Strange Worlds-Chapter 254: Found
Chapter 254: Found
Silas was the exception.
As for the others, Aya was not sure that they would not hold her back when they finally met with the rank 2 ghost.
So Aya never thought about asking for help. ƒrēenovelkiss.com
"Then, why...?"
"If these ghosts are left behind, they’ll take over our world sooner or later," Aya said slowly.
Because this was what happened in her previous life. The people who stood at the forefront never truly solved the ghosts and allowed them to roam around. It caused so much destruction and death in her previous life that Aya felt numb when she thought about it.
Now that none of them had happened, Aya didn’t want it to repeat.
Even if this time was at a much earlier timeline compared to that time, Aya hoped that she could change something.
"I see..." Silas pursed his lips. "But it has never been your responsibility, right?"
He felt that from the way this rank 7 magic warrior kept on looking for the realm core, she seemed to treat this entire thing as her responsibility.
This made Silas confused.
The matter of the ghosts were very confusing and not many people who knew how these ghosts could appear in the first place. And while some magic warriors would definitely deal with the ghosts if they encountered it, they would not treat it with so much importance.
But Aya was different.
Silas could see that this rank 7 magic warrior seemed to be very serious in searching for the realm core and also felt a bit frustrated when the realm core couldn’t be found.
It was a bit... strange.
There were not many people who would care for the ghosts and Silas also knew this very well. He had met with many people and none of them treated eliminating these ghosts as their purpose in life.
Not her responsibility?
Aya was stunned when she heard Silas’s words.
She looked at her young teacher in a daze and then chuckled lightly. Ever she suddenly became Aya White, Patriarch White’s daughter, Aya seemed to think that she had to deal with these ghosts. Because of those memories, Aya felt that it was only natural for her to be the one to deal with these ghosts.
Yet at the same time, Aya also knew that she needed time to grow.
"I just think that it’s better for these ghosts to be gone," Aya replied calmly.
She definitely couldn’t tell the matter of her previous life or something to others. Besides, Aya knew very well that... knowing something yet doing nothing...
It was something that she couldn’t do.
This action might look stupid in many other magic warrior’s eyes as Aya was doing unnecessary things. But Aya didn’t mind.
Because she knew very well that without the stable world, she would not have the chance to live peacefully and eventually grew up.
Besides, watching these ghosts come out...
Aya didn’t want to see the same destruction appear in this world again. These ghosts had caused so much deaths that it was hard to see an intact family.
There were already wars between the cities.
Added with these ghosts, the situation was simply getting worse and worse as time passed by.
"Ok." Silas nodded.
He looked at these ghosts around him and shook his head. He didn’t really understand why someone was so fixated in eliminating these ghosts. Though, he himself didn’t like these ghosts either.
If it were possible, Silas also hoped that these ghosts would not be here and disturb his life.
"Hmm?"
As they were talking, a group of ghosts appeared from the ground and Aya’s eyes narrowed.
These ghosts would always come from the direction of the realm core unless they were disturbed for some reason.
And if Aya was not wrong, no matter where she was, there would always be ghosts coming out to block her path.
These ghosts were annoying.
And to see them blocking her path at any moment was also another feature that made Aya feel rather frustrated.
Now that she saw this...
Aya’s expression turned strange.
"Clear the ghosts," Aya said.
Silas nodded and didn’t ask for the reason. In the past month, the two of them cooperated quite well and it was usually Aya who led them. He still listened to Aya.
The main reason was naturally because Aya is stronger than him.
No way.
When they used their magic to clean up these ghosts, he could see that even a group of rank 1 ghosts were nothing in front of Aya. On the other hand, Silas was struggling hard and had to spend more mana in various magic spells to clean them up.
So even if they were both at rank 7, there were still differences in their ability.
Swish! Bang!
As the dark element spread as usual, Aya walked to the side and looked down. Her perception was quite good and when she wanted to focus on something, the result would be even better.
Aya took a deep breath and started chanting.
"I’m the mother of the earth, the source of nature and nourishment of life. The beauty of the earth is splendid and should be presented to those who stood in my face. Protection, guardian, life and beauty should all be present. Being stepped on, why should one forget about the land that had given so much for us? Lend me your strength oh the mighty land and let your strength overwhelm those who dared to stand in your way. May the earth and land come forth, disaster, earthquake strike!"
The earth rumbled, the ground was split open.
The ghosts on the surface were all swallowed by the destruction, smashed until it was impossible to recognize them. As the ghosts disappeared, Silas also stopped his magic spells and walked towards Aya.
Aya stood on the edge of the cliff she made, her eyes were looking at the center where an enchantment was already set.
The corner of her lips curled up slightly.
Finally found.
