Volume 2 Chapter 186 The Devil is in the World
When Thor woke up again, he felt a chill on his body.
He subconsciously turned his head to look and found himself lying in a cave.
The drowsy consciousness gradually revived, but the symptoms of the high fever had not completely subsided, and Thor tried to turn his somewhat chaotic consciousness and think carefully. This cave...... Well, it seems to have been here for the last month.
Yes, this cave is actually not far from Undercurrent Village.
It is said that once a pack of wild wolves lived here, and then once little Wilson was noisy to come and see, so he and Lucia and Martha and little Wilson snuck out of the village once.
But...... Why is he lying in this cave now? Thor was a little puzzled.
Immediately, the connection of memories came flooding back like a rolling tide, and Thor finally remembered that he was going to leave Undercurrent Village today. Afterward...... Later, it was the autumn foliage festival in the village, well, Lucia put on her new dress and danced, and then ......
As if suddenly aware of something, Thor turned his head to look directly above him, and then he saw Lucia.
At this time, Thor realized that he was not alone in this cave, but that he was resting on Lucia's lap, and from the frontal view of this upturned head, he could just see Lucia with her eyes closed and her head slightly down.
Lucia looked a little tired, as if she was too tired to fall asleep, but Thor knew she wasn't asleep. Because there was a trace of dried blood at the corner of her mouth, and she seemed to have been in this position for a while.
Obviously, Lucia ...... She's no longer in this world.
Thor finally knew why he was feeling cold, because he was pillowed on her lap, and Lucia was still wearing the knee-length skirt she wore when she danced today, but the skin on her legs had become cold.
And her cold hand was also on her chest, very close to her neck, as if she had carefully stroked her face not long ago, and finally the hand hung limply down to that position.
On top of that, Thor felt a wet cold beneath him.
It wasn't the coolness of the autumn wind that had poured into the cave, but the fact that Lucia's blood had gathered on the ground and soaked through her black coat.
Thor sat up lightly, as if he was afraid that the movement would be too loud and wake Lucia up.
Then he stood aside, long and silent in the darkness.
Thor was a little afraid to look at it, but he could see it very clearly, there were two penetrating wounds on Lucia's body, and there was a laceration on the back.
Gently picking Lucia up, Thor carefully laid her flat on the ground, waiting for her to stiffen when she didn't,...... It's not good to be buried.
Holding on to the wall and walking out of the cave, Thor walked a little shaky.
He knew that there might be a hellish sight waiting for him, but he had to take a look.
The distance was not too far, it was about the same as he remembered, and soon Thor was at the entrance of Undercurrent Village. None of the villagers who were usually responsible for guarding the security of the village saw it, and Thor took a deep breath, which was expected.
Except for the sound of the murmuring of water in the river outside the village, the whole small village was silent.
Strictly speaking, Thor doesn't believe in any hell, but he's clearly in it now.
He walked past the corpses of countless villagers, walked past the squares where tables and chairs were crooked and food was scattered all over the ground, and met those he didn't want to see here, but finally found them.
No one was spared, including the Brett family and the Luke family, including Martha and Wilson Jr. In addition...... There were the corpses of the villagers everywhere, and the whole small village ...... It seems to have died.
Someone's arm seemed to tremble in the distance, and Thor sprang up to pick him up and put his arms around his neck.
This is a young man in the village hunting party, a first-order professional. In the past nearly a month, Thor has gone out hunting with him a few times, talked a few times, and drank two glasses of wine.
“...... Ahem, a group of men in black...... I'm going to hand you over,...... But we don't, we are...... Well done!" the young man raised an arm to grasp Thor's hand tightly, and said a few words with the last of his strength, then vomited a large mouthful of blood, and tilted his head and stopped moving.
“...... Heh~uh! You're good. Thor held his hand tightly, and his whole body trembled.
The whole village was killed because of himself, and in order to protect himself, Thor seemed to see the villagers build walls with their lives, covering the seriously injured Lucia to leave with him.
At least in Saul's memory, they were some very nice people who gave themselves tolerance and acceptance, recognition and smiles.
And Brett and Luke, the two families, that kind of family-like warm atmosphere, that kind of warm and straightforward way of doing things.
They should have lived well, and Thor knew that he was now the only witness, just like Precia had done then, and it seemed that he was going to be burdened with hatred again.
Since then, Thor has been busy going back and forth between the cemetery and the village.
In the past, there was no cemetery in Undercurrent Village, and if someone died in the village, people close to them would just find a place to bury it, and it would be good to remember it for themselves, but now there is.
In terms of wrapping the body for burial, Thor felt that he was becoming more and more proficient and professional, anyway, he used to be a grave keeper, which was his job.
A large area of flat cemetery was repaired, and many grave pits of various sizes were dug.
Then Thor searched everywhere in the village, found every corpse he could find, and then carefully wrapped them one by one, and buried them one by one.
It was a grand and deserted mass funeral, and Saul was the only one who watched.
It took Thor three days to do this, and during these three days, the cold and pain and various negative curses came one after another, but Thor didn't seem to feel anything.
In addition to this, there are many verbose guys who also harass Thor from time to time.
"As I said, people like us will eventually face suffering, and those who end up with us will not escape their fate. Hughes stood to the side with his hands folded.
"As I said a long time ago, the scariest thing about life is not what you have experienced, but that you are still alive after you have seen it. "Evan this guy also popped up.
For a moment, the surroundings of Thor suddenly became a bit lively, and even Precia and Covill popped up.
But Thor didn't pay attention to them, just silently digging in the dirt.
"Life is like this, run around, find something to kill, and then lose a few important people by the way. Thor muttered softly as he toiled with his head down.
At the end of the day, Thor returned to the cave.
Lucia still slept quietly, as if she had never moved, and would never move again.
Looking down at the blood that had already congealed on the chest of his black coat, Thor seemed to see Lucia, who was seriously injured, and struggled to carry herself to this cave under the cover of the villagers, guarding herself until the last moment of her life.
Look at the shocking laceration on her back, she carried her back all the way...... How much does it hurt?
Thor crouched down and hugged her tightly, forehead against hers, rubbing his face against her cold cheeks.
Sometimes, you don't know how much someone will love you, or it's not that you don't know, you just don't believe it. You don't have to wait until one day she's suddenly gone for you to wake up. Oh, so she could do this for me.
Hugging tightly, Thor suddenly laughed out loud.
"Hehe, you're facing a fourth- or fifth-order dark cross! That's it...... You have the ability to run away!?You are really amazing!Little shiitake mushroom!hahahahaha~!"
Thor hugged Lucia tightly and kissed, shaking, laughing, and then his voice grew quieter and quieter, and finally he couldn't stop crying.
"Poof~" Crying and crying, Thor turned his head abruptly and sprayed a mouthful of fishy green blood on the wall.
Then he stood up and wiped his mouth, and with a gentle motion, he hugged Lucia sideways.
Arriving at the cemetery, Thor had already dug a pit with a shovel, and the Brett family was here. Then Thor carefully put Lucia in, trying not to disturb her peace, the movements were soft and focused, and somewhat solemn.
There are always some sorrows in this world that no one can understand, and I can only chew them silently by myself.
If you think about it, it's not the first time I've done this kind of thing, after all, I buried Precia and Shogues with my own hands before that...... , many people.
Some people say that the fall of the body is not real death, and that you will continue to live in someone's memory. It is also said that nothing in this world will really disappear as long as we remember it.
Thor himself sometimes feels conflicted, he obviously does not believe in gods and does not believe in the idea that people have souls, but he buries one soul after another with his own hands.
It is said that after doing something many times over and over again, people will gradually become numb and accustomed to it. In the past, Thor also thought that if he continued to work as a grave keeper, would he become numb one day?
Only now did he understand that he would never be numb in the face of death.
The earth on each grave was slapped with a shovel, and the project, which lasted three days, was finally completed. Thor gasped, silently pestle the handle of the shovel and looking into the dark distance, without much intense expression on his face.
In that direction, there is the largest main city in the South, Odrenza, and there is also the powerful Dark Cross Law Enforcement Team.
Thor watched silently, and suddenly spoke softly.
"You want a devil, and now you have. ”
