"Uh-huh...... We're still friends......" Riel finally let out a long sigh of relief when he heard Alan's answer, and his frowning face gradually relaxed, revealing a few inconspicuous but satisfied smiles.

Belch...... At the same time, I am a little embarrassed......

After all...... Belch...... It seems that Alan's words are a little too sensational?

"Oh, oh, oh!" said old Adrian, who seemed to see through Riel's thoughts, and suddenly walked in the direction he had been coming, "I almost forgot!

Only then did a few people remember that it was not only Alan and Riel who had fallen just now, but also Cecilis.

They hurried to the tree next to the swamp.

"Is she alright?" asked Ariel, after a brief diagnosis from Old Adrian.

"It's not a big deal, just a temporary coma, and it hasn't been affected by your magic. Old Adrian said.

"How long will it take for her to wake up?" asked Riel.

"It won't be long, don't worry. She just seemed overworked. Old Adrian smiled and said, "Why, is this girl important to you?"

"Uh...... Probably...... Isn't it......" Riel blushed and didn't ask any further questions.

At this time, only a clear hissing sound was heard, and a black shadow swept through the air and slowly fell beside them.

"Arthur!" Alan waved excitedly at it.

It also slightly arched its head in response to Allen.

Then it tilted its head again, stared at Riel for a long time, and slowly walked over.

"Oh!" Rare stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.

"Haha!" Old Adrian laughed when he saw this, "it seems that it is finally willing to come close to you." ”

Arthur also flapped his wings excitedly on the side.

"Alan's magic seems to work...... Your demons have been driven out. "Arthur can't afford to have someone like that." ”

As soon as the elder Adrian finished speaking, Arthur pushed his head against Lariel again, and pulled him aside with his sharp beak, as if trying to keep him away from Cecilis.

By this time, Cecilis had also woken up.

"Kill him......" Cecilis' first words when she opened her eyes were this. Weak, but clear.

Riel hurried over to her and helped her sit up, leaning on his shoulder.

"Kill him...... Rare ......," Cecilis said again, "only kill him...... to reflect your abilities...... The value of your existence ......"

Cecilis' eyes were half-open, her eyes empty, and she stared at Riel a little blankly.

When Riel heard this, he suddenly became a little excited, and his expression was extremely heavy.

"You're not Cecili...... "Rare said through gritted teeth, "you're not the Cecilis I know...... She wouldn't say anything like that...... Persuade me...... Kill someone else or something......"

"Ahem...... Cecilis coughed violently after hearing this, and also seemed a little excited, and grabbed Riel by the collar tightly, "Kill him...... Fast...... As long as he's here, you're not going to be happy......"

"I refuse!" said Riel, clasping her hand, "you...... Say no more. ”

"She seems to have fallen under some kind of magic......," said old Adrian, after careful observation, his face rather ugly, "I don't know what kind of magic it is, but she is in this state...... Much like ...... That case ......"

"That'...... Just let me try it. Saying that, Alan also came to Cecilis's side, and his fingers still emitted the same light as just now, "It should work." ”

Perhaps the light was too harsh, and Cecilis struggled to push Eren away, but ultimately failed due to weakness.

Alan placed his index finger on her forehead, and with a slight click, the spot of light disappeared into her forehead and quickly disappeared.

"Hmm......"

Cecilis closed her eyes in a little pain, struggled a few more times, and then lay on her shoulder and didn't move. It took a long time to open his eyes again.

"This is ......" Cecilis opened her eyes again and it took her long time to see her surroundings clearly, "Where ......"

"Is that you?" Riel quickly asked, "Hey, look at me." ”

"Hmm...... Connor...... Senpai?" Cecilis sat up with her hands propped up. It seems that not only the spirit, but also the strength has recovered a lot.

"And Senior Paterna and ...... Sister Dalke?" Cecilis looked dazed and looked around again, "Where the hell is this......

"Don't you remember...... "Ryel asked, "the triple trial, and how you made it to the second round?"

"Me?" Cecilis asked with a look of disbelief, "I made it to the second round?"

"yes, this is the inside of the second round. ”

"I ......," Cecilis shook her head after trying to think about it for a long time, "I don't know when I remembered nothing, it was as if I was asleep, and I had a dream...... It's a long, long dream......"

Several people looked at each other, but they didn't speak.

"It seems like a dark shadow has been hovering in my head...... "Acting for me, speaking for me......"

Alan was stunned when he heard this, realized something, and quickly asked, "What does he look like!?"

"This ...... I don......'t know," Cecilise shook her head, "I'm dazed and can't see anything...... He seemed to have his back to me, and only the occasional voice could be heard......"

"Sure enough, it's a different magic ......," Alan said.

"What different magic?" asked Riel.

"The magic that made you like that, and the magic ......that controlled her," Alan said with a serious face, "are two different kinds of magic...... While there are similarities, they are not all the same...... She doesn't remember anything about what she did, but you remember it clearly. ”

"Uh...... It's different......" Rare said with a puzzled expression, "Isn't it normal for us to use a lot of magic......

"No...... It's not the same...... Alan shook his head, "and it's easier to do the same thing...... But ......"

"Do you suspect that it has something to do with that person's purpose?" Cynthia asked.

"Yes...... I wonder if I can use this as a breakthrough to make some new discoveries......"

"It's not...... Wait a minute......" Rare couldn't help but interrupt them when he heard this, "'that person' in your mouth...... Who the hell is it?"

"Ah...... yes, you don't seem to know the whole thing......" Alan then remembered that Riel had been kept in the dark all along, just being used as a tool.

"As things stand, there will be no one else...... "Allen muttered, "and it's been lurking around us for a long time...... Arne Béresto......"
