Chapter 4221: Rebellious Protection

The mental influence of the unknown relic still existed, but a small number of slightly older children, after the arm representing "Mother's" authority was defeated, had already vaguely realized that something was wrong here, so Ajielina successfully made the children believe in herself.

Everyone together woke up the small number of children who were in a coma. The children who couldn't be woken up were carried by the slightly older children in turns. Ajielina confirmed that everyone was willing to follow her, and only then looked at the darkness outside the door.

"Are we, going there?"

Little Marika grabbed Ajielina's sleeve. She belonged to the children who had already noticed that something was wrong here.

But Ajielina shook her head. She first checked the things she carried on her body. This trip, in her original cognition, was to meet her mother whom she hadn't seen for a long time, so the only relic on her body was the 【Soul Gem】 that was very convenient to carry, but the star dew, dragon scale amulet, and protective amulet to prevent fire seed invasion given to her by Xia De were all placed in the small bag tied to Ajielina's leg:

"The situation outside the door is a bit wrong, wait a moment."

She tried her best to make herself look very confident to soothe the children's emotions. Afterward, the 【Truth】 among the four core spiritual runes of 【Communication】, 【Truth】, 【King】, and 【Chaos】 was activated by Ajielina. The secret technique she used next originated from the knowledge traded between the Witch Council and the Prophecy Association after the "Battle of Fate." This was a very ancient but also very useful fate-type divine technique:

"Secret Technique · Eye of Truth!"

Faint golden light halo appeared in Ajielina's emerald eyes. Long before becoming a Ringed Ringed Shushi, she had strong inspiration, and after becoming a Ringed Ringed Shushi, Ajielina had already discovered that she also had powerful talent in perception. The self-awakened secret technique 【Chaos Heart Sound】 was the evidence.

And at this moment, following Ajielina's spellcasting, her eyes clearly saw the truth in the darkness outside the door. After a moment of hesitation, Ajielina nodded. She snapped her fingers, and then amidst the children's exclamations, two balls of fire floated around her:

"Must follow me closely, absolutely don't fall behind, I will take you home."

Not including Ajielina herself, there were 13 children here. Ajielina knew she couldn't take good care of everyone, she could only pray that she could take everyone out as soon as possible:

"Steps be lighter, don't make too much noise, I won't walk very fast... Let's go."

She let the fireballs illuminate herself and walked out of the room first. The children then followed her, either in horror or doubt. Although there were more than ten people, because the children were mostly thin and small, they squeezed together without making the team very long.

The faintly visible red butterfly followed them at the end of the team, but except for the smallest child who was a bit confused and held by the older child, no one saw that pair of butterflies.

Ajielina walked at the very front of the team. She hoped that Little Marika, who was closest to her, wouldn't notice the increasingly nervous expression on her face. The gloomy atmosphere in the dim and dilapidated corridor wasn't particularly important; what was important was that Ajielina clearly felt that this space was full of whisper elements everywhere.

"Is it a location-type relic similar to 【House of False People】? How come I'm so unlucky?"

Ajielina originally thought the main body of this unknown relic was just the so-called "Mother." At this moment, realizing the abnormality of the environment, she realized that the situation probably wouldn't be that simple.

However, she still hoped that the current situation was just the powerful relic main body affecting the surrounding environment, rather than the group having already entered the interior of the relic, so she still pretended to be calm and led the children along the corridor to the stairwell, and afterward returned to the first floor from the second floor.

This orphanage that had been abandoned for a long time looked even more terrifying than a haunted house on a rainy day, but Ajielina's calm performance still encouraged the children who were grabbing each other's arms to walk through it together.

No terrifying monsters appeared, nor did "Mother's" voice come. They walked through it safely like this and came to the first floor. When pushing open the building's door, Ajielina was still worried that the outside of the door wasn't the outdoors, but the room where "Mother" was.

But fortunately, when the dim daylight and the dampness of the rainy day broke into the door crack together, Ajielina was sure that the outside of the door was really the real world.

Although it was raining, they still ran toward the courtyard gate in the rain. Ajielina didn't have the ability to control the rain from wetting herself. The little Princess's red hair was already stuck to the sides of her cheeks, but she didn't dare to slack off at all.

She although rushed to the very front, but deliberately slowed down the speed to wait for the children behind, occasionally turning her head to see if anyone fell behind. And just as the last child also crossed the old fountain in the center of the courtyard, Ajielina turned her head back to look at the courtyard gate, she felt her heart was about to jump out of her throat.

A woman wearing a black robe and nearly two meters tall stood at a position less than ten meters away from Ajielina, waiting silently in the sound of the rain. The silent woman's black robe almost merged with this dim world. Ajielina didn't even know if the other party had just appeared or had been here all along, just that she didn't realize it just now.

But Ajielina was very sure that the environment she was in was the real world. Therefore, no matter what the situation was now, as long as she could leave this area, she would probably be able to temporarily escape the relic's influence:

"I'll hold it off, you guys go first."

The children behind her had already stopped because of horror and doubt, Ajielina although felt panicked in her heart but she knew she absolutely couldn't run away. The four-ringed fate ring behind her appeared completely. This time there was no sister or Xia De's help. Ajielina realized in the second before performing spellcasting that she finally ushered in the day when she had to face life alone:

"Fireball Spell · Chaos Echo!"

This was not just using 【Chaos Echo】 to enhance the power of the basic spell. The water vapor that existed in the environment on a rainy day came into contact with the three fireballs summoned by Ajielina. While water and fire consumed each other, the power of chaos fused the two together.

With the level of a low-ring Ringed Shushi, the three fireballs flying forward transformed into extremely unstable chaotic colors, and afterward exploded with a bang in the rain.

But that explosion sound only lasted for less than half a second before disappearing abruptly. Ajielina looked at the tall woman with an ugly face who made a gesture of opening her arms. It actively embraced Ajielina's attack, so Ajielina's attack disappeared.

The tall figure didn't speak, but Ajielina seemed to hear someone calling her name, someone looking forward to hugging her.

Seeing Ajielina didn't move, that tall figure kept the posture of opening its arms and stepped toward Ajielina. Ajielina still wanted to cast a spell, but discovered that she didn't know when her whole body had become stiff and unable to move.

The spirit in the soul surged wanting to make the body return to normal, but "Mother's" powerful influence still made Ajielina unable to move.

However, Ajielina felt a slight pulling force from behind:

"Run, it's coming."

That was Little Marika, who was trembling, pulling Ajielina's sleeve, and then that girl fell straight down. Not only her, Ajielina heard a series of sounds of falling to the ground from behind her. She knew those children who escaped with her could no longer continue forward.

Unless she defeated the "Mother" in front of her, she couldn't save anyone.

The powerlessness of her own weakness, and the ambition to desire stronger power, sprouted at this moment. The spiral of fear and unwillingness made the heart feel a stinging pain different from the past, and accompanied by the increasingly closer tall figure, under the influence of whisper elements, the power accumulated from learning in the past week took shape in this sound of rain—

【Love and protection originate from the order of the chaotic heart. When strange love gives you a gift, is that love, or just pale malice? The rebellious resister is not always a stubborn villain.】

Amidst the rotation of the fate ring, the black-iron-colored spiritual light gathered in one place, and before that tall figure touched Ajielina, it engraved a new spiritual rune.

【Ajielina, you engraved the Black-Iron Whisper Spiritual Rune - Protection.】

【Ajielina, you obtained the Secret Technique - Rebellious Protection: Resist damage, while simultaneously endowing the source of damage with an attack attribute opposite to the damage.】

In the moment before that tall figure wearing a black robe touched Ajielina, it seemed to touch the invisible barrier in front of Ajielina.

The malicious attack that should have devoured all vitality was absorbed by the power constructed by the black-iron rune. That malicious intent belonging to "Mother"—turbulent, gloomy, and destructive—was instantly inverted and reshaped into the purest power of protection.

Pure white light constructed another figure full of maternal love, and afterward, the invisible impact hit that tall black shadow accurately. "Mother's" figure stalled in the rain, and afterward turned into black mist and was completely washed away by the white light of order.

The whisper elements with malicious intent gradually dissipated, and Ajielina, who had over-cast the spell, couldn't care about being excited that she had defeated a powerful enemy. She stumbled and fell forward, falling into a warm embrace.

This embrace didn't make her feel cold at all. Blonde hair and wet red hair came into contact together. Dorothy's hand was placed on Ajielina's back helping her straighten out the somewhat chaotic spirit. Ajielina, who wanted to cry, could feel that the soul within the writer's shell was clearly her own sister.

The elements of the malicious whispers gradually dissipated, and the over-casting A Jieli Na could not care about the excitement of having defeated a powerful opponent. She stumbled and fell forward, falling into a warm embrace.

This embrace did not make her feel cold at all; the blonde hair and the wet red hair came into contact. Duo Luo Qian's hand was placed on A Jieli Na's back to help her smooth out the somewhat chaotic Qi. A Jieli Na, who wanted to cry, could feel that the soul within Miss Writer's shell was clearly her own sister.
