Chapter 146. You're Free.
"Are you sure you want to do this?"
The unreliable goddess, Mitsuya, who had not appeared for a long time asked.
She was questioning Char's actions. The two of them had a simple conversation before, and Char asked her if she had experienced reverse demonization in the past.
After a moment of hesitation, Mitsuya gave a positive answer.
However, this was also to a certain extent.
For example, Saxson had already been slightly demonized, but Char had awakened him at the critical moment, allowing this Elven Mage to wake up. Although he looked like a monster, he only needed a little rest to return to normal.
As for Graviny, she had already been demonized too deeply, and it would be difficult to save her.
In Mitsuya's words, she was already standing on the edge of the cliff with one of her feet in the air.
That was why she asked Char that question.
"Don't worry. Since there's a possibility, I'll definitely be able to do it." Char laughed and stopped.
"So what if one foot was suspended in the air? The area behind the cliff was under his control."
As long as there was still a trace of desire in Graviny's heart, he would be able to pull her back. Even if she fell, he could have Zin'rokh blow her back.
He had this confidence.
The Dark Elves followed.
Char had just opened his mouth when he saw the other party raise his hand, and monsters surged out of the thick fog around him one after another, surrounding him in the center.
At a glance, the average level was over 30, and there were at least 50 of them. He could only die and leave. Other than that, there was no way he could escape.
"It's not that bad, right?" Char said.
"If you're just trying to draw me away and create an opportunity for them," said Graviny coldly.
"Ha, I don't think so."
Char laughed and looked very relaxed, as if he was not surrounded by monsters, but a group of spectators.
"What else do you remember?" He asked.
"I can guess that you have vague memories of the past. Yes, that's right, those things have happened before, but they were completely out of your control. But please believe me, this time is different from the past."
"Of course I remember."
The tattoo on Graviny's face seemed to start wriggling, covering more than half of her face, adding a bit of demonic aura.
She took a step forward, her eyes bloodshot.
"I remember you, I remember every word you said."
"Huh?"
Char's heart sank. He did not have any grudges with this boss, and he had only killed her over a hundred times.
How did this escalate the conflict?
"This is what you meant by 'can do it'? You're a fool!" Mitsuya mocked.
"Shut up!"
Graviny was still approaching, but Char could not retreat.
The distance between the two was getting closer and closer, until the other's perky chest was almost touching his body.
They were still separated.
"You've killed me many times, and you've been repeating the same thing every time. I can't say it's repeated, since you've been saying different things every time."
Char laughed.
To be honest, he did not really remember.
He could only remember some of the silly lines from the boss, and then he would finish the lines in front of them. It was funny to see the boss's confused face.
"You don't remember?"
The Elf extended her long nails and lifted his chin.
"You said I'm an idiot. B*stard, doing something stupid and pushing all the blame onto the injustice of fate. It's like this every time, never thinking that the root of the mistake is oneself. You will only make mistakes again and again, and there's no cure for it."
"Did I say something wrong?"
Char asked.
"Is there any meaning to right or wrong?"
Graviny's voice suddenly rose, and her hand clutched Char's neck.
"You think I have a choice?
"That voice is forcing me to move forward. It was like this in the past, and it is still the same now!
"I remember my past, but I don't remember struggling and suffering like I am now!
"I have no choice!
"Do you think I'm not envious of Upland?
"Although he died, he escaped! He had escaped the shackles of fate, he had escaped from that terrifying dream, he had escaped forever!
"But I can't do it!"
Graviny was getting more and more emotional, but Char was shocked.
He suddenly picked up the Gemstone Fireworks and the tip of his sword swept across the elf's arm. Although it only cut a layer of skin, the elf's arm was suddenly retracted.
The blood in her eyes became more intense, as if it was the red that seeped out of her snow-white skin!
"Very good. You really want to kill me. Just like in those memories."
"Graviny, let me ask you a question."
Char put away his sword, and her expression was more serious than ever.
"You're saying that there's a voice that keeps pushing you forward, right?"
The Elf's eyes became slightly clear.
"A meaningless question."
"No!"
"Since you remember all of this," Char said, "so when you woke up, you didn't choose to poison. It was the voice that told you to do so, right?"
There was a struggle in the Elf's eyes, and it was obvious that she was impatient.
"So what if I am?"
"You didn't have to come to Golden Butterfly City, but it was that voice that told you to come here, right?"
"These are all unintentional..."
"Answer me!"
Char took a step forward with an imposing manner, but Graviny was stunned and forced to take a step back.
"Yes."
After a pause, her eyes dimmed, but soon, they were filled with mockery.
"So what if I am? It's the will of the abyss, and there's no way to resist it. "
"F*cking will of the abyss! damn it!" Char cursed, "the abyss doesn't have such a will!"
Char's gaze swept past the Elves and landed on the Dark-robed Magic Puppet.
It shuddered and quickly shook its head.
As expected, it was not Zin'rokh.
It was IT!
Char had always thought that Graviny was determined to transform into a boss, but now it seemed that someone else had been trying to stop her.
"Listen, whether you're a b*tch or a slut, even if you lived as lowly as an ant in the past and as dirty as a maggot now, it's your own choice. You can't blame others.
"What's important is that you're alive. You're free to sacrifice your own life and live as you like.
"In front of me, no one can force you to change your mind. No one can force a twisted will on you!
"This is my promise to you."
The voice seemed to pierce through the fog, passing through layers of confusion, and reaching the bottom of Graviny's heart.
The Elf raised her head. The blood vessels in her eyes quickly receded, and her gaze became clear.
She looked at him in disbelief.
"From now on, don't bother about that voice."
Char went forward and placed a hand on her shoulder.
"You're free, that's enough."
Maybe Char played an important role in her memory.
Perhaps it was because no one had ever encouraged her like this.
His words seemed to have a special magic.
Graviny's nose suddenly twitched, and she felt the urge to cry.
"What did that voice ask you to do recently?" Char asked.
"IT wants me to get in touch with the heart of the nest."
"Very good," he said.
Char grinned.
"Let's go and destroy it."
"You're different from all the other Chosen Ones.
"Stop!" Mitsuya suddenly said.
"What do you mean?"
"They've also tried to restore the fallen to their former glory, but most of them did it in the name of justice."
"Ha, persuade them to turn over a new leaf and be human again?" Char smiled noncommittally.
Mitsuya could hear his mockery but did not care.
"Shouldn't it be like this? You're fighting against the abyss, and your positions are so opposite. There's no such thing as freedom or neutrality. This idea may seem noble to you, but in reality, it can't be more naive."
"This is a difference in our three views..."
Char laughed, his voice carrying a hint of fatigue.
"No one craves freedom more than I do. I don't care how everyone chooses. There is no lack of fools in this world. Besides, do you think I'm dreaming of becoming God's Chosen One?"
Graviny asked me that does she have a choice. I also want to ask her, do I have a choice?"
Mitsuya was speechless.
At the same time, on the other two battlefields.
Nelwin was covered in dust, like a silly dog that had just rolled back from a pile of dirt.
Her pair of full long legs were also covered in scratches and bruises, but her eyes were surprisingly bright.
She was hiding behind a low wall. This was the ruins of the manor, and most of the buildings were still intact. The Dark-robed Magic Puppet followed her in and hit walls everywhere. It lost its advantage of flying for a while, which caused the battle to be in a stalemate.
She was getting more and more fond of this kind of soul-stirring battle, and she was getting more and more into it.
Compared to this, what were the previous ones?
That was not a good gaming experience!
Come to think of it, if Char had been experiencing this kind of battle all day long, then it would make sense for him to be so powerful.
Suddenly, Nelwin heard a rustling sound. She thought that the monster had discovered her and was slowly approaching.
However, when she looked up, she saw that the sound came from the surrounding gravel.
On the ground, on the platform, and on the broken cabinet, the sand shook gently and fell.
Nelwin was shocked and almost instinctively jumped out of the window!
The moment she got out, the castle collapsed with a loud bang.
Sh*t!
She thought that the Monster was tired of hide-and-seek!
When she came back to her senses, she suddenly realized that the tremor seemed to come from the mist under her feet.
An earthquake?
A shadow suddenly flashed over his head. It was the Dark-robed Magic Puppet's huge body, but it did not care about him at all. Instead, it flew straight to the place where Saxson and the light cocoon were first discovered.
"You dare to ignore me!"
Nelwin quickly drew her bow and shot an arrow with a rope. She tied the arrow to the puppet's leg, and she grabbed the rope like Tarzan, rising into the air.
The ground was littered with monsters around Maica. From the wounds, they were all charred, cut, burnt, frostbitten, and so on. Dark purple blood flowed freely, soaking the soil and making the magic aura on it stronger.
The Mushroom Man did not seem to be having a good time. His face was dark. If it was not for the constant supply of mana around him to replenish his strength, and the mother nest hidden deep in the ground that seemed to have infinite energy and was constantly breeding monsters, he might have been torn to pieces by the other party's puppets.
Maica's heart is bitter.
He thought that after completely falling into the abyss, he could kill his enemies with his own hands, and at the very least, he would have a thigh to hug onto.
However, his superior was an idiot who was sneaked away by Char's words. That ferocious-looking monster was also a fool who could not even deal with a weak elf!
Trash!
They were all useless!
However, he could not lose his temper.
In comparison, Saxson seemed to be in a much better state.
Although the Elven Mage was in a sorry state and his robe was in tatters, they were not even stained with the blood of the magical creatures.
He was also amazed at how difficult his opponent was to deal with. He was very good at calculation and could always see the limit of his spells at a glance, open up an appropriate distance, let the monsters surround him, and then drive the monsters to fight with him. He also surrounded himself with a strong poison. Saxson tried to get close to him several times, but he could only return without success.
Suddenly, he heard a strange movement from the light cocoon behind him.
"Crack!"
There was a small crack on it.
At the same time, the ground began to tremble slightly!
Saxson was overjoyed. He sensed that his opponent was also paying attention to this side, and the monsters began to surround the light cocoon.
"They're getting anxious!"
With a thought, the Elf summoned four wounded puppets back to her side. There were a total of five units, and they surrounded the light cocoon, supporting a hemispherical elemental barrier with four colors flowing.
Cracking sounds could be heard from behind him as the monsters outside attacked madly. Their sharp teeth and claws were rubbing against the barrier with the corrosive magic energy. Saxson was struggling to hold on, and his face was red!
Suddenly, the ground stopped shaking, and the light cocoon behind him broke into pieces. Then, there was a burst of warm light that made people feel happy, as if they had gone through a cold wind and rain, taken off their clothes, and soaked in warm water, washing away all their fatigue.
However, because the enchantment had not completely receded, the light still felt a slight burning sensation to the Elf.
However, it did not matter!
Saxson was overjoyed. Just as he was about to turn around, he felt a sharp pain in his back!
He lowered his head in disbelief. A golden, shining, and scorching long sword was sticking out of his chest. The blood that was slightly stained with black impurities sizzled on it, and a sweet bloody smell filled the barrier.
Saxson muttered in a low voice and turned around with difficulty.
In front of him was a pair of emotionless, golden eyes.
"All demons deserve to die," The other party said coldly.
"I..."
Before he could finish, Saxson fell limply to the ground.
Ortlinde pulled out her long sword. The blade glowed, and in an instant, not even a trace of blood was left.
Without their master's control, the four-colored puppets instantly turned into the most primitive elements, wailing and dissipating. The barrier was also shattered by the monsters. They bared their fangs and brandished their claws as they pounced at Ortlinde. The pitch-black mana instantly wrapped around her and formed another layer of flesh cocoon.
However, that was all.
A dazzling golden light shot out from the gap, as if a sun was melting a dirty shell.
In just a second, all the demons evaporated, leaving only Ortlinde walking out of the light.
She glared at Maica in disgust, raised her blazing sword, and swung it down!
The Mushroom Man and curled up into a ball, holding his head. However, the sword was not aimed at him.
In the air, the Dark-robed Magic Puppet let out a painful wail as its huge body was cut in half by the sword light.
Nelwin floated over due to the inertia and landed on the ground excitedly.
However, she was stunned after a glance.
Saxson...
"He's dead?"
