Chapter 82 This is the duty of the brave
Soon after, the Herman Empire received a shocking news that Mary the Brave had successfully assassinated the Demon Emperor Victor and brought back the Demon Emperor's head!
But the cost of this victory was very heavy, that is, the future heir of the empire, Prince Winder, was tragically killed in the assassination attempt.
The emperor of the Herman Empire, Rhine, after hearing the news, made people feel ten years old all of a sudden.
However, the death of the Demon Emperor Victor represents the collapse of the Demon Empire, so for the Herman Empire, there will be no need to worry about the threat of the Demon Race for a long time to come.
This is an immortal achievement!
Therefore, after the grief, Emperor Rhine decided to greet the brave Mary, who held the head of the Demon Emperor, with the courtesy of treating VIPs, to Lordan, the capital of the Herman Empire.
On that day, in celebration of the arrival of the new era, bells rang throughout the city.
Mary, dressed in a black cloak covering her entire body, walked at the front, holding a black square box in her hand, which was said to contain the head of the Demon Emperor.
The two people walking behind Mary were Wang Zhiran and Gui, who, like Mary, covered their bodies with black cloaks, and followed Mary to the palace hall where Emperor Rhine was located under the guidance of the guide.
Along the way, Mary the Brave was welcomed by countless people, and even the sky was sprinkled with beautiful flower petals.
Mary looked up at the petals fluttering in the sky, then reached out her right hand and grabbed one petal, looked at it, pinched it vigorously, and threw it away.
Soon, the brave man and his party came to the palace hall.
When the guards opened the gates of the palace, the brave and his party met the emperor sitting on the throne, wearing a crown and a gown.
At this time, Emperor Rhine's face still had tear stains, but he still stood up, motioned for the brave and others to be excused, and then personally stepped forward to greet everyone.
Mary also held the black square box in both hands and walked towards Emperor Rhine, her face showing a gritty that she had never seen before.
"Your Majesty, inside this box is the head. ”
As she spoke, Mary came to Emperor Rhine and opened the box in front of him.
Seeing the head in the box, Emperor Rhine exclaimed in surprise:
"Oh no!"
At this time, Mary let go of her hands and grabbed the old emperor, the box fell to the ground, and the head rolled out of it, it was not the head of the Horn Emperor, but the head of a human, it was Prince Wende.
Seeing Mary's move, the surrounding guards wanted to rush up to protect them, but before they could make any moves, an invisible force spread to the whole audience, and all the guards fell on the spot.
That's Katsura making a move.
"Why, brave man," Emperor Rhine looked at Mary with tears in his eyes, and said, "Wende is your lover, why did you kill him, why did you rebel against humanity?"
Mary didn't speak, still with a straight face, and then with a wave of her big sword in her right hand, she stabbed into the old emperor's body without hesitation.
Blood stained the emperor's gown, and as the old emperor took his last breath, the crown on his head fell to the ground.
Now, the crown prince Wende is dead, the emperor Rhine is also dead, and since the old emperor has no other heirs, all the direct members of the royal family of the Herman Empire are dead, and the empire exists in name only.
It's over.
Wang Zhiran walked behind Mary, who was standing still, and said slowly: "Mary, since you killed Wende with your own hands that day, you have been like a different person. I know you're trying hard to endure the torment in your heart. And now, Emperor Rhine is dead, so you don't have to endure it, cry out, only cry out, you will become better. ”
Mary was silent for a moment, and finally turned around and threw herself into Wang Zhiran's arms, crying loudly.
On that day, Mary kills Winder with a sword after kissing her goodbye to Wind, as Mary has made a choice to help the Horned unify the world.
For Mary, this choice was extremely painful, because it meant that she would lose her lover forever.
But this choice is the right one for the world, because the Horn Emperor Victor will lead the world to a new era, the Cosmic Age.
Mary made this choice because:
"The brave is the existence that guards the world, and the world here refers to the whole world, not a certain race or force in this world, which is the duty of the brave. ”
Mary, who threw herself in Wang Zhiran's arms, choked up and said: "Why is this happening, why is it that I am made to be a brave man, why is it that I am made such a painful choice, why?"
This is not a question that Wang Zhiran can answer, and all Wang Zhiran can do is to hug Mary tightly and comfort her.
"Brother Wang, you once asked me if I felt like killing someone, and I said at that time that I didn't feel it, and those villains deserve to die. But in retrospect, I realized how stupid I was. At that time, I was just immersed in the joy of gaining power, and I didn't even think about the cost and responsibility of this power. ”
Now, when I understand all this, I realize how precious life is. These days, as soon as I close my eyes, I will see Brother Wende's surprised face before he dies, and I feel extremely painful.
Just behind Wang Zhiran and Mary, Gui also watched the two of them hug each other tightly, and his heart was also extremely complicated.
In fact, love is also divided into emotional love and rational love.
Sensual love, emphasizing the first feeling, such as seeing handsome guys and beauties, will instinctively have a good feeling, and then produce love. So the relationship between Mary and Wende is actually sensual love.
However, this is not the case with rational love.
Because rational love is not about appearance, but on the heart, such as people who can be by your side no matter what happens, never leave you, and can enlighten you and guide you!
So Gui knew that although Mary herself was not aware of it, the rationality in her heart and the person she loved were actually Wang Zhiran, who had been guiding her.
That's why Gui instinctively felt the threat and wanted to stop between Mary and Wang Zhiran.
However, now, seeing Mary holding Wang Zhiran and crying from the bottom of her heart, Gui did not forcibly pull her away, but just watched silently from the side. Because Gui understands that Mary now needs comfort and support.
After a while, maybe I felt Mary tired of crying, or maybe I felt the eyes from Gui behind her. Wang Zhiran let go of Mary and let her sit on the ground.
Then, Wang Zhiran shouted at the empty hall: "The will of the world Mimira came out for me, we have completed what you requested!"
"I've always been here," Mimira's figure appeared in front of everyone, as if she were there, "here to watch you act." Now, the chosen brave man has finally completed her duty. ”
With the appearance of Mimira, the will of the world, Mary suddenly became excited, only to see her break free from Wang Zhiran's arms and yell at Mimira:
"Why me, why did you choose me to be a brave man! I am obviously an earthling, and I shouldn't have joined the Milak world at all! You are the will of the world, why don't you guide the future of this world yourself, or choose a brave man in this world, can't you? You like to watch others suffer so much!"
Mimira looked at Mary and said slowly, "Mary, you know what. I am the will of the world in this world, and all life in this world is conceived by me. Whether it's the horns, the humans, or any other race, they're like children to me. ”
"However, you should be aware that just as sooner or later people will grow from innocence to maturity, children will one day grow up and be separated from their mother's arms. So what would a mother of mine think?"
Mimira's words silenced Mary. But Mimira wasn't done yet.
"Do you know how complicated my heart was when I found out that the Horned Emperor Victor had the idea of unifying the world and entering the universe! On the one hand, I was happy that the children had finally grown up, but on the other hand, I was sad that the children were about to leave my arms. ”
So I thought about the future of this world. I knew it wasn't that easy to change the world, so I arranged for the Horn Emperor Victor to be helped. ”
Hearing this, Wang Zhiran blurted out: "The helper you said is a black warrior! No wonder he is so powerful that he can actually compete with the brave." ”
"That's right," Mimira nodded, and continued, "But as I said before, my feelings are very complicated, and the future of the world cannot be decided so easily. ”
"The authorities are obsessed with bystanders," Wang Zhiran looked at Mimira and said, "That's why you thought that you want to find someone from another world to be a brave man." Because people in the other world will be more likely to see reality objectively and not be swayed by the positions of all parties in this world. ”
"So I reached out to my good friend, Earth Will You God," Mimira said, "asking him to help me choose a suitable person." ”
Mary said, "So you chose me." ”
Mimira said, "Yes, Plum Pattern, oh, I should call you Mary now." Did you know that even the Earth Will God thinks you are the most suitable person? Because you are very young, your mind is very innocent and kind, and you can instinctively feel everything around you with your heart, but at the same time you are rational enough not to be easily influenced by emotions to make reasonable judgments. ”
Mary was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "I see, so you have long known that I will kill Brother Winder, kill the Human Emperor Rhine, and help the Horn Emperor realize the path of the universe." ”
Mimira shook her head and said, "Mary, it's not absolute when you say that. After all, from my point of view, whether you kill the Horn Emperor Victor to maintain the status quo in this world, or help the Horn Emperor Victor realize the path of the universe, it is an acceptable result. It's just that in the end, you obeyed reason and sacrificed emotion, so you created the current ending. ”
"Anyway, now it's all over. Mary, as for the strength of your bravery, I will give it to you as a gift. And I won't continue to interfere with the teleportation circle, so you can go home. ”
Hearing this, Mary nodded and said, "Very well, I don't want to stay here anymore." After speaking, Mary looked back at Wang Zhiran.
However, Mimira said something at this time that attracted everyone's attention.
"Don't you rush to leave, don't you want to see the arrival of a new era in this world? And although Mary's work as a brave man has been completed, Wang Zhiran, your work as a special worker has not yet been completed!"
"Huh!"
