Durin's Diary

Chapter 766 Yearning
Negan Loval was giving a lecture to his students when he received the message from the messenger.

Faced with the news brought by the messenger, he seemed obliged to say: "Please tell Mr. Poole that I will immediately inform my colleagues and take all those who are willing to set foot in hell with me to Lille."

The young grassland elf messenger nodded. "Very good. Lord Durin is already in the most dangerous district in Lille. You have been granted amnesty. It is entirely voluntary whether you go or not."

His words made Negan silent for a moment: "I volunteered to go because I owe Lord Durin a favor that I will never be able to repay in my lifetime."

Yes, I owe Lord Du Lin a debt of gratitude.

After saying that, Negan returned to the classroom and started packing up the things on the desk.

In the audience, the class leader among his students stood up and said, "Teacher Negan, what's wrong with you?"

"Lord Durin is in Lille. There's an epidemic of unknown cause there. As a professional, I need to rush there."

These young students are all medical students. They will definitely see such evil things in the future, so there is no need to hide anything.

"Teacher Negan, will it be dangerous if you go over there?" asked a young prairie elf half-blood.

This sadness made Negan smile. He put the last document into his briefcase and looked at the podium facing the students sitting in rows.

At this moment, you could hear a pin drop in the entire lecture room.

Young people always say that disinfectant smells bad, and the epidemics on this land are always strange and bizarre. Negan has taught in this classroom for almost ten years, and many students have changed in the classroom. Some people couldn't stand the hardship and changed their majors, and some went back to inherit the family business. Most of the remaining young people are not the best students in the churches, but they are sincere in their hearts.

"Children, the message from Lord Durin didn't explain the situation. He just arrived and hasn't figured it out yet, but he understands the dangers of acute influenza. So he thought of me, your mentor. Why?"

Having said that, Negan reached out and pulled off the human skin mask on his face.

"I am a necromancer. I'm sorry if this might scare you."

Negan waited for the children's panicked screams.

But what he waited for was the cheers of these children.

He looked at the monitor, and the young man smiled. "We're all children of church members, so not many of us can see any problems. But the adults at home, after hearing your story, all said you had problems. But they also said that since you chose human society and the profession of professor, you definitely aren't the worst kind of person. They told us that as long as you don't have any problems, we can just pretend we haven't seen any."

"My grandfather once came to see you secretly. He said that you are not a bad person. He has lived for more than ninety years and this is the first time he has seen a chaotic neutral necromancer." said the grassland elf half-blood.

Looking at these young people in front of him, Negan felt a little embarrassed, but more moved.

He nodded. "So I am fortunate to be able to go to Lille. There, I can be sure that I will serve Lord Durin together with the elders of some of you. Perhaps this is a common virus spread, perhaps it is a man-made outbreak, perhaps... this is a disaster created by that existence."

At this point, Negan picked up a piece of chalk and said, "If it's the first two, then I'll be fine, but if it's the last one, there's a high chance that I'll... lose control, simply because necromancy is related to chaos. We can't change this, but I want to tell you."

He wrote a sentence on the blackboard with great effort.

·Fate has made us live like this, but I want to try to change my future.

He placed the chalk on the podium. "In the future, you will grow up and live like adults. You will face all kinds of hardships and the abuses of fate. But please don't forget why we are sitting here learning all this knowledge." Negan took the bag and said, "My class is over. Young people, remember your faith. Don't go astray like us. You should enjoy the sunshine."

He walked towards the classroom door until the prairie elf half-breed called him.

The little man took off a string of wooden beads from his neck: "This was given to me by an elder from Changtang. He said that these beads can protect every kind life."

"I am a dead man, kid." Negan looked at the child in front of him and shook his head.

He could feel the energy contained in the long string of beads in front of him. It must have been made by the legendary Lord Chang Tang for this child. It had great power, as if it could purify chaos at will.

"But Professor, you are really amazing now. Not everyone dares to face his or her own end, so take it with you. If you really think you are a good person, take it with you and let it bless you. This is the only gift Pierre can give you." The child said with tears in his eyes.

Negan finally nodded, lowered his head, and let the child put on the string of wooden beads for him.

"Thank you, little Pierre." At this moment, he finally reached out and gently patted the little head of the child in front of him.

It's good to bring it with me. If I really can't maintain my true self and lose control under the gaze of the evil god... let this sacred bead purify me.

"Stand up!" The monitor's voice came from behind: "Professor, be careful on your journey."

The young people in the class added in unison.

As a dead man, Negan could no longer cry, but at this moment, he still felt a trace of warm liquid flowing from the corner of his eyes.

He wiped it and then put the colorless and transparent liquid into his mouth.

Then, he tasted the taste of salt for the first time in a long time.

………………

In Copenhagen, a human stood on the Adventurer's Guild's mission board, looking at the recruitment order belonging to Durin.

In Oslo, a dwarf looked up at the Adventurer's Guild's task board, where was the recruitment order from Duke Durin.

In Rotterdam in the lowlands, in Perugia in the middle of Farol, in Corsica, in Sicily, in the great woodlands.

There are always people stopping in front of those adventure guild task boards of different styles and sizes.

They were either skeptical or timid, but they all reached out in the end.

Because the content of the recruitment order was too beautiful, so beautiful that these solitary people who wanted to live like human beings again had to take a gamble.

It’s just because everything Lord Durin said is really too beautiful.

The beauty makes these people yearn for it.
