Chapter 783: Ten Years, Go Home
Knock knock!
In the empty hallway, the knock on the door was heard far away, and after a long pause, a gentle voice came from the door.
"Come in."
Carefully closing the door, the girl bowed.
"Miss Chloe, there is your letter, and the traces on the seal should be from the palace."
The room was not large, and the furnishings inside were even a little old, and in the window position, Chloe, dressed in a tight witcher outfit, was looking out the window with her arms crossed.
The lake in the distance is sparkling, and the rising sun leaves a warm imprint on it.
"Put it there, I'll see later."
The messenger hesitated, but nodded and stepped back cautiously.
"Emily isn't around, there's not even a person to talk to." It took a long moment for Chloe to let out a long breath, come to her senses, and tear open the envelope on the table.
Her brow furrowed slightly, and her majesty was revealed, and then Chloe smiled and shook the letter in her hand.
"It's ridiculously stubborn, times have changed, Philip, the decline of the dynasty is inevitable, you want our help but you can't even settle the affairs within the nobility."
"What's more, you still don't understand that Olivia is on the same side as us."
After saying that, a fire flashed in his hand, and the letter paper turned into ashes and fell into the brazier.
After all this, Chloe got up and left the room.
There was silence in the corridors, and not even the guards on duty and the maids who served them could not be seen.
"Ten years ago, it was jubilant."
"It's not long since I've been gone, why does it feel like I've lived my whole life."
There is a bell in the city in the distance, it is a newly built bell in the royal city, it is obviously early in the morning, but the bell at this time is listening to the ears, but it always gives people a feeling that the glory of the west mountain is about to pass.
Walking out of the castle, Chloe came to the lake.
The scenery is still the same, but things are not people.
Just as she was thinking about it, she heard a burst of footsteps behind her, her thoughts were interrupted, and Chloe's face was slightly gloomy.
"Didn't I command, no one can approach without my orders!"
This is the rare time she has been angry in recent years.
The footsteps stopped, and then a voice carved into the bone marrow sounded in my ears.
"It seems that I came at the wrong time, and some people are not very welcome." Roger said with a smile.
The figure trembled wildly, and a complicated expression appeared on Chloe's face, but she still didn't look back, just replied in an uncertain tone, "Emily, put away your little tricks, have you forgotten the lesson from last time?" ”
After a long time of no response, Chloe's mood gradually stabilized, and then she took a deep breath and jerked her head back.
The grass was still green, but the sight was empty.
A great sense of loss struck her, but the next moment, a broad palm pressed against her shoulder.
"Long time no see, Chloe."
With a familiar tone and a familiar breath, Chloe could no longer restrain the emotions in her heart, and turned to hold the man in front of her in her arms.
"It's been ten years, and I didn't even think you would be seen again in your life."
"I didn't expect it to take so long." Roger smiled wryly and shook his head.
After leaving the ancestral land of the Silver Dragon Clan, he went through several twists and turns, and then entered the world where Ilde and the others were.
With his strong support, the branch base there was quickly established and hit the minimum of teleportation.
After hesitating, Roger chose to return here, just as he had envisioned, teleportation through the branch base, failing to attract anyone's attention.
But as soon as he arrived, he immediately noticed a difference.
Because of the rupture of the soul realm, the transcendent upper limit of the entire world was drastically lowered, and the energy level of the world was lowered again.
This state of chaos makes the passage of time here very chaotic.
This in and out is ten years.
Truth be told, Roger was a little scared if he returned to Kelmo, and it was rare for him to find an empty city......
As he was thinking, a scent of fragrance filled his nose, and a warm kiss interrupted his thoughts.
"You can't be separated from me for a moment until you leave!"
"I promise." Roger smiled.
To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that he was in an area shrouded in a branch base, his arrival would have had a great impact on this low-energy world.
He is now worthy of the name and cannot go anywhere.
"Follow me!" Chloe said impatiently.
Roger saw the glint in her eyes, "Don't forget who you are, don't forget it's still daytime." He smiled and pointed to the rising sun in the sky.
"What does that matter?"
"We can ...... all the time Until dark. ”
Chloe said unceremoniously.
"That's really not a good proposition." Roger shrugged helplessly.
Anyway, I'm already a fifth-order transcendent, why haven't I detached myself from the most ordinary social activities?
After a long, long time......
"Olivia has successfully integrated the entire Federation, the conflict between the two camps is intensifying, and without those high-ranking guys secretly stirring up, everything is going more smoothly than expected."
Chloe leaned on Roger's shoulder, slowly explaining the changes that had changed over the past ten years.
"Oakes has become the king of the underworld, and has even spread its power to the other side of the coast, which is bigger and more exciting than we imagined."
"What about you, haven't you ever left here?" Roger asked.
Because of the shattering of the soul realm, the power of the entire world has changed dramatically, and under the leadership of Chloe, the Demon Hunter Organization has risen to the occasion.
In addition, the energy impact and mutation caused by the soul realm fragments also provided soil for the birth of monsters in this world.
Therefore, under the premise of the confrontation between the two camps, they are also facing the advent of the extraordinary.
Background of the opportunities of the times.
Today's organizations are no longer what they used to be.
"I was away for a while at first, but I've been living here since Emily grew up." Chloe looked gloomy.
"I used to dream of the prosperity of my family every day, but now I have a huge power, but this world has lost the soil for the continued existence of nobles."
"The so-called aristocratic glory is meaningless, and I don't know whether my wish has been fulfilled or failed."
Because of Roger's gift before leaving, Chloe's strength grew extremely fast, and if there were no other accidents, in this world, no one would be Chloe's opponent.
This is also the biggest reason why he was able to control Oakes and influence Olivia.
"When are you leaving?" Chloe said suddenly.
"Why do you ask?" Roger looked surprised.
"Promise me one condition, leave me something before leaving, at least it will make the rest of my life less boring."
Roger was stunned, and some strange knowledge flashed through his mind.
According to the development of the world process, even in the context of the advent of the extraordinary, it does not seem to affect the germination of science and technology.
Leave something interesting?
What could be more fun than the internet?
But if you want to popularize that kind of thing...... You can't do it in one or two hundred years, right?
This doesn't work, we have to think of other methods.
Roger was thinking about it, but suddenly felt a sinking in his body.
"Don't fool around, I'm thinking about your question."
"You don't have to bother, I've already thought about it."
Chloe leaned into Roger's ear and spat out a word.
"Kid?!"
Roger's eyes widened, then he shook his head, "It's not that I don't want to give, it's that my body structure is completely different from ordinary people." ”
"There are some things that you can't ask for if you want them, but you can give them if you want to." He was also a little helpless about this.
"That's your business!" Chloe bit her lip.
"You can figure it out yourself, hum, if there is no ......" A hint of threat flashed in his eyes, and Roger instantly understood that the days before he officially left would probably be extremely tiring.
Three days later, Roger got rid of Chloe's entanglement, not because he was too tired or because Chloe was tired, but Olivia and Oakes, who got the news, returned to the manor as soon as possible.
"Great host!"
Oakes fell to his knees, looking at Roger with a look of madness.
Olivia, though a little reserved, also had reverence in her eyes.
She knows that all her current achievements are inseparable from the influence of the man in front of her.
It was he who broke the shackles of the world and brought this place to life.
Now that Olivia's purpose is no longer limited to the area in front of her, Philip's kingdom is no match for him, and she has set her sights on the other side of the sea, looking at the whole world.
Even deep down, she had a bigger purpose.
Other Soul Realms.
Because of the departure of Heinris and the death of the vast majority of immortals, the entire region is in a state of disorder, and this is naturally the best time to make a move.
Roger also expressed his support for this, and he even left a way to contact Kenneth.
The others didn't know about Heinris's departure, but Roger knew a lot about it, and with Kenneth's help, he could have been able to bring the area under the Dragon's Court for a small fee.
This can not only expand Roger's range of activities, but also enhance his strength in disguise.
At the end of dinner, Chloe made a rare surprise not to continue pestering Roger.
"I can finally get a good night's rest." Roger couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Although the delicacies of the mountains and seas are good, I have eaten too much...... Will also hold up.
But just when he thought he was about to spend the most peaceful night since returning here, a familiar scene appeared when he opened the door.
Unlike that appearance, this time Emily was also wearing a light veil, but her face was full of anticipation and joy.
Thinking of Chloe's strange look when she left, Roger couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
"Maybe this is the normal life of a demon hunter?"
"I was still too conservative before?"
Emily smiled and approached Roger, "That's what Miss Chloe meant. ”
The same words, as if it were yesterday.
She wrapped her arms around Roger's neck, her red lips pressed to Roger's ear.
"Mine too."
Ay......
Roger sighed softly.
Men, maybe they should work a little harder.
Many days and nights were silent.
It wasn't until the moment before leaving that Roger struggled out of the maelstrom.
"That's a 10-year supplement." He couldn't help but sigh that before his body disappeared, Chloe left behind him a meaningful sentence.
"Rest well and see you next time."
It wasn't Chloe who made Roger stumble, it was something he realized at this time.
There weren't two waiting for him in Kellmohan.
But it's still a long time, so I should be able to pay it off.
Should......
…………
The night is full of stars.
Roger's figure appeared silently, it was late at night, the whole castle was silent, and his arrival did not attract anyone's attention.
Standing at the top of the castle, looking at this place that is closest to home in the practical sense, for a moment, Roger felt a trace of loneliness in his heart.
He was suddenly curious, the world on the verge of collapse, the world that had been virtualized as a game in his memory.
What the hell is it like now.
Maybe that's his real home?
Obviously, his mind was full of thoughts of going home before, but when he really set foot on this land, he felt a little afraid.
So he didn't go to anyone, just sat at the top of the castle and looked up.
That's it, stay here, don't think about the collapsed world, the so-called responsibility is only imposed on yourself.
For there, he has no memories of anything.
And here are his friends and lovers.
Smack.
With a soft sound, the soft fur slid across the neck, reflecting the snow-white figure in the moonlight.
"Master, you're back!"
Uma's voice was not as frivolous as before, and there was a hint of gloom in the calm.
Based on the relationship between the two, if Roger appeared here, Uma must have been the first to spot him.
Surprisingly not teasing Roger, Uma bounced and landed in the open space not far in front of Roger.
Her body arched slightly, and in the blink of an eye, she transformed into her original form.
"It's been a hundred years, and I've finally waited for your return!"
"A hundred years?!" Roger's body shook wildly, and there was even a hint of horror in his eyes.
Infinite life is indeed attractive, but without companionship, Roger can hardly imagine such a situation.
"One hundred and twenty-seven years, to be exact."
Uma lowered her head, her voice choked, but Roger didn't notice that she was perfectly hiding the expression on her face by bowing her head.
"One hundred and twenty-seven years, everyone...... How are you all? ”
Roger almost subconsciously believed Uma's words.
"Some people are gone, some people are gone."
"There are people who have left us forever."
"There's so much going on in your absence."
Uma slowly stood up.
"You know what? I have been looking forward to your return every day, and I have waited and waited, day by day, year by year, countless days and nights......"
"I saw their departure, I saw the desolation here, and then I realized that time is the greatest enemy."
"No one will stay here forever, except me."
"Desolation?" Although it was night, it still did not affect Roger's vision, and although the whole of Kylemohan was not brightly lit in his vision, at least it was completely unrelated to the desolation.
"Master, I've been so lonely all these years, I miss you so ......much," Uma said, slowly approaching Roger and gesturing for a hug.
At this time, Roger finally noticed the cunning hidden in Uma's eyes, and he took half a step back and instantly figured out something.
"Uma, what the hell are you up to?"
"I'm cold, I'm so cold, my heart is empty, my heart has nowhere to put it!" She clutched her chest, her eyes glistening with water, and she looked pitiful.
But at this moment, another voice came from the darkness.
"Hey, Uma, halfway through the movie, what are you doing here?"
"Talking strangely, watching a play is too addictive?"
Hearing this voice, Roger couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
Yukiko is still chasing dramas, which proves that he shouldn't be away for too long.
At this time, Yukiko, who hurriedly climbed up, also saw the situation in the field clearly.
A scream pierced the night sky in the darkness.
"Roger!!"
Then the whole castle was awakened.
