Lost dolls

As soon as I left the tavern, I met a man in a black coat, carrying a huge satchel, and a hat decorated with feathers.

The man, who claimed to be a messenger, took out a letter, saw that I had taken it, and hurried away.

When Danio came out of the tavern, he happened to see me reading a letter and asked, "Someone wrote to you?

"It's a summons from the Magic Guild. I took a deep breath and muttered inwardly, "Looks like something is going wrong." ”

"Yes, you killed the leader of the Magic Guild, they ......" Danio thought for a moment, "I'll go with you." ”

I nodded, and walked from the back street to the West Coast, where I saw dozens of men and women armed with weapons, walking in several rows, right in the middle of the road, pedestrians consciously giving way.

The person in the front was a young man in a suit of black light armor and a black cape, with short bronzed hair curled up.

And the pedestrians around are also discussing:

"Who are they?"

"I heard it's from the Empire!"

"You mean the Delos Empire?Why are their soldiers in the territory of the Duchy?!"

I was very puzzled, so I whispered to Danio beside me, "What is the Delos Empire?"

"Like our Duchy of Belmar, it is another powerful country on the continent of Arad. Denio pointed to the leader and said, "And that person is one of the four sword saints who defeated the mighty monster Shylock the Stalker in the Cave of Sorrow fifteen years ago!"

The Four Sword Saints sound very famous, but I've only been on this continent for a long time, so naturally it's impossible to hear of it.

"He's a sword soul who wields a short sword!" Danio had already begun to gush about, "and most of the people who use the short sword are Devil May Cry like me or those Asura ...... who can feel fluctuations."

"Isn't your profession a rakshasa of that?"

"Hmm, what, what rakshasas?"

Well, Devil May Cry is Devil May Cry, the name Rakshasa sounds like an oriental word, obviously it doesn't match, so it's better to call him "Devil May Cry" in the future.

"He was only a teenager back then, but he had already become one of the Four Sword Saints, and at the age of twenty, he became the head of the Iron Wolf Knight Order of the Empire, and was also appointed as the Empire's Sword Master, which is quite a prestigious position!"

It's time to stop Danio's cult of personality, and I interjected, "Then do you know what he's doing in the Principality this time?"

Danio shook his head.

"Alas...... We don't care so much, let's solve the matter in front of us first. ”

I killed Sharan, the leader of the Magic Guild. Although it is to protect themselves, will anyone believe it?

Why did Sharan get rid of me? I don't even know myself, and if I can't answer if someone asks, wouldn't it......

Before you know it, we've arrived at the gates of the Magic Guild on the West Coast.

I took another deep breath and pushed the door in.

The appearance of the hall has not changed, it is still so bright and dazzling, but it is someone else who has come out to greet it.

The woman, with long black hair, deep eyes, and a blue-purple floor-length dress, looked so fresh and refined.

And she was holding a strange-looking instrument in her hand, which seemed to be a lute......

Suddenly, a cold breath came from ahead, and I became alert and resisted with a magical shield.

However, the sword of ice, through the magical shield, reached my eyes! The cold air brushed my cheeks, and it felt like my whole face was frozen!

The Ice Sword stopped moving forward, and I noticed that the man who attacked me was a white-haired, diminutive boy who was wearing a coat to protect him from the cold, and a high collar that even covered his mouth.

"Logan, don't be rude. ”

With the woman's whisper, the young man named Logan put away his sword of ice and stepped aside.

"You...... Who are you?" Seeing the woman in front of me, I didn't know her at all, but I felt an inexplicable familiarity from her, which made people very scared.

Could it be that this person is the master behind Shalan?

"I'm a bard, Alice. Please advise. ”

Alice walked over as she spoke, and I subconsciously took two steps back and subconsciously pulled out the weapon behind me......

A staff?

Not a staff of the Goblin Chieftain, but a mediocre wooden staff!

When did it appear to me?

"You're too nervous, don't be so restrained. Alice stood and said, "If you can, can you tell me everything you experienced in the Sky City?"

I nodded, and told me all the previous adventures, including Andy's disappearance, Amy Coller's return to the Celestial Realm, etc......

"Wait!!" Suddenly, Danio shouted, "Who are you talking about, Andy?"

"Andy, the summoner who teamed up with you before I met you!"

Denio shouted, "Summoner, is it a girl, is there such a person?"

"She has also been bitten by zombies, and she can improve her combat power through zombification, and she also uses the Black Hole of Annihilation, the city of light that she destroys......"

"First, no matter how much the summoner steals skills, it is impossible for them to know the high-level magic of the elemental master of annihilation, the black hole, and second, the corpse thief does not have the ability to infect the Bone Hell...... "Third, Andy, this name, not a girl's name, no one will give their daughter a man's name!"

How......

What was he talking about? Did he forget Andy?

"Who destroyed the Lord of Light?" I asked hurriedly.

"That's our partnership to defeat him, if you want to say whose final blow is, then let me tell you, isn't it your move 'Annihilation Black Hole'?"

Annihilation of black holes?

No way!

Something is wrong with my memory?

Or has Danio's memory been tampered with?

Why doesn't he remember Andy?

Why does he think I can release the black hole of annihilation?

Why...... I'll have one with me - staff?

Dingdingding......

A melodious sound interrupted my thoughts.

Alice asked slowly, "Excuse me, do you remember your own name?"

"My name is fantasy. I'm a human adventurer from the Sunset Continent, doesn't the Magic Guild have my information?"

"I think you should look in the mirror over there. ”

She pointed behind me, and I turned around to see a mirror on the back of the closed door to the Magic Guild.

And the person printed in the mirror is a petite man wearing a red gothic skirt, red hair, a small black top hat, and a pair of pointed ears......

Is that...... I???

I tried to move my arm, and the person in the mirror moved my arm as well.

"You're a demon, not a human. Alice said leisurely, "You don't call it fantasy, you call it Nicole." ”

I was already speechless, and the sudden change left my brain blank!

Only Alice's voice echoed in my head, but I heard her words naturally without moving her mouth in front of me!

"There is another person inside you, an intruder called 'Fantasy'. This person occupies your consciousness and uses your power to commit the felony of murder. ”

What the hell am I ......

"You are a doll created by Lord Herder, a promising elementalist who has been overrun by an alien spirit, lost in yourself, and hypnotized by false memories. Now, it's time to wake up!"

I am......

A strong light hit me, and I saw my own fallen body, however, from a third-person perspective......

Looking down, my current body is a human body, but it is transparent......

"It doesn't matter who you are. Alice's tone became extremely cold, and it was almost the same as at the beginning, "No matter what method you use to occupy Nicole's body, now, it's time for you to return to death!"

Bite!

With a plucked string, another bright light shot out from the piano in Alice's hand.

I could feel it, it was a murderous, aggressive light!

And now, I can't resist.

Suddenly, the figure of an old man appeared in front of me, and he carried me away to avoid being directly hit by the bright light.

We walked through the walls of the Magic Guild and came to the skies above Huttonmar.

I know this old man......

"It's you!"

"Shhhh......hhhhh

I nodded.

This is a big question, this is related to the authenticity of my previous experiences and memories, this is related to whether the place where I am is is real, is it that I have been trapped in the illusion and cannot extricate myself, so such a bizarre event happened?

Or am I dead at all?

I was dead when I fell into the magma of the Flame Cave?

What I'm experiencing now, the so-called Arad Continent, the so-called Sky City, is nothing more than a game set up by the afterlife world to satisfy my adventurer's soul?

Bigg said slowly, "I know what you're thinking. Then let me tell you, you are indeed dead. ”

............

Although I had already imagined it, the moment I knew the truth, I still couldn't accept it!

I'm dead...... I'm dead......

How so......

"But now, you will continue to live in another form. You will be reincarnated in the continent of Arad, and then continue your adventure until your mission is completed, and eventually, you will be reborn in the continent of the setting sun. ”

What is the mission? What does this have to do with me?

"This task is yours, and you are the only one who can stop the apostolic conspiracy. The ability that your soul occupies allows you to start your life from scratch. In fact, you've been borrowing the puppet's body for a while, and it's time for you to find out what kind of conspirator Alice says Herder is. And now, you'll continue your adventure as a human!"
