The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 223: Benjamin and Evelyn

Remember in one second【】

Annan still remembers that nightmare.

The nightmare called "Reflection" belongs to Benjamin's girlfriend "Evelyn Miller".

He also remembers... the reason that made Benjamin want to become a transcendent and a black tower wizard was Evelin.

When Evelin was a child, she had long flowing hair, a beautiful and delicate appearance, and an extremely soft body. She can be called a natural dancer and is destined to become Yaweng's favorite.

As early as that time, she fell in love with Benjamin.

And one day after that... due to an accidental fire, Evelin was suddenly disfigured.

Her face was covered with burn scars, and her fair and smooth skin turned pink with atrophic scars. She even lost all her hair.

As a girl who loves beauty and a talented dancer whose only life plan is dance, this sudden despair almost ruined her entire life.

If Benjamin hadn’t still been with her, I’m afraid Evelin would have committed suicide long ago.

At the same time, it was precisely because of Benjamin's true love that ignored appearance and came from the heart that Evelin couldn't bear to leave.

At that time, she was obsessed with watching the dance of the Pale Princess in "Moon Dancer" - it was an ominous spiritual dance that would make ordinary people seriously ill just by taking a glance at it.

But it was precisely because of the love in Evelin's heart that she was favored by the Pale Princess and gained the privilege of becoming a half-dead daughter.

However, Evelyn did not know the cost of becoming a half-dead daughter for a mortal.

The essence of this job transfer ceremony is to use beautiful life and love as sacrifices, dedicating them to the pale princess in exchange for the corresponding mysterious knowledge and power. For Evelin, Benjamin was her entire life; her entire life was lived for Benjamin.

She immediately received the highest-level gift of extraordinary power.

It was only then that Evelin realized one thing.

That is, if she continues this ritual, dedicates her life to the pale princess, and transforms into a half-dead daughter in undead form, she will forever give up her love for Benjamin.

Evelin believes that this is undoubtedly a betrayal of Benjamin.

When she was disfigured and lost her future, when even her family was no longer close to her, and even began to fear and hate her... Only Benjamin did not abandon her.

Then, she cannot abandon Benjamin under any circumstances.

But if she refuses the ceremony directly, she will die after watching the Pale Princess' spiritual dance.

——Take a step forward, lose love, and leave Benjamin forever in spirit; take a step back, lose life, and leave Benjamin forever in body.

This is a dilemma.

And Evelin with her outstanding talent and wisdom.

In this dilemma of choosing one of the two, Evelin just found a third way——

She didn't want to choose anything.

She killed herself from the future - and when she was about to die, relying on her undead characteristics of becoming a half-dead daughter, she persisted until she compiled her nightmare.

And in the end, she used the time paradox she weaved to seal her soul into her nightmare. This "future me killed myself" story keeps repeating itself.

Because time continues to pass, the future will eventually become the present. And there will be a newer version of Evelyn in the further future.

In this way...as long as this nightmare is not purified, she will not die completely. Like the Pardoner from the gallery nightmare.

On the contrary, every time someone purifies this nightmare, she will die once and feel the pain of her soul being purified and torn apart.

Evelin believes that Benjamin in the future will definitely come back to save her.

Because of the puzzle she set up, someone with the ability to time must be able to completely purify this nightmare.

The way to purify this nightmare is to sort out this infinitely overlapping time loop, find the original thread, and figure out "how she killed herself from the future." Therefore, this nightmare is almost impossible to fully decipher.

Even Annan didn’t know how Evelin did it.

Because she was trapped in a time paradox, the Pale Princess, whose abilities completely involved time, could not have any impact on her. Neither her soul nor her newly gained abilities will be taken away by the Pale Princess.

Only by acquiring ritual abilities, magic or elements related to time can we find the girl hidden at the bottom of the timeline surrounded by numerous paradoxes... and rescue her again.

According to the information given by Salvatore.

Annan gradually recovered the entire incident.

"You in the future...will find me."

In the church of the Pale Princess, Evelin, whose body had become transparent and ghost-like, said this to Benjamin.

But Benjamin, who was not a transcendent at that time, could not understand the meaning of Evelin's words at all.

Afterwards, she turned into points of light and scattered in all directions... not even leaving a body behind.

This is a sign that she is about to be transformed into a half-dead daughter.

It is also evidence that Benjamin believes that she is not really dead.

But Benjamin waited there for three days and three nights.

He was so hungry that he felt dizzy and almost couldn't walk, but he still didn't see Evelin come back.

He could only think that Evelin's ritual failed - the pale princess was not willing to accept her soul. Or her soul has been living in the pale tide, no

Back to the human world again.

So Benjamin was heartbroken and left here.

After that, Benjamin would light the green fire lamp and come back here every year. Let’s see if we can wait for Evelin.

He studied the art of green fire and spread it to thousands of households... It was precisely because the green fire lit by the two people in that gloomy church was the last memory of the two in Benjamin's heart.

Benjamin in his youth can be said to be a talented person.

He reached the Silver Level before he was thirty.

He has several convenient inventions and has a considerable degree of popularity among the masses. Hugo, the owner of the tower, regarded him as a candidate for the son of the tower, and he had a handsome face and a good family background.

If things went according to normal development, he would probably have gotten married and had children long ago.

Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe... it was because the fate between the two was not over yet. When Benjamin paid homage to Evelin one year, he was accidentally pulled into Evelin's nightmare.

When he woke up, tears were streaming down his face.

He clearly realized that Evelin was still waiting for his rescue.

He finally recalled that sentence, and with the extraordinary knowledge he had accumulated over the years, he guessed its meaning:

Her ritual did not fail.

Evelyn is just like what was sung in the prayer.

Became "a wandering dancer who pursues love without destiny, pursues beauty and freedom in the body of imprisonment and life."

To become a half-dead daughter, you must give up your "lover" - the half-dead daughter is only allowed to fall in love with the pale princess. In other words, all the believers, apostles, and followers of the Pale Princess are her lovers.

The price they paid to become the lover of the Pale Princess will be repaid three times by the Pale Princess.

The value of this "love" ~IndoMTL.com~ is enough to make people reach the sky in one step.

But Evelin refused this temptation.

She has not abandoned herself...it is precisely in order to keep that love that she wanders like a ghost in this place of eternal doom!

In order to rescue Evelin, Benjamin contacted Michelangelo, who was still the "Eye of Delay" back then.

He is the wizard who has studied the way of time most deeply in the world, and he is also the only known gold-level transcendent who uses "time" as an element.

After listening to Benjamin's story, Michelangelo suddenly had an idea.

Since Evelin can continuously superimpose her future self into this era through time paradox, in order to achieve the effect of "rejecting death"...

So can he achieve the effect of "double life" by manipulating the time paradox... to "die once and be resurrected twice"?

Dear, this chapter is finished, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
