Watching the wind gradually disappearing into the crowd, Maria fell into silence.

She stood for a long time, sighed deeply, and turned around and left.

However, just as she was about to step out of Bonn Town, she suddenly stopped.

The girl clenched her fists slightly, gradually loosened, and then gradually clenched.

Finally, as if she had made up some determination, she turned around and walked towards the town again.

When he arrived at a hotel in the town, Maria took out a few silver coins:

“One night stay.”

...

The next morning.

The sun rises from the east again, and the warm sunlight spreads to the earth.

When the wind appeared again in the west square of the town, Maria carrying her bags was already waiting here.

"Good morning, Maria, it seems you have made up your mind."

The noble elf priest said with a smile.

Mariya's eyes dodged a little, but after hesitating for a moment, she gradually became firmer.

She looked at the elf lady whom she respected calmly and said:

"Ms. Feng, you are right. Maybe... I should indeed learn to face things I have never wanted to face as the teacher said... Moreover, after leaving my hometown for so long, it is also false to say that I don't miss my hometown."

"In addition, I have some things that I want to find out from you, or...inquiry."

"Ms. Feng, have you ever met my teacher? Do you know where he went?"

After listening to the girl's words, Feng sighed softly:

"I did see your teacher, but... he has left this world and gone to find his own way."

"Leave this world?"

Mariya looked a little surprised.

She knew that as early as ten years ago, the plane channels of the Segs World had been opened one after another.

However, since the Church of Life took control of Seges and the world of Seges became part of Goddess Eve, it seems that only believers in life and existences recognized by the goddess can leave this world.

"Yes, he made a deal with the Goddess Crown, and obtained the qualification to leave the world of Seges, and embarked on a journey to the endless void."

"I came here, in addition to seeing with my own eyes the last area of ​​Segs being included in the control of the church, I was also entrusted by him to come and see you."

The wind said.

"Do you know where he went? And... did he say anything to you?"

Maria asked anxiously.

From childhood to adulthood, she has long regarded the legendary wizard Daniel as her closest elder.

After hearing the teacher's news again a few years later, she was extremely surprised.

"He said...he hopes that you can not only live happily, but also find your true self..."

The wind said.

As she said that, she glanced at the girl meaningfully:

"Instead of just imitating him and becoming a respected mage..."

After hearing the wind's words, Maria was silent.

She actually knew it.

Her dreams were shattered from the moment the Mannian Empire was destroyed.

She had wanted to be a great monarch, she had wanted to bring happiness to her people, but... on that night of change, everything was destroyed.

She has been puzzled, she has been sad, she has hated...

However, during her subsequent travels with the teacher, when she gradually understood the true lives of the lower classes, when she gradually understood the darkness of the nobles and the eternal church, the once confusion, sadness, hatred... gradually disappeared.

At the same time, what dissipated was also her former ideal.

Especially after a year of traveling, I saw people celebrating the Great Revolution and celebrating the celebration of beheading the last empress on the border...

‘Maybe… I should be a person who doesn’t exist…’

‘Everyone is celebrating the destruction of Maria II, and no one will be sad about Maria II’s death…’

‘It’s ridiculous to bring happiness to the people…’

Maria does not hate the people, nor does Maria hate the Church of Life.

She hated that young and ignorant self.

She hated the nobles who deceived themselves and regarded themselves as puppets.

From that time on, she had no idea of ​​the meaning of her existence, nor did she know why she lived.

She only knew that she followed the teacher, walked through one place after another, followed the teacher, and learned one magic after another.

Unconsciously, magic has become her spiritual pillar, and being praised by her teacher after learning magic became her happiest thing.

At the same time, before she knew it, she became more and more fond of imitating her teacher's style of conduct.

Study magic and help those in need.

That's what teachers like to do the most.

Mariya no longer knew whether the happiness she gained from doing these things was her own happiness or whether she felt happy after doing the same thing as her teacher.

Too much dependence will lead to loss of oneself.

The essence of dependence is fear and timidity.

She was afraid, she was timid, and she knew that she had not really come out of her past now.

She always understood this.

"Ms. Feng, how can we go?"

After a moment of silence, Maria looked at the wind again.

The wind smiled slightly:

"Of course it's the fastest."

"fly?"

Maria was slightly stunned, and the wind whistled gently. After a while, with a loud dragon roar, a beautiful silver dragon flew from the sky and landed on the ground.

The wind leaped gently, jumped up, then looked at the girl with wide eyes and a shocked face, and stretched out her hand:

"Come on, Maria."

...

This is Mariya's first time riding a dragon.

Although she grew up in the palace with a noble status and had seen many dragon knights, she had never really stepped on the dragon's back.

Especially, it is still such an elegant and noble silver dragon!

Silver Dragon seemed to be quite respectful to Ms. Feng, so respectful that she was almost pleased... Maria felt this way.

This made her feel that the wind was even more mysterious than she thought.

What is the position of the other party... in the elves and the church of life?

She is really curious.

However, when she couldn't help but ask again, Feng still smiled and said the answer that had been repeated again and again:

"I am just an ordinary elves, a priest of the Church of Life."

Unable to find the answer, Maria had to give up.

"Forget it, anyway... I will know sooner or later when I go to the Elf Forest."

She murmured in a low voice.

The dragon flies very fast.

Riding on the back of the silver dragon, the two flew across the forest, walked across the river, crossed the mountains, and crossed the canyon...

The vast Seges continent seems to have become a huge oil painting on the ground, while the prosperous cities, scattered villages and towns, crisscrossing roads and farmlands have become colorful embellishments on the oil paintings.

Maria looked down at the earth excitedly and sang loudly, as if all the boredom accumulated in her heart disappeared at this moment.

"Ms. Feng! Look! What a big lake! This shape... Could it be the Moon Lake? I have always wanted to go and see it, but the teacher never took me!"

"Summit! What a high peak! Ms. Wind! I recognized it! This is the Osos Mountains! I crossed five years ago!"

"The big river! It's the big river! Ms. Wind! Look at it is the Vimur River?!"
