Chapter 152 The Dragon God's Attention to Deya
"I heard everything you just said."
After discussing some things with Amos, Deya was worriedly thinking about the pros and cons.
Suddenly, from the corner of the cave, Ignis's gentle voice was heard.
Deya looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Silver Dragon Lady sitting in a corner of the wall. She had her slender arms wrapped around her legs and her slightly raised face looked beautiful and gentle.
The translucent eyes seemed a little sad, and the beautiful girl Long bit her cherry lips gently.
"That Shizune barrier didn't work on you?"
Deya was stunned for a moment.
When he was talking to Amos just now, the other party had clearly used a silent barrier, but the dragon girl still heard it.
Ignis said in a very light voice: "Well, that barrier is useless to me... Amos wants to die."
Deya was silent for a moment, then he walked to Ignis's side and sat down.
The man and the dragon were very close, and Deya could even smell the faint mint-like fragrance of the silver dragon.
Not far away, Mavis pricked up her ears, and her emerald eyes glanced over here from time to time. She looked anxious, wanting to hear what Deya and Ignis were secretly talking about.
"He wants to die. Amos said he wants to be a middle school hero, but I can sense that he actually does it more for you."
Deya considered his tone and spoke.
The performance of the silver dragon Amos was too obvious, and his last words seemed to be an evasive comment.
"No, he didn't do it for me."
Ignis' tone grew sadder.
"Why do you say that?"
Deya frowned.
Although Ignis has a somewhat strange personality, she is always silent and has a low sense of presence.
But through Deya's understanding of her during this period of time, she found that this silver dragon was not an ungrateful dragon. She had the good qualities of a silver dragon.
"He did it for God and for his promise to the patriarch."
Ignis's voice was quiet, and she buried her face in her knees again.
Can you, little female dragon, explain yourself clearly? Why are you keeping me guessing?
Deya thought about it carefully and roughly understood what Ignis meant. He asked tentatively:
"You mean, because you are blessed by the Dragon God, you are special among the silver dragons, or even the giant dragons."
"Amos wants to save you even if he is not afraid of death. It's not because you are his sister, but because he wants to complete the mission of the Silver Dragon Clan leader and express his faith in God?"
Among the nine righteous gods, the other gods have no belief in dragons at all.
Because dragons are so powerful, the existence of gods is dispensable to them.
What dragons truly worship is their ancestors, and it just so happens that the Ancient Spirit is said to be the original dragon, and all dragons today are his descendants.
Therefore, the Ancient Spirit gained the devout faith of the dragons, not because he was a god, but because he was the ancestor of the dragons.
Of course, there are rebels among any race, and some dragons disdain the Old Spirits.
"Well, Amos is here to complete the mission, not for me."
Ignis' voice was soft.
"But whatever Amos's reasons were, he did it."
Deya spoke well of Amos.
Although this eight-ring silver dragon is powerful, it is gentle to others and has none of the arrogance of a giant dragon.
During this period, Deya got along well with him.
But is Ignis, the silver dragon, really so special?
She only has the strength of seven rings, but Amos has the strength of eight rings.
Rationally speaking, it is not worth it for an eight-ring dragon to risk his life just to save a seven-ring dragon.
Unless he does it for family affection.
“This is different…”
Ignis' tone was still sad. She hesitated for a moment and said, "...Just like me, my dependence on you is also the influence of God."
Deya's pupils shrank and his heart skipped a beat.
He hurriedly asked in a low voice: "Are you saying that you are close to me because of the ancient spirit?"
"Ah."
"Why would the Ancient Spirit do this?"
"sorry, I do not know."
Ignis shook her head blankly.
Many thoughts flashed through Deya's mind.
Why would the ancient spirit do this? What is the relationship and involvement between me and Him?
When did one of the nine righteous gods notice me? This world's memories are related to dragons. Are they also related to the Dragon God?
The biggest connection between him and me was the use of the Dragon Feast Crystal to give the Bone Dragon mythical power, and that mythical power came from the ancient spirit.
He wouldn't be so petty as to complain about himself just because of such a small matter, right?
But judging from Ignis's attitude towards her, the god didn't seem to have any ill intentions.
“This is wrong.”
Ignis added: "...My feelings come from God, not from myself. This is unfair to you."
Silver Dragon Lady looked at Deya with her translucent eyes. She tilted her head and said, "I want to try to rely on you with my own emotions... I'm trying."
Although this dragon is not good at speaking and doesn't like to talk, she seems to have rich inner emotions.
Deya thought about this, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
Silver Dragon Lady blinked her beautiful and pure eyes and suddenly said: "Deya..."
"Ok?"
"If you have the chance in the future, take me to visit human society."
Her voice was soft: "...I'm very interested."
"Ah."
Deya responded.
But he agreed very perfunctorily.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but this is ultimately just a memory of the world nine hundred years ago, and he will disappear once the mission is completed.
Deya is a man who keeps his promises, but in this world's memories, all his promises are pale and powerless.
Under the influence of external forces, he could not fulfill any of his promises.
Ignis showed a shy and pretty smile. She sat on the ground in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking about, and stopped talking.
"Teacher, teacher! I have learned a new trick!"
Raymond ran over excitedly and shouted boastfully.
Deya smiled and said, "Not bad, you have improved again."
The half-dragon boy chuckled twice, and was very happy to receive Deya's praise.
Deya sighed inwardly.
He didn't know what Raymond's final fate was in history, perhaps he died on this island.
He also didn't think that his teaching to Raymond could change him.
After all, Deya was just a fourth-ring necromancer, and what he taught Raymond were the basics of magic.
Deya couldn't do what Teacher Irwin did and give Raymond a permanent eight-ring spell so that he could protect himself.
As a teacher, Deya felt that he was unqualified and that he could not protect his students. But Raymond did not care.
For him, he was already very grateful that Deya was willing to teach him the mysterious magic and accept someone like him who had nothing as a disciple.
My mother once said that knowledge is the most precious wealth in the world.
In Raymond's heart, the teacher is the most important person to him besides his mother.
Mavis came over at this time and asked, "What were you talking about with the silver dragon just now?"
"I was just chatting with him about how we should deal with the dragon lich next."
"I'm not talking about Amos."
"Then who are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about Ignis!"
Deya glanced at Mavis with a half-smile: "Why are you concerned about Ignis and me?"
"Now in the world's memory, this concerns my safety, how can I not care?"
Mavis said with a cold face.
Deya shrugged and said, "What Ignis and I talked about was not the issue of the dracolich. It was a personal matter between the two of us. Don't ask about it."
Mavis bit her lip lightly and snorted, "Forget it. Since you don't want to talk about it, I'm too lazy to ask. So how is the plan you talked about with Amos going? You don't want to talk about this either, do you?"
This time, Deya said seriously, "Of course not. I need your help in this matter. I will tell you the plan that Amos and I discussed later. If you want to escape from this island and complete the mission, I need your cooperation."
The elf girl's tense expression relaxed, and she said softly, "Okay, I will cooperate with you. But let me make it clear first, if it means I will definitely die, I will never do it."
Deya smiled and said, "In the contract I signed with the other you, there is a requirement that you will never go to die. After all, if you die, the part of you that is a witch will also die."
"Your significant other might cheat you, but she will never want to kill you."
Mavis pouted and said unhappily, "You also know that she likes to cheat me. I was cheated by her when I signed this contract with you."
After a pause, her voice became softer: "...You should also be careful. We entered this world together to reminisce, and we must leave together."
"I don't know who brought us into this world's memories. I'm going to go out and blow his head off!"
Mavis was furious. This elf girl was different from her fairy-like beauty. She actually had a very bad temper.
"I have roughly guessed who made us fall into this world's memories. After we get out, you and I will go and blow their heads off."
Deya laughed.
In this world recollection, Deya did not see any participants except Mavis and himself.
This meant that he and Mavis were not forced into this forbidden remembrance because of bad luck.
Instead, someone deliberately made them fall into memories and wanted to kill them.
Mavis had no enemies in Susetsatani, so there was no need to think that this incident was directed at her.
Deya could guess with his butt that the person who did this must be related to the king's faction.
Deyan immediately talked to Mavis about the next plan, discussing more detailed details and backup plans.
……
a.
"hold head high----"
The dull and terrifying roar of a dragon sounded in the sky above the island.
Deya and his companions walked out of the cave and looked into the distance. A red dragon was flying across the sky.
"The red dragon has returned."
Seeing the red dragon, Deya spoke.
When he first entered the World Recollection, Raymond told him that there was a red dragon under the dragon lich on the island.
However, during this period of time, Deya and others did not see the red dragon, and guessed that the red dragon should have temporarily left the island.
Now that the dragon lich is about to hold an important ceremony, its capable subordinate calls back the red dragon.
"Red dragon, the strength of the seventh ring... Ignis, when the time comes, I will leave the red dragon to you to deal with. Even if you can't kill it, you have to make sure it doesn't have any weapons."
Deya instructed the dragon lady standing beside him.
"Good~"
Lady Silver Dragon nodded her chin in acknowledgement.
Deya and others also have a plan for this red dragon.
Amos walked to Deya, put away his harp, and made all preparations. He lowered his head and said, "It would be best if we can successfully get rid of the dragon lich."
"If we can't solve it, I will do my best to hold it back, and you guys should leave this island immediately."
Deya replied: "I know without you telling me that I am not ready to fight the dragon lich to death."
Deya never thought of getting a high evaluation for this kind of taboo-level recollection, especially one that he was not familiar with, as it might cost him his life.
If he has the chance, he will try to get a high rating, but if something goes wrong, his first priority is to save his life.
"Then let's begin the action!"
Deya and Mavis have entered this period of remembrance for a month, and they are about to reach the end of the remembrance.
……
Raymond returned to town.
As a member of the town, his presence did not attract much attention.
"Raymond, where have you been for the past month? Why haven't I seen you?"
"I guess his mother died, and he was so sad that he ran away and hid."
"That woman is dead?"
"He's been dead for a month, didn't you know?"
"Why should I know? But it's good that she died. That woman was so sick, but she was still so fierce."
"Damn it! If she wasn't so ugly and sick, I would have killed her with that much ferocity!"
"Hahaha, you are just too hungry to choose what to eat."
"..."
The men didn't care and discussed Raymond's deceased mother maliciously in front of him.
Raymond felt angry, but he forced himself to hold it in, letting the men say nasty things as he walked silently through the street.
Returning to the dusty, dilapidated hut, Raymond carefully picked up the crow he had secretly hidden and said respectfully, "Teacher!"
Deya's voice came out of the crow's mouth: "Just as we thought, as the ceremony progressed, the town strengthened its defenses, whether it was patrolling dragons or elves that appeared here."
Raymond's mission is to sneak into the town with Deya transformed into a crow.
Only Raymond, a child who lived in the town and was familiar to people, would not be suspected.
"Raymond, you did a good job just now. You didn't lose your mind because of this. But if you keep forbearing, you will show your incompetence."
"Once the ceremony begins, the army of the undead will destroy it and kill everyone here. If you have blood in your veins, take advantage of the chaos to kill those who insulted your mother."
"Killing is also what I, as your teacher, want to teach you. You must learn to endure, but you must also learn to retaliate!"
Raymond listened to Deya's words carefully, the dragon tail behind him swung, without any hesitation in his heart.
Mother said that there are no good people in this town, and they just dared to insult her.
Therefore, I must do as the teacher asks. Whether it is for my mother or for the task assigned by the teacher, I must not escape!
