44. New World(1/2)
At night, in the mysterious house.
May and Ben went back to Wisconsin and they were going to see Colson's parents.
Colson told May everything.
After realizing that his younger brother had an experience in Wisconsin, May planned to see where his younger brother grew up.
The children support their Aunt Mei to do so.
Merlin's departure caused everyone pain, but Merlin was definitely the one who was most hurt.
She needed time to take away the grief, but she was even more suspicious whether time could heal all this.
Little Peter was sent to Xuanlan, who was happy to take care of Meilin's nephew.
This child is only 11 years old this year. He hasn't grown up yet, so he shouldn't have endured this.
"You have to sleep well at night."
Xuanlan sat beside the bed and covered the quilt with little Peter. She looked at little Peter, and the child was holding the frame of Icarus tightly in his hand.
It's like the most precious thing.
well.
Xuanlan sighed in her heart.
She smiled and touched Peter's face, she said:
"Ring the bell if you need it, I will appear as soon as possible."
"Um."
Peter had lived in a mysterious house before, and he was no stranger to Xuanlan.
When Peter suddenly asked:
"Sister Lan..."
"Um?"
Xuanlan looked down at Peter, who whispered:
"I heard Sister Riven talk to Brother Matt today. Riven said that his uncle just went to a very far place, like a business trip."
"He will come back anyway, right?"
"Of course, little cutie."
Xuan Lan chuckled.
But she lamented inside.
Suddenly, in the eyes of children, the word "out" becomes a synonym for going to dangerous places...
She leaned down and kissed Peter on the forehead.
She said:
"Your uncle, you are a great person. Great people are always firm. They will not give up on the people or things they care about so easily."
"And you are in this world, he will definitely come back, just sooner or later."
"Go to sleep, kid."
"Um."
Little Peter waved to Xuanlan.
After Xuan Lan left, he placed the cold glasses in his hand next to his pillow.
He looked at the lenses of the glasses, as if he had seen another world from them.
His uncle was there.
It was like falling asleep, lying in a dark red water.
"uncle..."
Peter called out softly.
The next moment, sleepiness came, and the child blinked and fell asleep.
The lights dimmed.
On Icarus' lenses, a light dissipated and soon returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
This night was very quiet.
———————
"uncle..."
The ethereal call came into Meilin's ears, just like a sleeping person being awakened.
He opened his eyes.
The shaking light swayed at the end of the sight, like the sunset rising from the sky, but the sunset was beating a little too active.
Merlin's mind was still a little confused.
It’s like I’ve been sleeping for a long time, and my mind is not very clear.
He could feel that he seemed to be lying in the water, the cold liquid entangled outside his body, making him feel a little cold.
Well, this may be the sequelae of soul cutting...
After all, in his opinion, Horcruxes are full of shortcomings. If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, he wouldn't have chosen to do so.
The buzzing sound echoed in my mind, like needles piercing his soul, and the scenes in front of him were full of shadows, as if there was a ghosting phenomenon.
It's vague.
He could only see a beating light spreading in front of his eyes, like a dragon made of light.
He was leaping towards him, and then he was falling from the sky like something was falling.
Merlin stretched out his hand and his body seemed to be rusted. Even the action of raising his hand became quite difficult.
In the cold water, he rubbed his eyes and tried hard to make his vision clearer.
The shaking light in front of me became clear, and the blurry light quickly became real.
He saw it.
The sunset is not shaking in the sky.
It was a haze, like a gloomy sky forever.
Among those thick black clouds, pale light shines, just like the cold sun emitting cold light.
And among the interlaced and torn clouds, flames were falling from the sky.
It's like a meteorite, or an anxious rain of fire.
A flame fell rapidly from the sky and smashed towards where Merlin was, causing a sharp and ominous whistling.
Just like a strange bird pounced down from the sky, roaring to slash Meilin's head.
The sky fire fell and was getting closer.
The scorching light slapped Merlin's face, making his wet hair feel the suffocation of baking.
"Swish"
A light curtain jumped out of Merlin's tight fingers, causing the space in front of him to rotate rapidly as if it was stripped.
Then it expands outward and pulls, like an invisible curtain covering Merlin.
"Bang"
The falling sky fire hit the invisible shield, but it was like a mud cow entering the sea without any sensation.
Although the momentum it fell was really terrifying.
But for a great wizard, such a sky fire just looks terrible.
Merlin was still lying in the cold pool, adjusting the magic power in his body to re-moving his body.
He is like a frozen corpse. Even if he has the vitality of rebirth, it takes time to wake up from that frozen perception.
In the falling sky fire, his consciousness became clear.
He looked at his body.
The seeds of power in the third palace are gone.
The projection of the abyss extending through the symbiosis is gone.
The Crimson Lord lost his power with the infusion of deep rubies.
The power of fear given by the Orochi Kur was gone.
Empty.
But it looks so clean.
Merlin felt that she had never been so relaxed...
He looked at the hazy sky, dotted with sky fire, and he could no longer feel the gaze from the stars.
He's free...
All planning finally became a reality at this moment.
He is free.
The best thing is the magic...
To be continued...
