Wizard of All Souls

"... Maud was hit by a troll with a hammer in order to save Xibel, and even, even, almost intact was left behind." Tony's voice choked.

"You've tried your best, and it's not your fault." Denise's eyes were also a little red.

For Tony, Hibel is his secret love, and Maud is his younger brother who yearns for him.

The two followed him to the city of Yamak for adventure, and under his leadership, they went to the edge of the Abian Mountains to exercise.

What should have been a fulfilling and enjoyable adventure, all changed with the sudden appearance of the troll.

"We didn't expect that the troll would appear in such a marginal place." Tony's eyes were unwilling and puzzled, "If it's just a troll, it's no problem for us to retreat unharmed."

At that time, Tony's team consisted of five people.

Tony, Maude, Hibel and two knights from the Spike Adventure Group.

Tony is a middle-level knight, with good strength and no shortage of actual combat, but he has never experienced a life-and-death battle.

Moder's talent is slightly inferior, but he also reached the peak of the quasi-knight two years ago, and he may break through at any time.

Don't look at Xibel as a girl, she is not weak.

A month ago, Xibel also successfully advanced to the rank of quasi-knight, otherwise Tony would not have brought Xibel to Amark City for adventure.

A team of three knights and two quasi-knights is more than enough to protect themselves against a troll.

"Could there be other accidents?" Denise thought about what happened today.

Most of the adventurers in Amark City are scumbags who are on the edge of morality and law, with interests first and desires first.

There are not a few people who hate and envy the Wolf Fang Adventure Group.

It is also very possible that someone under the black hands.

"Another troll appeared, Dobbin Knight and Oye Knight sacrificed themselves and bought us precious time to escape..."

Thinking of what happened next, Tony's expression became ugly again.

"Then why didn't you escape?"

Denise thought of Hibel.

From Tony's words, Denise knew that Maud died to save Hibel.

"I, I, I..." Tony clutched his head in pain, "The troll has appeared!"

"What do you mean? Could it be that the troll killed the two knights, Dobin and Oye, and caught up?" Denise asked.

"No, it's the third troll!" Tony clenched his teeth, "If it wasn't for the third troll...if it wasn't for the death of Hibel and Mord...I was...I abandoned them..."

Tony spoke intermittently, and his expression was almost crazy.

"It's okay, Tony, you are safe now, no one will blame you, you have done your best." Denise gently hugged Tony's head, comforting.

"Woo woo woo..."

Tony wept silently, and the weakest side of the man was exposed in front of the person he loved the most.

Denise glared at Will while reassuring Tony.

Will is also a little guilty.

On the edge of the otherwise safe Abian Mountains, trolls appeared, and there were three of them at once.

It wasn't hard for Will to think of himself.

three days ago.

Will and Denise are still hunting trolls, but after waiting for five days, they still haven't seen the shadow of trolls.

Then all of a sudden found the trolls, or three.

The actions and equipment of the three trolls were different from the previous trolls, and they were obviously out on patrol.

What happened to Tony happened five days ago.

"I don't want to either." Will spread his hands innocently, "Perhaps, the so-called adventure is like this. Accidents may happen at any time. This is not only the joy of adventure, but also the source of pain."

"What do you know!"

Tony stood up angrily, glaring at Will with red eyes.

"Oops!"

Will was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect to say what was in his heart.

"If you haven't seen your relatives and friends die with your own eyes, you won't understand the pain!" Tony grabbed Will's shoulders fiercely, "Don't make sarcastic remarks to me, I will really kill you !"

Tony's body glowed with white light, and his fingers dug into Will's skin.

"...I really don't understand."

Originally, Will planned to refute a few words.

But looking at Tony's angry and sad eyes, Will didn't want to argue with Tony anymore.

The ancients said "summer insects don't talk about ice".

Will finally understood.

Maybe sad, maybe happy.

For you, it is something you will never forget.

And when you say it and want to share the joy and sorrow in your heart with others-"I have no waves in my heart and even want to laugh a little."

This is the truest portrayal of the human heart.

"Shut up if you don't understand!" Tony raised his fist in Will's face.

Will's expressionless expression completely angered Tony.

The anger towards Will for half a year finally broke out completely at this moment.

"People like you, let me die!"

"stop!"

Snapped--

On Tony's cheek, a five-finger red mark appeared.

"Denise?" Tony froze.

"Tony, why did you become like this? You became decadent because of self-blame, and now you want to vent your anger on Will?" Denise looked at Tony in disappointment.

"When did you become so weak? Where is your strength? Where is your sense of responsibility?"

"I……"

Every word Denise said pierced Tony's heart like sharp arrows.

Tony let go of Will, and the anger faded from his face.

Sadness and despair clouded the face again.

"You must cheer up. People who have died and things that have been lost will not come back. We should look forward." Denise encouraged.

"But what can I do?" Tony's eyes were full of confusion.

"Work hard to become stronger, avenge Xibel and Maude, such a simple matter, do you still need me to tell you?" Denise had a look of hatred.

"Revenge?" There was a gleam of light in Tony's eyes, "With me? Can it be done?"

"sure."

"But the weakest troll has the strength of a great knight."

"With your talent, as long as you work hard, you will definitely become a great knight." Denise was full of confidence.

"Even if it's a great knight..."

"One big knight can't do it, then two, three, four... ten! Establish an adventure group, gather adventurers, and become the leader of the largest adventure group in Yamak City!"

"I can really do it?" Tony stared blankly at his hands.

"I believe in you!" Denise nodded heavily.

"But……"

Tony was still hesitating.

"Tony, what you look like is so disappointing." Tony's uncle, the Great Knight March, strode in.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Tony originally thought that March had given up on him.

"Tony, isn't Denise's encouragement and trust enough to regain your confidence? Are you such a weak guy? What do you look like crying in front of the woman you love the most?" March reprimanded.

"...Uncle is right."

Tony lowered his head in shame, recalling how embarrassed he was crying loudly in front of Denise just now, he wanted to die.

"Look at you, you're all skinny like this."

Ma Qi waved his hand, and several attendants came in with food, "It's delicious, eat big mouthfuls, next, I have some good news to tell you, you can't do it if you don't have enough strength."

Tony looked at March suspiciously, and then at Denise.

Think for a while.

As if some important decision had been made, Tony sat down on the table and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

Weep while eating.
