After meeting the unpredictable witch and obtaining the important ability to face Pulist directly instead of being instantly killed, Luo Ya woke up from his dream again. He rubbed his eyes and looked at Lilian who was still sleeping soundly. Before he was fully awake, he heard a soft knock on the door.
"Hmm?"
The young man was slightly taken aback. He slowly let go of Lilian's hand and came to the door. After opening the door, he saw a familiar young man standing outside.
"Brother Antonio?"
Luo Ya was a little surprised to see Antonio knocking on the door. The young man didn't have any objection to Luo Ya's intimate address. He nodded at Luo Ya who was still quite energetic. He didn't expect the young man who was seriously injured and dying last night to recover so well. It had been more than three hours since he entered the dream. Not only did he not look tired, but he also looked refreshed as if he had drunk some medicine.
"Is it over?"
"Eh? Ah, yes, it's over. "
"Well, let's go. Let's discuss the battle plan."
Antonio said and led Luo Ya back to the hall where Estrid was. At this time, the Queen of Dreams was floating in the air under the colorful glass of the hall just like before when she talked to Luo Ya. Her eyes were closed and there was a sacred and dreamy beauty to her.
"Ancestor, this is …"
"This is the center of the dream enchantment. Lady Estrid has returned to the dream to rest. This body is a fake body, but it is still very valuable, so it is necessary to guard and maintain it."
Antonio explained and looked at the figure above with eyes full of tenderness. Luo Ya's heart skipped a beat. He thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
"Brother Antonio, you seem to have a good relationship with Ancestor. Have you known each other for a long time?"
"Yes. Although I'm a soldier now, I'm actually a graduate of St. Freya Academy. Lady Estrid is my mentor and also the person who recommended me to the Twilight Sage Association. We've known each other for more than ten years."
"I see. Then, as a graduate of St. Freya Academy, you stayed in Leinster for …"
"Yes, to protect and assist the [Scholar], which is Lady Estrid's job."
So that's how it is. Is that why it's called a [Guardian]?
But looking at you, Dean, why do I feel that something isn't right?
The black-haired youth looked at Antonio's affectionate eyes and had some vague guesses in his heart. If he remembered correctly, Antonio had never married in his life.
In the history without the interference of Luo Ya and the others, Antonio had personally experienced this incident four hundred years ago and successfully survived. But Estrella had disappeared since then. Not long after, the Twilight Sage would fall apart, and no trace of her could be found in Roy's era.
But in that case, why didn't Antonio tell him anything when he was investigating the Scholar? Is it for some special reason, or is it because he doesn't even trust Roy after the collapse of the Sage Society?
Luo Ya was puzzled, but he didn't expect to get the answer soon.
"Although it's not right to say this, it's really good that you can come this time."
"Hmm?"
"It may not seem like much to you, but Lady Estrid is very happy to see you."
Hearing Antonio's words, Luo Ya widened his eyes slightly. The young man smiled.
"In fact, before you came, I had some prejudice against your family. After all, you haven't sent anyone to visit Teacher in the past few hundred years. But now, it seems that you have your own difficulties."
Looking at the two people being chased by the Curse King, Antonio said and sighed. Luo Ya was slightly taken aback. He recalled the happy look of the Rainbow Ancestor when she looked at him and suddenly felt heavy in his heart.
Even with the Dream Demon bloodline, Estrid's thoughts were still human, and it was obvious that she valued her family and kinship very much. Letting her guard the [Dream of Chaos] alone, not seeing her family for hundreds of years, and even directly forgetting her existence, this kind of behavior couldn't be described as excessive. It was no wonder that Antonio was indignant about it.
But … as the saying goes, there are gains and losses. The main reason why Estrid was able to hide until now was that she had cut off contact with the Acate Family. In fact, when the eyes of the dark were focused on the Acate Family, Estrid was the safest.
"I've heard about your plan, but unfortunately, Lady Estrid doesn't want to sacrifice you like this, so we will still fight Pulist next."
"Although you were defeated last night, your efforts weren't in vain. The current Pulist is probably the weakest he has ever been."
Antonio said and patted the young man's shoulder encouragingly. Luo Ya smiled.
According to Estrid's speculation, the Curse King should have fallen because his strength had been declining due to his age in the past few decades. Although Luo Ya and Lilian were defeated last night, they did indeed force Pulist to fight with all his might.
Powerful strength comes with a corresponding price. This was the law of this world, and even the powerful Curse King couldn't ignore it. Besides, the battle last night wasn't just the first battle between Luo Ya and Lilian. There was also the second battle where Estrid showed up. In the morning, the ancestor was exhausted, so Pulist's condition would only be worse after fighting multiple battles.
