looked at Richard, and said, "Richard, I'm really hesitant and a little scared now. So I hope you can give me more confidence, more reasons, for me to be able to take that step. And it's not like Luneau that you're looking for, it's ...... Your father. I remember the first time I visited the family cemetery, which was sacred to every Akmund. But...... But I saw that he was sitting on a tombstone on the top floor, very casually and naturally. As if he was born to sit there. I was very young at the time, but I can't forget that scene. ”
Richard was stunned, and recalled the first time Gordon had led him into the family cemetery. However, his thoughts at the time were different from Ellie's, and little Richard at that time only wanted to kick Gordon into the volcano.
Since it was compared with Gordon, Richard couldn't help but straighten his body slightly, and his mood at the moment was indescribably complicated.
He sorted out his thoughts for a moment and said, "I have a great deal of confidence in constructing and advancing to the rank of Saint Constructor, as for magic, it is not clear whether I can become a legendary mage, but at least there is no problem with the Grand Magister." I now control the two planes in my hands, and the total income will be stable at more than 10 million per year. It's hard to say what he's capable of war, but at least you can see that Raymond kid was wiped out under my hands, although there was an element of bad luck here. ”
"Sounds great, but be careful not to be assassinated. Ellie poured a basin of cold water on Richard's head.
However, she didn't know that Richard had already been to the Desperate Battlefield and had successfully walked to the capital where the sun never set. In the past, many Sanctuaries had fallen on the way to the Legion Fortress for the first time when they set foot on the Peerless Battlefield and rushed to the Legion Fortress. Richard, who can survive the Desperate Battlefield, is no longer so easy to kill.
After listening to Richard's experience, Ellie finally nodded and said, "That's enough." ”
Richard also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Actually, I think my most important trait is that I already have a strong heart. ”
Ellie nodded as well.
Richard actually has a lot of secrets, such as the brood, such as his two major talents. However, he and Ellie Jie are actually still in the stage of negotiating the covenant, so naturally they can't reveal all their hole cards.
"Now, then, what is your decision?" asked Richard.
Alyselle had regained her usual calm and decisiveness, and said, "Align, mate." ”
"Partner? Richard frowned. He now had a headache with the ancient traditions of Akmund.
"I always have to fulfill my obligations, and I don't want the other party to affect the covenant between us. In addition, if there is that kind of relationship between men and women, the feeling is still different. So, it's not difficult for me, as long as I don't hate you, that's enough. ”
Ellie said indifferently, but her body was a little stiff.
Richard thought for a moment, and he really didn't want to push Ellie into the arms of others. Once you have a child, it's a bond that is hard to break. So he nodded and said, "Okay, that's it." When to make a covenant and hold a partner's ...... Ritual?"
Ellie leaned forward, put her hand on Richard's heart, and said, "Our covenant is only here and there is no need to write it on paper that is completely unreliable." If both parties have intentions, then the covenant will naturally last forever. As for the partner, I don't think I need to choose another time and place, just here!"
"Here?" Richard looked around in surprise. As far as the eye can see, there are black rocks everywhere, the sky is dark red, the air is filled with the smell of sulfur, and hundreds of tombstones have nothing to do with the word fragrant. No matter how you look at it, it's not a great place to get excited.
"Right here!" Ellie became unusually resolute, "Isn't it fitting that two Akmunds fulfill their ancient duties on the family holy land?"
Seeing Ellie's fire-breathing eyes and her short red hair, which was about to stand on end, Richard really couldn't find a reason to refute her. But the impression that the goddess of war gave him in the past was really not like someone who would say such things.
"That'...... Here it is!" Richard finally nodded.
Ellie straightened up and said coldly, "Then you can't come and undress me?"
Richard opened his mouth to say, "There's nothing wrong with that, is it?" but didn't really say it.
Ellie stood tall and stood like a spear stuck in the ground.
When Richard first arrived in Faust, Ellijie was half a head taller than him, but now in Richard, several years have passed, and now Richard has surpassed Ellijie by half a head, and his body has become more robust and powerful. This is mainly the egg of the hydra lizard, and the result of Philip's meal.
After many battles and the baptism of the Peerless Battlefield, Richard is no longer weaker than others in terms of momentum, and because he has experienced the artistic conception of life, Richard is actually compelling to kill, just because of the natural bloodline of the elves, it is well disguised.
