Chapter 2565 Boat Ticket (Additional Updates, Please Vote)

"I brought that flame to her, and then in the fusion of the flames, first her blood vessels were lit up, then her skin cracked bright red, and finally she was burned to ashes in front of me. Only then did I know how dangerous the First Fire was."

The fire-holding nuns are not always able to hold the flame safely. Almost all fire-holding nuns in the past generations were eventually burned to ashes by the flames. Even though Sister Defulin was almost the most talented nun in the Sixth Era, her hands had burn marks long before she met Shade.

Therefore, the sister of Ms. Anya Bullock was burned to death by the flames because of the vigor of the First Fire. In fact, it was the destined ending when she set foot on this road.

Of course, Sister Defulin is unlikely to die like this. After all, she found the "fire-bearing hero" with a special soul, the stranger. The shared flame not only means that the flame will become more and more vigorous and docile, but also means that someone will share the power with her.

"Sorry. All mortals must die."

Shade could only comfort her like this. Ms. Bullock nodded and continued to look at the bonfire absentmindedly:

"I have reached the thirteenth step, and I have seen a lot of things and experienced a lot of sadness. Although my sister who loved me all my life died because of the fire I found, I still hold on to the last hope:

When I also die, I think my sister will be waiting for me there, and we will meet again."

She took a deep breath and asked Shade:

"Do you know what will happen next?"

"I know that the souls of the nuns burned by the first fire will also reach the end, but they can't appear at will like other souls."

Ms. Bullock nodded gently:

"Yes, it took me a long time to know this. Before turning into ashes, my sister comforted me that she didn't mean to let me bury her in person, but it was her responsibility. She said she would wait for me there, but in the end she still lied."

Shade was very happy that she was just telling a story without crying, otherwise he really didn't know how to comfort her.

"So you came here?"

"Yes, since she lied, since no one is willing to wait for me even at the end, then let me disappear completely, and let her wait for the end of the world alone in the burning."

"Sorry, can I say something?"

Mr. Nelson said boldly, he almost exhausted all his courage:

"You want to punish your sister by hurting yourself. This is stupid, sorry, but it is really stupid. You hurt two people at once and get nothing."

Shade cast an approving look at him. Miss Bullock did not look at Mr. Nelson, was not angry, and did not refute.

"Mr. Nelson is right, and you have a bright future. When you sit on the seat of death, can't you use the power of the witch to go to the real death? Since you can't see her after death, then didn't you consider seeing her before you died, go to see her in death."

Shade said again, although the witch of the sixth era did not have this power, he didn't know about the fifth era.

"I can actually use the power of the parliament to open the door briefly, or use relics such as the [Gate of Death] to peek into death. But no matter what, living people like us cannot go to that place."

Miss Bullock probably thought that Shade didn't understand, so she explained to him what the so-called witches in the seat of death could do.

She explained it in great detail, and Shade thought that there were some things that even Miss Flora Winslet of the Sixth Epoch might not know.

The most important responsibility of the "Death" witch is actually to record the death of every witch in the parliament. According to Miss Bullock, although there is no requirement for the witches to be buried in the parliament after their death, there is indeed a "witch cemetery" underground in the witch parliament.

The bodies of the witches who voluntarily buried in the parliament are all there, and the witches whose bodies are not in the parliament also have their own tombstones:

"That is where our souls go."

However, Ms. Bullock is not a real member of the parliament at present, so she does not know whether her soul will really return to the parliament after her death.

Therefore, she chose to come here before she became a councillor, bid farewell to her life completely, and let her dead sister "regret for life".

"It's just like a child fighting."

Xia De thought so in his heart, and then thought that instead of relying on words to comfort her, it would be better to use actions to make her give up doing stupid things.

Of course, although even if she was allowed to leave, it would not affect Xia De's mission this time, but based on the principle of "it's better to save her anyway", he still said:

"It's a coincidence that I happen to have the power to open the door of death."

The witch looked at him, and Xia De coughed while roasting the fire:

"It's certainly wrong to play with death, but for various reasons, I go to death every few months, and I even return to the world of the living with the soul that is heading to the end.

No, don't be bright, I can't revive your sister, this is absolutely impossible. And you need a door to go to death, but that door is in my house"

As he said, Xia De looked up at the boat next to the pier:

"But you are lucky. The 'boatman' said he could take me anywhere I want to go. So as long as we can afford the reward, I think this boat should be able to take us to death."

"But the soul of the nun who was burned by the first fire is different from that of ordinary people. Even if we go, we will most likely not see her."

The witch was hopeful for a moment, but in the blink of an eye, she thought of a new problem.

Shad shook his head:

"This is a small matter. I have seen someone call out a nun from the past in death (Extra 3). Of course, I can't bring the lady who did this here, but I can borrow the key item."

That is to borrow the mithril eye mask from Sister Defulin. From the perspective of inheritance, the eye mask actually still exists at the present time and has been worn by Ms. Brock's sister. With that, Shad felt that he could 100% see Ms. Brock's sister from death.

But thinking of Sister Defulin's attitude towards the eye mask, Shad actually worried for a second whether Sister Defulin was willing to lend it.

Of course, that was something he would think about after he returned. He still concluded with a smile:

"Look, the ship takes us to the death, and then I take out the key props to call out the souls that would not appear. I hope that Detective Sparrow will not be called out this time. In this way, won't you be able to meet your sister? If there is anything that bothers you, just talk to her."

Seeing her hesitant expression, Shade continued:

"Or at least ask clearly why she lied to you in the first place. Instead of leaving and never looking back, it is better to answer your doubts and make a decision."

Ms. Bullock nodded and asked him immediately:

"What reward do I need to pay you for helping me?"

Shade was startled. He didn't think about the reward. After all, he had never asked for reward when he helped anyone in the Fifth Era:

"If I have any questions later, please answer them as much as possible. Also, this Mr. Nelson did not come here by mistake. He is waiting for his wife here. If he needs help later, I would like to ask you to help him with me."

The middle-aged man looked over in surprise, and Shade smiled at him.

The 13th-level witch nodded decisively:

"That's fair, so what should we do now?"

"Come with me to ask about the boat tickets. The boatman won't take us for nothing."

Shad stood up with the help of the black sand, and his shadow swayed on the sand farther away because of his body shaking.

Ms. Bullock also stood up hurriedly, and then saw him warn very seriously:

"Remember, I will talk later. If I don't signal you, don't say a word."

Ms. Bullock nodded even though she didn't understand:

"Don't worry, since you are here to help me, everything is up to you."

So Mr. Nelson watched Shad and Ms. Bullock stand up and walk onto the pier together, and then watched them come to the side of the ship together.

The three-meter-tall black-robed ferryman did not ask the two whether they wanted to board the ship this time, so Shade took the initiative to ask:

"Hello, can we pay for the ticket and let this ship carry the two of us into real death, and then bring us back the same way?"

"Yes."

The hoarse and slow voice said, and Ms. Bullock was obviously relieved. Shade asked again:

"What do we need to pay for the ticket?"

Three cards flew out from the sleeves of the black robe made of black mist and stopped in front of Shade and the witch. The back of the card is the card back of the "All Things Impermanence Card", and the front is a blank pattern.

"The cards of the game of life?"

Ms. Block was a little surprised. The "ferryman" under the black robe continued:

"A tear of regret, 1 moment of sin of [cowardice], and a little warmth of the soul."

"We need to give you the tears ourselves, so do you come to take the sins and warmth of the soul, or do we give them to you after we get them?"

"These are containers."

The "boatman" answered, and Shade understood that they had to separate them themselves and then pay the boatman. So he reached out and took the three cards floating in front of him, and asked in his heart:

"Can I take them away and collect them in the Sixth Epoch?"

[No. 】

Then Shade bowed to the "ferryman":

"Thank you for your explanation, we will bring these 'tickets' later."

As he said that, he motioned to the lady who was a little suspicious because of his respectful tone and actions to follow him back to the pier.

The two returned quickly. Far away from the bonfire and above the black waters, the emotions of joy and happiness faded away much faster than on the beach.
