Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 40 Seal

The black figure froze there, released the palm that pinched Bernadette's neck, and seemed to be staring at the "Queen of Mysteries" with eyes that didn't exist at all.

A dry, hoarse voice echoed in the hidden space:

"home……"

This voice was a little hesitant, a little dazed, and a little bit of a feeling of seeking confirmation, as if it came from another world.

The erosion suffered by Bernadette disappeared, and the connection between her and her Sealed Artifact was instantly restored.

"Pale Death" began to let her die bit by bit again, which helped her fight the gradual confusion of her thoughts and maintain her basic sobriety and sanity.

Just when she opened her mouth to say something else, the black figure suddenly stretched out her palm again.

But this time, instead of pinching Bernadette's neck, it pushed hard.

Accompanying this push is the disintegration of the hidden space, a voice with obvious pain, as if resisting something:

"leave!"

As the voice echoed, the black figure disappeared out of thin air.

After an instant, it appeared on the high platform in the center and sat on the huge iron-black high-back chair.

Its face immediately split into two gaps, as if two unsymmetrical eyes had grown.

However, those "eyes" had no pupils and were bloody.

Immediately afterwards, another gap opened under the two "eyes", which was also filled with pure blood-red light.

This made the black figure finally have a "mouth".

It faced Bernadette, and the voice with obvious pain, as if resisting something, echoed around it:

"leave here!"

After Bernadette was pushed out more than ten meters, she easily stood on her feet, but did not follow the voice's order to leave the "Black Emperor" mausoleum. She stood there, staring at the central high platform, looking at the black The figure and expression showed a sadness that was difficult to conceal and did not want to conceal.

She can feel it,

She was already certain that the black figure was her father, the man who called himself "Caesar", Roselle Gustav.

In the next second, more cracks opened on the black figure, and blood-red flowers bloomed on different parts of the body from the head down.

This made Roselle seem like there was only a shadow left, and inside it was a blood-red thing that emitted pure brilliance.

Seeing this scene, Klein, who was above the gray fog, naturally thought of the red moon in the sky.

At this time, Roselle seemed to be transforming into a figure, trying to cover the red moon, but was torn open one after another, allowing more and more moonlight to penetrate into reality.

When these openings are connected, the black shadow will be completely split, and a brand new red moon will be born.

At that time, something terrifying is bound to happen.

At this moment, Roselle's black figure became a lot more illusory, and it seemed to have become some kind of illusion.

This made him look like he was isolated in another world, with an invisible barrier to reality.

Then, Roselle raised his shadowy right arm with difficulty and pinched his forehead.

The frequency of blood-red cracks on his body suddenly dropped to the extreme, but the "eyes" that existed before started to blink, one after another.

However, this did not have a bad influence on the surroundings, it seemed to be just a simple order change - the trend of blood-red cracks "new birth" was distorted to the original ones that were gradually active.

After completing this matter, Roselle raised his head, looked at Bernadette several dozen meters away, and laughed dryly and hoarsely:

"You have really become a big man in the mysterious world, and you can come here by yourself.

"Come here, let me see what my little princess looks like now."

Bernadette's eyes suddenly turned red, and she stepped forward.

Roselle laughed again:

"When I made you picture books, compiled teaching materials, and invented all kinds of small games, you were only a little old, and now you can save your poor old father.

"I remember that you liked all the clothes I designed for you when you were young, but unfortunately, when you grow up, you can no longer wear cake skirts..."

The great emperor rambled, as if he had come to the twilight years of his life, and always liked to recall the beautiful pictures of the past.

Bernadette walked faster and faster, and Klein above the gray mist frowned invisibly.

Suddenly, Emperor Roselle lowered his head a little and said very forcefully:

"Stop!"

There was unspeakable pain in his voice.

Bernadette froze for a moment, then quickly slowed down and stopped.

Indescribable sadness gradually revealed in her eyes as she looked at the shadow.

Roselle raised his head again and coughed lightly:

"Do you really want to ask why the "Dark Emperor"'s mausoleum should be engraved with the order and style of guidance that he has established. In fact, this is not necessary. I just want those who see me to remember my greatness..."

Before he finished speaking, the Great Emperor tightly held the armrest next to him with one hand, pressing his voice, and said in great pain:

"No, come close!

"I'm contaminated..."

The sadness in Bernadette's eyes grew a little thicker.

Her guess just now was finally confirmed.

At this moment, chaos appeared in the bright red gaps on Roselle's face, sometimes "closing" and sometimes "opening", and there was no longer a unified will.

The emperor seized the opportunity, straightened his body slightly, looked at Bernadette, and shouted with difficulty:

"Seal me!"

Seal... "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette repeated the word silently, and the blue eyes quickly became wet and covered with a faint mist.

Even if she has lived for many, many years, even if she is no longer the little girl she used to be, she still cannot contain the changes in her inner emotions at this moment.

However, she didn't ask the reason, and she didn't hesitate. After struggling a little, she raised her right hand firmly and unwaveringly, and pressed it against the pale metal mask.

Just as she has faced all the major events that "Element Dawn" has encountered over the years, she has made an unusually calm decision.

On the surface of "Pale Death", the metal instantly softened, and a new face was reorganized, with a pair of black eyes.

In these dark eyes, pale lines stood out, outlining a very complex and mysterious three-dimensional symbol, which was like a bird with abnormally long feathers, or a feathered snake with a coiled body.

This symbol absorbed the surrounding light, quickly became a solid body, then separated from Bernadette's eyes, stretched out his "body", and flew towards Roselle Gustav on the iron-black seat.

Along the way, this bizarre symbol made the surroundings darker and darker, causing the floor tiles and stone walls to weather and decay again, as if the god in charge of death had made the final judgment.

The falling gravel and the raised dust followed the materialized symbol, came to Roselle, and then coiled around, wrapping the rather illusory black figure that seemed to be in another world.

During this process, Roselle couldn't control himself several times and tried to leave the iron-black seat, but sat back again, not resisting the seal imposed by Bernadette.

As the symbol merged into his figure, he immediately became connected with the "pale death", saw the illusory god above countless undead, and saw the swollen body wandering in a dark river like a water ghost.

Roselle's breath disappeared immediately, and the cracked bright red gaps closed one after another.

Waiting in front of the great emperor is a peaceful sleep like the night.

And that symbol will be solidified in Roselle's figure, and will always exert influence until "Pale Death" no longer responds here.

In the blink of an eye, several blood-red gaps grew on Roselle's body. After his aura had decayed to the extreme, it gradually rejuvenated, fiercely resisting the materialized symbol.

Seeing this, Klein, who was above the gray fog, sighed, clenched his fist, and pressed his lower mouth.

The "curtain" that he was wearing was raised, and the entire "Origin Castle" was clearly "boiled".

Silently, Roselle's breath of new life began to disappear again.

After disappearing to a certain extent, it was reborn again, and then, affected by the "pale death", it continued to disappear.

Klein used the "Servant of Mysteries" Beyonder characteristic and the power of "Origin Castle" to directly "graft" the new life and death together, omitting the intermediate process.

In this way, Roselle's contamination cannot be recovered to the extent that it can break through the pale seal.

Then, Klein stretched out his right hand, mobilized the power of "Origin Castle", and outlined the mysterious symbol behind the "The Fool" high-back chair in front of him - Nayu half "eye without pupil" and half "twisted thread" "composition.

This symbol absorbed the breath of "Origin Castle" and quickly turned into an entity. With a wave of Klein's wrist, it fell into the prayer light spot representing Bernadette, and fell on Roselle's black figure, blending into it. inside his body.

——Whenever that kind of "grafting" is about to disappear, the symbols directly related to "The Fool" and "Origin Castle" will attract new power to complete the grafting again.

In the state of constantly passing away and being reborn, Roselle's pure shadow-like face had the outline of the facial features. Then, he looked up at the top of the mausoleum, as if he was looking at an infinite height.

He immediately retracted his gaze, looked at Bernadette, and said with a very weak voice:

"This seal is good, I can sleep peacefully..."

Having said that, he frowned slightly and asked in a changed tone:

"How did you dress like this, who taught you?"

Bernadette was in a trance, as if she had returned to her youth.

At that time, whenever she dressed up to go to the dances of other nobles, Roselle would ask a series of questions with a similar expression and a similar tone.

The fog in her eyes suddenly became obvious, and she could no longer control herself, and shouted in a low voice:

"dad……"

Roselle's face with only facial features instantly softened, then stiffened, and said sharply:

"leave.

"Never come back!"

Bernadette opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but it was already dark in front of her eyes, as if she saw the shadow of order.

The next second, she found herself back on the edge of the pristine island.

Bernadette stared blankly at the peak in the middle of the primitive island for a few seconds, then slowly turned around and walked towards the sea.

This time, she was no longer stubborn not to look back. Every few steps, she would stop and turn around to look.

Soon, she returned to the "Dawn", walked into the captain's room, and opened the room dedicated to collections.

At a glance, Bernadette saw volumes of picture books, stacks of textbooks, pieces of clothes, and skirts, chess that only a few people in this world could know, and neatly stacked building blocks toys.

With her back against the wooden door, she slowly shrank down and sat on the floor.

She looked up at the gloomy sky outside the captain's cabin window, pinched her lower lip with her right thumb and forefinger, and whistled a melodious, tactful, slightly sad, calming melody.

As the melody reverberated, drop after drop of water fell from Bernadette's face and dripped onto the surface of the floor.

I don't know how long it took, a voice that was pressed in the throat sounded in the captain's room:

"dad……"
