Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 142 A Person Who Lived for a Long Time

Chapter 142 A Person Who Lived for a Long Time
The rich colors gradually returned to normal, and in a flash, Azik found himself in another place.

A mottled old castle stood before them. The outer walls of the castle had collapsed, and the remaining walls were covered with green plants. Time had left many traces on the castle.

here……

Azik unconsciously took two steps forward and stopped to stare at the ancient castle. His eyes were sometimes deep and sometimes blurred, as if he was wandering between reality and dreams.

Suddenly, Azik groaned in pain, bent down unconsciously, raised his hand to cover his forehead, his facial muscles twisted, and veins on his arms bulged.

"What happened to Mr. Azik?" Klein didn't dare to activate his clairvoyance and could only ask Eve worriedly.

"Some of his memories have returned," Eve crossed her arms and stared at Azik in front of her. Her ocean-blue eyes were deep and profound. "This is the consequence of forcibly awakening his memories. It's not serious."

Hearing this, Klein felt relieved, but his eyes were still fixed on Mr. Azik.

Azik's expression was painful, but he slowly straightened up, lowered his hand covering his forehead, pointed at the castle, and said as if in a dream:
"I've seen this castle in my dreams."

"Back then, it was still intact, with solid outer walls and a tall spire."

"I remember there was a stable, there was a well..."

"I remember there was a training ground there. My child, a boy of seven or eight, loved running around with a broadsword taller than him, saying he wanted to be a knight in the future..."

"My wife always complains that the castle is too dark. She likes the sunshine and the warmth..."

Azik stopped mumbling and walked towards the door, showing no sign of waiting for Klein and Eve.

Mr. Azik's current condition seems a little off... Klein frowned slightly and thought...Are these the consequences of forcibly awakening his memories?

But since my elder sister said it wasn't serious, then it must be not serious. He would never lie about such things...

Eve followed Azik into the castle. Seeing this, Klein immediately gripped his cane and followed.

Without anyone to lead the way, Azik found the mechanism with ease and opened the secret door leading to the basement.

The three of them walked down the stairs and came to a room where a coffin was placed.

Unlike before, the coffin was already closed. Klein guessed that it must have been done by Frye, as that was his professional ethics as a "corpse collector."

Under the gazes of Eve and Klein, Azik slowly walked to the coffin and opened a small gap.

Eve stared at the coffin. As the coffin lid opened little by little, the scene inside slowly appeared before her eyes.

He stared at the headless bones in the coffin for a long time, and suddenly let out a cry of grief.

Deng Deng Deng!
Dull footsteps sounded in the room.

Azik took a few steps back with a heavy heart, stumbling. Klein wanted to go forward and support him, but before he could get close, Azik stumbled and fell, sliding against the wall.

He covered his face with his hands and sat dejectedly, the surroundings suddenly becoming darker.

Eve took two steps forward, walked in front of Azik, bent down, and put her hand on his shoulder.

In an instant, the room returned to normal.

Is this considered an angel-level battle... Klein secretly breathed a sigh of relief, using complaints to soothe his nervous heart.

"The man who took your child's skull is dead."

Eve said. Azik and Klein were both stunned.

Klein looked at Eve, expressing his doubts with his eyes.

"You did it?"

Eve shook her head and said, "I didn't do it, but he did die in front of me."

Azik raised his head and looked at Eve, then supported himself on the wall with his right hand and slowly stood up.

"Sorry for the loss of composure," Azik said sincerely, "Can you tell me the details?"

"He was frightened to death," Eve replied.

Klein suddenly felt his scalp tingle, his eyes widened slightly, and he thought uncomfortably, "If he didn't have a heart attack, then this is a truly bizarre way to die. What terrifying thing must he have seen in his lifetime to be frightened to death?"

"But your child's skull can't be recovered," Eve continued.

Azik looked gloomy. No one would be happy to know that their child's skull was taken away after death.

He looked back at the coffin in the middle of the room, his sorrow bursting out uncontrollably. Azik stepped forward, placed his hands on the coffin lid, and slowly and firmly closed the coffin.

"I regret that I cannot avenge him personally," Azik said with a wry smile, "and I'm glad to hear of his death."

After a while, he turned around. Perhaps he had adjusted his mood, or perhaps not. He said to Klein, "I sense the power here that is causing your destiny to be out of harmony."

The power that makes my destiny unharmonious...

In an instant, Klein understood the truth of the matter and connected the fragmented facts together.

It turns out that the special properties in Megose's body come from Mr. Azik's child...

Megose has not returned to Tingen yet. Her condition requires long-term isolation and observation, but Megose's family is still in Tingen and is also the focus of observation. The captain will receive some news from the temple.

Ordinary people cannot give birth to the offspring of the evil god, so that guy took the skull of Mr. Azik's child and made Megose an extraordinary person.

Therefore, the reason why Megose's mental state was so bad was not only because of the influence of the offspring of the evil god, but also because she did not take the low-sequence potion, skipped the low-sequence, and directly took the medium-sequence potion.

After Azik finished speaking, he turned to Eve and stared at her for a long time. Finally, he curled the corners of his lips and said with a tone that was both lighthearted and heavy, "Ms. Eve, we really knew each other before."

"As I recall, you were this child's history teacher," Azik said, stroking the coffin with a gentle expression, like a loving elder. "But you always liked to tell him some unrecorded historical stories. They were very interesting, and my wife enjoyed them too. She would sit in on the classes as a supervisor."

Azik reminisced as he spoke, a look of nostalgia and tenderness in his eyes.

"History teacher, flower shop owner..." He sighed, "Perhaps in the future, I can discover more of your identities."

Klein's gaze followed Azik to Eve.

Eve shrugged, unaffected by their gazes, and said, "Maybe."

"Perhaps I have truly lived for a very, very long time, and so has Miss Eve," Azik said in a low voice, as if suppressing himself. "I must have paid a price to have such a long lifespan, surviving from the end of the Fourth Epoch until now..."

That's not a problem... Eve thought to herself.

Mr. Azik, don't you really consider whether you are still considered a "human"? Klein complained in his heart.
