Chapter 820: Returning Mariret
The speed of his attack was extremely fast, and Held's body was seriously injured, and he was manipulating a double across dimensions, which resulted in a somewhat slow reaction.
After she came to her senses, a mark the size of a fingertip, like a button pressed on her cheek while sleeping, was imprinted on the surface of her healthy, slightly wheat-colored skin.
A pair of eyes immediately gave off a piercing cold light and an aggressive aura, and the good-looking face suddenly turned gloomy and cold.
There was anger growing in her heart, but she also understood that now was not the time to fall out. The deal was agreed and it was best to escape safely.
The races in the demon world have basically been traumatized to varying degrees, and major organizations have also suffered losses. Although hiding the Silent City again is a feasible method, the consequences of this aggressive war are obviously not so easy to recover from.
As the highly respected second apostle in the demon world, she will inevitably have to step in to mediate in the next period of time.
"Can you release the space blockade?"
"good."
Ye Lin nodded lightly in agreement, retracted his weapon at the same time, and took half a step back. Although the other party was just a stand-in, the blessing of his own spirit meant that he was having a direct conversation with Held.
Make a transaction calmly and get what you need. Maybe this will be the only time.
He made a gesture to Balil and Qulil. Although it could not be directly observed by the naked eye, a layer of mysterious restrictions had quietly disappeared.
However, Held did not leave directly through the air. Instead, she looked around the surrounding islands and oceans with some nostalgia. With her strong strength, she should be able to see farther.
"It's still the same beautiful and intoxicating world as the last time I came here."
Hearing this, Yelin nodded and smiled, without making any comments or expressions. The last time she mentioned it might have been under the pseudonym Hayid during the reign of Bakar, or it might have come secretly when Anton was being transferred.
Although I heard that the Moller Valley in Brooklyn, where she lives, has green grass and birds singing and the fragrance of flowers, the gloomy environment in other places still creates a strong contrast when she goes out.
The perfect planet Terra in Held's memory may also be as beautiful and picturesque as this.
After that, the two fell into silence for a long time, and Held seemed to be waiting for someone on purpose.
An elegant silhouette appeared, and Alice gently stepped on the huge ice floe on the sea.
She heard Bakar's previous taunting voice very clearly. Since the other person was just a substitute, even though his appearance looked exactly the same, the overwhelming sense of pressure was invisibly lessened.
Slender white fingers caressed the devil's instrument. This legendary instrument with a unique shape and a top like a wing was given by Held and has been with her for a long, long time.
The moment they looked at each other, Held's eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts and control everything. Alice's heart suddenly trembled. Her knees weakened under her long skirt, and she almost staggered and collapsed.
Ye Lin, who had quick eyes and quick hands, hurriedly took a step closer to help him. He was sure that Held had not committed any aggressive behavior. The reason why Alice's pretty face was pale and her beautiful legs were weak was probably because the opponent's prestige had been accumulated for a long time and had a profound influence.
"Master Held, I'd better give this piano back to you."
Her soft body was so weak that she was almost hanging on him. With a solid support beside her, she felt a little comforted in her heart.
With a light hand, Mariette, the sage of demons, a musical instrument regarded as a legend in the demon world, was gently suspended in front of Held.
Legend has it that this instrument can communicate with the most original elemental power, allowing the holder's magic practice to reach a higher level.
Moreover, it also has unusual attack methods. The most talked-about thing is that in the Demon Realm Alliance meeting, Alice defeated the dazzling pattern master Niwu in one song, stunning the Demon Realm.
Mariette was a musical instrument that Held gave to Alice when she created her. From then on, she never left the instrument and regarded it as her own life.
Held raised his head slightly and glanced at the magic piano. He made no move to put it away. For the first time, a curious expression appeared on half of his face: "Alice, when did you start to doubt your identity?"
As the most perfect doll, the amount of effort she put into Alice was no less than her own substitute.
In order to prevent the strong people from noticing the difference, she gave Alice a high degree of autonomy and only used the curse of evil spirits to control Alice so that she could not disobey her orders.
For a long time after the Dragon War, Alice was almost her incarnation, and her status and value could not be replaced by the Void Mage Ron.
She had been vaguely aware of Alice's resisting thoughts, and a holy and beautiful soul was truly born in this body.
But at that time, she was too busy trying to transfer the phenomenon and didn't pay much attention to it. Only later did she become vigilant.
"Probably, it was when we were in the Demon World Alliance." Alice's expression was dazed for a moment. She had always chosen to hide the memories of the past in the deepest place and not take the initiative to recall them.
"After admitting defeat, Niwu asked me how I could cultivate such powerful magic and music. I suddenly realized that I had no memory of my childhood. It was completely blank. My strength seemed to be innate. I didn't have any practice music.
memories."
She should have asked her teacher Held about this problem of memory loss, but at that time, she suddenly felt a hint of rebellious psychology and chose to hide it.
It wasn't until he left the demon world for heaven that Held finally noticed it, and then deepened the control effect of the evil spirit curse.
"Lord Held..."
Alice's eyes were sad, and she tried to open her mouth several times, but was still speechless.
Ask her why she has manipulated him for nearly a thousand years?
But this body was created by the other party. It was she who gave her the chance to be born, a special existence like a mother.
She is not as naive as Erica and thinks Held is a good person.
Whether it is good or bad depends on different standpoints.
"Alice, no one in this world is more suitable and better at controlling the magic piano than you. Treasures also choose people."
Mariette gently returned to Alice, and the magic piano seemed to be making happy sounds because of its true owner.
After hesitating for a while, Alice gratefully accepted the Magic Piano. After all, it was something that had been with her since she was born, and she already had a feeling that was hard to let go of.
The knot in my heart has been partially undone.
The past is the past, she has a recognized and kind heart like gold. From now on, Alice will be just Alice.
…
"When I return to the Demon Realm in the future, if I have a chance, how about playing a song for me? The last time I heard you play was hundreds of years ago."
"Definitely."
Holding Mariette in her arms, Alice bowed deeply, and after a long time, she turned around and left with a smile.
Held, whose expression had always been expressionless, finally showed a trace of undetectable fluctuations in his only exposed left eye.
Her family had all been ruthlessly devoured by the disaster in the tragic explosion on Terra.
The maker, Luke, often wakes up from nightmares, dreaming that he is being hunted and died in the unknown darkness.
How could it be that I had been dreaming about the devastating explosion on Terra all night long?
In the past, the twelve man-made gods who exuded dazzling light, were worshiped by all people, and were endowed with "Biana", the "light and justice" in the myth of Terra, were completely destroyed.
…
After a brief absence of concentration, Held's staff touched the ice lightly, and the space behind it shattered like a mirror, revealing a scene of darkness and depth.
Held, who was still nostalgic for the tenderness before, suddenly felt a chill on his face, and Ye Lin, who seemed to have relaxed after reaching a cooperation, did the same.
boom--!
Hundreds of feet of waves exploded from the surrounding sea, instantly covering their figures. The sword energy combined with magic, each of them struck a powerful blow.
They were misaligned with each other. He was already facing Held from behind, but the distance was very close.
A wisp of bright red blood slid quietly along the graceful slender waist and onto the wheat-colored skin.
The sea breeze roared, and Ye Lin, who was leaning forward, suddenly had a translucent gauze fluttering on his face, occasionally blocking his eyes.
At first he didn't feel the pain of being attacked, so he subconsciously reached out and pulled the piece of gauze over with force.
"You are looking for death!" Held growled, extremely coldly.
Bang!
Chapter completed!
