Chapter 15: You Can't Be Depressed
Two days later, Aphlorea, who had been commissioned by the Elven King to come to the Norvi Kingdom as an ambassador, arrived on the shore, and when she got off the ship, she already knew what was going on by looking at Roach's face. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Before she set off, she had already received the news that Odin was critically ill, and since that time he has been uneasy, the warriors of the Golden Hall level have developed considerable resistance to the infestation of foreign poisons, what kind of poison can actually cause Odin to suffer so much damage, if so, then can it be cured?
Now, when her body stood on the continent of Yamon, looking at Luo Qi's slightly pale and haggard face in front of her, she already understood that the purpose of her coming here was no longer possible.
"Luo Qi, I'm here." Holding Luo Qi's cheeks with both hands, Aphrorea said softly, "What's the matter, aren't you happy?" ”
"Mother." With his fists clenched, Luo Qi clenched his teeth and said, "Mother, father he ......"
"Your father wants you to be a strong man, he wants you to take his place and be a person who can take responsibility." Afloria said with a smile, although the smile was very sad, "So you can't let him down, sooner or later, you will want to be like your father, a man who stands up to the sky." ”
"Mother." Luo Qi's body trembled slightly, and suddenly sadness came to her, tears rolled down involuntarily, and she knelt in front of Aphrorea, gritting her teeth and choking.
"Don't cry, your father has always taught you when you were a child, tears are reserved for the weak, don't ......" Although she said this, Aphrorea was already a pear blossom with rain on her face, bent down, hugged Luo Qi tightly, and cried in a low voice.
Looking at Aphrorea and Luo Qi, standing aside, and coming with Luo Qi to greet Aphrorea's Scarlet, Liuli, Selena and the others couldn't help choking, and Lingye stood there expressionless.
"Father's funeral is scheduled in three days." Back in Odin's mansion, Luo Qi said slowly, "It will be buried in the royal tomb according to the king's wishes, and it will be on a par with the royal family." ”
Saying that, Luo Qi raised his head and looked at his mother: "Mother, do you want to bring your father back, buried in your hometown, or ......?"
"If your father meant to be buried here, that's okay." Aphrorea smiled slightly, her face was slightly pale and said, "Here, you will also stay in the imperial capital in the future, so that you can accompany your father." ”
"Okay." Luo Qi nodded, was silent for a long time, and then said, "I'm sorry, mother, I didn't protect my father until now, and I didn't let you see your father for the last time...... It's all my fault......"
"Why blame yourself." Aphrorea shook her head, "At that time, when I was away from your father, there was a prophet who said that I would never live to see my husband and son again in this life, and I thought it was true...... But it's okay for now, at least I still have you, don't I? Your father's death can only be said to be fate. ”
"Mom!" At that moment, the door to the room opened, and a tearful Tini ran in and threw herself into Aphreya's arms.
"Mother, I'll leave first." Luo Qi stood up and spoke, then walked out and closed the door.
"Luo Qi ......" When Luo Qi had just left the room, Liuli was standing outside the door, looking at Luo Qi with a worried face.
"You've been standing here, thank you." Luo Qi sighed and smiled slightly, "Thank you for taking care of Tini during my absence. ”
"I didn't do anything, Scarlet was taking care of her." Liuli hurriedly waved his hand.
"But...... Although I know it's useless to say that now, and there's no way to make you happy...... But Luo Qi, you can't be depressed, you know? Field Marshal Allen Delle was also seriously wounded in the retreat, and now there is a vacancy for our country to be the commander-in-chief, and if this continues, maybe we will really lose this war...... Ah, I'm sorry Roach, I should have comforted you. Ruri held her head and looked flustered at the moment.
"I understand, Ruri." Luo Qi stepped forward, grabbed Liuli's shoulders with both hands and said, "It's okay, what you said is to get me back motivated, thank you very much, it's more effective than any words of comfort." ”
"Yes...... Is it? Ruri said cautiously.
"Still." Luo Qi let go of his hands, and then said, "I still need to rest for a while, and now I can't go to the battlefield." ”
With that, Luo Qi turned around and left slowly.
"Luo Qi ......" Liuli looked at Luo Qi's departing back, and couldn't help but feel sour in her heart, and hurriedly stretched out her hand to wipe away the tears that were about to gush out of her eyes.
"It's the first time I've seen him hit so hard." At this time, Scarlet walked over, her eyes lowered, and her eyes were full of gloom, "He was always helping us when we were hit before, but now that he is injured, we can't do anything. ”
"Yes...... Oh, yes. Ruri lowered her head, "We can't help with this kind of thing." ”
"Although we can't be so sad, otherwise it won't be good for Luo Qi to see it, but ......" Scarlet Ni shook her head, "In this situation, let me make a strong smile, I really can't do it......"
"Yes...... Oh, yes. Liuli Mu said solemnly, like a puppet.
"Let's go, Ruri." Scarlet Ni stretched out her hand and grabbed Liuli's slightly cold hand, "Let's let him, think about it alone, I'm sure Luo Qi will know what to do." ”
Ruri turned her head and looked at Scarlet, nodded after a long time and said, "Well, we have to believe him." ”
After Liuli and Scarlet left, around the corner, Luo Qi was standing against the wall, staring blankly to the side, as if unconscious.
He heard the words of Ruri and Scarlet, and he understood that they were all worried about him, and wanted to behave naturally in front of him, without leaking out their sadness, but he couldn't do it.
Because the sorrow was passed on to them by herself.
Sighing softly, Luo Qi clenched his fists, he understood that it was useless for him to be sad here, what he had to do was to avenge his father and fight those demons, but now, he had no fighting spirit, and he couldn't even lift the red sword.
How to fight?
At this moment, a warm little hand suddenly reached over, grabbed Luo Qi's hand, and held it tightly.
Rocky turned his head and saw Selena standing side by side with him, her eyes looking ahead, as if thinking about something.
"Selena......" Luo Qi opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry I made you worry. ”
"It's kind of like when I was back." Selena said.
"What?" Rocky looked at Selena.
"It's a bit like when I left the Yamon Continent at that time, because at that time my mother told me that we would never see each other again, so I kept crying, crying every day, and I didn't even eat." Selena whispered, "Because the person who was supposed to be with me all the time suddenly said that there was no and there was no more, I really wanted to escape from the house at that time, but it was too young and there was no way." ”
"Later, when I grew up, I always remembered what my mother said when I was a child, saying that we would never see each other again, I still didn't believe it, I didn't believe why I would let you leave, so I started an adventure, and I heard that as long as I became the best adventure party in the kingdom, I could come to the human continent, and I have been working hard for it." As she spoke, Selena turned her head to look at Luo Qi and smiled, "Although it hasn't been successful, my ultimate goal has been achieved, and I'm very happy." ”
"Selena ......"
"I'm sorry to tell you this, although I think you must be much sadder than me at this time, after all, I was a child at that time, and at most I thought I had just lost a playmate." Selena said with a smile, then grabbed Luo Qi's hand with both hands and said, "But Luo Qi, you must not lose your fighting spirit, you must not forget your will, your will to do something, you must understand, you are a hero, Uncle Odin, he also expects you to become a hero, although I know that you must have pressure under the gaze of so many people, but this is also the pressure that ordinary people will definitely not get, Luo Qi, you must not be depressed." ”
After saying that, Selena took two steps back and said with a smile: "I have to leave quickly, otherwise I won't be able to stand it if you scold me for comforting you." ”
Looking at Selena's back as she walked away quickly, Luo Qi was silent for a moment, then sighed slightly, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.
"Thank you, Serena."
