Ark of the Immortal

92.Write a letter to Melanza

So, the battle knight in Casimir is really you.

Hannah sat by the campfire, holding in her hand a piece of honey cake that Keobe handed her.

It was already the morning of the next day. After Hannah confirmed that the undead were back last night, she went back to rest early.

He ran over non-stop the next morning, carrying a large bundle of firewood behind him.

This also just solved the crisis of running out of firewood in the room.

Kyobe was nibbling honey cakes next to him, looking at the eldest sister who had just entered the room, and thinking about their relationship.

Hannah took a bite of the honey biscuit. She was not used to this particularly sweet food.

He broke off half of it and handed the uneaten half back to Ceob.

Thank you. I don't like sweets very much. Just eat these.

Hannah took the remaining bit of honey cake in her hand. After all, this was something the little girl gave her out of kindness, and it would be unreasonable not to eat it. If you do this, the remaining half will not go to waste.

Okay!

Keob took the half piece of honey cake. She just finished her own piece, took the half piece and opened her mouth to chew again.

Hannah continued to ask the immortal while chewing the honey cake.

Then how did you get to Casimir? Do you remember?

Hannah looked at the undead man and said.

When we saw you playing in Casimir on TV, it had been more than a year since the Victoria riots. Where had you been in the intervening year?

have no idea.

The undead man shook his head and pointed at his head.

Already, I can't remember.

Yes, when the undead man woke up in Casimir's cargo warehouse for the first time, he couldn't remember what happened before at all, and his mind was not as clear-headed at that time as it is now.

If he could really realize that there was something wrong with his memory, it was during the time when the Major Championship was about to begin. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, and his mind gradually became aware of the possibility of losing his memory.

At that time, Maria asked him who taught him the miracle of the thunder spear.

Following Maria's inquiry, the undead man felt emptiness and loss, and at the same time, he suddenly understood that his memory was damaged.

Until the appearance and departure of Solar, part of the memory loss of the undead was filled. What poured into the body was not so much the humanity given by Solar.

Rather, it is part of the power of the First Fire that Solar shared with the undead after appearing as the incarnation of the First Fire.

After all, after that, his ability to control flames became more and more proficient.

Especially on the way to Kjerag, the undead man at that time discovered that he could already control part of the fire hidden in his body. Not only does it have the effect of flames coming out of the sword, but it also uses the flame itself to represent life and strength, providing considerable benefits to one's armor and body.

Of course, this is still different from a spell, it's just the amplitude of the flame that affects his individual life.

The most important thing is that in his body, the purest magical flame inherited from the daughter of the old witch Izaris also appears to be awakened again.

When he was in Kjerag, whether he was helping Skadi to escape the pursuit of Heir, or destroying the invading abyss in the painting world, he relied on the magical flame of Izaris.

Although the purest initial fire cannot yet be mobilized at will. But now the undead man has clearly felt that there is a warm area in his chest at any time.

Presumably that's where the first fire was.

With the connection of the First Fire, the undead gradually awakened some of their past memories.

Once he sees an object related to his generation, he will immediately realize what it is, and the corresponding picture will soon appear in his mind.

Including seeing the holy bell on the Kalan Holy Mountain, the painting world, and the dragon head stone given by Yin Hui.

But apart from these, I don’t have the slightest impression of the content of my activities on the Terra continent.

Regardless of what Silver Gray said, he once lived in Victoria and was known as Victoria's Wandering Ghost.

It was Solal who told the undead about his actions at the beginning of the era. What is the so-called reaching the peak beyond the initial fire?

He had no impression at all, which is why the undead chose to continue on the journey.

Because he wants to find his lost memory and find something he cannot forget.

Oh, forget it, it's not a bad thing if you can't remember it. Just think that you have a life that starts from scratch.

Hannah laughed and laughed, trying to find a way to make the undead relax.

After all, you don't know what you were like before, and you don't know what made you what you are now. Maybe it would be easier if you couldn't remember?

...

The undead man was silent for a while, then he nodded.

Hannah is absolutely right. Not being able to remember the past is a good thing in a sense. Because this means starting a new life from now on.

But the undead can't escape after all, and he understands this clearly.

He who carries the First Fire is ultimately the host of the First Fire.

The undead don't know if there is still a need to spread fire in this world. But as the bearer, I must protect the first fire.

Regardless of whether there are characters like the Undead Heroes and Ashes in the future, kill him and keep the flame alive.

And it is his responsibility to retrieve the memories of the past.

He wanted to know what made the Abyss spread on such a large scale and what made the First Fire so weak.

From the moment he knew that the first fire was still left in his body, he could no longer break free from the shackles attached to himself.

This is not someone trying to put shackles on him and tie him down.

But as the inheritor of the world, he knows it and is willing to pay all the responsibility for it.

Every hero who embarks on the path of spreading fire is not just for the greed for the power of fire in his heart.

After experiencing one journey after another, they had already made their own choices.

Either for friends, or for relatives, or maybe for them who don't deserve love.

The initial desire for fire was just part of his motivation.

What is more important is to fulfill the determination in one's heart and use the power to shake the initial fire, so that the initial fire can continue or disappear.

The true forgetfulness that Hannah talks about may be a kind of relief for the undead, but he will never blindly accept such relief.

As long as he can remember part of his past, he will not stop searching for the lost past.

That is the most decisive factor in his ability to start and end the game.

Sense of responsibility.

maybe.

The immortal nodded and said again.

I can, not remember. But I, can't, don't know.

Having said this, the immortal suddenly thought of something and looked at Hannah.

Hannah, you know, Melantha?

When Hannah heard the name Melantha, she nodded subconsciously and said.

You know, didn't you ask us to protect her? Although we were not qualified to set foot in the Uptown area at that time. But Wei Na still asked several brothers to go to the Uptown area to take turns guarding the hospital, waiting for her to be discharged.

Having said this, Hannah looked at the undead man, and she suddenly thought of a very funny fact.

Have you forgotten Melanza?!

The immortal nodded.

yes.

Hannah's expression changed when she looked at the undead man.

The expression was pitiful, distressed, and inexplicably pity.

Hey...you.

Hannah scratched her head.

This child Melanza is your disciple. No matter how much you forget, please never forget that she is your disciple.

Hannah spoke again.

In the first few months of the riots, this kid was already running to you almost every weekend.

She is very weak, so she wants to improve her physical fitness by learning swordsmanship. You have met several times, and you have saved her once. It was after that time that she got to know you and came to find you. Learn swordsmanship.

Hannah kept talking.

That kid likes to stay with you very much. He can sit here with you for several hours every weekend. Even after today's practice, he will sit with you next to the campfire and stare at the campfire with you.

She came to see us after she was discharged from the hospital during the riot. At that time, I thought something had happened to her and she needed our help.

Having said this, Hannah glanced at the undead man with her eyes that were originally staring at the bonfire.

She ended up asking, where have you been.

...

The undead man stared at the bonfire, trying to recreate such an image in his mind.

But it had absolutely no effect.

You said, discharged?

The Immortal captured the key to Hannah's words.

She is sick?

That's okay...let's put it this way.

Hannah nodded, she said.

She was infected with ore disease during the riot, and her arm was scratched open by those crazy infected people, leaving a lesion on the arm. She almost lost too much blood and had problems.

Although she received treatment in time, ori disease is ori disease after all, and she has become an infected person.

Hannah scratched her head, and when she knew this fact, she felt very regretful.

Why did that strong and elegant little girl experience such a thing?

But fortunately, the treatment was timely and the mineral disease did not spread too much. When we learned the news, she was still slightly infected. Melanza's parents also found a way to send her to Rhode Island to receive treatment for mineral disease there. .Now she is no longer in Victoria.

Not in Victoria anymore?

The undead man actually felt relieved for a moment. This inexplicable feeling receded as quickly as it came.

But Melantha's parents also found us later.

Hannah's tone suddenly became a little strange. She looked at the undead man, hesitated for a long time, and finally said this.

They said they want to see you. See what kind of person this person is who saved their family. Also, they want to say thank you personally. This is what they owe you.

If there were no undead people that night, they might have suffered more than just Melanza becoming infected.

It is more likely that the whole family is stuck on the way to escape and becomes a prop for the infected to vent their anger.

...

Before the undead could speak, Hannah spoke again.

They are still in Victoria and have left us their contact information.

Hannah asked the immortal.

How about it, have you ever thought about going to see them?

The undead man shook his head, he was not ready yet.

This may take time, after all, Melanza is still just a silhouette in the mind of the undead.

Everyone said that Melantha was familiar with him, and that he was even very important to Melantha.

But to the immortals themselves, Melanza was still a stranger.

This is why the undead hate losing their memories.
