"You are talking about... Lord Nellie?" Katherine clenched her fists suddenly, her eyes full of expectation, but she was a little reluctant to believe. Her lips were almost bitten by her teeth, and her voice was trembling, "Is it because Lord Nellie controlled the undead and attacked her grandfather and their team?"

"I must not be the one who controls those two undead spirits. Since that's the case, there is only one answer." Panis sighed and said, "It can only be that Neli controls two demigod-level skeletons and fights the expedition team that year in the way we are used to."

"How is this possible? Lord Neri has no reason to do this. What is her purpose of attacking the expedition?" Catherine just asked her own question, and suddenly thought of something. Her eyes lit up and said excitedly: "I understand. Lord, she is trying to protect this world. She knows that the people of the God servant want to use my grandfather and their team to find the temple of Danakus, so she launched an attack on them. That's right, it must be like this. She did not hurt anyone. From beginning to end, the target was fixed on the two undead mages of the God servant, because Lord, she knew that as long as the two undead mages were killed, the grandfather and the others would lose the possibility of finding the temple of Danakus. Lord, she is indeed the greatest hero, and even at this time, she is still fighting for the safety of the world."

"You guessed it right. If Neli was behind the two undead, this should be her purpose." Panis said with a wry smile: "In order to protect this world, she will do anything. This is the fate of the guardian knight."

"Yes, this is the fate of the guardian knight." Catherine unconsciously raised her chest and said seriously and firmly: "I have sweared countless times to take Lord Neli as an example to be a true guardian knight, even if I sacrifice my life. Maybe my strength is not enough to do all this now, but I will still keep working hard with Lord Neli as my goal."

"No, you have done it." Dilly, who had been watching, suddenly said: "Since you, no, since you promised to accompany Kyle and me into this place without hesitation. In the hearts of us, you are already a brave man who is comparable to Nellie, and this will not change because of your strength."

"But, I'm still far behind Lord Neli. At least I can't protect this world even if I die." Speaking of Neli, Katherine naturally entered this state of fanaticism, and her reaction speed seemed to plummet. It was not until then that I suddenly reacted and opened her eyes wide and said in disbelief: "No, why is it Lord Neli? Isn't she... already... dead? How could she still control the undead behind her back and fight against the undead mages of the God servants? Is it that Lord Neli actually... still alive?"

"No one can give you an answer to this question." Dilly looked at Pannis and found that he had no intention of explaining, so he muttered a few dissatisfaction and explained: "That battle that year finally rushed into Neli's body with fragments of Danacus's soul. Neli stabbed his gun into his heart and declared it over. After that. Hello, Kyle, can you really bear it? Otherwise, you'll tell them later. If you continue, I'm worried that you won't be able to hold on."

"I'm fine, you keep going." Panis was a little dazed, his face was extremely pale, and he slowly sat on the ground with his head hanging down, his voice as if the last whine of a dying beast: "It's time for them to know. Don't worry about me, this level of stimulation won't praise me. I don't say it's just because I don't want to face it again, but more importantly, I was in chaos during the last period and didn't know the specific details. So it's better for you, the witnesses, to explain it more clearly."

"That's right, you really don't know what happened at that time." Dilly nodded and looked at Panis who secretly claimed to be fine for a while. Panis lowered his head and sat motionlessly on the ground, as if it turned into a stone statue. The Scorpio-tailed Lion smiled and shook his head. He said to the girls helplessly: "Things happened almost at the same time. While the soul fragments rushed into Neli's body, Neli also pierced his body, putting himself in a state of dying, and causing the soul fragments that wanted to occupy her body to suffer devastating damage. Danakus's attempts did not

It just didn't realize it, but instead put itself in a desperate situation. Therefore, it madly wanted to take revenge. The way to revenge was to attack Kyle with the death curse, wanting to kill her lover when Neli was dying. However, Neli's will controlled his body at the last moment, but did not try to save himself, but reversed the death curse, so Kyle lived to this day without aging. Of course, these were all speculations made by us from their actions later. As for whether they thought so in their minds at that time, unless they asked Danakus and Neli."

"I think that Lord Nellie must think so." Catherine's eyes were concentrated on Panis, who was hanging his head, and gentle as the clear waves on the lake. She said softly: "If I could only do one thing at that moment, Lord Nellie would of course choose to reverse the Curse of Death. This is something that there is no need to doubt, because... we will all make the same choice."

"That's why he should be burned to death, explode, bastard." Di muttered for a while in a language that only he could understand, and continued: "After that, everything happened very quickly, so fast that there was no time to react. At that time, we and Danakus were fighting in a different space in the world of the Dead. If the World of the Dead was his kingdom of gods, then that strange space was a palace condensed with the power of death in the kingdom of gods. After Danakus was hit by a devastating blow, the strange space completely collapsed, and we were all popped up into the temple of the world of the Dead, and approached

The fallen soul and Neri, who was already controlled by the soul and were on the verge of death, remained in the alien space and never appeared again. After returning to the world of the Dead, we could not return to that alien space. Moreover, the Golden Dragon Mina sensed that the gate of death connecting the world of Yara and the world of the Dead was slowly closing. We had to make a choice whether to leave as soon as possible. At this time, Kyle's spirit was almost collapsed, and we were all used to following his instructions along the way, so everyone had no idea. In the end, Mina made a decision and took everyone through the door of death to return to the present world."

"Wait, since that's the case, how do you know that the soul is almost dead?" Catherine is worthy of being a knight. What she questioned is not why she has not continued to try to rescue Nellie. For veteran adventurers, if there must be victims, they will never be stupid to waste the precious time and opportunity that the victims have exchanged for their lives. Therefore, she questioned only the purpose. Those who put life safety aside and dared to rush into the world of the dead will definitely not flee in a hurry because of fear of death when the purpose was not achieved. Since they decided to leave, it means that there is enough reason to make sure that the mission has been completed. So Catherine asked: "If you can confirm this, it will definitely not be just because the alien space collapses."

"First, the gate of death is slowly closing, and secondly, the undead outside the temple falls in pieces." Dilly explained: "Whether it is the gate of death or the existence of millions of undead, it is the embodiment of Danacus's will. Without external forces, the gate of death is closed and the undead has returned to silence, which fully proves that Danacus's will has fallen into a deep sleep again. Even if it does not really fall, it is difficult to wake up again. This is the purpose of Kyle leading us into the world of death. It's a pity..."

"So that's it." Catherine glanced at Panis again. He still maintained his original position, almost not even moving a single hair. Catherine sighed and looked at the other girls for a while, trying to comfort him, but she didn't know how to speak. Finally, she could only say dryly: "Actually, this is Lord Nellie's own choice, and she will never regret it."

"No need to comfort me." Panis suddenly raised his head and said in a low voice: "I will not be sad for Neli's sacrifice. Since I have chosen this path, I am naturally ready to sacrifice at any time. If it were just like this, I would never be depressed by her sacrifice of my life, nor would I be depressed by her death back then. Do you still remember what I often said when I first met? I am a sinner, which is the reason for my depression back then. As for my sin, haha."

Seeing Panis shook his head weakly, Catherine knew that he was unwilling to continue talking. Of course, the considerate girl would not ask for details. She also found another question and stared at Dilly and asked: "Since that's the case, Lord Nellie should have indeed passed away. She was pierced by the heart and occupied by the soul. She would never survive anyway. Then how could she control the undead and attack an expedition?"

"So, there is only one explanation." Dilly looked at the girls, turned his head to look at Panis, and seemed to be unable to find a suitable language. Finally, he could only raise his head and howl, and replied bluntly: "Obviously, the only explanation is that Neri's consciousness has not completely disappeared. At least in the era of your grandfather and others, her consciousness still remained at least part of it, so she can use the power of death to control a small number of undead to do things. But now, whether her will still exist, even if it exists, it is a very unoptimistic thing to keep. At least from the performance of the God servant."

"I really hope that Lord Neri's will can be completely preserved now." Catherine was a little stunned when she fantasized about everything that happened in the past, but after a moment, the girl's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and even her lips became pale, and she said awkwardly: "If Lord Neri's will is still preserved in my grandfather's time, wouldn't that mean..."

"Yes." Panis finally took action and covered his face and said in pain: "Decades of loneliness." (~^~)
