Chapter 2928 Journey and Return
"My friends, I am watching you from the other side of time and wishing you the best. Even though I have been dead for many years, I am still with you."
The girl smiling at the fire intended to leave these words for Shade and the others who were able to find the bark to see, and she was looking forward to their expressions of gratitude.
The wolf's ears twitched again, and she heard footsteps again. But this time she did not ignore them, but stood up with a serious expression. Those were human footsteps. The girl who lived alone did not think it was normal to meet humans in such a place.
After pushing aside the dry grass, three women in neat black formal clothes came to the periphery of the campfire. The three of them had the same clothes and hairstyle, but none of them were human.
Elves, vampires, and dwarves, this combination is rarely seen even by the well-informed werewolf girl.
"Good night, Sibel Bist."
The leading high elf greeted her, using the greeting method used by the elf clan that worships the moon, so even the alert werewolf girl had to respond:
"Good night. Are you here to see me? What are you?"
But the tall elf did not introduce himself:
"The memory of that destroyed world should not be preserved by witches other than the thirteenth level. Even if it can be preserved, it should never be recorded on the bark of the World Tree. Miss Bister, you have violated the rules of time."
The Gray Wolf girl looked at the three of them and frowned slightly:
"So are you here to punish me? Or do you want to reclaim this piece of bark?"
As she spoke, she prepared for battle. She had heard the secret legends about these people, but this time she obviously misunderstood.
"We are the guardians of time. After the departure of the Tree Father, we are responsible for maintaining the stability of time in the material world. You did nothing wrong. Everything that happens in the long river of time is inevitable because it can happen. However, this piece of bark and your existence will affect many things in the future. Therefore, we would like to invite you to join us."
The high elf extended his hand to her, and the gray wolf blinked his beautiful eyes a few times:
"join in?"
"Become a time guardian like us, leave your timeline, and walk through all the time from the beginning to the end. You cannot go to some special destroyed time."
The wolf-eared witch still couldn't understand the last half of the sentence, but she thought about it and didn't agree:
"I don't want to take on such a responsibility, and I still have a lot of things to accomplish in my current time. I am a werewolf pursuing the freedom of the moon. I admit that your mission is great, but I don't want to let responsibility restrict my freedom."
The Guardians of Time did not insist that she leave with them:
"Okay, but you have to promise not to show that piece of bark to anyone else."
"no problem."
She also understands the importance of maintaining time stability.
"I also want to remind you that if you are unwilling to leave with us at this moment, your future journey will be longer than you think."
The blood-sucking creature among the three spoke again at this time, and the gray wolf girl thought for a moment:
"Does this mean that I can rely on this piece of bark to become a thirteenth-level witch, or even a demigod, and live for a long time?"
The guardians did not reply, but said goodbye together:
"Maybe we will meet again someday in the future. I hope you won't regret your decision today."
"Why would I regret it if I had more time to chase the moon?"
The werewolf girl said, waving goodbye to them. Then she sat down in her little camp again and began to plan whether she really wanted to go to St. Byrons next.
(Little Mia is running.)
The shadow of the giant tree seemed to remain unchanged in the white mist, and in the windless space, there was still the rustling sound of the treetops swaying. Shade raised his hand and caught the green leaf that fell from the sky. He stared at the giant tree:
"Father Tree, can you give me the power to fight against the remains of the World Tree?"
The tree still didn't answer him, but the rustling sound became more and more frequent. Shade and the cat looked up under the tree. Before their figures disappeared in the white mist, both the man and the cat saw the golden color that was spread down.
[Outlander, you have returned to the present time. 】
"Even though you were only gone for three seconds, you two looked like you'd been through a lot, Shade. How come Mia didn't turn into a toy this time and came out with you?"
I heard Luvia's voice in my ears, and when I came to my senses, I was already in the banquet hall of the "Glorious Messenger".
Iluna was standing next to him. The 18-year-old girl had a lost expression on her face.
"Now I know how Shade felt. He went from being strangers to knowing others, and finally experienced wonderful adventures together. Then he separated from them and never saw them again. It really felt bad. Emilia is not here. It seems that she should have succeeded this time."
“Emilia?”
The red-haired girl who was also waiting for Shade here asked in surprise:
"Wait, you two met Emilia? Aren't you going to some strange tree academy?"
The witches also gathered around. They had just eaten breakfast and watched Shade and Iluna go on an adventure, but they didn't expect to get such news.
So Iluna explained from her own perspective how she returned to the Alien Tree Academy earlier than Shade and encountered the elf who looked like he was about to cry. Although this incident involved two intertwined timelines, everyone could understand it.
"So Emilia was finally taken back to the middle of the Fifth Era by that green dragon maid, right?"
The little princess finally asked worriedly, and Luvia asked Xiang Xiade:
"None of us expected this to happen. Can you confirm Emilia's current situation?"
Her original intention was probably to ask Shad to ask the elves in the forest, but Shad thought that since Miss Wilder could write to him through the notes left at tea time, she should be able to write about Emilia's situation as well.
But he immediately thought that if communication between the two times could really be achieved in this way, Fiona would have done it long ago. It should be the power of the contract that bound the dragon maids to only be able to complete the work of maids.
“No need to confirm. Since God has promised to help, Emilia’s destination cannot be wrong this time.”
"I'd better go back to the academy to confirm. Maybe she left some traces. Mother-in-law Qisala might know something too."
Miss Danister said this and left in a hurry. At this point, the adventure of the Time Key in Ashvale officially ended.
At the end of this adventure, the witches were all amazed by Miss Los Metz's transformation into an angel.
"It is even more unlikely for a mortal to become an angel than to become a demigod."
Grandma Cassandra sighed and said that what the old witch said made sense. Shad had seen many demigod witches so far, but he had only seen two or three mortals who had become angels. He also met one when he was listening to the god telling the story of the seven-day journey in the Lost Forest, but he didn't know the background story of that person at all.
"It seems that if you want to become an angel, you have to spend a long time to show your loyalty and piety. This is the case with Miss Gina Angela Sewell of Tobesk Underground and Miss Los Metz of the Different Tree Academy."
Iluna concluded, and then happily showed everyone the faintly visible angel wing mark on the back of her right hand. She had made a huge gain this time:
"Look at this!"
So the ladies' attention was focused:
"what is this?"
“This is the power that the angel lent me.”
"Then can you call out the angel?"
Karina asked, and Iluna shook her head hastily:
"This shouldn't be possible, but while it lasts, it can greatly increase my vitality and the speed of my spirit's recovery, and allow me to obtain magic related to the god to which this angel belongs in my dreams. If I consume the mark at once, I can..."
"Incarnation of an angel?"
The little princess asked enviously, which reminded Shad of the disposable alchemical tool made by Priest Augustus at Green Lake.
"It's not an incarnation of an angel, it's a temporary transformation into the thirteenth ring. I'm currently a ninth ring, and with this power, the spirit runes of the tenth to thirteenth rings can allow me to choose from the knowledge I've learned and fill them into my life ring until my power level reaches the thirteenth ring.
In this state, I can even use the Word of Sublimation, but it will speed up the consumption of power, after all, it is a one-time use."
"But you still haven't chosen Gao Huan's words of sublimation, right?"
Luvia asked her again, and Iluna nodded. She was still considering it. However, with this opportunity to temporarily transform into the thirteenth ring, she could try out the effects of different high-ring sublimation words.
Then the purple-eyed fortune teller looked at Shade again:
"Why did our knight become so silent after returning? In the story Iluna told you, you didn't encounter anything that made you depressed. Did the god say anything to you?"
"No no."
Xia De stroked the cat and shook his head. He was still thinking about the maze lock.
The power of "moderation" has now become another chance given to him by the old god [Lord of the Black Robe], but he feels that he will never use it. As for the fairy tale puzzle lock that has always symbolized positive spirit, now there are new components composed of negative characteristics, he actually still has some concerns in his heart:
"That god said a lot of things I couldn't understand, but the general meaning was that the remains of the World Tree were not the World Tree after all, and told me not to stress so much. Anyway, this journey has come to an end, and the new time key will be opened after the matter in Vista City is over.
Let's get down to business today. I had a chat with the devil last night, and basically answered the last doubt. Emilia has arrived at St. Byron's Comprehensive College and will definitely come back within four days. So, before she comes back, let's solve the troubles that block the road first. "
