Did the witch get her wish today?
Chapter 5
Once the closed box is opened, it is out of control.As if she had found an outlet to confide in, the girl slowly recounted her past:
When she was very young, she lost her parents because of vicious pirates, and then she was rescued by a passing naval hero, and returned to her inland, very wealthy and peaceful hometown.
The old acquaintance of the parents, Father Riebeck of the church adopted the young girl and brought her up. Under the influence of the priests working in the church, Lilium eventually became a nun.
In addition to her kind adoptive father, the girl also has a younger brother.Like her, he is a child adopted by Father Riebeck, named Jacob.However, unlike Lilium who grew up in Frevans, Jacob was not originally a resident of Frevans.
In memory, the childhood hometown was so beautiful, Lilium subconsciously raised the corners of her lips.
"Frevans, famous for its white ground and plants. That's because of the underground of the town we live in, a mineral with many uses called platinum lead. Jacob is the one who came to the town to mine platinum lead The children of the gold diggers."
Although there are frictions and quarrels in the lives of the three people, there is still laughter and happiness more.
Speaking of this, the girl stopped and took a deep breath.
"...until...until my year."
As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she realized that even though she was fully prepared psychologically, her voice was still trembling.
"My hometown... a terrible disease broke out."
That year, a terminal illness called "platinum-lead disease" swept the whole of Frevance without warning.Citizens, regardless of gender, age or age, are suffering from this incurable disease.Everyone can't do anything, they can only watch their hair and skin gradually turn pale, and then die in despair in excruciating pain.
She and her adoptive father also contracted platinum-lead disease, while Jacob miraculously survived.It was precisely because of this that Lilium learned a cruel fact from the best doctor in the town.
Platinum lead disease is not contagious, and the root cause of the incurable disease among citizens is the mining of minerals that can make them rich.
Platinum lead, which is white and flawless, will not cause harm to the human body if it is just left there.However, once contacted with these ores, even if it is only skin contact, a small amount of toxins that cannot be excreted will remain in the body, and will accumulate more and more as time goes by, and at the same time affect the lifespan of the next generation.
Although the doctors wanted to treat the patients in the city, the whole country quickly weakened and became chaotic when the border was blocked, the royal family fled, and the world government refused to lend a helping hand.
And that's not the worst development.
Neighboring countries mistook platinum-lead disease for a serious epidemic and sealed off Frevans' borders, shooting any nationals who escaped the blockade and tried to seek help.
The once peaceful and beautiful "White Town" has been infected by blood and gunpowder smoke.
"I was separated from my brother on the day the city was broken, so I went back to the church to look for him. Then..." Lilium stared at the back of her hand, and her vision inevitably became blurred. "Everyone... was killed..."
Whether it was Sister Jessie, who led the students and believed the soldiers' one-sidedness, went to the pier to escape by boat; or Trafalgar, who had been standing on the front line, even though she was seriously ill, and still did not give up on Frevans. The doctor; or the father who took the survivors to hide in the church, even Jacob, who was not infected with platinum lead disease.
One after another, the water droplets gently hit the girl's mottled hands.
No one escaped.
Lilium blinked vigorously, and raised her hand to wipe away the overflowing tears.
"When I came back to my senses, I had already come to that forest... I met Enkidu."
It's just that she still doesn't remember how she came to this world.After all, whether it is Enkidu and the fir forest, or Gilgamesh and this city called Uruk, they are completely different from the hometown in the girl's memory.
"Oh? Sure enough, this bastard is not from this world." At some point, Gilgamesh, who was sitting on a chair beside Dama Jindao, sneered, "Time, age, and even time and space may be different from outsiders. . . . you really brought me some good fun, Enkidu."
...She understands the truth, but why is this person interrupting so naturally and skillfully?
"So that means that what Lily has on her is neither a curse nor a miracle." Enkidu ignored someone's words, but gently stroked the white spots on the girl's skin with his hands.
The girl smiled wryly: "It's just a disease."
It's not a ghost, it's just something brought about by nature and man-made.
The beautiful green-haired boy frowned slightly: "But I do feel the aura of God from Lily, and so do the monsters in the fir forest."
As he said that, he finally took a look at the old man who was still sitting aside, but his expression was beginning to feel a little unhappy.
"It's the same for King Gilgamesh. You felt it when you saw Lily in the wilderness."
"That's right, that disgusting aura isn't from the heavens and has nothing to do with death, it's just chaos." The man closed his eyes impatiently, "It can even surpass the displeasure that that incompetent goddess brought to this king." Pleasure."
But even after they both said that, Lilium still had no clue.
"...I'm sorry, I don't know."
It may be because the memory has not been fully recovered, the girl does not know where the so-called divine power in her body comes from.
After all, although her hometown has beliefs in gods, the races in the world are also strange, and there are even devil fruits, which can make humans who eat them gain magical abilities——
But the gods never appeared.
If there was anything wrong, the only thing left was the whispers in her head that she heard when Enzidu was fighting the king.
Thinking of this, the girl suddenly shivered.
That feeling was really...too unimaginable, like an abyss, even if she just recalled it, she would feel uncontrollable chills all over her body.
A slender and fair hand caressed Lilium's cheek.
"Well...well, since you can't remember it, it doesn't matter if you don't want to."
Although she was curious before, Enzidu was obviously more accepting of the so-called dilemma than she was.
Of course, it may also be because he sensed the fear in her heart.
"Perhaps when the next opportunity comes, you will know why you came here."
As he said that, he showed a flowery smile to the girl: "It just so happens that I want to stay in Uruk, so Lily should stay here too."
"…………Eh?"
etc!Why did the topic suddenly jump here? !
She suddenly had an ominous premonition.
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Enkidu is right!"
At the same time, the blond man beside him also burst out laughing.
"This king is also quite interested in other worlds, don't let me down, bastard!"
After finishing speaking, the man got up and walked out swaggeringly without waiting for others to respond, and called a group of people who looked like court servants to come in.
Now Lilium couldn't say anything, she could only stare at the scene in front of her with her mouth open, and gave up resistance after a few seconds.
Her body was still aching, and the memory she had just recovered was also impacting her brain, and her emotions were in a mess, so she simply lay back on the bed and closed her eyes to sort out her emotions.
As for what Gilgamesh and Enzidu will do afterward...
Those two people can do whatever they like, she is tired, really.
When she was very young, she lost her parents because of vicious pirates, and then she was rescued by a passing naval hero, and returned to her inland, very wealthy and peaceful hometown.
