Chapter 2458 [Soul Nightmare]

"What?"

In the alchemy workshop, Juechen Tianping stared blankly at the girl in front of him with smooth golden hair. Although she was dressed simply, she still couldn't hide her natural beauty. He asked in astonishment, "Teach you necromancy?!"

Elfen Lenore nodded vigorously and showed a generous and sweet smile: "Yes, I want to learn the magic of the dead, sister, can you teach me?"

"That's definitely not possible!"

The Libra girl finally realized that she was not hallucinating and was shocked. She said in a trembling voice: "Why do you want to learn something good at such a young age? Why do you have to learn to be a necromancer who is hated by everyone?!"

The girl, with her hands folded elegantly and a calm and gentle expression, almost made the coarse cloth dress look like an evening gown. She sighed silently and looked into the eyes of the necromancer with her crystal clear eyes: "I'm sorry, although it does sound a bit abrupt, I actually have my reasons. Ah, I haven't asked for your name yet--"

"The Absolute Balance."

The necromancer sister also sighed and said helplessly: "Although it is a stage name, you can just call me that for now. Let's talk business first. I must warn you, you... uh..."

"Alfin."

The girl gracefully lifted her skirt and said softly, "Alphin A. Reberia Priscilla Lionel, Libra sister, just call me Alphin."

Sister Libra, who rarely had the opportunity to hear such a long name, was stunned for a long time before she nodded stiffly and said, "Oh, oh."

Elfen maintained a proper smile and said, "So, Sister Tianping, please continue."

"Ah? Oh, yes, keep talking. Yes, you have to keep talking."

The Libra girl's thoughts accidentally wandered to "How devastated I would be if I was punished to copy my name at school." She clenched her hands in embarrassment. After calming down, she continued to advise the girl in front of her: "I must warn you, Sister Elfin, although you may have some difficulties, most necromancers also have difficulties. Unfortunately, our 'difficulties' generally come from our identity as [Necromancers]."

Elfen nodded and agreed softly, "Yes, I heard that the reputation of necromancers in various parts of the continent is very regrettable, but I always think that it is obviously a prejudice, and after meeting you, Sister Tianping, I have become more determined in my opinion."

"I'm sorry, but I disagree with that."

However, the Libra girl did not intend to play by the rules. Instead, she shook her finger and said seriously, "I generally agree with the saying that 'power is just a tool, and tools are neither good nor evil', but as a genuine necromancer, I think it is difficult for this kind of power to make people 'not evil'. It's okay for an outsider like me who has no ambitions, but for local kids like you... the possibility of you learning to despise life and death through necromancy is too high."

Elfin pursed his lips, was silent for a few seconds, and then said firmly: "I don't think I will."

"I……"

Standing behind Elfen, holding the corner of his clothes with a worried look on her face, Reina also muttered softly: "I don't think Aibao will do that either."

"Correct."

Dagran also mustered up the courage and shouted to the witch sister who had no authority to begin with: "Aibao won't do that!"

"Why are you calling me Aibao?"

Lot glared at Dagran sharply, then turned to look at the witch sister who was not a bad person: "Elfin is a good child now, and he will be a good person in the future."

Not only that, even Lisa, who was ordered to shut up by Luna, pursed her lips and said softly: "Although I don't know what happened, I think Ai Bao is Lisa's best friend..."

"Don't think so yet."

Luna patted the harpy loli's head and said calmly: "Watch the pot carefully, you can put the next material yourself."

"!!!"

Upon hearing this, Lisa immediately pursed her lips and stared at the crucible in front of her, her big watery eyes not blinking, for fear that she would mess up the potion that her instructor had already completed the most difficult part of.

As for Juechen Tianping, he looked at the little kids in front of him seriously, raised his index finger and said seriously: "Listen carefully, I can see that Elfen has some unspeakable secrets, and you kids must know something, but I still insist, you can learn anything, but don't learn to be a necromancer, this unfortunate profession is too complicated, you can't control it."

Elfin raised his hand to stop his friends from continuing to "argue with reason", gave them a serious look, and said softly: "Then, can you listen to the reasons why I have this idea?"

"of course can."

The Libra girl nodded generously, and then added: "Although I am not one of them, I have seen too many geniuses and precocious students in elementary school, middle school, and high school. So even if you are a hundred times smarter than me, a hundred times more talented, and a hundred times more mature... it shouldn't be the case. In short, explaining these factors in advance will not make me change my mind."

"I know very well that I am just a little girl who can only pretend, and I don't think I am that great."

Elfen shook his head, then after a brief silence he took a deep breath and said seriously, "My parents are dead."

"I regret."

"I was the only one who survived the massacre."

"You're lucky."

"If my parents hadn't held me down and prevented those evil people from seeing me, I would have died too."

"Want revenge?"

"Everyone in Skolke has avenged me. When I was rescued, those who killed everyone had already been killed by Uncle Batu and his men."

"Good kill."

"I still remember the feeling of despair and powerlessness as my father and mother's bodies slowly grew colder."

"They're dead."

"I know, but they died in a very uneasy way. They were worried about me. They have always been like that."

"You have to learn to be strong, kid."

"I know, Sister Libra, I'm very strong."

"If you were truly strong, you wouldn't want to reverse life and death."

"I didn't think about reversing life and death."

"……what?"

Juechen Tianping blinked and said in astonishment: "So you don't want to revive your favorite parents?"

"That's not the case, Sister Libra. I've already said that I'm very strong."

Elfen smiled and said helplessly, "I also said that they are worried about me."

"Um?!"

It was not until then that Juechen Tianping suddenly realized what Alfen meant. He widened his eyes and said, "You mean, they... they also..."

"Yes."

Elfen nodded gently and admitted generously: "Although there is no evidence, I can feel that they have never left me and have always been by my side."

"Oh my god, it's possessed by a ghost!"

The Libra girl made an embarrassing sound at first, then slapped her cheeks vigorously, and took out a black-covered, ridiculously thick textbook from her bag, which looked like it could be used to attack a city. She flipped through the book while mumbling, "Let me see... the banshee isn't right... the vengeful spirit isn't right... the bloodthirsty demon isn't right... the abomination isn't right either, it doesn't even have a physical body... ah, this is right, the Soul-Haunted Nightmare!"

Elfin twisted his fingers nervously and asked as calmly as possible: "What is that?" "It's a natural undead spirit. The threat is not great, but it is very difficult and troublesome."

The Libra girl flipped through the textbook with an anxious look on her face. She finally skipped over at least thirty pages of exercises and found a detailed introduction to [Haunted Soul Nightmare]. She read it quickly while using concise language as much as possible to save words: "If nothing unexpected happens, it should be that your parents' mental and physical state at the time of death formed a kind of 'linkage' with your almost collapsed you at the time. I guess they must have had a lot of wounds at the time, because the blood of blood relatives is the best natural medium for the formation of Haunted Soul Nightmare. Their obsession and vitality disappeared with the blood, but before 'death' completely came, they were transferred to you through the relationship of blood relatives."

Elfen pursed his lips, and his cheeks, which had rarely turned red, turned pale again: "What... does this mean?"

"What I mean is that when you needed, relied on, and missed your parents the most, they, who were also reluctant to let you go, had already passed away, but their obsession was attached to you through the medium of 'blood'. As for the specific manifestation..."

The Libra girl closed the textbook, looked up at Alfen, and said seriously, "You dream about them often, right?"

"Not 'often', Sister Libra."

Elfen smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying softly: "I dream about them every day. They are so desperate in my dreams. Even if I tell them that I am happy now, it still cannot dispel their pain."

"Because the [Haunted Nightmare] will be forever trapped in the obsession before its death. However, the cases I have seen here generally use 'hatred' as the carrier, such as the elderly who were killed by their loved ones because of inheritance issues, etc."

Although she didn't have solid knowledge, the Libra girl, who had solid reference books, sighed, "So in most cases, people whose dreams were invaded by [Soul Nightmare] didn't survive in the end."

Reina, who had been listening quietly from the beginning, could no longer hold back and looked up at the witch sister in fear and asked: "So, could it be that Ai Bao is also..."

"Elfen is different, because her parents' obsession comes from their 'love' for her, so they naturally won't hurt her. But even so, being possessed by a spirit for a long time... especially a spirit with nightmare characteristics is definitely not a good thing."

Juechen Tianping put away the textbook, looked up and down at the girl named Elfen in front of him, and said softly: "Your health is very poor, right?"

"Very bad."

The first person to give the answer was not Elfin himself, but Luna Lynch, who was obviously more authoritative in this regard and was feeding the golden fireflies at the moment.

"No matter what, this problem must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise the child will become weak and die."

The professionally trained necromancer touched his chin and said anxiously, "Even if it looks okay now, in a few years, when the [Haunted Nightmare] absorbs enough negative emotions in the dream, they will become stronger. Correspondingly, Alfin will become weaker and eventually die in this harmless 'missing'."

"Oh."

While feeding the worms, Luna asked without looking up, "So do you have any good ideas?"

"Although it has the characteristics of a nightmare, the essence of the [Haunted Nightmare] is not a nightmare, but a possessed spirit with a very simple initial structure."

Juechen Tianping pulled out a delicate bone staff from his sleeve and said solemnly, "I will find a way to make the [Soul Nightmare] attached to her body appear, and then... Sister Yuekui."

"what?"

The cat girl sorcerer, who was also extremely nervous, was frightened and asked in confusion: "What's wrong? What's wrong with me?!"

"You are a sorcerer, so you should be able to destroy the spirits at the occult level. So after I make them appear, I ask you to take action immediately without hurting the child."

Juechen Tianping lit up the bone staff in his hand, held it tightly in the air and waved it gently, saying to Alfen seriously: "Don't worry, those two [Soul Nightmares] are not your parents, but their obsessions before they died, so even if you destroy them, you should not feel sad about it."

However, the girl took a step back with a sad expression, shook her head and said, "I don't want to hurt them, they are like my..."

"Your mom and dad are gone, honey."

Juechen Tianping sighed, then his eyes focused slightly and he activated his magic: "If you ask me, even if it's for them, you have to... Damn! The spell failed!?"

Puff——

Then, accompanied by a sound like a muffled fart, the soul fire at the end of Juechen Tianping's bone staff went out without any warning.

"what happened!"

Chao Yue Kui looked at the pale Jue Chen Tian Ping nervously and said in surprise: "Are those two eyes on Ai Bao too powerful?!"

As a result, the latter shook his head stiffly and said dryly: "No."

"no?"

Chao Yue Kui was startled again and asked hurriedly: "What is that?"

"Proficiency..."

"what?"

"Skill proficiency..."

"What happened to skill proficiency?"

"Skill proficiency is not enough QAQ!!!"

"what?"

"My specialization level is not high enough! So my spellcasting success rate is so low!"

"why?"

"Because it's inappropriate..."

"What's inappropriate?"

"Any specialization other than bone control is not suitable! Grandma Surk told me so! I'm not afraid of ghosts, zombies, or viruses, but I'm a mess whether it's summoning spirits, flesh and blood, or plague. My proficiency level doesn't increase at all! My specialization level doesn't increase at all!"

"Ah this."

"I don't want to either! I don't want to tinker with those skeletons every day! But I can't help it. My bone control is already level 45, and the other three specializations are less than level 5!"

"Uh...Tianping, calm down."

"I can't calm down. My embarrassment is the least of my worries, but what about the [Haunted Soul] on that child?"

"Easy to handle."

"Ms. Luna, what did you say?"

"I said it's easy."

"Easy? What should we do?"

"Take medicine to make up for it."

"?"

"If your body is well-replenished, you won't die of weakness."

"???"
