In fact, everyone will be lonely sometimes.

Even if you are not a human being, you will still be lonely.

Laliwash, I feel very lonely now.

In an empty city, I watched my last old friend slowly die in front of me.

So lonely.

In the past, Lalivash never thought about how he would die. He had too many lives, or in other words, time, and he was always thinking about how to live.

But now, looking at Ashram, it dissipates little by little in front of my eyes.

He suddenly felt that it would not be bad to die like this.

At least, there are still familiar people alive.

You won't be too lonely.

It would be so sad if someone died alone.

Yes, it is sad.

This kind of emotion.

In the dark temple.

The final result of the showdown.

Still Lalivash won.

Many years ago, he won, drove out Ashram, and held the position of Speaker of Parliament for many years.

As for Ashram, he can only change his appearance and become another person without even being able to use his real name.

But in fact, it doesn't matter what name or identity they have, for things like them that don't even have bodies.

They are all too luxurious and cumbersome.

It's just, what a pity.

Ashram, you are going to die.

From now on, there will be no more acquaintances.

Really...

How sad?

In fact, who is to say that if something is not human, it must not have emotions.

Laliwash just kept sitting there, watching Ashram dissipate bit by bit.

Quiet, calm. No twists and turns.

Ashram, the former master of the Council, the former king somewhere in the world, the last companion of Laliwash, the shadow of the void, just died silently.

Gone.

This time.

real.

Jax.

Burnham.

Bye now.

This time, I really say farewell forever.

Still, there was no sound at all.

The dissipating shadows were as silent as the dust falling on the ground.

The air was also calm and silent.

Peaceful, like death.

"Since you're here, come out." After a long time, Laliwash, who was silent, suddenly spoke.

——————————————————————————————

Chen Senran is still riding a horse through the streets.

But it no longer seems aimless.

He has a purpose.

He is walking towards the War College.

After passing through a series of familiar and unfamiliar roads, Chen Senran finally came to the one near the Zhan Zhan College.

The most familiar thing is the place where I stayed when I first came to this city.

Gray oak tree.

Later, it was renamed Summoner's Tavern.

Chen Senran met many people here.

There are many stories happening here.

Many people who were involved in those stories here are now dead.

The invincible man who died on the northern ice field.

The fat man holding a huge wine barrel to fight.

The Jin Shining who wanted to tease Annie.

That giant axe general who was full of blood and energy.

That bartender.

Good guy. Bad guy.

They have all become old friends.

What a fleeting change.

I don’t know what night it is.

Chen Senran stood still for a long time and looked at the ruins of the former No. 1 Tavern of Zhanzheng Academy.

He sighed, and then he prepared to draw his horse.

At this moment, the door of the tavern, which had been sealed, suddenly opened.

"Squeak--" The sound was not loud, but it was extremely harsh in the quiet street.

Chen Senran turned around.

A man with his long hair tied into two braids walked out. He looked at the two riders in front of him and was stunned for a moment.

Then he laughed: "He went."

he said.

He is, of course, the weapons master Jax.

"Yes." Chen Senran nodded without stopping.

Lucian stood there and watched the blind man riding away on horseback.

He is going too.

Embark on your own journey.

Chen Senran walked through the last long street and arrived at the entrance of Zhan Zhan College.

Gate.

This college was born more than ten years ago. It has been on the mainland for so many years, and its gate is a symbol of supreme power.

Now, someone finally came on horseback.

"Do you know why I left everyone outside?" Chen Senran looked at the vast Zhan Zhan Academy and asked suddenly.

"Why?" Drizzt paused and continued.

"Because, along the way, I kept thinking why Laliwash didn't just go out of the city to fight. Then, who would be his opponent in the entire continent? Later, I thought..." Chen Senran said something that sounded like,

Unimportant question, "Maybe, he is the city itself?"

"What?" Drizzt didn't seem to understand.

Or maybe, I understand.

But Chen Senran didn't bring anyone with him, he just brought him in. This might be the den of dragon and tiger of Laliwash's true body.

Its meaning is heart-wrenching.

"It's nothing, it's just..." Chen Senran still looked at the large gatehouse and said after a while, "Just take care of yourself."
