Circles of ripples rippled on the surface of the lake, and the clear water of the lake could see the disturbed small fish scurrying around.

Anita, a cute porcelain girl, polluted the crystal clear water by stirring up mud at the bottom of the lake.

Sitting on the dock by the lake, Raymond held a water grass root in his mouth, looking at the peaceful lake in front of him, stunned.

Anita, a porcelain girl who quietly emerged from the bottom of the lake, was already crying in a hurry, with panic on her face. "My lord, I can't find it!"

"After more than three hundred years, they have naturally left a long time ago," Raymond, who spit out the water and grass roots in his mouth, beckoned to Anita. "Come back, there won't be any trace here......"

Huge tears fell from the eyes of the porcelain girl Anita, but she choked out her vocal cords before turning around and plunging to the bottom of the lake. "I'll try again, just once!"

"I've tried more than ten times, and I didn't say I wouldn't let you keep looking," Raymond, who was depressed by Anita's words, stood up and patted the hem of his mud-stained clothes, muttering quietly. "It's a big deal to look for a few more days, anyway, I'm not in a hurry......"

Anita, a porcelain girl who plunged into the bottom of the lake, soon disappeared, and Raymond, who was standing on the dock, couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

On the northern snowy mountains of the Cape of Despair, Raymond found a record of the fire ravens failing their attempts, and after carefully examining everything in the chamber, he concluded that the race had been completely wiped out.

Refining the bloodline of the devouring frog into its own fire raven, it became a mindless monster, its huge body made hunger rule its mind, and became a group of demonic beasts that searched for food everywhere.

The fusion of the bloodlines of more than a dozen creatures has made their strength increase rapidly. The talents of various creatures can be used by them, but the price that fire crows who have undergone this transformation need to pay is their lives.

There is a fusion bloodline similar to an infectious disease, so that the fire crow that has not received this bloodline fusion is attacked by its own kind, and the fire crow that will produce its own mutation in a short time after being attacked is like a carrier of the virus, and finally the entire fire crow group is infected, and all of them become hungry monsters.

In the Horn of Despair, these mutated fire crows who were restricted by inexplicable rules and could not be promoted to the second-level wizard level were bound to perish.

Because their food ration doomed the entire race to total annihilation. And Raymond's appearance only gave the creatures of the Horn of Despair a glimmer of life, and they were not eaten up by these mutated fire crows.

Raymond, who left the dock with his hands behind his back, followed the route he had taken for the first time and entered the porcelain village.

More than 300 years have passed, and everything in the empty village has become old and decayed under the washing of time. Three elemental tidal storms have befallen them, causing many houses in the village to lose their roofs. Even the courtyard walls have been destroyed.

When Raymond arrived at the circular square in the middle of the village. The four small buildings that have become mottled around the square make Raymond even more embarrassed.

Turning to look in the direction of the lake, it was still quiet, and it seemed that Anita would not give up searching the bottom of the lake for a short time.

After hesitating for a moment, Raymond finally walked into the small building where he had lived for a long time, but when he returned to the room where he had lived for a long time. The thick dust on the floor of the room made him lose interest in entering.

Raymond, who frowned, still felt a little lost in his heart as he walked towards the underground secret room. "To escape the witch Viara. Even I've been kept in the dark, so the saying that the older you get, the better you go. ”

Familiar pantry, familiar secret doors, more familiar stairs.

The two secret rooms in the underground have changed a little from the appearance of Raymond when he left.

In the traditional secret room in the porcelain village, there are many traces of excavation on the hard stone walls, and even some stone caves have been excavated in the corners, it seems that Reginord inherited the mantle of the witch of Viara, and he sent someone to search this place carefully in order to trace the whereabouts of the porcelain people.

Spreading his spiritual power, Raymond checked everything here again, but in the end he found nothing, the porcelain people walked very thoroughly, and did not leave anything or traces here

Raymond, who had doubts in his heart, couldn't help but ask questions. "Could it be that even Anita has been abandoned?"

But when Raymond left the small building and returned to the dock, Anita, who was still wearing crystal droplets, was sitting alone on the pier in a daze.

Walking slowly to the porcelain girl Anita's side, Raymond realized that between her split legs, there was a sealed container.

Raymond, who was sitting next to Anita, soon noticed that the porcelain girl Anita's eyes were red and there were tear stains on her cheeks.

Without Raymond opening his mouth to ask, her voice was a little choked, and Anita leaned her head on Raymond's shoulder, sobbing and opening her mouth. "The elders, the elders, they are all gone, and they are all gone, and this ...... is left."

The sealed container sent by Anita still had a small amount of silt from the bottom of the lake on the surface, and after opening it, Raymond smelled a familiar smell.

"Bitter water?"

"I searched the bottom of the lake, and finally found this in the place where the elder was hiding, which should be left for your ......."

Raymond, who casually stuffed the container full of bitter water into the storage ring, stretched out his arm and hugged the porcelain girl Anita in his arms and comforted him. "Don't worry, it seems that the elders have been here since then, and they should be safe. ”

Anita, whose body shook and sobbed, quickly turned into a howl, and her tears also wet Raymond's chest, making Raymond feel her sorrow.

Accompanied Anita until the sun set and the bright moon rose, the porcelain girl in her arms, Anita gradually stopped sobbing and raised her head. "My lord, am I never going to see my people again?"

"If you want to stay, you can become the ruler of the Horn of Despair, and it won't be difficult to find them," Raymond paused, brushing the tears from Anita's face and looking at her calmly. "And if you stay here, every porcelain figure will survive very well, and there will be no need to run around anymore, because no one can be promoted to the level of a second-level wizard......"

Before he could finish speaking, Anita's soft little hand gagged Raymond's mouth. "I am your disciple, unless you ask me to stay, I will always follow you!"

"Lazy and sleepy, pigs are countless times more diligent than you," Raymond, who straightened his face, raised his fingers and began to count. "And when you fly, you make a buzzing sound like a fly, do you think it's an honor for such a disciple to follow you?"

Hearing this, her eyes widened, and the porcelain girl Anita's face turned from white to red, and then from red to white, and after a moment, a smile flashed in her sad and beautiful eyes.

"Although I don't know who set the promotion rules for the Horn of Despair, your strength will be an advantage here," Turning his head to face Raymond on the calm lake, he began to mutter, word by word. "And there is one less lazy disciple by my side, it should also be a relief!"

Anita, the porcelain girl who was carefully observing Raymond's expression, narrowed her eyes into a line when she heard this, but her arms hugged Raymond tighter, and she also put her head on Raymond's chest and murmured. "Okay, okay, I won't leave you, the elder explained before entering the bottom of the lake, since I have become your disciple, then I can only listen to you, and I can't put my clan first......"

The dream-like murmur moved Raymond a little, but a moment later a subtle cry appeared from his arms.

After lowering his head and approaching the porcelain girl Anita, Raymond realized that she had really fallen asleep.

There is comfort and comfort on the delicate face, but the hands that hold Raymond's arms can't be pulled away at all!

Gently stroking her full hair, Raymond couldn't help but smile bitterly...... (To be continued......)
