C14 The Mission of the Magic Staff(2)
What?
Look at my magic staff? Could it be that learning a magic technique requires her to see the magic staff?
She was stunned for a moment before replying:
"Oh, okay." He handed it to her while he was still worried in his heart. What if she doesn't return it to me? He hurriedly told her, "This magic staff was given to me by a senior." I specifically emphasized "mine."
Skill mentor stared at the magic staff, as if she did not hear what I was saying at all. Or perhaps she had already forgotten about my existence. I don't know how long I have been looking at it, but my posture has always been straight. In the middle, I even changed my legs because I was tired. Only then did she finally have a reaction. She used both hands to stroke the body of the staff. Tears actually flowed down from her eyes.
I'm very depressed. If the magic staff wasn't in her hands, I would have left long ago. How much time had I wasted, and now I'm actually crying. You don't really want this staff, do you? You're not fighting monsters, so why do you want this wand? But looking at her crying, even if she knew that it was just an NPC in the game, I can't just ignore it. Every NPC here is like a real person, who can be sure that they have no thoughts? If that's the case, can I still watch coldly from the sidelines? Can I have my own conscience? Furthermore, the magic staff is still in her hands. I couldn't help but ask:
"Teacher, what's wrong?"
Skill mentor simply regarded me as her existence. After a long time, just as I was considering whether to give up on this magic staff and leave, she finally sighed and spoke.
"Young adventurer, do you know? This magic staff was originally my lover's..."
Lovers? Could it be that Lu Fang? He also said that he was once a mage. I can no longer care about who this magic staff belongs to. skill mentor was very curious.
"May I ask, is that lover of yours Senior Lu Fang?"
"Ah? Did you see him? Where is he now? Is he doing well?" skill mentor suddenly became excited. She was completely different from before.
"Yes, this magic staff was given to me by him personally. What is wrong with teacher? Can you tell me?" I felt very puzzled. Lu Fang was in a small house behind the village. This village is only so big. Do you not know where he is?
"It's a long story. We used to be adventurers like you. The two of us spend every day happily until we get this magic staff..." skill mentor's emotions have calmed down and I no longer interrupt. I quietly listened to her.
" This magic staff is not an ordinary magic staff. It has a powerful magic. "
"Magic power?"
"Yes." skill mentor gestured for me to sit on the chair in front of her and continued to narrate the story of the past.
"At first, we did not find out that my lover really likes this magic staff. He brought it with him every day. At first, there wasn't much to do. But one day, when we were on a mission... An unexpected situation happened. At that time, our mission was to help the villagers repel those monsters that threatened the safety of the village. My lover actually attacked the innocent villagers. Powerful magic attacks attacked the weak villagers one by one, causing them to fall. At that time, the magic staff emitted a strange black light that enveloped my lover. But my lover's eyes were blood red. He ignored my call and was forced by the situation. I attacked him with the intention of stopping him... "skill mentor's emotions were a little agitated as she calmed her emotions. She continued to speak.
"But I didn't think that when some of my small spells reached his side, they would be repelled by the black gas around him. Seeing the villagers fall one by one, I helplessly used my most powerful Sacred Binding. Subdue him. A monster rushed in front of him and sent him flying. The magic staff also fell from his hand onto the ground. My lover has woken up, but he doesn't remember what he did. He only saw himself being sent flying by the monster, and there was even a beam of light that was restrained on his body. He is very familiar with the Holy Binding Light, we used to use this skill together to defeat many powerful monsters. He could tell at a glance that it was the skill I used... He didn't say anything. His eyes became dim." Speaking up to this point, skill mentor's voice could not help but choke.
"He slowly picked up his magic staff and rushed towards the monster in front. He ignored his severely injured body and continuously used powerful moves to turn the monster into ashes. He didn't even hesitate to use skills that are harmful to himself. I know that he wants to die together with the monster, I know that he must be very sad. After killing the monster, he looked at me resentfully. Without saying a word, he struggled to summon his flying pet. He left just like that. He must have thought that I was trying to harm him. He didn't know that he was being corroded by the power of the magic staff. He must have thought that I wanted to kill him. I can imagine how desperate he was at that time. He left just like that. He didn't even give me a chance to explain. For so many years, I have been staying in this village because I wanted to atone for his sins to those innocent villagers. I also dragged others to look for him, but after so many years, there was no news of him... "skill mentor's tears flowed down again.
... "" I stood at the side, at a loss for what to do and did not know how to comfort her. Just as I was in a dilemma, skill mentor spoke again.
"Feather of Monring Wind, can you do me a favor?"
"Of course, as long as I can help you, I will definitely help you!" I was deeply attracted by that story. At the same time, I was also deeply moved by their love experiences. Just as I was feeling touched, a thought suddenly popped up in my mind: Quest? Could it be that all of this was a mission triggered by the magic staff? At the same time, he had another question in his heart. What exactly was this magic staff? Why did I not lose control when I used it? Is this just a quest item or is it really just a magic staff that hasn't been revealed?
"Thank you. Can you find my lover and tell him the whole story and persuade him to return to my side?"
At the same time, I received a system prompt. "Are you willing to accept the quest: skill mentor's request?"
