509 Mysterious Man (1/2)

”Nonsense, you are talking nonsense! My father is definitely going to revive!” Reina instantly let out a hysterical roar as anger could be seen in her eyes. ”Damn Human, don't even think of deceiving me, I'm not that easily fooled!”

She simply couldn't believe the young mage's words.

During the Draconic War, her father had firmly stood on the side of mankind and helped humans deal with Chromatic Dragons and Pure-blooded Elves. Although she still didn't know why her father did so, she knew her father had his own thoughts. Unfortunately, during the final battle, her father had fallen.

At that time, Reina had looked at her father's corpse in a daze, so sad that she couldn't even control her tears until she fell unconscious. When she woke up, she discovered someone standing beside her. This man had been covered in a black robe and she couldn't make out his appearance. He called himself her father's friend.

The muddle-headed Reina simply wasn't in the mood to pay attention to that human and just nodded half-heartedly. He talked for over half an hour, but she didn't really listen and just kept nodding robotically. However, when he explained why he came to find her, she vaguely heard that he was planning to revive her father.

Her first reaction had been disbelief...

Her father's life had completely faded away... How could he be revived?

She doubted her ears...

But after he repeated his words, Reina confirmed that she hadn't misheard. The mysterious black-gowned man truly had claimed that there was a way to resurrect her father.

Although she could hardly believe it, she couldn't give up on that opportunity. After a long talk, she learnt about the existence of the Raising Dragon Array. That miraculous array had an unfathomable ability, it could revive beings on the verge of death.

Later, she found out that the mysterious man that had come looking for her was a formidable existence no weaker than her father and had an exalted position among the humans.

Although Reina had just reached adulthood back then, she felt that such a formidable powerhouse simply had no reason to trick her, so she believed that her father might have a shot at resurrection.

She looked for that mysterious person and moved her father's skeleton to the Winter Plane as per his requirements. She then waited for a very long time, guarding this place for millennia to make sure nothing would happen midway that could prevent her father from being able to come back to life.

She had been looking forward to reuniting with her father for several thousand years.

But now, this human who suddenly charged into her palace told her that her father simply couldn't come back to life and that he would instead become Undead. How could she accept that?

After all, she had been enduring endless silence and solitude for millennia just to reunite with her father...

Moreover, that mage who stood at the peak of the Heaven realm had promised that the Raising Dragon Array would revive her father... It would only need a very long time.

Why would someone with that kind of power need to deceive her?

Thus, she unhesitantly felt that the young mage was trying to deceive her with some kind of ulterior motive. After all, the promise of a peak Heaven Rank powerhouse had much more weight behind it. How could she choose to believe an ignorant young mage? Moreover, her heart subconsciously wanted to deny the young mage's words, as she had been hoping to reunite with her father all this time.

”Haha, it looks like I have to find a way to make you believe me…” Lin Yun frowned and chuckled humorlessly. Reina's reaction was within his expectations, but he didn't care because he really did have a way to prove his words.

After absorbing the mana from a few high-level mana crystals, he recovered somewhat. By rousing his Magic Array to its maximum, he quickly discovered a Frost Bird a few hundred meters away from the palace. In a flash, a burst of mana turned into a black hand and extended outside the palace, dexterously grabbing that Frost Bird before carrying it back to the palace.

Cries could be heard coming from the Frost Bird. In fact, this Frost Bird was level 25, so it couldn't be considered weak. But Lin Yun easily grabbed it and snapped its neck without hesitation.

”You… What are you doing!?”

Seeing the young mage's actions and his self-confidence, Reina's heart suddenly started beating faster. 'Don't tell me this young mage can really prove that the Heaven Mage tricked me?'

As she thought about this possibility, she couldn't keep her heart calm.
