wandering in the ashes of meman

Chapter 70: Chapter 70
Returned to the fireless sacrificial ground by returning the bone fragment.

Just when Ashes was about to ask the Fireproof Girl to help find the fourth episode of The Powerpuff Girls, Ashes' eyes were suddenly startled, and then he was suddenly attracted by another group of inexplicable beings...

These people are no strangers to Ashes, or even very familiar with them.Their names are pilgrims, and although they are also undead, they are not qualified to inherit flames.

Not just the pilgrims, after Ashes returned here, countless pale, amber, or scarlet eyes appeared in the dark corners of the sacrificial ground.Seeing these things, Ashes squinted his eyes, and then silently took out the Dragon Hunting Sword and Spear from his backpack, which was shining with golden lightning... Wandering Soul, the biggest enemy on the road of spreading fire, is also the biggest obstacles.

The high walls of Rokri, the settlement of the undead, the road of living sacrifices... the flames began to die, and wandering spirits could be seen everywhere.They are the enemies of the fire passers, and they will unconsciously attack all the figures they see.Countless kills, but every time you take a break, even if you just sit in front of the fire for a while.They will be resurrected again, and then continue to stand in place unconsciously, or patrol.Their flesh and blood, their torsos, their screams before dying, and their ashes are all very familiar...

Thinking about it, just when Ashes was wondering.There was a "da da" sound of high heels in the darkness on the side.Hearing this voice, Ashes also looked over.She didn't wear that cautious fighting spirit. Now Hela is wearing a dark green long skirt that outlines a perfect body curve. Her neatly groomed hair is scattered behind her. The slightly darker eye shadow and the pair of sharp eyes Hitomi makes her look like a proud queen.

"What's going on here?" Ashes looked at Hela in front of him with some doubts, and hearing Ashes' question, Hela on the side also shook his head.

"I'm not the owner of this place. Why did this place become like this? You should ask the fireproof girl."

Hearing Hela's words, he didn't notice that Hela mentioned that the fireproof woman was the smoke rising from her face.Ashes just nodded as a matter of course... After all, the sacrificial ground itself is the place where the fire prevention woman is.

Her sharp eyes looked at the wandering souls around. For some reason, Hela could feel the strong feeling of "dependence" or "attachment" on them for Ashes.It has nothing to do with love, this kind of attachment is more similar to a child's attachment to his mother... But unfortunately, Ashes seems unable to understand their attachment.After all, Ashes has no feeling since its birth, nor the concept of death.

The only thing that can be regarded as the mother of Ashes should be the original ancient tree, right?After all, ashes are born from the dust after the ancient trees burnt out.

When Ashes was still in doubt, at some point, the Fireproof Lady had come out slowly and quietly from behind Ashes.

Seeing the fire-proof girl, Ashes also asked suspiciously: "What's wrong here?"

Hearing Ashes' question, the fire prevention woman on the side nodded, and then said softly, "Don't worry, Lord Ashes...they are not your enemies."

"?"

Seeing the doubts on Ashes' face, the Fireproof Woman smiled lightly, and then said slowly:
"During the previous battle, you took off the helmet of the King's Armor. As a result, in the Age of Fire, the fragments of soul instilled in your body escaped... although this caused you to lose most of your power But similarly, these fragments of the soul are also mixed in the pus of human nature and have been fully released. They have entered the body of others and obtained a new body. In this age without fire, you are the last king... ...the Lord of the Wandering Souls who guides them, the Lord of Ashes..."

While speaking, accompanied by the soft voice of the fire prevention woman.From the surrounding shadow corners, those creatures of various shapes slowly crawled out of their bodies.

The limbs are slender, the body is full of pustules, and the thin and brutal hound shrugs and pulls its head.The swollen, naked, pale body surface was covered with a layer of slippery mucus, and the naked maggots crawled with difficulty.The soldiers who were no different from dead corpses held broken swords and wooden shields, and some armor fragments remained on their bodies... and the pilgrims who walked forward slowly, with devout eyes.

The moment they saw the ashes, their original bodies trembled.Throwing the palm supporting the body aside.Kneeling on the ground, the crawler kept his head down and kept kowtowing.Climbing in front of Ashes, he uttered an ancient saying in the age of fire to celebrate the birth of kings, then lowered his head and kissed Ashes' iron boots.

And hiding in a corner of the sacrificial field where there was no light, Brunhilde stood there silently watching everything in front of him.As an undead who was transformed in this era, the memory of the age of fire also appeared in her mind...but this memory did not swallow her.

Those big azure blue eyes were full of piety, but also carried a little bit of what he couldn't give up about his past.Clenching her fists, she could vaguely see the embers like molten iron on her body.Holding Gungnir in his hand and pursing his lips, Brunhilde finally sighed from a distance.He closed his eyes, as if he didn't see the scene in front of him.

A little light shines down on the dome of the sacrificial field, and the scattered dust makes the dilapidated inch of light look gray.

The ghosts groaned in various ways, and the ancient words of the age of fire came out of their mouths.As the origin of all languages ​​in this era, the Deep Sea Age, although she can't understand what they are saying, for some reason, Hela can easily understand what they mean... This is the case, but the only difference is that Ember's voice is not so jerky.

"What's happening here…?"

McCree and Banner, who just came back from the outside, looked at the scene in front of them incomprehensibly.Because they were not very familiar with the Fireproof Girl, they had no choice but to look at Hela beside him.And Hela gave them a cold look back... This made McRae and the others know that Hela was in a bad mood right now.

Glancing at McCree and the others who were full of doubts, the fire prevention woman smiled lightly and nodded calmly.Then, wearing a silver crown, the Fireproof Lady General looked at Ashes' face.

Then, under Hela's eyes that seemed to be killing people, she pressed her lips against Ashes' lips... But unfortunately, because of the helmet, the fireproof woman's lips only fell on Ashes's lips in the end. On the cold and blunt visor.

Some couldn't understand the behavior of the fire prevention girl, which aroused Ashes' doubts.

"what happened?"

Looking at the ashes in front of her, the fire prevention woman shook her head gently.

"It's nothing, Lord Ashes..."

Saying that, holding Ashes' hand, the Fireproof Girl showed a crooked smile to Hela beside her...
