Chapter 134: Gaiden-Andres's Past (3)
The sword was like a shadow, glowing with blood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
That's the blood of a maiden!
Andres glared at each other, the blood reflected in his eyes, radiating a deep light.
When the black-robed man saw the light, his expression froze, and his sword-wielding hand suddenly paused.
He didn't even have time to be surprised, his eyes were already lifeless.
The anger in Andrés' eyes seemed to burn him to ashes, causing his body to begin to disintegrate, turning into powder in an instant, scattered to the ground along with the black robe and long sword.
Everything happened in an instant, and he didn't even feel his own death.
Seeing the black-robed man disappear, Andrés' eyes were bloody, and he turned to look at the girl.
"Sister......" Andrés looked at the girl who had been soaked in blood on his chest, blood and tears were left, and then his eyes were full of luster and he passed out.
"Andres ......" The girl hugged him desperately, tears welling up.
She could feel her life flowing with blood, and the darkness was covering not only the sky, but also her eyes.
She collapsed weakly by the lake, her breath waning, and she looked up at the stars in the night.
"God ......," she wept bitterly, tears and blood dripping into the lake, "please, can you give me a little more time?" A little more time......"
Her voice was so weak that it was drowned out by the sound of flowing water.
God did not answer her, or rather, there was no God who could answer her.
All her hopes are destined to die in darkness.
She turned to look at Andres to take one last look at him, but found that her vision was too blurred to make out his face.
The insatiable tiredness hit her, and she almost lost all the strength to breathe.
At the last moment of her life, she made a decision.
With all her strength, she climbed to the riverbank, leaving a long trail of blood.
Then, she rolled over and fell into the river.
She didn't want Andres to see her lifeless body, she wanted to give Andrés a hope.
A hope that she had gone to Elsis, to the fairytale home they had conceived for countless nights.
She sank to the surface of the water and saw the sparkling waves, in the haze, like thousands of stars twinkling.
Is that the view of the night sky of Elsis? Can Andrés see it?
Will she be able to follow the flowing water to the place of her dreams?
It was the last thought of her life.
And then there is eternal darkness.

When Andrés woke up, it was early in the morning.
It was dark and there was no sunlight to be seen.
When he opened his blood-colored eyes, he saw a bloodstain.
"Sister!?" Andrés got up suddenly, but he couldn't find the girl, only the shocking bloodstain that proved everything that had happened here.
"Sister!" Andrés cried and threw himself down the bloodstains to the riverbank, hoping that the girl's figure would be there, but all his hopes were vain.
He wept bitterly by the river until he dried up his tears and fainted again.
When he woke up again, I don't know how much time had passed, and the sky began to rain lightly, dripping with a bone-chilling coolness.
Andrés didn't cry anymore, he got up expressionlessly, his eyes were empty, as if he had lost the luster of life.
At this moment, he felt that he had lost all the precious things in his life.
"Sister......" He looked into the distance where the river flowed, and his footsteps moved, slowly walking in the direction of the current.
He was going to Elsis, to the place he had agreed with her.
Will she be waiting for him there? Despite knowing that it was impossible, Andrés still had such hopes.
Because without such hope, he could not take another step.
Anyway, he also wants to go to the place his sister has always dreamed of!
The sun and the moon are like shuttles, the time is like flowing water, he can't count how many days and nights he has walked, when he is thirsty, he picks up the river water and takes a sip, when he is hungry, he digs up the grass roots on the side of the road and chews it, and when he can't walk, he sits down and rests on the spot.
If it weren't for his natural magic support, I'm afraid I would have starved to death on the road.
And ordinary people probably wouldn't have expected that a little boy who was only ten years old actually crossed half of Garand's province, passed through half of the lion kingdom, and followed the river, like an ascetic, step by step to Elsis.
The mountains stretch out, the flowers are clustered, and the cozy rustic cottages are scattered in every corner of Elsis, like stars dotting the night sky, revealing the beauty of dust.
When Andrés arrived in this fairytale wonderland, he didn't feel the slightest excitement in his heart.
Because his dreams were shattered!
On that difficult road, he had imagined countless times that when he came to Elsis, the maiden would be here waiting for him, waiting for him to build the home he had dreamed of for countless days and nights.
It was because of this fantasy that he was able to get here.
Andres's young body stood on the side of the road, his nose sour, and tears dripping down his face.
He hadn't shed a tear for a long time, and on the road, no matter how difficult it was, he didn't shed a tear.
But now, at last, he could not bear it any longer, and fell to his knees, and a terrible cry resounded through the night sky, and tears wet his already tattered clothes with endless bitterness and pain.
"What's wrong with you?" At that moment, a soft voice reached Andrés' ear porch.
Andrés looked up with teary eyes, but saw a kind middle-aged man with a pity smile on his face, and said to him, "Why are you crying here?" ”
"You...... Have you ever met my sister? Andrés sobbed.
"Your sister?" The middle-aged man rolled his eyes lightly and said, "There doesn't seem to be any outsiders in Issis lately. ”
"Didn't you?" When Andrés heard this, his eyes were full of despair, "No......"
He sobbed, his gaze drifting.
For him, it's all over.
When the man saw Andres's eyes, his expression changed sharply, and his heart was inexplicably shaken.
He had never seen a person's eyes in such despair, as if he could feel the heart of the little boy in front of him gradually dying.
A ripple suddenly appeared in his eyes, swinging into Andrés's eyes and spreading into the depths of Andrés's soul.
Andrés didn't notice anything, turned around, staggered, and slowly walked away.
He had no intention of staying in Issis, as there was no one he was looking for.
Where there is no place for his sister, there is no fairy tale.
"Wait." Just as Andrés was about to leave, the middle-aged man suddenly stopped him.
Andreston stopped and turned to look at him, his eyes still empty.
"Do you want to find your sister?" The middle-aged man said.
"Can you help me find my sister?" In Andrés' eyes, a little flame of hope was lit with difficulty.
