In the overgrown courtyard of Vanessa's cabin, a large bowl excavated a hidden basement, Vanessa's last manuscript left before she fell asleep, and the spiritual magic that Sayer had never shared and demonstrated reappeared in the world.
Vanessa gave the treasures belonging to the two of them that Sayer had hidden in despair to Lu Yu and the others.
"You are the most suitable candidates. It is up to you to continue on the unfinished road that Sayer and I have left."
In addition to "Advanced Doll Making" and "Race Observation Manual", a series of manuscripts that had been carried back to the Dawn Territory by Lu Yu, they saw "Extension of the Magic Field and Domain" written by Sayer in his later years because he missed Vanessa. , "Weapon Enchanting Medium", "An Overview of Spiritual Magic" and many other works that have accumulated dust. The span of their fields is so vast that it is mind-numbing.
After carrying all the useful objects in the hut to the stupid dragon, Sera's eyes stayed on the giant kneeling on one knee and the butterfly puppet that was no longer flying.
It seems that the magic wave has brought huge magic disturbance to the Silent Mountains, causing both dolls to be affected to varying degrees. At this moment, they can no longer patrol the mountains and can only enter the most basic guard mode to guard against enemies that invade the barrier.
Lulu understood what Sera meant. She wanted to step forward, but suddenly she seemed to think of something and stopped again. She shouted from a distance: "The giant and the butterfly will stay for now. When the magic wave ends, Huo Gu can move the entire hut together. The method of dismantling the giant should be in the manuscript. As long as we know the method, we can transport it to the Dawn Territory and reassemble it."
Sera's mood was very subtle. On the way back to the Silent Mountains, Lulu not only kept a certain distance from herself, but also from Lu Yu. She tried to say something to her, but soon her face turned red and she even chatted. Your mind will wander along the way.
Faced with this difficult situation that had never occurred before, the idea of asking Lu Yu came to Sera's mind, but she quickly gritted her teeth and fiercely denied it.
Lulu looked left and right, curiously looking for the summoned object to ask about Lu Yu's whereabouts, but found that both Dawan and Xu had disappeared.
The mist demon said: "He seemed to have said that he was going to Thoresen to settle some regrets for Vanessa."
"Is it a separate instruction in the teacher's letter?"
"It seems so." The fog demon said.
Just as Lu Yu was very curious about the letter in her hand, Lulu was also very curious about what Teacher Vanessa said to Lu Yu alone.
Thinking of the shocking facts in her own letter...she was really itchy.
The last time he arrived at Thoresen, Lu Yu needed to lie as a seventh-level summoner to walk calmly in this ancient city, ignoring the scrutinizing gazes cast by the elves. Now, Lu Yu's mentality has developed. Earth-shaking changes.
According to his memory, he once again came to the mansion of Vanessa's biological father, Baron Abel.
The attendants in the mansion subconsciously wanted to stop him, but were easily thrown out by Xu Yu beside Lu Yu.
The alarmed Baron Abel walked out in his pajamas with a solemn expression: "There is still some time before the deadline for collecting statistics. Although this is His Majesty's intention, are there some [Forest Guards]... are you?"
Baron Aibel, who mistook Lu Yu for another group of uninvited guests, looked suspicious: "Human... coming from the Grand Empire?"
Sitting casually on the soft chair, Lu Yu reminded him jokingly: "The Baron is quite forgetful. We met three years ago."
Abel, who was standing by the guardrail on the second floor, was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until the panicked family guards arrived that he recalled something.
"Are you...the seventh-level summoner?"
After stopping the guards who were about to attack Lu Yu, Aibel asked, "You have already left Thoresen, why did you come back again?"
Lu Yu glanced at him sideways, and slowly took out the scroll in his arms to confirm the information above. Seeing that almost everyone in the Aibel family showed up, he spoke: "I will visit again because of my kindness." Teacher’s parting instructions.”
"The former Vanessa Abel gave up the surname that filled her with painful memories. After being abandoned into the Silent Mountains, she did not die. She went to the vast world and witnessed the magnificent scenery that you can't understand or imagine, and gained He has learned a great knowledge that cannot be compared with the sum of thousands of wise men in Thoresen..."
In his widened eyes, Lu Yu solved the mystery that he had not solved the last time they met.
"My teacher Vanessa, she is a ninth-level magician."
Lu Yu stared straight at Baron Abel, the head of the family who had just picked up the wine glass and planned to drink during the day. The wine flowed straight from his mouth. The hand holding the wine glass trembled slightly, and then the range of his movements began to change. big.
When his eyes met Lu Yu's, he breathed out his nose and laughed "haha". His laughter was suddenly sharp and unrestrained.
"Ninth level, hahahahaha, Mr. Lu Yu, your lie is really clumsy. What makes you think that such a lie can deceive me? What aspect of the Aibel family caused Mr. Lu Yu's dissatisfaction, so that You would never forget to come back three years ago and three years later to threaten and deceive us?"
The mansion was filled with wild laughter mocking Lu Yu's stupidity. They unabashedly ridiculed the "ninth level" in Lu Yu's mouth. It was ridiculous enough to mention Vanessa's eighth level last time, but they actually said it this time. A territory that has almost never been explored before.
Abel said: "A cripple who was born with aphasia and acquired blindness turned out to be a ninth-level magician. Mr. Lu Yu, I have to admit that when you told her that she was an eighth-level magician, we really had trouble sleeping and eating. Later, We were shocked to realize that this might just be a harmless little joke you made. Maybe people like you always like to see people disturbed by a few words, but I have to say that Level 9, hahahaha... is too clumsy."
Lu Yu put away the scroll, looked at Aibel with pity, and unhurriedly pulled out a manuscript from the backpack he carried.
"I really don't want to meet you. You should be lucky that my teacher doesn't want me to do anything inappropriate. She is tolerant enough to you, and this tolerance comes from understanding your ignorance."
"You are not humiliating the Abel family, but humiliating the entire Thoresen!"
"The knowledge you possess is indeed not enough to be valued highly. In my hometown, there is a story about a frog squatting at the bottom of a well, croaking and making endless noises. In his eyes, the world is only the size of the mouth of the well. "Lu Yu said, "Teacher, it's polite enough to say that you are ignorant."
Lu Yu ignored the furious Aibel and waved to Adeline, who kept Vanessa's portrait and always remembered her sister.
Adeline glanced at her brothers and sisters, but was glared hard by Abel, and did not dare to step forward.
"So this is the reason why Mr. Lu Yu is interested in the Aibel family. You have a soft spot for my daughter, so you want to play such a clumsy trick on us, right?"
Lu Yu ignored him and shook the manuscript in his hand with a smile: "Adeline, do you believe that your sister has become a ninth-level magician? If I tell you that this manuscript was written by your sister, How would you choose the gift given to you?”
Abel's voice paused while he was shouting. Although he was still disdainful, his tone had softened a lot, and his eyes showed naked desire.
"I……"
"It's up to you to decide your path. I'm just responsible for bringing her final will and figuring out how to choose."
Lu Yu glanced at Aibel: "Are you dragged down by a stupid, incompetent waste who has been studying how to climb up all his life but never got what he asked for? Or are you choosing to change this boring life? You can see the boring life in a few decades." destiny."
"Think back to the night when you last met your sister, feel the aura she exuded, and make your decision."
Adeline's heart, which was still trembling, suddenly calmed down. Lu Yu's words seemed to contain some kind of magic, causing her thoughts to drift back to the past for a moment, to the time when the moon was bright and the aisles were filled with silvery white. Square grid, all the servants looked at the wall and thought about their mistakes, but the sister quietly came to the bed and hugged her at night...
She couldn't remember her sister's words or her expression at that moment, but she vaguely remembered... the pleasant floral fragrance on her sister's body, and the butterfly floating behind her that could control the movement of furniture in the house.
Adeline's eyes became clear and resolute. Regardless of her father's obstruction and the hostile eyes of her brothers and sisters, she went straight to Lu Yu and reached out to take the manuscript.
As the manuscript unfolded, the paper containing magic began to burn, and Vanessa's shadow appeared in the air.
Abel's pupils trembled sharply and his whole body trembled. Looking at this "Vanessa" who was staring down at everyone, he felt a suffocating sense of oppression.
"When this manuscript is unfolded, I must have returned to the 'Aibel family' again."
"Father...oh no, Sir Abel, please forgive me for calling you that. The night you abandoned everything about me, I had nothing to do with the name of Abel anymore. I thought I would never come back to this place again." It was a land that made me sad, but when Lu Yu told me that Adeline always remembered how I took care of her when she was a child, and left my portrait regardless, and even felt deeply guilty about it, I suddenly changed my mind."
"Does the Aibel family still remember those children who were thrown into the Silent Mountains to die by your blood theory?"
"You must have forgotten that in the eyes of someone who is as keen on speculation as you are and who is always willing to do whatever it takes, even abandoning your loved ones without hesitation, a group of disabled children is naturally an insignificant price, right?"
"But Sir Abel... I can't forget it." Vanessa's voice gradually became lower, "Nettie Mel, Rebecca, Aaron, Reina, Karen, Posta... they all have names, They are all children..."
"They have lived, and in order for their parents to wake up from the blood theory that you constantly advocate, they have worked hard day after day in the Silent Mountains, fighting against monsters and cruel beasts..."
"They just want to live. What's wrong with being disabled? Is it because we have tainted our bloodline, or is it because our bloodline is so filthy that we are made of it?"
This is the question that Vanessa suppresses in her optimistic and positive heart. She never understands her parents' unfeeling.
Hundreds of years later, with her departure, perhaps no one will remember the group of disabled people struggling to survive. As the magic tide changes, perhaps the Silent Mountains will disappear and become land that can be reclaimed.
Vanessa paused: "Adeline, cut off all thoughts and leave here. I will store everything I can prepare for you in Lu Yu's hands. You have similar 'possibilities' to me, go out , realize, and then... awaken."
"This is the last thing my sister can do for you."
Vanessa's shadow began to disappear, and she asked jokingly: "Baron Aibel, the disabled child you abandoned has embraced the ninth level. I wonder if you have clung to Thoresen's supreme sixth-level magician?"
Little particles of light disappear with the wind.
"It's impossible...this is an illusion created by you..." Abel murmured softly, "For Adeline, you are so treacherous!"
"It's impossible...she's a cripple!" Abel gritted his teeth and shouted, "How could she become the ninth level? Why should she? She is obviously a cripple!"
Abel covered his head as he spoke, wailing at the top of his lungs, repeating "impossible" and "I don't believe it" back and forth.
The servants came forward to comfort him, but they were pushed away by him. He pointed at Lu Yu suddenly: "It's your fault, it's definitely your fault."
Everything was similar to the teacher's guess. Lu Yu took out another scroll and handed it to Adeline who couldn't calm down: "Trigger it."
Adeline complied in a daze, and in an instant, the earth shook.
The people in the mansion rushed out of the house, only to find a huge clay giant looking down at everyone.
"Half Thoresen will be in ruins if it moves."
Abel, who had a certain amount of magic power, was trembling all over. Unable to deceive himself anymore, he became furious and blood oozed from the corner of his mouth. He covered his heart and fell straight down.
As the servants scrambled to rescue her, Adeline accepted the path Vanessa had arranged for her amid anxiety and expectation.
Lu Yu nodded with satisfaction: "Chenxi Comprehension will provide you with the basic knowledge and equipment needed for your trip. In the words of the teacher, your path lies under your own feet, and all the future is yours to create."
When everything was settled, Lu Yu opened the teacher's scroll again and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Teacher... I have helped you resolve the last trace of fate before your death. Please be sure to meet us again... We will always look forward to that day."
On the way back to the Silent Mountains, Adeline plucked up the courage and asked curiously: "Mr. Lu Yu, my sister, what kind of person is she?"
Lu Yu smiled and said, "She... it's a long story. Maybe you need to read her diary yourself."
“The path she has taken is unprecedented.”
"However, now it is up to us to continue on that path."
