Chapter 120 Every journey has an end
In the bistro room.
The oil lamp on the table was lit again, along with two old and yellowed books.
"The ritual magic of resurrection...the rewinding of time!"
Ino sighed as he looked at the two books on the table.
It felt... exactly like buying a Lotto ticket for change only to find out you'd won the £10 million jackpot.
This sense of surprise makes him feel a little dazed, a little unbelievable, and even a little unreal.
The two books, one about time and the other about resurrection, can be considered complementary to each other.
Regardless of resurrection, what really surprised him was the book about time, although the content was obscure and even required some dazzling auxiliary rituals.
But its effect is irresistible to everyone, looking back in time! This kind of backtracking is not the kind that makes the whole world look back powerfully.
Its effect only affects the caster himself.
For example, if you use this magic at the age of 70, and then go back in time 50 years, after the magic ends, he will return to his youth and become 20 years old again...
What is this concept? This effect seems to have surpassed the magic stone, achieving eternal life and youth in a certain sense.
Similarly, this probably explains why the old witch has been hidden for so many years and no one paid attention to her.
As soon as Olivia arranged the ceremony and prepared to resurrect her lover, the exorcism team descended from the sky.
This silly and stupid princess seems to have no idea how important these two books are to some people.
Even Emily's father, a dignified priest and elite exorcist, would rather live in seclusion and die in the town of Klin.
"Is this the protagonist..."
Ino murmured, looking out the window at the dark sky.
Although he experienced ups and downs and even narrowly escaped death, the corresponding gains were also huge.
At this moment, he even vaguely liked this feeling.
Being the protagonist is really more enjoyable than drinking the elixir of happiness. Because in the story, no matter how we do it, the protagonist cannot die, but will gain rich harvests instead.
…
In the early morning, Merchant Town was enveloped in a light layer of morning mist.
It was as if a powerful wizard had released mist and mist, covering this village and town standing on the ancient trade road with a veil.
Outside the town, in the square where the carriage is parked.
After a night's rest, the hard-working merchants have now begun to instruct the attendants to transfer the goods to the carriage one by one.
This seems to be a cycle. After they leave, new merchants and new carriages will arrive in the town in the evening.
The other side of the tavern.
Amidst the noise outside the window, Jacob opened his eyes. After washing up, he went to the tavern bar to serve breakfast.
"Two servings? Is your fellow magician sober?" Sophia, the charming proprietress who still retains her charm inside the bar, asked curiously.
"Yeah, I woke up yesterday morning, but I was kicked out!" Jacob shrugged, looking unconcerned.
He didn't go into detail about how Ino was kicked out because he had to apply magic potion all over his body.
In his mind, even if two boys were shirtless, it wouldn't be a big deal, right? Besides, the herbal bandages wrapped on Ino's body before were all put on little by little after he cut off the other person's clothes.
Although he didn't understand it, Jacob still chose to respect Ino's decision.
"I suggest you choose oatmeal! Injured people should not eat steak and bread. Moreover, the harvest festival is approaching, and I just bought the freshest oats from the caravan yesterday." Sophia said softly.
Not for a while.
Jacob knocked on Ino's door with a bowl of hot oatmeal.
open the door.
"Oh my god! This is simply a miracle!" Jacob put down the oatmeal and looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
He knows the condition of Ino's injury better than anyone else. It's hard to believe that he woke up only yesterday morning and is already intact today. This is already considered a miracle.
Looking at Jacob's surprised eyes, Ino chuckled and said: "This is not surprising, because I am the magical black swan magician!"
"Hahahaha! Yes! The magical black swan magician." After reacting, Jacob responded with a smile, then changed the subject and said:
"But it's a pity that William is not here, otherwise I would have asked him to add a section."
"The kind-hearted black swan magician finally woke up on the seventh day of his coma. It was like a magical magic. No matter how seriously injured he was, he would always wake up on the morning of the seventh day, and then all The injuries have disappeared.”
Jacob used William's habit of recording stories and pretended to state the narration of the story.
Listening to Jacob's joking remarks, Ino almost wanted to tell him that it would be better to replace 'awakening' with 'resurrection'...
But reason defeated desire. The story of the black swan ended last night. It would be greedy to continue.
And most importantly, William left Merchant Town! This undoubtedly proves that other people's stories have begun.
"That's right! Where did William go?" Ino asked curiously.
"Where else can I go, but I heard that the caravan brought news from afar. Someone got three magical things, a table for eating, a stick for beating people, and a donkey for dropping gold coins..."
As he spoke, Jacob looked a little frustrated, as if other children were playing games in the playground, and he could only stand outside the guardrail and watch secretly.
"You go too. I've recovered from my injury! If you leave now, you might be able to catch up with William. Besides, the story of the Grimm brothers cannot be without brother Jacob."
"You..." Jacob hesitated. After all, he stayed to take care of the injured Ino.
"Go quickly! I'm really healed." Ino chuckled, and then he gave Jacob a reason to leave:
"Don't worry about me. I'll be leaving in a day or two, and continue to sing those wonderful stories in the distance."
...
No matter how long the journey is, the wanderers will eventually return home; when they return, they may be human or remains...
But every journey has an end, and every story will end.
Jacob finally left the merchant town to chase William's footsteps.
Although he left, he left half a bag of gold coins.
This includes the previous reward of 15 gold coins in Klin Town, and the income from the sale of those exquisite candlesticks and gold and silver utensils after the two brothers emptied the tower.
Of course, it was originally a full bag of gold coins.
After repeated insistence from Ino, Jacob took half of it. After all, his harvest this time was already outrageous enough, so there was no need to cling to half a bag of gold coins.
Moreover, since he had already planned to take a different path from Teacher Hans, the money must be shared with the Grimm brothers.
Equivalent exchange, fair trade.
In the story of the Black Swan, the Grimm brothers had no merit but also worked hard.
Moreover, compared with the value of the two magic books, sharing half a bag of gold coins was really just a drop in the ocean.
To be honest, he moved the entire pond away.
…
Outside the tavern.
Ino wore a linen robe that suited this era, and a pair of shoes woven from palm leaves.
Slowly walking out of the town, he once again stepped onto the country dirt road covered with mule and horse dung.
Perhaps it was really near the harvest festival, and countless light blue wildflowers bloomed on both sides of the road.
They swayed in the wind, as if they were saying their final farewell to the merchants and travelers passing by.
Please vote, please vote, the double bonus is almost over~
There are only two chapters today. Although Xiaodi wants to write a chapter called "The Market in Merchant Town at the Harvest Festival", after thinking about it, I decided not to. The story ends here. The Grimm brothers left, and Ino also left. Merchant Town will welcome new travelers at dusk...
Finally, please vote, there is only one day left for the double bonus~
