Origin Legend: Heroic Hymn
Chapter 56: The Legend of the Magic Box
When Alice appeared again, she was wearing a new set of equipment. Compared to the heavy armor before, this set of equipment looked much lighter.
Alice excitedly turned around in front of Dong Yu to show herself off. Dong Yu appropriately satisfied her vanity and nodded at her in amazement.
"It looks great! Hehe!"
After seeing the gems and equipment, Cool couldn't help but open the box, but what was unexpected was that a black unknown object about the same size as Rita flew out of it. But just when everyone felt sorry for Cool, Cool shouted excitedly.
"This... this... this... is... the legendary Krypton Tungsten Ore!!!"
Although no one knew what it was, Coolle's expression said it all. It was probably a very rare forging material. Everyone was happy for him from the bottom of their hearts. Dongxue looked at everyone and walked to Famiel.
"Family, you should open it and take a look too!"
"Ah."
Famiel opened the box elegantly, took a look, and then calmly closed the box, which made Dongxue beside him very puzzled.
"What is it? Famiel, show me!"
"Nothing! Just a few bottles of medicine."
"Oh. Is that so? Never mind then."
Dongxue walked towards other people in disappointment. She was never very interested in things like medicines. But she couldn't resist a curious cat, which suddenly appeared and snatched the box, opened it, and looked at her box with tears in her eyes.
"Woo~ Why is the cat's fish, but Falmir's is holy water, meow."
"You greedy cat, you must have thought of all the fish when you opened the box."
"I was just thinking of having some fish for lunch, eh? How did you know that, Falmiel?"
Looking at everyone's curious eyes, the knowledgeable Famir decided to give everyone a lesson and took everyone back to Dong Yu's room upstairs.
Seeing that everyone was seated, Famir cleared his throat and began to explain the legend of Pandora's Box.
"This is a story in the legend of our elves. It is about a kind and beautiful girl named Pandora.
She was originally an ordinary woman, a farm girl living deep in the forest.
One day, a king passed through a forest. Due to his long journey and lack of supplies, he was hungry and thirsty, so he came to a farm. The farmer saw that he looked exhausted and did not recognize him as a king. He neglected him and did not even give him a sip of water.
The thirsty king walked for a while and came to a farm. The kind elf girl gave him a bowl of water and provided him with a meal. The grateful king immediately sent someone to invite the girl back to the castle.
Famir took a breath and drank some water, glanced at the eager eyes of the curious babies, and continued speaking.
"But the good times didn't last long. In that castle, although Pandora was loved by everyone because of her kindness, she was also envied and hated by countless people.
Those who hated her came to the house of the most powerful sorcerer at the time and asked the sorcerer to curse the poor elf girl.
The sorcerer agreed to their request and gave them an exquisite magic box. After explaining how to use it, everyone secretly delivered the magic box to the girl's door while the king was away and left a note.
'Good Pandora, this is the best gift for kind people. You will get infinite happiness when you open it!'
The kind girl did not suspect anyone and opened the magic box with joy. The moment she opened it, a black mist enveloped the entire capital. The frightened girl immediately closed the magic box.
But it was too late. Everything turned into a disaster and the plague ravaged the entire country.
The source of the plague was the elven girl. She was the first to be infected with the plague and also spread it to those close to her.
Those who doted on her began to fear her, stay away from her, and some even began to expel her.
In the end, she was severely beaten by a group of people, and they even invited a wizard to purify her and those infected with the plague with fire.
The flames were blazing and she couldn't move on her own. There were only wailing patients and the magic box around her. She picked up the magic box helplessly, holding the source of all evil in her arms. When she was about to lose her last strength, she heard a pleasant voice.
"Good Pandora, do you want to save them or destroy them all?"
'You can gain the power to destroy everything, or save all suffering, but you will bear all the pain for them.'
'Open me and I will give you hope!'
Looking at the people who were still looking at her with resentment even though they were tortured by illness and fire, and looking at those people who were laughing wildly outside the fire because they had solved their serious problems, the kind girl made her own decision.
'Everything started with me, and it should end with me. I hope I can save them...'
After expressing her wish, she opened the magic box again. This time, what appeared was no longer black fog, but a holy white light, which instantly attracted the black fog covering the entire capital.
The terrible curse, the painful plague, and the surrounding fire all rushed towards her, causing her to feel severe pain all over her body and hallucinations before her eyes.
At this moment, she was no longer able to close the box. All the sufferings came upon her. She closed her eyes in the pain that was enough to destroy everything until it dissipated.
Everyone listened in fascination. Alice, Rita and Ina could not help crying. Famiel did not comfort them and continued to tell the lamentable legend.
"A few days later, people celebrating the new life saw her walking down the street again with a rosy face.
She disappeared from everyone's sight, but miraculously reappeared without showing any sign of pain.
She still carried the terrifying magic box with her, and no one dared to approach her, but she just walked forward with a gentle smile without saying a word to anyone.
The elf girl handed a letter to the kingdom's guards, which contained only one sentence for the king: Thank you, my king, there is no place for me here anymore, so I, a humble person, am here to say goodbye to you.
The elf girl came to the Elf Forest where her fellow elves gathered, and told her story to her fellow elves: Pandora's Box will eventually give the brightest hope in the darkness.
After that, the elf girl left the Elf Forest and embarked on her own journey. People never saw her again. "
The ending of the story also calmed down this kind of people's emotions, and Dongxue smiled slightly.
"Famiel, is this the legendary saying that everything will turn around when it reaches its extreme? What is finally born out of the extreme disaster is hope!"
"Well, you can probably say that! So after you open it, it should be the thing you desire most!"
"So, cat, I want fish the most?"
"Is not it?"
"Yeah meow!"
Irelia's eyes lit up, she shook her cat ears, patted her chest proudly, and was not disappointed with only getting fish. Everyone could only regret the waste of a magic box. Wu Ke La stared at the magic box with shining eyes.
"Family, why didn't you tell me yesterday?"
"I was also frightened by the name Pandora's Box. After all, suffering comes first! It's hard not to care! Who would pay attention to the prefix?"
Alice nodded, and suddenly turned to Aina with an expectant look.
"Sister Aina, open it and take a look!"
