‘There is no way out, and in the desperate situation we meet a mysterious elf guide.’

‘He led us to search among hundreds of lakes of various shapes, and finally found the lake of Triple Leaf, Tarn Mira, and according to Joffrey’s records, the mysterious ancient tower, the Swift Tower, should stand on the north shore of the lake.’

‘But on that day we only saw fog.’

———————————————

This record once again made Vigofortz recall the unbearable past.

Unconsciously, he touched his deformed and wrinkled left face again.

After the portal in the Seagull Tower was forced to close, he quickly threw the illusion of the Swift Tower behind his head.

Although he knew that the ancient blood originated from elves, he had always been not very concerned about this declining race.

After all, compared to exploring the secrets of the elves, capturing Xili is the key thing in his mind.

At the end of the coup in Sinnied Island six years ago, he chased Xili into the Seagull Tower on Sinnied Island. Just as his hand almost grabbed the girl's collar, the portal that had been sealed by him suddenly opened in front of the two, and after Xili jumped in, a violent explosion occurred.

Although he made a quick decision to release the known highest level defensive magic - Azulie's Shield, he still failed to completely resist the power of the explosion.

His entire left face was torn off by the explosion shock wave, and even his eyes were pulled out.

Wigofortz still feels a faint pain on his face.

It was long before his men followed the traces of Cialis again in Nifgad, in the south.

The girl appeared in the "Hundred Lakes" area mentioned in this book.

He immediately realized that Xili's goal was the legendary Swift Tower, and instructed his thugs to do his best to prevent Xili from escaping into the tower.

However, he finally only heard the screams of his subordinates in the magic microphone.

And the cold voice of the Wild Hunter King:

"Get out of here, mortal. She doesn't belong to you."

Since then, there has been no news about Xili.

Wigofortz continued to look at the book in his hand, trying to pull himself out of that unbearable memory.

‘That mysterious elf waved his hand to command us to be quiet,’

‘At that moment, countless black birds emerged from the lake and flew into the sky.’

‘That’s thousands of swifts.’

‘They hide at the bottom of the lake for winter all winter. They grasp each other’s little claws, gather together, and wait for the arrival of spring at the bottom of the lake.’

‘They are symbols of hope and examples of purity and flawlessness, because they will never fall to the ground and touch the soil and filth of the ground.’

‘The wings of the birds blow away all the mist in a blink of an eye. A wonderful and charming tower suddenly appeared. Its base is made of mist, and the top of the tower is shrouded in light, like the magical northern lights. It has transcended the scope that human wisdom can understand.’

‘We asked the elves if they could get close to the magnificent tower, but the elves chuckled when they heard this.’

‘He told us that the tower is the intersection of the world, the gate of time, and the door of hope and rebirth,’

‘However it is also the most beautiful dream, and only the final messenger can walk into it.’

‘As the elves’ words, the mist emerges again, and the magical scenery disappears from our vision.’

‘The mysterious elf disappeared.’

———————————————

Wigofortz frowned.

At least from the description of this explorer Byverde, the Swift Tower he saw was exactly the same as the illusion he had seen.

He absolutely did not lie.

But only those who are selected can see the Swift Tower. What is the self who has seen the illusion?

Thinking of this, the warlock turned back a few more pages.

———————————————

‘In my limited life, I have been to Centrock many times, and then settled directly in Eisengarde.’

‘Spring goes and autumn comes, summer goes and winter solstice comes. I watch the water surface of Lake Tarn Mira melts again.’

‘I watched Eisengarde’s residents grow fewer and fewer, and eventually abandoned until I was left alone in the entire ancient town.’

‘I’m old, but I’ve never seen that tower again, nor the mysterious elf again.’

———————————————

Wigofortz knew that the ancient town of Eisengarde was abandoned before he was born, and now there are only ruins of large pieces of rock.

The warlock looked up and the bonfire was about to go out.

The thick fog around seemed to be thinner, and a faint light of dawn appeared on the distant horizon.

He continued to read in the faint light, and the last page of the book made him widen his eyes.

———————————————

‘My life is about to come to an end.’

‘Just when I had convinced myself that my youth was nothing more than a dream, the elf who had disappeared for decades appeared before me again.’

‘He showed me an illusion.’

‘I saw darkness and mist, purple-black forests and wrinkled valleys.’

‘I saw three figures sitting around the bonfire. I couldn’t see their faces clearly. I saw only one kneeling, one writing, and one reading.’

‘The elves smiled and told me that hope and prophecy will eventually return, and that the boundless water will reflect the messenger of good omen.’

‘When the elf left, I finally learned his name.’

‘Clivan Espin Ep Koman Marca.’

‘His name is Avarak.’

———————————————

"I remember him..." The voice of the elves came from the extinguished bonfire: "Beverde Buckhusen."

Wigofortz looked up and the sun had risen from the distant horizon, and the dawn had dyed the elf's hair golden: "He was standing here too."

The black-haired mage on the side slowly opened his eyes, stood up with the elf, turned around and looked into the distance.

The fog gradually dissipated, and in the valley at the foot of the mountain, hundreds of lakes reflected the morning sunlight like mirrors.

Among the countless silver foils covered with the earth, there is a small lake in the shape of a clover.

A gray-white tower stands on the shore, and the glazed glass on the top reflects dazzling light.

———————————————

‘I really want to see it again.’

‘Thor Gillie.’
