Chapter 208: What I Care About
Hearing this, the master couldn't help laughing: "Silly boy, you are still so dead-eyed, how many heroes and heroes in this world are good and evil, ancient and modern, strange people and strange people can't tell clearly, half of your children think they can figure it out?" For you now, it's better to be true to your heart and do things that you won't regret."
"Something you won't regret?"
"That's right, you close your eyes first, put aside the mess, some don't, and think about what you care about the most, what you don't want to lose the most, and who is the person you remember the most?"
"Oh." At first, my mind was very disturbed, and all kinds of chaotic thoughts flashed in my mind, but gradually everything calmed down, and finally what came to my mind was a beautiful face.
"Scarlett..."
"Yo, it's still a girl's name, it seems that you kid is finally enlightened."
"Master, you..."
"Don't open your eyes, keep going..."
I glanced at the master helplessly and continued to reflect on it.
"It's not just Scarlett, but also Azi, Ellie, Antonla, Maria... I really don't worry about everyone, I don't know what happened to them..."
"Very well, go on, what do you most want to do now?"
"Find them!"
"What about after you find them?"
"Make sure they're safe..."
"Is that enough?"
“... No, that's not enough, I also have to stop "that guy", prevent the Demon King from being completely resurrected, and stop the end from coming!"
"Is this really your own will?"
"Yes, this is what I really think in my heart, it has nothing to do with others, I don't want to see the world destroyed, and I don't want to see those innocent people hurt, it has nothing to do with my identity, it has nothing to do with whether others agree with me or not, this is the truest thought in my own heart!"
"In that case, what are you doing here!?" As he spoke, the master suddenly grabbed me by the collar and threw me out with a back span, and before I could react, my whole body was transferred into the small river on the side.
"Master, you..." I just wanted to speak, suddenly a mouthful of river water went directly into my mouth, choking me for a while, I tried to swim up, but for some reason the limbs were not strong, I just kept sinking, through the picture I saw the master standing quietly on the shore, waved at me, as if to say goodbye, his lips moved, as if to say something, but I didn't hear clearly, gradually I was getting farther and farther away from the water, the image of the master gradually became blurred, and finally disappeared.
I don't know how long it has been, I just feel that I have been sinking, obviously it looks like an inconspicuous river, but at the moment it seems to be bottomless, gradually I feel that my consciousness is beginning to blur again, out of instinct I beat my spirit to prevent myself from fainting, for fear that this time I will never wake up again, but my eyelids still sink uncontrollably, and finally I fell into a coma again in front of my eyes.
In a trance, I felt as if I had returned to the Wizard's Tower, which had become a ruin at some point, I felt that my body was very light, as if floating in mid-air, and I looked down at the princess and the others covered in blood, as if they were fighting someone, they looked quite embarrassed, Tina and Xiaojia were already lying motionless in a pool of blood, and I didn't know whether they were alive or dead, Maria and Ruiz also seemed to be seriously injured, and it was difficult to even stand up, only the princess and Antonla, who had already shown her true appearance, were still standing proudly, and around them are full of all kinds of demons and wizards, it looks like there are thousands of people, and on the other side stands an old man in a white robe, looking sixty years old, full of white hair combed meticulously, perhaps out of excitement, the wrinkled face flashed at the moment a blush that does not match the age, strictly speaking, it is not an ugly face, and even thought that it must have been a handsome figure when he was young, but at this moment it looked a little hideous and distorted, especially the eyes that flashed with red light, yes, black eyes and blood pupils, The symbol of the identity of the demon king, no need to ask, this is the true face of "that guy", the chief elder of the wizarding guild today - Saruman.
"Stop it, we must not let the old guy and Kane become one!" In a trance, I heard Antonla's voice, which was deep and deep in the form of a dragon, solemn like an emperor.
"It's useless, this is the will of the master, how can you and other mortals stop it!" Saruman said loudly, perhaps due to excitement, its original gentle and humble tone suddenly became a little hysterical, and more importantly, I heard another voice in it that I had not seen for a long time - the Demon King!
"Kane, can you hear me!?" At this time, I suddenly heard Scarlett shouting loudly, and I suddenly felt my heart tighten.
"Stinky boy, if you want to hear it, wake me up quickly, you are needed here!"
"It's useless, that one named Roger. Kane's soul no longer exists in this world, but don't be sad, I'll send you to him soon!" Saruman laughed wildly, completely lacking the grace and calmness of before, if it had maintained a bit of its human appearance when talking to me before, then it has become a complete demon king at this moment.
"Hehe, you really don't know him..."In the face of Saruman's clamour, the princess did not fear, did not panic, but instead held a mocking sneer.
"What did you say?" Saruman wondered, with a hint of scornful anger in his tone.
"Kane's kid has a lot of problems, he always likes to be self-righteous, but he is a mother-in-law when he does things, he likes to hide everything in his heart, he doesn't say it, and he always thinks that he is doing good for others, what a big fool." Although the princess's mouth was counting me, her tone was surprisingly warm, and she couldn't help but have a sweet smile on her face, and I couldn't help but feel a heat in my heart when I saw this scene.
At this time, I only heard the princess's words and said, "But... is such a guy, but he will never leave any partner, sometimes he will be afraid, will retreat, but in the face of danger he will always stand in the front row, no matter how cruel fate is to him, how unfriendly the world is to him, but he still loves the world, and wants to save the world at all costs... So no matter what kind of enemies you face or what kind of predicament you encounter, I firmly believe that that guy will never be easily defeated, even if you are a demon king, you will never be able to do it!"
I can't describe how I felt at the time, but is there anything more exciting in the world than being so trusted by someone I love? If I had been able to cry at that time, I believe I would have burst into tears, for it was the first time since the death of my master that I felt so truly that I was not alone.
"What nonsense, even a small human dares to question my abilities!? Alright, I'll send you to reunite with that big idiot!" Obviously, not everyone will be moved by the princess's confession, such as the demon king, who felt ignored and couldn't help but be furious, and suddenly saw a red beam of light heading straight towards the princess.
"Be careful!" The other people present all exclaimed when they saw this, and Anton flew to the rescue, but unfortunately it was too late, and what about the princess? She didn't hide or run, but stood there quietly, her eyes flashing with determination, as if to declare to the Demon King that you could destroy me, but she didn't want me to give in.
"Think about what you care about the most, what you don't want to lose the most, and who is the person you remember the most?" At that moment, I finally understood the meaning of my master's words, and I also understood why I came back here, because there are still many things in this world that must be... It's up to me to do it!
"Boom!" There was a loud bang, dust and smoke everywhere, and almost everyone thought that the princess was finished, but when the smoke cleared, people were surprised to find that the princess was still standing there, and there was another person in front of her~
