Walking out of the prophet's quiet room and coming to a deserted corner of the tower, Ailon's expression could not maintain its original calm. The seemingly strong expression suddenly softened, revealing confusion and hesitation.
As Messiga said, he already had the answer in his heart. The answer was accompanied by pain and death and did not require revelation from the prophet at all.
After a long time, Ailon sighed deeply, no longer thinking about the bad, but forcing himself to think about the good.
Maybe if he just needs to keep waiting, Vita's condition will get better. Maybe he doesn't have to do anything and a miracle will happen.
Ailon's original pace of leaving the city unknowingly turned into climbing towards the top of the tower. When Ailon came to his senses, he had arrived at a quiet room near the top of the tower.
After hesitating again and again, looking at the quiet room in front of him that was blocked by magic, Ailon cast a spell to unblock the quiet room.
Compared with the quiet room where the prophet was, this quiet room was much more spacious, with all kinds of furniture. In the quiet room, Elon saw Vita who had woken up. At this time, she was half sitting on the soft bed.
On the bed, I don’t know how long I have been awake.
"How long have you been awake? Vita." Ailon stepped forward and asked.
As the dragon retreated and the battle ended, Ailon led the original city creatures back and placed the comatose Vita in this quiet room, waiting for her to wake up.
"It's been a while." Vita said calmly, "After waking up this time, I found that I had lost the ability to cast spells, and I couldn't even sense magic elements."
"How could this happen..." Ailon sighed.
"It's okay. This day will come sooner or later. With the disintegration of the soul, it is only a matter of time that the ability to cast spells is lost."
Saying that, Vita looked at Ailon and showed a warm smile: "You have to think on the bright side in everything, right? Excessive spellcasting ability is undoubtedly a heavy burden for a damaged soul. I
Being able to get rid of it through this is a lucky thing, not to mention that in my current state, I don’t need to cast any spells.”
Seeing Vita's smile in his eyes, Ailon fell into a deep silence.
The death knight's cold body cannot bear such a warm smile.
Death knights are always accompanied by death, their hearts are as cold as their bodies, and only negative emotions such as pain, resentment, rage, etc. exist in their hearts.
The knowledge belonging to the necromancer told Elrond that Vita, as a death knight, should not be able to perceive all the emotions corresponding to the smile.
Even so, looking at Elon in front of her, Vita still showed her warmest side.
Is she comforting me...Suddenly, Ailon seemed to understand what Vita was thinking at this time.
He suddenly became impatient. Ailon didn't need comfort now, and the one who needed comfort even more was Vita, whose soul might disappear at any time.
"Remember what I told you, a prophet came to the city?" Ailon said eagerly: "I told her about you, and she gave corresponding revelations... She told me that you must
It'll be fine."
This is not what the prophet said, but at this time, Ailon could no longer care. If words could make Vita feel better, Ailon would not hesitate to offer such comfort.
"A prophet..." Vita looked at the corner of the empty quiet room. Ailon's words reminded her of some past events.
"My former master was also a prophet." Vita said, "That was in the era when the necromancers were just emerging. He was called the prophet Hemel by the mages of Brakada. He was proficient in magic and necromancy, and he liked to do all kinds of things.
Traveling in the elemental plane, even if he stays in the main plane, he will warmly receive travelers from other planes."
Ailon did not interrupt her, but just listened quietly.
"...The good times did not last long. The rise of necromancy gave birth to a large number of necromancers who were greedy for profit, and even more terrifying lichs. Hemel was attacked by the most powerful lich at the time, the 'Revelator of Souls'.
Other followers were also transformed by the lich."
"As for those elemental creatures that are not qualified to be transformed..." Vita sighed: "They were buried together with the collapsed mage tower, leaving the elemental core lying alone in the ruins."
"Fortunately, I found you." Elon said while holding Vita's cold and icy hand. "From the magical secret realm transformed from the mage tower, I got your elemental core. I tried every means and finally found it with Lord Rhodes.
With my help, you can return to your original form."
"You never told me what happened in the magical secret realm, Elon." As she said that, Vita put her other hand on it, "I have no memory of that time. Elon, what happened?
, so that you...never forget me, an elemental creature that went silent hundreds of years ago?"
At the end of the sentence, Vita's words started to tremble, she frowned deeply, her hand holding Ailon trembled slightly, and at the same time she held Ailon harder, holding Ailon until it hurt.
There was a trace of unbearability in Ailon's eyes. He knew that Vita was in the pain of losing her soul again. This situation had happened many times before.
Perhaps in order to distract Vita from the pain, Ailon took the initiative and said:
"At that time, I had just entered the magic academy and had not mastered many spells at all. During a routine mission to explore the ruins, someone brought a piece of high-level elemental core, which caused a change, and a magical secret realm was formed. We
These mage apprentices returned to the once intact mage tower in a trance."
"The creatures in the secret realm are full of hostility to outsiders like us. Whether they are hard golem puppets or high-level elemental creatures, they are not something that a mage apprentice can handle."
"Many of my companions died at the hands of creatures in the secret realm, and I got separated from them in order to stop a rampaging gold and stone puppet."
"At this moment, I met you, or you in the past." Ailon showed a look of reminiscence, "With your help, we finally escaped from this mage tower and escaped from the secret realm."<
/p>
"I can feel that there are deeper secrets hidden in the secret realm, but this is not something that a mage apprentice can handle. It didn't take long before the Magic Academy sent someone to explore the secret realm."
At this time, Vita's face had become distorted, and the pain in her soul had made it impossible for her to hear any sounds coming from her ears. Ailon's words were destined not to reach her ears.
"I didn't get anything from the secret realm, except for your elemental core. I believe this must be God's will." Looking at the painful Vita in front of him, Ailon finally made a decision in his heart and said firmly, "Believe me
