62. Helpless

"Your Excellency...... It's great that you're okay!"

After landing on the ground, Byrne hurried towards the place where his mansion once was, and met the city guards who were locking down the area outside the quarantine circle.

"It's not good at all! Forget it, why are you talking about this now...... Don't be stunned here! Quickly organize people to increase the intensity of patrols within the city, and then send me a team to go to the underground waterways with me!"

"Then ...... here"

Now that my mansion has completely disappeared from this world, don't be stupid and gather here again - there are more important things for you to do!"

Byrne is also very anxious now-God knows if these "compatriots" who have torn their faces will be crazy to blast into the underground waterways at this time...... If they really did this, Byrne would not have been able to evacuate the crowd, and once such a large number of people began to flee in panic, the people did not evacuate much, and there would be a large number of unnecessary stampedes and accidental injuries. What's more, at that time, there was chaos, and it was even more difficult for his city guards to move in the chaotic crowd.

Fortunately, Aisha's series of actions just now only took less than a minute, and under the cover of night and lights, it didn't seem to attract much attention...... After Byrne calmed down, he also understood the reason why Aisha wanted to use the power of thunder to extinguish the flesh monster in the first place.

The monster that will continue to devour everything around it will definitely not be able to stop it with the strength of the city guards, and it will inevitably spread when the time comes. In the end, it caused fear and confusion among the population. And now, this terrible monster was culled in the first place. Not only did it solve the worries, but it also left enough time for Bourne to turn around and mobilize the forces in the city.

"I'm going to the Mage Guild right now to apply for assistance. The situation of underground water roads there...... I'll leave it to you now!" Byrne instructed the squad leader on the scene, "remember to divide into three groups, one large, two small, if none of the first group will be able to come back after half an hour of searching the underground waterways...... Remember! Half an hour! One of the other two groups stayed on guard, and the other quickly contacted the other city guards to evacuate the people in the city—at this very moment, I don't think there are some rules that need not be emphasized, right? For example, there are cases where the old men squeeze out the women and girls......

"Got it, sir!"

Although none of the people present understood what had happened, whether it was the terrible scene that had happened before or the seriousness of the city lord now, it all explained that this sudden attack had occurred...... It's so dangerous.

"And one more thing! If you find a suspicious guy in the city, don't startle the snake. As long as the other party does not take the initiative to attack, everything is based on the safety of the people! After a period of time, the mages of the association will participate in this battle together! If you understand, let's go!"

After Byrne explained this, he immediately headed in the direction of the Mage Guild - the stakes were high, and the assistance of the Mage Guild and the Imperial Speaker was required.

[Hopefully the situation doesn't turn into the worst......]

===============

"Yan Yu-chan, what's wrong with you?"

Lin found that Yan Yu suddenly turned his head to look at the top of the sky, and his gaze seemed to pass through the barrier of the ceiling at the top and cast it into the distant night sky.

"Just now...... I felt a familiar feeling in the sky. ”

Although the words sounded a little hesitant and confused, Yan Yu's face did not show any melancholy - she was very convinced. That feeling wasn't my own delusion!

"Feeling familiar?"

Lin and Sarisi looked at Yan Yu for some reason, but Xia seemed to think of something, and thoughtfully set her eyes on the night sky above the roof.

[Since the kid said so...... It seems that my previous feelings were not delusional, huh?]

Xia didn't feel anything familiar like Yan Yu, just now. She just felt a tingling in her brain. At the time, she thought it was her own body, but now it seems that maybe. The thing that stings your head is the same thing that makes Yan Yu perceive?

Then. In the not spacious room, there was suddenly an extra person.

"Wet sauce!"

Familiar clothing and breath. Lin immediately recognized the identity of the girl who appeared suddenly. Just as Lin was about to step forward to welcome Aisha back, what happened next left Lin stunned......

Aisha didn't stand on the ground steadily, but slammed directly into Rin's body, causing her to fall to the ground as well.

The moment Aisha crashed into her arms, Lin immediately felt that something was wrong - could it be that someone like Aisha would slip and fall on the ground when she walked through the space?

Thinking of this, Lin hurriedly looked into her arms.

"Wet sauce, you ...... this?"

Aisha, who has always been calm and unhurried, is unusually pale at the moment, and her breathing is very rapid. Seeing Aisha's appearance, Rin's first reaction was - she was injured!?

"Ah, it's a bit of a joke...... It's hard to put it into words, Lin, you help me stand up first. ”

Aisha looked really weak, and Lin quickly helped Aisha get up from the ground and walked to the chair for Aisha to sit down.

"Aisha-senpai! you...... Hurt?"

Among the people present, Yan Yu and Lin all had this almost adoring attitude towards Aisha, and Yan Yu was also very nervous about how embarrassed Aisha, who was incomparably powerful in his mind, was now.

"Gong ...... Senior, what are you doing now......" When Salis saw Aisha's current weak appearance, she immediately thought of all kinds of things that had happened in the city recently, and she knew Aisha's ability...... A bad premonition came to Salis's mind.

"Something is wrong, you two better hurry up and help the old man Skasana, if he is alone. Maybe it really won't be able to do it......"

"But Aisha-senpai, doesn't it matter if you're injured, although I'm stupid, I'm still very good at treating injuries!"

"You see I have neither external nor internal injuries on my body. It's just a little out of strength, and it's okay to ......."

"That's not right!" Yan Yu categorically interrupted Aisha's defense. "Senior is hurt! I can feel it! Senior, don't lie to me anymore!"

"Yan Yu sauce......" Lin heard Yan Yu's words, and looked at Aisha's body in disbelief - obviously Aisha had no wounds on her body, but why was she so sure that Aisha was injured? Lin thought about it, if there was no real injury, could the so-called "detachment" make Aisha so weak?

"Wet sauce, you must not hold it hard!"

PIA——

Aisha stretched out her finger and flicked Lynn's forehead, "I'm not there yet...... Okay, I did get hurt a little, but it wasn't a big deal - well, for someone like me, if I said it. You two can rest assured, right?"

"But ......"

Yan Yu, who knew Aisha's current physical condition, was still a little uneasy, however, at this time, a voice that made her annoying interjected.

"If she can't even deal with her own little injury, then she won't be the master and senior of the two of you...... Don't throw away faith at such a time. ”

Xia rubbed his temples helplessly with his fingers.

"Damn, what are you bad people talking about, I ......"

Halfway through Yan Yu's words, his collar was grabbed by Saris.

"She's right, since you trust your senior so much, you should trust her at this time...... Think about it from another perspective, Yan Yu, you yourself will be injured and there is no danger around you. Do you choose to hold on and not go for treatment?"

"Hmm......"

"Salis-chan, you'd better be faster, it's a lot of trouble this time...... I think that Bourne guy is already in the association and applying for help, right? You two should go and help your teacher as soon as possible...... That's right, Lynn. This time you go with you. ”

Aisha suddenly said to Lyn, who was sitting next to her.

"Eh, I don't want to! I don't want to leave you at this time......" As soon as she heard about Aisha's arrangement, Lin expressed her dissatisfaction on the spot - at this time, shouldn't she as a disciple stick to her master and take care of her?

PIA——

"It hurts!"

Lin covered her forehead and looked aggrievedly at Aisha, who had played her again. looked at Lynn's aggrieved appearance. Aisha swallowed the words she was about to utter and sighed. Instead, he reached out and stroked Lynn's head.

"Well, actually. I would also like to experience what it is like to be intimately cared for and served by a lovely disciple......" Rin, who was comforted by Aisha's words and actions, quickly quieted down, "It's just that this time the stakes are very high, and the amount of power you have is very important—even if Salis and Yan Yu are together, it may not be as important as you alone. ”

Aisha's words made Lin stunned.

"The innocent people of this city need you more than I need now, so go ahead. ”

“...... Got it, but you're going to assure me that you're okay with your body!"

"You girl...... "Lin stared at her with a serious expression, her eyes widened, which made Aisha want to laugh out loud, "Don't worry, I'm not a dying old man who needs meticulous care, and besides, I think this kind and kind Xia Jiang here will be happy to shoulder your original task~"

Aisha smiled and pointed to Natsu, who was facing black lines on the side.

"Hey, don't make your own decisions......" Xia was about to refute, but in the double sight attack of Lin and Yan Yu, he was inevitably shocked by the aura of the two for a while.

"Is it really okay to let this bad guy come? I always felt that she was better suited to a butcher shop than a nanny. ”

Yan Yu opened Xia with a suspicious gaze, while mercilessly pouring vicious verbal attacks on her.

"You little ghost, don't get too carried away...... Do you need me to show you the skills of a true caregiver?"

Seeing that Yan Yu and Xia were about to start pinching each other again, Lin hurriedly grabbed Salis and Yan Yu and rushed out of the door one by one.

"Wet sauce! I'll go!"

"Wait! I'm going to hold my sister's hand......"

......

"Lynn looks clingy to you. ”

After a while, Xia said in a sour tone - looking at Lin's attitude towards Aisha, Xia himself wanted to find a cute, well-behaved and smart Lori disciple.

"Uh-huh!" Aisha puffed out her chest proudly. "Good apprentice, don't you want one?"

"I want to, too, but in my current situation...... If you really bring a disciple. That's undoubtedly hurting her, isn't it? Follow me, life is unstable. and will face all kinds of dangers...... The most important thing is that what she learned from me was not enough to stand in the sun. So forget it......"

Natsu shook his head and threw the unrealistic fantasy out of his mind.

"Now that they're gone, can you tell me about your condition? After all, the most troublesome child has also been separated by you. ”

"There's no way, if Lin Zhilu is told about my current situation, she will definitely be scared of the six gods, and then in the future, she will become a point where she refuses to leave my side for half a step, right? Speaking of which, Xia you should also see it yourself. I'm in ...... right now."

"It's because there are some rough outlines, so I can't believe it, and I hope to get a definite answer from your mouth. ”

"Exactly the answer? This is really a troublesome topic......" Aisha pressed her temples helplessly, "Trouble Xia-chan, can you pour me a glass of water?"

"You're really welcome. ”

Xia reluctantly went to pour Aisha a glass of water.

Aisha took a sip of water and said slowly, "If you want to elaborate, it will go back a long time......

"Can you please explain it in a nutshell......"

"My soul is torn apart, so it's incomplete, and rightfully so, I'm in a constant state of 'wounded'...... Well. Xia, what's wrong with you?"

At this moment, Xia's expression seemed to freeze, and the cup she was holding in her hand that wanted to hold water for herself had been pinched by her unconsciously. I didn't say a word for a while.

After a long time, Xia finally came back to his senses: "Ahem, I'm sorry...... I think I was too self-righteous before. Speculating about your condition - it turns out that I was thinking too well. ”

Originally, Xia thought that Aisha's situation should be an old wound on the soul level. As a result, Aisha said that a piece of her soul had been cut off a long time ago...... This statement is not the same as the mitotic pattern of "separation", which is a direct tear that is close to physicality. But it's not so tepid, and the severed part is gone forever!

Generally speaking, if there is some defect in the soul, it will basically cause the intellectual obstacle of the person - such as the case of intellectual hardness...... Like Aisha, she calmly indicates that her soul is incomplete, and she is still alive and well, and she also has super strength...... Eldest sister, are you going against the sky?

"That's a little weird to you......"

Xia couldn't help but complain in his heart - no, everyone except you looks so weird!

"In your opinion, the loss of a part of your soul is irreversible, and it will also cause serious trauma that will never make progress in the future. However, my situation is more special, I only became the level I am now after my soul was damaged......"

"Poof!"

Xia couldn't hold back the feelings in his heart, and the water he had just drunk squirted out in one gulp.

Now, Aisha's realm is already the level she needs to look up to, and Aisha tells her that this is still the level after her strength has plummeted...... Xia definitely wouldn't have wondered what Lu Dao would become if he was now robbed of a part of his soul - not to mention how much strength he had left, he was already very fortunate that he didn't become a natural person who stepped on his left foot and fell flat on his right foot!

Sure enough, Aisha is here to show off, right?

"Senior...... When you say that, I suddenly feel that my future is so slim......"

"Well,Actually, your previous posture as a reference object is a mistake in itself......" Aisha looked at Xia with a devastated look, and comforted, "That's an out-of-specification type, and there's no need to compare - because that kind of me doesn't just live for myself, so as an independent life Xia, you might as well use the current me as a reference." ”

"Huh?"

Natsu was dazzled by Aisha's words.

As smart as she was, she couldn't figure out the meaning of what Aisha said for a while.

"Imagine that I am already standing at the apex of 'wind' now, right? Even the so-called gods of the wind may not be able to defeat me in the realm of wind...... Then you try to imagine that I am going further in the field of the wind. ”

Xia couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed - further up? This is not a human ...... at all Or is it not the realm that intelligent life can attain at all? a realm beyond the "gods"......

A power that is more powerful than that of a god......

“...... Senior, are you Gui Geng this year?"

Natsu suddenly asked Aisha thoughtlessly.

"More than you think it's the limit...... It's a little further away, right?"

"Well, I think I can understand what you're talking about—it's an unimaginable honor...... Suddenly, I felt that Lin, who could become a disciple of your predecessors, was so happy. ”

Speaking of this, Xia suddenly hesitated. Since Aisha told herself about her past, what caused her soul to be divided alive......

"As you can imagine, that part of my soul was unloaded by myself. ”

Aisha's tone was very calm, but Xia couldn't feel how many bland feelings were hidden in this sentence - for Aisha to behave like this, it must be her goal that she thinks must be achieved no matter what, even if she goes through the most painful torture, right?

What it was like to tear apart his soul by himself, Xia couldn't imagine it at all.

"So, for that reason, I can't even get together with my old friends too much now......" Aisha waved her hand to tear open the space again, and took out the spear she considered an old friend.

Xia's gaze was instantly swallowed up by the spear that shone with a pale blue light.

Unfortunately, she hadn't seen enough, so Aisha put it back again.

"Can you imagine that my comrade-in-arms who was born and died with me before had become what it is now after I held it for less than a minute...... My soul can't handle its quality anymore. ”

The corners of Aisha's mouth showed a helpless wry smile. (To be continued......)
