Paladin of Asgard

NEW

Feeling the long-lost youth, Nierti couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief and smiled, feeling deeply that continuing life was the right choice.

Just as she was feeling the joy of returning to her youth, a stooped figure came in from outside.

The slow movement of the figure "creaking" to push the door made a series of sounds from the wooden door.

Kalulu is also very old. He is leaning on a cane in his hand. His stooped and thin body trembles slightly while walking. His white hair is sparse and thick, and there are heavy bags under his dim eyes.

After entering the room, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Nilti carefully for a while, before saying in disbelief: "Nilti"

"It's me, Kalulu." Nierti's smile was a little stiff.

Kalulu was stunned for a moment, then became emotional, walked up to her with a few strides on crutches, and reprimanded in a trembling voice: "You have broken the laws of nature, you greedy woman, for the sake of your own life, you have betrayed me. The mages abide by the laws of thousands of years and use time magic arbitrarily, which will threaten the safety of the entire universe."

"I didn't use time magic to extend my life." Nierti argued, "I used the energy of the dark dimension."

"Dark Dimension" Kalulu is still emotional, "Communication with the dark dimension, isn't this a threat to the order of the universe? You let the evil existence of the dark world discover the earth, and the earth will be destroyed sooner or later."

Nierti: "Dormammu has discovered the earth and coveted it for a long time. That is the time of Agamotto. I just took advantage of Dormammu's existing greed."

"Stupid and arrogant" Kalulu obviously couldn't argue with Nilti, but he didn't show weakness, "People who get involved in darkness will not end well. If you do this, one day you will be lost and depraved."

Nierti sighed: "There is no good or evil in power, Kalulu."

"There are good and evil in power, of course," Kalulu said, and then turned around angrily, "I will not be as depraved and cowardly as you, meddling in the darkness, and continuing my life shamefully."

As he said that, he left the room without looking back, and slammed the door hard, trying to express his inner anger.

It's just that due to his old age and frailty, despite his best efforts, he could barely close the door without the expected knocking sound.

Nilty sighed and shook his head slightly

A few nights later.

"Ah!" Kalulu, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, seemed to be having a nightmare, and suddenly cried out in pain, and opened his eyes.

His body was shaking violently, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat in an instant, as if he was suffering from some kind of huge illness.

In fact, Kalulu is suffering from aging, the greatest ailment of mankind.

This aging body, half buried in the ground, has no vitality at all, like a rusty machine with parts falling off, wandering on the verge of collapse, and may stop functioning at any time.

As an outstanding magician, Kalulu has a keen perception, he can clearly feel various changes in his body.

At this moment, his whole body was lying on the bed with stiffness and pain, his breathing was difficult, and his strength was weak. In his perception, his flesh and blood were struggling on the edge of the quagmire of death.

Old age

Kalulu clearly knew what kind of situation his body was heading towards.

So for a moment, the fear of death hit him like a tide, making him tremble more and more violently.

Am I going to die of old age? Standing on the verge of death, Kalulu finally understands how painful death is.

But fortunately, Death did not choose to take him away tonight.

After a while, Kalulu's breathing stabilized, and the excruciating pain of aging was also much relieved, allowing him to get up from the bed, drink a cup of tea, and calm down.

Holding the teacup in his hand, there was still a little cold sweat on Kalulu's forehead.

For a moment just now, he even felt that Death had put his hand on his shoulder, asking for his name and last words with great interest.

too terrifying

Kalulu shook his head, trying to make himself forget about the experience just now.

But then, the figure of Nierti appeared in his mind, the figure that returned to youth, with light steps and a smiling face.

He can't help but start to recall and imagine what things young people can do

A young man can run and jump with a strong body, tear food with strong teeth, and ooze all kinds of wonderful body fluids with plump skin

In contrast, the old man's body is like a pile of rotten wood, shriveled, fragile, and tasteless.

In this kind of thinking, Kalulu quickly thought: Maybe he should also extend his life, just like Nilti

He was very hesitant, and the main reason for his hesitation was the bold words he repeatedly uttered in front of Nilti.

A few days ago, he swore that even if he died, he would not continue his life, nor would he get involved in the darkness, and he would slap himself in the face in a blink of an eye. Wouldn't it be embarrassing?

But life and death matter, mere face is nothing.

The fear of death just now still surged into his heart from time to time like a tide, so Kalulu's hesitation did not last long, and he quickly made up his mind.

I want to continue

Thinking of this, he immediately opened a small portal leading to the library, and reached out to fetch a thick magic book, the book of darkness.

The magic of the Supreme Sanctuary is generally divided into three parts, white magic, black magic, and time magic.

Time magic is the most feasible and easiest way to extend life, as long as you can mobilize the Eye of Agamotto, you can easily rejuvenate.

But this is also the most taboo choice. Mages know very well that time is a law related to the fundamental order of the universe, and no one knows what the consequences will be if they manipulate time.

In white magic, there is very little discussion about the continuation of life. After all, this is an act that violates the laws of nature.

Black magic has a lot of research in this area, and according to Nilty's narration, this is indeed the case. Therefore, if Kalulu wants to continue his life, he must start with black magic.

There are not many black magic books in the Supreme Sanctuary, and it can even be said that there is only one dark book. It is said that this book contains all the black magic in the world, and all black magic originated from this ancient book.

Kalulu used to be reluctant to get his hands on this book, but after all, his life was the most important thing, and he was going to be buried in the ground soon, and his face and morals disappeared overnight.

The Dark Divine Book was sealed, but he had witnessed Nilti's sealing process with his own eyes, so it would not be difficult to untie it.

After breaking the seal, Kalulu impatiently opened up this unpredictable black magic tome.

"Ah, this is"

As soon as he turned the first page, he showed a look of surprise and fascination, his eyes were blurred and he lay on the desk looking fascinated.
