Chapter 24 Changes



Chapter 24 Changes

Jinjiang starts (inverted V starts)

In the resplendent and resplendent palace room, the crystal refracts the lights to shine brightly, and the soft crimson carpet covers every corner of the ground, so people coming and going will not make a scene.

Princess Hilda's eyes were full of tears, and she looked at Al Sein expectantly, waiting for his response.

But Elsain looked at Princess Hilda who invited him from the banquet, but did not immediately answer her request, but instead asked her, "Your Highness, why did you think of looking for me?"

Princess Hilda replied honestly: "I heard that you are the kindest and most reliable person in Santorini."

Elsain responded with an inexplicable sound, but didn't expose her.She should feel that she has the ability to take her away on the one hand, and can afford to offend the king, so as not to be one-sided.On the other hand, he offended the future pope, so she thought she had the capital to exchange.

Wind reviews are part of the reason, but not all.

But it's just as well.

"I am very happy to help Your Highness the Princess." Elsain bowed vainly and said, "But I have something to ask Your Highness."

"Your Majesty, tell me." Hilda was a little surprised, and then heaved a sigh of relief.

"Have you ever seen such a bookmark?" Elsain took out a piece of yellowed paper and handed it to Princess Hilda, "My father left me something that seems to have fallen into St. The kingdom of Torini."

"Although it's not such a precious thing, it's just a thought after all. After I lost it, I can't forget it. I've been looking for it all the time, but to no avail."

"Then I'll help you find it!" Princess Hilda immediately took the ancient paper, and when she opened it, she saw a black pattern.

The pattern is generally in the shape of a feather, but the shape of the filling inside is particularly delicate, with a kind of classical beauty.Moreover, Hilda didn't know if it was her illusion, she always felt that those beautiful gemstones were staggered to fill the feather border, and she seemed to have found it somewhere.

Where is it?

Hilda carefully put away the yellowed paper, and she decided to think about where she had seen this pattern.

Although she had experienced few things, such a result similar to a "transaction" made her feel more at ease than simply asking for help.

Princess Hilda's expression became much more relaxed, she raised a smile and suggested to Elsain: "Do you want to try the jam cake? It's sweet but not greasy, I really like it."

Elsain looked at the cake covered by the red jam that the maid had just brought, and was a little moved.He has also heard about the cake that Princess Hilda refers to. It is said that Hilda thought of a way to figure it out. The taste is much better than ordinary cakes. Just a compliment from Erda.

But he was suddenly called by someone from the princess, and he didn't know if Ernest had noticed that he left from the other side of the stairs.If he hadn't noticed...

It was strange how he should worry about such things.

Is... the owner is afraid that his cat will get lost?

So Elsein finally turned down Princess Hilda's invitation and returned to the crowd in the banquet hall.

But he glanced around but couldn't find where the black cat that was lying in the distance and almost completely integrated with the darkness went.

In the dark room, in the separated space, Ernest narrowly avoided the fireball flying behind him.

That seemingly ordinary maid turned out to be a great magician!

"Sigh of Flame!" The extremely high-temperature flames brushed Ernest's fur, directly burning off a piece of his black fur, and even the flesh and blood were scalded with a "sizzling" sound.

Ernest's body trembled in pain, and he wanted to leave but didn't reverse, so he could only dodge the maid's attack again and again in embarrassment.

The environment around him has completely changed now, from a dark room in the remote part of the palace to a hot magma.

It is equivalent to Ernest being taken from his territory to a space that is beneficial to the maid.The already huge gap in strength was quickly widened, which made him unable to even escape. He could only use various small shadows to temporarily avoid the maid's attack, so as not to be directly burned into a piece of carbon.

But he was still inevitably injured, and because of the decline in physical strength, the wounds on his body became more and more, and soon reached the point where there were many scars.

Ernest took a sharp breath.Because of the injury, his speed further slowed down, making it even more difficult to dodge.

Such a constant vicious circle, he will soon have to die here.

And Ernest could actually feel it too, perhaps because he was in the room without the maid being aware of it, causing the maid to be laughed at by the man who seemed to be connecting in the mirror.

Therefore, this "maid" deliberately did not kill him directly, but tortured him bit by bit, trying to make him die in despair.However, she was not very patient. Seeing him hiding for so long, his expression was a little impatient.

No, if you go on like this, you will definitely die.

He doesn't want to die!At least not now!

He obviously just met Elsain!

A ruthless look flashed across Ernest's eyes, and he rushed towards the "maid".

The "maid" was taken aback, she didn't expect that the prey she thought was nothing more than a thing in the palm would suddenly attack her when it was already at the end of its strength.

Her actual combat was not very good, and she stayed for a while before realizing it, and cast a large-scale fireball at Ernest.

[These should be burned to ashes. 】The "maid" thought to herself, feeling a little pity in her heart: "I wanted to peel this guy's skin to make a collar, but now it seems that there is no more."

But in the next moment, half of his body was burned away, and Ernest, who only had a skeleton, passed through the flames and rushed past her.He didn't attack the "maid".

Ernest knew very well that he couldn't beat a great magician, and if he stabbed himself like this, he would probably die without a whole body.

You know, it is impossible for a proud magician not to put some magic circles on his body to prevent melee combat.

They always have a way to take a melee blow and then regain the distance.

Therefore, Ernest's target was not the "maid" from the beginning, but the source that he vaguely sensed that made him confused.

That voice enveloped him like phantoms one after another, constantly saying: "Come here... come here..."

Ernest decided to give it a go, and he lunged straight for the blank space in his vision.When passing by the "maid", Ernest could almost hear her smug laughter, but he still jumped forward firmly and fell into the magma.

The cold touch of the bottle wall fell into its claws, and it was splashed out with a light touch.

It dawned on Ernest that this was probably what they were trying to pour into Alssein's red wine to ruin him.

But then he didn't have any energy left to think.

Black, boundless darkness gushes out from the pouring bottle and spreads cheerfully everywhere.The black is like a mist, spreading everywhere, and then aggressively eroding everything into nothingness.

It was obviously just a small bottle, but it seemed to contain a boundless and endless ocean, destroying everything that could be touched.

As if the meaning of its existence is to destroy, destroy, destroy everything within sight.

The "maid" didn't expect things to turn out like this. She cast various spells on the black mist that rolled in, such as scorching breath, fireball, and scorching spear.

But in the end, they were all completely swallowed up, and the black mist couldn't be allowed to stop for a second.

After trying everything to no avail, she opened her eyes wide and screamed as she watched the black mist getting closer and closer.

The "maid" tried her best to run far away, wanting to leave this purgatory on earth, but she didn't do any hard work at all, and she rarely exercised.Therefore, she couldn't run fast at all, and could only watch the black mist getting closer and closer, from the end of her hair to her arms.

But all the parts that came into contact with the mist were mercilessly turned into blood, and then disappeared without leaving anything behind.

During her horrific howl, Ernest bit herself hard, trying not to be overwhelmed by consciousness.

He is different from the "maid", he is not flesh and blood, he is just like a real living being, but strictly speaking, he is an undead returned from the land of death made of elements.

On this continent, there are all kinds of elements floating everywhere, such as light elements, fire elements, water elements, wood elements... There is no distinction between elements and elements, let alone elements of the same kind.So Ernest will not be swallowed by the dark element from the same source as him.

But he can get out of hand.

If he was assimilated, lost consciousness, he would really become a mass of elements without reason.In that case, he might turn into a dark attribute magic stone, or simply spread out, covering an entire area with dark elements.

Ernest didn't want to be turned into a stone.Being a ghost cat can at least protest against Elsaine by "meowing", but being a stone can only be left in place.

He struggled to stay awake.But it was like being in the middle of a storm, but it was too difficult to keep still.

Ernest just rolled around and around, pressing himself on the broken pieces of the mirror left by the "maid" before she died.

I don't know what kind of material the mirror is made of, but it hasn't been eroded by the ubiquitous black mist.

Ernest's action directly made him sober from the pain.With his dizzy head on his head, he tried his best not to be aroused by extreme emotions such as sadness and pain in the extremely high dark elements, and then completely lost control.

But he could still feel that his sanity recovered from the pain was dwindling sharply.There were so many dark elements coming naturally into him that Ernest felt like his sanity was thinning with every ounce of them.

Ernest gritted his teeth and reminded himself desperately: He would never allow the person "Ernest" to disappear on this day, never.

He had been a man without bonds, a life of pain and deceit.But, he's also a connected person now.

It was as if the balloon that was always floating around was being held by a string.Will no longer explode or deflate while floating there because someone is holding him.

Therefore, "Ernest", who wanted to disappear, did not want to disappear.

Absolutely, no!

……

The room, which was already dusty, has now become a mess.The volcanic environment that was originally simulated by the "maid" with magic props has been swallowed up by the dark elements.And there was no trace of the furniture and cups that were left in the room sparsely.

Elsain stood at the door, staring at the situation inside, without moving for a long time.

A little dark element playfully teased his trousers, trying to erode it like a routine, but was mercilessly stepped on by Alseyin, then crushed, swallowed by the ignited light element Not even a sound came out.

Al Sein completely took off his usual disguise, his cold face looked chilling.An extremely strong sense of deterrence radiated from him, mixed with unignorable displeasure.If the former high-ranking king of Santorini saw Elsain at this moment, his legs would be weak.

Al Sein felt a low air pressure all over his body.

Some extremely tiny traces can also be seen on the ground and walls.

It was Ernest's black fur, with charred edges.If you look carefully in the dark, you can also find Ernest's blood on the ground and walls.

This bloodstain can still remain after being corroded by dark elements, it can only be Ernest's.

This chaotic scene reminded Elsain of unpleasant memories.

When he was nine, his parents died and his aunt took over.

One day, when he came home from school, the talking starling his mother loved was gone.He asked his aunt who squandered his parents' inheritance wantonly at home, and the answer he got was only that he didn't know.

At that time, he searched all the corners, and only found the bloody feather.

It's been a long, long time since I felt this way.

Elsain became irritable inexplicably.He was clearly an outsider all the time, because he knew very clearly from the very beginning every time that he was the one who had to leave.

But why is it hard to ignore the irritability.

Elsain clenched and loosened his hands, and walked a few steps into the depths of the room, where there was bottomless darkness.

The scattered dark elements rushed up one after another, hitting his white suit, turning into pieces of dust, sticking to it, warning other dark elements who did not know whether to live or die.

With the continuous increase of dark elements, the light gradually changed from meager to completely disappeared.The surroundings were pitch black, but Elsain walked forward resolutely without stopping.

Until, a broken groan/groan interrupted his pace.

In the dark environment, this small voice seemed weird and vague.

It was... the voice of a young man.Elsain thought hesitantly.

He slowed down and took a few steps forward, the voice became clearer, depressed and painful.

It was an unfamiliar voice.

But there can only be one person left here.

Alsain's footsteps were very light, and the icy temperament of the polar region just now seemed to have melted a little.He moved a little further, and this was already the most edge and corner.

In the darkness, Elsain stretched out his hand, intending to use a small light magic to open his vision.But his actions were noticed by the people in the dark.

The voice almost begged: "Please, don't."

With pain and uncontrollable trembling, he repeated softly: "No."

"do not look at me."
