Chapter 120: Some things can't be locked

Views:

“It’s actually so outrageous!”

Watching her toes leave the boat and fly into the white mist, Sonia was so excited that goose bumps appeared all over her body. It was like seeing the first film of Deda Rose on the screen. She was shocked by this miraculous scene.

"Don't get excited, don't get excited." Ash soothed, "We have to cooperate with each other. If something goes wrong, we will fall."

Sonia was very confident at this time: "Didn't you say that there is a bond between us? If there really is a bond, then this kind of tacit understanding is not worth mentioning at all."

She glanced at Ash and held his right hand tightly with her left hand, as if by doing so, their hearts would be connected. Their silver wings flapped at the same frequency, like lovebirds supporting each other and flying together.

"We finally found so many clues about the golden fish, finally figured out the truth about the golden fish, and finally discovered the correct way to fly..."

Ash coughed solemnly: "I deduced the truth, and I also discovered the flying method. Of course, Sword Princess, you also made a huge contribution..."

"Yes, yes, you are amazing, spectator," Sonia smiled brightly, "I declare that your position in my heart tonight is comparable to that of Deda Rose!"

"Only tonight? And who is Deda Rose?"

"That's my idol! You should be content with just one night! Compared to your previous status in my heart, at least I put you on the same level as others this time."

"I'm curious what I was compared to in your mind before..."

The two of them giggled for a while, then Ash stopped laughing, looked up at the gray sky, and asked seriously, "Are you ready?"

"Yes." Sonia nodded heavily.

"Viewer, fly."

thump!

With the flapping of a pair of silver wings, they rushed into the white mist like flying birds, circling and rising. The Sea of Knowledge was getting farther and farther away from them, and Ash's "Virtual Realm Map" began to become chaotic. The higher the white mist, the thinner it became, and one could even vaguely see a golden light at the end!

"How did those magicians find companions to fly with them in the past?" Sonia suddenly asked, "Can other magicians form a team to explore the virtual world besides us?"

"Maybe, but I guess it's a more incredible possibility."

"What is possible?"

"That means they met their real friends in the virtual world."

"I happened to meet another magician in the virtual world. This magician happened to be a friend I knew. Both of them happened to have spread their silver wings. And they happened to know the truth about the golden fish? So many coincidences that require luck..."

“It is called a miracle precisely because it requires so many coincidences.”

As they got closer to the sky, the white mist became thinner and thinner, and they flew higher and higher. At this time, they also felt that their "bodies" were getting heavier and heavier, as if the gravitational pull of the sea of knowledge on them had increased, and their hands, feet and even their bodies seemed to be filled with lead.

The ocean of knowledge is blocking stowaways.

If the two of them really flew by miracle, they would most likely stop here. Just like the explorers, their flying dreams were pulled down by the heavy gravity, crashed into the deep sea, and shattered like crystal.

But the swing of the virtual wings seemed to require no effort, and could easily cut through the white mist and resist gravity. Even if their souls were bound by the sea of knowledge, the virtual wings could still allow them to travel the world.

As she got closer and closer to the golden light, and as she was about to sneak from the Sea of Knowledge to the Continent of Time, Sonia became more and more panicked, and her breathing became heavier.

She suddenly couldn't control her emotions and couldn't help asking the question that had been hidden deep in her heart: "Why me?"

She herself didn't understand her own feelings. She could obviously ask this question after it was over, tomorrow, or in the future, but she had to get an answer right now, even if it was not the answer she expected.

Obviously, this might harm her interests, but at least at this moment, Sonia felt that some things were more important than her promotion to the second wing.

Ash looked at her in surprise. Although it was confusing, he understood what Sword Lady was asking.

I intended it as a joke, but when the words came to my lips they became the truth: "It's just a coincidence."

Sonia concealed her emotional fluctuations well and showed a business-like smile: "I knew it, it seems that I am lucky-"

"I'm lucky." Ash said softly, "It is because of your coincidence that a series of miracles happened later."

"'Some things cannot be locked up. Even if their hands and feet are tied, they will still grow wings and fly.'" He suddenly recalled this sentence: "Sword Princess, I can fly not because of the Silver Wings, but because of you."

"When my hands and feet were tied, when I was trapped in prison, you became my window to explore the virtual world, and you helped me gain the power of a magician."

Ash looked at Sonia and smiled, "Sword Princess, you are my wings."

Sonia stared at him blankly. Under the increasingly dazzling golden light, the black mist that obscured the viewer's face quickly dissipated, revealing an exquisitely crafted smile and a pair of bright eyes.

After knowing each other for many days, Sonia finally saw his face.

At this moment, the dissatisfaction, complaints, worries, etc. that had been lingering in her heart for a long time all disappeared. She had never felt this way in her life. She was happier than when she first wore new clothes, more excited than when she first saw Galaxia, and sweeter than when she first ate ice cream... It was like... It was like the emptiness in her heart that she had never noticed was quietly filled.

Finally, she held Ash's hand tightly, hummed softly through her nose, and whispered:

"You are my golden fish too."

Ash chuckled, "What a weird metaphor. It feels like I'm your stepping stone."

Sonia softly defended herself: "That's not what I meant..."

"Just kidding, I know what you mean. Then... let's go see a real golden fish!"

thump!

When they flew over the outermost layer of white mist, what came into view was a golden ocean that was as clear as a mirror, as vast as the ocean, and occupied the entire sky.

As the silver wings flapped, the golden sea in the sky seemed to be stimulated, causing waves. The rolling golden sea water reflected the distinct feathers of the silver wings, which suddenly looked like clearly layered fish scales!

In the blink of an eye, the vast golden sea turned into a golden fish belly!

"This is... the truth about the golden fish!" Sonia murmured softly.

Ash was also deeply shocked by this spectacle, but he did not linger at all. Instead, he showed a satisfied smile and flew into the golden ocean holding Sword Girl's hand!

The next second, the world turned upside down!
