Chapter 2705 Cutting off time and space
The witch thought that after asking this question, she would be met with a long hesitation or a change of topic, but she did not expect that the answer came quickly and decisively:
"No, he didn't tell me."
The red-haired girl immediately shook her head. This was a tacit understanding between the two of them, or she was waiting to see when Shade would be willing to take the initiative to say it, or passively let it slip.
"No"
The witch frowned again, and Daniste didn’t want her to know the secret so easily, but she also didn’t want to lie because of it, so she reminded:
"He just didn't say whether he was, but I also feel that he is suspected of it."
"Right, right? Look at the moonlight he uses, and the more exaggerated power he displays every time."
The lady with ash-brown hair nodded and looked out the window at the city scenery in the snow:
"I feel like I'm still close to figuring out all his secrets. Danist, you have to help me. He is your student. Don't you want to know everything about him?"
The eighteen-year-old red-haired girl tried her best to hold back her laughter. She began to appreciate her current youthful vitality.
Shad on the other side can also guess that there must be speculation and discussion about his identity in the hotel, but that is a matter for later. He is currently running in the forest with the help of thaumaturgy [Forest Path].
The reason why he didn't just throw the glass slipper home and then go to the elf girl's cabin from home is of course because he now carries a soul. He might be able to bring the soul back home through thaumaturgy, but Shade was unwilling to let the soul, stained with so much paradox, leave Vesta Glades.
Snowflakes are still flying over the entire Vista Woodland, and Shade doesn't know what the consequences will be. And when he arrived near the elf's tree house, he found that Iluna was still here.
The group of blue and yellow chocobos were moving under the big tree in the Elf Tree House, and Iluna was trying to have a conversation with the smaller individuals in the group.
"Emilia, can I really not take one and raise it in the apartment? I swear I will send it back when it grows up."
"Of course not, this child can't leave the species yet, and isn't your apartment prohibited from keeping pets? Also, who is Emilia!"
The elf girl said angrily from the side. Iluna completely ignored her denial and stroked the petite and cute yellow chocobo with great regret. The latter also enjoyed her touch.
Then she noticed Sha De's arrival, stood up and said to Sha De with a smile:
"I have already told Luvia and the others that you are fine. Luvia asked me to wait for you here and then go back to have dinner together."
In fact, there are reasons why she wants to see these magical little creatures again. Iluna was originally worried about Emilia because she had to live alone in the forest, but now she knows that her friend is actually doing quite well. , there is no need to worry about even taking exams and classes for the time being.
"Okay, but I still need to deal with some things before I go back. Iluna, you happen to be here, so let's help together. [Ocarina of Time] I have borrowed it, which connects the edge of life and death in 1787 Tree hole, let’s take care of it now.”
He now carries two swords. Fortunately, although they are both angel-level relics, [Night Watch] and [Ocarina of Time] do not conflict in characteristics, but carrying two angel-level relics at the same time is still quite heavy. A risky move.
The elf girl did not put the coffin in her tree house, but dug a hole under the tree and buried it on the spot, and called some tree people around to help take care of it——
"Yes, I didn't just move here. Of course I have come into contact with those hermits. They thought I was an elf and were kind enough to sell me a lot of things at a low price."
This wooden coffin remained unchanged from the last time Shade saw it in the morning. Since he planned to destroy it permanently, Shade had no intention of delaying it.
According to what the elf said, the Philosopher's Stone, the Sands of Time and the Long Sword were all ready. Shade asked the elf girl again:
"Look at the Philosopher's Stone in my hand, do I need to consume it all?"
The blond elf took the red stone and weighed it in his hand:
"This is too much, I only need one third."
So Shade summoned the [Staff of Yggdrasil] and held it in his right hand, and held one-third of the Philosopher's Stone in his left hand. The life ring slowly appeared on his back, and as the [Time and Space] spirit runes bloomed, the Philosopher's Stone in his left hand seemed to be slowly absorbed by his body.
Correspondingly, the black staff with its bottom touching the ground is blooming with dazzling emerald light:
"Thaumatology - the stability principle of ancient elves!"
The long staff was heavily pierced into the soil on the ground by him, and then green light erupted from the top of the long staff. The green light extended upwards and formed the phantom of a thick tree trunk together with the long staff itself, and then extended in all directions in the air. It formed an emerald green phantom canopy covering the three people and the coffin.
Green light spots continued to fall from the tree canopy. The nearby chocobos ran around excitedly trying to catch the light spots. Even Iluna stretched out her hand:
"The ultimate spellcasting of the Philosopher's Stone is indeed different from ordinary spellcasting. Is this the power to stabilize time?"
Emilia nodded firmly:
"This is the oldest elven secret technique, as old as Shade's Moonfire. You won't get the spiritual rune again, will you?"
"Of course not, but just now I was worried that you would be driven back because of this thaumaturgy."
"Why should I be driven back?"
While the two were noisy, they drove the chocobos that were surrounding them away from here. After Shade let go of the [Staff of Yectrasil], he poured the gray-white Sands of Time into his palm.
To be precise, [Sands of Time] is just a relic derivative, but it is regarded as a Keeper-level relic based on its characteristics. This special sand dust that directly affects the flow of time within a range after being thrown did not trigger the characteristics in Shade's hands. When Shade ignited the flame with the power of the first fire, the sand dust began to slowly melt and crystallize. phenomenon.
The elf girl hurriedly picked up the [Ocarina of Time], and after confirming that the group of chocobos were looking behind the tree and not walking over, Iluna also stood next to the coffin to prevent them from appearing. Accident.
After a full five minutes, the [Sands of Time] were completely melted into molten crystals that emitted blazing light.
"Can this kind of relic be destroyed?"
Eluna asked curiously, Emilia shook her head hurriedly:
"That's why special flames are needed. The First Fire is a very powerful thing. It can even burn the World Tree. What do you think of me like this? This is what the book at home says, but the World Tree is not burned by the First Fire. Yes, I just said yes, and it must be the first fire of the body."
Xia De feels that if these crystals are cooled, the relic may undergo different changes, but now is not the time for experiments. After asking Emilia about her next request, he inserted the time key into the coffin with his free hand——
"May the World Tree protect me in infinite time!"
But he just chanted the incantation without turning the key. As his voice fell, the eight-ring life ring appeared behind the elf girl beside him. The dark golden light immediately attracted Iluna's attention. What she noticed was the color, while Shade noticed the content of the spiritual runes.
The core spiritual runes of forest elves are three of the more common ones: enlightenment [immortality], enlightenment [innocence], and enlightenment [nature]. This is completely Emilia's core spiritual rune, and it is also proof of her elf bloodline and "high elf" identity.
Of course the elf girl noticed that the other two were looking at her life ring, but she pretended not to see it, and instead held the long sword and slashed it towards the key that was pierced into the coffin lid with a "Ah~" sound. .
There was a click, as if something was broken, but neither Shade's time key nor the coffin itself had any cracks.
Just the mist that dispersed in the narrow space of time suddenly emerged from the space around the coffin. Without the elf reminding him, Shade pulled out the key to time, and then poured the molten sand of time in his hand into the keyhole. .
The cracking sound lasted for a long time. At the same time, although the body could not feel the wind, and the drifting snow showed no trace of being blown by the strong wind, there were quite terrifying whistling wind sounds from all directions in the forest.
The chocobos that were peeking behind the trees quickly huddled together, with the large ones on the outside and the small ones in the middle. This is one of the reasons why they can still exist since the Fifth Era. .
But in fact nothing happened, it was just that the mist that had just dispersed re-entered the keyhole as if it was time going back.
The elf girl breathed a sigh of relief and handed the sword in her hand to Shade:
"Give it one last blow."
"Do I have to destroy the lid of the coffin? I'm worried that this will affect the small space inside the coffin."
"At least destroy the keyhole."
"Understood."
He held the hilt of the sword with both hands and stabbed downwards. The tip of the sword penetrated the keyhole. After the clearest click sound, all the abnormalities just disappeared.
[Ocarina of Time] pierced the lid of the coffin, and the sword and the wood of the coffin itself began to glow together. The emerald green light, which represents trees and vitality, echoes the [Stand of Yggdrasil] that is still glowing on the side.
These emerald green lights gradually made the ancient coffin look brand new, and even allowed the three of them to see clearly the entire sealing ritual left on it by the ancient thirteenth-level witch.
The green light finally condensed into an entity in front of Shade and turned into a green leaf that he caught. This was the first time that Shade obtained the [Eternal Youth Leaf] outside of the Time Key mission.
[Please note that this leaf can charge any "twisted tree hole": enhancing its stability; increasing the chance of safe use. 】
