These people who comes are witch, Tasa have not lied, Ash can feel magic power that in their within the body breeds, but can also distinguish strong and weak-- approximately at present this leader especially so, her magic power is a sharp dagger, the light concentrates on to feel likely can think the faint stabbing pain. 来的这些人都是女巫,塔萨没有说谎,灰烬能感受到她们体内中孕育的魔力,还能大致分辨出强弱——眼前这位带头者尤为如此,她的魔力像是一把锋锐的尖刀,光是专注去感受都会觉得隐隐刺痛。 „I called Ash, saw you very much happily, Cooperation Association sisters.” One side she places the great sword, goes forward to hug with four witch one by one...... It is not right, she thinks, should be five. Ash raised head, gazes at the sunspot that the space is circling, „doesn't she get down?” “我叫灰烬,很高兴见到你们,共助会的姐妹们。”她将巨剑放在一边,上前和四名女巫一一拥抱……不对,她想,应该是五名。灰烬抬起头,注视着天上盘旋的黑点,“她不下来吗？” „She shows the way for us,” leader said with a smile, „I was Nightingale,” then she aimed at other three witch, „Scroll, Leaf and Echo.” Finally on pouts upwards, „that little girl is Lightning.” “她为我们指路,”带头者笑道,“我是夜莺,”接着她指向其他三位女巫,“书卷、叶子和回音。”最后朝天上努努嘴,“那位小姑娘是闪电。” When Ash looks to Scroll startled, the magic power feelings of opposite party within the body are very weak, is the fog proliferates the whole body likely generally, this feeling makes her surprised, „Exceed?” 灰烬望向书卷时怔了怔,对方体内的魔力感触十分薄弱,像是云雾一般遍布全身,这种感觉让她大为惊讶,“超凡者？” The Nightingale expression also appears somewhat accidental/surprised, „can you see magic power?” 夜莺的表情也显得有些意外,“你能看到魔力？” „Did not see, is feels,” Ash said that „Exceed can realize that magic power shape and flowing, this was because body each part had been transformed by it, I think that this sisters had certainly the similar feeling with me.” “不是看到,是感受到,”灰烬解释说,“超凡者能察觉魔力的形态和流动,这是因为身体各个部分被它改造过,我想这位姐妹一定和我有同样的感受。” Scroll smiles the nod saying: „Indeed, it made me find many companions in the boundless huge crowd.” 书卷微笑着点头道:“的确,它让我在茫茫人海中找到了不少同伴。” „Is Exceed very scarce?” Nightingale asked. “超凡者很稀少吗？”夜莺问。 What the opposite party first pays attention is the quantity, but is not " Exceed is anything " ...... Ash mused, Cooperation Association has also heard existence of Exceed Witch? This is secret that Church prohibits severely, because the ability direct role of Exceed Witch in oneself, was not restricted by God Punishment Stone, any expose Exceed, is the Church's prime enemy. 对方首先关注的是数量,而不是「超凡者是什么」……灰烬暗想,难道共助会也听说过超凡女巫的存在？这是教会严厉封禁的机密,因为超凡女巫的能力直接作用于自身,不受神罚之石制约,任何一名暴露的超凡者,都是教会的头等敌人。 „In probably several thousand witch, will present Exceed,” is thinking at heart, the look on her face as usual, „until now, I have still seen in compatriot, in addition Scroll, only has three people.” The Ash stop moment, „was right, I remember that the Cooperation Association leader as if calls Cara, she fortunately?” “大概数千名女巫中,才会出现一位超凡者,”心里这么想着,她脸上的神色依然如常,“迄今为止,我见过的同胞里,加上书卷,也只有三人。”灰烬停顿片刻,“对了,我记得共助会的领袖似乎是叫哈卡拉,她还好吗？” „She died,” Nightingale shakes the head, „dies on seeking for the Holy Mountain road.” “她死了,”夜莺摇摇头,“死在寻找圣山的路上。” „...... Really is a regrettable news,” Ash lowers the sound saying that what made her some caring, when the opposite party discussed this issue, has not revealed too the sadness, „who that present your is the new leader?” “……真是个遗憾的消息,”灰烬压低声音道,不过令她有些在意的是,对方谈论这个问题时,并没有露出太多伤感之情,“那如今你们的新领袖是谁？” „We return to Border Town to chat first again slowly,” she smiled, „you can see him quickly.” “我们先回边陲镇再慢慢聊,”她笑了笑,“你很快就能见到他。” ...... …… After the group enter small town, Ash has discovered not the place of suiting. These Cooperation Association witch are holding the flare unexpectedly, frank and upright walking on street. Even if after at nightfall, small town is not a deathly stillness, the paper windows of many inhabitant disclosed that the weak flame, listens carefully, child's the sound of intermittent reading aloud. 一行人进入小镇后,灰烬发现了不对劲之处。这几位共助会女巫竟然举着火把,光明正大的走在街道上。而且即使入夜后,小镇也不是一片死寂,不少住户的纸窗透露出微弱的火光,仔细听去,还有孩子的阵阵朗读之声。 Although candle this type of thing cannot say expensively, but common people's savings is limited, less than when necessary easily will not use. small town will have these many inhabitants to select candle in the evening unexpectedly, is the inconceivable scene, in addition the reading sound character by character, are they are teaching the child to study to be literate? 蜡烛这种东西虽然说不上有多昂贵,但平民的积蓄有限,不到必要时绝不会轻易使用。小镇晚上居然会有这么多住户点起蜡烛,已是不可思议的景象,加上一个字一个字的阅读声,难道他们是在教孩子学习认字？ However the opposite party does not raise, she is also disinclined to ask. In any case here is not the place of long occupying, she must do, as soon as possible leads everybody to leave. 不过对方不提,她也懒得开口询问。反正这儿不是久居之地,她所要做的,就是尽快带大家离开。 Across street of spreading across, the group approach the castle region more and more, Ash has been able to see guard who in the curtain of night the jet black fence and stands guard. „Where do we want to go to?” She cannot bear the sound said. 穿过纵横交错的街道,一行人越来越靠近城堡区域,灰烬已能看到夜幕中漆黑的围墙和站岗的守卫。“我们要去哪里？”她忍不住出声道。 „The Border Town castle, will draw near.” answer her is Nightingale. “边陲镇城堡,就快到了。”回答她的是夜莺。 „Wait/Etc.,” she cannot help but slows down the footsteps, „that is the feudal lord housing place.” “等等,”她不由得放慢脚步,“那是领主居住的地方吧。” „Yeah, is the witches family/home.” “嗯,也是女巫们的家。” „Did you reach the agreement with feudal lord?” Ash frowned. Even if Cooperation Association is formidable in the local influence, is hard with having God Punishment Stone feudal lord and Church contends directly, therefore the only possibility only then cooperation-- this is also one of the some witch fumbles survival outlets. What a pity facing being in weak witch community, most feudal lord is not willing to sit to discuss the condition fairly, but is squeezing and claim without limits, therefore this road died of suffocation quickly. “难道你们跟领主达成了协议？”灰烬皱起了眉头。就算共助会在当地势力再强大,也难以跟拥有神罚之石的领主和教会正面抗衡,因此唯一的可能只有协作——这也是部分女巫摸索的生存出路之一。可惜面对处于弱势的女巫群体,大多数领主都不愿公平地坐下来谈条件,而是无止境的压榨与索取,所以这条路很快被堵死了。 „Is,” in the Nightingale tone does not have the unwillingness that many receives to oppress but actually, instead appears has fun, „at least we have signed the contract with your highness.” “算是吧,”夜莺的语气中倒没有多少受压迫的不甘,反而显得乐在其中,“至少我们都和殿下签过契约。” Ash is actually not able to be happy for them, contract type does not have the boundedness to say with the thing that the written records write, when feudal lord was weary has paid or has wanted to stop the unequal relationship, only need it rub one group to throw into fireplace then it will be alright. Nobody is witch will defend against injustice, their status are similar to a lone boat in sea, has the danger of tilting anytime. 灰烬却无法为她们感到高兴,契约这种用纸笔写出来的东西毫无约束性可言,当领主厌倦了付出或者想要中止平等关系时,只需把它揉成一团扔进壁炉就行。没有人会为女巫打抱不平,她们的地位就如同大海中的一叶孤舟,随时都有倾覆的危险。 Was good came because of oneself, she thinks, leading them to leave here, went to another side of sea. There has homeland that witch establish, can be far away from the threat of Church and earthliness. 好在自己来了,她想,带着她们离开这里,前往大海的另一边。那里有女巫自己建立的家园,可以远离教会和俗世的威胁。 Across the castle front door, really guards the appearance to witch becomes accustomed, but also greeted mutually. 穿过城堡大门,果然守卫们对女巫的出现习以为常,还相互打了个招呼。 Compared with the Kingdom Capital palace, the feudal lord castle of this place wants without doubt narrow and small and dim much. On the wall of corridor is only hanging several alone flares, the ray that drags is unable to cover the entire stone slab ground, walks made one think somewhat depressing. Until enters the reception room, the flame suddenly is bright. 比起王都的宫殿,此地的领主城堡无疑要狭小和昏暗得多。过道的墙上只挂着几支孤零零的火把,摇曳的光芒无法覆盖整个石板地面,行走在其中令人觉得有些压抑。直到进入会客厅,火光才陡然明亮起来。 In the hall, Ash saw many witch, they as if wait for in this for a long time, sees oneself appear, applauds to welcome in abundance. Nightingale goes forward two steps, is preparing to make the brief time, witch flushed suddenly. 大厅里,灰烬看到了更多的女巫,她们似乎在此等待已久,见到自己出现,纷纷鼓掌以示欢迎。夜莺上前两步,正准备做简单介绍的时候,一名女巫忽然冲了过来。 „Wendy!” Some people shout. “温蒂！”有人喊道。 Ash noted the motion of opposite party, but has not adopted any countermeasure-- she to feel surprised and joy of opposite party, did not have the hostility only. Quick, a warm body hugged her. 灰烬注意到了对方的行动,但没有采取任何反制措施——她能感受到对方的惊讶和欣喜,唯独没有敌意。很快,一具温暖的身躯拥抱了她。 „You lived unexpectedly,” the sound of opposite party filled excitedly, „thank you had saved me at that time.” “你居然活下来了,”对方的声音充满激动,“谢谢你当时救了我。” Ash startled, „you are......” 灰烬怔了怔,“你是……” „I called Wendy,” she loosened both hands, looked straight ahead both eyes of Ash, „the little girl of that choir. Do you still remember me?” “我叫温蒂,”她松开双手,直视灰烬的双眼,“那个唱诗班的小姑娘。你还记得我吗？” ...... …… In two bedrooms, only remaining Ash and Wendy two people. 二层的卧室内,只剩下灰烬和温蒂两个人。 She has not thought that will meet the partner of monastery here. 她没想到会在这里遇见修道院的伙伴。 Said that is the partner also somewhat reluctantly, if not for that night, she will not have occurring together with Wendy, in fact, she had not paid attention to that to bury at that time in the underground room, is the same with her, was seized and brought to come in misfortune forcefully. Does not think, the opposite party finally also became witch. 说是伙伴也有些勉强,若不是那个夜晚,她根本不会与温蒂产生交集,事实上,她当时并未注意那个掩埋在地下的房间内,还有一名和她一样,被强行扭送进来的不幸者。更不会想到,对方最后也成为了女巫。 „After I flee the monastery, settles down in Sea Wind Region.” Wendy opens the mouth to say silent for a long time, „afterward inquired the news that monastery the same day as if there is fire, inside children are also missing.” “我逃离修道院后,在海风郡定居下来。”温蒂沉默许久才开口道,“后来打听到的消息,修道院当天似乎发生大火,里面的孩子们也都下落不明。” „Fire?” Ash shakes the head, „that is Church does, to cover this scandal. I have massacred some superintendents and try to prevent my Judgement Army, until...... Church's God Punishment Army rushes. The scabs on my eye are they stay behind, if promptly does not choose to escape, when following God Punishment Army rushes, I only feared that must die there.” “大火？”灰烬摇摇头,“那是教会自己做的,为了掩盖这桩丑闻。我杀掉了部分管理者和试图阻止我的审判军,直到……教会的神罚军赶到。我眼睛上的伤疤就是他们留下的,如果不是当机立断选择逃跑,等到后续的神罚军赶到,我只怕就要死在那里了。” „God Punishment Army......” Wendy stared in a big way the eye repetition say/way, „what was that?” “神罚军……”温蒂瞪大了眼睛重复道,“那是什么？”
