Chapter 587 Flying
Heli didn't know what methods Tang Zijun used to help her find some birds, but looking at his expression, for some reason, she seemed to be influenced and wanted to believe him.
In truth, Heri had become somewhat numb during her journey of wandering. Like the elves, she was experiencing unspeakable mental torment. She hadn't communicated with her bird friends for a long time, as if the beautiful times of the past had vanished in an instant.
The difference is that the elves at least have each other, but she is all alone.
Even adults might not be able to bear this kind of inner torment, let alone a young girl like her.
If the human lord in front of her could actually find some bird friends with whom she could communicate, she would be extremely happy, just like when she saw the little gray bird on Qin Nan's shoulder.
If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, she would have gone to greet Little Grey immediately. Seeing another winged being here made Heri incredibly excited.
However, contrary to Heri's expectations, Terella beside her looked somewhat conflicted. "But sir, if the Church of Storms finds out about this, if they find out about Heri's existence, they probably won't let it go."
The image of the woman in the Storm Church on the Riverfront flashed through Tang Zijun's mind. He also wanted to check on the current situation on the Riverfront, so he said, "It's alright, I'll handle this. Let Heri go with Qin Nan for now."
With those words spoken, the matter was considered settled.
Heri naturally wouldn't refuse; she was thinking of making friends with Little Grey. Teresa also had no objections. To be honest, she was already surprised that Tang Zijun agreed to let Heri stay.
After giving some more instructions to Tan Zhixin and Qin Nan, Tang Zijun left. He still had a lot to do upon returning to the dream world.
After watching Tang Zijun leave, Tan Zhixin immediately began to select a place to plant the Tree of Life. The elves were naturally very excited and crowded around Tan Zhixin to choose a site.
Their good attitude towards Tan Zhixin was not only because she held a divine token in her hand, nor because she was brought by Tang Zijun, but mainly because they felt a very close magical power from Tan Zhixin.
The pure and flawless natural magic of the wood element had a great impact on the elves. They had never seen anything like it among humans before, and they even began to wonder if Tan Zhixin was an elf hybrid.
But they quickly dismissed the idea, because it was rare for an individual of such pure wood element to be born among their elven race.
A group of elves swarmed around Tan Zhixin and headed toward the planting area. Qin Nan crossed his arms and turned his gaze to Heri, who was still standing there.
This was also the first time she had ever seen people of a different race. If it weren't for maintaining the dignity of the divine messenger, she probably would have already taken out her phone and taken a selfie with the elves.
Now, looking at the timid little girl in front of him, who seemed to want to speak but dared not, Qin Nan's lips curled into a smile. "Hey, your name is He Li, right?"
"Uh, um!" Heri nodded heavily.
"Great, from now on you'll be following me. If anyone bullies you, just tell me, and I'll stand up for you." Qin Nan quickly adopted the air of a big sister, acting like she was leading her underlings.
However, this approach was surprisingly effective; the unpretentious and down-to-earth manner immediately put Heli, who was somewhat nervous, at ease.
Although she didn't know what "following along" meant, she could feel the concern from Qin Nan.
"As Tang Zijun just introduced, this is Xiao Hui, he's my partner. Say hello."
"Hello, little girl." Little Grey showed unusual politeness.
"You! You can talk!?" Hery was stunned when she heard Little Grey open its mouth to speak, because in her mind, communicating with birds was her talent, but she had never seen a bird that could communicate with a person.
"Of course I can talk. Haven't you ever seen a parrot before?" Little Grey flapped its wings. "But I'm different from other parrots; I have both intelligence and beauty."
Heryl stared blankly at Little Grey, then said softly, "I've never seen a parrot before. I used to have a very good friend who was a lark."
Then she lowered her head again.
"But she never returned after sending a message when the sky island fell."
'
Looking at the little girl's sad appearance, Qin Nan frowned slightly. At this moment, she seemed to see her past self, having lost her family and friends. If it weren't for Xiao Hui's appearance, where would she have gone?
But she quickly cheered herself up, reaching out to ruffle Heri's hair. "Hey, those wings on your back aren't just for show, are they? How about we go for a flight to clear our heads?"
"Fly, fly a circle?" Heryl asked, somewhat surprised. "But Teresa forbids me from flying. She says it will bring disaster to Black City..."
"Don't listen to her nonsense... uh, I mean, Ms. Teresa certainly has her reasons, but now you're one of my people. I'll hold up the sky for you if it falls, so don't be afraid."
As Qin Nan spoke, she raised her hand and flicked her earring. Instantly, the rainbow crystal flower burst forth with a dazzling blue light.
"Transform!"
With a soft shout, a not-too-bright light enveloped Qin Nan's entire body, transforming her clothes into something else entirely.
Then, a pair of azure wings suddenly unfurled from the light, and feathers formed from magic blossomed, falling to the ground and vanishing into nothingness.
"Wow"
Seeing the large and exaggerated wings on Qin Nan's back, Heli's eyes immediately lit up with a gleam no less than when the elves saw the Tree of Life.
After reaching the Green-level Magical Girl, Qin Nan no longer needed to use wind elemental magic wings to assist her flight. However, in order to get closer to Heri, she still chose this method.
With a slight flap of her wings, a gentle breeze lifted Qin Nan's feet, and she slowly lifted herself off the ground, reaching out her hand towards Heli.
"Come on, Heri, let's go see higher!"
'
...Um!"
Hery responded almost without hesitation.
The wings, which had not been spread for a long time, slowly stretched out.
At first, it was always difficult. She was like a fledgling bird struggling to climb out of its nest, flapping its wings unsteadily, trying to break free from the constraints of gravity.
Herri's eyes glistened with tears. She couldn't describe her feelings. She had only one thought: to be able to set foot in the sky again. She was willing to give anything for it.
Qin Nan did not choose to help her with wind magic, but instead smiled and encouraged her from above, watching her clumsy jumps and gradually regain the feeling of flying.
Finally, Heri successfully took to the air, and a bright smile appeared on her previously stiff and cold face, even though her smile was already wet with tears.
Led by Qin Nan, the two figures, one tall and one short, instantly soared into the air, gliding across the sky above Black City, flying freely and emitting bursts of joyful laughter.
Their figures also attracted the attention of the people below.
The residents of Black City thought it was a divine manifestation, and they all knelt down and prayed to the figure in the sky. However, their actions were soon interrupted by the mercenaries.
The mercenaries initially thought it was some kind of monster that had invaded, but it wasn't long before one of them recognized Heri.
Tang Zijun also noticed the two girls in the sky. He really didn't expect Qin Nan to pull Heli up to the sky without saying a word, but he could hear Heli's happy laughter, so he didn't pay any attention to it.
Just then, a calm female voice slowly rang out. "...It seems you've finished your work here."
"Weren't you looking at the documents?" Tang Zijun knew who the voice belonged to without turning around. He turned slightly to look at the shadows behind him. "What, did you need something?"
Scáthach slowly emerged from the shadows, her expression shifting between light and shadow.
"I just... sensed a strange divine power."
