"So, what is 'real sin'?" Maka asked the previous question again. After thinking about it, he added, "What should I do?"

Although the old horseman said a lot of sensational things, he didn't say a word clearly.

But the old centaur just looked at him quietly, and after a long time he said: "The centaur's most reliable ally, Rowena Mila, is guiding you, and fate will tell you the answer... The centaur just wants to know.

, when you face a choice, are you willing to wash away the curse of sin for the centaurs?"

What do you do when a stranger doesn't give you any benefits but wants you to help? Maka feels that she is already facing this damn choice now.

The old centaur mentioned Rowena's name, and it was still that unknown ancient name. Obviously, Rowena Ravenclaw must have been in contact with the ancestors of these centaurs, but it can be said that

It seems difficult to figure out what kind of connection it is.

These horse people seem to have never had the word "speak well" in their dictionary.

"Well...if it doesn't affect me at all, I don't think I would mind helping you out." Maka shrugged.

"You will gain the gratitude of the centaurs from generation to generation..." the old centaur closed his eyes slightly and said weakly.

What he said just now seemed to be an act similar to prophecy. It could be seen that it consumed a lot of his energy. Now his condition looks really bad.

But he still struggled to stand up, fending off the hand stretched out by the centaur warrior who had been guarding him, and struggled to remove an unsheathed long sword from the wall of the shack.

The long sword was four fingers wide and looked very heavy. The old centaur almost fell due to the weight of the sword, but he still managed to drag it to Maka's side.

"Young wizard, please follow me."

He took Maka and walked towards the cave behind the shack at an extremely slow speed, but none of the other centaurs followed.

It seems that centaurs other than Davros should not be allowed to enter this cave.

As soon as he entered the cave, Maka discovered one thing - the entrance to the cave did not seem to be naturally formed. Because the space inside was so huge that under the influence of darkness, the edge could not be seen at all.

Not long after walking in the extremely huge dark cave, the surroundings fell into complete darkness, and Maka had to take out her wand to get some light.

When the tip of the staff lit up with light, he discovered that the ground around him was full of centaurs' bones. He couldn't help but guess that this might be the cemetery of the centaurs tribe.

At this moment, he felt as if he was walking in an endless wilderness. Except for the ground under his feet, there were no stone walls around him. This scene made people feel as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out.

.

After walking forward for more than ten minutes, Maka saw something gray and white vaguely appearing in front of her.

"Fluorescence...maximized!"

As Maka recited the incantation softly, the light on the tip of the staff suddenly brightened, and was immediately thrown forward by him.

According to the preset trajectory, the light group flew past in front, and an extremely huge thing immediately came into Maka's eyes.

"This is...the skeleton of an ancient dragon?"

The light ball passed by in a parabola in mid-air, but it could only illuminate half of this behemoth. The other half was still hidden in the endless darkness, making people marvel at the terrifying size of this ancient behemoth.

Maka walked forward quickly, tapped it lightly with her wand, and then shook her head.

"The magic power in the bones has dissipated completely, and it has completely lost its magical properties..."

However, even so, the hardness of this bone is still comparable to steel. When the wand is struck, it actually makes a crisp "clang" sound.

"Young wizard, please come this way..." the old centaur urged softly.

Materials that have lost their magical properties are not of much use to wizards, but Maka decided that if there is a chance in the future, it would be good to take it out and use it as a decoration.

There is never a word "waste" in his dictionary.

Going deeper, nearly half an hour passed, and Maka finally saw a strange stone building.

It was a circular stone formation made up of many polished stones. In the middle of the stone formation, a smooth stone tablet stood quietly, with some characters seemingly engraved on it.

Because I was standing a little far away and the surrounding space was dim, I couldn't see clearly what was engraved on it.

At this time, without saying a word, the old horse man raised the big sword in his hand with all his strength and inserted it into the groove of a stone. Suddenly, something seemed to be activated, and the stone formation gradually emitted

Threads of blue fluorescence.

With a slight vibration, the inscriptions on the central stone tablet lit up, and blue symbols flew out automatically, spinning around the stone tablet, and gradually rose into the sky above the stone tablet.

"Another kind of rule-like magic text?" Maka looked at it intently, but couldn't tell what kind of magic text it was, at least he had never seen it until now.

Not long after, those magic words kept spinning and floating, and among them, an unstable mysterious symbol appeared out of thin air!

This time Maka recognized it at once. It was a real rule rune, which also existed on the Scroll of Truth. It’s just a pity that most of the rule runes on the Scroll of Truth were too obscure. The one in front of me

He has not yet been able to decipher the meaning of the runes.

"This is a treasure passed down from generation to generation by the centaurs. It represents destiny and change..." The old centaur suddenly spoke, "Remember this rune, and fate will guide you to make the final choice."

"Destiny and change?" Maka frowned, "How should we interpret this?"

Some things are too profound, and even if you know the answer, you may not be able to understand its principle. This is the case with Maka now. He thought about it, and had to keep the old horseman's words in mind for the time being, and wait for later

pondering.

When Maka came out of the cave again, he found that it was already late, and he didn't know if he could make it in time for the Halloween party.

As for the old horseman, he only said that his time was coming and did not come out with Maka.

The new Davros was a strong centaur. He sent Maca out of the centaur tribe and then turned back.

"Young wizard, you will be one of the few wizard friends of the centaurs. When you are confused, the centaurs will be happy to answer your destiny..." Before leaving, the new Davros solemnly promised.
