New Eternal Day

Chapter 15 Divinity

I couldn't see what the man in black robe was thinking. He was addicted to alchemy, but he was disdainful of gold.He looked cold to strangers, but there was a hint of loneliness in his words.

"How long have you been here?" I couldn't help asking.

"I've been here since I was eight years old," the black-robed man said lightly with lowered eyebrows, "Let me tell you a story."

Once upon a time there was an old king who paid a great price to get everything he wanted.He has three sons, the eldest is a man with a strong thirst for power.

The second and third sons are siblings, but they are very different from birth.It is said that twins compete with each other for nutrients in the womb, so there is always one strong and one weak.

Unfortunately, the younger brother of the twins is the stronger one, outrageously strong.At the age of two, he was born as a beast, at the age of four, he was able to change his form and shadow, and at the age of six, he was identified as the only blacksmith who could possess more than three kinds of divinity...

"Eight-year-old lost in the Lost Forest?" I interrupted him suddenly, "Are you Leon Cero?"

The man in black robe did not deny it, but raised the corner of his mouth and smiled, "It's been a long time since no one called my name."

"But I've never seen Prince Eddard and your brother Richie." I was a little confused.

"Said you met my brother, Colin. He and sister Amber were both born after I entered the Lost Forest.

I've never met them, but wouldn't it be wonderful to share some of their memories?"

"The average person hates others to see the depths of their hearts, right? They allow you to do this?" I asked my doubts without hesitation.

"Ability and desire are two different things. Even if I don't look at it deliberately, these traces will exist in my mind and merge with my own memory." Lean not only was not angry, but explained.

I carefully digested what Lean said. I only knew that Yuhu and I were in danger at the birthday party. From the conversation between Alipei and the guests, I learned that he may have a distinguished status, but I never thought that he was the youngest of Dereus. Son - born like me in the peaceful times after the plague of darkness.

In Achiutan's worldview, Colin's father killed my grandfather (though my grandfather may be reading or mowing at home right now) and took my mother's throne (my mother actually had a throne to inherit).

Logically speaking, Colin is a generation older than me.Why did I come to Achutain, why do I have to stand against such a lovely child? Life is so unpredictable, I thought to myself.

"Anyway, I'm going to find the man who cast the spell," I muttered.No matter what Della's purpose is to suffer for me, those people are targeting me.

"It's just you?" Lean looked at me up and down, his tone full of smiles, "I've been walking for so many years and I can't get out. You are a white dick, what skills do you have?"

I was silent. Needless to say, I also know that the Lost Forest is called the Lost Forest, not because it looks like a labyrinth, but because everyone who comes here will see an illusion.

Some people's fears come from their hearts, and some people's fears are attributed to the future.I'm not even sure if Lean is real, but I choose to take it one step at a time.

The golden leaf is precious because it was picked by those who bravely entered the forest and carried out by magic.Except for the immortal, there should be few people who can live to get it.

"You don't have any money here, so what do you do with alchemy?" I casually found a topic to break the awkward atmosphere just now.

"What does alchemy do? Of course, it's to cultivate sentiment. Do you know how boring it is to face these trees and grass, day after day, year after year? I know a lot of tricky spells, but after I learn it, I can Feeling irritable because I have nothing else to do.

Those high-level spells are not worth mentioning at all. I have nothing to do and invented some more difficult ones. I can teach you if you want to learn them. "Lean rubbed his chin and looked at me tentatively.

"Why do I want to learn something that can get no more than three people and can't even take the exam." Maybe I didn't expect that I would refuse so quickly, and Lean was suddenly unhappy.

"Idiot, it's really pedantic. You know these things that others don't, isn't it a very powerful thing to use it to control others?"

"But I don't want to control anyone, I like freedom, and I won't interfere with other people's freedom."

"I'll ask you, won't you pick up gold when you see it on the road?" Lean was a little anxious.

"What do I do to pick it up, what doesn't belong to me will be returned one day. I'd rather not have it than this."

"Well, you little girl, you have a big heart, and nothing can get into your eyes. You're going to be mad at me. How can my brother see you as a freak." Lean simply sat down and stopped looking at me. After a while, he said angrily.

"To tell you the truth, I have three kinds of divinity, which means that I have three kinds of abilities in different fields, which ordinary people do not have. These three are alchemy, prophecy, and knowledge stealing.

I can only steal my blood brother's spiritual knowledge, and I see your future.Your future is... not flat.You'd better learn more now before you die and blame me for not telling you. "

After Lean finished speaking, he disappeared, leaving only his faint voice hovering around me.

"The man who casts the spell is very powerful, you can't find him. But you can find the spellbreaker, and he can save your friend. You will need my power, and you will definitely come back to me with golden leaves. Come to the Lost Forest, I'll be there for you. Wind, send the princess out of the country."

Suddenly, a gust of wind rolled my whole body up, and I couldn't see anything in my eyes, but it was all flying sand and rocks.My hair blew into my eyes and mouth and I couldn't breathe against the wind.

When I opened my eyes again, I was on my knees with my hands on the ground.Nock lay beside me, his eyes full of tears, his facial features twisted together in pain, his father's short sword clenched in his hand.

At the entrance to the forest, we could vaguely see a faint light behind us, and a light collector above our head was turning silently.

"Nock... wake up, we're out." Nock slowly opened his eyes, as if sluggish for a century.After an unknown amount of time, he sat up and rubbed his eyes with his elbow.

"What did you see?" I asked cautiously.

Nock shook his head at me and reached out his hand for me to pull him up.

I thought he didn't want to talk, so I didn't ask any more.We both walked forward one after the other.

I pretended to be relaxed and said, "Let's go back quickly, we need to find someone to save Della. Just first..."

"I dreamed that you died..."

Nock regained his usual sanity and said lightly.

"You, me, Mera... I dreamed we were all dead."

I looked at him and said nothing.
