Candy Wizard and Travel

She was shocked to realize that she had been thinking about the next time, but for many people and many things, there was no next time.

This time is the last time.

After understanding this, a long-lost fear and expectation emerged in her heart, like when she was still a "human".

No matter which ending, it doesn't feel bad.

……

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Clarice is a capable person. When it comes to things other than her mother and friends, her thinking and behavior are like the blade of a sickle - there are some graceful arcs, but not much.

Even for the most important funeral in her life, she maintained a concise style. She just said it yesterday and had it ready today.

Well, maybe it's because she didn't experience only one funeral in her life, so she was familiar with it.

A funeral was being held in the city, and white flowers were hung on buildings throughout the city. People's expressions were not sad, but solemn and blessed.

No one knows that the empty coffin will be buried in the cemetery where the newlywed was last month. There are five tombstones engraved with the same name, and a sixth will be erected today.

And Xi Di was taken to a nearby mountain.

The mountains and forests at night are dangerous, but they shouldn't be as dangerous as these two people.

Just in case, members of the Crescent Society will be on guard around here tonight. It is a routine task. Countries surrounded by forests must conduct regular inspections to make sure there are no traces of monsters. They will only know this.

……

"The moon is pretty good tonight, it's a new moon."

A month ago, this was the moon when Hidi came.

In the forest area rich in magic power, Xi Di's body instinctively called for those particles shining with the color of stars, forming a light band visible to the naked eye around him, strands of strands, and even converging to form a river of light.

"What an exaggeration... Fortunately, I was prepared in advance."

With almost inaudible emotion, Clarice walked over in white mourning clothes. With her gray face, she looked like a newly unearthed corpse in the moonlight. Only her golden eyes were still shining.

She threw down a piece of black particles, which seemed to be the seeds of some plant.

Those particles sprouted in the air, and when they landed on the ground, they had grown into a white flower.

Xidi knows that thing. The association has planted such flowers around the prison where dangerous magicians are imprisoned. They will grow in a magic-rich environment. When they bloom, they will consume a lot of magic power, and then they will set seeds again, and so on. It is a very dangerous thing for magicians.

Fortunately, the wild environment is too cruel for delicate flowers. Usually only a small number of them can survive, and there will be no forbidden zone like the association prison.

The flowing magic disappeared in an instant, and the flowers fell to the ground and took root, swaying quietly in the breeze.

"Huddled together they will wilt quickly, and time is running out, so here we go."

Clarice said nothing, dragging the scythe to draw a complicated magic circle on the ground. Bottle after bottle of magic potion filled the ravine, pulling in the weak magic power that did not cause the flowers to react under the moonlight.

Xidi carefully observed her technique and analyzed the core of it. As he expected, it would be impossible to carry out such a degree of transformation without the full cooperation of the recipient.

Of course he had no intention of cooperating at all.

Clarice's soul will enter his body in advance, activate the magic at the most suitable moment, and transform the body into a female, so that the soul can stop, otherwise no further operations will be possible.

She's coming in.

What follows will be an offensive and defensive battle for the soul.

……

He was groggy, and his consciousness seemed to have sunk into the water.

This feeling is not unfamiliar. Xidi often had such dreams about ten years ago. At that time, he thought it was the impact of ischemia on the body.

Now I feel an inexplicable familiarity.

Following the unknown gravity, his consciousness continued to fall.

……

In the darkness, there were little stars floating in the sky.

This was the fifth time Clarice had seen this scene.

The place where the soul is is a dull darkness, and something like a surging tide slowly flows around, covering her calves. No one knows what the thing is exactly. Clarice guesses that it is to let the soul settle in the body. the material inside.

Like a baby sleeping in amniotic fluid.

Now she has to get through this "amniotic fluid", tear apart the "afterbirth", and see the soul of the baby.

It sounds disgusting, but it's actually quite disgusting.

Feeling the strange fluctuations in the "amniotic fluid" meant that a new consciousness had entered the scene. She was a little surprised. Did it come so quickly?

But it doesn't matter, she is too familiar with this place, and when her friend was "lost", she had probably found the place.

Unfortunately, this is not a confrontation, but a blitzkrieg to achieve tactical goals before the opponent can react.

and--

She raised her hand, magic burning in her palm.

Magic can be used here. The structure of this area is like a different space. As long as the residence of the soul is not destroyed, it doesn't matter.

"Forgive me for being mean."

Clarice turned on the light and walked deeper.

……

It's like having a lucid dream.

But Xidi knew that there was no time for him to dream now.

As strange as waking up from a dream, he opened his eyes again.

Everything around you becomes clear, as it is in reality.

Clarice, where is Clarice...

He wanted to walk, but there was a warm liquid under his feet, roughly up to his knees. He had to wade through such deep water in such a dim environment.

Just when he was in trouble, the dark tide began to surge and split into two in front of him, as if to welcome him.

Xi Di hesitated for a moment, then started running, rushing into the darkness.

He reached into his arms and actually pulled out a wand, but it was not the one given to him by Teacher Fran, but the one he first used. It was simple and old, but this was exactly the wand he had in mind at first. This word brings to mind what it looks like.

"It's been a long time."

The only way to use magic would be to use a wand, but there should be not a drop of it left in his body right now.

should.

"Clap-clack-"

His footsteps echoed in the gloom.

……

"Tsk."

Clarice felt like her time was running out, her soul now flickering.

The body in reality has probably reached the state of returning to the light. Without the support of the body, any soul is like water without a source. After death in reality, once she is chased and fights away from home, she will probably have to experience the first time in her life. fail.

"Got to hurry up, get there, get to that place..."

The dark liquid has spread to the waist, and the water flows downwards, where the soul's residence is in the darkness.

The deeper the water, the closer to the target.

Until her whole body was soaked in it.

There is no need to breathe in this state, but being wrapped in those black liquids will make people relax.

Clarice didn't like that feeling. Relaxation was a luxury word for someone who was tense even in their soul state.

She had been living like this since she was ten years old, and she couldn't imagine relaxing.

But maybe you can think about it after today.

When the black water covered her hair, she saw the warm radiance deep in the languorous warmth.

The abode of the soul has arrived.

……

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Littlepigs, littlepigs, letmecomeon..."

Saying this in her mind with strange emphasis, Clarisse staggered to the door.

The liquid that covers the mouth and nose gives people a suffocating feeling, but the soul does not need to breathe. This is just an illusion. The black water does not exist in the form of liquid.

She didn't care about that now, all Clarice could see was the door.

The material here depends on the knowledge of its owner. This door is like a cage, wrapped with thick iron chains and hung with iron locks. The blue and white light inside can be vaguely seen in the gap.

——I won.

She waved, and the phantom of the scythe solidified in her hand. Waving the weapon in the liquid was a bit sluggish, but her combat experience was rich enough that it was harmless.

"laugh--"

The sickle continued to chop at the sill. If it were pure iron in reality, she would be able to chop it open in one stroke, but in this space, the owner here, Xi Di, seemed to think that such a cage was very solid. , she continued to chop for more than ten times before cutting off the iron chain.

Fortunately, but also regretfully.

This is about to end.

She is starting a new life again.

"squeak--"

The sound of the cage opening was also clearly heard in "Water".

At the last moment, Clarice inevitably relaxed. She thought about what kind of past her friend had and how it could be like this in her memory.

People often imagine that in such a place, they can see all kinds of things about a person's life, like a revolving door. Unfortunately, there is no such thing. Memory is an appendage of the soul and will not appear in such a deep place. If you want to peek into the memory , but it is more convenient in the shallow dream state.

But there is no rush. She has a lot of time to get to know her cherished friends, and there is still a long, long time ahead.

Now we have to quickly gain control of this body and then unleash the magic. We can't relax yet, even if it's just one step away.

Clarisse reached out and opened the door.

"I'm in."

With a sense of ritual, the witch of the new moon opened the door and walked in.

At this time, a flash of white appeared in front of her eyes.

"Xidi?"

She called out her friend's name in a daze.

But that's clearly not the case.

The person in front of her had female features, a good figure, white hair hanging down to her ankles, and a gentle smile. It was much softer than the one she knew - much softer most of the time.

It is a phantom, a fragment of the past.

Clarice doesn't know why this person is here, nor can she understand this way of existence, but existence is existence and will not disappear because of doubts.

A simple judgment, this is probably Xidi's sister or... mother?

Is it because I miss you so much that the phantom of my mother still exists in the depths of my soul?

But in the end, it is just a shadow. Of course, there will only be one place in the depths of the soul. Hidi's consciousness is behind it, and the soul sleeps here, and there will be no one else.

After being startled, Clarice continued.

The phantom-like woman suddenly raised her head, revealing a pair of gentle red eyes with sharp vertical pupils. The illusion of gentleness was torn away in an instant, and Clarisse instantly thought of the monsters she had defeated.

Much trickier than the dead.

Almost in the blink of an eye, a figure appeared in front of her, without magic or weapons. Looking at the slender and tender hands, he hit her belly with a simple straight punch——
