Chapter 2866 - 1358: Everyone (3)

The first to leave was Ned, followed by Yina, Saracha, and Crab.

Then—

"Master Rin Winter."

The orc man walking last suddenly halted, turned his head to Yi Dong, who was still gazing out from the bedside with arms crossed, and said: "I have a question..."

"Hmm?"

Yi Dong was initially taken aback, then nodded slightly: "If it’s just ’one’ question, time is limited."

"Despite not having a sharp mind, I often dream—dream of our last days."

Crab licked the corner of his lips, went silent for about a second, and said calmly: "But lately, the people and things in my dreams haven’t been connecting, as if something is missing."

Yi Dong narrowed her eyes slightly and said softly: "That’s a statement, not a question."

"You are the one who resurrected me, do you think... it’s merely my illusion?"

So, Crab asked his question.

"No."

Yi Dong shook her head, sighed softly: "But..."

"No need, you just said, time is precious."

Crab proactively interrupted Yi Dong, resumed his steps towards the door, and without turning back, said: "Please don’t worry, I know what I need to do. They are smarter than me; they surely know too."

"..."

...

Time rewinds to now

"Sister Yina?"

As the face that had appeared countless times in her dreams, yet always froze in a black-and-white frame, simultaneously appears in the vision of the three {Eye of the Mage}, Double Leaf instinctively called out softly, though amid the elemental storm raging crazily around, no one could hear her call.

Even if the hair and skin color had changed from the person in her memory, as one of the first ’face-to-face friends’ in her life, Double Leaf still recognized the girl who was drawing a longbow and shooting arrow after arrow at her with a serious expression.

Then—

As if the air in her lungs was suddenly squeezed out, the other three figures, which had haunted her dreams and lingered in her mind for so long, appeared in her field of vision expectedly yet unexpectedly.

"Crab?"

The black-skinned orc, always bearing a foolish look and actually foolish, who never let go of the attacker’s boot until the last moment, is now striding rapidly towards her, his small eyes still appearing not very intelligent.

"Saracha?"

Beside the orc, a nimble figure is gliding. Of course, the so-called ’nimble’ is relative; in the vision of the {Eye of the Mage}, which plays in slow motion, Double Leaf sees the lizardman Martial Monk who once slept peacefully in a spiral of fresh blood and bought others three minutes with his life.

"Captain Ned?"

Behind them, there is a man who spent half a lifetime for the innocent, and though initially one of the sparks, he fell in the dawn’s deepest and most despairing darkness—a catalyst for the demise of the Marshall family, found by Double Leaf when almost no part of his skin was intact. This middle-aged man is now charging at her, expressionless, with a thin shield and a ridiculous longsword.

The magical storm calmed down.

The girl who hadn’t stopped her brain’s operation for half a year suddenly feels it go blank at this instant.

"Everyone... why?"
