[Comprehensive] The Magician's Wish

Countless stone rooms, winding and criss-crossing corridors, a labyrinth that can't be seen at a glance, this is a maze of the king's mind.

Perhaps it was projecting his spiritual world into this darkness, or perhaps it simply reflected the emptiness and confusion in his heart. The huge stone labyrinth hindered his progress and hindered his actions.

No matter how you walk, you are detouring in the maze, you can't find the exit, and there is no entrance, as if it is just a closed space, with no beginning and no end.

Realizing this, Wang Yang didn't do any useless work. He ran around like a headless chicken, raised the long sword in his hand, and slashed at the stone wall mercilessly. The sharp blade cut off the wall, revealing the view.

In this way, he swung his long sword towards the direction where Nunnally fell and disappeared. Sometimes he would encounter traps, sometimes he would see hallucinations, and sometimes the space would be distorted and chaotic, and he might lose his way if he was not careful.

In the spiritual world, the spiritual will will be directly reflected. Wang Xiang's willpower is tenacious, unshakable and without confusion, so his long sword is invincible, and no room can stop him.

So, the labyrinth changed again. When his sharp sword broke through a wall and stepped in, the empty room turned into a patchwork and exotic courtyard in the blink of an eye, and the guards stood in order , the line of maids walked by with their heads bowed neatly.

This is the royal palace of ancient Egypt.

Wang Yang looked down and saw that his clothes had indeed changed into ancient clothes, and he still held the long sword in his hand.

A man suddenly appeared from the big man placed under the pillar next to him, holding a wooden cover with both hands, and wowed at him, playing a prank to scare people.She has long dark brown hair, green eyes, painted with eye lines popular in Egypt, and a simple cool attire.The climate in Egypt is hot, and everyone doesn't wear too much.

"Prince, it's been a long time. Why are you standing here alone today?" The girl looked surprised when she saw him, and looked around strangely. Sure enough, there was only one person without any entourage.

She looks almost exactly the same as the black magician girl except for the color of her hair.

"It's so strange!" She showed a happy smile, "Since the prince ascended the throne, I seldom see the prince, and every time I will be accompanied by a large group of followers. However, if Master knows about it, he will definitely chatter again. nagging."

Wang Yang just looked at her with an unclear expression and didn't speak.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the girl leaned forward in confusion, trying to get a closer look, but suddenly she lost her balance, shook, and fell out of the man with her head turned upside down, her hands still clutching the wooden cover.

"Wow...it hurts..." gasped, put down the lid in pain, rubbed the painful place, looked up at him, with a worried and puzzled face, "Is the prince in a bad mood today, he hasn't spoken all the time."

"...my name," Wang Yang looked at her deeply, knowing that it was an illusion, he still asked, "What is my name?"

There is no memory of this courtyard and this palace in his mind, it is blank, and he can't think of anything, but when he stands here, he has an unbelievably familiar feeling, as if he grew up here a long, long time ago , He thought he had forgotten it, but in fact, he subconsciously remembered it all the time, including the girl in front of him who was extremely similar to the black magician girl, and he also had a sense of familiarity.

Perhaps, this hallucination projected the memory hidden in his subconscious.

"Name?" The girl looked at him blankly, and suddenly she was asked this question with a dazed face. It was really strange for a person to ask someone else what his name was, and subconsciously opened his mouth: "A prince is a prince... ah, no, it's Pharaoh , the prince is Pharaoh..."

Even if it is an illusion that reflects the heart, his name cannot be found here, and it is really well hidden.

Wang Yang closed his eyes, and the picture of Nunnally asking who he was with a blank face appeared in his mind. The momentary shake made him caught by the illusion.In this world full of illusions, it is true that there is no way to waver at all, and there is no carelessness at all.

Opened again, the gorgeous crimson is calm and flat, without any confusion.

He ignored the girl who was sitting on the ground in pain and didn't get up, turned around and left.

"Prince... no, that Pharaoh?" the girl called after her.

This illusion is stronger and bigger than the previous ones, and it can't be broken by simply holding the sword and cutting around.

While walking and thinking, suddenly, he stopped.

The illusion of the royal palace was distorted for a while, rippled like a reflection on the water surface, and gradually faded and disappeared in the ripples.

In his field of vision appeared a strange water-blue long-haired girl, her face was somewhat similar to Nunnally, she looked gentle and graceful, her kind temperament was particularly attractive, she was soft and weak, her whole body looked like a goddess, ice blue Her eyes were as bright as water, and she looked at him with a smile.

"I thought I would be confused by the illusion... She was hit when she asked who you are? However, it is not completely superfluous. It is useless to remember the direction here. The space distortion can change at any time, and the passage of time can also Can be manipulated at will." The girl looked at him with a smile, she seemed out of place in this dark world, she was neither an illusion nor controlled by the spiritual world, she had her own will to decide.

Looking at her vigilantly, the long sword in his hand is ready to swing at any time. The illusion of real and fake is the most difficult to distinguish. The meaning of this kind of unknown guy coming out is really unclear, and danger will strike at any time. Can't relax.

"She's over there." Not minding Wang Xiang's sharp knife-like gaze, the girl looked at him with a smile, gentle and tolerant, just like a mother watching a child making trouble for no reason, and pointed out the exact direction for him with her slender fingers, "If you see it, you shouldn't look at it." something that is crying."

Normally, this world is a spiritual world dominated by enemies, and the only ones who sing against it are those from the outside world. However, he can't tell whether the unidentified girl in front of him is an illusion. Her existence has nothing to do with this world itself. There are some inconsistencies, but there seems to be a little difference in the vagueness, and I can't help but treat it as a real person.

The crimson eyes stared at her closely, trying to find a flaw, but she just kept a gentle and graceful smile, submerged in the darkness, and said nothing more.

In the end, Wang Yang decided to follow the direction she pointed out. If there is a trap, break through it. If it is true...

Nunnally squatted on the ground, holding the golden kitten, crying sadly.

【scared……】

【Why do you want to kill those innocent people so cruelly...】

[What is the reason for heretics...]

[Gods with different beliefs will be involved in this kind of unreasonable war... Even if they kill unarmed old and weak women and children, they will not show mercy. This kind of thing is unreasonable and wrong! 】

Another sound came from her ears, the sound of cold metal rubbing, and a sharp knife was resting on her neck.

"There is another heretic in this place!" The man's voice was full of murderous intent.

Nunnally lowered her head, her face pressed against the furry head of the kitten, the smooth and beautiful fur was wet with tears, even though she felt the place where the blade was lowered had a creepy atmosphere, she didn't look up.

【scared……】

The illusion became reality, and this cold knife could cut her neck at any time.

There was the sound of rustling and horseshoes in her ears, and it seemed that many people were walking towards her.

The bloody smell of harvesting many living beings seemed to linger in her nose, it was unpleasant and disgusting.

[Belief in God will bring about this kind of struggle, and then lose the original intention of belief and become something else. Human beings believe in God only in pursuit of happiness and seeking spiritual support. What is the meaning of belief that will bring about killing? , for most people who just want to live an ordinary life, it is not as good as a bag of food that can feed the whole family. 】

[The accusation of heretics is entirely a crime of intention. 】

The phantom will become more and more powerful due to the wavering of the mind. Nunnally fell into her own thoughts and ignored it, but gradually weakened and disappeared.

She couldn't remember who she was, she couldn't remember that she knew magic, and the only thing left was that her ability to think hadn't been taken away. Even if she didn't have any memories, her thinking was still there, and the barrier of spiritual will couldn't be easily broken.

She has seen the cruelty of fighting for faith, and she has become more and more convinced that the gods of Aedras are wrong ideas.

Being frightened by my brother's black history and causing a estrangement in my heart has never happened since the beginning. The executioner who fears and resents the executioner directly is the way of thinking of ordinary people. Seeing the essence through the phenomenon, thinking about the root cause of the whole phenomenon and gaining insight into the hidden truth It is her way of thinking, which is the difference between the ruled and the ruler.

So, the illusion collapsed.

She wept, she shed tears for the innocent people who had been killed, just because she couldn't identify with this kind of thing, she was in pain because of the cruel reality.

The king of monsters who was hugged breathed a sigh of relief, and he didn't seem to have fallen into a mental trap. Even if he didn't remember anything, his mental state would not regress because of memory forgetting. Being strong is being strong.

Subconsciously, she stretched out her barbed tongue and licked Nunnally's cheek, comforting her intimately.

The strange touch brought Nunnally back to her senses, straightened her back, and wiped the licked area with the back of her hand.

Illusions always come without warning. Feeling the comfort of the kitten, I was about to touch its head, but in the next second I saw a pale hand sticking out from under my feet. It was bloody, and the nails were detached. He scratched indiscriminately, and actually touched her.

"Ah—" Frightened, he fell back and sat on the ground.

The hand seemed to hear the sound, and immediately grabbed it.

A bloody hand clutched her ankle tightly, and Nunnally couldn't help screaming, "Ahhh——"

This shrill scream was like a signal, starting the next round of illusions, one by one bloody arms stretched out from below, swinging back and forth, accompanied by howling ghosts and wolves from nowhere, It seems that there are countless evil spirits and ghosts below.

"I don't want to die..." Another hand protruded from the side of the hand holding Nunnali's ankle, and a person crawled out slowly from below, with burns all over his body, and a fatal wound on his head. He closed his eyes and stared at her intently.

There are people hidden under each arm. There are old people, children, and women. They are all villagers who were slaughtered innocently.

They crawled out from below full of resentment, some with half of their bodies, some with only one head sticking out, the children crawled the fastest, expressing their unwillingness and resentment.

"It hurts...It hurts, sister..." A child who was closest to her wobbled towards her, stretched out his hand, and was about to touch it.

A sharp cold light flashed, and accompanied by the creepy sound of flesh and blood being separated, the feeling of being caught on the ankle was relieved, and the head was pressed hard in the arms, unable to see anything, almost touching her little one. The child's wailing also disappeared, only the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Wang Yang suddenly appeared from the darkness, cut off the hand holding Nunnally's foot with a sword, blood spattered, kicked the wobbly child away mercilessly, and held her down neatly with the other hand The back of his head, he pressed his face into his arms, not letting her see it.

These phantoms are harmless to him, what effect can a wobbly ordinary person have, and chopping with a sword is not much more laborious than chopping vegetables.

The more shaken her heart is, the stronger the illusion will be. These illusions of the dead all appear because of her spiritual loopholes.

[If you can't find the way out, let's use light to illuminate this place, and when it is lit, you can see the way. 】

Nunnally thought of this sentence suddenly in her mind, and then, something began to swell.

"Are you all right?" Wang Xiang asked, turning his head slightly to the side when he released the hand that was holding the back of her head and found that she was still in this position.

"...It's okay." She raised her head and raised a hand to wipe away the wet tears.

Looking at her hands, which radiated a faint light, the shadow that climbed up her clothes had disappeared, and seeing someone by her side made her feel a lot more at ease, and her mood stabilized.

This world is full of darkness, there is no sun, no light, but she can see herself so clearly, because she can shine. If this light can illuminate this place, will it be different?

She subconsciously thought of the city in the sky full of light, even if the sun disappeared, it was still full of light without any darkness.

"Can you... go to the same place with me?" He asked hesitantly, lowering his head.

"En." Wang Xiang answered calmly, without any hesitation.

Nunnally raised her head happily, looked at Wang Yang's affirmative gaze, and smiled brightly at him, as if seeing the sunrise through the clouds, her whole feeling was different, her warm amber eyes glowed with bright brilliance, shining brightly.

As long as the mind is firm, it will not be deceived. As long as it is unwavering, illusions can only be false and cannot cause harm.

Follow your intuition and walk towards your own spiritual world. The moment you cross the dividing line between the black and white worlds, you feel as if you have returned from another world. The lonely, monotonous city full of light changes when the two of you step back, your feet land on the ground, and stand on the edge. .

The colorful colors radiate from them in a way that is visible to the naked eye. The flowers shake and change back to bright colors, the ground changes back to its original texture, and the house returns to its original appearance, just like the spiritual world of the Crystal City returned to its original appearance.

Nunnally stood there staring blankly for a long while, and then became depressed.

"I was plotted carelessly for a while, and almost forgot everything and turned into a puppet..."

"You recovered?" Wang Yang immediately turned his head to look at her, his bright crimson eyes fixed on her, and his tone was raised with unconcealable eagerness.

"...Mmm..." Nunnally had a shocked expression on her face, and she was very depressed. "It seems that because of you, the power of forgetting that fills this place has disappeared."

She was hugged suddenly, tightly, and it hurt her a lot.

Wang Xiang hugged her tightly with both hands, and pressed her into his arms, without saying anything, he expressed his joy with actions.Nunnally actually asked who he was, and the shock and impact it brought was greater than he imagined. He relaxed his nerves, and the uneasiness and panic that had been suppressed all of a sudden was released, a little out of control.

"Aww..." The hugged kitten turned into a sandwich biscuit, howling in pain.

Nunnally immediately stroked the soft fur on its head soothingly, although this action was a bit difficult to do now, Wang Xiang hugged her tightly as if she was drowning.

"I'm sorry..." Dumbly apologized, she knew that she was the one who made him so uneasy.

"No need to apologize, it's my own problem." If he could say his name at that time, he probably wouldn't be so uneasy, his mind suddenly went blank, he couldn't tell what it was like, and he didn't know what he should what to do.

This feeling is called helplessness.

After hugging like this for a long time, Wang Yang let go.

"How did you get in? This place has been completely surrounded by evil forces, and it is impossible to use tricks to get out. Moreover, I don't want to escape. Letting this kind of thing connect to my spiritual world is simply disgusting." pole."

"Have you figured out a way?" Wang Yang frowned, "It's impossible to wipe out the enemy in one fell swoop. At most, a confrontation can cause a certain amount of trauma. There are illusions everywhere, and it becomes difficult to collect information. The enemy is in the dark. Clearly, the situation is not in our favor.”

The little king of monsters was already able to speak, but at this time it shut up and refused to make a sound, quietly pretending to be an ordinary cat.

"Everything is hidden under the darkness, but when it is illuminated, there may be something to be discovered."

The border between the black and white worlds began to expand towards the dark world. This dividing point is not only the dividing line between the two spiritual worlds, but also the edge of the sky city. Over there, what is exposed is neither land nor a terrifying sea of ​​corpses and blood, it is empty and there is nothing.

The dense darkness dissipated little by little under the illumination of the light, was driven to a distance, and finally disappeared completely.

A girl with black neat long hair was floating in the void, with black eyes, fair to translucent skin, and a familiar face. Nunnally was shocked to find that she looked exactly the same as the girl she met before, but the feeling was completely different.

Different from the difference between Youyou and Wangyang, they are like looking in a mirror, one is crying and the other is laughing.

She was kind and ordinary while crying, revealing the weakness of ordinary people.

She is cold, ruthless, sharp and paranoid while smiling, charming and bright like a piranha.

"It's just to say hello today." The red lips curved beautifully, and the voice was charming and pleasant. She looked at Nunnally without a hint of a smile in her eyes.

"Aggressor, can't bear it anymore, are you ready to move?" Wang Xiang looked at her coldly with crimson eyes.

"No, no, no... My goal is only the godslayer Luaxiu. I'm not interested in this world. I'm about to move now, just because I found him in this era. I haven't found my target before, so there's no need to do it. something happened."

"Please tell him, I'm going to decide his life."

After finishing speaking, the girl with long black hair disappeared.

Nunnally jumped her feet angrily, "What does this woman mean, she just disappeared!"

At the bottom of my heart, I firmly remember that the girl who cried and was finally pulled into the abyss by chains, the spiritual world reflects the truest self. If she is the same person as the girl who is smiling, it is worth thinking about.
