Chapter 19

Following the guidance of the ring, Ed found a half-open door from which bright light shone.

But what surprised Ed was the decorative painting carved on the door.The same picture as the shrine below the Kasamedin library, the four main elemental gods surround the scales, surrounded by manjusawa decorations.

In fact, this should be a matter of course. The position pointed by the ring is naturally related to the God of Harmony.

Without further hesitation, Ed walked into the gate, looking at the decoration inside, it should be a bedroom.When he saw Rex and Casared, he couldn't help screaming.

"So it's you, half-breed dark elf, Ed Paril." Casared smiled and called out Ed's name.

"... High Priest." Ed saluted respectfully.

"I'm no longer the high priest." Casared sighed. "A few days ago, I received an oracle from the God of Darkness and replaced Andare as the highest priest of the Dark Temple of the Dark Elf."

"What!" Ed exclaimed, "This...isn't the God of Darkness sealed, how could..."

"Hmph, what is sealed, as the most favored race of the God of Darkness, don't you think you have discovered the lies of the Church of Light!" Casared yelled angrily.

Ed fell silent.Indeed, if the God of Darkness is really sealed, then it should be impossible for the Dark Temple to have new priests or priests or even the highest priest.So, what was it that was sealed under the Flandian Temple back then?

"What's on your neck?" Casared felt the flowers trembling slightly in his hand, and only then did he discover the necklace Ed was hanging around his neck. To be precise, it should be the ring.Walking up to Ed, he picked up the ring and looked at it carefully.

The shape of this ring is very strange. It is composed of an alien "ten" and a pair of wings spread by a god. The horizontal line in the middle of the "ten" is very long.

"Don't move." Realizing that Ed wanted to resist, Casared warned.

Seeing Ed being restrained, Rex didn't care at all, he just glanced at the stone bed with nostalgia, and then left here.When he got to the gate, he saw Lacey waiting on the sidelines kicking stones on the ground.

Without asking how long he had been waiting, Rex stepped forward, took Lacey's hand, and left together.

After looking at it for a while, Casared really couldn't figure out what the ring was, but it echoed the flower, no matter what, it was definitely not an ordinary thing. "Where did you get this ring?"

"...I got it by accident." Ed subconsciously concealed the matter of Idakel and the God of Harmony.

Casared looked at him suspiciously, but did not continue to ask.After pondering for a while, he handed the flower in his hand to Ed, "Since this thing is destined for you, I will give it to you. Be careful, this thing has a history of tens of thousands of years."

"What!" When Ed heard this, he was in a hurry and almost dropped the flower on the ground. "This, this is a flower tens of thousands of years ago!"

"That's right~ It's stored in that dark compartment over there. For tens of thousands of years, no one has touched it." Casared smiled, "That guy must have something to do with it."

"Who?" Could it be Rex?Ed thought of the person standing by the stone bed when he first came in.

"Hehe~" At this moment, the whole bedroom began to shake violently. "Tsk, those idiots of the Illuminati Church! Hurry up and leave, this place is no longer safe." After speaking, Casared threw a black spar, and a teleportation circle instantly appeared on the ground, knocking him down. Sent to nowhere.

The shaking ground and the falling stones kept collapsing, leaving Ed with nowhere to hide.He had no choice but to put the flowers in his hand into the space bag and crush the teleportation scroll.When Ed returned to school through the teleportation circle, he saw Reya and Lumer waiting outside the circle.

Ed was relieved to see that they were all right. "Fortunately, you are all right."

The two glanced at each other, and Lu Mo said, "After we separated, somehow, we walked out of the maze and returned to the temple, where we met people from the Illuminati Church, and then followed them."

Rhea continued, "They seem to be looking for something there."

Right here, the teleportation array glowed again, and Rossel also returned. "Where is your highness! Where is your highness!" As soon as he came out, he looked for Rex everywhere like crazy.

"Calm down, they haven't come back yet, but they're sure to be fine!" Ed said while asking Lumer and Rhea to hold him down, "Just wait here."

"Huh...huh..." Rossel finally calmed down, waved away the person holding him, walked to the edge of the teleportation circle, and stared at the teleportation circle.

The Dark Temple finally completely collapsed, and the mist that filled the pit gradually became thinner until it completely disappeared.

"...I'm sorry..." Lacey whispered.

"That's not your fault, they will be very happy to watch you grow up..." Rex embraced Lacey, comforting him silently.

Lacey shed crystal tears with a smiling face.

"Go back." After Lacey nodded, Rex looked at the big pit that was already clearly visible again, and said silently, "Waltney..." Then, he crushed the scroll in his hand and disappeared in a ray of light.

And in the big pit, from the position of the collapsed dark temple, clear water continuously emerged from a distance.

With a long life, Rossel never cared about time.Now, for the first time, he felt such a torment in such a short period of time.He stared at the teleportation array, for fear of missing something.

Finally, after the unique light of the teleportation array flashed, Rex appeared in front of them with Lacey in his arms.

"Your Highness!" Rosel was the first to rush up, but was stopped by Rex.

"Don't make noise, he's asleep." Rex said softly, looking tenderly at Lacey in his arms, "I'll take him back first."

"Your Highness, Your Highness!" Under Rex's stern eyes, Rossel lowered his voice, "Please follow me back to Falaine."

The footsteps just stopped slightly, "I will take Lacey back, but not now." After finishing speaking, he ignored Rossel and left here.

"...Damn it!" Rosell finally lost his composure completely, and smashed his fist to the ground, instantly forming a pit deep for one person.

"You better calm down." Ed comforted, "Rex has always been like this, and no one cares except Lacey."

"Rex was kind to people before." Rhea said with a wry smile. "After something happened, he became more and more indifferent. He didn't like contact with others, and he didn't care about other people's affairs."

"...How could it be? His Royal Highness, he has always been a very kind and gentle person, how could it be possible!" Roser couldn't believe that His Royal Highness whom he watched growing up would turn out like this.

The three looked at each other, and finally, Lu Mo spoke. "I don't care what your identity is or how good your relationship with Rex was before, but now, I advise you not to mess with him, and don't have any bad thoughts about Lacey in the future, otherwise, Rex will not I'll forgive you. That's all I've said, and do your own thing."

After finishing speaking, the three of them left separately, leaving only Roser with a shocked face.

In the Temple of Harmony, Idaker still knelt in front of the crystal coffin and prayed.

"You came."

"The principal said, if I complete what you entrusted to me, I can achieve my wish." Ed stood not far away, and said what Victor told him.

Idaker stood up silently, looked up at the statue of the God of Harmony, "Did you see that balance?"

"Scale?" Ed also turned his gaze to the statue, and looked carefully, only to find that the necklace pendant on the statue's neck was a balance, the same as the one painted on the gate of the temple.

"This time, what did you find?" Idaker's indifferent voice reminded Ed of the things he still put in the space bag.He took out the flower that was said to have gone through tens of thousands of years and was indeed still as bright as ever.

Ed couldn't imagine what kind of magic could keep the flower alive for so long. "What's this?"

"That's a token of love from the God of Creation to the God of Harmony." Idakel stepped forward, took the flowers from Ed, and held them carefully with both hands, for fear of breaking them a little.Then, he walked back to the crystal coffin, and placed the flower on the crystal coffin, five petals, surrounded by a basket of red stamens, seemed to be responding to something, gently swaying.And at this moment, the flowers withered, and then turned into dust, blown away by the wind from nowhere.

"This..." Seeing that Yi Dakel didn't make any moves, Ed didn't continue to say anything.He was just thinking about that flower, and he didn't look at it carefully before, but now, he suddenly felt, as if he had seen it somewhere before, such a red flower with a basket of stamens...

"As long as you can awaken the God of Harmony, your wish can be fulfilled." Idakel turned around and looked at Ed.

"Is it really possible?" Ed's body trembled involuntarily.

"Don't you want to become a pure-blooded dark elf? Go ahead and find the ancient temple."

Like last time, Ed was sent out of the temple.

"Hey, make it clearer..." Ed sighed in frustration.Really, I don't speak clearly every time.Forget it, let's hand in the test report first. Although the time this time is short and there are some tricks, it will pass anyway.

In the darkness, Lacey felt that she couldn't move. She opened her eyes wide and looked carefully, and found that she was actually bound by thorns.

"Rael, Rael!" Lacey struggled and yelled, feeling terrified.It was pitch black here, and he couldn't see anything but himself, and he couldn't find Rex either.

"Rayle... where are you... come and save me..." Lacey struggled, his body was pierced by thorns, and there were bright red blood, he sobbed softly as if he couldn't feel the pain, calling out with Rex.

"I'm here, it's okay, Lacey..." Rex, who had just gone to prepare breakfast, found Lacey shivering in the quilt as soon as he came back. He rushed over in a panic, hugged him in his arms, and gently Gently stroke his back until he calms down.

After a while, Lacey moved his eyes, raised his right hand, rubbed it, and finally opened it, and saw Rex's face at a glance. "Rael..." Leaving Rex's embrace, Lacey sat on the bed with her shoulders shrugged, rubbed her eyes from time to time, and then yawned big.

"Hungry?" Rex asked thoughtfully.

"Well, I'm going to wash up first." Slowly got out of bed, walked to the bathroom, turned around suddenly when he reached the door of the room, and said viciously, "Leel is not allowed to steal food!" Then he continued to wash with strides.

"Yes." Rex replied with a smile.

After losing sight of Lacey, Rex got up and began to make the bed.The smiling face just now slowly became as cold as ice.

A lot of people gathered on the driving range in Casamedin because the school has a new teacher.

In fact, there is nothing to pay attention to about the new teacher. There have been new teachers before, and the students have never been so excited.

But this time is different.

This time, it was an elf.

What are sprites?That is a super secluded race. Of course, this is the white elves, the group of white elves who live in the forest of elves in the Eastern Continent.

"What is he making a fuss about?" Lacey looked at Roser, who was standing next to Mr. Ryan in the middle of the practice field, with his mouth curled up. "Suddenly came here to be a teacher, he doesn't intend to persuade you to go back to Falan?"

"I told him, I will take you back, but not now." Rex raised his eyebrows, "Forgive him, he is an old antique, and the rules for elves are too strict."

"I'm not angry~" Lacey smiled, took out a candy and threw it into his mouth. "Besides, with a white elf as a teacher, I should be able to learn a lot. My goal is to pass the graduation exam smoothly!" Clenching his fists, little stars twinkled around his round eyes.

"Then you can rest assured." Rex nodded. "He is the oldest elf in the clan. I am afraid that except for a few ancient dragons who are still alive, no one knows more than him. If you have any questions, just ask him."

"Really? It's okay to ask casually?"

"Wow! Why are you here!" Ed's sudden appearance startled Lacey.

"Let me come and see the new teacher. By the way, the trial report has been handed in."

"It's a pity that the reason for the disappearance of Belem City has not been found out."

"Wow! Rhea!" Lacey was frightened again, "Why did you suddenly become so elusive, really."

"Oh, I was right there just now." Rhea laughed dryly.

"Actually, the reason has long been clear." Ed shrugged.

"Then tell me why."

"Do you think the lord of Belem City doesn't know about this?" Ed asked Rhea.

"You mean?"

"The dark temple is right below the Palace of the Lord of Belem. The Lord of Belem must know the ruins of the underground temple. Adding the things you and Lumer saw recovered by the Church of Light, it is very clear. The Lord of Belem relies on himself Knowing the secrets of the underground temple, he broke in without permission, and as a result touched the defense mechanism of the temple, causing the entire city of Belem, including everything within a radius of several hundred miles (kilometers), to be wiped out."

"...that statue?" Reya thought back, remembering that the group of people searched for a long time in the temple, and then found that what they were looking for was in the hands of the statue...

"That's right." Ed nodded, "I checked the classics specifically, and the city of Belem was built more than 3 years ago, which means that the dark temple was not buried for a long time before that. After I came back, I checked the records about the War of Light and Darkness, and found that after the battle 35673 years ago, the Temple of Light lost an artifact bestowed by the goddess, and then checked a lot of information. It turns out that the location of that battle is the current city of Belem, and when you think about what you said, it must be the 'Staff of Light'."

"You mean that the Staff of Light was sealed in the Temple of Darkness. After the Lord of Belem found out, he wanted to take it for himself, but it triggered the self-defense system of the statue, which led to all the consequences?"

"That's it."

"You're really free." Lacey said coolly.

"I'm obviously very busy. In order to check these materials, I spent many days in the library management. Fortunately, the school library has enough materials. It is indeed the best in the world!" Clenched fists and tears.

"No one is forcing you."

"Yes, I did it voluntarily." Ed sighed, "I heard that it has now become a lake, which is very beautiful."

"Really." Lacey said in an affirmative tone.

"Do you think Roser will know about the God of Harmony?" Ed looked at Roser who was introducing himself.

"Maybe, you can go and ask later."

After explaining some things that need attention, Mr. Ryan left, leaving Russell to teach the group of students.

Even in class, Roser still paid close attention to His Royal Highness, but at the same time, he paid more attention to Lacey.For some reason, he began to feel that Lacey was a bit mysterious.
