Chapel of the King of the Marquis.
It is located west of Stoneville City, on the island opposite the Cliff Mountain, and is only separated from Stoneville Castle by a narrow strait, like a lighthouse in Stoneville City.
And if someone stood on the wall on the west coast of Stoneville Castle in that clear weather, he would probably be able to clearly see the gate of the Marquis' Chapel and the broken brick and stone eaves or patterns on the pillars?
And now, some bad little girl has come back here again.
“…”
o(▽｀ｏo)=3=3=3
Anne did not pay attention to the busy and cleaned up the chapel of the princes on the islands and reefs, saying that she was preparing to repair the place into a stronghold and incorporate it into the Stoneville City defense circle, but just jumped forward on her own.
Speaking of which, even Annie herself did not expect that she would return here, and as a master?
If you think about it carefully, it is indeed quite dramatic.
Although, Anne herself never thought of being the master of this place, nor did she want to be the king of Stoneville City, but who made her humble at that time unable to help but mix the innocent souls and ashes of those innocent people who were "sucked" and directly summoned them in the form of "magma casters", and gave them free action and physical form of "life"?
So, for granted, she was supported by those guys and became the king of Stoneville City, and she was the kind that she couldn't do if she didn't want to be the one.
However, it doesn't matter whether she is Annie or not. After all, she has become a king for too many times, and she is not that bad.
So, since they insist on letting her behave, then she just wants to behave herself, anyway, she just has a name, and she doesn't really care about things, so she doesn't need to care too much!
(…)
(●￣￣●)
“Eh?”
(.)
Suddenly, Annie seemed to hear something moving ahead.
“??”
˙˙)
Then, looking at the place where the sound came, it seemed that she was in the direction of the main hall of the Marquis and Kings Chapel where she had just appeared. After thinking about it, she hurriedly listened and walked over quickly.
"Hello!"
"What should I do with this corpse?"
"ah!"
"She seems to be a witch?"
"Yes, look, there are words on the ground. Isn't it just a witch?"
"Character?"
"King of Eldon?"
"So, she is the witch who is responsible for guiding the fading one?"
"It should be."
"This is really rare. The first time I saw the witch on my finger, but after being here for so long, why hasn't she transformed into that kind of dysfunctional person?"
"I don't know this..."
"So that?"
"Then should we bury her or burn her directly?"
"It's better to burn it..."
"Okay!"
When Anne walked into the main entrance, she saw two magma casters standing next to the body, and after a short discussion, she planned to move the witch's body that was motionless against the wall.
"You guys wait first!"
!(;o)o
Seeing this, Annie, who felt a little strange about their conversation just now, hurriedly stopped it, then walked over quickly, and then looked at the corpse of the witch sister.
"She is still here..."
(○ε○)
After the two men saluted and retreated respectfully, Annie saw that the dead witch sister was still leaning there slantedly, and she was not eaten by wild wolves, wild dogs, or mice.
However, what was different from when she first saw it was that the other party's fresh body had gradually turned into a shriveled and pale corpse, and the blood on the ground and body had already dried up and turned into a moldy black brown color. There were only a few magical words that were still stubbornly shining with white fluorescence just like when she first saw it.
‘Even if the guidance has long been broken, please become the king of Eldon.’
“…”
(oo)
“Eh?”
(◎o◎)!
After looking at the text on the ground, and then looking at the corpse of the witch sister, suddenly, Anne seemed to have discovered something and couldn't help but exclaim.
“??”
“??”
Hearing the screams, the two men next to him were of course asking questions at Annie, but they did not dare to act rashly, and still stood aside in a regular manner and watched Annie extend her hand towards the witch's body.
“…”
☆(o*)
Soon, the two of them were surprised to find that as a golden light appeared on their queen's hand, the corpse of the shriveled and pale witch approaching the mummy became rosy in the next moment, as if it was being rushed into the blood?
Immediately afterwards, something even more incredible happened: the witch who was obviously dead, at this time, the other party's fingers that had become white again slowly moved, and then, in less than two breaths, he slowly opened his eyes?
"Living, alive?"
"My king..."
"Is this a miracle?"
Seeing this, of course, the two of them knelt down to Annie in half and prayed in a low voice.
Obviously, what they knew was that resurrecting the dead was different from summoning their souls and ashes and returning to the world with a physical shell. The power of resurrection was probably only the former golden tree.
Now, the Elden Martial Ring was broken and the Golden Tree had lost its ability to bless. What shocked them was that now, right in front of them, their queen actually had the ability to resurrect a dead person in an instant. What kind of existence is she? Her true identity is almost ready to emerge in their hearts.
"alright!"
(*^▽^*)
"Miss is so beautiful!"
(-)
However, Anne didn't have time to pay attention to the two people next to her. She only saw the delicate and kind-faced witch sister opening her eyes again and looking at her, and finally she let out a sigh of relief to make a face at the other party.
"Now it's time to tear down here. If you can move, leave quickly!"
()
Originally, she didn't want to care about such a broken thing.
But just now, when the two people behind her were planning to move the witch's body, she took a look and found that the other party's soul seemed to be robbed by malicious intention?
So, without thinking, she felt aroused, and her mind was hot, and she directly resurrected the other party. At the same time, she snatched the other party's soul from an evil guy in the distance, and then stuffed it into the other party's activated body.
Now, I guess a bad guy must be confused, right?
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"you……"
"Is that the person I'm going to wait for?"
However, what surprised Annie was that the other party had no intention of leaving. She just looked up at her first, then looked at the two knights behind her who were saluting and praying. Then she thought about it, then suddenly sat up straight and came towards her with excitement.
"Very good!"
"I finally waited for you."
"I, Selolina, here I swear, will definitely help you become the King of Eldon!"
"I promise!"
"must!"
Then, the other party crawled down slowly, and while giving Annie a big gift, he also firmly promised.
"Alas!?"
!?('')
"that……"
(‖)
"Miss, have you recognized the wrong person? It seems that they are not the one you are waiting for. They have never seen you before!!"
=()
Seeing the other person's actions and hearing the other person's words, Annie was of course shocked!
Then, of course, she quickly waved her hand and explained, and just corrected her towards the other party in a low and nervous manner.
“??”
“There will be no mistake!”
"I felt it, it was a very kind atmosphere. You must be the one I'm waiting for!"
Unfortunately, what disappointed Anne was that the witch who had just called herself Selorina, the young lady was just stunned, then frowned slightly for a while, then quickly shook her head and smiled, and said seriously.
"Impossible!"
(＿＿*)
"You feel kind because they just saved you, so..."
(O^~^O)
"Anyway, they are really not the one you have to wait for, and, they are not the one you have to wait for, they are really not the one you have to wait for."
()
Anne had long known that the Finger Witch was waiting for the fading one. It is said that what blessing would guide the two to meet. Looking at the past, there was never any mistake?
So, she did not hesitate at all, and directly explained and rejected her identity as a faded person.
"ah?"
“What is a fading person?”
After blinking, Selolina, the beautiful witch kneeling on the ground, asked at Anne in a confused look.
“!!”
(**;)
"you……"
(ˇˇ)
"Did you have a broken brain?"
Σ(°△°)︴
Hearing the other person's words and looking at the other person's stupid expression, Annie suddenly didn't know what to say, and carefully leaned towards the other person, and began to blink her big green eyes and looked carefully.
If she read it correctly, the other party should be a two-fingered witch, who will serve a fading person, guide the fading person, convey the instructions of the two-fingered person, etc., just like what Melina said to her before?
"Oops!"
=(*)
"It seems to be really broken..."
(﹏,)
"Is it because of the destruction of the soul? Although it was repaired when it was pulled back, it seemed to have damaged some memories..."
━(Δ∥)━ン
Not long after, Anne figured out the reason.
It turns out that this witch lady named Selorina, I don’t know whether the other party’s soul was taken away by some inscrutable guy and made a series of clumsy transformations. But just now, although she was forcibly snatched back from a distance by her omnipotent arcane master and forced to repair and resurrection, I don’t know whether it was because the other party’s body had been left for too long or the other party’s soul had been damaged, or whether it was both?
Anyway, the final result is like this in front of you. Some of the other party’s key memories seem to have some missing parts?
"What's wrong?"
"Is there any problem?"
The witch Selolina didn't know why Anne looked at her so weirdly, just blinked and asked back with an innocent look on her face.
Then, after waiting for a while, she saw Annie not talking. She suddenly wanted to reach out, as if she wanted to touch Annie's delicate and delicate face that was shattering?
“!!”
()
Unfortunately, before the other party touched him, Annie shuddered and easily avoided him.
"All right!"
ε=(ο｀*))) Alas
After looking at the other party for a while, although he found the key to the problem, Annie did not intend to continue to help.
Because, it takes time to deal with it and then retrieve the other party's memory, and then smooth the twisted time flow. In Annie's opinion, that kind of thing is still a bit troublesome. Moreover, she is not very familiar with the other party and doesn't want to do so many things for the other party.
"Anyway!"
()
"Whatever you think!"
()
"I'm going to have fun somewhere else, goodbye!"
ヾ(⌒⌒*) ~
Trouble or something, as long as you stay away from it, it will naturally no longer be trouble.
So, Annie didn't think about it, and didn't care what the other party and the two behind her were thinking, she turned around and walked out.
"ah!"
"etc!"
"I finally waited for you, please be sure to accept my guidance!"
Seeing Anne leaving, the witch Selorina of course refused to support herself. She struggled to stand up, and then she didn't wear shoes, and rushed to chase her barefoot.
"oops!"
!∑(Д㎎)ノ
"What are you doing? They don't need your guidance!"
o(*'　〼)o
"oops!"
(‖)
"Look at you, your body is smelly and dirty. How long has it been since you washed? Stay away from them soon..."
°(°)°
Soon, as the voice of a little girl became more and more impatient, the hall of the chapel of the prince gradually returned to peace.
“…”
“…”
It was unknown how long it took for the two 'magma casters' and the two Anne's 'fire-eyed knights' to finally end their prayers, then stood up again, and after looking at each other, they soon continued to work on cleaning up the ruins of the island and reef.
...
Almost at the same time, on the wall next to the main entrance of Stoneville Castle, a man with a little gray hair but still wearing a set of worn-out chain mail stood in front of the battlements of the city wall, silently staring at the dilapidated and deserted city in front of the mountain, staring blankly in a circle at the foot of the cliff.
“…”
After a while, the big tree guard in golden plate armor appeared behind him with heavy steps, and walked to him without saying a word.
"General."
"You said, are we doing something wrong?"
"If we could come back early and do something early, we would definitely not have become like this, right?"
That's right, he was the deputy general whom he met with Anne in the wilderness of Nimgefu before.
However, although the other party has returned to his hometown and Stoneville City, he is not in a good mood.
"I have no idea."
"It should be useless to come back early..."
"Maybe……"
"The world is wrong, right?"
He sighed, and then the big tree guard supported the arrow pile and looked silently at the golden tree above the sky, which was even more dull than before.
He knew that his friend and deputy general had returned home once during the day, but where is there any other home in Stoneville City?
Here, under Grick's rule, the so-called home is just a piece of desolate ruins surrounded by weeds.
“…”
"General."
"you say……"
"Have your home in the royal city become the same here?"
The two of them were silent for a while, and suddenly, the deputy general asked bitterly.
"Royal City?"
"No……"
"I have no idea……"
"Maybe, it's a little better than here, right?"
I have heard of the royal city.
It is said that the king of the bad omen, Mengget, had no intention of pursuing Luen. The other party kept guarding the royal city and repelled waves of invaders and barely maintained the order of the royal city?
Furthermore, there should be no lunatic like Grek who thinks about taking part all day long. Therefore, even if he is affected by war for many years, he will not be as broken and desolate as Stoneville City, nor will he not see many lights at night.
"Yeah?"
The deputy general suddenly stopped talking and continued to stand silently at the battlements and looked at the dilapidated city under the night.
"Let's think about it."
"It will get better slowly!"
I don’t know what to comfort me, but in the end, the guard of the big tree just stepped forward and patted the other person on the shoulder. After thinking about it, he turned around and left slowly with a sigh.
It was getting late now, and a little girl should have come back. I wonder if the other party would meet him at this time. After thinking about it, he was not going to stay any longer, but walked straight to his residence in the castle.
“…”
"Get it good?"
In the sky, the golden tree still obscured most of the sky like this, but unlike before, it no longer emits a strong golden light, nor can it obscure the star dust singing outside the starry sky.
"Oh!"
"Impossible..."
“Even it won’t get better…”
"Will this world really get better?"
“…”
The deputy general muttered something as if he was talking to himself.
He knew that the ring of Elden's law had long been broken, and the golden tree had lost its blessing. The demigods became increasingly crazy. The stars were prying the land. The shadow of war was still shrouding everyone. For this broken world, the disintegrated homeland and the family who did not know life and death, he was a mere mortal, and had no idea of ​​the future. He had no longer seen the direction of the future and did not have much expectations.
perhaps
One day, he himself will become that kind of dead man like a walking corpse, right?
