I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 279 5 years
However, for Char, these are the things of those young people. For him, he only needs to be a bystander and a witness.
He silently picked up the cocktail on one side and took a sip. The door of the tavern on the other side was opened, and a familiar figure walked in. He saw Xia Ya at a glance and sat opposite him.
He was dirty and smelly, like a homeless man on the street, with his hair hanging casually on his shoulders.
This is Galant, the West Frenchman to whom Char gave immortality.
Today is almost the fifty years promised by Xia Ya and him, but it is a few years late.
"You're late." Xia Ya said.
Galante smiled bitterly, "Look at me now. I can't even afford a boat ticket. How could I arrive so soon?"
There was a little interest in Xia Ya's eyes, "But I remember that you did well with the Kaiser, didn't you?"
"Before that, is there water here?" Galante said with a dry mouth.
Xia Ya raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Not long after, a waiter came over. He was wearing a small suit and a tie around his neck. He looked very young, only in his teens.
"Sir, what do you need?"
"Bring me a soda," Char said.
"Okay." The waiter lowered his head and responded.
Soon, a glass of soda was served. Galante licked his dry tongue, quickly picked up the soda in front of him and drank it, and finally burped heavily.
He looked at the empty bottle in his hand and said happily, "The water you have here is still very refreshing."
Then, he looked around again, "Speaking of which, the changes here are really big."
As the population of the magical world increases, as the tavern opened by the legendary magician Merlin, many magicians will come here to check in and drink a cup of butterbeer.
It would be better if you could meet Merlin.
At the beginning, there were not many people in the magic world, but as the number of people in the magic world increased, the inside of the tavern naturally could not accommodate such a large demand.
So Char expanded the tavern, such as adding a second floor, and then hired several more waiters, most of whom were Hogwarts students. They came here to do odd jobs in their spare time to earn tuition.
At the same time, Xia Ya also limits the flow of people to be recruited. The number of people coming in from each place is fixed. After reaching this number, the entrance will disconnect the space.
"Can you tell me about your experience in the past few decades?" Xia Ya asked curiously.
Galante sighed, and after pondering for a moment, he said, "After we parted ways with you, Simon and I returned to Germany and reported part of what we had seen in Egypt to the Kaiser.
The Kaiser was very happy and provided me with an environment to study alchemy and gave me a lot of funds.
That period was the happiest time I had ever lived. I could live in a palace and have a lot of property at my disposal. I also married a beautiful wife and gave birth to a son.
But the good times did not last long, and my alchemical research never yielded any results, but it cost a lot of money.
As the Kaiser grew older, so did his patience.
My unchanging face made him even more irritated.
Later, I don’t know who advised the Kaiser, saying that eating my flesh might lead to immortality.
The Kaiser believed this proposal and was about to attack me, but fortunately I knew the news in advance and escaped with my wife and children that night.
But unfortunately, my wife contracted the disease during the trip, and my son was also infected, and he left soon after.
I hid everywhere in Europe, survived in the mountains and forests, and begged for food on the streets. The Kaiser chased me for thousands of kilometers, and the pursuit gradually stopped until the Kaiser died. "
He said with lingering fear, "The temptation of immortality is really too great."
Xia Ya shrugged his shoulders. He was not surprised by this. This was almost a future visible to the naked eye.
He shook the wine glass in his hand silently, "So, do you want to give up immortality?"
"How could it be?" Galante raised his eyebrows, "I have obtained what so many people are craving for, so why should I give up?"
“When I was young, my father found a pretty good job, but he had to move away from his hometown. At that time, I lost all my friends.
That’s when I understood that in order to gain something, you had to lose something. " Galante said.
"I've seen too much death and aging over the years, and that was the scariest thing I've ever seen in my life."
Deep in his eyes was the fear of what was in his mouth.
Xia Ya raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but said nothing, "Where do you plan to go in the future?"
"Go to a place farther away. I heard that Britannia is pretty good now." Galante took out a section of hair tied with a ribbon from his sleeve. "My wife likes it there very much. I I need to take her to see it.”
"I can give you a ride." Char said, "Exit through the door you came in, and you can reach Britannia.
Or. Is there anything else you haven’t brought? "
"I have brought all the most important things with me," Galante said. "After being on the run for so many years, I have to develop these habits."
He stood up slowly and saluted Xia Ya, "Then, see you in fifty years, sir."
"See you in fifty years." Xia Ya nodded.
Galante drank the soda in his cup, then opened the door. Outside was no longer the narrow alleyways of Provence, but the streets of the capital of Britannia.
Not long after the rebellion in the imperial capital ended, there was still a faint smell of smoke and blood in the air. He frowned slightly, but still walked out.
With the sound of wind chimes caused by the closing of the door, Xiaya's location returned to tranquility.
He quietly stared at the empty seat in front of him and slowly raised the corners of his mouth.
"It seems that I have a greater chance of winning this bet."
A voice came from somewhere.
"It's only the first fifty years, which is very early."
In front of him, where Galante was sitting, Semele, wearing a crisp black suit, slowly appeared.
He crossed his hands on his chest, crossed his legs, and looked out at the streets of the imperial capital through the window on one side, looking at Galante who was getting further away.
Galante's clothes were very dirty, especially with many holes in his back, and his hair was messy, but his wife's hair was carefully collected into his pocket.
"He already has many scars on his heart. How many ups and downs and how many separations can he endure in his life?"
"The human heart can be more fragile than anyone imagines, but it can also be stronger than anyone imagines." Xiaya said.
After a pause, he asked curiously.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, what have you been doing during this time?
Speaking of which, you seem a bit younger. "
Now the beard and wrinkles on Semele's face have disappeared. He used to look like a middle-aged and elderly man in his fifties, but now he looks like he is about thirty years old.
“I’m investigating some things,” He said, “but it’s not convenient to say.
"Oh" Xia Ya's eyes showed a little interest.
"However, I think you should be aware of it," He said.
Xia Ya didn't speak, she just tapped her fingers quietly on the table, as if thinking about something.
Semele picked up the newspaper that Char placed on one side and read it. He raised his eyebrows and said.
"This Gayward is the gloomy-looking child who was among the first batch of students, right?
Have you become some sort of Dark Lord now?
It seemed like there was a lot of commotion.
Will you intervene? "
"Leave the child's affairs to be resolved by himself." Xia Ya said quietly.
…………
……
...
Leaving the tavern, Char returned to the hall of the castle.
He walked straight to the balcony. The castle was still parked on the top of Wugong Mountain. It cost a lot of magic power to maintain the castle's invisibility, which was a burden for Calcifer.
So if you want to be more comfortable, it is best to stop in a deserted place.
Alicia was sitting on the cradle, also reading the newspaper, frowning slightly.
"Why is your expression so serious?" Xia Ya teased.
"What do you think this child will do next?" Alicia whispered softly.
"If he wants to fulfill his ambition, he must defeat Albus." Xia Ya's eyes flickered, "But he can't take action against Albus."
"There are not many people or things in this world who can defeat Albus."
"It's not much, but what if it's something beyond this world?"
Alicia suddenly raised her head and looked at Char.
He heard Xia Ya talk about the world outside the human world. No matter what comes out of it, it will definitely be a disaster among disasters for the human world.
"His men have been in contact with people in the underworld these years." Xia Ya said, "In other words, this was the purpose of his being imprisoned in the cell for these years.
Of course, his main purpose is to deal with Arthur, but now that Arthur is dead, Albus and Mordred will be his obstacles. "
"How could he get something out of Hades? The Great Death will not allow it." Alicia said.
Char shrugged, "Even the Great God of Death cannot monitor the entire Hades, in places that cannot be seen, in places that the supervision power of the Hades cannot reach."
Alicia's memory is very good, and she recalled the Headless Horseman incident that she encountered decades ago before she found the Fairyland.
Although Alicia did not personally experience what happened at that time, the head of the Headless Horseman is still lying idle in the storage room under the castle.
It was also at that time that Alicia learned a concept: there are some special nodes between the underworld and the present world, which can directly connect the human world and the underworld.
If it weren't for Char, many monsters might have escaped from Hades at that time.
Therefore, if we borrow this node and there is the cooperation of the God of Death, it is really possible.
