Original God's Dark Priest
Chapter 475: A Trial
After a long period of staring at each other and being silent, Scarlett finally gave in. She breathed a sigh of relief and said with a casual smile, "I didn't expect that in this seemingly free city of Mondstadt, there would be someone like you who secretly follows me."
"Heh..." Rosalia didn't reply, but just looked at the other person coldly.
When Rosalia didn't respond, Scarlett smiled again, "Have a nice day to you too, young lady."
After saying that, she turned and left, leaving Rosalia alone to watch her quietly and guess her purpose.
In the Wolf Territory, early this morning, Saphir and Rosaline arrived at the territory of Wolf King Andrius. This secret place has never been developed since it was discovered.
This was what An Jiu and his companions had gained. Because Saphir had suppressed the information and did not tell anyone else, not many people knew about this. This time, she brought Rosaline to the entrance of the secret realm.
Yesterday I was planning to issue a commission for Ying to handle, but in the evening, Saphir thought about it and decided to handle things here personally.
Because it involves the Knight of the North Wind, she feels that it should be taken more seriously.
"Is this the secret place you mentioned?" Looking at the square in front of her that looked like a duel arena, Rosalind's eyes revealed an obscure emotion.
Saphir looked at the broken sword phantom in the center of the square and nodded: "Legend has it that the first North Wind Knight's companion, the giant wolf Boreas, rested here after traveling with him. Boreas' soul merged with the wolf demon god Andrius and eventually became the Wolf King of the North Wind.
But the first generation of North Wind Knights and the later North Wind Knights are actually not the same thing, so even if the Knights of Favonius later had the organization of Wolf Knights, I am not sure whether this place has anything to do with the person you miss..."
"If it's possible, then we need to investigate, right?" Rosalin nodded slowly, not discouraged by Saphir's uncertain words, "It's been five hundred years, Saphir, I have already accepted his departure, the pain of the past has driven me crazy, and I even forgot who I am.
No one understands my pain, only you remember the name that I remember in my heart, Rustam, my love, I miss him very much, really, very much..."
"In fact, you have resentment towards the Mond people. But you have never thought of destroying Mond, right?" Saphir stretched out his hand, feeling the slightly restless wind blowing from the wolf. "This is the country he protected with his life. No matter what, you would not be willing to watch it go to destruction."
Rosalin closed her eyes, as if she was suppressing her emotions. After a long time, she slowly spoke: "Don't presume to guess what I'm thinking, junior!"
"Hehe... you are still as strong as ever. But your disguise is useless in front of me. You can deceive others but you can't deceive me." Saphir didn't care about Rosalin's anger at all. He just chuckled and blocked her words.
Then, she shook her head before continuing, "Of course, like I said, if getting angry at me can make you feel better, then I can bear your anger, it's okay."
Rosalin lowered her head, looked into Saphir's sparkling eyes, gritted her teeth, and finally gave up the idea of continuing to scold him: "Why do you always act as if you know everything? It was the same before and it is the same now. Obviously, I am the senior, and I have never been the one who should be taken care of."
"Well... why? Because I'm the second seat." Saphir chuckled, "It's only natural for me to take care of the eighth seat, right?"
Rosalin took a deep breath and stopped refutation. After a long while, she sighed: "Suddenly, I envy Alechino a little bit..."
Saphir did not reply to this. In fact, Rosaline had no need to envy Alechino, because they had already been tied together, and they truly shared the same fate.
Compared to the bond with Arlecino, which is more based on family ties, the relationship bound to fate by the Fate Seat goes beyond the ties of blood and is a closer cooperative relationship.
"The first Knight of the North Wind was retained in Mond by Vanessa, the founder of the Knights of Favonius and the first Knight of the Lion's Fang. That man's name was not recorded, but he brought the title of 'Knight of the North Wind'." Saphir began to recall the history of Mond.
“Although there is no historical evidence, the Knight of the North Wind, that is, the owner of this Wolf’s End, may be the Knight of the North Wind of the Knights of Favonius in the eyes of the Mond people.
As for the later Knights of the North Wind, they will be more or less affected by it, such as the Knight of the North Wind Ravenwood, the Wolf Cub Rustan, and the current Grand Master Falgar. "Sapphire frowned. The history of Mond is really confusing and it is difficult to find a clear thread. "The person you want to see is the Knight of the North Wind five hundred years ago, the Wolf Cub Rustan.
At that time, he served as the deputy leader, assisting the Lion of Light, Alendrin, in governing Mondstadt. He was later killed in the disaster, and his apprentice, the Pure White Knight Roland, also disappeared..."
Even Rosalin only knew what happened in the past five hundred years, and she was not very clear about what happened before that.
All this is because Mond did not pay enough attention to his own history. Things that happened five hundred years ago were completely forgotten, and it was even more impossible to remember things before that.
Rosalin listened to the names of the people who had passed by, and her heart was filled with emotions: "Rustan, young wolf Rustan... You know, during the time I lived in Mondstadt, I never heard anyone discuss his name, let alone his title. But now, the person standing in front of me and saying these words is you...
The Lion of Light, Alandrin, and the Wolf Cub, Rustan... So... He had already reached such a high level at that time. That's great."
Saphir held her forehead with her hand. She began to think of the captain again. Every time Roland was mentioned, she couldn't help but think of Capitano. It was obvious that the two could not be the same person.
Noticing Sapphire's abnormality, Rosalin asked with some concern: "Are you okay? You don't look right."
"It's okay, I was just thinking about something else. Do you want to enter the secret realm? I can wait for you outside." Saphir waved her hand. She knew that now was not the time to think about this.
Looking at the shadow of Wolf's End flashing with a light blue glow below, Rosalin swallowed. She wanted to see Rustan very much, but what if she couldn't see him this time too?
When she was about to succeed, she suddenly became timid because she was afraid that the answer would be no, and that there would be no trace of that person's existence in this secret realm.
If you don't verify it, you will always have hope in your heart, and always feel that there will be opportunities in the future. But when the opportunity is in front of you, whether or not to uncover the final answer makes you afraid.
If there really isn't one there...
Her hopes were dashed.
"Unrealistic hopes are like bright and beautiful poisonous wine. If you savor them carefully, they may be rewarded with sweetness, but they are also steps towards inevitable death. The longer this feeling is brewing, the stronger the poison. It is better to have hopes shattered early than unrealistic fantasies."
"People always have to live in reality, and dreams will always end." Saphir's gentle voice sounded. Her words were a little cruel, but they were also true.
I have done what I should do, but if I really can't get what I want...
Our fate has ended, so it’s not surprising even if we can’t meet each other. It should be said that being able to meet each other is a luxury.
Rosalind pondered for a moment, and finally jumped down and came to the shadow of Wolf's End. With a complicated expression, she stretched out her hand and touched the light blue shadow.
“Fate comes and goes, the moon waxes and wanes, no matter what the outcome is, it’s all ‘fate’… How ironic, we are all the ones trying to fight against fate, but at a time like this, we pray for fate’s favor…” She muttered to herself as she pulled out the wolf’s end made of phantom.
"Buzz..." Thick fog spread, and on the opposite side of the duel arena, a pair of blue eyes suddenly opened, looming in the mist, looking very terrifying.
"Who triggered the trial of the Wolf Territory?" As a deep voice sounded, a giant blue and white wolf slowly emerged. Its nearly six-meter height made Rosaline, who had a huge height advantage compared to ordinary people, look like a little doll.
And Saphir, sitting above the arena with his legs dangling in the air, looked even smaller than he actually was.
Seeing the giant wolf appear, Rosalin narrowed her eyes slightly: "Wolf Demon God... Andrius?"
"Oh? I'm surprised that someone still remembers this name." The giant wolf spoke in human language and slowly walked to Rosaline. It walked around her and said, "For this reason, if you can't pass the trial, I can still spare your life."
Hearing such brazen words, Rosalin's eyes flashed with anger: "Spare my life? That's really brazen."
"Hehehe, you look very confident. Let me guess who gives you the confidence...the little girl sitting on the cliff over there?" The wolf spirit's gaze fell on Safir. Obviously, it noticed Safir's existence from the very beginning.
Seeing that the other party had discovered him, Saphir did not hide, but waved his hand and said, "We are here to ask questions. We should be able to obtain the right to ask questions by passing the trial, right? Andrius."
The giant wolf looked at Safir deeply. It could feel a great threat from the other party, but it also understood that the other party was willing to speak like this, obviously not intending to use force, so that would be easy to deal with.
But before answering, it emphasized: "Andrius... is dead. He left behind a remnant of his soul to guard this Wolf Territory, so, I am not Andrius."
"Then what are you? The remnant of Andrius? You can call it Andrius, right?" Saphir asked doubtfully, "You can't be Boreas, right?"
The giant wolf shook his head slightly: "I am neither Andrius, nor the remnant of Andrius, nor am I Boreas.
I am the product of the fusion of the soul left by the dead Boreas and the residual soul of Andrius. I don't know what name I should use to introduce myself.
Fortunately, I never leave here, so even if there is no suitable name, it will not hinder me or others. "
"Oh, whatever. Anyway, you just need to pass the test and answer the questions, right?" Rosalin didn't care about the beating around the bush and went straight to the point.
The giant wolf stared at Rosaline, then nodded slowly after a moment.
Rosalyn clenched her fists and asked softly, "So, what is the content of the trial?"
"Defeat me." As soon as the words fell, Rosaline in the giant wolf's eyes changed completely. Her originally loose nun uniform was replaced by a golden armor, and golden wings grew behind her, with red flames burning on the wings.
Her already tall figure looked even taller as her wings flapped, her feet off the ground and she stood on tiptoe.
A golden helmet covered her head, and her long golden hair was bound in the helmet. The ends of her hair that were left outside were still burning with tiny flames.
The flames burned slightly, but they could not burn the delicate hair. All this made Rosalind look strangely sacred and holy, and people could not help but imagine her unparalleled strength at first sight.
Rosalin finished dressing up as Saint Kai in an instant, then raised her right hand, and a scarlet sword appeared in her hand: "Welcome to the judgment."
A voice without any fluctuation came out of her mouth slowly, and her originally blue eyes were dyed into red gold by the golden light. There was indifference in her eyes, and there was no trace of emotion.
Seeing Rosaline suddenly change so much, even the giant wolf that had merged with the remnant soul of Andrius became a little uncertain. The sudden burst of energy fluctuations from this woman was too weird, and it suspected that it might not be her opponent at all.
Feeling increasingly uneasy, the giant wolf subconsciously glanced at Saphir, who was still standing there. From its perspective, this woman who suddenly exploded with energy seemed to be a fan of the girl who was watching the show. If that was the case, then if the girl completely exploded...
But it no longer has time to consider these issues.
The next second, the sword in Rosalind's hand was stained with a layer of golden flames. As she swung it, a wave of flames suddenly shot out and hit the giant wolf's body with lightning speed.
The scorching flames also had a burning effect. The giant wolf, which was immune to both ice and wind, had very low resistance to flames and was instantly ignited by the flames, with its pure white fur beginning to burn.
"This is a trial. I am the one who accepts the trial, but... you are the one who faces the judgment." Rosalin lunged forward with the sword, ready to launch a continuous offensive to defeat the wolf spirit in one fell swoop.
The giant wolf was unable to react to the sudden attack just now, but now it has put all its energy into the battle with Rosaline, so it will naturally not be attacked in such an unclear way again.
Seeing that Rosaline wanted to attack, it immediately raised its upper body and swung its claws in an attempt to repel Rosaline, but unfortunately, Rosaline's body was also at a monster level. She blocked with her sword horizontally, directly resolving the giant wolf's attack.
Then she raised her free left hand slightly, condensed a ball of fire, and shot it straight into the giant wolf's body.
"Roar!" The giant wolf felt pain as flames entered its body. It immediately jumped away and began to breathe heavily.
The giant wolf, which originally only had the dual attributes of ice and wind, now had burning flames in its breath after it jumped away, which looked extremely strange.
Seeing this scene, Saphir couldn't help but applaud Rosalyn's wonderful idea: "Ah! This burning truth!"
"You are not an ordinary human, you are... a witch?!" At this point, even if the giant wolf was slow, it should have reacted. It looked at Rosaline with more vigilance. Witches are different from humans. This kind of people also have the qualifications to compete with the devil.
In other words, even Andrius in his prime would have to be cautious when meeting Rosaline to avoid a disaster, but now it can be said that this giant wolf spirit has almost no chance of defeating Rosaline.
Rosalin did not reply. Her whole mind was focused on killing the giant wolf. She raised the sword in her hand again, and the rich fire element gathered, ready to go.
Noticing this scene, the giant wolf howled to the sky, and rich ice elements gathered from all directions. The King Wolf of the North Wind entered the second stage.
