This is a huge waterfall, and the river flowing down from the top of the waterfall is shining in the moonlight.The huge sound of water has been resounding through this place non-stop since the existence of the waterfall.After years of scouring by the river, this place is filled with indelible moisture, and people who pass through this area will feel a sense of humidity.

On the cliff facing the waterfall, stands a tombstone.The tombstone is engraved with the coat of arms of the cyan Pegasus and some English letters - KAREN LILICA, transliterated as Karen Lilica.

Obviously, this is the tombstone of the protoss mage Karen Lilica who died in a magical accident before the Cyan Pegasus Guild.In front of the tombstone stood an orange-haired man with his head bowed. The moonlight reflected on the man's face through the water of the waterfall. It could be vaguely seen that this man was Loki who left the Fairy Tail guild.

"Loki." Loki, who was staring at Kallen's tombstone without saying a word, faintly heard a voice from behind amidst the roar of the water, "Everyone is looking for you."

After getting closer, Lucy found the tombstone behind Loki, "That's Kallen's tomb, right? Kallen, the protoss mage, is your owner. Protoss Loki... No, his real name is Leo of the Lion Palace."

Leo, the protoss of Leo.According to legend, the leader of the zodiac gods is also one of the culprits who betrayed Karen Lilica and led to her death.

"It's a good thing you noticed that I'm a Protoss," Reluctantly replied to Lucy in a leisurely tone, but Loki could see the heaviness in his heart at this moment when he lowered his head.

"I am also a mage who has signed contracts with many protoss." Lucy replied with one hand on her hip, "That's why I discovered the truth about you. However, Mr. Cecil probably also discovered it."

"Cecile?"

"Yeah," Cecil came out from the woods behind Lucy with a slightly surprised expression.Cecil was not surprised by Loki's identity, but that Lucy was able to find Cecil, "But I'm more surprised that Lucy was able to find me."

"That's just a woman's intuition." Lucy replied.

"Is it a woman's intuition?" Hearing Lucy's answer, Loki smiled wryly. "Is it because of that intuition that I discovered the meaning of my previous words?"

"A woman's intuition is really scary." Cecil spread his hands and smiled.

"Well," Lucy shook her head, "I should have noticed it earlier."

"Originally, if the owner of the key dies, the contract with the Protoss will be terminated. Before the next owner appears, the Protoss will be forcibly sent back to the Protoss World. After Kallen's death, the contract should be terminated, but you You are still staying in the human world because of some reasons that prevent you from returning to the astral world."

"Just as humans cannot survive in the star spirit world, the star spirits cannot survive in the human world. Their vitality will be gradually deprived, and they will eventually die." Following Lucy's words, Cecil continued, "Before the Ghost War When the time comes, your magic power fluctuations have a sense of illusion, which is probably the reason."

Loki smiled wryly, "As expected of a receiving mage who is most sensitive to fluctuations in magic power. It has been three years."

"Three years? Even one year is impossible!" Hearing the number reported by Loki, even Lucy, who knew the protoss very well, couldn't help but be surprised. Lucy has the most intuitive understanding of the power of the protoss. I know, so this number is an almost impossible miracle for Lucy.

However, for a mage like Cecil who only has a basic understanding of Protoss magic but has not studied it in depth, there is nothing wrong with it.

"Ah, it's reached the limit, and I can't use my strength anymore."

"Maybe I can save you, and tell me the reason why you can't go back." Hearing what Loki said, Lucy became nervous, and both of them could hear the death, despair, and... nostalgia in Loki's words .

"I'll open the door for you!"

"I don't want your help."

"What are you talking about, you will really die if you go on like this!"

"The reason why I can't go back is very simple. I broke the prohibition between the owner and the protoss." Loki turned his back and looked at the copper bell on Kallen's tombstone. forever in exile."

"Eternal...exile?" These four words were obviously simple, but they pressed down on the heads of everyone present like a mountain.

"This is my crime, and I am willing to accept imminent death."

"You idiot!" Cecil, who was silent at the side, suddenly rushed to Loki and pulled Loki's collar.

"Wait, Mr. Cecil, what are you doing!" Startled by Cecil's sudden movement and roar, Lucy hurriedly rushed to tear Cecil and Loki apart.

"It was me who...killed my owner, Kallen, to death." Shocked by the sudden news, Lucy involuntarily let go of the arms that hugged Cecil, and repeated unconsciously. Follow Loki's words.

"This is the sin I committed. Once a person's life is lost, it cannot be retrieved. The dead can never come back. For the sake of

Redemption, only myself disappears together. "

"What about us?" Cecil stood in front of Loki and asked, "If you die, you know how sad everyone will be."

!If you die... Loki, hello!Loki what's wrong with you? "

As soon as Cecil's questioning was halfway through, Loki fell down suddenly. Cecil supported him in panic, but found that Loki's whole body had become translucent, and he could even see through Loki's body. to the waterfall behind.

"It's about time."

"It's time to come? Could it be..."

"It's time for me to disappear..."

"Using that day as the watershed, I will no longer be able to return to the Astral World. This is the rule of the Astral World, and there is nothing I can do about it." Looking at his transparent hands, Loki said with a wry smile, "From that day After that, Kallen's matter has been entwined in my mind, because

I did a lot of things to distract myself, but I still can't forget. "

"I've lived until now, and I've been waiting for this moment. The moment when I disappeared in front of Kallen's tomb."

Hearing Loki's depressed voice, Cecil kept using his healing skills on Loki, but he found out in despair that Loki's current body couldn't receive magic power at all, and he couldn't even use the most basic magic power transmission. .Loki's body seems to be

It's a bamboo basket, and magic power is like water, a bamboo basket full of holes can't hold water at all.

Loki turned his gaze to Lucy on the other side, with a slight smile on his face, "However, at the end of this life, I met an excellent star magician. Thank you Lucy."

"Wait, I will definitely save you, don't give up!" Lucy's brain was running at high speed, and she kept thinking of the solution in her mind.

"Greetings for my companions in the guild."

"No, I can't agree. As long as you can return to the Star Spirit Realm, you will be able to recover your vitality immediately! I will definitely let you go back!"

"This kind of thing is impossible, the rules are the rules."

"But, isn't it very strange, you can't say that you killed Kallen at all! It was an accident!" Hugging Loki, Lucy kept calling, "Open the door of the Lion Palace! , Let Loki go back to the Star Spirit World!"

"Open it, please! Open it!" He kept calling weakly, and tears slipped out of his eyes uncontrollably.

"Lucy, that's enough. Stop it."

"It's not enough, how can you let go of the companion who disappeared before your eyes!" The magic power of Lucy's whole body began to burn, and the magic power of the same hair color as Lucy gathered in this small area, and then went straight to the sky.

"Open it! Lion Palace Gate!"

"Lucy, you can't use so much magic power at once!" Seeing this, Cecil, who kept maintaining Loki's figure, immediately yelled at Lucy.

"The gate of the star spirit world, I must force it open!" The weak girl was stronger than anyone at this time.

"It can't be opened, the protoss who disobeyed the contract cannot return to the protoss world."

"Even if we can't return, we can't just watch our companions die." Cecil separated a thought body, and after receiving the lucky egg, he used the healing wish on Lucy at the cost of losing the thought body.The magic power that was about to be exhausted was fully replenished at this time.

"What's the point of magic that can't protect your companions? Even if it's the rules of the astral world, then... I'll change him!" After Lucy almost roared out these words, the magic power suddenly disappear.

Instead, the stars in the sky began to rotate at high speed, forming a beautiful picture, and the surrounding time and space seemed to stop.The waterfall began to flow backwards, and then covered the starry sky.

In the depths of the starry sky, a giant descended.Starlight shone all over his body, and the vast and empty magic power almost distorted the surrounding space.

"How is it possible! The Star Spirit King!"

It was only later that they found out that because of Lucy's remarks about changing the rules, they attracted the greatest king of the star spirit world.Although the Protoss King was also very embarrassed because of what happened to Loki, but as the maker of the rules of the Protoss world, he must set an example.However, things took a turn for the better.

"Listen to me, bearded old man!" Lucy couldn't accept what the Xingling King said, so Lucy retorted angrily, "This is just an unfortunate accident, what crime do you say logic has! Except for innocence, I don't approve of it, absolutely not!"

"I don't agree either." Because the appearance of the Star Spirit King brought a lot of magic power from the Star Spirit World and temporarily saved Loki's life, Cecil wiped the sweat from his face and stood up pale, " What's wrong with wanting to save your companions!"

"Even if Loki disappears, Kallen has no way to come back. It will only add new sorrow." Lucy roared at the aloof Star Spirit King.

"Living in the past and immersing yourself in sorrow will only add more sorrow. Only by moving forward into the future can one day be forgiven. I have always believed so." Cecil said to the lost Loki .

"It's not a crime. It's not a crime to think about your companions." At this moment, all the protoss in her hands began to gather around Lucy.

Loki watched this scene in surprise.Because, even a magician of the Holy Ten level has no precedent for summoning so many protoss at the same time.I didn't expect to see it in Lucy who just reached A-level.

"It was Lucy's desire to protect her companions, which was passed on to them, so they began to respond to Lucy's feelings. The so-called magic is this kind of thing..." Cecil looked at it with admiration. This is a miraculous scene.

"If you disappear here, you can only continue to make me, Aries, and everyone here suffer. This is not a redemption at all!"

"Everyone is in the same mood. If you are also a protoss, you should understand everyone's mood!" Lucy, who had exhausted her magic power, knelt on the ground and asked the protoss king in the sky.

"Well, being told so much by an old friend, it seems that the law may be wrong." Hearing what the Star Spirit King said, both Lucy and Cecil couldn't help smiling, "For the sake of our compatriots Leo, who committed a crime with Arias, wants to save Leo's old friend and her friend. For the sake of this beautiful bond, this matter is an exception. Leo, I allow you to return to the Protoss boundary."

"You can say something nice too, bearded old man!"

I laugh! "I'm exonerated, thank Fan Xing for her guidance."

"Wait for me……"

"If you still want to continue to redeem your sins, then I order you to become the strength of your friends and continue to survive. She should be a companion with such value, so you should risk your life to protect her."

In this way, the Loki incident is over.

but……

At the end of the inverted civilization, the shadows of the stars will bury everything; people who have experienced countless reincarnations, what is your choice...

This is the prophecy that the Protoss King secretly told Cecil before leaving. Although the meaning is unknown, Cecil can feel that it is very important.

The author has something to say: Recently, the author's laziness has been committed...
