Alien Knights

When her body was broken and her form was gone, Rachel could feel her consciousness being brought into a warm place by a suction force.

The warmth like the sun enveloped her soul and led her through a long passage, finally arriving at a door at the end.

The door slowly opened, and what appeared in front of Rachel was a familiar and intimate scene.

The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.

The square in Muxi City was crowded with people, and there were festive decorations and flags everywhere.

A grand celebration was held here, with countless fine wines and food, and various booths and stalls arranged in all directions of the square.

Rachel's appearance made the Muxi Knights, the Crusaders, and many citizens of Muxi City cheer for her in the square.

"The hero who defeated the undead!"

"Our President!"

"My highest respect to Ms. Rachel!"

Looking at the familiar faces in the crowd, Cumberland, Emerson, Alfonso, Randall, Wayne... Rachel's smile was a little restrained. She seemed not to have expected such a scene.

Among the welcoming crowds lined the streets, Rachel walked towards the center of the square and saw the longing figure.

Todd stood on the high platform of the square, smiled and extended his hand to him.

Slowly walking up the steps, Rachel held Todd's hand and came to the high platform. Looking at the surging crowd in front of her, she asked in a low voice: "I've always wanted to ask, what's going on with that giant dragon?"

Todd replied: "As you can see, these people in front of me voluntarily gave up the protection of heaven and used their souls to give me a chance to fight again."

Rachel looked up at the sky and asked, "So, this is your soul space?"

Todd: "It's not just mine, it's also theirs. The power of everyone's souls came together to build that giant dragon."

Rachel patted her chest and said with some fear: "Before, when I opened my eyes and saw you falling into the magma, I thought I had lost you forever."

Todd let out a long breath: "At that time, my soul went to a place, you will never guess where it is?"

Rachel turned her head curiously, waiting for Todd's answer.

Todd: "I saw Jingsu, and it allowed me to see the secrets of the entire universe."

Hearing the word "Jingsu" mentioned by Todd, Rachel suddenly remembered something.

She quickly looked down, and her face suddenly lost all color.

Noticing the change in the expression on Rachel's face, Todd frowned and asked, "What's wrong?"

Rachel turned to look at the crowd in the square and said with a trembling voice: "Todd, I want to change places."

Todd: "What? You can't adapt to this kind of situation?"

There was uneasiness and sadness hidden in Rachel's words: "This is only one of the reasons, but more importantly, I don't have much time..."

Rachel raised her right hand, and Todd was surprised to find that the former's fingers had slowly begun to fade and become gradually transparent.

Todd was stunned: "How could this happen?!"

Rachel: "Have you forgotten our identities? You and I are both reborn. After death, our souls will enter another reincarnation and start over... That's why I said I don't have much time..."

Todd frowned: "I thought that by bringing your soul here, you could get rid of the shackles of reincarnation."

Rachel shook her head: "The karma of rebirth on the soul is stronger than you think."

Todd looked at the crowd in the audience and asked: "Is there any way to prevent the reborn person from entering reincarnation?"

Rachel shook her head vigorously: "There is no way. Even in such a soul space, the soul of the reborn person will still be extracted and forced to enter the next reincarnation."

Rachel looked down and saw that both palms were gradually becoming transparent.

Todd asked: "I will take you out of here now and change to another place. Where do you want to go?"

Rachel thought for a while and said, "You said before that you once studied in a university on Earth and there was a lake in the park there."

Todd nodded and waved his right hand, and their souls instantly came to the artificial lake on the university campus.

The fallen leaves in autumn fell on the lakeside and fell into the clear lake water, causing ripples.

The small pavilion in the center of the lake, surrounded by benches and a stone table, looks particularly elegant.

Rachel slowly leaned on the bench, looked at the scenery on the lake, and said softly: "It's beautiful here."

Todd sat next to her, trying his best not to look at the other person's disappearing body. He pointed at the building in the distance and introduced: "That building is the teaching building where I used to teach, and the building next to it is the library. , and further away, that small gray building is the graduate student apartment..."

Rachel smiled while listening and said: "There is no war or persecution. I really want to try to study and live carefree on this campus like ordinary people."

Todd wanted to hold Rachel's hand, but found that all he was touching was air.

Rachel's palms and forearms began to slowly become transparent.

A look of pain appeared on Todd's face. He gently held Rachel's waist and said slowly: "I will take you there one day."

Rachel turned her head, looked at Todd, suppressed her sadness, and said with a smile: "You are just talking big words. After rebirth, I will be born in a remote corner, maybe another planet, maybe another universe ."

Todd said decisively: "No matter where you are, I will find you!"

Rachel's eyes were slightly red: "After rebirth, I will no longer look like I do now. My face may be ugly, and my body may be deformed and bloated."

Todd: "No matter what you become, I will always be by your side."

Rachel could no longer hold back her sadness. She closed her eyes, her voice choked, and let tears wash down her face: "After rebirth, I will forget everything, no longer remember your name, no longer remember our past, even I will forget all my promises..."

Todd held Rachel in his arms: "As long as our souls remain unchanged, we will eventually remember each other."

Rachel rested her forehead on Todd's chest, her lower body gradually becoming transparent.

Her body trembled slightly: "Todd, I am not afraid of death, but I am afraid of forgetting."

"For me, the most important people and memories are the most important. If I forget these, it will be more painful and despairing than eternal karma!"

Todd hugged Rachel tightly: "Then we will carve each other into the depths of our souls. Just one voice or one look can awaken that sleeping memory."

Rachel's upper body began to blur, and only her face still had a vague shape and warmth.

Gently placing her lips on her lover's mouth, Rachel, whose tears were still wet, showed her last smile: "Todd, don't forget me, goodbye."

The beautiful woman passed away and disappeared into smoke.
