Dust of History Chapter 18: Preparation (medium)


"It was earlier than I expected, and much more straightforward. This is a person who can afford to let go." The pope glanced at Asa's back as he left.

"One of the biggest advantages of this person is that he knows who he is, and the second is that he is straightforward enough. Even if he is a person who deserves to be killed, he is not an annoying person." Lancelot nodded.

"That's good, I don't have much time." The Pope nodded, he sighed as if he was finally relieved, coughed twice, two streams of bright red blood flowed from his Flow out slowly from the nose. He took a deep breath, sucked back the two streams of blood again, raised his hand to wipe it away, leaving a faint scarlet on his pale face. But it seemed that even he himself didn't notice that blood was slowly soaking out of his earholes.

"Yeah, we don't have much time." Lancelot saw it, but he didn't look surprised, and there was an indescribable heaviness in his eyes. I'm going to the Principality of Cross tonight..."

"It's not our time, but my time is running out." The Pope shook his head indifferently. "You don't have to worry about it."

Lancelot didn't speak, but his face became more and more serious.

Asa did not stay at the Academy of Magic, but quietly went to the capital.

Although he is already free, his heart is still restless. In ten days or so, he might be about to die. Seeing everyone busy and nervous, the core is actually him alone. In such a situation, no one can calm down. As soon as he completely calms down and relaxes, he feels a sense of restlessness in his heart, which rises up like a fire and burns all his feelings into scorching heat and frizz.

He visited all the places he used to live in the capital, whether it was the market and tavern he often visited. It is still the former Sandro Land House, which is already a flat land. But it was not as he wished, the remembrance could not alleviate this anxiety, but it was like adding fuel to the fire, making him feel even more upset and uneasy.

Things themselves are sometimes not the most unbearable. The most unbearable thing is the kind of waiting, not to mention the death he is waiting for now. And this is not complete death, there seems to be a faint vitality in this death. Like a little light shining through the dark abyss, people can't give up, they can only suffer between the terror of death and the desire of life.

It's getting dark. Only then did he realize that he had unknowingly walked in front of the Duke's mansion. Because of this extraordinary period of time, the traffic of the past has long disappeared, only a few pedestrians are rushing by, and the lights in the Duke's mansion are faintly revealed.

Hiding in the shadows on the side of the street, he looked at the extremely familiar house opposite. Almost everything actually started there, and too many things happened there. He once thought that he would never come here again, because most of the things that happened there were too heavy, too heavy for him. He didn't want to think about it any more. But now he couldn't help but have the urge to go in.

"What do you want to do?" Someone asked from a distance behind.

"I want to find a woman." Asa replied without looking back. He had already sensed that someone was following him. He also knew who the person following him was.

"Why do you want to find a woman?" After a pause, the man asked in a strange voice.

"Because I don't believe you can hide and watch when I'm sleeping with a woman."

"Why is it that a person like you...can be...could be..." This person came out from behind the corner. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, his height and blond hair still looked extremely conspicuous.

Although he knew that she was following, Asa was still slightly surprised when he saw Talis. There is no other reason, but because she is no longer wearing the knight or samurai outfit of the past, but a set of ordinary women's clothing. It's just that even ordinary clothes look good on her body with excellent figure.

"Sure enough, it's much better to dress up as a woman. At least you don't need to wear a knight armor, so you don't have to wrap your chest." Asa smiled. "Looking at the way you walk, it won't be the first time in your life to wear a skirt."

"You..." Talis blushed, her expression extremely strange. "It's just that the teacher prevented us from bringing our equipment here, so we found a set of clothes temporarily."

"En." Asa thought for a while and said. I'm just bored, how about going for a walk together. "Asa walked over, took Talis's arm and walked away. Talis struggled for a while but couldn't break free, reluctantly followed a few steps, and finally threw Asa away with a violent shake of her hand. But it was already light Walk with Asa.

There are very few people on the long street, and the night scene of the capital, which used to be brightly lit and bustling, is gone now. There are only street lights illuminating the road.

If it were any other time, Asa would never dream of shopping with a woman even in his dreams, let alone this woman with him. But now is indeed a little different from other times.

"What do you want from me?" Talis kept silent, so Asa asked first.

Talis was silent for a while, and asked: "I heard. Why didn't you run away? You could have run away in the Forest of Whispers."

"It's very simple, because I don't want to escape." Asa looked at Talis. "What do you mean by asking this question? You don't seem to want me to run away."

"Of course not." Talis immediately replied loudly and decisively. Her expression was very strange, as if she was puzzled and somewhat resentful. "Why would someone as mean, nasty, and dark-hearted as you make such a great decision?"

"Great?" Asa laughed. "I don't think so. Do you think so?"

Under the dim streetlight, Asa could still see that Talis's face was flushed. She said loudly as if she was pleading: "You could have escaped to the Far East by yourself, but you chose to stay and die. Do you think that you are a hero and a great person by doing this?"

"What's wrong with you?" Asa looked at her and asked. He could see that something was wrong with her.

"I don't know, I really don't know." Suddenly Talis's voice began to choke. "I really don't know what is right and what is wrong. Who is right and who is wrong..."

It was Asa who was surprised. From the moment I met her. The temple knight single-handedly charged into the thieves' lair, killing blood and flying heads. She has always acted like a tougher man than a man, and even if it wasn't for some reason, he almost regarded her as a man.

"After the fall of Glory Castle. In fact, Teacher Lancelot asked me to follow you. He...he... said, if there is a chance, let me and you...and you..." Talis blushed to the extreme. However, at least half of them are the reasons for resentment. "He said that in this way, you probably won't run away."

"It's really a good idea." Asa smiled bitterly. Although Talis didn't say it, Asa asked Chu what she meant.

"You..." Talis almost jumped up. "I will never do it."

"Don't worry, I won't do what you want." Asa replied.

Talis suddenly stood still and looked at him. There were tears in his eyes. "Why did you...then why did you..." when you were in Nigan..."

"I lost control at that time, I'm really sorry." Asa looked into Talis's eyes and said solemnly. "Sorry."

"How could the teacher let me do this kind of thing? This kind of thing that only the dirtiest politicians and the most evil heretics would do? When I became a temple knight, I swore that my body and life All were dedicated to God, but the teacher... and you, sister Aiyimei died half because of you, and half because of the plan of the teacher and His Majesty. His Majesty also ordered Tamik to go to the Forest of Whispers to slaughter the elves , but in the end, those elves are allied with His Majesty again. What is going on? Can His Majesty and Teacher be regarded as good people, can they still be regarded as righteous? And a bad person like you can still be a great savior in the end The same role. Are you a good person or a bad person? Who will tell me whether what I have been doing is right or wrong? What I believed in before is nothing in the end, nothing at all?" Talis Already a little hoarse, tears have already flowed all over his face.

Asa sighed secretly. It turns out that the strength that women usually show is just because they have dependence and faith in their hearts. Faith can make people strong, and even suppress any feelings and support people's spirit, but once it collapses, people are so weak that they are nothing. As early as when he escaped from the Glorious Castle. Seeing Talis's reaction after facing Aimei who transformed into a Lich, Asa already understood.

Talis wiped the tears from her face, Asa saw the broken hand. He please clearly remember that it was broken by helping him block a sword.

"The world allows the so-called right and wrong. What you have done, no matter what the result is, you have to bear it yourself. It doesn't matter, anyway, what should have happened has happened. Nothing worse will happen again, which is actually a good thing Isn't it? Asa can't help but put her arms around Talis's shoulders. Her hands are delicate and soft and have the elasticity of her muscles.

Suddenly he seemed to feel something, and turned his head slightly to look at the Magic Academy in the dark. Talis didn't pay attention.

Lancelot flew down from the cathedral of the Academy of Magic. He sighed. His face seemed to relax a little.

Seventeen days is not a long time, even very short for such a huge battle that determines the fate of the entire continent. Soon, Lord Borugan also came from Oufu to assist in the arrangement.

It took only three days for Lancelot to return from the Principality of Cross with the teacher Caitlin. His face was full of exhaustion, and there were even some blood stains on his body that had long since dried up, and he didn't even have time to wash it off. All he brought back was one sentence: "The two thousand people are fine."

There is no need for Asa to intervene~IndoMTL.com~All the cumbersome details are like a huge and complicated jigsaw puzzle. How do all the pieces find their place and how do they relate to the surrounding pieces. As the days passed, all the pieces found their proper place. The armies of Western countries, including Erasia, have already started to set off in these two days. Seventeen days later, these most elite fighters will gather in the Feilong Desert to meet the huge undead army.

The troops of Ainfast and Oufu, who were farthest from the Shadow Spinning Mountains, did not move. One is that their distance is too far. It is impossible to arrive. The second is that they don't need to move.

Gru came with Mr. Borugan, and he brought not only the news of General Oufu's dispatch, but also four complete star eyes. It was too late to fully exploit the mineral deposits in the Sand Fes Mountains, and he recovered these four by himself.

The elves who had been waiting at the Magic Academy immediately brought the four gems back to the Forest of Whispers. Elder Lloyd and Luya will use the fastest speed to make them into two gates of different dimensions. This would be the only way for the Paladins and Euphon's orc hordes to get there.

Asa didn't feel whether the time was long or short. During this time, he was with Talis.
