Mystery: The Stars Returner

Spirit world.

A black castle stood silently, and Renette Tinichole, who was as tall as the castle, was wearing a complicated, gorgeous, dark and gloomy black dress.

Originally, she had no head, and there were neat cuts on her neck. Her drooping hands held four identical heads with blond hair and red eyes.

But at this moment, the four heads she held in her hand had been combined into one and placed accurately on her neck.

Except for the fact that his body has grown as huge as a castle, the rest of his body is no different from a normal person.

When Hastur and Sharon entered the spirit world and came here, they saw what Reinette Tinichole looked like at this moment.

"Sharon..."

Seeing Sharon and Hastur suddenly arriving, Renette Tinichole slowly said Sharon's name, and the light in her eyes was a little more intelligent than when they last met.

"Teacher, have you, your injury completely improved?" Sharon leaned closer in disbelief.

When Mingming saw her teacher last time, she was still holding four heads, and her body was in a serious condition, and it was impossible to recover in a short time.

"A mysterious being helped me." Reinette Tinichole stretched out her palm and let Sharon stand on her palm. Then she retracted her palm and looked at Sharon closely.

"You've grown a lot."

"teacher……"

Hearing her teacher's gentle voice again, Sharon murmured with red eyes, but thinking that Hasta was still watching from behind, she quickly calmed down her agitated mood.

"Why did you come to the spirit world?"

"We are planning to go to the Republic of Intis through the spirit world, and we want to stop here to have a look." Hastur, standing behind, raised his head and looked up at Reinette Tinichole, who was as tall as a castle.

"Not by the way." Sharon added specifically.

She came here specifically to see how her teacher was doing.

"very nice."

Reinette Tinichole smiled gently, then quickly shrank in size and turned into a normal human appearance.

She looked slightly taller than Sharon, with beautiful blond hair that seemed to be made of splashed gold, and her eyes changed from red eyes to blue eyes.

To describe it roughly, she is a pretty big sister with blond hair and blue eyes?

"It's a rare visit, come in and sit down." Reinette Tinichole invited Sharon and Hastur to enter the castle.

"okay."

Sharon responded and followed Reinette Tinichole, followed by Hastur into the castle.

The dusty castle door opened little by little, welcoming its owner Renette Tinichole to move in again.

Entering the castle, Hastur was slightly surprised. He thought there was something different about this castle, but the overall composition and decoration style did not look much different from castles in the real world.

"Sharon loved living in this castle when she was little." Reinette Tinichole motioned Hastur to sit on the red-cushioned sofa, her eyes seeming to be lost in memories.

"When she wakes up every morning, she always likes to ask me to call her little princess. Whenever I call her that, she is always happy all day long."

"teacher……"

After hearing this, Sharon lost her thin skin, and the tips of her ears turned faintly red.

"You continue, I like to hear it." Hastur replied with a smile, motioning for Reinette Tinichole to continue.

"Sharon, are you angry?" Reinette Tinichole looked at Sharon sitting next to her and asked deliberately.

"..."

Sharon did not answer, but glanced at Hastur with a calm gaze, then took a deep breath, and seemed to calm down completely.

Renette Tinichole glanced at Hastur thoughtfully, held Sharon's little hand with a smile, patted the back of her hand twice, and began to talk about some things about Sharon's childhood.

Hastur listened with great concentration, and with Reinette Tinichole's addition, he naturally sketched out Sharon's childhood appearance in his mind.

She had a teacher like Renette Tinichole who loved her tenderly and lived in a castle like this since she was a child. She was raised as a real princess.

If it weren't for the changes in the Rose School, Sharon might have become a woman like Audrey and Bernadette.

Hastur tried to imagine it, but still felt that Sharon was cuter like this.

Renette Tinichole seemed to see through Hastur's inner thoughts and asked casually: "Sharon is cute now, isn't she?"

"Yeah, very cute." Hasta nodded in approval naturally.

Sharon, who was at the center of the discussion between the two, did not have an obvious expression on her face, but looked at the two of them calmly.

"I always hope that someone can take good care of Sharon on my behalf..."

"teacher!"

Sharon, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't help but interrupt what Reinette Tinichole was about to say.

"Oh, little Sharon is angry." Reinette Tinichole sighed, with a slightly plaintive tone, as if she was lamenting that the little cotton-padded jacket she had loved since childhood had begun to leak.

"..."

Sharon felt uncomfortable saying harsh words to her teacher, so she looked at Hastur, who was looking at her with a smile, and motioned for him to help her change the subject.

Hasta said seriously: "I will try my best to do this."

"That's good." Reinette Tinichole nodded with satisfaction.

"..." Sharon said calmly with an expressionless face, "You guys talk."

After saying that, he ignored Reinette Tinichole and Hastur, got up and left the hall on the first floor alone, and went up to the second floor.

Renette Tinichole looked on with a smile and motioned to Hastur to stay for a while.

"I know you hide a lot of secrets. I just hope you won't hurt Sharon in the future." Reinette Tinichole put away the smile on her face and added: "Humanity is the pillar against chaos and pollution. , I hope you never lose yourself.”

……

When Sharon came down from the room where she lived as a child on the second floor, Hastur was no longer in the hall on the first floor. There was only her teacher. She said lightly: "Where are the others?"

"I said I was going to meet my old friends, so I asked you to wait here for a while."

Sharon walked over to Reinette Tinichole and sat down, remaining silent.

"Do you want to know what the teacher said to him at the end just now?"

"No." Sharon answered firmly.

"I thought you wanted to know." Reinette Tinichole smiled and reached out to gently stroke Sharon's head.

Sharon stiffened at first, then leaned on Reinette Tinichole's shoulder, as if reliving the past.

After some distance from Renette Tinichole's castle, Hastur began to summon Gray Carrie.

A huge flying phoenix roared through the spirit world, causing all nearby spirit creatures to tremble.

Right now, in the days when the Lord of Mysteries has not yet awakened, he is the master of the spiritual world.

When He was about to approach Hastur, he turned into a smaller version of the firebird and landed gently on Hastur's shoulder.

"Looking at you, you must have been doing well recently, right?"

"Chirp." Gray Carrie responded happily.

I don’t know if it’s because the end is approaching, but His recovery speed has been much faster recently than before.

"I want to go somewhere and need your company."

"Chirp!"

Gray Carrie patted her chest with her right wing, indicating that she could walk sideways in the spirit world.

"Really?"

With a smile on his lips, Hasta looked up in the direction of the seven pure lights in the spiritual world.

He had thought about chatting with the Fool before, and now that he was passing by the spirit world, it was a good time.

With Gray Carrie around, neither the Seven Pure Lights nor Fulgen's Dog could stop themselves from approaching the gray mist and arriving at the gate of Origin Castle.

In order not to cause Sefirah Castle to take self-defense measures, Hastur just planned to knock on the door of Mr. Fool’s kingdom.

It should be interesting to see how Mr. Fool will react to this.

Hasta thought of the interesting picture and felt much happier.

Gray Carrie looked into the space above the Seven Pure Lights and fell into brief contemplation.

He also tried to get close to that place at the beginning, but in the end he couldn't even enter the gate.

It is the fortress where a Pillar dwells, and only those who are invited by Him have the opportunity to enter.

Otherwise, no matter how many true gods come here, they will not be able to enter through the fortress gate.

He had also talked with the Seven Pure Lights of the Spirit World and understood that the pillar was called the Lord of Mysteries, also known as the King of Time and Space, the Beacon of Destiny, the Incarnation of the Source Castle, and the Ruler of the Spirit World.

It seems to be falling into a deep sleep at the moment, but these days, especially the past few days, the gray fog shrouding there seems to be starting to stir up trouble.

Could it be that the Lord of Mysteries has awakened?

"It seems you already know where I want to go."

"Chirp."

Gray Carrie responded, her body suddenly enlarged, turning into a phoenix with huge wings, and motioned for Hastur to sit on her back.

"Later, remember to be polite." Hastur warned, floating onto the Phoenix's broad and soft back and sitting down.

"Chirp."

Gray Carrie let out a long cry, flapped her heavenly wings, and carried Hastur straight to the direction of the seven pure lights of the spiritual world.

The seven pure lights that originally stood upright in the spiritual world are now in an unstable state, as if they are fearful and guarding against something.
