Volume 2 The Triple Trial and the Awakened Demon Eye Chapter 78 The Contradictory Heart

The worship and procession held in the city of Krivari on the day of dawn was the largest mass event on the continent. On those days, anyone from the continent who could come would come to the annual carnival to commemorate the two seals of the Eye and the good life they had. And they believe that anyone who can pray to these two pagodas on the site on the day of the pilgrimage will be blessed and will have good luck throughout the year. So there are a lot of people who come here a week in advance to grab a place, of course, provided that those days are not snowy.

Originally, Alan and the others had the opportunity to come here to participate in this celebration last year, but the weather was not beautiful, and it had been snowing for a few days since dawn, and it was difficult for the carriage to move, so they had to give up. Also, I heard that because it was snowing heavily in Krivari City, last year's festival was not as lively as before.

"Hopefully it's going to be a good year. Alan thought, "I don't know how many more opportunities I'll get here...... ...... with them"

The square is big and there are a lot of people. Although it is usually unused, many people come to see it when there are no events.

At the top of the pillars at the four corners are carved a wand, a pendant, a ring, and a sword with only the hilt. Alan immediately guessed that this was carved from the prototype of the four holy relics, and since they were missing, they were replaced in this way. Of course, even if it hadn't been lost, it would have only been placed on this as an exhibit now, because judging from the words engraved on that tower, the Winslow family should have done their best to proclaim that the era was created by their family, and these relics of the old era were probably just placed here as a symbol to avoid public criticism.

After looking around, Alan stood on the edge of the platform and looked out over the whole of Krivari City. Only then did he realize that the base of the Pilgrimage Steps was square, not round as he had thought at first. From here to the center, large and small roads radiate radiating in all directions. The southern part seems to be the main urban area, because it is full of commercial streets, and the northern part is basically fields, and it is obvious that these people of Krivari City alone cannot achieve self-sufficiency, so a gate was specially opened in the northwest of the city, as if to facilitate the import of food from other cities.

And the terrain here seems to be relatively high, which is why it looks like the top of these two towers is almost buried in the clouds.

Unlike the heat in the city, the wind here is very strong, and even though the sun is overhead, it still makes them feel a little cool, so they don't stay here for long.

At about two o'clock, they decided to go back the way they came.

It's not as interesting as I imagined, but it's rewarding to be able to experience a different state of mind here.

The way back was still led by Riel, but this time he walked more slowly, and would look back from time to time.

Alan immediately saw through the reason...... He was a little worried about Cecilis' body.

Although he didn't know what Cecilis had told him to make him what he was, Alan actually knew that he still cared a lot about Cecilis's every move, but he was just a little indifferent.

Because when Cecilis passed out, it was he who took the first action, and at that time he was still very impatient because of Alan's hesitation. And in a hurry to take them to the restaurant, I want Cecilis to get enough rest and rehydration. And on the way back, one of his actions also exposed his thoughts.

They had walked about a third of the way, and the little girls were looking curiously towards the shops on either side of them as they walked, when suddenly two teams of lavishly decorated carriages burst out of a side road behind them, one of which had the logo of the Krivari Magical Management Society on its carport. The carriage was moving at a high speed, and there was a rare person sitting in the front of the carriage – which meant that the situation was urgent, and someone needed to speed up, otherwise the unicorns would just follow their familiar route at a leisurely pace.

The streets are full of people, and it's dangerous for them to turn corners at such speeds.

Alan and the others noticed it early, and when they heard the noise behind them, they ducked to the side, but these little girls were different, their attention seemed to be completely focused on the dazzling array of goods next to them, so it was too late for them to notice the danger - the carriage driving in front had already appeared behind Cecilis.

Although unicorns are known for their high intelligence, and instinctively they slow down as much as possible, it is impossible to stop completely, and if they are hit at this speed, they will either die or cripple......

But just as he was about to collide, Rare appeared at Cecilis's side and yanked her, protecting her behind her.

"Thank you, thank you......" Looking at the carriage that still hadn't stopped, Cecilis was a little apprehensive and hurriedly thanked Riel.

Rare didn't speak, just bit his lip and whispered an "um".

"Are you alright!?" At this time, Selena and Nicole also hurriedly gathered around and asked questions.

"It's okay...... I'm fine......" Cecilis looked at Riel and said, "Thanks to Senior Connor......"

However, Riel still didn't react superfluously, not even a "you're welcome", just a moment of silence, and then said with a sigh of relief, "Let's go." ”

It's all details, but Alan is still able to capture Riel's thoughts at the moment—these very contradictory thoughts.

If he hadn't been keeping an eye on Cecilis' position and state, he wouldn't have been able to use Starlight to move to her side in such a short period of time, but his actions and attitudes were diametrically opposed, so Alan concluded that he should be very conflicted in his heart now......

And he didn't want to watch this contradictory mood torment Riel all the time.

So, as soon as they returned to their accommodation, Alan decided to ask Cecilis what she had told Riel about it.

"Wait a minute, please. Alan called out to Cecilis, who was about to go back to her room.

Riel was already in the house, and the two suspicious people weren't around, only Alyssa was around, which was a great opportunity.

"What do you have to tell you?" replied Cecilis, politely.

"It's about what happened at the Rose Wall...... "Alan asked, staring at her, "I wanted to ask...... What did you say to Riel before you passed out from heat stroke?"

However, after hearing Alan's question, Cecilis looked puzzled...... I saw that her eyes widened and she was stunned for a long time, and then pointed to herself and said hesitantly: "What did you tell him...... You mean...... Me?"
