Chapter 503: Chapter 43
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Tu Ya'an returned to the magic tower at noon the next day. He looked very tired and frustrated, so Cambrona didn't want to make him annoyed. He just said something about his wife simply.
"I see, " Tu Ya'an said. After listening to the introduction of Cambrona, Tu Ya'an thought for a while, and then he said, "She woke up from a long-term coma. It's normal that she may have a messy mind and amnesia. Although your wife's situation is extreme, at least she is still awake. Her action is still normal. She doesn't need someone to take care of her. This is already very good. Next, we can just cure her slowly. I can't come up with an instant therapeutic plan."
If Tu Ya'an said that he could easily cure Jane, Cambrona would definitely not believe him. But what he had said was so solemn and serious. His attitude was quite conservative, and that made Cambrona believe him.
After all, Jane was indeed in a coma for more than a decade. If she had no sequela, then it would be strange.
Tu Ya'an said that he was a little tired today, so he wanted to rest first. After resting, he would search for information, and he would find a way to cure Jane.
When Cambrona saw that Tu Ya'an was exhausted, he advised Tu Ya'an not to worry. Tu Ya'an needed to rest.
Anyway, Jane had woken up and returned to health. As for the problem of her brain, it was not urgent.
After returning to his room, Tu Ya'an sat silently at his desk for a long time and finally sighed deeply.
At this time, Tessa also came to his room. Seeing his depressed face, Tessa asked with concern, "Brother, what happened to you?"
"I just got back from the Highest Tower, " Tu Ya'an said."I met His Majesty, and he told me that I missed the opportunity."
He lowered his head before his sister said something. He said with dismay, "I spent more than ten years on hard work. I paid a lot of money and energy, but I eventually failed."
"It's difficult to complete such a task, " Tessa said."It's not easy for a mortal to take away the divinity of a god!"
"You are right. I also know that it is not hopeful. It's just that when I really face a failure, I begin to realize that I've put too much energy into it over the years. I had too much expectation, " Tu Ya'an said, sighing. He didn't raise his head. He still lowered his head in frustration."I also know that failure is a matter of course. Success is an accident with a very small possibility. But, over the years, I have been thinking about success all night. I have been thinking about gaining the divinity and going beyond the mortals. From then on, I will enjoy eternal joy together with you. Now, I failed. I... I..."
He said "I" for a few times, and finally, he couldn't say it anymore. He whimpered, and his body shivered.
Although he was a Legendary Mage who was supreme in the eyes of mortals, he was actually not much different from ordinary people in the face of heavy blows.
Seeing that her brother was so depressed, Tessa sighed. She went to hug Tu Ya'an, holding his head in her arms.
Because she was a half-dead person, she had no body temperature. Her body was as cold as a corpse. However, this cold body gave Tu Ya'an great comfort. He was frustrated and exhausted at the moment, and he was almost desperate. However, her hug was just like adding new fuel to a bonfire that was going to be extinguished. He could continue to burn.
He quickly revived and began to think about what to do next.
At that time, he had been willing to take over Cambrona's commission to treat a comatose Jane for two reasons: On one hand, he had done it to complete the oracle of His Majesty, Ymirjar Le-Peyroux, the God of Spellcaster. On the other hand, he had done it for himself.
His great mentor (the God of Spellcaster) had told him that Cambrona's wife was actually the only avatar of the God of Shadow and Assassination in the mortal world. The reason why she had been unconscious was that her noumenon had been imprisoned by the great God of Justice. This avatar didn't have any extraordinary power, but great divinity was hiding in the depth of her soul. As long as he could get even a little from the divinity, his strength would go further. He was already a Legendary Master. If he got it, it would be easy for him to enter the demigod realm.
Tu Ya'an had been inspired by that. Over the years, he had tried his best to find a way to steal divinity from Jane's soul. In the end, he had learned a method from a demigod mage who had been living in seclusion for a long time. As long as he spent enough time, he could separate a trace from Jane's soul. He could bind it and slowly digest it.
It was extremely difficult to steal a trace of the soul from the avatar of a god. It should have been impossible, but the old mage had found another path. He had told Tu Ya'an to smash the souls of powerful demon beasts, to wash them into the purest soul power, and then to inject the power into Jane's soul. Jane's soul would expand, and finally, a trace would be separated.
If Tu Ya'an was lucky, there would be some divinity in this trace. Just a little divinity would be enough to serve as a seed for him to enter the demigod realm.
The old mage had repeatedly told him that he needed to use this method slowly. The slower he went, the more stable it would be, and it would be less likely to make mistakes. Therefore, Tu Ya'an had always been stable to avoid problems.
However, beyond everyone's expectation, the God of Shadow and Assassination had been able to escape from the cage built by the God of Justice!
As soon as she had escaped, she had immediately connected with Jane. The energy that Tu Ya'an had injected into Jane's soul over the years was naturally too much for a mortal woman, but it was not worth mentioning for a great god. Therefore, Jane had immediately woken up. All the plans of Tu Ya'an had been abolished, and his hard work over the years had been lost.
In fact, when he had seen Jane wake up, he had been so scared that he had almost fainted. For a moment, he had even thought that the God of Shadow and Assassination had already known his plan and that she wanted to kill him.
Fortunately, Tessa had come to help him to cover it up. He hadn't exposed his plan, and he had deceived Cambrona successfully.
Tu Ya'an had escaped from the danger. However, after the event, he had thought about it. He was not willing to fail like that. Therefore, he had hurried out and gone to the Highest Tower, asking the great God of Spellcaster for help.
He had thought that the God of Spellcaster would be able to help him solve the problem, so he hadn't been worried in his heart. However, the God of Spellcaster had told him that he couldn't help him. The relationship between the gods was disciplined. The God of Spellcaster could give his believer, Tu Ya'an, some hints, but he couldn't do it for Tu Ya'an personally. He couldn't help his believer seize the divinity of the God of Shadow and Assassination directly.
Tu Ya'an had begged him for a long time and had eventually been thrown out by the guards of the Highest Tower. He had been frustrated, disappointed, and desperate.
The next day, he was ill.
A Legendary Mage was ill. That was really surprising. However, Tu Ya'an was seriously ill. Four days later, his condition hadn't improved, and then an unexpected visitor came to the magic tower.
The visitor was a green jellyfish floating in the air. The jellyfish was as big as a palm.
This jellyfish looked really small and cute. However, hearing that the jellyfish came, Tu Ya'an hurriedly got up, regardless of his bad health. He went out of his room to meet the jellyfish under the support of Tessa.
"Welcome, Your Majesty, the Void Mask, " he cautiously said."I don't know why you suddenly come to my place. Do you have any orders to give me?"
Glancing at him, Sui Xiong shook his head. Sui Xiong said, "As a patient, you should rest. The pressure on your heart is too big. You need to relax."
Tu Ya'an was not surprised that Sui Xiong could see through him. He replied with a bitter smile, "Of course, I want to relax, but I can't do that."
Sui Xiong didn't talk about this topic anymore. Everyone had their own secrets in their hearts, and everyone had their own burdens. Tu Ya'an was not able to relax. Naturally, Sui Xiong wouldn't force him to relax.
He came here to see Jane.
The God Ceremony of Javier had ended, and it had been a great success. Now, Javier was the new God of Pleasure. He had two god followers, the God of Celebration and the God of Wine. Although Javier was just a low-level Divine Power, he was a real King God. No one could underestimate him now.
At present, the noumenon of Sui Xiong was participating in the grand celebration held in the Joy of the Wild, but his avatar came here by following the breath left in the artifact dagger of Hasarin, the God of Shadow and Assassination. He came here to check this avatar of the fallen god. He wanted to see if there was any possibility that she could be resurrected.
Shortly afterwards, he saw Cambrona and Jane.
At first glance, Sui Xiong saw through Jane's situation. Over the years, Tu Ya'an had given her too much soul energy, and that had made her soul almost overflowing. If this was just the case, she would just be energetic. However, when Hasarin had escaped, her soul and Hasarin had a momentary synchronization because of that overflow. It was just a very short moment, otherwise the avatar would have been integrated with Hasarin. Jane would have become the true avatar of Hasarin and would have died together with Hasarin when Hasarin had fallen.
The synchronization at that moment had caused great confusion in Jane's thoughts. The short lifespan of a mortal was not worth mentioning for a god who had long years. Therefore, she now had a strange sense of dislocation. She mistakenly thought that she was Hasarin, but Hasarin had fallen. Therefore, Jane felt that she was already dead.
Sui Xiong didn't want to conceal the truth. He had told them those things, and then they understood the reason. Looking at the green jellyfish that had once appeared in front of him that year, Cambrona came up with an idea in his heart. He immediately knelt down, asking Sui Xiong to help save his wife.
"Your wife is not ill, " Sui Xiong said. He didn't want to get involved in this matter.
"But according to her situation, something is wrong with her, " Cambrona said. He kept kneeling on the ground."Your Majesty, please cure her. I don't expect that she can be completely cured. At least she can recognize me. She can remember the years that we spent together."
Sui Xiong looked at the man. He had been fat in the past, but now he was tired and withered. His face was full of vicissitudes. Sui Xiong was silent for a long time, and finally nodded.
"Well, come to Void City. There is a big god tree outside the city. I will wait for you under the god tree, " Sui Xiong said.
Cambrona was immediately overjoyed. He hurriedly said goodbye to the others and then set off for Void City.
