Chapter 292

"Do you need me to fill the magic in the ring?"

Xuna's fingers seemed to move restlessly on the bed, as if she was playing the piano - but Will knew that she had never learned piano.

"No need, it's already full, and it can definitely handle most attack situations."

"Is your staff okay? No need for any repairs or anything like that?"

"It's always been well maintained."

"Then... let me think... what else..."

She lowered her head, no longer looking at the sunset that symbolized the constant flow of time and the approaching death of Will entering the dungeon in front of her, but looking at her toes.

Then, her fingers crossed the end of the line connecting the two people and touched Will little by little.

"You reminded me of something else."

"...What?"

"My father gave me a lot of travel expenses. A large part of it was kept by Iel, and I took a small part myself. The small part is also a lot of money, but I have spent three quarters of it."

His right hand moved towards the midpoint of the two people, and finally touched the tip of Xuna's slightly long nails.

"Is that so? Haha, this may be your last chance to show off as the young master of the Systrom family."

"I have the money in the bank, and the password is my birthday. Go and withdraw it."

"I am not a person who is short of money."

"It is the salary for hiring you as my team member."

"Okay, then I will take it."

It was completely dark.

You can see the stars, the moon and the dazzling street lights.

The two people's fingers intertwined while they were talking about some words that they would bring up when they couldn't find a topic to talk about.

"..."

"..."

After a tacit silence, the two people looked at the moonlight and felt the coolness of the open window. They didn't look down or look at each other, and then they took a deep breath.

"Xuna, since tomorrow is the day I will welcome death."

"Will, since tomorrow is the day you will cross death."

"Then... do it?"

In unison, the two turned their heads, and the shadow of the moonlight stretched long on the bed.

Chapter 325 "Task System" (3k)

Novis Town

Compared to the first floor that had been bombed into a mess, the second floor of the "Morning Star" cabin was neat and clean, but also covered with dust. Because the window was open, snowflakes drifted in and melted, leaving a little water stain on the ground.

Finally, the three of them remembered.

There has always been an ignored mystery about Will, whom they loved...

The red-covered notebook that he never put down and was even very worried about them seeing.

"Iel remembers that the young master would carefully read the book every night, and seemed to write new things on it every night."

"When he was in class, the book was basically kept by his hand. In other words, he usually held the textbook in one hand and covered the book with the other hand during class."

"...Well, even when he was in the royal family, he never gave up the book every afternoon."

The three discussed.

In their memories, it seemed that the red-covered book appeared all the time, and Will even carefully kept the name from them.

But...

It seems that this book is not that important. He never mentioned the contents of the book in front of them. Except that he would sort it out himself at night, he had never heard him say or introduce what the book was like to them.

It was so unimportant...

This time he left them to see Shuona, and he did not bring this book with him.

The three of them walked very slowly.

They did not know why, but they walked very slowly even though it was only a short staircase.

Although they remembered this extremely important clue, they seemed to have the emotion of not wanting to open it.

It was like there was a curse. The book that Will protected so carefully, some things in it would definitely "change" something important after they saw it.

Second floor.

The door of Will's room.

Only the door of this room was clean, and the "Will" on it was also wiped clean. It was done by Iai'er.

But the door of this room seemed to have never been opened. Looking inside from the crack below the door, a thin layer of dust could be seen.

Iai'er was about to open the door, but was stopped by Leah grabbing his wrist.

"Before we go in, let's... unify the information we know now. You, have to answer a question..."

"What?"

Iai's hand left the door handle.

"Tell the truth, have you read that book? To what extent do you know it? Now... we have already fought each other, there is no need to hide it."

The three people fell into a brief silence.

"That book... Iai has read it, but not the content in the middle, only the last few pages. Because... because the young master didn't seem to want Iai to see it, so he didn't dare to turn more pages."

"I only remember that I turned to the last page, and that page was full of... the heroine. This is very strange."

"... I haven't read it. Because I think it doesn't matter to open the book he wrote... before."

Except for Treya, the other two showed that they had flipped through the book.

The three people fell silent again at the door.

But no one opened the door.

In the quiet moonlight, they were actually thinking about one thing...

Did they know Will less than they thought?

Did they only see one side of Will?

Did they not care that much about Will's own thoughts?

Even until now...

They, whose lives were "changed" by Will and whose deep love was born, finally realized...

Behind their madness, self-centeredness, and attention, what made them become such Will's...

What was the reason for persistence, foresight, and calmness?

He was too devoted, too far-sighted, but seemed too undemanding.

He was frank and straightforward, and unreserved, but seemed to have a deep secret that no one told.

All the mysteries seemed to be hidden in this room that belonged to him, in that small book.

Leah, who was the most direct and active, broke the silence. She put her hand on the door handle again and turned to look at the other two.

"Well, at least none of us knew the content in advance to deceive us into reading it. We... are equal."

"The secret of the book written by the young master will be revealed by us equally..."

"Open the door."

They reached out and opened the door of Will's room at the same time.

Will's room seemed to remain the same as before he left. It can be seen that he opened the wardrobe before leaving, but he did not take out all the clothes and carefully select them, but directly took away the summer clothes they chose for him at that time.

Speaking of which...

It seemed to be summer when he left.

As for other places, Will's room is indeed not "neat", but it is definitely "simple". His weapons were taken away by Leah, and apart from that, there was not even any equipment or extra toys left here.

The utensils on the bed remained the same as they were folded by Iel after he woke up.

The windows were closed, and they had not been cleaned for a long time. After experiencing the autumn rain and winter snow, there was a thin layer of traces left by rain.

If there hadn't been a thick layer of dust on the ground, they might have thought that this room looked like Will had just left.

Of course...

And most importantly...

They all looked at the book in the middle of the table at the same time.

That book, which they had high hopes for, must have some "secrets" that Will hadn't told them.

"The book is there."

Iel spoke calmly and walked towards the book.

"We can all see it. Now we just hope to see what it can tell us."

Leah followed her and walked over slowly.

Iel stopped in front of the book, then she took out a glove from her pocket, put it on naturally, and pulled it, as if she needed extra ceremony and respect to open this book.

"Wait, don't open it yet."

Treya stopped her outstretched hand.

"What's wrong?"

"What's the title of the book?"

"Yeah. I remember that he seemed to have written a name on this book. He didn't hide the name, and you could often see a corner of it... The only problem is..."

"Task system..."

While the two were discussing, Iel had taken the lead and turned over the book that was originally upside down on the table and read out the name.

"...Is that the name? Iel should...have read it correctly?"

The name was written on the front of the book on the table.

"Tasks...refer to the tasks assigned by the Adventurer's Association? I understand. The system behind? Queen with a slightly better history, what do you think?"

"Is the system...some kind of organized whole? What it wants to say is...the whole formed by all the tasks?"

"I don't understand! Say something that Iel can understand...Besides, the word behind...doesn't it refer to the surname of the Systrom family?"

A name that the three people present could understand separately, but when put together, it seemed like a name they had never heard of before.

When I analyzed this name for the first time, it seemed to add a thick fog to Will's identity and the mystery around him.

"Don't think so much, just open it and you'll know."

Treya was very decisive. She rushed to the table directly, then reached out and touched the silver paper cover. Her fingers slightly rubbed off some of the dust on it and opened it a little roughly.

After opening it, she saw a line of words that were very familiar.

On the first page, it filled the entire page - from the font, it can be seen that it was written by Will himself. It's just that when he wrote this line of words, he should not be very old, and the letters were a little crooked.

[Maid Iel Chapter. ]

"Huh?"

"Wait wait wait -! This this this this... This is Iel's name!"

Iel, who was watching from the side, pressed the page tightly with her gloves.

"Since the young master wrote it specifically for Iaier... then only Iaier can read it!"

Trea was about to say something, but Iaier stretched out his hand as if he was particularly nervous, and a faint coldness directly pressed against Treia's neck.

"Iaier, we are now on the same front, you should show us what it is."
