Chapter 1977

~11 min read 2,165 words

Standing there looking at the outsider she had missed for many years, the young Red Dragon girl's black leather shoes were joined together, and the tail behind her continued to tap the ground gently. After finishing the current situation, she opened her arms to Xia De again.

After Xia De understood and gave her a hug, Fiona took a deep breath with a nervous mood, and then satisfiedly smelled the mother dragon smell belonging to herself on Xia De, which was not washed away by the smell of other peers.

This meant that there were no other dragon girls around him.

She wanted to do something in this council of future dreams, and also wanted to ask if he was living well now, but she also knew that this meeting would not last long:

"Xia De, you lie here and sleep for a while, I'll go call the teachers."

"But..."

"Don't worry, the ritual is still very stable now. Sleep, we'll see you in a while. Sleep, Xia De..."

Everything in front of her became blurred again. The consciousness that had just recovered was like falling into the abyss again. Fiona's figure standing beside her became blurred. She seemed to be reaching out to touch his face, but Xia De could no longer distinguish.

Reached out his arm and placed it on the round table in front of him, and then he fell into sleep again.

This sleep was quite short. The fragrance mixed with violets and roses soon guided his consciousness to break away from the chaos again.

That fresh and elegant flower fragrance was really good to smell, not only the comfort and reassuring smell that was refreshing, but even like the gentle moonlight at night...

He heard "her" laughter, and then woke up suddenly, not letting his chaotic thoughts continue to extend.

Sitting up suddenly like having a nightmare, and then seeing the fair hand wearing a gold ring shaking in front of him:

"Can you see how many fingers this is?"

Because he got up too violently, the scene in front of him was still a bit blurred, but Xia De could at least see clearly that the gold ring was the symbol of the council archmage, and the fingers were two:

"Two."

"Count with me, one two three."

"One two three."

While repeating, he turned his head to look at the source of the perfume smell mixed with violets and roses, and then met a pair of golden eyes carrying a gentle smile.

In an instant, he held his breath completely. Even if he only saw the eyes and didn't look at the face carefully, but when the soul in the gentle eyes looked at him, he understood who was speaking beside him:

"Miss Feilianna!"

The archmage as beautiful as a violet, with a smiling expression on her face, bent down slightly and looked at Xia De who had just raised his head.

Wearing a gorgeous purple long skirt, there was a silver earring on the right ear. The five senses were three-dimensional, and the golden hair was not simply tied up this time, but was coiled into a highly exquisite bun. The soft golden hair was coiled from the side of the head, and fixed with a hairpin dotted with broken diamonds and rubies.

Besides that hairpin, the hair hanging behind the ears was also decorated with ribbons. This hairstyle suitable for formal occasions fully displayed the nobility, intellect, and elegance of Miss Mana Feilianna.

Although she met Miss Feilianna in a hurry when sending Fiona back at the end of "Eternal Night City", looking at each other at such a close distance seemed to be in the distant past, by the campfire in the Thousand Tree Forest.

Thoughts seemed to return to the past, and Xia De didn't know what to say for a while. He looked at her, and she also looked at him with a smile. The two looked at each other like this until a coughing sound came from the side.

Xia De and Miss Feilianna both turned to look at Fiona. The Red Dragon girl pointed at herself suspiciously, and then shook her head in panic.

Looking at the side again, Miss Blaney Olandon, while fiddling with the hair hanging by her ear with her fingers, reminded:

"Teacher, Xia De's connection time is not much this time."

The Yellow Moon Witch, who hadn't been seen for a long time, was still wearing a green long skirt with an elven style. Her yellow long hair was tied up, and on the pointed ears symbolizing elven blood, there were yellow and silver crescent-shaped earrings respectively. She also nodded to Xia De with a smile, and there were equally complex meanings in her eyes.

Miss Feilianna glanced at her student, nodded gently, and reached out her right hand to Xia De. After Xia De held her hand, she pulled Xia De up directly from the seat:

"Long time no see, Xia De."

The voice was calm but gentle:

"My student, this time, what doubts do you have that you want me to answer?"

The golden eyes were still looking at Xia De, and she was still holding Xia De's hand. From the Thousand Tree Forest to the Dead Valley to the Eternal Night City, Miss Feilianna didn't seem to have changed at all. The exquisite face seemed to have permanently stopped at a certain moment, and the fair skin was more than that of a young unicorn...

【Your time is not much.】

"Teacher."

Xia De came back to his senses. Although he had expected that it might succeed, when he really saw Miss Feilianna, the throbbing and indescribable emotions in his heart still made him unable to speak for a while.

"I know, I know everything. Without me by your side, the last road of the Sixth Era should not be easy to walk, right?"

She smiled gently, as if she already knew the hardships Xia De encountered in the Sixth Era:

"It's okay, it's all okay, I've been waiting for you."

Saying this, she reached out and hugged Xia De gently.

Although the words seemed to be comforting the student, in the eyes of Fiona and Miss Olandon on the side, this didn't look like comforting the student at all.

Fiona stood there with her legs together under her skirt, but the tail swinging back and forth explained her mood. She looked at her teacher again, so the Moon Witch asked "inappropriately" again:

"Xia De, we were able to meet successfully this time, your active connection on that side is the most important reason, but I think this should not be replicable. Do you have any urgent matters to ask us?"

Miss Feilianna also let go of Xia De:

"Yes, what did you encounter this time?"

Xia De also tried his best to restrain the excitement at this moment and said to the two archmages:

"I heard some news in the Sixth Era, news about the end of the world."

Fiona was a bit dazed, Miss Olandon looked at her teacher with concern, but the blonde witch nodded slightly, and the soft expression didn't change:

"Since you already know this news, then we can also tell you some things we know: Yes, the Sixth Era, theoretically facing the end of the world."

"But why?"

"The world before the First Era is the time of the old days. After the First Era, it is the afterglow before the end of the world. The gods left in the Second Era to support the collapsing world, the Third Era's rule collapse gave birth to terrible things like evil spirits and demons, the Fourth Era's civilization completely collapsed, the era of darkness and chaos arrived, the Fifth Era's present, our present..."

She shook her head gently at Xia De:

"Do you really think it is correct that only women can become superhumans by relying on the power of the ancient god-Chaos Witch?"

Fiona showed a sudden realization expression. She seemed to be hearing this for the first time.

Xia De had heard similar expressions from Laplace Klein Howard, but he still wanted to confirm:

"So, the end of the world is really..."

"Yes, everything has an end. The world that lasted for hundreds of millions of years before the First Era will also have the moment of falling curtain. Since the Second Era, it is the stage of the curtain falling."

Miss Olandon said, pursing her lips gently:

"These things, originally we couldn't tell you directly. But you are stronger now, and you have already obtained the truth yourself. I am sorry, Xia De, but this is the fact."

Even if the outsider was already prepared, he still couldn't catch his breath:

"So this is really not caused by external forces, is it really just because there is a beginning, so there is an end?"

So he, this outsider, was actually sitting under the stage when the grand drama was performed to the end. But he couldn't let the performance on this stage end, otherwise he, this audience under the stage, sitting alone in the auditorium after the curtain closed, would have no meaning.

"Teacher."

Fiona on the side raised her hand to speak. Seeing that both teachers looked at her, she asked softly:

"Thirteen ancient gods also cannot..."

"There is a beginning, there will be an end, even the gods who created everything will witness the end together with the world."

Miss Feilianna knew what she wanted to ask. After answering Fiona's question, she continued to say to Xia De:

"But although the end of the world cannot be reversed, it can be delayed. From the Second Era to the present Fifth Era, although the world's situation is becoming worse and worse, civilization still exists, wisdom is still multiplying, and the world is still supporting everything. Many people have done many things, otherwise you and us would not be able to stand here and talk about these. As for the Sixth Era you are in, the situation is indeed worse than the previous eras, and... the time of the Sixth Era is not right."

Fiona raised her hand to speak again:

"Yes, if Xia De was only separated from us by one era, no matter how difficult it was, he could always find a way to communicate with him. But Xia De and us, it seems that the long river of time is continuous, but in fact, every time I try to communicate with the next era, I feel that the long river of time seems to have circled several times before continuing to move forward. We look close, but actually very far away."

"It's not circling several times, there are at least six ruins."

Xia De said, but didn't intend to explain Luweiya's destruction of time. That was not only Luweiya's secret, but more importantly, that was the future for the ladies of the Fifth Era. And informing them of such secret things in the future was an extremely dangerous move in the rules of time.

But Miss Feilianna seemed to have understood, and her beautiful eyebrows frowned slightly:

"So that's how it is. The situation is even worse than expected. There is not much you can do in the future."

"A god once mentioned to me that there will be no Seventh Era... Miss Feilianna, what else can we do?"

Xia De asked immediately, this is the most critical question. Laplace Klein Howard's divination talent was so outstanding, but he only guessed the past and failed to find the right path to the future. If the end of the world is bound to come, then accept the facts and prepare. Miss Feilianna also said that generations of people in the past were delaying the inevitable end.

"Saying there is not much, but actually there is a lot. Xia De, I am very sure that besides you, besides us in the Fifth Era, there are more people trying to fight against the end of the world, or at least find a way to live in the end of the world. What you can do, I cannot tell you all. It's not that I can't say it, but on one hand, we in the Fifth Era are still studying it, and on the other hand, you are not strong enough."

When he first met Miss Feilianna and Miss Olandon in the Thousand Tree Forest, Xia De was at the second ring, and now he is at the seventh ring. But if compared with the demigod witch and the thirteenth-tier witch, this is indeed far from enough:

"Yes, teacher. I will seize the time to improve my strength. So is there anything I can do now?"

"Yes."

The beautiful and intellectual blonde archmage knocked on the table and looked at her student with some unbearable heart:

"This matter you are actually doing, and you are doing it quite well, otherwise you couldn't see us here—you must master the Witch Council."
