The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 265: Child Kafni
Annan's first reaction was...fortunately, he found Vasily before.
The four sets of buffs that appeared on him were the powers that Annan had discussed with Vasily before and were sure to be blessed in nightmares.
Mr. Yao is the enemy of nightmares. As long as his power is used to fight nightmares, he can respond to almost any ritual.
In fact, the morning light that forcibly ends all nightmares at six o'clock every morning comes from the power of Mr. Yao. He will regularly remove nightmares for everyone every day, whether they are His followers or not.
Unless you are a priest of another god.
Then they might be at work... purifying nightmares. In order not to interfere with the purification work of the priests of other gods, only the nightmares of the priests will not be forcibly awakened at six o'clock in the morning.
Sir Silver and Grandma are the righteous gods that Annan is sure can lend him strength. As for the mysterious lady...as long as it is a complex and grand ceremony with all the details correct, He will be happy to do it.
The Mysterious Lady loves all those who master the ritual as a teacher loves his bright students.
Without these four buffs, the difficulty of this nightmare would have to increase...
In real history, both Annan and Dmitry, Elizabeth and Kafni all survived successfully. Even the old Merlin who followed Annan lived at least until a few months later... Except for the fact that the final trade agreement was still not reached, there was no war between the two countries again.
And Annan remembers it very clearly.
The exact time of Master Michelangelo’s death was November 30, 1498.
And now it is August 8, 1498.
In other words, this nightmare happened three months ago in the "Nightmare: White Tower" timeline. This shows that even the attendant beside Annan is not dead... because Merlin Manning died in the White Tower ceremony three months later.
That's a **** of a deal.
——In the original history, who solved this incident?
There’s no way it’s really nine-year-old Annan, right?
This shouldn’t be the case, because I’m just a child.jpg
Annan was thinking wildly as he was led by the maid through the side hall and into the palace garden. The "right index finger" of Heart of Winter's predecessor, Merlin Manning, was like a ghost, hanging silently behind Annan, always protecting his safety.
Under the protection of Old Merlin... Under the surveillance of this possibly the best Silver-level incapacitated wizard in the world, Annan didn't even know where he was "able to move freely".
Do I have to trick Merlin away first?
But that doesn’t work either.
Because Annan remembers it very clearly...
The wife of Prince Albert, she and her cousin Denton are both followers of Fufu. And her cousin is a powerful "dream stealer".
A gold-level soul-stealing wizard who can directly modify other people's memories, feelings, and preferences in their dreams!
He is now disguised as Silver and lurking next to Prince Albert.
If Annan leaves Merlin's sight, he might really be kidnapped suddenly...
Although Merlin is only at the Silver level, he is a "Hand of Winter". After the personal blessing of the Duke of Winter, his emotions and speech functions were sealed by the ritual... This may be another use of the "Heart of Winter" talent.
The Hand of Winter, whose emotions are sealed, can perfectly restrain the soul-stealing wizard. Even if the opponent is at the gold level, he would never dare to appear in front of Merlin casually.
Thinking of this, Annan noticed another thing:
At this period, Annan should not have reversed the heart of winter. In other words, he should be in a state of "not feeling positive emotions" now.
Annan needs to adjust his acting skills a little.
You have to look a little sad in front of acquaintances...at least you can't reveal your secrets.
Annan's side mission requirement is that "the identity must not be exposed."
But this is too vague... Annan is not very clear. It refers to "not being able to be discovered as a ritual that Annan destroyed" or "not being able to reveal that this is just someone's nightmare."
But in short, as long as you are cautious, you won’t make a big mistake...
What is more important is the "Great Hunting Ceremony".
Annan currently doesn't even know what this ritual is or where it is, let alone how to break it... This is the primary issue he needs to pay attention to.
And although the main mission is not mentioned.
But Annan knew in his heart that this task must be time-limited.
After all, Annan and Dmitri cannot stay here forever. They have to return to winter. It's just that Annan currently knows nothing about this ceremony, and he doesn't even know how much time is left...
Based on the nature of urine in previous nightmares, Annan guessed that this ritual was on the verge of being started.
——There is not much time left for Annan!
Wait until Annan was led by the maid and passed through the side hall.
He was shocked for a moment by the miracle in front of him——
It is a sea of extremely gorgeous white and purple flowers.
This flower is very strange - it looks like a rose, but its petals are almost transparent and pure white. But its branches and leaves are the color of violet... This pure ocean of white and purple is swaying in the wind, reflecting the bright brilliance of summer noon.
In the garden, there are cobblestone paths. The paths in the garden extend in all directions, leading to three pavilions of different sizes.
"This is it, Your Highness Annan. This is the garden blessed by Sir Silver, and your spirit will slowly get better here."
The maid coaxed softly: "Please go a little further...Iced juice has been prepared for you at the pavilion. If you need anything else, please tell me. I will prepare it for you."
Annan would have paid attention to the iced juice originally - when he saw something delicious and delicious, Annan's first reaction was to taste it first.
But his attention was sucked away by something else.
In the sea of flowers, I saw a girl wearing a black gauze dress made of the same material as Elizabeth, sitting quietly in the flower field. Her black curly hair hangs down to her shoulders, and her appearance is delicate and lovely.
The black high heels were taken off and placed neatly on the roadside, while she was stepping on the ground with her bare feet.
On her knees, she placed a small drawing board, holding a crayon in her hand, looking up at the sky, not knowing what she was thinking about.
Her red pupils shone like glass in the summer sun.
Like a lifeless doll.
...Is that Kaifni?
Annan quickly recognized this girl who was too close to him.
A thought suddenly came to his mind:
Did Annan and Kafni... become familiar with each other at this time?
The maid noticed that Annan's steps paused, and she also followed Annan's gaze.
She was suddenly surprised.
Why is Your Highness Kafni here?
"Who is she?"
Annan asked in a cold voice.
Noting that Annan was actually curious, old Merlin, who was following Annan, raised his head and silently looked at the maid.
His meaning is simple: speak up.
The maid's smile froze slightly, and then she explained to Annan with a gentle expression: "This is His Highness Kafni...the daughter of His Highness Albert."
"Can I play with her?"
Annan asked politely.
The maid gave an embarrassed smile: "Of course, Your Highness Annan. It's just that Your Highness Kafni... is a little quiet."
Out of politeness, she swallowed the word "isolated."
Annan gently broke away from the maid's hand - obviously because the maid allowed him to break away - and then walked towards Kafni who was sitting in the flower field, looking up at the sun.
“Looking directly at the sun is bad for your eyesight.”
Annan walked over and adjusted his tone a little.
Finally, with a straight face, he said something more like what a slightly more mature child would say: "It will hurt your eyes."
"No way."
Kafni's tone was erratic and dreamy, her voice was very light and soft: "Mr. Yao has a very good temper..."
At this moment, Annan noticed the drawing board in her hand.
That seemed to be the sea of silver-purple flowers in front of me.
But it is different from what Annan saw...
Kafni used a dark red crayon.
Like blood, like fire.
The color is like the setting sun——
...Could the clue be in Kafni's place?
Annan suddenly remembered that Kaifni seemed to have some kind of spiritual vision... able to see some traces of fate.
He asked softly: "Are you painting?"
At this time, Kafni turned her attention to Annan.
She was silent for a while and asked coldly: "Who are you?
"You have the colors of winter... but now it's summer. ~IndoMTL.com~ My heart is as ice."
Annan read seriously - this is the motto of the Winter family, and it is not surprising that he knows it.
He stretched out his hand to Kafni and said friendly: "My name is Anan Rendong. My last name means winter. What about you, what is your name?"
Kafni looked at Annan who looked calm with some suspicion.
She always suspected that after she put her hand up, Annan would suddenly pull it back and slap her happily...some of her brothers and sisters would play this boring game.
But she looked at Annan's outstretched hand, then at the smiling maid in front of the pavilion, and then at the frightening skinny old man staring at her from a distance, and vaguely realized something.
Not long after, she tentatively reached out her hand and gently placed the letter on Annan's palm with suspicion.
That was not the "warm palm" mentioned in the story, and Annan did not have a "warm smile" either. Her fingertips even touched a low temperature that was so cold that it made people shiver...
But for some reason, she felt vaguely at ease.
"Kafni."
She whispered: "Kafni Noah... Kafni means running your fingers through your hair.
"...can I call you Anna?"
"It's Annan."
Annan corrected Kaifuni's pronunciation and held her hand.
He said seriously: "Then we are friends, Kaifni."
