This resurrection brought Neville not only the surprise of returning to the world, but she also found that she had returned to her youth. The youth that had abandoned her returned to her more unstoppably than the torrent of time.
In her body, the power that had languished with a gradually silent soul also regained the vitality of its heyday. Since then, she has become a legend, or anecdotal story, that has been circulating on the Sicilia Peninsula for a long time.
And the witch bathing in the cold moonlight at night, immortal, immortal, possessing eternal youth and beauty.
"But it's not without a price." Countess said calmly: "It's just that the price is not mine to bear."
Her eyes were fixed on the sleeping face in her arms, with a complicated expression: "On the day I woke up from the resurrection, I discovered a strange thing, that is, it was clearly not the full moon night every six months, but
Leticia has already lost her memory once, forgetting everything except me. This shocked and confused me. I thought that the curse on her was more serious. Later, after careful investigation and verification, I finally understood
The truth of the matter."
"Could it be that-" Alice opened her eyes slightly, and an answer was ready to come out, but she did not say it out loud, instead leaving it to the person involved to make his own statement.
"That's right." Neville nodded lightly: "As you all thought, it was not me who came back from the dead, but Leticia used her magical power of resurrection from the dead to bear this death on my behalf.
In other words, not only me, but anyone whose blood has been sucked by her can have such an ability. This is the [Fang of Immortality] that the aliens on the peninsula have heard about for a while, and even the United Order secretly spies on it. It is not at all
What a tangible treasure, but Leticia’s own power—or as you say, the power of the girl’s royal power.”
Ringer thought thoughtfully: "No wonder she would say that to you."
Leticia once said to her grandmother, you will never die because your blood is in my body. She must have anticipated what would happen later. Although this little vampire girl who is sensitive by nature will forget a lot because of the curse.
However, he has an instinctive memory of his royal power.
A look of memories appeared on Neville's face: "That was the night when I first adopted her. She probably hadn't had a good rest for a long time, and she slept very deeply, just like she does now. But she suddenly woke up after nightfall, and
He gently bit my wrist and licked a drop of my blood from the wound. I didn't take it to heart at the time. After all, in troubled times, it was normal for a little girl to be so wary of strangers - but later
I think, it turned out that she had already recognized me at that time."
As early as the first meeting and sleeping in that warm embrace, the girl decided that the owner of this embrace was someone she could trust and rely on throughout her life. She was greedy for that warmth and did not want to see it pass away easily, so she was willing to
Use your power for her.
Some things seem to happen a long time ago, but in fact they were destined a long time ago.
"That's great." Metien said with envy.
But in fact, she has nothing to envy. After all, like Neville, she was the one who gained Leticia's trust when they first met. Although this trust came for no reason, just like the friendship between little girls,
No need to think about logic at all.
Neville paused and continued: "That drop of blood is not only the thread connecting our fates with her, but also a bridge of memories. The reason why she still remembers me every time she comes back from the dead is
It’s because there is a connection in our bodies that is thicker than water, which transcends life and death.”
That’s right.
Is blood the bridge that maintains memory?
Lin Ge was thoughtful, and Metien's eyes lit up: "So, if Leticia drinks my blood, she will never forget me again!?"
She was a little excited, so her tone of voice couldn't help but rise, which slightly dissipated the depression caused by witnessing the flames burning the swamp. But soon, the pink-haired girl realized that saying this seemed to make her have an ulterior motive.
He hurriedly looked at the countess and explained anxiously: "That, that, Miss Neville, that's not what I meant! I, I didn't want Leticia to share the power of eternal life with me, I just, just, didn't want to see
She just forgot about me again..."
Medien could not forget the scene when her friend came back from the dead in the mangrove. Faced with her happy reaction, she only replied coldly, "Who are you?". For her, the sense of loss at that time was probably the same as watching her helplessly.
The feeling is the same as watching many innocent beings die in the sea of fire at the end of the sect union. The little girl's simple and innocent logic will not distinguish the emotional weight. To her, both are the same sadness.
The same helplessness, the same powerlessness.
Neville looked at her deeply, and then replied: "I know what you mean, Meridian, and I understand your mood very well, but I advise you not to do this."
Metien was confused: "Why?"
"Because originally, Leticia's reincarnation only happened once every six months on a full moon night, but since she drank my blood and endured that death for me, it has become a full moon night every month.
It happens once. In addition, once I die in an accident, she will passively bear the death on my behalf. This is an act that she cannot control." Neville stared at Leticia's sleeping face and said softly.
: "In other words, the more you use the power of [Eternal Fang], the more serious the curse of reincarnation will be. If Leticia drinks your blood, maybe this frequency will become once a week, or even
It reincarnates every few days."
"Death is just an illusion to Leticia and has never actually existed. However, she needs to completely bear the pain and struggle of death. Those extraordinary people who claim to be gods or
Even magicians turn pale when they hear the pain. As a teenage girl who will never grow up, how should she face it? This is the reason why she avoids me before every reincarnation:
She was afraid that I would see her fear, shrinking and powerlessness when facing death, and that I would see that embarrassing and ugly posture, so she would rather die alone than stay with her relatives." This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Of course, these painful memories will be lost after rebirth, but that makes her unable to get used to this feeling and loses the opportunity to reconcile with them. Therefore, every reincarnation is a new torture for her.
Metien, you are her good friend, do you want to see your good friend go through such pain every day?"
Of course, Metien shook his head. At the same time, he finally understood why Leticia suddenly ran away at that time. On the one hand, perhaps it was because he did not trust people like Ringe and did not want to allow himself to be reincarnated in front of outsiders; on the other hand, it was
Driven by her strong self-esteem, she didn't want her best friend to see her in her most vulnerable and helpless posture.
If Leticia has to endure the pain of death every few days because of herself, then even though she still remembers herself, what's the point?
The pink-haired little girl murmured: "If that's the case, it would be better to let Leticia forget me... Anyway, even if she forgets me, we will become good friends again!"
In the end, she seemed to have found a way to get the best of both worlds, and cheered up again, her eyes shining like bright gems.
"That's it, thank you for understanding me, Metien."
Neville nodded slightly to her granddaughter's good friend, and then ended the story in a calm tone: "You all know what happened next: Leticia's power scares me, isn't it?
I am afraid of its power, but afraid of the consequences it will bring. I know that once the power of immortality is exposed, it will definitely bring endless trouble to her, and countless people will try to control her power in various ways.
, and if I didn’t have enough strength, I wouldn’t be able to protect my only relative in the world. For this reason, I did not hesitate to change my previous thoughts and took the initiative to join in the troubled times. I entangled a large group of blood tribe subordinates and established the Bloodtooth Family Valenci.
Erd later formed an alliance with Saint Junio, fought side by side, helped him unify the Tagu'ao wilderness, establish the Metosh Empire, and exchanged the Scycilia Peninsula as a territory - all of this was just for the sake of
I just have the power to protect Leticia."
"However, how can people's careful planning compare to the tricks of fate? First, Neo died, the Mortosh Empire fell apart, and the rule of aliens ended; then, the Judgment Holy See took over the Scycelia Peninsula, setting off
The dark purge made people panic; then, at a critical moment, a traitor appeared within the family, leaking the existence of the [Eternal Fang], forcing me to confront Wolfgang head-on, and both of us died at the hands of the Grand Inquisitor.
, but because of his resurrection, he attracted the attention of the Balance of Order, who secretly investigated the relevant information of the "Tooth of Eternity"; in the end, this file was seized by Gundaruf through force, causing the entire Xugen Swamp to fall into disaster.
And in the catastrophe... all of these are so intertwined that I don't even have time to breathe. If the time span hadn't spanned nearly a thousand years, I would have thought that someone was conspiring behind the scenes to guide the direction of fate."
"Of course, it's meaningless to talk about it now." Neville sighed softly: "I only hope that Leticia can live a stable life after leaving the Sicilia Peninsula. But as it stands now
From the looks of it, it’s probably just a wishful thinking.”
"After all, in an era like this, who can expect to stay out of it?"
