NOVPUBChapter 659 -337: The Curse of Twilight (Seeking Monthly Votes)
鈥淲hat鈥檚 going on?鈥
鈥淲hat happened to the flames? Why did they suddenly disappear?鈥
On the scorched earth where not a blade of grass grew, not far in front of everyone, Bailuo was squatting there, holding two girls in his arms, one older and one younger.
Helen was unharmed except for her clothes; she didn鈥檛 have many injuries.
But Miya鈥
She was covered in wounds, her whole body burned by the Twilight Fire. Even though Bailuo had treated her, she still looked as terrifying as an evil ghost.
...
The Twilight had been shattered, destroyed by Bailuo himself.
This was his right as the Master of Miracles, to use his absolute will to destroy a miracle.
And as long as Bailuo was unwilling to let Twilight return, it could not come back again.
With the disappearance of Twilight, the Twilight Fire naturally dissipated in an instant.
However, before vanishing, Twilight made a prophecy鈥攊t would return.
One day Bailuo would need it again for various reasons.
At that time, Bailuo would also have to make the most tragic choice鈥攚hether to choose the power of Twilight or the people he cherished.
潡堭潣佛潟橉潡?co
鈥楧amn it!!鈥
Bailuo didn鈥檛 know whom to blame.
Blame himself, certainly, if it hadn鈥檛 been for his greed, unwilling to let go of Twilight, feeling reluctant and hoping against hope that it would understand his resolve to protect Yatun.
Then none of this would have happened.
Bailuo didn鈥檛 shy away from this; he acknowledged his own folly and was consumed by self-reproach.
But at the same time, the culprit that Yagen spoke of, the Twilight wasn鈥檛 just sought after by the Book of Yagen alone; someone had drawn it here.
That made Bailuo think of Li Guang and Ying Baizhou.
Back then, it was Dumu鈥檃n who, through some method, made the Book of Yagen find Li Guang, yet Li Guang himself was related to Dumu鈥檃n, so Ying Baizhou only had half control over Li Guang.
鈥業s Twilight the same?鈥
Bailuo had to clear up this matter鈥攚ho exactly did Twilight belong to? Was it solely his own, or like Ying Baizhou, was it playing both sides?
鈥淟ittle Miya!鈥
Lilith was the first to rush over. She wanted to heal Miya but found that her power was utterly unable to heal the burns from Twilight: 鈥淗ow could this happen?鈥
鈥淚t鈥檚 no use, Lilith.鈥
Bailuo knew of Twilight鈥檚 dominance; he handed Little Helen over to Lilith, who conjured clothes to dress the girl and Miya.
At this moment, Miya was in great pain.
She frowned, gritting her teeth secretly as the burns of Twilight clung to her bones like maggots, deeply rooted inside her body, continuously tormenting the young girl.
鈥淚s anyone else hurt?鈥
After regaining consciousness, Bailuo realized what he had done.
Thinking back on his earlier actions, he felt like he had gone mad.
And this also verified Yagen鈥檚 words.
Every use of Twilight made Bailuo lose some of his humanity. This was the first time, and Yagen had blocked it, but even Yagen couldn鈥檛 withstand the second, the third time.
If Bailuo continued to use Twilight, the result would be nothing short of drinking poison to quench thirst.
鈥淪ister.鈥
Bailuo looked at Ying Muyao and asked, 鈥淚s anyone else hurt?鈥
鈥淣o one else is wounded.鈥
Ying Muyao and their actions were fast enough, especially Ali and Xiao Bai, who almost used their bodies to fend off Twilight.
Fortunately, Bailuo had not directly struck with Twilight but just the flames, and mere derivatives weren鈥檛 enough to erode the Miracle Entity.
This was a difference in essence that couldn鈥檛 be changed by mere quantity.
鈥淓ven if others were burned, it is only surface level,鈥 Old Luwei spoke, 鈥渞emove the skin, then use the healing Miracle Power, and they will quickly recover as before.鈥
Only Miya, having been at the heart of the inferno to protect Little Helen, suffered serious injuries.
Irreparable, unhealable, even Ying Muyao and her sister were powerless to help.
鈥淲hy did it turn out like this?鈥
Looking around, the entire Avalon World was shattered and broken, a little bit of Twilight鈥檚 power had brought immense damage to the Miracle World.
It鈥檚 hard to imagine the devastation that such a disaster would wreak if it occurred in reality, on the Yatun Archipelago.
Twilight spares neither friend nor foe; it kills its own people!
With it, there are no People of Yatun, and where there are People of Yatun, it is absent!
鈥淐an鈥檛 even the Divine Era suppress it?鈥
Bailuo still wore the Divine Era Sword Scabbard at his waist. It was a separate part from Twilight, yet the power of the Divine Era Sword Scabbard was clearly not as great as that of Twilight.
At least in terms of offensive power and destructiveness, the scabbard couldn鈥檛 hold a candle to Twilight.
鈥淗mm~~鈥
Amidst her painful groans, Bailuo felt an acute heartache.
The girl was like a sister to him, someone he had watched grow up, but now, Bailuo didn鈥檛 even dare to look at her body covered in scars.
The damage caused by the Miracle Power is temporary, sustained, or permanent.
The temporary can be repaired by a simple treatment.
The sustained requires the Miracle Entity to infuse a large amount of Miracle Power to expel the residual power seeds from within one鈥檚 body for healing.
As for the permanent, that鈥檚 not a problem either, just undergo reincarnation.
To abandon the current body and let Miya be reborn as a Tree Elf, borrowing the Miracle Power of the ancient trees, she would be able to recover.
But!
The permanent damage caused by Twilight was not an ordinary miracle; its specifications were too high!
Twilight was a Supreme Tier Miracle; its flames were equivalent to a derivative of the Supreme Tier.
This kind of power was like a curse, issued by the Supreme Tier. Thus, to break it, one must find a power that was of a higher tier or at least of the same tier.
Take Lilith, for instance, as a Middle Tier Miracle. If she cursed a Miracle Citizen (ineffectual against the Miracle Entity and the Master of Miracles),
then, the Miracle Power of a Lower Miracle would be unable to break it.
Even reincarnation would be useless; they could only seek help from Lilith or other Masters of Miracles.
鈥淢iya!!鈥
Shuster had just been freed by Ying Muyao and immediately ran to his sister鈥檚 side.
He grabbed the girl鈥檚 hand, and seeing her in pain made his heart ache: 鈥淏ailuo brother, Miya鈥︹€ 𝓃𝓸𝓋𝓅𝓾𝒷.𝒸ℴ𝓂
鈥淚鈥檓 sorry.鈥
In front of these children, Bailuo was never a king; he was their guardian, like a brother, like a father.
But now, because of his mistake, his daughter, his sister, had become like this. Bailuo鈥檚 self-reproach and regret left him with nothing else to say but a heartfelt 鈥業鈥檓 sorry.鈥
鈥淢iya鈥︹€
Shuster lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes, yet he forcibly suppressed them: 鈥業 mustn鈥檛 cry, I can鈥檛 cry.鈥
Although he looked slightly matured due to the Miracle Power, Shuster was still just a 10-year-old child.
鈥淚 will definitely cure her.鈥
鈥淪he will be healed.鈥
鈥淒efinitely!鈥
Bailuo handed Miya over to Lilith, asking the Fairy Mother to take care of her: 鈥淚鈥檒l leave things here to uncle, Feiya, and sister to handle.鈥
The best way to break a Miracle Curse has always been clear.
Since even the power of an Upper Miracle is ineffective, then seek a higher power than the Miracle Power.
The flames of Twilight are a Supreme Tier derivative, yet even Pegasus Sherri, a Lower Tier Miracle, couldn鈥檛 do anything about it.
That鈥檚 the answer!
The specs of the Miracle Entity are higher than any Miracle Power. As long as Bailuo can find a new miracle, as long as he can make Miya the Miracle Entity, he would be able to heal her.
So now, Bailuo has to leave for a while.
He needs to search for a new miracle.
Actively, voluntarily, desperately seeking them.
鈥淪herri!鈥
Bailuo mounted his steed, and as the Rainbow Bridge descended, Sherri carried her master away from Avalon World, heading for the Miracle Mainland where miracles might fall.
Even if he had to search the world over, scouring every corner, Bailuo would surely find them!
