At the edge of the Sa’alla Forest, at the end of the Boca Plain, there was already a mess at this time. The ground was shattered by the aftermath of the battle between the two, and a crack spreading for thousands of kilometers penetrated, but at the center of the explosion, listen. Luo Ya, who spoke the words of the white-haired old man, couldn't help but his eyes widened.
qualified? What does that mean?
Is this what test is this? No, there is no reason. The Nishizawa family and the Acate family have no personal relationship. This is something that Roja, who has been in charge of the family for a long time, can be sure. Besides, the two sides have different countries. Why is a strong man who became famous hundreds of years ago? Will come to give him a test?
Wait, hundreds of years ago?
Luo Ya, who frowned, opened his eyes slightly, feeling as if he had caught something, and as if feeling what the young man was thinking, the white-haired old man also spoke again.
"It seems that you have guessed something, yes, as you think, the reason for everything is Roy Acate, he hasn't been said outside for almost a hundred years, it's really nostalgic."
"..."
The white-haired old man said so, his gaze fell on Roja, as if he wanted to see someone’s shadow from the young man. On the other hand, Roja did not choose to immediately accept Leyton’s sudden explanation, but rather He narrowed his eyes suspiciously.
Roy Akat, who counts time is indeed a figure in Layton’s active era, but Roy’s reputation was so great that it shouldn’t be unusual to know him. In addition, he has long since disappeared. Yes, but in fact, old people cannot verify whether they are friends or enemies.
On the other hand, under the control of Roja, the dusk-colored wind haze has spread and surrounded the white-haired old man, although because Layton obviously has not reached the point of old and weak, the "breath of eclipse" The effect should not be so good, but even so it is already quite threatening.
No one is not afraid of aging, especially for the elderly of several hundred years old, so is this rhetoric a countermeasure?
Obviously, the black-haired boy is not a person who believes in others, especially when the enemy is in battle, but considering that Roy and others leave very little information, if it is true, it would be a great opportunity to miss this opportunity. Loss......
After thinking for a while, the black-haired boy stared at Leyton and spoke calmly:
"Roy Akat, that was indeed my ancestor, but Layton, what does he have to do with you?"
"Relationship? Strictly speaking, it is a close friend who can't put the relationship on the face."
"what?"
"At that time a few hundred years ago, the relationship between our two countries was even more tense than it is now. As the heirs of the great nobles of each other's countries, we naturally cannot have a relationship in public, but fortunately, we are still classmates and privately. There are many opportunities to meet."
The white-haired old man said so, with a look of memory in his face, but Luo Ya was not shaken by these words, he looked at the old man's eyes and spoke again:
"A good friend? But you didn't keep your hand just now, did you? And this war, can you still use Roy to explain it?"
"No, this war is just a deal between the Aqiman family and the Nishizawa family. I just took this opportunity to see you. As for why I didn't keep my hands, it's very simple, because it is Roy's request."
Looking at the young man who was still exceptionally vigilant, the white-haired old man was not angry. In fact, he had already expected this to happen, but fortunately, there were some familiar things about Roja that could prove his words.
"The one in your hand is the Ring of Black Rose? So it seems that you should have seen him in the secret realm, right?"
"!"
Looking at the black ring on the young man's hand, the white-haired old man said so in nostalgia, and when he heard Leyton's words, Roja's face was slightly loosened for the first time.
The Ring of Black Rose, this ring passed down from Astrid is not a public thing, few people know its existence, and Roy hid part of his consciousness in the ring, waiting for his descendants to arrive. This kind of thing is impossible to tell outsiders of cheating.
"Don't be surprised. If you don't believe me, I can even tell the attack pattern of the double. After all, it was me who was responsible for testing the double."
The white-haired old man sighed as he recalled the hard fight, and faintly talked about the fighting methods of the guardian stand-in, and after matching the old man’s words with the memory, Luo Ya finally let go of his guard, but he had doubts in his heart. It's more.
"That's it, Mr. Layton, I have to admit that you are indeed connected to my ancestors, but what exactly is Roy's entrustment that you said back then? Why do you use this method?"
The curse power on the black-haired young man did not decrease at all, and he asked the most critical question, and when he heard Loya's words, the white-haired old man's face also became slightly serious.
"It's very simple, because Roy has some things in my place, and if you want to take them away, you must have enough strength. In fact, it is the minimum standard to injure me, but if we continue to fight, I am afraid that we will be between It's a battle of life and death."
Looking at the twilight wind roaring in the nearby space, the white-haired old man raised his eyebrows and said, while Roja couldn't help but fell silent. In fact, even now, Roja doesn't think he has the possibility of defeating Source Level 1. Of course , If you want Roja to lose, then Layton will inevitably pay a heavy price.
However, Roy had things kept in Leighton’s place and placed the items in the Austin Empire. This was indeed an unexpected behavior. In fact, after Roy’s disappearance, the Acate’s database was burned down in an accident. If you look at it this way, Roy might have expected this.
The black-haired young man thought silently, but before he waited to ask the old man a question, a faint light suddenly flashed around him. The next moment the silver-haired girl suddenly appeared in the moonlight and hugged Luo Ya's body from behind.
"Brother!"
"Alyssa?"
The silver-haired girl who hugged the boy with tears on her face, and a little bit of light appeared on her body, and the endless life energy entered Roja's body. With the help of Alisa, the boy's spirit was refreshed, and the injury in her body quickly recovered. After the treatment, the girl's red eyes looked at the enemy in front, looking at the villain.
"..."
Looking at the young girl hugging each other, Layton twitched his cheeks and did not move, but as the girl looked at each other, Layton's eyes looking at Alisa gradually became weird.
Wait, why does this curse power have a familiar feeling inexplicably?
The white-haired old man looked at the silver-haired and red-eyed girl thinking like this, not knowing where this feeling came from. On the other hand, Alisa’s breathing was swift, and the huge pressure made the body of only a source-level 4 girl. She almost lost her ability to move, and it was only then that the girl didn't understand what is Source Level 1, and at the same time she regretted her recklessness.
No, don't say help if this continues, isn't it a burden?
The anxious Alisha wanted to do something, but before she could mobilize her curse to struggle, a hand suddenly appeared on her shoulder.
"It's okay, Alisa, it's over."
"Hey? Brother sir?"
In front of the silver-haired girl, Roja said so to comfort, and the white-haired old man on the other side also withdrew his aura. The dark clouds rolling in the sky had begun to dissipate at some point, and the smoke and dust on the ground had gradually fallen, just like tonight’s The battle came to an end.
"Then the explanation is over, it's time for the handover."
The sturdy old man looked at the cuddling young girl in front of him and shook his head, leaned his hands into his arms and touched the clothes. Soon after, he took out a simple box, and Luo Ya stepped forward after thinking for a moment. Take it carefully one step at a time.
"This is what that person entrusted to me. Now you should be able to hold it."
"Hold it? That means someone snatched it?"
"Yes, he once said that this thing is very important and it concerns the future of your family."
"!"
Hearing the words of the old man, the black-haired boy's golden pupils couldn't help shrinking. The future of the family, the level of this word is too high. The Akat family has existed for thousands of years since the Second Age, under the aegis of the Holy See. The wings were already full, and it was hard for Roja to imagine anything that could affect such a family.
With excitement and curiosity, the black-haired boy opened the box in front of Layton, and unexpected objects also appeared in front of him.
-------------------------------------------------- -
One night later, when the morning sun shined on the earth again, the camp of Akat led the army in the forest was noisy, and the reinforcements led by Cynthia and others arrived as scheduled. However, what puzzled this dusty team was the camp at this time. The inner atmosphere is not the tension in the face of a powerful enemy, but the excitement and joy of the rest of the day.
After a little inquiries, Cynthia and the others quickly learned what happened, and until this time, everyone finally understood how the huge rift that runs through the plain came from, and how the forest like a typhoon came into being.
It was just the traces of two people fighting, which was as terrifying as a natural disaster. The strength of Source Level 1 made Rodney and others secretly shocked, and for Roja, who was able to block Layton, everyone respected them from the bottom of their hearts.
The soldiers who had experienced many battles cast their awe at the command post where Roja was resting, while in the camp, the black-haired boy stayed up all night, thinking and remembering his relationship with Layton after that tragic battle. On the table in front of him, the simple box has been opened, and inside is a crystal clear crystal.
Yes, this crystal is an item that the white-haired old man has kept personally for many years. It is also a legendary thing related to the destiny of the Acate family. It is only different from ordinary crystals in that it contains a beautifully shaped ring at the center.
It is an exquisite ring of gold and blue intertwined with a different kind of brilliance. In terms of its shape, it is different from any popular style today. Even the material Luo Ya has not seen much. For this item, Although Layton didn't know the details, he had heard Roy's evaluation.
"I remember that Roy did say that this is something that has been passed down from generation to generation by the awakened of the Akat family."
"Passing on from generation to generation? The Awakened?"
When Roy described this item in this way, the black-haired boy's face suddenly became more serious. For thousands of years, there were only three awakened persons in the Acate family besides Roja, even from the third era. From the beginning, it has been treasured since more than 700 years ago when Vincent was there.
Facing such an important thing, Luo Ya naturally wanted to observe it, but what he didn't expect was that when his hand touched the crystal, the crystal under the moonlight suddenly emitted a faint light.
"Huh? This is?"
"It should only be a reaction to yours, when I touched it, nothing like this happened."
Regarding Roja’s question, Layton shook his head and said that he did not know it. On the other hand, the black-haired teenager felt a strange connection. Looking at the ring in the crystal, Roja intuitively understood one thing, that is This thing may be a catalyst for historical fragments.
At the moment he was aware of this, Luo Ya immediately raised his hand to cut off the connection, and then looked at the crystal for a while with lingering fears. There is no doubt that the catalyst that can be passed down by generations will never be a safe journey, and now Roja's physical condition is worse than ever.
This crystal looks like a spacer in this way, but what kind of historical fragment is it that will be so carefully protected and passed on?
Roja naturally couldn't find the answer to this question, but according to Layton, let alone Roja, even its last owner Roy never seemed to have opened the crystal seal.
Facing Layton’s almost certain words, Roja had doubts for a while. Although the old man in front of him claimed to be Roy’s best friend, he knew too much, and after the teenager’s question, Layton finally said The truth is that Layton and Roy are not only classmates, but also companions traveling together.
Traveling around with family and friends to increase knowledge, this was a very popular practice among the nobles in that era, and Roy and Layton were such a combination back then. After graduation, the two embarked on a parade journey, and Roy also borrowed Take this opportunity to look around for clues to the Akat home and the Twilight Sage Association that had been destroyed at that time.
"This item is one of Roy's harvests that year. It seems to have been found after receiving news from an ancient treant, so I can be sure that he has never used it."
Leyton said this with a serious face, as if he was in awe of the ancient tree people, but Roja twitched his cheeks, thinking of a certain alcoholic in his heart naturally, and at the same time completely let go of his doubts about Leyton.
After hearing about the relationship between the two, the boy couldn't wait to ask the truth about Roy's disappearance, but Layton couldn't answer this question.
According to Layton, these things were given to him by Roy at the end of the journey. Afterwards, Roy's whereabouts were unclear, but until now, Layton didn't seem to think Roy would die.
"That person's life-saving skills are beyond your imagination. I don't think he will die easily."
The white-haired old man said so, with a slightly stubborn expression on his face, as if he was an old man who was unwilling to accept the facts, but for Roya, who had fought Roy before, Leyton's words were not unreasonable.
If Roja is the awakened person of the Akat family who tends to attack, Roy is a full-point defense and recovery, a model of immortality, but such a guy actually disappeared shortly after separating from his friends. Now, where did he go? Or what do you want to do?
Roya was silent for a moment, asking about Roy's purpose at the time, but the results obtained were very speechless.
According to Layton, Roy on the journey has been thinking about one thing, that is... how to get to the princess of the Austin Empire, this is why Layton dare not say that the two are friends. One, but according to Layton, Roy did not do this because he fell in love with the princess of the Austin Empire at first sight, but to obtain the blood of the Aqiman family.
"Your ancestor, uh, the relationship between men and women is a bit messy, but I don’t know why, he seems to think that marriage with the Aqiman clan is the key to family revitalization, but in that era, this kind of thing was almost impossible. of."
After considering it for a long time, the gray-haired old man gave such an explanation, as if he recalled the actions of his once close friends. At this time, Leyton's face was slightly convulsed and his expression was very unnatural, and Luo Ya nodded and turned back. With a face of understanding.
I know I know, old scumbag.
Recalling Roy's words, if it weren't because of blood relationship, the teenager would want to keep his mouth phlegm before leaving, but as the so-called one thing, one thing, Roja naturally remembered the task Roy gave him.
It seems that this is really an epic task that has not been completed for hundreds of years, but the situation of Roja’s generation is different. Lilian is not just a woman of the Aqiman family. , Or Roya's blood relative, this... is really a bit taboo and irritating.
Thinking of the young man here rubbing his temples and sighing. After thinking about it for a moment, he still didn’t say anything about Roy’s ancestral mission. He wasn’t worried about Layton. After all, Layton knows the old scumbag. What Roja really worried about Alisa behind.
From the moment I talked about the women of the Aqiman family, the atmosphere of the silver-white girl's whole body is not right, and the hands holding Roya's body are also tighter. For Roya, the ancestors are I really didn't want to be known by the girl about the scumbag + the old man. In desperation, Roja could only change the subject and ask Roy's enemies.
Since he could not find a clue to Roy, starting with the enemy and taking the reverse route seemed a good choice, but what he didn't expect was that Layton said a familiar word.
"Among Roy's enemies, the believers of the savior are the most dangerous. Those fallen are also the main force who want to **** the crystal. I have stayed away from the world for so many years, and one of the reasons is to avoid them."
"...That's it."
After listening to Layton's words, Roja couldn't help but feel guilty. Unexpectedly, in order to keep the Acate family heirlooms in his hand, Layton actually paid such a high price, and after thinking about it for a while, the young man will also take his own time. Encounter [collector] The experience of surviving near death tells you.
Following Roja’s narration, the silver-haired girl behind her arms tightened once again while holding the young man’s arms, while the white-haired old man’s complexion became serious for the first time after hesitating for a while, and he spoke his own inference. .
"No, they might be eyeing you."
