121. Once Upon a Time in Helford [42/100](2/2)

That city is called the City of Fog.

On the other side of the Old Continent, there is a Crawford Strait.

We went.

us...

Lost.

We were surrounded by monsters before we even entered the outer periphery of the fog capital, like a terrifying tide, we fought to the death, but we were unable to break through the siege.

At that time, everyone was determined to die.

No one will come to support us.

We are too aggressive.

This destruction is all due to our stupidity and arrogance.

But I was wrong.

I'm a bastard who gave up on responsibility, not Fleming.

My brother feels indebted to me.

He immediately began to act after receiving the letter of death from us who sent us back to the new colony.

He and the Witch Hunting Association reached an agreement that I didn't know, in exchange for the strong support of the Witch Hunting Association. Thirteen Witch Hunting Masters, including him, commanded all the bloodlines that the Witch Hunting Association could have collected at that time.

They crossed the strait, entered the Old World, and followed our route, all the way outside the Mist Capital, and they opened our way back.

I felt guilty at the time.

I'd rather die.

Nor do I want to see my brother take risks for me.

But Fleming told me that everything would be OK.

He asked me to leave first, saying that he still had an important task to do."

Speaking of this, Saen clenched his fingers, and the blood was squeezed out by the burned wound. It must have hurt, but the old hunter had no feelings at all. His tone also became low and sharp.

He said:

“I watched Fleming and the other twelve masters, and rushed into the Mist City as the monsters came. I didn’t know what they were going to do.

But that must be dangerous.

I was guarding outside the city and I didn't want to come back alone. I must bring my brother back.

But I didn't wait for that opportunity.

Three days after they entered the Mist Capital, the monsters in the entire Old Continent began to riot. I, who wanted to rush into the city, was forcibly knocked out by my fellow travelers. During the subsequent riots of the monsters, I was taken back to the new colony.

I lost my brother.

The brave ones were like jumping into the sea, and they didn't even splash. They entered the fog capital, but never came out again.

No one knew what they did, but since that year, the monsters of the Old World have never launched an attack on the new colony.

It was also from that year that the dream of the Red Moon, which was once every three months, began to cover the world.

I doubt that it was Fleming and the others who made some noble and terrible sacrifice, trapping the source of the monster to death in the fog capital.

I spent a lot of money to ask the prophets of the Witch Hunting Association to see it.

Fleming should still be alive.

He should still be in the fog capital."

"Maybe it's a large seal."

The wolf demon who was listening to the story outside touched his burned mane melancholy and interrupted:

"If they have enough magic weapons in their hands, like the Sun Emblem, they can indeed arrange a seal array that is powerful enough.

By connecting the continuous spiritual energy in the earth veins, you can defeat the strong with the weak and trap the leader of the monster in the city. This is equivalent to capturing the thief first.

It's a very smart tactic."

"What about Mrs. Samina? What's going on with her change?"

Jiang Xia nodded and asked again.

Old Saren's face was even more painful, he said:

"I wanted to go to the Old Continent to save Fleming, like he saved me, a useless bastard, but before I set out, the Witch Hunter gave me Fleming's letter.

He didn't say what he was going to do.

He just said, "I don't have to feel guilty, even if I don't have my surprise, he will take risks in a few years."

He did this not only for me, but for his newborn daughter, for his beloved Samina, and the Helford family and the entire world.

He asked me to take care of his family.

I can't refuse my brother's plea."

The old hunter became silent.

What happened afterwards must have hurt him.

"I returned to the manor where I was born, and as a butler, I rejoined the Helford family and took care of Little Helya.

And try to avoid meeting Samina.

Not just because of embarrassment.

Moreover, because I can't face her, I can't tell her what happened outside the fog capital.

Samina was also very silent in those years, so she locked herself in the room, rarely went out, and even rarely cared about Helya. At first I just thought Samina could not let go of the pain.

But I was wrong.

A strong woman like Samina will not give in to reality.

She never gave in.

After Fleming left, she was planning a terrible plan. By the time I found out, it was too late and she wanted to save her lover.

For this reason, she would rather fall into hell and become a devil."

Saen glanced at the ashes in his arms, lowered his head and said:

"The dream of the Red Moon every three months is a terrible thing. The power of the origin of the monster will pull everyone into a dream full of malicious intentions.

If you are scared, if you lose your persistence, you will be captured by the demon who rushed out of your dreams.

That is another world.

A dream world shrouded in reality.

Everyone will choose to protect themselves in the Dream of Red Moon and not be attacked by malicious intentions from outside, but Samina did not do so.

It took her eight years and twenty-four times to expose herself to the dream of the Red Moon, which gave birth to the incarnation of nightmare, and successfully separated her soul with her blood abilities.

Through the last dream of the Red Moon, her soul traveled through the dream and went to the fog capital to find Fleming, trying to save Fleming from endless suffering.

When I realized something was wrong and broke into the door, only a body left in the castle was alienated by magic.

A large amount of dark magic escaped from that body.

The products of nightmare are spread throughout the manor, and the nearby forests are upside down.

I could only enable the seal array left by Fleming to protect my wife and children, and then again, like a coward, escape with the young Helya.

But the child was infected by the magic of darkness. I lied to her and said that this was a family genetic disease. In fact, it was very simple to treat her, just burn ash.

What we hunt today is Samina's body.

Remember what I told you before, the witch hunters who died, who were saved by the witch hunters?

Helya has the power to inherit the power of her mother, and only she inherits this power, and only she can protect herself...
