I studied beheading in a mental institution

The stars dotting the sky above the dome have all been extinguished at this moment, the flowing river of aurora has also disappeared without a trace, and the temples and temples that have lost all light sources are plunged into darkness.

The magic circle under Merlin's feet disintegrated inch by inch, his figure swayed, and he staggered to stabilize his precarious body, his eyes were uncontrollably stained with a layer of blood red.

Endless whispers echoed frantically in his mind.

His brows were tightly furrowed, and his right hand was lightly resting near his temple, as if he was struggling hard. After a long time, the redness finally faded away. He put down his hand, and the brows were more tired than ever before.

"Uncle Merlin? Are you alright?" Jia Lan helped Lin Qiye, and asked worriedly when he saw Merlin struggling in the distance.

"I'm fine..."

Merlin waved his hand and glanced at Lin Qiye who was lying quietly on the ground, "His body is full of the power of faith, and he hasn't fully absorbed the seal yet. Don't move his body casually, let him get used to it slowly."

"Okay." Jialan nodded repeatedly.

Merlin took a deep breath, walked through the temple, and opened the door with his hand.

Squeak-!

The deep and heavy sound of the door opening echoed in the empty temple. Merlin, wearing a dark blue magic robe, walked to the open space outside the temple, his eyes swept around, as if he was looking at something.

A moment later, he raised the magic wand in his hand, and two magic circles, one purple and one green, were quickly outlined under his feet, intertwined into two different mysterious patterns.

Inside the temple, Jia Lan, who was waiting beside Lin Qiye, saw this scene with doubts in his eyes.

"Uncle Merlin, hasn't the power of faith been sealed? Why are you still drawing a magic circle?"

Merlin stood in the center of the gradually forming magic circle, and said with a smile, "This is another magic circle."

"what is it used for?"

"The green one is used to temporarily cover the breath of the power of faith. These powers of faith are poured into the body of His Excellency Nanaya, which will inevitably make Susano who loses his mind violently pursue and kill him. We need this magic circle to delay the time ...

As for the purple one, keep it a secret for now. "

Looking at the smile on Merlin's face, Jia Lan stuck out his tongue.

In front of the temple, dense magical atmosphere spread out. Next to the unconscious Lin Qiye, Jia Lan looked at Merlin quietly, while Merlin looked down at the magic circle under his feet, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Under the red moon, the breeze blows over the wind chimes at the corners of the temple eaves, making crisp tinkling sounds.

"Little girl." Merlin said suddenly.

"Ok?"

"Who exactly are you?"

Jia Lan looked at Merlin and blinked, "What's wrong?"

"I'm ashamed to say it." Merlin sighed helplessly, "My eyes of prying into fate can see through the truth of Gao Tianyuan's demise, the cause and effect after the disturbance of the timeline, and the game between the two gods behind this catastrophe. ...

But today, two things suddenly appeared in succession that I couldn't see through.

One is the mysterious existence that protects the Yata Mirror from the pollution of the red moon; the other...is you. "

Merlin raised his head, those eyes sparkling with star marks calmly stared at Jialan's eyes,

"The trajectory of your fate in the past three years is clearly visible. But other than that, whether it is predicting the future or going back thousands of years in the past, it is all chaos... Who are you? Your past, what happened What have you been?"

Her long black hair was tied up with a red rope and scattered behind Jialan. She raised her head and looked at the wind chimes fluttering in the corner of the eaves, and smiled slightly.

"I will also keep it secret for the time being."

Merlin's expression became bitter, and he shook his head helplessly, "For a magician who pursues truth and truth all his life, there is nothing more tormenting than unknown puzzles... Otherwise, I will put this magic Let me tell you the function of the formation, and you tell me your past?"

"I do not."

"...Okay, let me change the question." Merlin stretched out his hand, pointing at Lin Qiye who was still unconscious, "Why did you approach him?"

"Because of love."

"I'm asking this very seriously."

"I am also very serious in answering."

"You have lived for thousands of years."

"so what?"

"How can a person who has lived for thousands of years fall in love with a man he has just met so easily?" Merlin looked into Jia Lan's eyes and said seriously, "I have seen your fate for the past three years, from the time you and him We have not been together for more than a year since we met.

For a year, even Lin Qiye didn't figure out whether he liked you or not. For a person like you who has lived for thousands of years, it's even more like a flick of a finger?

Don't tell me it was love at first sight, I don't believe it.

What is your purpose in approaching him? "

Merlin's voice became lower and lower. He stared closely at Jialan's eyes. The purple magic circle that had just been drawn under his feet gradually lit up, wisps of electric light swam across it, and a terrifying magical atmosphere spread in the air.

Jia Lan's dark blue Han gown was blown away by the turbulent magic power, she sat quietly beside Lin Qiye, her lips pursed slightly.

"This question is what you really want to ask, right?" Jia Lan said softly.

"En." Merlin said lightly, "You must give me the answer to this question."

Jia Lan's eyes moved away from Merlin's body, and landed on the cheek of Lin Qiye who was sleeping beside him, those pure black gemstone eyes blinked lightly, and there was a little tenderness between his brows.

"I approached him without any purpose, I just wanted to stay by his side... I waited 2000 years for him, how could it be against him?

I know you're afraid of me, but there are some things I can't tell you yet...

But I can guarantee that even if the whole world is against him, I will always be by his side. "

Merlin fell silent.

He frowned and stared at Jialan for a long time, but still sighed, the magic circle under his feet gradually dimmed.

"You believe me?" Jialan asked in surprise seeing Merlin stop so easily.

"Even if you don't believe it, you can only believe it." Merlin shrugged and glanced at the unconscious Lin Qiye, "If I really seal you here, he will definitely look for you crazily when he wakes up. I have become a villain who beats mandarin ducks again."

"Will he be looking for me like crazy? Really?"

"Of course." Merlin frowned, "He told me this morning that he likes you."

"He, he... he really said that?"

Jia Lan's body trembled, two blushes were quickly stained on his cheeks, the calmness in his eyes had long since disappeared, replaced by unprecedented excitement and joy.

"Well, he's just still confused. Is this his own inner thoughts, or the effect of Cupid's arrow." Merlin waved his hand, "You can explain to him yourself, the matter between you still has to be resolved by yourself, I It can only help here."

"Cough cough cough..."

Jialan coughed twice, suppressed the ecstasy in his heart, sat in the temple, looked at the figure in the magic robe in front of him, and said sincerely:

"Praise the God of Magic!!"
