1731 Taken Out From the Cage

"You can be 'that person'...? "

Beatrice's lips were trembling, her eyes were trembling, and even her entire delicate body was trembling.

Because, what Fang Li said was like saying that, right?

"Can anyone be Betty's 'that person'...? "

That's what Beatrice thought of.

And Fang Li affirmed it.

"That witch is the agglomeration of intellectual desire and curiosity. As long as she can satisfy her curiosity, she will do it no matter what it is."

That's why Echidna said, if possible, Fang Lilai would be "that person".

The meaning of this is not just to let Beatrice be relieved, but must also include Echidna's own essence in it, right?

"The reason why she made a contract with you is, on the one hand, so that you can continue to live, and feels that it is necessary to give you a purpose again, and on the other hand, it is also to witness your end."

After all, the lustful witch is interested in everything in this world, hoping to satisfy her curiosity with the past, present, and future of this world.

Same goes for Beatrice.

She was given the duty of guarding the forbidden library, but she didn't specifically stipulate who "that person" was. She said that it was up to Beatrice to choose, but this choice itself was what Echidna was after.

Who will Beatrice choose as "that person"?

Or do you not make a choice and spend the long years for nothing?

And what kind of actions would Beatrice take after enduring the loneliness, loneliness and emptiness that can be called despair during the long years of waiting?

Will he break the contract with his mother and pursue life by himself?

Or should we wait until we think about life and death, and seek death as a release?

All of this, whether it is the process or the result, is what Echidna wants to know.

That is to say, Beatrice's experience of gradually depleting her mind and even withering her mind during the four hundred years is simply something that exists to satisfy Echidna's curiosity.

Echidna,

He didn't think about how Beatrice would feel at all.

"And now, you are ready to escape the contract with death and end your long years of waiting."

Fang Li cast his eyes directly on Beatrice, and said something ironic.

"For the witch, this should be just a dispensable answer, right?"

Fang Li's words made Beatrice fall into silence.

However, on that immature face, various emotions such as sadness, anger, bitterness and crying appeared one after another.

For four hundred years of waiting, the starting point is to satisfy a curiosity?

So, is there nothing recorded in the Gospels, just for Beatrice to worry, choose and draw conclusions?

If this is the case…

If this is the case…

"Then why did Betty survive?"

Beatrice said with a sob.

"I knew it... I knew it..."

If he had known earlier, at that time four hundred years ago, he should have chosen to die.

In this way, there will be no such painful memories.

However, Beatrice, who was thinking like this, didn't know it at all.

In the cemetery of the "Sanctuary", among the three trials left by the witch of lust, the first one is to let the participants face their past.

When facing one's own past, as long as one can give an answer, it is considered as passing the test.

In other words, for Echidna, a person's past is also one of the factors that satisfy her curiosity.

The same goes for Beatrice.

For Beatrice, the past that needs to be faced directly is the emptiness, loneliness and despair that lasted for four hundred years.

"As a result, didn't Betty get nothing?"

Beatrice vented with pear blossoms on her face as if she was questioning someone.

"What did Betty gain from these four hundred years of waiting? Isn't it as blank as the records in the Gospels!?"

Faced with Beatrice's cry, Fang Li smiled instead.

Moreover, it is still the kind of laughing.

"Blank?"

When Fang Li came in front of Beatrice, he spoke indifferently as if his eyes were oppressed.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Isn't there something in your Gospel?"

Such a speech made Beatrice stunned.

But Fang Li ignored Beatrice's performance, knelt down on one knee, picked up a page from the ground, and showed it in front of Beatrice.

"Look, isn't there something like this?"

The page that Fang Li is holding is the page that records Fang Li.

——— "The one who can kill everything."

This is the only thing recorded in Beatrice's Gospel.

Why did the records in the other party appear in the Gospel, which should have been blank?

Perhaps this is also the result of Echidna's unprecedented curiosity and possessiveness in her opponent?

But this result happened to be the only record in Beatrice's life.

"You said that a void in the Gospel means a void in your future."

Fang Li said such words with a nonchalant attitude.

"However, your Gospel doesn't record anything, but it only records my appearance. Doesn't that prove that your future belongs to me?"

The unprecedented bandit theory emerged from Fang Li's mouth just like that.

"You... what stupid things are you talking about!"

Beatrice was also stunned, and soon became angry.

"This kind of thing... how is it possible...!?"

Before he could finish his sentence, Fang Li interrupted him.

"Do you want to say that I am just making excuses?" Fang Li said bluntly: "But if you want to deny it, it means that you have also denied the meaning of the Gospel, and your future is not what this book can do at all." decided."

Saying so, Fang Li threw the page of the book in his hand aside, allowing it to be burned in the sea of ​​fire.

Then, Fang Li said so.

"I don't care what you think, but I have said long ago that I will finish your mission."

Fang Li looked directly at Beatrice and said something calmly.

"Now, I will take you out of this cage."

After speaking, Fang Li hugged Beatrice directly.

"You... you let go of Betty... let go..."

Beatrice was crying and struggling.

However, the strength of that struggle was unimaginably weak.

But even so, Beatrice was crying and cursing all the time.

"You robber..."

"I do not deny."

"It's abhorrent to actually plan to force Betty..."

"I don't deny that either."

"Why don't you kill Betty...?"

"Because I don't want to kill."

"Why don't you give up Betty...?"

"Because I don't want to give up."

"You...why aren't you Betty's 'the one'...? "

"Of course it's because I don't need any knowledge of the forbidden library."

"Then...then what do you want...?"

"Does that still matter?"

Fang Li's faint laughter echoed in the air of the forbidden library.

"Of course it's you."

Such words shattered Beatrice's obsession.

...

"Buzz!"

In the Roswaal mansion that was engulfed in flames, a beam of light suddenly rose into the sky and went straight to the sky.

"That is…!?"

Outside, Frandelica, who was waiting anxiously, saw this scene, was startled for a moment, and then showed a joyful expression.

If there was an elf envoy present, he would definitely be able to recognize the real body of that light.

It was the light that could only appear when a formal contract was made with a powerful elf.

That is, the light of the contract.
