Whispering Verse

Fear, panic, depression, panic...

The body temperature dropped rapidly, the body couldn't stop shaking, the blood disappeared from the arms, and the soul seemed to be shaking.

Facing the door, which was only ten steps away, he and Miss Louisa both felt it. Something was watching them from the deep darkness behind them.

That is darkness, that is chaos, that is the deep ocean, that is...the evil god.

The two completely understood the current situation almost at the same time. The out-of-control ichthyosis had attracted an unknown evil god. He has not come, but He is watching here at this moment, thus causing the abnormal characteristics of the environment.

This matter is actually not dangerous. As long as they leave the range of being watched and gradually alienated, they will be safe.

The golden light marks on Shade's body suddenly erupted, and the line of sight from high dimensions slowly disappeared. The trembling Miss Louisa almost fell, but was supported by Shade again.

"Go quickly..."

Her green eyes reflected Shade, who seemed to be burning with golden flames. Shade nodded and helped her forward.

And after that terrifying gaze left, the door in front of him actually closed little by little.

"Feel sorry."

After apologizing softly, Shade directly picked up Miss Louisa, but even so, the door seemed to be closed before they arrived.

"Xia De, put me down, yourself..."

A small figure appeared in front of the door, and the thin fifth murloc, which had never appeared, approached the door, allowing Shade and Miss Louisa to arrive at the door in time. They all saw the figure. She still had fragments of the clothes she wore last night, and the only human features on her legs were still wearing the same pair of shoes.

Shade's hand held the door, and the afterglow of divinity drove away the power of whispers and blasphemous elements, preventing the door from closing.

"she is......"

Miss Louisa covered her mouth.

Shade held the door and watched the little fishman leave the door and squat on the edge of Shade's golden light. It looked at them, its rotten fish face expressionless.

It wanted to see them leave here, but it couldn't leave here. The high-dimensional gods are watching here just for it.

Shade and Miss Louisa both stood still. Then, Miss Louisa spoke first:

"We can't save her, let's go, Detective."

The blonde girl held Shade's hand, her eyes a little red. Shade continued to pull on the door frame and looked at the rotten fishman. He knew that there was nothing he could do about it, and escaping with Miss Louisa was already the limit.

Turning his eyes to look outside the door, there was moonlight outside the door. Shade, who was particularly sensitive to the [Silver Moon], knew that it was real moonlight, and there was a safe place outside the door:

"But...I really want to save her."

"There's nothing we can do... We can't change this. Detective, this is not a fairy tale, and not everything will have a happy ending. We tried our best."

The blonde sounded slightly sad.

"Reality is not a fairy tale..."

He understood this, so he didn't say stupid things about saving the girl's family.

At this moment, looking at the moonlight outside the door, he thought of a lot, from his hometown to here, from the present time to the past time.

He thought of the joy and sadness he felt when he first read fairy tales in his hometown and in his childhood. He thought about the melancholy that adults feel when telling that story to three children in this world.

From a foreign country to here, from now to the past. Standing on the ground beneath his feet, feeling the four elements flowing through his souls, thinking about the current situation, and feeling it for himself, Shade felt that for the first time, he truly understood what that sad story had brought to him. feelings.

It was a feeling that touched the heart.

"This consciousness can affect the real world. Maybe I am not powerless. Although I am weak, I can make some attempts."

He put his hand into Miss Louisa's pocket, and took out the rolled parchment under the surprised look in her eyes.

With the hesitation and touch in his heart, as well as the idea of ​​"wanting to save", the paper actually burned in his hands. The pages, which record ancient fairy tales and possess mysterious powers, return the power of enlightenment to him.

He once gave the answer to the question of the old gods. At this moment, he gave the answer again:

"I want to save her."

Suddenly, he saw a young man wearing a clown hat smiling at him, and Shade understood what he was going to do.

Turning around, he looked at the darkness with firm eyes, feeling the power emerging from deep inside his heart. Enlightenment represents civilization. He comes from another civilization, brings the story here, and understands the story again.

In addition, the power of "fire" has been accumulated in the translated books——

Steam mist gushes out, whistles and bells sound.

The brassy aura of enlightenment flickered on the life ring like never before. In this light, the letters of Delarian Common Language flew out in pieces, surrounding Shade, constructing the story that Shade had never written in this world.

Miss Louisa's eyes widened. Those brassy lights illuminated her face, and large letters were reflected in her eyes. She recognized it, it was "The Little Match Girl".

Facing the darkness behind you, let the life ring appear behind you, listen to the whispers in your ears, and be surrounded by the stories of your hometown. Stories belonging to another world have finally become part of this civilization.

The power he possesses is not powerful, but pure enough, because it only belongs to Shade.

The voice in my ears sounded just right at this moment:

[On a snowy winter night, a lonely girl lit four candles. Fire, food, gifts, family affection. She left in the darkness, and briefly touched the light. And you, longing for the miracle that saves everything. 】

[You listened to the fairy tales you told, and you learned the enlightenment of civilization. 】

Golden light traces illuminated the surroundings, and the life ring behind him rotated at an unprecedented speed. As the steam surged, the letters suspended in the air gathered towards the life ring again. The brass-colored enlightenment light shone, and all the words overlapped in one place on the life ring, condensing into a brand new power.

[Outlander, you have engraved the brass enlightenment rune - the little match girl. 】

On the scorching life ring wrapped in steam, a second ancient spiritual rune quietly emerged. The flickering brass-colored spiritual light almost suppressed the [Gluttony] coming from the power of the evil god on the side.

Miss Louisa was dumbfounded as she looked at what was happening in front of her, suspecting that everything since tonight was a dream:

"Even if you did more extreme things at Lakeview Manor, this time it's too..."

Light appeared from above and illuminated his eyes. The blonde girl looked up at the sky, above her head was the boundless sea of ​​stars. The ceiling disappeared and they stood outside. A huge silver moon appeared in the night sky that seemed to be about to fall to the ground. Cold snowflakes fell on her face, and the fluttering snow fell.

She stretched out her hand in disbelief:

"Snowing?"
