680 Chapter 441: The Beginning of the S-rank Mission [2/3]
Richard slowly said after he organized his words, “A god favored Emily when she was young. This god bestowed her with the power of a demigod.
“The god allowed her to guard a place where a battle of the gods broke the laws… That battle lasted for hundreds of thousands of years.
“When I found her, that area had already collapsed.
“When she gained freedom, she also lost her memories and strength.”
“Gods?”
Windsor’s eyes turned cold.
‘It was those vermin who disrupted the laws again.’
“The missing soul fragment of Miss Emily did not disappear.”
She turned her head and looked toward direction.
“You can re-visit the place she once protected if you want her to recover.”
“The land of the broken laws?”
Richard suddenly pondered.
“Emily kept on saying that something was calling her in her dream… Was that her soul fragment?”
Windsor continued afterward.
“However, that fragment can only reactivate the bloodline power in the depths of her body… The possibility of recovery would be almost zero once she lost her memory,
“Lord, you have to be mentally prepared.”
Richard felt relieved.
“Emily was forced to guard the place where a battle of gods broke the laws for hundreds of thousands of years… Her memories were not that good. There was only a long period of loneliness.”
Xina had once obtained Emily’s memories.
Unforgivable sadness and pain shrouded this female warrior of the Krina tribe when she told him about it.
He had to carry out an infinite mission in that narrow space. She endured the silent loneliness of the endless.
Furthermore, Emily was only a child when she entered the cave.
Richard blankly spoke while Windsor stared at him and slowly said, “She could return to being a child. Those memories are gone.”
Wasn’t this a new lease of life for Emily?
She had her own home, a haven she could protect for the rest of her life.
Windsor’s gaze softened as she looked at Richard.
She could feel Richard’s sincerity for the young centaur.
She looked at Emily’s innocent look. She felt sparingly envious.
Richard did not delve into the subject.
He had to explore the land of the broken laws. The revived god was already among his hunting targets.
Now, it was just another reason.
The replenishment of Emily’s soul was supremely vital to her.
Emily was a boss. Her attributes were already overbearing. Who knew how much more she could thrive if she completely recovered?
This was worth looking forward to.
Richard pulled himself together and returned to the primary purpose of the conversation.
“Chairman Windsor, do you have more information about the ancient ruins that sealed the god’s heart?”
The only information he has so far was these four S-rank missions were to retrieve a god’s heart. He did not know anything else.
This undoubtedly added a lot of uncertainty to the mission
Windsor shook her head slowly. Her eyes dimmed.
“More than a thousand grace mainland overlords have entered… But no one returned.”
It was devastating to one’s confidence to try something thousands of times without progress. Not even knowing what the problem was.
Besides, she didn’t have time.
Richard’s expression was subtle.
How could an S-rank mission be so easy to complete?
Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food. Those idiots didn’t have any brains. They dared to interfere in any mission.
“Can I see Teacher Peim again?”
Windsor said in a hoarse voice.
“Teacher has fallen into a deep sleep…”
That confused Christy.
“What are you guys talking about? Doesn’t Teacher Peim like sleeping? He would always sleep for a few days. He wouldn’t even wake up…”
Windsor looked at the heartless young girl. Her face showed a complicated expression.
“He is fine. The teacher’s old injury has got better. He’ll be fine after resting for a while.”
The young girl had no idea what was going on.
She also wanted her to maintain her naivety.
The taste of maturity was not pleasant.
Christy tilted her head.
“So, Sister Windsor wants Lord Richard to find a magic plant for Teacher Peim?”
Her big eyes darted around as she spoke.
“Lord Richard, work harder! Teacher Pimm is so precious. You’ll make a fortune if you cure him!”
The absence of sharp-wittedness in her eyes startled Richard.
This young girl was protected too well.
No wonder she could hang out with Emily…
He ignored this chatterbox, and his gaze turned solemn.
“Chairman Windsor, I have already stationed my troops outside the city… I’ll leave Twilight City to you.”
Windsor took a deep breath.
“May the desert bless you.”
This queen-like figure of extraordinary origins bowed solemnly to Richard afterward.
“Please, do everything.”
Vale stared blankly at the carriage that disappeared into the street half an hour later.
His emotions were hard to understand.
Although Richard did not tell him the purpose of this trip, from Windsor’s attitude, she could tell that what he was about to do was extremely dangerous.
Christy pouted and muttered unhappily.
“Damn Richard! He also brought Emily with him!”
As he spoke, she turned to look at Vale and smiled.
“Officer Vale, aren’t you worried about Lord Richard? Sister Windsor and Teacher Peim entrusted him an arduous mission!”
