HP: Embrace the Darkness

After repeated questioning, there was no result. Asseth could only give up the question and asked why he could understand their words.

"Because of the blessing."

The unicorn leader said matter-of-factly, looking as if Artes was making a fuss.

It seems to make sense.

Aces suddenly felt that he was making a fuss.

Suddenly, the unicorn leader snorted heavily and looked at Asseth.

"There are many functions of blessing, you can explore them yourself."

"But there's one thing I have to warn you about."

"what's up?"

"You have to choose your partner carefully."

The irrelevant words of the unicorn leader Feng Niu Ma made Asai unable to recover for a moment, and he asked in confusion.

“What does my partner have to do with blessing?”

The unicorn leader looked seriously into Asseth's eyes.

“Because this blessing actually comes in two parts, you can choose to give it to someone else.

"And your future partner will be the person closest to you. If there are no accidents, the person who gets your other blessing will be your future partner."

"But this blessing cannot be changed once given, so you must choose your partner carefully."

The unicorn leader's eyes were locked on Asseth, and the emotion coming from it became more and more serious.

"This blessing is very important to us, and is even related to the safety of our clan. Since you have been recognized, I believe that you will not betray our trust."

Aces felt the seriousness of the unicorn leader and the worry coming from Clausius next to him.

He stroked the pattern on his hand and spoke firmly.

"Thank you for your trust. I will prove with actions that I will not betray your trust."

The unicorn leader and Asseth looked at each other for a moment, then relaxed their bodies.

"I reluctantly believe what you said. By the way, the delivery of blessings requires the horns we voluntarily give away, so remember to bring your partner to us when the time comes."

Asseth raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"Does it have to be a partner to convey blessings?"

The unicorn leader gave him a strange look.

"Of course not, parents can do it, friends can do it too, as long as you trust that person enough."

Well, maybe my mother will like this gift.

Regarding the destination of this blessing, Asseth immediately thought of Anna, because Anna has always liked pure creatures like unicorns.

"By the way, humans, this blessing conveys that you'd better choose a partner, because the blessing is like a thread, connecting you closely."

The unicorn leader suddenly remembered this matter and quickly reminded Asseth.

Aces' hand unconsciously fumbled for the pattern and asked in surprise: "What does it mean?"

The unicorn leader looked at Cloris, then shook his head.

"We don't know for sure. We rarely send blessings. When you find your chosen partner, you can find the answer by yourself."

After listening to the words of the unicorn leader, Asseth silently gave up his original idea.

He doesn't care, but his father may not be willing.

The unicorn leader said almost what he needed to say and pushed Asseth out.

"Go on, go on, don't bother me here."

Aces was pushed by it and had to go out, leaving the end of the stream with Cloris.

Cloris walked quietly beside Asseth, and one man and one beast returned to the valley.

Antonio and Estella, who were waiting eagerly in the valley, found out that they were back and hurriedly greeted them.

"Asses, Asses, Asses."

The chirping Estella came close to Asses and called his name repeatedly.

"Do you understand what I'm saying?"

Aces smiled and put his arms around it, "You're calling my name, right?"

The little unicorn's eyes sparkled with excitement and he spun around in excitement.

"Wow, Asseth understands what I'm saying!"

Antonio joined in.

"Aces, thank you for getting me a name. I like it very much."

Aces raised his hand and patted it on the cheek.

"My pleasure."

After speaking, he hesitated and asked.

"Can I ask why you want to give me blessings all of a sudden?"

Cloris and Antonio stood side by side beside him, looking at him with tender and worried eyes.

"Because we feel that the magic in your body is very violent. Ass is our friend, and this is the only way we can help you."

Facing the sincere gazes of the unicorns, Asseth lowered his head in shame.

At first, he just wanted to exchange them for some materials that would not harm them, but he never expected that the unicorns could do this for him.

Thinking of the daily life spent with the unicorn family over the past year and the blessings they sent him.

Aces put his arms around the family of three and secretly swore in his heart that no matter what, he would save Estella.

"Aces, we still haven't solved your problem."

Cloris spoke suddenly.

Hearing this, Asseth closed his eyes and felt the magic power in his body.

Only then did I realize that the magic power was only temporarily appeased and a balance was formed, but in fact, it was still changing.

Cloris continued.

"You have to control your emotions. Too strong mood swings, especially negative mood swings, will destroy the balance in your body."

"Once the balance is destroyed, you may..."

At this point, it couldn't go on and just looked at Asseth with worried eyes.

Asseth smiled reassuringly at them with his lips raised, and accepted its words.

"I know about the magic riot. Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"I also want to send delicious food to Estella? Right, Estella."

Hearing her name, Estella shook her head excitedly and stamped her hooves on the spot.

"Yeah!"

One person and two beasts were amused by Estella, and the worried atmosphere was washed away, leaving only laughter.

After playing with Estella for a while, Asses saw nightfall and stood up to say goodbye to them.

The unicorns around him became more casual and close to him after he came back from receiving the blessing. Seeing that he was about to leave, they all nodded and said goodbye.

Antonio was worried that he would leave alone, and persistently stopped Asses.

"Come up, I'll take you back."

It leaned down and said to Asseth.

Aces did not refuse its kindness and turned over to sit on it.

Antonio was flying through the Forbidden Forest as he had come, dodging from time to time the branches that popped up.

Antonio didn't put Ass down until he was on the way he came.

"Go back, Asses, and remember to come and play with Estella often. She likes you very much."

Aces nodded, waved his wand, and cast an iron armor spell on Antonio before turning around and leaving under its gaze.

Only when his figure completely disappeared at the edge of the Forbidden Forest did Antonio turn around and leave.
