"My ...... Decided to ......" Looking at Riel, who was still lying unconscious next to him, Allen's originally calm heartbeat suddenly began to accelerate.

As if driven by some kind of force, Eren slowly stood up from the ground.

"Shine in the sky, through nothingness...... Pierce my soul and give me strength!"

Alan only felt that there was an inexplicable force that kept pouring out in his heart, and it hit upwards again, obviously clear-headed but he couldn't think, so he could only rely on instinct to shout out his innermost thoughts.

"Darkness slumbers at your feet, and endless seas of flowers bloom ahead!" Alan sang, "Follow its guidance, obey the light...... Even if it's short, it's splendid!"

As the incantation was finished, a faint light slowly produced at his fingertips, little by little, brighter and brighter.

As if inspired by something, Eren suddenly crouched down in front of Riel and put his finger on his heart.

I saw that the spot of light began to become unusually bright the moment it came into contact with Riel, and then broke away from Allen's fingertips, slowly submerged into Riel's chest, and disappeared......

There was a brief silence.

"It's incredible...... said old Adrian after seeing this, "it's the first time I've lived so long to see someone invent a new magic in front of me...... And it's also the rarest form of light elemental magic. ”

"New ...... Magic ......" Eren came back to his senses, as if he didn't realize what he had done, and muttered as he looked at his glowing index finger.

"The invention of magic is not only a matter of talent, but also of all sorts of wonderful coincidences. "Like just now...... I don't know where you came from to comprehend it, but in short, you created it. ”

Alan couldn't help but look at his hand again, stunned.

After a long time, he finally reacted: "Ah...... Mr. Adrian, why are you here?"

"Me?" said old Adrian, shrugging his shoulders and pointing to the sky with his cane, "of course Arthur brought me in." ”

"Arthur is there too?" said Allen, who instantly understood something.

The strange winged creature that Frey had spotted seemed to be it......

"It's not...... I mean, why are you here?" Alan asked, "as if he knew early on that something was going to happen to us......

"Is my divination crystal so unreliable in your eyes?" quipped old Adrian, "and while sometimes it gives revelations that are hard to understand, sometimes they are useful, eh...... For example...... Not...... But I'm too stupid to ......."

"Oh......" Alan nodded thoughtfully.

"But speaking of Arthur, this lad is worthy of his name!" said old Adrian, smiling, "for the first time he has gone far away, and has flown hundreds of kilometers with me tirelessly. It's a thing that comes out of a fantasy, and it's really a dream-like existence!"

"Born from fantasy?"

"Yo, I thought you were the most knowledgeable, but I didn't expect you to be here for more than a year and still don't know about it?" said old Adrian, "the phantom horse is the work of the elves...... I don't know which elf's whimsical idea actually used unicorns and eagles as objects of fantasy to create such a magical species...... That's why they have the same eyes that see through people's hearts like elves. ”

"Ah......" Hearing this, Alan suddenly understood why, when Arthur would refuse to approach Rare...... It is because of the dark side of his heart.

"Where is it now?" asked Allen.

"Not far from here, our camp. "He has not wanted to go out since he entered the woods, perhaps because he smells some danger...... Not...... It's actually dangerous...... I've heard that there are a lot of werewolves and Granners in there, so I'm reluctant to go to the surface, and I'd better be safer in the trees......"

"Ah...... Sure enough, you're ......," Alan said, "the man we detected in the tree earlier......"

"Oh, that's interesting...... Is it you who were looking for me at that time?" said old Adrian, looking a little surprised.

"Or else?" asked Allen, curiously, "is there anyone else looking for you?"

"Hmm...... This ......" the smile on old Adrian's face suddenly disappeared, "probably...... Yes...... I don't know ...... either."

The old man's reaction couldn't help but make Alan a little confused, and the more ambiguous the answer, the more abnormal it seemed.

But before he could continue to ask, there was a sudden movement from Riel's side.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

As if something had been sucked into his trachea, Riel suddenly coughed violently and woke up from his coma.

"Oh, this stupid boy woke up pretty quickly. Old Adrian said, "I forcibly stopped the spell in such a rough way, and I thought I would be in a coma for days." ”

After hearing Old Adrian's voice, Riel was stunned, and suddenly sat up from the ground and wanted to get up.

But Alan grabbed him by the arm.

"Don't run away, it's useless. Allen said.

The eyes are facing each other.

Gaze at each other.

After a few moments, tears suddenly swirled in Riel's eyes, and his emotions began to become more and more agitated, and then he buried his head in his knees and cried, "I...... Finally...... What have you done......"

Remembering the way he fought with his life just now, everyone else was silent.

"I ...... How...... This kind of ...... can be made ...... thing," Riel choked up, repeating the phrase over and over again, "and ...... ...... to you"

"Don't blame yourself too much. Seeing Riel like this, Alan comforted, "It's not your fault. ”

But as if she hadn't heard, Riel just lowered her head and sobbed.

"I know, that's not your intention, is it?" asked Alan after a moment.

Riel was stunned when he heard this, his choked voice finally became smaller, and he slowly raised his head to look at Allen, his eyes red and swollen.

He nodded lightly and shook his head, "I don't know...... I just feel like there's another me in my heart...... I've been talking about how you're so bad......"

Alan nodded slightly: "That's right...... That's not you, you're just being blinded by something, or someone. ”

Riel looked at him dumbfounded.

"It's okay now. Looking at his somewhat stupid expression, Alan couldn't help but laugh, "Although the process was not very pleasant, the result was always good." ”

"Alas, it's time to buy new clothes again. Alan tugged at the sleeve that was only a short part left, looked at Riel again, and smiled, "But you're really good at using these spells, and you've almost killed me several times...... Not...... This kind of combat experience is enough for this once......"

As he spoke, he wanted to get up.

However, he was grabbed by the sleeve by Riel.

Alan looked at him a little puzzled.

"We ......," Riel lowered his head, and stopped talking, and hesitated for a long time before he said, "We're still friends, aren't we?"

Alan was stunned for a moment when he heard this question, and after a moment of thought, he said, "What are you doing stupidly?"

Riel also looked up at Alan.

"Of course it is......" Alan shook Riel's hand and pulled him up from the ground, "we're best friends...... From fifteen years ago to now, it has always been. ”
