Ninth Library

This hourglass was sent by the king.

A dilapidated hourglass that looks like it would break if touched lightly.

The king sent someone to pass a message, saying that this is a good thing, and he hoped that Moye would accept it.

Moye didn't think it was a good thing. After all, in his opinion, this thing was useless to him now, and because it was a gift from the king, he couldn't just throw it away.

However, Nana fell in love with this thing sent by the king. Seeing that someone was willing to accept this broken thing, the great magician Moye gave it to Nana without saying a word, although the students repeatedly told their teacher Said that it was a gift from the king and could not be given away casually, but Moye didn't seem to hear it at all.

Nana himself is naturally not interested in this thing, the one who is really interested in stuff is actually Silence.

Nana couldn't see anything special about this little hourglass. She just heard from Shen Mo that it was something humans use to calculate time. She was very curious at first, but when she saw that it was just relying on the sand After using the flow to calculate the time, she lost interest at all.

On the other side, after Moye and the others talked with Silence a few times, they also had a general new direction. The old magician has been very busy recently. Although many people are worried about his health, he himself said that he has nothing at all The problem.

For a moment, Alice regretted introducing Silence to her teacher, because she was afraid that the teacher would not be able to hold on in the afternoon if he continued to do this.

After knowing Moyer's actions, Shen Mo just said: "Your teacher is really crazy, isn't he?"

Since there were no other acquaintances in the imperial capital, Shen Mo and Nana lived directly in Alice's family. For herself who was clearly the master but was always busy with the guests, Alice always realized that At the time, it was already time to take care of the two uncles.

"The reason why it became like this, isn't it also inseparable from you?"

If it wasn't for Shen Mo's suggestion to create a book spirit, maybe the teacher wouldn't have become so busy at all.

Alice couldn't help thinking this way, but she knew very well that even if there was no silence, her teacher would still not stop. The teacher has paid too much for the current research, and it is now in a bottleneck period. If there is no silence, I don't know how long the teacher will stay in this period.

Thinking of this, Alice couldn't help sighing.Because the teacher is obsessed with research, many things related to Moyer are now handed over to Alice. After all, who makes her the most proud disciple of Moyeda Magician?

Although she is not yet 20 years old, the House of Sages has already issued an invitation letter to her. Sooner or later, she will become the youngest sage in the magic world, and now it is only a matter of time.

"Silence, Nana, she..."

Regarding what Nana said to herself a few days ago, Alice didn't know whether Mo Mo knew about it. If she knew, those friends of hers would...

Alice didn't dare to think about the cruel past that those people had told her. She didn't want her friends to suffer again, so she hoped that as few people as possible would know this secret.

Alice's words came to her lips, but she still didn't say them in the end. She was hesitating in her heart, because if Nana hadn't said this before Yu Mou, then she would be the first to reveal the secret.

Until Alice left, he didn't say anything more. Mo Mo understood what the girl wanted to say, but he didn't break it. The girl had her own worries, and Mo Mo also had her own worries. His worries were not in the house, but outside the house.

When Nana walked into the silent room holding the rabbit doll Alice gave her, what she saw was a handsome young man standing by the window, looking down at everything outside the window.

Nana: "Silence, outside..."

Silence: "Shhh—"

With a silent gesture, there was no need for Silence to say anything more, and Nana fell silent. For a while, the room was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling could be heard clearly.

"It's here."

Although the voice was not loud, the two people in the room could still hear it clearly. Although Alice is Moyer's most proud disciple, she has always lived alone. Her apartment is very large, so even Even with two more guests, it didn't look crowded at all, but this also meant that there were no other people in the apartment.

People who came in from the outside were very careful, and even the sound of opening the door was so small that it could be ignored. This group of people obviously knew that Alice was not at home, and their purpose was for other things.

"on!"

Their goal was simple and direct, but in just a moment, a large group of people rushed into the silent room.

In this room, all they saw was a girl holding a rabbit doll.

"No, there is one more person?"

Just as one of them made his voice, a silent figure fell from the roof. Silent's movements were very crisp and neat, but within a short while, five or six people had already been knocked down by him. Seeing his posture, the rest of the people couldn't help but took a step back.

"What are you afraid of? We came here with an order. Catch them!"

I don't know who said such a sentence at this time, and the others all took out the magic wand hidden in their clothes at this time.From their posture, it can be seen that the visitor is not good!

"Nana! Jump out of the window!"

As soon as the silent words fell, his men had already pulled Nana open the window, and the two of them directly crashed out of the room on the second floor.Shards of glass were flying around them, and those people who hadn't had time to react had distorted faces on their faces.

This is not the first time such a danger has occurred.

Shen Mo couldn't help laughing at himself. It's nothing to be in danger, but he didn't want Nana to encounter any danger with him. Maybe in the eyes of others, Nana is a powerful demon, but in Shen Mo's eyes, Nana is also She was just a little girl who would act like a baby and ask him for candy.

Silent, hurt.

Although the wound was not serious, the smell of blood told Nana about it at the first time.

The taste of blood is different for everyone, silently I don't know, for the demons, my blood has a fatal attraction, it is like the sweetest candy-like fragrance, just smelling it is enough to make people crazy.

"silence……"

When she smelled blood, Nana realized something was wrong.It's so fragrant, it's so fragrant that it almost makes people feel sick. Is human blood originally smelling like this?

Her eyes turned red involuntarily, and her whole body began to twitch slightly. When she raised her eyes to look at Silence, there was already a storm in her eyes.

Shen Mo fell to the ground with Nana in his arms. Although he used magic at the last moment, he still couldn't bear the gravity and fell to the ground heavily.He snorted and watched Nana in his arms slowly get up. When he saw the girl was about to tell him to go quickly, he found that the girl looked at him so strangely.

"It smells good."

At this time, Nana seemed to have no consciousness at all, she lowered her head and sniffed Shen Mo's neck, as if she was about to open her mouth and want to go down the next moment.

"Nanai..." Shen Mo knew that Nana was very wrong at the moment. When he found that Nana started to lick the small scars on his face, he remembered that there was a person who said to himself in the past: don't get hurt, especially In front of the Mozu.

All these years, perhaps because I have lived too comfortably, I completely forgot about this matter!

Silence is very clear, it is himself who caused Nana to look like this, he was pressed to the ground by Nana, maybe this little demon will grow fangs on him in the next moment.

His heart was beating violently uncontrollably, because he found that Nana's eyes had completely turned blood red at this moment, and they were demon eyes that only demons would have.

Seeing that Nana was about to bite into silence, something also fell from the window on the second floor. It was a small hourglass, which seemed to be so fragile, but it happened to hit Nana. on the head.

The strength was just right, and Nana was knocked out smoothly.

Looking at the kitten that had fainted in his arms and the hourglass that landed steadily on the kitten's head, the corner of Silence's mouth twitched involuntarily. The people who were still on the second floor seemed to have finally reacted at this time, Silence I saw that some of the group of people were already standing at the window.

These people are not ordinary people, they are all magicians, and they are not weak magicians.

"This way."

A voice sounded in his ears, Shen Mo only felt that the voice sounded familiar, he hadn't heard where he had heard this voice before, and then the hourglass in front of him lit up with a blinding white light, that The light gradually swallowed the surroundings, it swallowed Silence, and Nana. When the light disappeared, the people who were still chasing Silence found that their target had long since disappeared.

This is the second time Silence has seen this huge tree, but compared with the last time, this tree seems to be different.

Half of the originally lush branches and leaves have turned silvery white at this moment, which looks very sacred and very weird.

"Squeak!"

A little red bird flapped its wings before Shen Mo's eyes, Shen Mo knew this little bird, he had seen this bird in his dream.

Speaking of which, that voice...

Nana is still in Shen Mo's arms, but the kitten should be fast asleep at this moment, and the corners of her mouth are still drooling. She looked at her silently for a while, and then slowly stood up after confirming that she was fine. Come on, step by step to the huge tree.

He saw the girl again.

The girl had waist-length hair, but her eyes were closed, and she seemed to be asleep. Just when she was silently hesitating whether to make a sound, the girl opened her eyes.

"Welcome, guest from another world."

This is the first sentence the girl said to Silence.

When she heard her voice, she was stunned in silence. The girl knew who he was. Would anyone in this world know that he came from another world?

This feeling is very wonderful, as if a person who has always had a great secret is suddenly known by the whole world without knowing it.

Silence saw the girl fall from the tree trunk, and before his eyes, the girl was very tall. He didn't notice when he was still on the tree, but the girl was about the same height as him.

"Aren't you asking? Who am I?" In terms of appearance, the girl looks somewhat similar to the Demon King, but unlike the Demon King, the girl in front of her looks more like a human being.

"Since you know that I am from another world, you should also know that in the world I am in, there is an existence called the World Tree. Although I am not sure, this——should be the World Tree after all. tree!"

When Shen Mo said this, he pointed to the tree behind the girl. The huge tree stood there quietly like a guardian of the world.However, when you stand in front of it, you will have an indescribable sense of peace of mind.

When Shen Mo finished speaking, there was a faint smile on the girl's face, she nodded towards Shen Mo, affirming Shen Mo's guess.

"So, who are you, the incarnation of the World Tree?"

Now that my first guess is correct, what about the second guess?

This time the girl shook her head to answer Silence's question. Obviously, Silence's guess was wrong.

Silence doesn't understand, if it's not the incarnation of the World Tree, then what kind of person can use this place as a shelter?

"I am, the first witch."

Witch, in the world where Shen Mo used to live, people with this title are basically the embodiment of evil. Witches always seem to use all kinds of evil magic to make the protagonist in the story suffer all kinds of suffering. Although every witch is different, the only ending is the same for them—they will definitely be defeated by the protagonist, and then leave quietly as losers.

However, the girl in front of Shen Mu claimed to be a witch, the first witch.

"Witch?"

The silence seemed to be uncertain, and she couldn't help repeating the girl's words. The girl just nodded after hearing this, and she raised her right hand, and the red bird that was flying elsewhere appeared on her finger.

It was a very lively bird, completely ignorant of life, even in front of silence, it couldn't help wanting to exchange.

"This child was born from the World Tree."

The girl stretched out her hand, and slowly handed the bird to Shen Mo's face, Mo Mo couldn't help stretching out her hand, and the bird jumped into his palm at this moment.

"I'm dying."

If one day, a person who looks younger than you stands in front of you and tells you that she is about to die, how would you feel?

I must think that this person is probably crazy. If he is not crazy, how can he think that he is about to die?

"My power has gradually disappeared, and these powers have found a new host. I believe you can make good use of these powers."

"What... are you talking about?" Shen Mo felt that he could no longer understand what the girl was saying. What does it mean that he can use these powers well? Could it be that...

"You should be able to feel that your magic power is different from others."

When listening to what she said here, Mo Mo fell silent, because he understood the meaning of the girl's words better than anyone else.

"This power is not just as simple as magic power. You have not fully possessed it now. After I disappear from this world, you will become its real master and the new guardian of the World Tree. "

Mo Mo felt that the girl's words seemed to be bewitching, she was bewitching herself to take on this important task, but... guarding the world and so on is really annoying!

Silence: "What if I refuse?"

When the boy said this, he didn't even hesitate. The moment the witch heard his words, she couldn't help being taken aback, and then the witch smiled.

Her smile is like the smile that a girl would have. She smiles so happily, but this happiness can't last long, because Silence soon found out that the girl was wrong.

There are always dots of light leaking from the witch's body. At the beginning, there were not many of these light spots, so they did not attract Shen Mo's attention. But at this time, Shen Mo found that these light spots were like thousands of fireflies. Usually, it was flying and dissipating in front of him.

"It's a pity that there is no chance to refuse."

When the witch said this sentence, there was regret in her tone. Although she had guessed that the boy would say this sentence, she also understood that the boy had no chance to refuse, or said From the moment I choose the boy, the boy has no chance to refuse.

I'm really sorry for making you bear what you don't want to bear!

The girl opened her mouth, but didn't say this sentence, she just looked at the silence, the shock in the boy's eyes, and the panic in the boy's eyes.

"Forget it, even though I'm trying to make things difficult for others, I still give you a gift. Originally, I shouldn't interfere, but since it's the person you care about..."

Shen Mo heard that her voice was gradually getting smaller, and gradually even the person in front of him became nothingness.

"Go and find him, he is waiting for you."

After the witch finished the last sentence, she completely disappeared in front of Silence. Silence never imagined that this was the first meeting in the real sense, but unexpectedly it became the last side. Silence is not unexperienced Life and death are farewell, but watching a person disappear before his eyes like this makes him feel an indescribable feeling in his heart.

However, he didn't have time to express too much emotion, because he found that the big tree in front of him was gradually changing. The original emerald green branches had turned into silvery white. As if passed away, its silver outfit seemed to be mourning for the girl who was still standing here.

Mo Mo was admiring the big tree's new silver clothes before it was too late, a black hole was born under his feet at this moment, the sudden appearance of this black hole caught Mo Mo off guard, Mo Mo didn't even have time to shout a word, and fell into the endless black hole among.

This time he still woke up by the lake.

I met an unfamiliar person in a familiar place. There was a blue-haired boy in the lake. The moment he saw Silence, the boy rushed towards him, but the opponent was soon suppressed by Silence.

Shen Mo discovered that there was a pair of small magic horns on the top of the child's head, and that the child was a demon.

When he discovered this, Shen Mo couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Even the weak demons are much stronger than ordinary humans. Although Shen Mo feels familiar with this place, he also feels that this place is very strange .

It should be not far from the city of the demon king here, maybe he should take this demon to the city of the king.

Although Shen Mo thinks so, but the little demons are full of wariness towards Shen Mo, so Mo Mo seduces the little demons with food, and the little demons don't speak at first, but he subconsciously wants to talk to him Silence approached.

The first step, silence succeeded.

Although this little demon didn't speak, he silently chose to follow Silence. Wherever Silence went, he went there.

Shen Mo went to the Demon King's City according to his memory, but found that there was no king's city there, only endless flames of war—the place ruled by the Lord of Fear, was full of flames of war.

Lord of Fear, this is the name Shen Mo once heard from Nana. Before the Demon King took the throne, he seemed to have fought a tough battle with this Lord.

It was a very tragic battle. Although the Demon King finally returned to the Demon King City, he was left with scars that could not be erased in his life.

Among the demons, there is such a group of people, they have more powerful power than the general demons, they are born from the flow of souls, they are the purest embodiment of souls.

And the demon race born from the stream of souls is called a monarch.

Nana is also a monarch, but this kitten is a very young monarch. Although she has great power, she is still too young.

Now, where is the devil?

At this time, Silence can only take the little demons to choose to hide in the human territory. This is an unpeaceful era, and everyone walks carefully on the road.

"Have you heard that another sage has passed away?"

"What! Are you only in your twenties?"

"Hey, so it's not a good thing to say that the magic power is too strong."

Sages among human beings seem to die prematurely because of their powerful magic power. A powerful sage is a very rare combat power for human beings, and every time a sage dies, it will make all magicians die. It became tense, and there was constant friction between humans and demons, but there was no solution.

"Why fight each other?"

This is the first time that the little demons have spoken since they followed Shen Mozu. After hearing this, Shen Mozu just smiled and told him: for resources.

Both humans and demons hope to live better. Like humans, demons live longer. Many demons have been living in a certain place since a long time ago, but humans are a race with strong reproductive ability. One of them, for their own sake and to find a better life for their offspring, they would think of fighting for it.

"Although there is a very simple way, that is, humans and demons sign a peace treaty, but those are just self-deception."

"Why?" The little demons don't understand why Shen Mo said such words. They just entered this place of human beings today. People seem to be very disturbed. This anxiety has also infected the little demons. Every step he takes is tight Silence followed closely, as if he was afraid that if he was not careful, the person in front of him would disappear.

"If the heavens and the earth had spirits, they would certainly not recognize anyone as their master! So, why do they divide the heavens and the earth?"

The little demon was really shocked by the words of silence, he never thought that a human would say such a thing.

Little Demon: "Your name?"

Silence: "Huh?"

Little Demon: "What's your name?"

Silence: "Silence."

Although the little demons are demons, their magic power is not very good. Shen Mo kindly taught him a few magics, and then they learned about the current age limit in a human village.

This place turned out to be 1000 years ago. No wonder there was no Demon King City, because the Demon King City did not exist at that time, and even the Demon King hadn't ascended the throne yet.

Mo Mo never imagined that the witch-sama gave herself such a gift before disappearing.

"What is that witch lady thinking?"

He still remembered that the witch asked him to find him before disappearing, but who was this him that the witch was talking about?

Is it the devil?

When he heard the witch's words, Mo Mo instinctively thought that what the witch said was the devil, but in an era when the devil had not ascended the throne, could he find the devil?Also, why did the witch send him here?

In the records kept by the demons, the Lord of Fear has no entity, he is like a remnant soul, wherever there is fear, there will be his figure.

Now he is hiding on the king of a certain country. This country secretly captured the demons, and the demons captured by them were forcibly held by their hearts, and then made into seeds of magic power.
