Chapter 60: That dilapidated castle

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 As Elise screamed.

With her as the center, a sound wave visible to the naked eye spreads around.

The rats involved in it all vomited blood and died under the sound wave mixed with the inexplicable aura.

In the air, the raindrops that should have fallen are also hovering in the air driven by this sound wave.

The sound was sharp and harsh, but fortunately it did not cause the same harm to Luna.

Luna covered her ears in pain just because the sound was too loud.

Seeing the source of the sound, Luna's heart skipped a beat.

She was very frightened that Elise's seal was loosened.

As usual, this shouldn't happen. Elise just went home and accepted the seal. It shouldn't and cannot be loosened now!

This sound came and went away just as quickly.

Elise shouted in one breath and slowly sat on the ground.

Ogg looks like this now, and the antidote on his body cannot detoxify this concentration of toxins.

Fortunately, it’s possible to get some relief.

Give Og the antidote.

Luna hurriedly braved the heavy rain and ran to Elise's side.

The rain wet their clothes, and their flowing bangs and sideburns became strands.

Kneeling in front of Elise, Luna held Elise's bowed head in her hands.

Feel the familiar warmth.

Elise slowly raised her head.

Hiss——Luna took a breath and shook her hands. Fortunately, she controlled her instinctive fear and did not let her hands leave Elise's face.

What caught Luna's eyes was this picture.

Elise's left eye has turned red, and her right eye, which was still blue, has also begun to turn red.

"Come on, leave me alone, I'm getting out of control..."

The words that Elise managed to spit out were so pale and weak under the cover of the rain.

"No, Elise, you have to hold on... Professor Dumbledore will find a way!"

Rainwater slipped from Luna's chin. She was not in the mood to wipe the rainwater from her face. She was afraid that she would let go.

When Elise feels isolated and helpless, her sanity will be completely swallowed up by the monster in her body.

Xifa, come quickly...we need you...

It was at this time that she discovered that the person she relied on the most was not the professor, but Xifa, who had spent almost every day with them these days.

————————

No movement, no people, no road?

The new student was very distressed. He cautiously came to the hut next to him, only to find that except for the hut being severely damaged, there was no trace of popularity at all.

But the Forbidden Forest is so big, where will Westerners go?

This place is far away from Hogwarts, and the lights of the castle can no longer illuminate this place.

The freshman took out a pair of eyes and put them on his face. With the help of the lenses, he could see through part of the darkness.

Riding a broom and slowly rising into the sky, he saw a magical light in the distance.

I felt happy and was about to rush over on my broom.

A flash of lightning flashed across the sky, and he froze as he lifted into the air.

Just rush there honestly and down-to-earth.

He sighed in his heart.

————————

In the forest, there was a figure chasing after him quickly.

The invisible mage's hand hangs in front of him to prevent the rain from blurring his eyes.

The palpitating feeling told me that the scream before the thunder was not an illusion.

Moreover, I also saw that ball of fire.

With a clear direction, Xifa's pace is faster.

"What's going on?"

Although Elise's aura was a little strange, Xifa breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the two of them were safe.

As long as people are still there, other problems can be solved.

"Elise's seal can no longer be suppressed?"

Luna blurted out, but she forgot that Xifa did not know about the seal on Elise.

Xifa didn't have time to ask what the seal was for and what was sealed.

"How can I help her?"

Ignoring the mud and water around him, Xifa half-knelt beside Luna.

He discovered that Elise's dead red pupils had a strange beauty.

Why do I think about this? Xifa immediately became alert and used Occlumency to suppress his feelings.

Only then can you look at Elise normally.

"Elise is the Obscurus. To help her, you need to enter her heart, help her suppress the Obscurus beast, and then awaken it."

The rain fell on Luna for a long time, causing her body to lose temperature and tremble slightly.

But even so, she insisted on holding Elise's face so that she could see her.

Entering the heart, I have not learned this kind of magic! The only one who is related to He is Legilimency.

Wait, Legilimency! If the caster's will is not as strong as the one who cast the spell, the spell will be cast in the opposite direction.

"Luna, protect me and Elise, Charles was disabled by me, he probably won't come over."

After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Luna to reply.

"Legilimency"

Darkness, loneliness, pain, killing...

All kinds of dark emotions surged in instantly.

Fortunately, we have been born in two lives, so these emotions are not unacceptable.

I feel that my connection with Elise is strong enough.

Western France unilaterally gave up control of the curse.

The perspective in front of him went dark, and he was pulled into the depths of Elise's mind.

——————————

My eyes are empty, but I can feel it in my heart.

In the endless darkness, there is a dim bonfire swaying.

Without hesitation, Xifa followed his own feelings and leaned towards that light.

The feeling of uncertainty seems to be about to disappear.

His eyes suddenly lit up.

Unaccustomed to it, Xifa squinted his eyes to ease the discomfort of coming from darkness to light.

After a cursory look around, he found himself standing on a cliff by the sea.

Xifa felt his magic power and found that there was no reaction at all.

Fortunately, imagination can still work, but you also need to build magic patterns.

The hard ground under my feet told me that this was a real world, and my reason told me that this was Elise's inner world.

The setting sun is cut in half by the distant line of sea and sky, and the orange-red sunlight shines on the sparkling sea.

The ups and downs are refracted like balls of flame.

However, this is the fire of the setting sun. Perhaps, when the sun sets, everything will be irreversible.

There is a sea view on the left and a dense forest on the right.

Directly in front is a majestic castle with a sense of age.

At its glorious moment, this castle should have many people coming to admire it.

But now, the high gray city wall is covered with black and green vines.

In a place where Xifa cannot see, that is, on the side completely facing away from the sun.

There are so many vines that they have covered the front wall.

In fact, many of them extend into the windows, making them look particularly eerie.

Does Elise have to spend every night here?

Xifa's heart throbbed.

Take a deep breath and strengthen your will.

Xifa walked along the winding path towards the castle gate.

When he came to the gate, Xifa pushed it with his hand, but the gate didn't move at all.

Xifa observes, this is two half-doors put together.

It can be pushed outward or inward.

After finding that feeling, Xifa closed her eyes and opened them again.

In my mind, I imagined two doors opening inward, and the door in front of me really followed the imagination and slowly opened inward.

The temperature outside was quite comfortable, but when he walked into the castle, the damp air inside made Xifa shiver.

***The author has something to say***

Hahaha, clichéd plot
