Let's play cards! In a different world of swords and magic

You Ling, who was tightly embraced, struggled hard to break free, then slapped both of his palms on Queldes's cold cheeks at the same time, fixing her gaze towards his eyes.

"Look carefully, I'm not a ghost, not a dead spirit, and certainly not a spirit! I'm the real, living You Ling!"

"Alive, Yu Ling?"

"Why, have you ever seen a more real ghost than the real one?"

"Why, why?"

"There's no 'why'. All you need to know is that I'm back, Queldes!"

"You Ling...are you still alive?"

"To be alive is better than your life!"

"I am still dreaming. You Ling, you should..."

Damn, the cycle is back again. No matter how hard Yu Ling tried to explain, Quildes felt like he was dreaming.

Perhaps in the past two years, Quildes had hypnotized himself into being the murderer of You Ling in his subconscious. He even couldn't accept the fact that You Ling was still alive.

You Ling suddenly felt that he came at the wrong time.

It would be easier to explain if he showed up when Queldes was awake instead of when she was sleeping.

"You Ling, use that trick." In the chest pocket, the small Christa was pressed against You Ling's chest, reminding him in a low voice.

"Which move?"

"It's the secret that your fiancée just whispered to you!"

"Oh, you mean that?"

If you think about it carefully, maybe it will really work.

If this is a galgame, the additional hidden options added after the hidden conditions of comforting Heidi are triggered should have appeared in front of You Ling at this moment.

【Insult her! 】

You Ling took a deep breath.

"Quildes, you big brainless idiot!"

"Huh?" Caught off guard by You Ling's scolding, Quildes was visibly stunned.

"Don't just assume I'm dead! Can't you think about it a little more? Are you a single-celled plankton?"

"Single-celled plankton?"

Although Queldes was being insulted by You Ling and had a stunned expression, his cheeks seemed to be getting redder under the moonlight.

"Don't be fooled by Lady Queldes's cold appearance. But if someone insults her, she will secretly get excited. She is a hidden masochist."

This guy, is he really excited?

Damn, this is too weird.

Try cursing a few more times.

"Idiot, idiot, stupid, brainless, unhappy...ah, it's so cold!"

Half of You Ling's body was frozen by the surging magic power of Queldes.

"Have you cursed enough?" Queldes' eyes turned cold again.

It was so cold, just like when You Ling saw her for the first time.

Wait, is Queldes angry? Didn't we agree that masochists get excited when being insulted?

At the same time, Heidi was swinging on the swing in the courtyard, with her fingers on her chin, and suddenly remembered something.

"Oh no, I think I forgot to remind Yurei. If I insult him too much, Lord Queldes might really get angry. Well, never mind, no one should be that stupid."

No one would be stupid enough to insult the emperor of the empire continuously.

-------------------------

-------------------------

"You Ling, you are actually still alive."

"Haven't I told you this many times?"

Although the excessive insults angered Quilders, fortunately, Quilders finally regained consciousness and realized that You Ling was not dead and the You Ling in front of him was not a dream.

At this time, the lights in the room were on, and Queldes did not continue to sleep in bed. Instead, he put on the emperor's coat and stood in front of the desk.

"You Ling, I am really, really sorry for you."

Even after regaining consciousness, Quildes was still apologizing to himself.

"If you really felt sorry for me, you shouldn't have been so decisive just now."

Now half of You Ling's body is still in a paralyzed state with declining consciousness because it has just been thawed.

"These are two different things." Recalling the series of insults that You Ling had just hurled at him, Queldes turned his head away, trying hard to hide the blush on his face.

You Ling said: "In short, if you can figure out that it wasn't you who harmed me, and stop falling into that groundless self-blame, that would be a great help."

Based on Sylvia's instructions and his fiancée Heidi's expectations, You Ling's mission tonight is to help Queldes get rid of his guilt and untie his knot.

"Perhaps, the one who really misunderstood is you, You Ling." Queldes' expression gradually became gloomy.

"Did I understand it wrong?"

Just now, You Ling had explained clearly to Queldes that he was forcibly transferred to the Holy Land of Elves two years later by some unknown force during the summoning accident at the academy.

What Queldes did was just to propose that he be temporarily transferred to Axis College.

The real cause of the incident had nothing to do with her at all.

"You Ling, you told me not to blame myself. But if I say it, I am not as innocent as you think."

"Quildes, what does this mean?"

"I actually know the truth about the unknown force that transferred you away. You may think that I transferred you to Axis College just to give you a chance to enter the Holy Land of Elves as soon as possible. But in fact, I concealed the truth from you at that time."

The concealment is also the real reason why Quildes has been blaming himself for the past two years.

The truth that has been causing Queldes pain is more complicated than You Ling imagined.

Only then did You Ling finally understand why Sylvia had asked him so solemnly in the cathedral during the day.

""I'm counting on you, Yu Ling. Queldes will return to the palace tonight. Go see her alone. I think she will explain everything to you.""

Now is the time for Queldes to explain everything.

"You Ling, do you still remember that night two years ago when I told you about the planetary-level gods?"

That night two years ago was the night when Quildes first kidnapped You Ling and brought him back to the palace, beat him until he could not move, and the two of them stayed in bed and had a "long talk".

For Quildes, it happened two years ago, but for You Ling, it happened less than two weeks ago, so You Ling naturally remembered it clearly.

"Are you referring to the god who created the planet, Queldes, whom you met in the Holy Land of the Elves?"

At that time, Queldes described the God of Creation - a sacred, great, and maternal figure. Once you see him, it will be engraved in your soul. He is the strongest god and the end of all salvation.

At the same time, the encounter with the God of Creation is also the reason why Queldes is so persistent in pursuing the power of God.

"At that time, I told you that I had gained some truth about the Star Creator from just a few lines of epic poetry. Only by integrating all the current summoning methods in the Elven Continent can we have the opportunity to use the power of the Star Creator."

"You mean I'm not wrong?"

The same dialogue, the same way of answering. Queldes also knew long ago that You Ling, who had crossed the boundary between the academy and the continent and mastered the three summoning methods, was an indispensable existence in the pursuit of the path of the Creation Star God.

But Queldes, as the emperor of the empire, also knew that in fact all the summoning methods in the Elf Continent were not limited to fusion, hyper and synchronization.

After the duel with You Ling, Quildes saw another hope in You Ling.

If You Ling is allowed to continue growing, one day he will touch upon the taboo of the fourth summoning method.

But that is the summoning method that was firmly sealed by the God of Creation.

"In fact, I know that the power that teleported you to the future two years later is the Star Creation God that exists in the Holy Land of the Elves."

"The Star Creation God..."

So, the girl with goat horns on her head who appeared in front of You Ling during the transmission gap is the legendary Star God.

"I used you, You Ling. I used your potential to lure out the God of Creation. I never expected this would be the outcome."

Betting on the possibility of Yu Ling's growth, Quildes originally thought that by sending Yu Ling to Axis Academy and touching upon the forbidden summoning method, he would be able to lead the God of Creation out of the Holy Land of Elves.

However, the ending was exactly the opposite. Instead of the Star Creation God being lured out, You Ling was forcibly teleported to the Holy Land of Elves, and the timeline was shifted by two years.

Since then, Queldes has always blamed himself, thinking that it was because he used You Ling as bait to lure out the God of Creation, which caused him to disappear from this world.

"I am not as innocent as you think, You Ling."

"So that's what happened."

It was two days after he traveled back in time that You Ling finally learned the truth from Queldes tonight.

It turns out that the mysterious power that transferred himself was the god who created the planet.

It turned out that Queldes suggested to me that I transfer to Axis in order to let me lure out the God of Creation.

"I understand, Queldes."

But in fact, there is no essential difference for You Ling.

Even if he did not use the top-level amplification summoning array of Axis Academy, but only used the ordinary summoning array used once a week by Fusheng Academy, it was only a matter of time before You Ling came into contact with the forbidden summoning method.

Perhaps Queldes's original purpose was not pure, but now instead of caring about these, You Ling cares more about how to save everything.

"You Ling, I won't ask for your forgiveness either."

"I forgive you, Queldes."

"Eh? What did you say?"

"I said, I forgive you."

"Why, you can so easily..."

"Of course, there are conditions. You must help me, Queldes. As I mentioned just now, I want to activate the magic of rewinding time."

Standing on the moral high ground, the emperor of the empire owed him a huge favor. This kind of opportunity is hard to come by, so You Ling must seize it firmly.

"As the key to activate the Great Magic of Recall, we are still short of two Level 12 NO. cards at the super end. Queldes, you must know this.

If even the emperor of the empire doesn't know the clues about the 12th-order super NO., then all You Ling can do next is to look for a needle in a haystack.

"As the key to activate the retrospective magic, the twelfth-level No. card."

Since the spread of the Great Void cannot be stopped at present, Queldes can't think of any solution for the time being except activating the backtracking magic.

Or maybe, Queldes thought, if he could go back two years, he might be able to prevent the mistake he made.

Both publicly and privately, the activation of retrospective magic is the most appropriate option at this time.

“Perhaps, there is a place that can meet this condition.”

"where."

"The Emperor's Treasury."

Along with the Emperor's Ring, it is a legendary magic item used by successive emperors of the Saint Varian Empire, which also worships power.

Of course, compared to the "Emperor's Ring" that can be carried around and seals in power, the "Emperor's Treasury" is another legendary magic item that cannot be moved by itself.

To be more precise, the "Emperor's Treasury" is more like a special space that stores the legendary powers of emperors of all dynasties.

Under the guidance of Queldes, You Ling came to the deepest part of the Imperial Palace, in front of a stone gate carved with a giant imperial emblem.

"This is the Emperor's Treasury?"

Just from outside the stone gate, You Ling could feel the solemnity that was transmitted through the space.

"Compared to the Emperor's Ring, it can only inherit part of the power of the previous emperor. The Emperor's Treasury contains the card decks of all the emperors of the empire."

"All the Emperor's decks."

No wonder the Emperor’s treasury also contains legendary magic items.

Normally, after a duelist dies, he can only leave behind one card. However, in the Imperial Treasury, the card decks of all the emperors of the empire are preserved.

"Although the card decks of all previous emperors are preserved in their entirety, once you enter the Emperor's Treasury, you can only pick one card from the card decks of previous emperors and take it away. And you only have one chance to do so."
