Chapter 40 He, his friends, and the world are free...
There was no sound, just a frozen silence.
Vifiya woke up and saw a dim scene in front of her eyes. Colorful and light smoke slowly floated in the air and caressed her face.
She stood up subconsciously and saw a huge transparent bubble hanging in the center, the most conspicuous place, with smoke circling around the bubble.
Vifiya opened her eyes slightly and took a step without thinking. Just after taking the first step, she stopped suddenly, lowered her head to look at her feet, and found that she was not really stepping on the solid ground, but was suspended in the air.
Without stopping, she walked towards the bubble in front of her. The closer she got, the clearer she could see what was inside the bubble.
It was a dragon. Even though it was curled up like a human fetus, it looked exactly like the one recorded in the Imperial Library.
Goddess Lehomi agreed to her request much faster than she had imagined.
Will there be the clue she wants here?
Vifiya raised her hand and touched the bubble carefully. She was not repulsed. The bubble under her fingertips was warm and the fine lines were delicate.
Without disturbing the dragon, she began to search the surroundings, but found nothing.
There was no scenery around, only the smoke and the dragon in the center.
She was surprised to find that although she had expended a lot of energy, she still felt energetic and not tired at all.
Time here seems to stand still, and nothing changes.
No, there are still dragons.
The dragon's body was getting smaller and smaller, and the bubble was also shrinking slowly.
It was unknown how much time had passed, not even Vifiya could tell.
During this time, she tried to find the boundary of this place, but every time she approached a point, when her intuition told her that she was almost there, she would be sent back.
After repeating this for more than twenty times, Vifiya finally stopped, shifted her gaze away from the bubble that was now only the size of a fist, and looked up at the so-called sky here. Was it really the sky?
Suddenly, the smoke that had been drifting slowly seemed to be guided by something and rushed straight into the bubble quickly.
But in an instant, all the smoke disappeared.
Only then could Vifiya see clearly that this place was a huge egg!
Densely packed ancient runes filled the eggshell, emitting dazzling golden light. Then the runes floated out, replacing the place where the smoke had once floated, and passed through the bubble.
No, not through, but into.
In a short while, the runes disappeared like smoke.
Vifiya stood there, staring at the bubble that could faintly be seen with mysterious golden lines.
The bubble suddenly peeled off.
Vifiya was surprised. There was not the dragon inside as she had imagined, but a red heart with extreme vitality.
Its surface is covered with faint golden lines, and with every beat, the heart, originally the size of a fist, grows a little bigger.
The heart grew larger and larger until it got closer to Vifiya, and she realized that it wasn't golden lines, but golden runes covering the heart.
Just with her naked eyes, Vifia could see the primitiveness and power of the runes.
The heart suddenly stopped expanding, the ceiling shattered, and a sharp claw suddenly collided with the heart. The huge turbulence caused made her subconsciously take a defensive posture, but she found that she was not affected at all.
The few pieces of falling objects from above that hit him would just pass through him.
A strong white light was so blinding that Vifiya couldn't help but close her eyes tightly. When she opened them again, she saw endless white and a huge dragon.
Vifiya didn't know how to describe the scene before her. The dragon's body was a deep, gorgeous blue. Its horns were different from what she had imagined. They were crystal clear, and she could vaguely see the smoke in the eggshell.
The dragon seemed to dislike the monotonous white. It slapped the ground with its claws, and the endless fields were filled with colorful flowers swaying in the wind, and white clouds floated in the blue sky.
Vifia looked at the moving flowers and realized that she could not feel the flow of this place.
The dragon was in a flying position, and its blue vertical pupils seemed to make eye contact with Vifiya for a moment.
She was startled, thinking she could be seen, only to see the dragon spread its wings and soar in the sky. His movements were light and swift, breaking the tranquility of the sky. He chased the wind, passed through the clouds, and flew to the other end of the sky. Like a fish in the sea, he returned happily after playing in the water.
Emotions are contagious. The corners of Vifiya's lips could not help but curl up slightly, and her eyes followed His figure flying in the sky.
Her eyes suddenly flickered and she felt dizzy.
She struggled to open her eyes, and what she saw was a glacier with towering ice peaks reaching into the sky. The waves were surging, and the ice at the edge of the sea collapsed and sank into it, with huge waves rolling in.
On the highest cliff, a little girl in a purple dress ran happily against the wind, feeling the chill from the heavens and earth and listening to the beautiful songs from the bottom of the sea. She stopped and asked a vague figure at the edge, "Is this the world you created?"
Vifiya froze. Goddess Lehomi? Before she could take a closer look, the whole world spun.
Before she could react, a girl with blue vertical pupils in front of her stared at her as if she was looking at something new and strange. She stretched out her hands.
Vifia froze. The girl's hand reached through her body and picked up a baby covered in mud. The girl stared at the baby and spoke to the unclear figure next to her, "This race doesn't have a name yet. I will call them elves. I will give them slender ears so that they can listen to the wind of freedom."
Vifia looked at the supposedly real goddess Lehomie, and the girl continued, "Thesmera, this little elf can't see."
Vifiya did not move. She had already figured out her position, which was to watch everything.
The figure finally spoke: "It's a poor child."
It was a voice Vifiya had heard before, and she couldn't tell whether it was male or female.
The baby stretched out his hands and babbled. The girl put her hands over her eyes and said, "I want to give her eyes as blue as mine."
A golden light suddenly appeared, and the girl smiled and said to the baby, "Now, in the whole world, we are the only two with blue eyes. It is your honor to share the same color as the great Buma Lingdalie."
The same rotation caught Vifiya off guard, but fortunately she had gradually gotten used to it.
The crowd passed through her body. The night was monotonous, but this place was bustling with activity.
In the huge water ball condensed by the human magician, the mermaid swayed its tail fin and looked around curiously.
The bones of the walking skeletons creaked, and one of them accidentally stepped on a rock and fell apart. The head on the ground said in frustration: "Guys, help me."
The companions laughed: "Are you still not proficient in walking now? Hahahaha."
The fairy flapped its wings and gently landed on the shepherd's shoulder.
The human soldier roared in a gruff voice: "Hey! Jamie! Do you need me to carry you over?"
The dwarf in front of him not only did not feel offended, but also laughed: "Boy, Old Niven will not bother with you. You must buy Old Niven three barrels of wine today."
"Three buckets aren't enough! Five buckets! Let's go!"
The devils commanded the cleaned chain golems to guard the safety here, and the human beings walked arm in arm with him, taking him to experience the harvest with confidence.
This was a scene that Vifiya had never seen since she came to this world, or rather, she had hardly seen any other races besides humans. For her, this was a unique experience and extremely fresh.
From their words, she could guess that a harvest festival was being held here.
Different races gathered together to celebrate the gift from the goddess. Even the chain golem that wreaked havoc at the college's opening dinner was doing the defending work here.
They are happy and smiling, they are brothers and sisters...
She seemed to have come to this place long, long ago through someone's perspective, celebrating this beautiful day with the people of the past.
It's so beautiful, like... a dream...
Vifiya knew that this was real, and she also understood the cruelty of the future.
They would raise their swords and chop at each other's heads. All the trust in the past, the trust shown in each other's backs, and the secrets revealed after drinking became their sharpest weapons.
Their blood, their flesh, and their emotions will all become nourishment for this land.
Hatred will blind them and the color red will drive them crazy.
So the whole land was in conflict until humans established an empire, and it was not until after the great war four hundred years later that they put an end to it all, when a huge curtain descended from the sky.
Beside the bonfire, a young bard, encouraged by his lover, stood in the middle with his harp, singing: "To Bumalindarevalega, the beloved friend of the goddess Lehomi."
"Blue is free, the sky is free,
My eternal soul, with my broken heart,
Tear apart the imprisoned thoughts of mankind, and strangle all injustices with joy,
This autumn, I will remember my wings, they soared in the sky,
It flew over there, it shed brilliant blood,
It laughs at its caged inmates, losing the courage to take to the sky."
Vifiya heard the whistling of wind in her ears, but this time it did not spin.
She found herself high in the sky, no, a dragon was flying.
The dragon flapped its wings and flew over one place after another. Strangely, she seemed to be able to feel the dragon's emotions.
Full of love and full of joy.
She saw fields covered with flowers, towering and majestic peaks, the vastness of the ocean, and every creature therein, living in their best form.
The dragon and she were flying happily in the sky, flying higher and higher, farther and farther, and finally they would return to the side of the goddess Lehomi.
Suddenly, it got dark in front of her eyes and Vifiya could not see anything.
"Thesmera, I went to a human community today. There were many sparkling flowers there. This most beautiful and brightest wreath is for you. I made it myself."
"Thesmera, your children are celebrating your birthday. Well... humans call this a birthday. Do you want to go and see it together?"
"Thesmera, humans are indeed your favorite children. They are very smart."
…
"Thesmera, they are quarreling."
…
"Thesmera, they are killing."
…
"Thesmera, are you sad?"
Finally, Weifeiya heard another voice: "Do you like this world?"
“I love the world you created.”
"Do you love them?"
"Of course, just like I love freedom."
…
"Please, Ga."
