This is a myth and legend from an unknown country. The girl does not know the specific relationship between the characters in it. She only knows that this magic book, which is a fragment, records such a story——
The son of Cronus, the god Chiron, who has the appearance of a centaur, has had immortality characteristics that distinguish him from other gods since birth.
Chiron's life is full of tragedy. Although he lived in a happy family for the first half of his life, due to a trick of fate, he was abandoned and experienced many years of suffering.
In the past, the centaurs were unruly and brutal by nature, but Chiron was not like that. After being adopted by the god Apollo, he received a comprehensive education and showed outstanding talent and wisdom.
Chiron's ability is outstanding among the centaurs. He is almost omnipotent and omniscient in playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, bow, arrow, sword and gun, fist and sumo wrestling, and the world of heaven and earth. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he was also kind, fair, and hospitable. He once lived in seclusion in a cave and taught unparalleled martial arts. Any of his students who only learned one skill would be able to dominate the world.
Unfortunately, one of Chiron's students, Hercules, accidentally wounded a Centaur bandit with an arrow soaked in Hydra's poisonous blood. Although he saved his life, he was tortured by the poison and left with unbearable pain.
At that time, the god Prometheus was tied to a cliff and tortured by the king of gods for stealing fire from heaven for human use. One day, Hercules came here in search of the tree-keeper Hesperides. He saw an evil eagle pecking at the liver of Prometheus, so he took out his bow and arrow and killed the evil eagle from Prometheus. Hughes shot an arrow next to his liver, then unchained him and took him away from the cliff.
When Chiron learned of this, in order to avoid being discovered by the God King, he decided to exchange himself with Prometheus and ordered Heracles to leave him on the cliff as a substitute.
Although Chiron could ask for eternal life, in order to save Prometheus, he suffered from the poison of Hydra at the same time, so he was willing to give up his life to let Prometheus escape from the pain and give up eternal life himself, so that both parties could be freed. .
The story is like this, very simple and straightforward, just like the legend that Tianeste first left in the world, it is full of mythical color.
But the girl seemed a little hesitant because she didn't know whether Ryder could accept such a result.
"I'm thinking, if Ryder knows that the magic book he has been longing to unlock only contains such an insignificant mythical story that he doesn't even know where it comes from, even if he is as calm as he is..."
"Tell him!"
However, compared to the hesitant girl, Kruger laughed disapprovingly.
"If you don't say it now, your hesitation will make it even more difficult for you to say it many years later. What's more, you should know best what kind of character Ryder is. On the contrary, if he collapses easily because of this little thing, then I will laugh at him for the rest of his life. of."
"Eh? Now? Is there really no problem? Is it too late? I'm not referring to the sky, but...ummm..."
The elegant and profound elf took away the girl's hesitation with a kiss. At the same time, the young man who was leaning on the outside of the door and overheard the conversation pushed up his glasses, shook his head in amazement, and then walked away holding the magic book. And go.
As Krueger said, Ryder was not swayed by this setback at all, and he also believed that the story was not meaningless. In his view, Chiron's story conveys a positive spiritual power that can inspire him to keep moving forward in life and experience and realize his own value.
"It is like reminding us that when facing difficulties and challenges, we need to uphold courage, wisdom and kindness, and at the same time we should have dedication and sense of responsibility." Ryder believes that these principles are more effective than static magic. It made him realize something.
Regardless of whether this is the reason or not, Ryder can believe that this is the reason why the magister entrusted this book to him.
"Do you think... I should believe you?"
The Snow Witch huddled on the ground holding her staff, and the drifting snow had unknowingly buried her body. The echoes of her memory came to her ears, and she slowly opened her eyes in the darkness.
That was a day more than ten years later and four hundred years ago. It was also the first day that divine punishment came more than a hundred years after the Shenxiang War. I just remember that almost everyone at that time saw a purple-black shooting star streaking across the blue sky.
Livlin, Kruger and Sabatos Ryder were the first to find the location where the meteor crashed.
That is the source of everything, the beginning of division, the first demonic soldier to come to this world - the fifth sequence, the remaining chapter of Ercankino!
The nearby Kruger was parasitized by the magic soldiers and became the first-generation Demon King executive. However, before he could cause trouble, he was subdued on the spot by Ryder, who had just become the Grand Mage.
During the period when Kruger was imprisoned, Ryder seemed to have changed into a cold and speechless person. As a strong candidate to be the successor after the chief magician Nonise retired, he not only had a great influence on Livlin's Requests for condolences were ignored. Instead, someone was sent to monitor her every move and she was prohibited from having any contact with Kruger.
"Do you think... I/I should believe you?" The witch raised her head, her icy blue eyes overlapped with the angry eyes of the girl in her memory, she looked directly at the man confronting her in front of her, and asked.
Looking at the other party, the man's eyes went beyond her coldness, as if he had seen the end of time, and said calmly: "The Kruger you are familiar with is no longer there. Let's put down everything related to him and leave. I will treat you like that." It will feel better."
"Money, fame or status? What is it that makes you like this? Do you really want that stone so much? The so-called Philosopher's Stone?"
Listening to the other party's questioning, the man was unmoved: "That is synonymous with "miracle". The magic weapon that exists in the form of a magic book leads to the body of the immortal elf, plus the ancient sacred being guarded by Nonise." fire. Based on what I have learned throughout my life, I am 50% sure that I can cast the Philosopher's Stone. You know what this means. Even I will be able to gain eternal life by then! "
"Is this your reason? You even give up your best friend for this?!"
"No, Livlin, you are wrong. It's not that I gave up on Kruger, but that he voluntarily sacrificed himself."
The witch restrained her anger. She lowered her head with calm and deep eyes, staring at the girl who was frozen in the fragments of memory and still in shock.
A person cannot be awakened just for a moment. The witch has always thought so, and it is also true at this moment. It is precisely because she cut off her past a long time ago, so no matter how angry and angry the poor guy in front of her is, Confusion has nothing to do with who she is now.
At this moment, she was like a bystander, observing this "boring" farce in the deepest part of her memory.
"Remember that myth and legend?" He said: "Chiron met Prometheus and suffered for stealing fire for mankind, so he decided to give up eternal life and suffer for him. Chiron's ending should not have been like this, but his choice will not It’s wrong, because he knows that Prometheus is the hope for the continuation of human civilization!”
