LOL: The dark goddess covets me!

Chapter 78 Desire and Free Will
【Are you sure you're really okay? 】

"What can be wrong?"

Josh picked up another thumb-sized doll, which was dressed almost the same as the doll who attended the dance not long ago, and brushed off the dust on it with his hands.

So far, in total, he has found several dolls.

[I feel that you are depressed and absent-minded. 】

"..."

Josh didn't answer, just kept silent, and continued to look for the doll under the gravel.

On the other side of the ruins, Gwen was also looking for the ghost doll body that had just participated in the dance.

And Gawin was on guard at the ruins, on guard against the attacks of the black mist and the undead.

After being chased by the Iron Group and witnessing Josh's strength, even though Josh and Gwen didn't look like normal humans, Gawen was willing to take some risks and follow them.

Following them may not save your life, but if you act alone with the big clock on your back, the probability of being entangled by terrifying evil spirits is close to [-]%!

[Hey, cheer up, isn't it 1000 years?To the vastaya, this time is but a fleeting moment. 】

【Look at me, I have been sealed in a weapon for 700 years, and spent more than 500 years of it alone, suffering inhumane torture. 】

[Your little fox is so infatuated, you even used time projection to tell her that you are not dead, are you still afraid of her empathy? 】

Lunicia tried to comfort Josh.

It turns out, though, that she's good at sarcasm, but needs a lot of practice at comforting people.

When she said this, Josh was not in a good mood, but was even more eager to leave the place of right and wrong, to meet Ari, who had been waiting for him for thousands of years.

Lunicia also seemed to realize that her words were inappropriate, so she simply shut up and stopped talking.

The dullness between the two lasted until Josh rummaged through the debris, found a few more dolls, and asked impatiently, "Have you found the magic core that builds the white porcelain castle?"

[Go another 20 steps, behind that wall. 】

Following Lunicia's instructions, Josh came to the dusty wall without any weeds or tiny life, and found a butler doll dragging a tray.

When the ball was held, Josh also saw him serving "tea" with blue light to the guests.

It's just that there was no supernatural blessing at that time, the magic power on the scene was messy, and the distance was relatively far away. Josh had to focus on dancing with Gwen, so he didn't perceive it carefully.

【Buried under the soil, although the breath is weak, you should be able to feel it. 】

Josh used magic to push away the damp soil, and several "toy teacups" that were matched with the doll butler tray and appeared at the dance came into view.

With such a close contact, Josh naturally felt abnormal instantly.

"Water of life? No... this is the world rune fragment, the breath of the source of life?!"

[It seems that the reason why these dolls can be revived is a little different from that of little dolls. 】

After thinking for a moment, Lunisia analyzed: 【Is the doll here related to the little doll?I think their styles are the same. They should all come from the queen you mentioned, right? 】

[This place is relatively far away from Hailiya, but considering that the little dolls also recovered on the beach, there may have been an unprecedented explosion in Hailiya back then. Power influence, store a certain amount of recovery power? 】

"more or less."

However, Sheng Mi will be coveted by the black mist, as can be seen from today's encounter.

If these dolls recover, they will not be able to resist the black mist for too long with the power of a trace of world runes alone.

In other words, today's banquet was indeed specially prepared for Gwen to wake up, sense her breath, and the dolls woke up one after another.

but why?
Josh twitched his fingers and used magic to pull the doll teacup up.

While cleaning off the surface dirt, he added a little magic to it and fixed it on the pallet.

Staring at the doll butler in his palm for a moment, Josh put it back into the cloth bag at his waist.

At this moment, Gwen exclaimed from the other side: "Josh, come here!"

Josh restrained his mind and hurried to Gwen's side.

Her harvest was huge, and she found the buried white porcelain castle directly in the soil, but more than half of it collapsed.

Josh dug it out of the soil with magic, and the "shrunk version" of the castle he saw not long ago appeared in front of him.

Just like what Josh often saw before traveling, the pocket dollhouses used by children to play house games.

Even though the productivity of Kamavia thousands of years ago was far lower than that of the earth's modern industry, its workmanship is still not so exquisite.

"There is no other doll's breath here, and it has probably been found."

Josh took out the doll he found from his pocket and placed it with the one Gwen found in front of the white porcelain castle.

One host, one butler, five band conductors and members, 20 pairs of male and female couples, and a pair of twin sisters wearing the same dance skirt...

"It looks like it's just right."

"But I have one more..."

Gwen was stunned, and showed Josh the male doll in his hand.

It wears a half-cut gold mask with a ribbon, and is dressed gracefully and luxuriously, with a noble sword around its waist. It looks like it is exclusive to the royal family of Kamavia.

"Hasn't he a partner? I didn't seem to see him at the ball just now."

Gwen was puzzled, but soon overwhelmed by the deep sadness in her heart, she turned to Josh tearfully, and grabbed his cuff.

"But I seem to have seen him somewhere before, memories, dreams, or thoughts entrusted by the master... I can't remember.

"Josh, my heart hurts..."

[Why does this doll look more and more like the infatuated king who caused the curse of ruin? 】

Lunicia's doubts awakened Josh instantly.

Yes, I said why it looks so familiar!

This chin, these thin cheeks, take off the blindfold, is it not a proper Fiego template?
Josh remained silent, but with his right hand down, he gently held Gwen's small hand through the cold silk gloves.

But a sad girl always needs a shoulder to lean on.

Before Josh could react, Gwen took the initiative to lean over and leaned into his arms.

Josh froze, but fortunately he didn't hear Lunicia taking the opportunity to tease, so he relaxed a lot, and then fell into deep thought.

This doll, which looks like Viego, entrusts Isolde's love for him.

It seemed that Isolde wanted to use himself as a template and equip him with a well-crafted partner, but there was no time.

Gwen's body contained Isolde's soul fragments, so these dolls would actively revive under the influence of the soul's breath when passing here.

They mistook Gwen for Isolde, and prepared this dance party that was delayed by a thousand years...

It's just that Gwen has herself as a dance partner by her side, so the "prince" just doesn't have a chance to appear.

Or, Gwen made her own choice, so Isolde sacrificed her wish for her, and didn't let the "Prince" appear?

Josh didn't know how to feel.

When Gwen calmed down, he asked, "What are you going to do with these dolls? Take them away?"

Gwen bit her thin lips lightly, with pleading lights shining in her different eyes, and lightly scratched the back of Josh's hand with her fingers, looking pitifully guilty.

Gwen, who has just recovered from her doll state and inherited the good side of Isolde, has never been exposed to the dangers of human society and has no intentions. All these are the expression of her true inner feelings.

"Yes, can you?"

【Oops...why is it another ecstatic little fox! ] Lunisia put on a disgusted tone.

But Josh could still faintly hear that she seemed to wish she could help Gwen.

Gwen is so cute, how can there be people who don't like Gwen?

Josh looked back at the big clock behind his back, peeking here from time to time, wondering what happened to Gawen.

When he noticed that Josh was looking at him, Gawen swallowed, and quickly shifted his gaze, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Gawen."

"Yes! I'm here!"

Hearing Josh's shout, Gawen couldn't help but shiver, and immediately trot over, smiling obsequiously and rubbing his hands.

"May I ask what your benefactor has ordered?"

Josh glanced at the old clock with spiritual magic attached to his back, and pointed to the set of dolls on the ground.

"The clock you found...should be able to hold these?"

……

……

Because the timeline between Rune Wars and the intensive timeline of major events is too long, the official Rune Wars has skipped it without describing it in detail.

If you write Rune Wars, you need a lot of original content. There are not many familiar heroes. It’s too slow. It’s not that I don’t want to write. The words written are not friendly to those who are familiar with the background and those who are not familiar with the background, so just skip it ...

Subsequent content related to Rune Wars will be presented through Ahri's brief recollection, or a serious episode, depending on the situation.

Also, why did some people say that after a thousand years, it means that Ahri directly empathized with someone else, that the child belonged to someone else, and the protagonist was cheated on?I stepped on the horse and was speechless. .

Let’s not say that 1000 years is nothing to the vastayas. I should have mentioned it more than once in the previous article, right?I haven't written it yet, just give me a hat, y, brother? . .

Before jumping to conclusions, can you understand the background setting first? .Ari is an infatuated person, okay (_)
