Chapter 253 Seleu turned into a sword!
Seleu stared blankly at the elf girl, and many memories related to her emerged in his mind. Those memories did not belong to him, but they were vividly presented, overlapping with the beautiful lyrics, touching his heart.
Bang—bang—bang—
It's the sound of blood surging.
"...Young swordsman
A prince from Cecilia
He and the beautiful elf girl
Travel together
Embark on a magical adventure
..."
Seryu covered his burning brow, his body trembling, and he let out a soft groan of pain. He felt the blood in his body flowing backwards, and his bones were undergoing strange changes. As a swordsman, his swordsman's heart was pried open by a strange yet familiar force, spreading to his limbs and bones.
Shu Li played the harp and sang a poem. When she sang about the elf girl being betrayed by her teammates and being besieged by evil people, the sound of the harp suddenly became tighter and the volume rose.
"...Humans who covet the elves
Showing an ugly face
Hunting the injured elf girl
The Brave Prince Cecilia
Burning souls, draining life
Break free from the confines of darkness
In front of the girl he loves
Resist the sword from the same kind
ah
Beautiful elf girl
The Sword of Kalos will fight for you
..."
When Shu Li finished singing the last sentence, Seryu held his head with both hands and let out a low roar of pain.
He was startled, put down his harp, and wanted to go forward to check. "What's wrong with him..."
Ace shook his head at him. "Let's see first."
Shu Li said nervously, "I just sang an elf poem."
Isn't Seleu's reaction too big?
Ace walked around him, gently placing his hand on his shoulder to calm him down. "Elf poetry has a magical quality that transports the listener into a wondrous fantasy."
Shu Li sat back down and looked up at him questioningly: "Why aren't you affected?"
Ace met his gaze and smiled faintly. "Maybe I'm not from Cecilia!"
The implication is that Seleu, as a Cecilian, can more easily resonate with this elven poem.
Shu Li blinked. "Do you want me to play it again?"
Ace withdrew his hand from his shoulder, looked at Seryuu who was making a sound of pain, and said, "Play it again. Perhaps it will ease his pain."
Shu Li picked up the silver harp, plucked the strings with his fingers deftly, and sang the elven poem "The Girl and the Swordsman" again. This time, he incorporated the magic of blessing of light to soothe Seleu's restless soul.
The moment the magic worked, Seleu's pain was relieved. He let go of his hands that were holding his head, and a golden light lit up between his eyebrows, enveloping his whole body. Gradually, he left the sofa and floated in the air.
Shu Li suppressed her surprise and continued to sing attentively.
The magic not only changed Seleu, but also removed his own disguise.
The black hair instantly turned back to gold, the skin became white and delicate, the eyes returned to the tender green color of grass, the ears became longer and pointed, and the wings behind could no longer be hidden. With a "swish", the magic robe was torn apart by the wings.
Shu Li felt something strange in his body and almost screamed, but when he thought about singing to comfort Seryu, he forced himself to hold back. He closed his eyes and didn't dare to look at Ace's expression.
Ace raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and looked at the little elf gently as it revealed its true form.
The beautiful singing echoed in Seleu's ears, and his restless soul gradually calmed down, as if he had entered a mysterious world.
“Come here… come here…”
A deep voice kept calling him.
He followed the sound and walked slowly forward, passing through a dark passage, and suddenly the view ahead became clear.
This is a wide river. A gorgeous long sword shining with golden light is suspended on the water. As the long sword shines, low voices are heard one after another.
"Come here... hold me... Prince from Cecilia..."
Seleu stared at the sword in amazement.
This is... the Sword of Carlos?
It’s exactly the same sword as the one held in the ancestor’s relief!
Without thinking, Seleu stepped on the river surface, approaching the golden sword step by step.
When he walked in front of the golden sword, he just stretched out his hand and the golden sword fell into his hand. He squeezed it hard and a huge force rushed into his body along his arm.
“Ahhhh—”
His body was instantly enveloped in dazzling golden light.
In reality, Shu Li had already stopped playing, his face filled with shock as he watched helplessly as a living person turned into a golden sword.
This...what is going on?
What about a Seleucid that big?
Why did it disappear?
Instead, there was a golden sword, shining with brilliant light, suspended in the air.
“Zheng——”
The golden sword made a crisp sound.
Shu Li opened her mouth slightly, and a low singing voice rang in her ears.
"Noble Son of Light
I have broken the eternal seal
Return to the world
May you become a ray of light
Fight alongside you again
..."
It's the sword that sings!
Shu Li stood up involuntarily and walked towards the golden sword. The fluorescent wings behind him flapped gently, scattering starlight, which shone brightly with the light of the golden sword.
After staring at the golden sword for a few seconds, he tentatively touched the hilt with his fingers.
The sword does not exclude.
Shu Li boldly grabbed it.
"Zheng!"
The golden sword rang again, a joyful sound, and the golden light on the blade gradually disappeared.
There is no doubt about it, this is a magic sword.
It felt the same as when he held the sword of Viona.
However, why did Seleucus, a living person, turn into the Sword of Carlos after listening to an elven poem?
Isn’t this unbelievable?
Shu Li was puzzled, her delicate eyebrows were knotted, and she couldn't help but look at Ace.
"Is this your fairy look?" Ace looked at Shu Li lovingly and praised her sincerely, "Very beautiful."
Shu Li's face flushed red. He had not forgotten that this roommate seemed to like him.
"Um...don't worry about me for now, take a look at this sword...what's the situation?"
Ace came to his side and brushed his slender fingers across the blade. The golden light that had disappeared from the blade lit up again, even more dazzling than before.
Shu Li was almost blinded by the light and turned around quickly.
Ace retracted his fingers, and the golden light of the blade dimmed a little.
Shu Li rubbed his eyes with his other hand and asked anxiously, "What should I do? Seleu turned into a sword!"
"Don't worry, I'll check it out." Ace took out a yellowed ancient book from his storage bag and flipped through the pages.
Shu Li glanced at the cover of the ancient book.
The Legendary Kingdom of Cecilia
The library at the Magic Academy has a rich collection of books, covering all genres. The most amazing thing is Ace, who always manages to borrow useful books.
Now, it comes in handy.
Ace flipped through more than ten pages before pausing. He looked up at the sword in Shu Li's hand and said, "This book records that after the War of the Gods ten thousand years ago, the nation of Cecilia existed in name only."
"Ah? What do you mean?" Shu Li was confused.
"What I mean is that most of the Cecilians died on the battlefield, especially the royal family. They all sacrificed their lives." Ace said in a deep voice.
Shu Li looked at the golden sword in his hand in confusion. "But... Seleu is Prince Cecilia!"
Ace said: "After the War of the Gods ended, the people were displaced and the countries were in ruins. The people who fled to Cecilia from other countries stayed and became the new Cecilia. As for the royal family..."
He turned a page and continued, "The heir to the throne is a prince of a different surname who has no blood relationship with the royal family. Seleu is the descendant of that prince."
"Is that so?" Shu Li leaned forward and glanced at the text in the book. After reading it, he asked, "If Seleu wasn't the real Prince Cecilia, how could he have become the Sword of Carlos?"
"Inheritance." Ace closed the book and reached out to Shu Li.
Shu Li understood and handed him the sword.
Ace held the hilt of the sword with his right hand, holding it horizontally in front of him, and put his left index and middle fingers together, gently stroking the blade.
A magical mark appears on the blade.
"Seleu must have received the inheritance under unknown circumstances. The elven poetry awakened the dusty inheritance and awakened the Sword of Kalos."
Shu Li said quietly, "You really know a lot."
Ace laid the golden sword flat on the sofa. "I like reading. The more I read, the more I understand. Of course, what I say may not be correct. I'll ask Seryu about the specific situation after he returns to normal."
Shu Li squatted in front of the sofa, chin in hand, looking at Jin Jian. "Can he change back?"
Ace said: "It should be possible."
"No... I don't understand..." Shu Li stood up, hands behind his back, and paced back and forth. "The Sword of Viona is a real sword, so why is the Sword of Carlos a human? Or do the five magic swords have different modes of existence?"
Ace pondered, "As magical swords, they must have their own magical properties. As far as I know, except for the Sword of Carlos, which relies on bloodline inheritance, the other four magic swords are inherited normally."
"That's not bad." Shu Li breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to see a living person transform into a sword again.
Glancing sideways at the Carlos Sword on the sofa, he asked, "Just leave it there? Can't you help it?"
Ace said, "Leave it alone. It will recover naturally in due time. There's nothing we can do to help."
Shu Li thought about it. "Okay!"
They want to help, but they are unable to do so.
Ace urged with a smile: "It's late, go back to your room and sleep."
Shu Li scratched her hair and felt the small flower crown that had returned to its original form. Suddenly, she remembered that she had revealed her true form in front of her roommate. She panicked and said hurriedly, "I...I'm going to bed. Good night!"
Without waiting for Ace's response, he quickly put away the silver harp on the sofa, flapped his wings, flew to the bedroom door, and pushed it open.
"Bang!"
The door was slammed shut, followed by the sound of it being locked.
A smile flashed in Ace's green eyes.
After a moment, he stood in front of the sofa, looked down at Carlos's sword, and wrote a string of magic spells in the air with his bony fingers.
After writing the last symbol, a delicate and small magic circle appeared above the hilt.
The magic circle descended, merged into the hilt, and disappeared without a trace.
After doing this, Ace turned off the magic stone lamp in the living room and returned to his bedroom.
Silver moonlight shone through the window and fell on the golden sword.
The shining light of the golden sword echoed with the moonlight. After an unknown amount of time, the golden sword turned into a handsome brown-haired young man, lying flat on the sofa, his eyes closed, breathing evenly, and sleeping soundly.
The first thing Shu Li did when he returned to the bedroom was to rush into the bathroom. Seeing his true appearance in the mirror, he rubbed his cheeks in annoyance.
It's true, the disguise was lifted by the magic of a song.
Fortunately, he brought camouflage chemicals and hair dye, and he had to get them back quickly, otherwise he would have trouble going out tomorrow.
However, what bothered him most was the school uniform magic robe with two big holes on the back.
He yawned, resigned himself to taking out his needle and thread, and mending the clothes all night long.
Fortunately, the little fairies have taken sewing classes and have good skills, so they can ensure that there are no signs of tearing after sewing.
In the bedroom next door, the Elf King stood in front of the window, letting the moonlight fall on him.
The branch of the mother tree quietly climbed up to his windowsill and raised a branch.
"Fris, this time the Sword of Carlos awakened twenty years early."
"Um."
The Elf King raised his head slightly, the bright full moon reflected in his green eyes. His perception quietly expanded to Shu Li's bedroom. He "saw" the little goblin sitting cross-legged on the bed, painstakingly mending his magic robe, with a smile on his handsome face.
