I became a mage and was recruited by the lord as his son-in-law

Beth was stunned for a moment.

Bennett in front of him opened his eyes hazily. He looked around, as if he had just woken up, and asked blankly:

"Is this the dark swamp?"

Beth was a little dazed. The appearance, expression, and tone of the person in front of her... were exactly the same as the Bennett she knew.

"How...how did you get in?"

Bennett looked at Beth, feeling helpless and anxious, and said:

"Tomorrow is the reward ceremony, and I need your help, Beth, so I ventured in here."

Have three days passed outside? Or is the Bennett in front of him just an illusion?

Beth didn't know what to do. The last step of the Tree of Power was here. In other words, the person in front of her was the one that Beth had to absorb.

"You need my help? How do you want me to help you?"

Beth asked.

Bennett sighed and said:

"I'm still worried about Aimee, Beth. Although this may be a bit too much for you, I still hope you can lend me some knights so that I can go over there to look after them.

As long as it's past my time to come on the field, I can solve everything in a flash."

Beth was really in a trance now, this was really like Bennett.

Her eyes were a little empty, and she looked at Bennett with complicated expressions.

Bennett in front of him also looked at Beth. He seemed to think that this was a bit too much, and suddenly said:

"Ahem, well, Beth, you know, I'll listen to you from now on, well... ahem."

Beth looked at Bennett with a complicated expression. This was something he could truly say.

"You shouldn't..."

Just as she was halfway through her words, a black shadow appeared beside Beth, followed by countless voices.

"Beth, what are you going to do?"

“This seems to be true.”

"How about taking a gamble, what if it's fake?"

These voices encouraged Beth and also mocked her.

These are the Beths of the future, the future holds endless possibilities, and anyone in the dark swamp will have endless possibilities to absorb.

Beth could hear the voices of these people, and of course Bennett could hear them too. He pulled Beth behind him and said:

"I see that you look a little strange. Are these things your enemies?"

What a familiar reaction. Beth stayed behind Bennett. At this moment, she was in great pain.

"It is."

Bennett didn't ask any more questions. A beam of light shot out, and the black figure disappeared without even a spark.

Bennett was stunned for a moment, this feeling was not right.

He did not hesitate, and sent out another mental spike, and another black shadow suddenly shattered, like a balloon being pierced by a needle.

It's so easy, these shadows are too fragile.

But when Bennett looked around, he found that the shadows did not decrease because of his two attacks, but became more numerous.

“There has to be an end.”

There was finally a serious look in Bennett's eyes.

Beth watched Bennett for a while. She wanted to feel some flaw in him that would tell her that this was not the real Bennett.

So far, Bennett was exactly the same person she knew him to be.

A rune lit up, and a blue light appeared between Bennett's brows. Everything around him suddenly began to burst into high temperatures, and the entire space seemed to have entered a flaming furnace.

Beth looked around. The entire dark swamp seemed to have entered the interior of the sun. There was light all around, and everything was dissipating and reborn in the flames.

After a long time, everything around finally went out.

Bennett exhaled, retracted the rune between his brows, turned to look at Beth, and said:

"Now, those things are finally gone."

Beth shook her head, her face full of pain:

"No, Bennett, this thing has the same nature as the Sea of ​​Wishes. As long as time is still flowing and as long as matter is still moving, it cannot be killed."

Bennett shook his head and said:

"The Sea of ​​Wishes must be transformed into a mortal before it can exert its power.

The power here must have a source."

Beth stepped forward and grabbed Bennett by the collar. She looked at Bennett with tears in her eyes and said:

"Bennett, the only source here is me..."

Bennett was stunned, his face full of disbelief, but after a moment, it all turned into panic, and finally, he regained his composure.

"Beth, what do you think I should do?"

Beth opened her mouth. She understood that the person in front of her had already made up his mind and would make the choice he should make.

She looked into those eyes, and there was gray again in the blue.

"I want to ask you a question."

Beth's hands went to Bennett's eyes, rubbing around his eye sockets.

"You...just ask."

"Between me and Sera, only one can appear in your life, who would you choose?"

Just as Bennett was about to open his mouth, Beth's fingers blocked his mouth again.

"I want to hear the truth."

The man in front of her was silent. Beth put down the finger on his mouth unwillingly, but she felt humbled if she kept it.

But in the end, she let it go.

She was pulled into a hug. The person hugging her was trembling a little, but still said the answer she had already understood:

"It's Sera."

Beth completely collapsed in Bennett's arms. This was her last question and also her last test.

Only the Bennett she knew would have such a deep obsession with Sera, although this obsession was really incomprehensible.

Beth lowered her head, and pulling away from the man's arms, she said:

"Bennett, do what you have to do."

However, she waited for a long time but did not get her ending.

She was a little shocked. She thought Bennett wanted to help her, but when she looked up, the scene in front of her made her freeze in place.

Bennett stopped not because he suddenly had a sudden awakening of his saintly heart, but because a group of Beths held him back.

To be precise, it was a group of Beths that made Bennett fall into the long river of memories, leaving him no time to care about Beth.

"See? Beth, we are the only ones who are truly doing this for your own good."

A dark shadow said this sentence with difficulty. She was in great pain. It was very difficult for them to restrict a Scourge Mage, especially the strongest Scourge in history.

"Beth, what are you waiting for?"

The other black shadow was very anxious, and the previous black shadow had completely disappeared.

"Hurry up, Beth. As long as we kill him and get his Scourge Core, the Solar Scourge will appear again."

"Only by killing him can the future continue to be in your hands."

Finally, a black figure gradually became clear. It was a black-haired Beth with black hair and black eyes. It was the God-given Beth.

"Beth, you can have as much love as you want, but once you give up, Saint, there will be no chance for you anymore."
