Elena blinked her eyes, seemingly unable to understand what Celestial Clan said for a moment - and then she was frightened.
"Are you going to help Fimir?" she repeated incredulously, "that is the culprit who led the entire "grey war" and caused countless people to die in the war!"
"I don't know what is recorded in your history, but I know very well that he is not a villain." Ariel replied seriously, "Maybe this time, I can accompany him further and witness him with my own eyes.
That ‘vision’ you told me.”
"In this case..." Elena frowned, "If Fimmel Stark wins, our world-"
"Who can be sure that the world that Lord Stark expects will not be better than the present one." Lan Tianzu said softly.
The nun suddenly raised her head and looked at the other party with a hint of hope, "Do you think if we change the past, the future will change accordingly?"
"The "Lord of Light" didn't tell me the exact answer. But he said that no matter what we do, it will be difficult to affect the direction of the entire world." When Ariel said this, her expression suddenly relaxed, "So there is no need to be contradictory.
, just do what you think is right.”
Elena nodded, but felt a little disappointed inexplicably, "Is it really... like this?"
She remembered what Fanka had warned Yuffie and the others. What the "Brigade" couldn't do was probably an almost impossible task for them as well.
"I asked Lord Leonos a similar question." The Celestial Clan seemed to have guessed her thoughts, "History can be changed alone, but as far as the Lord knows, perhaps only 'one person' can easily do it. Moreover,
What we are currently living in is just the history displayed by the "Mirror Realm" to cater to our expectations."
"...Does it mean that everyone here, including Lord Leonos, is 'fake'?"
The Jiale Celestial Clan shook its head again.
"The Mirror Realm cannot create Lord Leonos. However, this world was created, and he was able to exist here." Ariel explained, "As for other creatures living on the continent, they are also related to history.
The ones above are the same." She pondered for a moment, her tone a little uncertain, "Maybe even if we leave, this world will still exist...in some form that we don't know."
Elena didn't answer immediately. She thought for a while and asked another question.
"What will happen if we...or others in the 'Lily Nono Group' die here?"
"Sleeping in this world - or in other words, the 'Realm of Mirrors', there is no way to return to the original era."
This answer made the girl's face change slightly. But Elena understood that no matter what answer she heard, there would be no difference in what she wanted to do.
——Because coming ‘here’ was one of her wishes.
"When do you plan to leave?" she asked the Celestial Clan sitting next to her.
"When Lord Stark takes action." SkyClan replied calmly, and then added, "Not long after."
Elena looked around, instinctively wanting to find something to put in her mouth to relieve her somewhat stiff mood. Unfortunately, the Celestial Clan did not need daily food, and there was no visible food in the prayer room.
"Forget it." She shrugged, then patted her face and looked at Ariel again, "Let me leave with you. I don't intend to assist Fimir... and maybe I don't have the ability to stop him and this "grey"
"War", but as Lord Leonos' nun, there must be people who need my help."
"The enemy of good is not always evil. Many times, we are forced to confront people with the same good intentions because of different ideals. In other cases, everyone is just fighting for survival, and there is no distinction between good and evil.
." The Celestial Clan looked at her and nodded approvingly, "You are an outstanding believer."
You don’t need to say this, Elena thought to herself. No matter whether they meet again or not, she will not let Teacher Karan, the ‘Silver Witch’, and the ‘Lord of Light’ watch them from the distant heaven.
The adults are disappointed.
She said goodbye to Ariel softly, and walked along the original passage, from the warehouse where grains and dry food were stored, back to the residence arranged for her by the church.
…
Peaceful days always seem short.
In the 248th year of the Saint Leon calendar, when the Summer Moon was coming to an end, the Oron Empire invaded the Phil Federation under the banner of "recovering its homeland".
However, as soon as the two vanguard armies crossed the border between the Empire and the Federation, hundreds of dragons descended from the sky. Laurent, the commander of the left army, chose to fight back, while Haber, the commander of the right army,
Then ordered all the troops to evacuate, but unfortunately the outcome was the same.
Less than one-third of the soldiers returned to the empire alive, and the dragon's legions only suffered single-digit casualties.
At the beginning of autumn, under the pretext of condemning the atrocities of the empire, the Theocracy of Saint Leon gathered monks and troops from several surrounding cities to Dawn City and announced the dispatch of troops to the Oron Empire. On the eve of their departure, Pope Oswald and several bishops
They went to the prayer room, hoping to receive blessings and blessings from the 'Messenger of God'. However, they only saw the comatose guard monks and an empty room.
…
From the top of this small hill on the outskirts of the city, which is no more than a hundred meters tall, one can clearly see everything outside Shuguang City, as well as some of the buildings in the city. Although blocked by the city wall, Elena can still imagine that there are currently thousands of
The sight of tens of thousands of 'Judges' and monks arrayed neatly in the wide square at the foot of the Great Cathedral, and - perhaps surprised, angry and disappointed at the same time - the appearance of His Majesty the Pope.
"You really left them a mess." She curled her lips and looked at the Celestial Clan beside her who looked as usual. The two of them were enveloped by Ariel's "Sacred Domain Technique", and people passing by couldn't see them at all.
Even the defensive magic of the Great Temple could not detect the departure of the two people. "After all, they are followers of Lord Leonos. Isn't this a bit too much?"
"If this can pour cold water on them and make the Theocracy give up its plan to send troops, it may be more beneficial to them." Ariel commented casually, then shook her head slightly, "Unfortunately, due to the influence of the 'curse', the war may not be possible.
Ways to avoid it.”
"It's not all the good deeds of your 'Lord Stark'." Elena complained, although she agreed with the other party's words to a certain extent - the opportunity had already existed, and the 'curse' only added to the coming war, "Goodbye
Hey, Ariel. I hope I still have a chance...to sit down and have a cup of tea."
The Caleb Heavenly Clan nodded and suddenly hugged her. The armor felt a little hard, but the breath coming from the other party was indescribably warm, as if it smelled of sunshine and sky.
"Even though we may be enemies," she said, "I still consider you a friend, Elena."
The Tian Clan turned around, walked down the hillside, crossed the wide avenue outside the city, and continued to leave into the distance. Elena waited quietly for a while, and then looked at a place on the hillside - there, two unusual cards
The figure of Marr, who was shorter but stronger, was trotting towards her.
"Bell, Grum." She raised her eyebrows and her mood became much brighter, "I thought you weren't coming."
"After all, we are in the same team, teammates!" Bell gasped, obviously lacking exercise recently, "Tell me, where are you going? We Belon people are very loyal!
"
"You, like the eldest lady, are both people with lofty ideals." Groom squinted his eyes with a smile on his lips, "Ha, when I am with you little girls, I always feel that I am still the same as I was forty years ago.
Just as young."
Elena also pursed her lips. She bowed lightly to the two much older Belonites, and then looked towards the night under the hills.
"There are many things we need to do." She said calmly and gently, "But at the beginning... let's ask for news about Ann, Elio, Lily, Alphonse, and Sister Jill while traveling."
"I believe they must be working hard in their own way somewhere in this world."
