Extra ChapterPrequel Part 10True and False, Wind and Dream
Climbing the peak is still very tiring, and so far, Setaka has not experienced its own net loss.
Therefore, after a moment of tenderness as a dragonfly touched the water, Kalya and Setaka began to save their money and climb side by side.
While Kalya was working hard to climb the steep cliff (he needed to hang on Setaka to rest from time to time), he was also carefully experiencing his own changes.
How to say it.
In addition to the natural senses of sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste, he seems to have a brand new, currently still somewhat vague, new sense.
If I had to use a metaphor...for the first time, Kalya had a direct experience of the ever-present "pressure" after time travel.
Is this magic?
Perhaps, this is the factor that prevented me from conducting confirmatory experiments before?
Kalya, who was thinking about everything in his heart, did not use this power directly. Instead, he gathered his mind and climbed with all his strength.
Let’s wait for Setaka’s purification first!
And this wait is just one day.
Kalya, who had gone through the purification here, was almost exhausted, but Setaka over there looked fine, in high spirits, and showed no sign of weakness at all.
In other words, not only is she not weak, she is even quite excited!
If it were anyone else, he might mistakenly think that this excitement comes from exercise, but Kalya knew Setaka well enough, so after arriving at a platform, he directly stopped Setaka.
"What's wrong?" Setaka didn't realize there was a problem yet, "Are you tired? We need a rest?"
"There is something wrong with you now." Kalya narrowed his eyes slightly, "Are you entering a state of pure eclipse?"
"I have very good physical strength." Setaka shook his head slightly, "There is no problem. Look, I don't even sweat."
"So it's not normal." Kalya signaled Setaka to relax, and then conducted a simple physical examination on her. "Although it is indeed very cold, it is not so cold that there is not even a drop of sweat. Now let's start the quick questions and answers - tribe
How many people are there now?”
"...6492?" As if his brain had shut down, Setaka was stunned for a while before he gradually came to his senses, "Or 6592?"
"It's 6492, yes, but your reaction is very wrong." Kalya licked his lips and his expression became serious, "Among the many manifestations of net erosion, there is also slow reaction."
"But I really feel everything is fine." Setaka still didn't understand, "I just didn't react a little bit."
"Okay." Kalya was noncommittal, and then asked the second question, "Now, do you feel the wind?"
"I feel it." Setaka nodded lightly, "It's a bit cold, but not too big."
Something is wrong, something is very wrong - Kalya can be sure that there is no wind around at this time, only the fluctuation of magic power, and Setaka's perception is confused!
"So, do you still remember the elder Rakoul we met before going up the mountain?" Although he was anxious, Kalya remained calm on the surface and just continued to ask calmly, "The prayer he said:
With reverence——"
"With reverence in my heart, I look up at the stars, the mundane world, and look for the traces of the gods..."
As if she had blurted it out countless times, just as Kalya raised her head, Setaka recited this series of prayers that were somewhat difficult for her to pronounce very fluently.
This time there was no need for Karya to continue talking, Setaka himself also realized that something was wrong.
She has never recited this stuff before. Kalya has always been responsible for communicating with the Rakkor people. There is no reason for her to be impressed by these things!
There is definitely something wrong here!
"Calm down and empty your mind." Kalya opened his hands and brushed Setaka's eyes, "Come on, follow my rhythm and keep breathing."
"..."
"Breathe in - breathe out -"
"Breathe in - breathe out -"
Kalya's original intention was to tell Setaka to calm down and stop being so excited.
However, with the guidance of Kalya, although Setaka calmed down, this calmness soon turned into weakness and confusion.
"It's such a mess." Sweat broke out from Setaka's forehead, "Someone is talking to me."
"I'm the only one talking to you, my dear." Kalya opened her arms and hugged Setaka, "It's only me."
"There is wind." Setaka's will seemed to be a little blurred, "The wind... is very noisy, I can't hear clearly."
wind?
There is no wind!
There are only fluctuations of magic power here!
Setaka's five senses are gradually declining and becoming confused!
Unlike Karya, who "loses consciousness as soon as he enters the pure erosion state", Setaka's pure erosion state is obviously very, very wrong!
No wonder those Rakkor people who came back from climbing the mountain were so fanatical that they believed unswervingly even in the face of riddled doctrines...
No, Setaka must wake up!
Realizing that something was wrong, Kalya began to call Setaka, asking her to open her eyes and look at him.
However, Setaka just kept mumbling words such as "I can't hear clearly" and "The wind is so strong", and the arms holding Kalya seemed to be unable to sense Kalya's presence, and began to tighten their arms involuntarily.
.
Obviously, there is something wrong with Setaka's five senses. It seems that only the newly awakened magic power is still clear!
And during this process, Setaka's consciousness has become increasingly unclear. If she is allowed to sleep like this, when she wakes up, she may not be the Setaka she knows - she must find a way
Let her wake up!
In this case, Kalya was forced to try his first spell.
The result was an unquestionable failure.
Kalya cannot cast spells, and the talent he awakened after purification can only allow him to vaguely feel the flow of magic power, but it does not allow him to easily use this power.
what to do?
what to do?
Kalya has never felt his weakness and powerlessness so clearly. With limited manpower, can he only wait for Setaka to wake up?
No, it can’t be like this, there is another way!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although Kalya can’t cast spells yet, there is still wind!
Yes, wind - no, it should be said to be the natural flow of magic power!
Gritting her teeth, Kalya directly picked up Setaka and straightened her head so that her ears were facing her heart. Then, relying on her vague sense of magic power, she began to chase the flow of magic power.
Setaka can only feel the "wind" of flowing magic, so let her blow more!
run.
run.
run.
With his hands locked together tightly, Kalya took steps on this small platform and ran wildly in the direction of the flow of magic, pursuing the direction of the "wind".
This invisible "wind" seemed to be one wall after another, almost suffocating Kalya, making Kalya's heart beat more and more violently, making Kalya's legs heavier and heavier, and making Kalya's feet more and more nervous.
The more numb.
But Kalya didn't stop at all and was still running.
Until the "wind" blew Setaka in his arms out of breath, and he finally opened his eyes blankly, as if awakening from a nightmare.
The next moment, Kalya, who was almost running on instinct, finally felt a lightness in his arms.
In a daze, Setaka had already jumped out of his arms easily.
Kalya stopped out of breath. He felt his heart beating like a drum and felt that he could hardly straighten his back. But even though his hands were firmly supporting his knees, he still raised his head and looked at Setaka motionlessly.
Until Setaka grabbed him and leaned against the stone wall with him.
"Dear, I seem to have had a dream." Setaka pursed his lips, "I dreamed of a broader world."
"Then what?" Kalya stretched out his purple fingers and held them tightly with hers, "What else did you dream about?"
"I also dreamed that I was running towards the stars, and that I was running towards eternity." Setaka seemed to be a little unable to hold on, and finally a smile appeared on his face, "Before I could touch the stars, I
I felt like there was a gust of wind blowing around me.”
Kalya seemed relieved and had a bit of a smile on his face.
"Then, I looked in the direction of the wind." Setaka continued, "There, there was a guy in a robe falling from the sky with a gust of wind."
Kalya's eyes widened.
"His heart was beating very fast, and he was frightened when he heard it." When Kalya was at a loss, Setakashi continued, "I couldn't let him fall, so I caught up with him.
.”
"..."
Kalya opened her mouth, but suddenly she didn't know what to say.
Setaka raised his head and looked straight at Kalya. There was no bright starry sky reflected in his amber eyes, only Kalya with a slightly stiff expression in front of him.
"Fortunately, I caught up with him."
Kalya blinked.
Setaka finally laughed as if he had seen something funny.
Amidst Setaka's laughter, Kalya finally couldn't help but shake his head slightly, and then smiled.
Amidst the laughter, the wind finally started to really blow around the platform.
The two guys, who were clasping their fingers and laughing like fools, simultaneously stretched out their other hands.
Golden gravel quietly appeared in the palms of the two men, and then was blown down by the mountain wind and fell on the white snow.
