Hathaway raised her beautiful light golden eyes.
"Light up a...new sun?"
She spoke softly.
With confusion and a little longing.
That was indeed her own wish.
As a high elf who grew up on the Lost Isle, this small island and the royal court are Hathaway's whole world.
She did not have the ambition, like those elders of the Council, to return to the Western Continent and make the elves as powerful as they were during the Elf King's Court in the Glorious Age, and to stand on top of the continent again.
From the beginning to the end, Hathaway's wish is——
It's just to make this dark island a little brighter.
...
...
Let the eyes of the tribesmen in the Lost Island, which are accustomed to darkness, see clearly the vast ocean, see clearly the overall picture of the majestic royal court, and also see clearly each other's faces.
That's all she needed, and she would be satisfied enough.
But soon, the golden elf lowered his head again with some disappointment.
"Teacher Xia, you are really good at joking."
She could understand that Char wanted to comfort herself.
after all--
In order to spread the arcane and magic among the elves of the Lost Island, let them completely let go of the already polluted power that comes from their blood.
Possesses the ability to face the Fallen Sun and escape from the Lost Island.
This is destined to be an extremely long and difficult process.
The power of blood is the cornerstone of the elves' existence. If the elves are to be willing to abolish it and embark on a new path with a bleak future, there is no telling how many obstacles and oppositions they will face.
Hathaway is even prepared to spend her entire life to accomplish this.
Even so, the long wait would make Xia disappointed and he would eventually choose to leave.
But……
Compared to his own thoughts, what Char said was truly a fantasy.
"Light up a...new sun."
That is an authority that surpasses that of gods.
In the glorious age, the supreme creator was known as the Sun God.
Even though the glory of the glorious era has faded, its aftermath still shakes the entire main material plane and has not dissipated after thousands of years.
Even though Hathaway had confidence in the young man beside her and knew that Char as a wizard was not everything to him, she did not think that Char could possess power that surpassed the Creator.
"So, Hathaway."
"You should have some confidence in your teacher."
Char calmly touched his master's head again, a smile on his face that looked like he was kidnapping an ignorant underage girl.
This opportunity to take advantage of my own master is extremely rare. It will be less and less each time I touch it, so I have to cherish it.
"Someone once told me—"
"Since you have chosen to embark on the path of a wizard, you should discard all your past fears and only have a pure desire to seek."
"Use the arcane arts, known rules and legal principles, to analyze everything in this world."
"Whether it's a dead thing or a living thing... or a god, it's the same."
Char paused for a moment.
"The authority called the stars is not exclusive to the original creator."
"As long as we understand the principles behind it, then no matter you, me, or any other wizard, it may not be beyond our reach."
"With our current status, we are indeed not able to reach the size of the Sun God, let alone create a star that illuminates the entire Western Continent."
"But if we just want to illuminate this lost island... then we can do it."
As he spoke, Char took out a small core from his arms.
Hathaway could see that it was some kind of magic item made of metal and spell patterns.
Engraved and solidified in it was a mysterious spell model that she had never heard of or seen before.
"This is the result of analyzing the laws governing the movement of stars and materializing them into a precise magic model."
“I named it——“Solar Furnace”. ”
Char handed the small, dull furnace core in his hand to the girl in front of him.
"My mental strength was restricted on the Lost Island, and I can't mobilize magic power on a large scale."
"Try to inject magic into this core, Hathaway."
The golden elf took the small magic core from Char and looked at it carefully.
Pretty unremarkable.
Can the authority that powers the movement of the sun really be contained in this tiny furnace core?
A trace of confusion arose in her heart.
However, out of trust in Char, Hathaway nodded obediently and stretched out her white finger.
The invisible and intangible light gathers at the fingertips.
After several months of adaptation, she could now use the new power called magic that originated from the astral world as she wished.
Injected into the dim magic furnace core.
The next moment——
boom.
The golden elf's beautiful light golden eyes suddenly widened.
At this moment, she heard the magic factor roaring in the furnace core.
It's not a low-level trick like "Flash". Instead, there really was a tiny blazing sun that suddenly shone in the furnace core made of alloy and magic array patterns.
It was obvious that the magic power she injected into the magic furnace was only the magic power of a second or third level spell, and it would be exhausted after releasing a "fireball" at most.
But at this moment.
However, light and heat far exceeding the limits of second and third level spells were released from the magic furnace core.
The bright and dazzling light burst out from the core of the magic furnace and poured into her vision like a tide.
It illuminates the quiet and dark beach, as well as the dark sea.
Although she has lived on the Lost Island for hundreds of years, this is the first time Hathaway has seen the entire beach and sea.
Under the radiance of the magic furnace core, the vast and boundless sea surface was shimmering with waves.
Tens of millions of tons of sea water were rippling slowly in the faint light, like a dim sea of stars, with the tides rising and falling.
The shadows of the golden elves and humans intertwined in the slanting light, reflected on the beach behind them, stretching infinitely.
Hathaway did not speak for several minutes.
She was just immersed in the scenery before her, which looked like the afterglow of the sunset, and remained silent for a long time.
Until a certain moment, the magic power that had been injected into the furnace core was burned out and the magic furnace core went out.
The curtain of eternal night replaced the brief light and once again enveloped the beach and the sea.
"Teacher Char, this is what you said..."
"A new sun?"
The golden elf's gaze remained on the sea, even though it had returned to darkness.
"Um."
Char played with the magic core that had dimmed again.
"The furnace core you used earlier is just a miniaturized portable solar furnace that I use to power the Black Knight mecha."
"And if we follow the similar principle and scale it up."
"Then, it can become a new light source that illuminates this island under the curtain of eternal night."
In Hathaway's originally dim eyes——
As Char spoke, the light gradually began to reappear.
The feedback from her spiritual intuition told her.
This is not an unfounded pie -
But it is the real reality.
This island of eternal night will finally see the day when it is illuminated by the sun again.
…
Char stood aside, calmly watching the golden elf with joy in his eyes.
He didn't say anything in the past few minutes, but he was not immersed in this moment of light.
Since Char was born, he has been bathed in sunshine every day, so although he can understand Hathaway's feelings at this moment, he has never personally experienced the hundreds of years of perseverance in the darkness, so it is difficult for him to truly empathize.
Just now, the moment the solar furnace was lit.
He was vaguely aware of it.
In the center of the lost island, on top of the towering ancient tree.
There was a certain ancient and lofty will that slightly lowered its gaze.
Although there were no other disturbances, Char was certain.
His arrival and the magic furnace core that had just been lit had already been noticed by the ancient will.
"Because you sensed an authority that was similar to your own, or even identical to your own, you finally felt a little impatient."
"Is it because of the great constraints and restrictions that there was no turmoil just now? Are you planning to mobilize the chess pieces under your control to interfere?"
Char suppressed his inner turmoil.
From the very beginning, he discovered the location of the will sleeping in the branches of the world tree.
And all of Char's previous actions were to attract the other party's attention.
We are not afraid of His coming, but rather afraid of His not coming.
Char didn't know how long he could stay in the historical remnants of the First Age, so he naturally couldn't just keep wasting time like this.
The Lost Island has been sinking in darkness for too long and can no longer withstand the consumption.
The only way is to completely intensify all the latent problems and conflicts on this island.
Then, resolve everything quickly and with a decisive blow.
But, that kind of future——
But it may not develop as the golden elf girl wishes at this moment.
"Let's go, Mr. Char. I'll take you to the royal court."
"If we want to make a magic furnace that is large enough to illuminate the entire Lost Island, we need the support of other tribesmen."
"I think everyone in the royal court will welcome your arrival."
The sweet voice sounded in Xia's ears, with a hint of impatience.
Xia looked at the golden elf in front of him.
It was a completely different figure from the future "Eternal Page" Hathaway, and it also had a bit of the immaturity that was unique to a girl.
"Can innocent children only grow up after experiencing pain?"
Xia sighed inwardly and held the little white hand.
"Lead the way."
