Soul Weapon Awakening, My Weapon Is A Harmonica Chapter 7
Advertisement
After the enlistment ceremony ended, Copperfield, who was walking on the road, had a myriad of thoughts.
"Back then, my father, for this country and for all the commoners, stepped onto the road of enlistment."
"In the end, he relied on the battles between life and death, the heart-wrenching separation, stepping on the corpses of Magical Beasts, and stood at the peak of the strong."
"But in the end!"
"Father defeated the magical beasts and fought his way through the overwhelming waves of magical beasts."
"He opened up a paradise in the southern borders!"
"He protected the safety of Titan City for decades!"
"In the end! In the end, he still couldn't defeat this rotten bureaucratic system!"
"He couldn't defeat these dirty human desires!"
"Because father chose to join the army and became a general, he was also bound by this system!"
Every time he thought of this, Copperfield could not help but feel wronged for his father!
"Wronged."
"I naturally have to clear my father's name!"
"It's just that this time, my path is different from father's!"
"I want to kill magical beasts, and I also want to break this dirty and despicable power system!"
Copperfield, who was walking towards home step by step, seemed to be carrying a heavy burden!
Terrence looked at Copperfield and naturally understood what his young master was thinking.
Looking at his young master, Terrence seemed to want to open his mouth and say something, but he immediately shook his head and sighed softly.
"Young master, let's go home first."
There were no words along the way.
Walking back to his home, Copperfield sighed softly.
He understood that the path he had chosen was filled with darkness.
But if he didn't do this, how could he break through this injustice!
After a long time.
Copperfield opened his mouth and asked Terrence with a calm tone.
"Teacher, I see that you have something to say."
Hearing this, Terrence's expression was complicated, but in the end, he still spoke as if he had made up his mind.

"Young master, General Russell's soul back then was also a harmonica."
"Or rather, the legacy soul passed down from generation to generation in the Russell family was a harmonica called the Elegy."
When the Copperfield heard this, his pupils trembled.
Countless thoughts flashed through Copperfield's mind.
He didn't know how to answer all of these questions.
It was as if he knew what Copperfield was thinking.
Terrence continued to speak calmly.
"That year, when the ancestor of the Russell Family first awakened the soul, Elegy, the moment the soul was summoned, the demon's whisper seemed to come from the depths of the soul of the first patriarch. The whisper pointed to the border of the Crobal Mountains near Titan City."
"When the first patriarch of the Russell Family followed the direction of the Whisper and went to the Crobal Mountains to investigate, he found that at the place where the demon's whisper pointed to, there was an altar that belonged to the Demons of Hell."
"After the first head of the Russell Family walked to the altar, the Devil's Whisper once again surrounded the ears of the first head of the Russell family, luring the first head of the Russell family to sign a contract with the Devil and sell his soul."
"In this way, he could obtain the true power of Elegy!"
"Of course, the first head of the Russell Family didn't sign a contract and recorded this matter in the family tree of the Russell family."
"According to the usual practice, the successor of the Russell Family would enter the ancestral land and read the ancestral manuscript after awakening his soul at the age of 16."
"That year, your father, the previous head of the Russell family, hesitated for a long time in the face of the continuous attacks of the magical beast tide, but he still didn't choose to sign a contract with the demon."
"He chose to cultivate by himself in an attempt to break the shackles."
"That year, the head of the Russell Family was extremely talented. He stood at the peak of the strong with only his own strength, but..."

"Now that Titan City has been destroyed and the family tree has been lost, I can only pass on the information above."
"As for the details, you have to decide for yourself. These were all told to me by your father at the end of the battle in Titan City."
Copperfield was silent for a moment before he spoke.
"Where exactly is the altar located in the Crobal Mountains?"
Terrence was startled. He knew that Copperfield had already made up his mind, so he replied.
"Once we reach the vicinity of the mountains, we can follow the soul's guidance to reach it."
After a moment of silence, Terrence spoke.
"Young master, follow me."
Copperfield looked at Terrence. Seeing the serious expression on Terrence's face, he had a vague feeling that he would go to an important place.
The two of them did not say much. They simply brought some water and food and walked out of Cavendish town.
After walking for a while, Copperfield suddenly felt that the scenery around him was slowly overlapping with his memories.
Unknowingly, he and Terrence had arrived at the periphery of Titan City!
Although there was still a long way to go from the ruins of Titan City.
But the surrounding scenery made Copperfield feel extremely familiar.
Copperfield vaguely knew the purpose of Terrence's trip.
They had arrived at the border of Titan City.
Rows of tombstones were neatly arranged on this small hill, looking at Titan City in the distance.
It seemed that the heroic spirits of the past were still silently guarding the border of this small southern border.
The tombstone was very simple. There was only a cross made of twigs stuck on a pile of dirt.
At this moment when the sun was setting, there was actually an endless sense of unyielding sorrow.
Copperfield was attracted by one of the tombstones.
He was stunned on the spot. After a long time, a line of hot tears slowly flowed down his face and dripped onto the dry land in front of him.
The tombstone was placed at the front of the cemetery, with its back facing the final resting place of the human race.
Right above the tombstone, there was a tattered cloak.
Three years had passed, but Copperfield still recognized at a glance that this cloak belonged to his father.
"This is your father's cenotaph."
Terrence's slightly quiet voice sounded behind Copperfield.
"That year, after the magical beast tide receded, I returned to Titan City alone."
"These graves, all the soldiers who could leave behind their remains, all rested here."
In the end, only a few hundred graves were left behind by the millions of soldiers of that year, and Terrence alone buried them here.
Copperfield's heart trembled slightly.
He summoned his own vessel soul and placed it by his mouth.
After a long time, a sad melody filled the small hill.
Copperfield finally remembered why his father had taught him how to play this instrument.
It turned out that the harmonica was also his father's soul.
On the hill, two figures stood there.
The sad sound of harmonica echoed continuously.
The song ended.
Copperfield looked into the distance. That was the habitat of the magical beasts, the Crobal Mountains.
"What if you can't come back after going?" Terrance asked.
"Then I won't come back!" Copperfield replied.
Terrance did not speak anymore. He just raised his hand and took out something from the soul ring on his finger and handed it to Copperfield.
Copperfield's hands sank. In his eyes, it was his father's sword -- a broad two-handed sword.
The body of the sword was dark red, and it was called Soul Slayer.
Along with Soul Slayer was the soul ring that Terrence had always carried with him.
There was no need to say more.
Copperfield tied the broadsword behind him and walked toward the distant Crobal Mountains.
The young man's figure slowly disappeared into the darkness, as if he was gradually swallowed by the darkness.
Terrence watched for a long time, then turned and left, but he did not seem to be heading back to Cavendish town.
