Travels of the Necromancer

After confirming that I love Lai, the remaining things are much simpler, just follow the general steps. Countless novels and dramas about love from ancient times to the present have provided me with rich references.The simplest steps to sum up are probably: getting acquainted, dating, proposing, getting married, having children... Well, the last step is omitted, and the first step has already been carried out, so Ley and I should start dating.

After a few days of study and research (the objects are still various monthly magazines), I realized that the "dating" mentioned here seems to have a certain deviation from my original understanding, but fortunately the deviation is not too big, and it is also an agreed time and place Meet, but the content of the meeting is not to discuss tactics or take risks together.

Dating starts with plenty of time.Now most of the team members are going to perform another task of escorting the business group, and there is no task suitable for three or four people on the task list. Ley and I are in a state of rest.So I made an invitation to Ley to "go around the neighborhood in a few days", and Ley agreed.

Then it is to prepare a suitable gift. If you don't know what the other person likes, flowers are a good choice.flowers?By the way, there are a few corpse indigo plants in my space that are quite fresh. Although Lai probably won't use them, they can still be sold for a good price if they are taken to the auction.

The last thing is to choose a suitable dating location, which must have beautiful scenery and not be disturbed by too many people.After repeated comparisons, I finally chose the Warcraft Forest, which is twenty miles away from the small town where the Mercenary Guild is located.

On this day, the weather was fine, and I took Lai into the Warcraft Forest.

The map shows that there is a waterfall deep in the forest, so we headed in that direction.It was now late autumn, and the forest was still thick with trees, and it grew darker as we went in, and soon we heard the rumble of the waterfall.After following the sound for about a quarter of an hour, my eyes suddenly opened up.The towering cliffs stand tall, with yellow vines hanging on them, and the river rushes straight down from the cliffs, with an astonishing momentum.At the bottom of the waterfall is a deep green pool with clear water.When we arrived at noon, the sun was at its best, and a rainbow appeared on the halfway of the waterfall.

The scenery is really beautiful, and there are few people. In fact, there is no one else in the forest except me and Ley.The only downside is that there are a little more monsters.I walked to the pool with emotion and washed the blood off my hands.

The level of monsters in the forest is not high, but probably due to the need to store food for the winter, their activities are quite frequent.Along the way we encountered three Timberwolves, a devil bear and a group of winged snakes.Out of the habit of mercenaries, we only used martial arts to deal with them at first, so as to take out the magic core completely.But soon I came to my senses that my date with Lai would turn into a hunt for monsters, so I decisively used the Blast Flame Curse to blast all the monsters that dared to block the way, and finally arrived at the waterfall before noon.

Sure enough, I shouldn't choose Warcraft Forest. In fact, the scenery of Hongye City is better, but there are too many tourists.However, if I send a few skeletons and walking corpses to go around twice, it should be able to solve the problem of overcrowding. Anyway, the temple is busy with the Western Expedition now, so there should be no time to take care of such trivial matters.

After watching the rainbow, I took out the corpse bluegrass: "Well, Ley, this is for you."

"Give it to me?" Lai took the corpse bluegrass, frowned after looking at it, but quickly regained his composure, and put the corpse bluegrass into the space bag.

Don't like it?The leaves of the corpse bluegrass are blue, and the flowers are also very beautiful. It is already the most beautiful kind of material for undead magic.It seems that Lai doesn't like flowers, so it's safer to give him crossbows or bows and arrows in the future.

Next, we walked around the pool, and no one spoke along the way.For the first time, I felt that finding a topic was so difficult. Maybe this is the nervousness of the first date mentioned in the monthly magazine.

"By the way, come back to the Dark Night Marsh with me sometime." I suddenly remembered that I should take Ley to see the teacher.

After a moment of silence, Ley replied: "Yes, but please give me some time to arrange things in the team."

Although the Dark Night Swamp is far away, it won't take long to use the teleportation array to go back and forth. However, considering that I have been away from the swamp for more than three years, I might stay with the teacher for a while if I go back.So I nodded: "It should be arranged."

Then, there was another long silence.

I see that it's getting late, this time the date can be successfully concluded.According to the general steps, the following can propose.

However, when it comes to proposing, I have been struggling with a problem, that is, I have already given Lai a ring and put it on for him by myself, so I don't know if I need to give another one now.Of course, there are still many rings used as magic props in my magic space, and there are many rings that are more precious than that crystal ring, but the problem is that I put the crystal ring on the middle finger of his left hand at that time, which happened to be a marriage proposal When you should give the other party to wear the position.

So, I now have three choices: take off the crystal ring and put it on him again;

Which way should I choose?I continued to struggle.In the final analysis, the guidance in the monthly magazine is too brief and does not consider every possible situation.Of course, Ley may refuse, but this possibility is not within the scope of my consideration.

Lai probably sensed the entanglement in my heart and the hesitation to speak, and suddenly stopped and stared at me: "Chris, what do you want to say?"

What I want to say, what I want to say... Forget it, don't worry about the ring, just propose directly!Just, what should a marriage proposal say? ! "Please marry me!" seems a bit wrong; "Please marry me!" still doesn't seem right...So what am I going to say?

"Well, I just want to ask, are you willing, um..." Countless inexplicable thoughts filled my mind, and the words that should have been fully prepared were squeezed into a corner. It's something that has never happened before.Those blue eyes seemed to be blessed with spiritual magic, which made my reaction, memory and language skills plummet. Perhaps this is the so-called curse of "people in love have zero IQ".

"You don't need to hesitate. Since it's the condition I agreed to, you can come to get your reward at any time." Lai's voice interrupted me, and my mind finally regained its calm.

"What remuneration?" The span of this topic seems to be a bit large.

"My soul." It turned out that Ley was talking about the entrustment of Silvermoon Castle.

"I already said I don't need it."

"But you've changed your mind now, haven't you? Although my knowledge of undead magic is limited to the guild's information, I also know the role of corpse bluegrass."

The role of corpse bluegrass?Isn't the corpse bluegrass used to reincarnate living people into undead creatures... Uh, so Ley misunderstood.

"The corpse bluegrass is just a gift, I didn't mean to let you use it!"

"Go back to the Night Swamp with you?"

"I just thought I should introduce you to the teacher."

"So what do you want to say after hesitating for a long time today?"

"I propose to you!" Hey, I seem to have said it.

As a result, the surroundings became quiet again, except for the rumble of the waterfall.Ley and I looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

Suddenly, Lei lowered his head, his shoulders trembling.Usually this kind of action is either crying or laughing. I don't think Ley will be moved to tears because of my marriage proposal, so there is only the second possibility.

"Hahaha! Chris, the way you think is really..." Lai smiled for a while before calming down, "Are you sure you know what the proposal means?"

In my impression, Lai never seemed to have smiled so heartily. Seeing his smile like this, even if the joke was me again, it didn't seem to be a big deal.But what he said later made me a little concerned, and I always felt that I was despised somewhere.

"I'm very clear." I replied seriously, and suddenly remembered another thing, "Ley, what did you see in the illusion of the Devil's Forest?"

Facing this question Ley seemed a little surprised, but I continued without waiting for his answer: "I saw you."

"I am very aware of the wishes represented by other illusions, but I have never understood why you appeared in the end. Now, I think I understand a little bit." At this moment, my thoughts suddenly became clear.There is no need for any monthly tests, and I already have the answer in my heart.

Lai is very important to me. I don't know when it has become more important than food.Teacher and Noah are also important to me, no doubt, but they have subtle differences.I suddenly admired the first person who classified human emotions into different categories. Different emotions are sometimes so similar, but they can indeed make me feel the difference.

Ley is different, or unique, to me.Whether this feeling is defined as love is not important to me, I just know that I want Ley to stay with me, and I want to see his smile.

"So, I want to make a new contract with you. It doesn't need to be bound by magic power. It's a contract that can only be made once in a lifetime." I took off the space ring on my hand, and then looked into Lai's blue eyes again: "Will you accept it?"

However, Lai turned his gaze away: "In the trial, what I saw was my brother."

Hearing such an answer, my heart sank.

And Lai looked at the waterfall seriously: "But I have always been a little strange, why the brother's appearance appears twice in a row. As for the ring, I have already got used to wearing one, but you can help me take care of this .”

Saying that, Ley took out another ring from the interspatial bag, put it in my hand, and then continued to look at the waterfall seriously: "This is what my mother left behind."

The information contained in these two sentences of Ley seems to exceed the limit that my brain can process now, and I stare blankly at the metal in my palm.This is just a plain silver ring with no markings, but I suddenly felt its weight.
