Chapter 703 Come Out

"Merlin, I have a request. ;"

Gut, who was a little tired, seemed to say hesitantly.

"Oh? You want me to let the Dougland family go?"

Merlin naturally guessed Gut's meaning. For him, a business family is nothing. Besides, the Dougland family has great business influence. Since they can contribute to the church, they can also support Black Moon. kingdom.

So he nodded and said, "At that time, I will let His Majesty Bhutto XVII canonize you as the Marquis of the Black Moon Kingdom. I believe that having this title will be enough to guarantee your family's status in the Black Moon Kingdom in the future! "

Gut is very excited, Marquis, that is bigger than the earl conferred to him by the Holy Light Empire, and with the words of Merlin, I believe that no one will settle the old accounts of the Douglan family in the future.

After all, with Gut's shrewdness, he has long known from the few words of some spellcasters how far his former friend Merlin has grown.

"Thank you, Merlin, now the only people I care about are the descendants of the family. With your words, I can rest assured. However, I think you should go see an old friend."

"Old friend? You mean Anson?"

Merlin recalled slightly, he still remembered the red-haired boy back then.

Gut shook his head and said: "Anson is dead, killed by his elder brother, for the title..."

Gut obviously didn't want to mention this matter anymore. Anson died, and Anson's family was destroyed by a war. Gut was naturally very sad to see his friend die.

Merlin looked at it very lightly. Ordinary people have only been in a hurry for decades. If it wasn't for this time he returned to Blackwater City, and came back in a few years, I am afraid that he was familiar with him. are all dead.

"It's not Anson, it's Mrs. Kelly! I don't know what happened to you, but after you left Blackwater City, Mrs. Kelly never got married. In the end, she inherited the Mandy family. Although she never mentioned I've been to you. But I know that whenever I recall something about you. Her eyes light up..."

Listening to Gut's words, Merlin gradually recalled in his mind that the matter between him and Kelly had only been met in a hurry. However, Kelly was very important to Merlin, because it was Kelly who brought Merlin to meet the old man Aita. After that, Merlin embarked on the road of being a spellcaster.

if not,

Merlin had no chance to touch the caster at all, no chance to touch the spell.

only. He didn't expect that after so many years, people he didn't even remember much would wait for decades for him.

"Where is she?"

After a long time, Merlin asked.

"In Mandy Castle in Blackwater City. She is seriously ill, and I'm afraid she won't be able to survive for a few days..."

Gut hesitated, but in the end he didn't say anything, just sighed.

Outside the castle, little Andy was happily playing with the "big pet" the three-headed demon dragon. The guards were all looking at little Andy with a wry smile. They didn't dare to approach the three-headed demon dragon, so they could only let little Andy be in the terrifying three-headed dragon. On the head of the dragon, various "dangerous" actions were made.

Gut is old, but little Andy's life has not yet begun. This is a reincarnation of ordinary people...

*****

It was late at night, but an uninvited guest came from outside the ancient castle. Merlin in a black robe seemed to be completely integrated into the night in the dark, without disturbing anyone, and quietly flew into the Mandy Castle.

As soon as his mental power was swept away, he immediately knew Kelly's room.

"Cough cough".

There was a rapid coughing sound from the room, and then the maid was busy for a while, and seemed to serve Mrs. Kelly to sleep before she left the room.

No one noticed, the door quietly opened, and Kelly, who had just fallen asleep, didn't lift her head, and said in a hoarse voice: "Betty, didn't I tell you to go down to rest? I don't need you to stare here, it's alright... …”

Kelly's face was pale, and her white hair was scattered over her shoulders. Due to her illness, she looked particularly haggard. This was an old man who seemed to be terminally ill.

After waiting for a while, it seemed that there was still no movement. Kelly frowned, turned around, and opened her eyes gently. At that moment, her mind was blank, her mouth was open, but she couldn't speak.

She had dreamed of this figure many times, and this time it seemed to be the same as in the dream.

"Kelise!"

It's just that, unlike in the past dreams, this time, the other party opened his mouth, and his voice was a little cold, but Mrs. Kelly was excited.

"You... are you Merlin?"

At this time, Kelly finally realized that this was not a dream anymore, Merlin was back, but seeing Merlin like this, she seemed to have a sense of unreality again.

"I'm back, I just went to Gut's place, and I heard him mention some of your situation..."

Having said that, Merlin didn't speak any more. He could feel that Kelly's current situation was very bad, and her vitality was seriously lost. Even, this should already be a dead person, but she is still alive now, it seems that it is because of her heart. Persistent belief.

Kelly kept staring at Merlin, and a force seemed to emerge from her body again, supporting her to lie on the bed. Merlin gently supported Kelly. After a long time, she said with a smile: "I knew for a long time that when you became Mr. Aita's disciple, you must have become very extraordinary. Mr. Aita was a spellcaster at the beginning, and you became a spellcaster because of Mr. Aita, right?"

Merlin nodded and said, "Yes, without Teacher Aita, I would not have become a spellcaster, and perhaps I would have finished my life like Gut."

"It's nothing to live my life like this. I'm very satisfied to see you last, and Gut is also living a good life..."

Kelly has been talking endlessly, as if she and Merlin have endless things to say, just chatting about some interesting things over the years.

The night was getting deeper and deeper. A sweet smile appeared on Kelly's face. Her breath became weaker and weaker. She stretched out her withered hand and gently held Merlin. Soft as a girl.

"call……"

A gust of cold wind blew in from the window and ruffled Merlin's hair, but he didn't feel the slightest bit of coldness, just an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Kelly's hand has fallen, and she has no vitality. Just now, she had died unknowingly, but before her death, she was so peaceful.

The life of an ordinary person is as short as a candle, and it has been in a hurry for decades, but a peaceful life is what most people dream of. Maybe old Wilson and Shirley will be like this in the future, with a smile. , died contentedly.

At this moment, Merlin's heart seemed to feel even more lonely. The loneliness that only spellcasters could feel was slowly gnawing at his heart, and the excitement of returning to Blackwater City had completely disappeared, leaving only a trace of saying Unclear feeling of loneliness, as if this world, there is nothing worthy of his nostalgia.

Blackwater City was his initial beginning, and perhaps, this was also his end in this world!

Merlin gently covered Kelly with a quilt, and quietly withdrew from Mandy Castle without anyone knowing. The wind was strong outside the castle, and the faint candlelight shot out from the castle, and the trees outside the castle cast a bunch of black shadows.

"rustle".

The breeze was blowing the big tree, and Merlin was walking alone on the dark road outside the castle. The faint light gradually disappeared from the road, and the darkness drowned Merlin's figure.

Suddenly, Merlin stopped and said calmly, "Since we're all here, why hide? Come out!"

In the silent night, Merlin's voice spread around with the breeze...
