What's on it?
That gray fog makes me uneasy. Even what I see now is enough to report to my sister. Should I go out and wake her up?
Emily was a little hesitant, but Alwin did not give her more time to react. When he was about to approach the mist above, his figure flashed like a ghost and he rushed in.
This!
At this point there was nothing she could do but follow. Emily gritted her teeth and rushed in with her head held high.
Visibility was low in the gray fog.
Can't see the direction clearly.
But fortunately, there was Elwin, the beautiful queen holding a candlestick with a large white candle on it. The flame was burning steadily, illuminating her figure and pointing Emily in the direction.
Because the fog was so strange - theoretically it was impossible to get lost with the stairs going up as a reference, but no matter which direction she turned, the stairs under her feet were always going up.
Thanks to the sight of people, she didn't get lost in the gray fog.
here……
This place seems a bit scary...
As they kept walking like this, Emily's heart began to beat fast.
So empty.
So lonely.
So vast.
So lonely.
If some monster really appeared, she would not be afraid, but just walking in the gray fog like this was like walking in a cycle to the end of her life. This dull and dead cycle made her feel uneasy.
How could Sister Queen have such a dream?
This doesn’t seem like a dream given to her by her ancestors... otherwise she shouldn’t be here.
But if it was her own dream, why did her clothes change so much?
In real life, she was wearing a nightgown, a dress I had never even seen in her closet.
Not to mention the candlestick...
The candle light is warm...
I always feel that as long as I am illuminated, nothing will happen.
After walking for a while, just when Emily felt she couldn't stand it anymore and wanted to wake up from the dream, the scene in front of her finally changed.
A gate appeared, estimated to be nearly 100 meters high.
The kind without door panels.
The walls and ceiling seemed to be built of huge stones and supported by huge stone pillars.
To be honest, the construction workmanship was a bit rough. From what Emily could see, there were cracks all over the walls and stone pillars. It was also from here that she realized that the ground beneath her feet began to become uneven, and she would always step on some fallen stones every few steps.
This forced her to step more carefully, which slowed her speed greatly, and she was thrown more than ten meters away by Alwin.
It was not a bad thing, because she quickly discovered that a man in a black cloak slowly walked out of the huge dark door frame - the darkness that was like the throat of a ferocious beast.
"You finally came."
The cloaked man spoke, a deep female voice.
The top edge of the hood reached down to her nose, and Emily could only see the tip of her white chin at this distance.
If it wasn't for the fact that this place was so empty and even the slightest voice could be heard from far away, I would not have been able to hear the noise coming from that location.
Fortunately, I didn't follow.
She was thankful and stopped to hide in the gray fog, using her small stature to conceal herself.
Theoretically, things in dreams cannot interfere with real things. But this place is too weird, and Emily is not willing to take risks for safety reasons.
Just pretend that the other party can see her and follow her without noticing.
The strange cloaked person, who seemed to know Alwyn, led her all the way into the "temple".
Emily didn't catch up until they disappeared in the darkness of the gate, using the huge stone pillars on both sides of the road as cover and following them all the way.
"The light of this candle is so weak."
The cloaked man walked side by side with Elwyn, and was now tilting his head to look at the candlestick in her hand.
"It means that your blood has become so thin that the light is almost invisible."
"If it was a few generations later, maybe this candle wouldn't be lit."
What does she mean?
Emily frowned.
Candle?
Isn't that a candle just a candle?
Why does it sound like she meant that the candle is the manifestation of the Queen's sister's bloodline?
I was really shocked...
Emily's eyes widened.
Maybe the Queen herself doesn’t know about this?
This cloaked person...who is she?
She risked walking a little faster, slipping into the shadows to the right of the two men, and carefully examined the queen's face.
Alvin still had that dull expression on his face, as if he hadn't heard anything at all.
But the candlelight was flickering.
The shadows of two people also began to dance enchantingly on the ground.
"This is the 'Brovyhaven - Temple of the Sacrificed'."
The cloaked man continued to talk on his own.
"Only the descendants of the Harwin family can enter with the key."
"You must be curious about who I am. There is no need for me to hide this from you."
"My name is Lika-Haven."
"My mother is one of the God Queens. Logically, our grandmother is the same person."
There was a pause, and the cloaked man seemed to be waiting for Alwyn to reply.
But Alwin still said nothing, only the candlelight flickered wildly.
"Almost forgot."
With a chuckle, the cloaked man flicked the candlelight, and a flame rubbed from his fingertips and fell into the queen's chest.
Her whole body seemed to be infused with a soul. Her expression and eyes instantly became lively. She took a few steps back tremblingly, her lips slightly open but unable to speak.
Alvin was indeed frightened.
No... didn't we agree that it was just a dream?
What was going on with this never-before-seen scene?
“Is this my dream?”
Holding the candlestick in her left hand, she looked down at her open right hand.
"Yes and no."
The cloaked man looked up.
“It depends on how you understand your mission.”
"My...mission?"
"The building material of the Temple of the Sacrificed is the souls of the Sacrificed."
The cloaked man turned away.
"Those things that look like stone are actually made of the blood and bones of all the mortals who died in the war."
What is this - so disgusting?
Emily was eavesdropping behind a pillar, and when she heard what was said, she quickly let go and jumped away, rubbing her hands hard on her clothes.
She meant no disrespect to the victims.
But blood and bones...
That sounds creepy.
"So," Alvin's eyes flickered, "what is the purpose of building this temple?"
The cloaked man nodded: "Seal the evil god."
"Seal... the evil god?"
Alvin's eyes widened as well.
Wait, this gray fog... could this be the "Gray Fog Temple" that Aisuen mentioned?
A place that can only be reached with the Book of Roar and the Eye of God?
That should be it...
There should be no such coincidence in the world that there are two such mysterious and similar places.
But why did the Gray Mist Temple appear in my dream?
Why do I have such a dream...?
“Because you need it.”
The cloaked man spoke bluntly.
"The Temple has sensed your will a long time ago. You want to dedicate yourself, you want to fight, you want to break free from the shackles of reality. All you lack is the key to your destiny."
"Key?" Alvin was stunned. "What key?"
"Hitzfell Manor, the Secret Keeper Family."
Now it was the cloaked man's turn to be confused.
"Didn't you come in here because you mastered this?"
"The Mother Goddess planned all this so that her descendants could get the key. Since you are standing here and talking to me, you should have obtained the eye as well."
what?
If the previous content only made Alwin and Emily who was listening "a little surprised", then what she said now made them "very surprised".
what……
It turns out that the Secret Keeper family prepared the keys specifically for the descendants of God?
But I didn't take away Aisuen's eyes...the eyes are still on her. According to Lika, I couldn't get in without the key, so why did I get in now?
Almost at the same time, Alwin and Emily thought of the "Dream Entering Plan" they had discussed.
So it's because of Emily?
Alvin's eyes trembled slightly.
Emily Hitzfeld.
If the key refers to "Hitzfeld, who inherited the Divine Eye", then Aisuen now has complete control over the power of the Divine Eye. Can her daughter be considered part of the key?
If Emily's spirit merges with mine...
It must be like this.
The Temple of the Sacrificial has therefore judged me qualified.
On the other side, Emily was shocked and angry after she realized what was going on.
What does "deserved that eye" mean?
