Elden Ring, but with Wind Spirit Moon Shadow

Chapter 14 Melina

As night fell, a huge moon gradually rose in the sky and the light of the golden tree gradually faded.

The waiting Bai Shi was staring at the moon in the bushes, and his thoughts began to wander.

"That shouldn't be the case. The moon is clearly there, so why is there no sun during the day?"

"No, the Sunshade City and the legendary weapon Eclipse Hook Sword are all related to the sun."

"Why did the sun disappear?"

Soon, Bai Shi gave up thinking further, as these were still too far away from him.

The light of the golden tree is always spreading over the land, and even at night, it only reduces visibility a little.

But this is enough for Bai Shi.

Bai Shi came out of the bushes and moved his left hand. The bleeding from the wound had completely stopped.

Bai Shi cautiously approached the ruins in front of the checkpoint and came to the place he had chosen in advance where there were no soldiers standing guard nearby.

He took out a Gurkha knife from his bag and threw it high in the direction away from the checkpoint.

The scimitar drew a huge parabola in the air, spanning most of the camp, and then fell down.

"Clang~"

The crisp collision sound alarmed the nearby soldiers, who drew their weapons, raised torches high, and gathered towards the sound.

Bai Shi quickly ran towards the checkpoint door.

He had to take advantage of the cover of night to run through the gate in one breath, minimizing the time his figure appeared in the sight of the soldiers behind the city wall.

Bai Shi lowered his voice and ran from the left side of the door to the right side as quickly as possible.

The soldiers holding crossbows inside the gate only saw a blurry figure flash past the city gate.

His body subconsciously raised the crossbow, but as soon as he raised it, the target disappeared.

He stared blankly at the shadow's last position, then slowly put down the crossbow and continued to stand guard aimlessly.

At this moment, Bai Shi has arrived at the place of blessing.

This blessing is at the junction of the city wall and the cliff, and the two walls behind him give Bai Shi a lot of sense of security.

"The plan worked."

"Alas, wisdom is the reason for being a king. These soldiers will never understand my amazing wisdom."

Bai Shi muttered to himself smugly.

After boasting, Bai Shi did not forget the biggest purpose of this trip and reached out to touch this blessing.

A warm feeling enveloped the white consciousness.

Bai Shi felt that the blessing was inviting him, inviting him to accept the blessing more deeply.

Bai Shi didn't know what to do. After thinking for a while, he imitated the actions in the game and sat down next to Ci Fu.

Suddenly, the blessed light spread out, enveloping the surrounding space.

Bai Shi's eyes blurred and everything in the distance seemed to become blurry, as if he were in another space.

The warm light washed over Bai Shi's body, and the wound on his left hand began to feel numb.

Bai Shi took off his arm guard and untied the rag that had been used to bandage the wound. He saw that the wound had healed completely without even a scar left.

I took off my helmet and shook my head, and the fatigue from a day's running around disappeared, and my spirit was restored.

Bai Shi quickly opened the panel of Feng Ling Yue Ying, but unfortunately the number of uses did not recover with the blessing.

Bai Shi smiled in his heart at his own wishful thinking. Feng Ling Yue Ying were things from another dimension, how could they be charged so easily?

Then, Bai Shi thought that he would be able to see Melina soon, and he couldn't help but feel happy. But then he started to feel embarrassed again, thinking:

I'm dirty, and my helmet and arm guards are even cobbled together. I wonder if she will dislike me.

How should I talk to her when we meet later? Should I be enthusiastic and take the initiative to touch her shy heart? Or should I act cool and arouse her curiosity?
Bai Shi was amused by his own thoughts.

Oh, I never talked to girls in my previous life. It would be embarrassing if I stuttered and couldn’t speak later.

Speaking of which, I haven’t looked in the mirror yet. Is it my own face or the default face in the game?
Hey, if I just go crazy and confess my feelings to her, what kind of expression will she have? I really want to see it...

What Bai Shi didn't know was that Melina was sitting nearby in spirit form, secretly observing him.

Melina was speechless watching him grinning foolishly and then covering his face and shaking his head.

While stroking the spirit horse's hair, he asked:
“…Toret, is this really the person?”

The spirit horse named Torret snorted, as if to say, "Don't you believe in my judgment?"
Seeing that Torrett had chosen this person, Melina sighed resignedly.

After all, when she chose him on the beach, Melina also recognized that this man was qualified to become king.

The powerful ancient soul that stays quietly in him is the best proof of this.

Melina stood up and pulled the wide hood of her cloak back on.

As he walked towards the white consciousness, his body gradually became visible.

Bai Shi was struggling over there when he suddenly saw a beautiful figure gradually emerging beside him.

Her slender legs were wrapped in long leather boots, and as she walked, the pure white skirt revealed under the wide cloak swayed.

The wide hat covered her face, revealing only her soft and sweet, candy-like lips and small and delicate nose, with a few strands of hair clustered around her pretty cheeks.

She pushed aside her cloak with both hands and knelt beside Bai Shi.

He lifted the hood of his cloak, revealing his rose-gold hair. His left eye was tightly closed as if sealed by a strange rune, while his right eye emitted a golden blessed light.

After Melina sat down, she spoke to Bai Shi in a sweet voice:
"Hello, you who come from the fog, my name is Melina."

"I want to make a deal with you."

When Melina really appeared in front of Bai Shi, it was difficult for Bai Shi to describe what kind of feeling it was.

Is it excitement and joy? Is it panic? Is it the emotion of reuniting after a long separation? Or is it admiration?
Maybe both.

But more than that, there is a sadness that wells up in my heart.

Melina, my second witch, I failed to protect you in the end.

You asked me if I was ready in front of the giant cauldron, and I thought I was ready...

Even if I can get mad, how can I do something that tramples on your determination and denies the meaning of your life?

Even with the use of pure gold needles to suppress the epilepsy, you did not come back.

My witch was burned to death. No matter what choice I made, my witch was burned to death.

When he saw Melina standing in front of him alive, Bai Shi wanted to say something, but he couldn't open his mouth.

Bai Shi just looked at Melina sadly without saying a word.

Melina and Bai Shi stared at each other silently, but as time passed, Melina gradually couldn't hold it anymore.

'? '

'Why is this person just looking at me without saying anything?'

'Is it my way of showing up that is wrong?'

The blessed light swayed slightly, leaving Melina disheveled in the wind.

　Melina! My Melina/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~
