Just after the spring break, Xiao Chen welcomed a very special guest: Vincent Alonso, Tashia's father. As the patriarch of the Alonso family, Vincent is a high-level magician, and also has the titles of a magic lord, a marquis, and an earl. Their family's fiefdom is in the eastern part of the Kingdom of Iberia, and he can be said to be an important figure in the kingdom. However, there is only one reason why he came to Xiao Chen this time, and that is the death, or disappearance, of Tashia.
Vincent Alonso was a handsome middle-aged man, with silver hair and gray eyes like Tashia. He was wearing a robe and sitting on the sofa opposite Xiao Chen, with a complicated expression. Tashia's guard, Belia, stood behind him. Xiao Chen and Luo Ling sat opposite them, waiting for the father to speak.
"Originally, a group of people were going to come here." Vincent said bluntly, "Tasia is the pearl of the family. She is the most outstanding young wizard in our family in recent years and the one with the greatest hope of breaking through to a high level and becoming a great wizard. I don't know how many people in the family regarded her as a treasure. But she died beside you. This is unacceptable to many people, and I am one of them. You have ruined the hopes of the Alonso family over the years."
"Sir Alonso, Tashia is not dead. The most important part of a person is her mind and soul. Although she has lost her body, she still has a complete mind."
"What's the point? Everyone wants to see a living great magician, not a shadow hiding in other people's minds." Vincent raised his head and stared at Xiao Chen. "What's more, she is in this situation now. We have never met her. Who can judge whether she is the real her, not just an idea of yours, or even... just a disguise of your distraction?"
"Sir Alonso, such accusations are groundless and rude." Xiao Chen did not want to have a conflict with a father who had lost his daughter. He controlled his emotions and said, "Knight Belia has entered my meditation space and had contact with Miss Tashia. As a friend of Miss Tashia for many years, I think she should be able to tell the truth from the false."
"Humph, Belia has broken her oath and failed to truly protect my daughter. Does what such a person says have any meaning?" Vincent was obviously very dissatisfied with Belia. He looked at her coldly, and Belia lowered her head in shame. "What's more, she doesn't know any magic at all. In the hands of someone like you who manipulates mental magic, can't she be manipulated at will?"
Luo Ling said, "Mr. Alonso, there is no point in saying more here. We understand that a father who has lost his daughter may have difficulty controlling his emotions, but if you just complain here, it may not be of any help in finding out the whole story. If you are willing, we can go into Xiao Chen's meditation world together to meet her."
"Together? The so-called meditation space is nothing more than a ball of mental power, right? Don't you know that if so many people enter his soul together, with just a little effort, his soul can be completely destroyed?"
"The meditation space is not just a ball of spiritual power. You underestimate its power. It is not the same as what you imagine. Not to mention, for me, there is no problem of insufficient spiritual power space. You don't understand your daughter's condition." Xiao Chen said, "I don't think you should rush to judge anything. It's better to experience it yourself."
“Arrogant!”
————————
However, after entering Xiao Chen's meditation space, Vincent stood on the beach with a dull look on his face. He turned his stiff head left and right, looking at this vast world. He had no idea what a meditation space was, but this did not prevent him from making a basic judgment that this magician named Xiao Chen had extremely powerful spiritual power. No matter what method he used to create this world, it required an unimaginable amount of spiritual power.
"Is this really a person's spiritual world? How is it possible?" He muttered to himself, "Could it be that you are actually performing teleportation?"
"I hope so, then she is a person who exists in the real world." Xiao Chen said. Next to him was a woman in a dress, it was Tasia.
"Father," she called softly.
"Are you really Tasia?" Vincent looked excited. He took a few steps forward to her side and looked at her carefully.
"It's me... It's me." Although this was just an image formed by the spirit, Tasia's behavior at this moment was no different from that of a real girl. Facing her father whom she could hardly meet in reality, tears rolled down her eyes and her voice became choked.
"You are Tasya, I feel it. I can feel your posture, your expression, that you are my daughter." He walked slowly towards her.
When Vincent came to her, Tasia's tense emotions finally reached their limit. She cried bitterly, her body softened, and she fell to the ground. Vincent rushed over, knelt on the ground and hugged her. Tasia threw herself on him and cried bitterly.
The three people around saw the father and daughter hugging each other and crying, and they all stepped aside to make room for them.
Xiao Chen accompanied Luo Ling as they strolled along the beach at dusk, slowly walking towards the other side of the island.
"I wish this is your meditation world. This world is too magnificent and grand. It is impossible to imagine this feeling from your description." Luo Ling's mind moved, and the leather shoes on her feet disappeared, and a pair of white feet stepped on the beach. The cashmere sweater she was wearing turned into a suspender skirt and a silk shawl. As a magician of the Dream Tower, her ability to create things in this world is much stronger than Vincent and Tasia.
Luo Ling stepped into the sea water, feeling the waves washing over her. "Ha, it feels so real."
"I believe your space will not be worse than here." Xiao Chen said.
"Of course. My world is a beautiful field, which I divided into four parts, showing the scenes of the four seasons respectively. There are all kinds of flowers, plants and trees, as well as a small house I built. It's a pity that I haven't learned the magic of the soul bridge yet, otherwise I can invite you next time." Luo Ling said with a smile.
"I will definitely do it in the future." Xiao Chen produced a glass of juice and handed it to Luo Ling.
She took a sip of juice and said, "So Tashia is such a person. I finally got to meet her today. I have to say, she is really pitiful."
"Ha, is this a compliment? In fact, you have been free these days. I don't understand why you only came to see her today." Xiao Chen asked.
