Chapter 23 - Chapter 23: Cautious Gray Heart Brother

"Once you fall deep into it~ you cannot escape~, since you want to have fun~ welcome to~ Gokuraku Jodo..."

Accompanied by the music from the speakers, the Fire Keeper performed a shameful dance with butterfly steps. At this moment, she was completely immersed in the dance, as it was the only way she could ignore the eyes watching her from all around.

After all, there was more than one person in the Firelink Shrine.

Xia Yu had a speaker playing music by his side. This was a high-tech speaker he had asked AI Xia Yu to make; it was waterproof, fireproof, shockproof, and the battery could last for years.

"Not bad at all. Watching the Fire Keeper dance to Gokuraku Jodo is truly a beautiful thing."

Xia Yu watched the dancing Fire Keeper with delight, holding a small camcorder in his hand.

To get the Fire Keeper to learn this dance, he had shamelessly performed it himself many times. Even the Cautious Gray Heart Brother, Hawkwood, was stunned by him, to the point where he didn't even know how to approach him to spread his usual negativity.

He had likely never seen such a bizarre and unusual Ashen One before.

"Dancing lightly~ forgetting time, tonight~ ahh~ blooming fervently together, tonight blooming to our hearts' content with you~"

As the song reached its end, the Fire Keeper stopped her dance and bowed.

Xia Yu put down the camcorder and clapped with satisfaction. However, another person's applause sounded beside him.

Turning his head, he saw a female knight wearing a white silk kerchief and ornate, pure white armor. She sat casually on a higher ledge, applauding the Fire Keeper for finishing her dance.

Once she noticed Xia Yu's gaze, she didn't show any friendliness, but instead spoke with a somewhat cold and distant tone.

"Oh... you are also an Unkindled. I am Sirris of the Sunless Realm, a former servant of the Gods."

"We each carry our own burdens, and missions make one lonely. I'm afraid it's best we don't get involved with each other. May the moon's protection guide your journey."

After speaking, Sirris didn't wait for Xia Yu's answer. A purple light glowed on her body, and she vanished from before Xia Yu's eyes.

"That was Miss Sirris," the Fire Keeper walked over, explaining to the Ashen One who seemed not to understand. "She is a lone knight. Although she seems a bit cold, she is actually a good person."

"Ah, I know."

Xia Yu stared at the spot where Sirris had left. This female knight would swear fealty to him in the later stages of the game, becoming his knight, only to meet her tragic end in the end.

Miyazaki, you and I are irreconcilable!

"What's wrong, Ashen One?" Noticing Xia Yu's slightly somber mood, the Fire Keeper asked with concern.

"It's nothing." Xia Yu shook his head and looked away.

I will change that tragic end of yours, because you are my knight.

"Come, let's see how you danced." Xia Yu suddenly picked up the camcorder with a grin and pulled the Fire Keeper to sit beside him. Despite her embarrassment, he pressed the playback button.

Although the Fire Keeper had lost her eyes, it didn't mean she had no way of observing the outside world. Watching her own dancing figure in the black box, she felt a different emotion besides shame.

In any case, after Xia Yu's arrival, this lifeless Shrine finally gained a bit of cheerful vitality... dark souls i world, Undead Burg, Hellkite Bridge.

Undead Xia Yu was planning to test his newly improved constitution here, but he didn't expect to meet someone who was logically expected but still surprising.

"Ah, hello there. You don't look like a Hollow."

The speaker was a burly man of medium height, wearing a bucket-like iron helmet with a prominent red feather stuck in it.

Of course, the most striking feature was the bold sun emblem on his chest; even the grass-green wool shawl over his upper body wasn't as eye-catching.

Looking at this familiar figure, Undead Xia Yu's heart stirred. He had finally met him—the radiant man, the sun in the hearts of countless Undead.

"That's right. I am Xia Yu of the Northern Undead Asylum, an Undead who currently has no faith."

"Is that so?" The man in the bucket helmet paused, then laughed heartily.

"Hahaha, I am Solaire of Astora, a follower of the God of Sunlight." While introducing himself, Solaire looked towards the distant sun. "Now that I am an Undead, I have come to this great land, the birthplace of King Gwyn, to find my very own sun."

"The sun is a wondrous celestial body, like a magnificent father. If only I could become as incandescent as it."

Actually, you've already become the sun that lights up others, Brother Solaire.

Looking at Solaire, Xia Yu thought back to the time he played dark souls i. This was the man who had always helped him, but the Sun Knight's end was destined to be a tragedy, for the sun he believed in had long since set.

Again, Miyazaki, you and I are irreconcilable!

"Do you find it strange?" Although Solaire didn't turn around, he mocked himself. "Well, indeed, there's no need to hide your reaction, ahahaha..."

"By the way, if you have the time, I have a proposal. It seems to me that our fates are intertwined. We are both Undead, both were imprisoned in the Asylum, and now we have both made it here, to this land crawling with Hollows. Could this be a mere coincidence?"

Well... it actually is just a coincidence. Despite thinking this, Xia Yu continued to listen in silence.

"I think not!"

"I'm not sure of your plans, but I sense a curious quality about you. So, what do you say? Shall we help each other on this lonely journey?"

"Hmm... of course."

Xia Yu agreed readily. After all, who could refuse a Sun Knight who loves helping others? Praise the Sun!

Moreover, he wanted to change Solaire's tragic end, so how could he not interact with him? This Sun Knight shouldn't die in such a manner.

Although Solaire couldn't find his own sun, he had long since become the sun in the hearts of others.

"Oh, good, that's wonderful! I am truly glad." Hearing Xia Yu accept his proposal, Solaire's tone sounded very happy.

"Then, take this." As he spoke, Solaire took out a White Sign Soapstone from his pouch. "This strange land is filled with strange creatures, and time here is convoluted. Using this will allow us to appear in each other's worlds as phantoms and help one another."

Taking the White Sign Soapstone from Solaire, Xia Yu looked at the still-chattering knight and couldn't help but smile. This knight was truly straightforward.

Seeing Solaire still explaining earnestly, Xia Yu suddenly felt like teasing this serious knight.

He suddenly raised both hands with palms facing outward in an embracing gesture and said in a serious, earnest voice, "Praise the Sun!"

In the next moment, the chattering Solaire stopped abruptly and devoutly performed the Praise the Sun gesture, though his form was even more perfect than Xia Yu's.

"Praise the Sun!"
