CHAPTER 41 MANIFESTATIONS
On the other hand, Christy also seemed to be in a low mood.
She hesitated as she stood in front of the brawl tavern's brilliant light sign.
A blonde woman in a red dress walked out and leaned against a pillar on one side. Seeing Christy, she teased, "Little girl, come and experience the life of a bad woman?" β
Christy shook her head, lowered her eyes, and replied, "Today...... What are the rewards in the fighting ring? β
The woman was surprised by what she said, but replied truthfully: "Brilliant Light Diamond, absolutely genuine." β
Christy nodded and walked in.
The Brilliant Light, about the size of an index finger and a thumb looped together, and weighs at least 5,000 carats, is a symbol of the Queen. But many years ago, the light was stolen, or rather, the king lost it.
Christy knew all too well about this, the real thing had been sold to the tavern by a traveler, and the one around Kra's neck was a replica of glass.
Step into the noisy tavern and come to the blood-stained arena. The champion of the previous edition, a *** with a long firearm, was on top, looking down on the people below.
When he saw the pink-haired girl on stage, he questioned his appearance: Is he so weak?
"Little girl, I don't hit children." "I'm not." "Little girl, you ......" "Don't talk nonsense, fight quickly."
The man gritted his teeth and threw the firearm over, which Christy took intact and threw out.
Out of nowhere, Christy pulled out a pistol and pressed it against the forehead of the man who rushed up: "You lost." β
β¦β¦
When Sicas came to inspect the Downtown, he saw the winner of the tavern fight change.
A closer look made him gasp: "Christy Cara?? β
So he resolutely walked in.
β¦β¦
Christy's little face was stained with blood.
Looking at the crazy woman on the stage, everyone in the audience looked at each other.
Until a voice sounded: "I want to challenge." β
It's Sicas.
Christy was visibly taken aback when she saw Sicas. Watching Sicas walk up the steps, she clenched her fists.
"Chrissy." Sikas stepped forward, "Let's go back." β
As if she hadn't heard, Christy unsheathed her sword.
Sikas did not have the title of the head of the Knights, and he immediately controlled her hand holding the knife: "Chrissy, what's wrong with you. β
Chrissy kicked him in the head with a backflip.
Sicas took a few steps back and let go of her. Christy suddenly flashed behind him and slashed his knight's sash open. The red silk floated to the ground, lifeless.
Sicas frowned, turned around Christie's waist and threw it out.
I wanted to throw her out, but her feet wrapped around her, so she was taken out too.
The two of them fell straight outside the tavern. The soldiers of the Order looked at the two of them and were stunned.
Sicas stood up first and drew his sword. Christy tried to subdue him when she turned around, but not only did she fail, but she was cut off most of her hair by Sicas. Now her hair is only as long as her ears.
Christy continued to press on Sicas. Sicas had no choice but to step back. Soon this stalemate continued to the river.
Sikas stood by the river, hoping for a chance to reverse. In his opinion, Christy will not make a move.
However, he was wrong.
Christy pulled out her gun and held it to his chest.
Shocked, Sikas raised his hands.
At night, Christy's short hair was blown by the wind. The eyes that should have been as pure as the sea reflected their own embarrassed shadow at this time.
What he didn't expect was that Christy knocked him unconscious with the handle ......of her gun and fell straight into the river.
"Captain!" And all the men of the Order gathered around. Christy didn't look back, and went straight back to the tavern to retrieve the Bright Star.
Under the starry sky, the girl held on to the pillar of Carat's room, panting, and a hint of bright red flowed from the corner of her mouth: "Mother, what should belong to you, I won't let you less." β
[Betilla's Wedding Day]
The next day, the wedding went ahead as scheduled, and Betilla, wearing the chosen wedding dress, slowly walked up to him with his father Chris's arm on her face, with a happy smile on her face. The hem of her skirt is very long, and there are 3 little angels around her, who are carrying flowers for her all the way. The white wedding dress made Shen Mo feel that if he touched it, he would tarnish this light. She was like the sun, and he couldn't touch it.
I exchanged oaths. Looking at Betilla's watery eyes, Shen Mo seemed to have temporarily put aside everything, and what status, identity, prejudice, and memories were gone. They only have each other in their eyes.
Then he gently took her hand and put the ring on her. "Hold the hand of the son, grow old with the son". They held hands and kissed. The guests cheered.
Church lights shine on the couple. It was like a blessing from the gods, gilding them. Bedira's hand with the ring was held by Shen Mo and placed on her chest, and she could even hear Shen Mo's heartbeat and her own heartbeat. A pair of happy lovers, two sincere hearts. They kissed with their eyes closed, as if they could last forever.
I wish time had stopped forever.
But in the next second, the tranquility was shattered. A pair of black wings appeared out of thin air, causing everyone to gasp.
PS: Night Demon will show his true form when he shows his true heart at the wedding (giving birth to black wings)
"It's the Night Demon!" I don't know who said a word in the crowd, and then the crowd became uncontrollable. Although it has been hundreds of years since the end of the fight against the Night Devil, the prejudices between the two races are still deeply rooted.
"It's the Night Demon, no wonder I haven't heard of his name." "yes, how long is he going to hide?" "I don't know if Her Highness Betilla knows......" The nobles began to look at Shen Mo and whispered.
The Night Demons had always been very good at hearing, and even if some of the women whispered softly under the cover of their fans, he could hear them clearly.
"Shen Mo ......" looked at Betilla's worried eyes, and Shen Mo gritted his teeth. He opened his mouth to say something to explain, but couldn't say anything. His eyes sank.
"Judging by His Highness's reaction, I don't know. Your Highness is really pitiful. β
"Sure enough, these night demons are some evil people at heart! Marrying His Royal Highness is actually a peek at property, right? β
"yes, come to me and tell me that they should have been wiped out at that time."
Shen Mo's heart was suddenly stung by these words, and he thought of his own people, his parents, and his sister...... In the past few years, the nightmares he deliberately avoided have gradually emerged. Almost uncontrollably, he flapped his wings violently and flew away through the window.
The broken windows of the church let the darkness outside seep into the church, as if it were the light of day. The bright shards of glass are very dazzling, like this broken and failed wedding.
The crowd was talking louder. Now it seems that everyone has decided that Shen Mo is not only an evil liar at heart, but also a coward.
"Enough!" Beatilla suddenly said, "Let's all go back." "There were constant voices of discontent in the crowd. But when she saw Betilla look up, the tears in the corners of her eyes were silenced, and she left with a sense of humor.
The only thing left in the huge church was Betilla and her family. Princess Carla walked up to Betilla, cupped her face in pain, and gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Oh, my poor little Betilla." , they hugged each other, and "Mother......" Betilla looked at Princess Carla and cried.
The church was quiet again, as if no one had just had a wedding.
[This night]
Shen Mo soared aimlessly in the air.
"When you fall in love with someone, you are always a little scared, afraid of getting him; I'm afraid of losing him. (ββZhang Xiaoxian)" Shen Mo is like this.
Betilla saved him from the Sealed Land like a ray of light during his dark time, changing his prejudices against humanity. But now he didn't want to touch the light, because it was so pure that he didn't want to pull her into the darkness.
[The other side]
Urged to sleep, Betilla lay on the bed, but did not fall asleep. She tried her best to close her eyes, but her mind was full of ink. His smile, his every move, and the incomprehensible, pool-like sadness hidden under the tenderness in his eyes. These pool-like eyes made her indulge in them, unable to extricate herself, but she didn't want to end up "lonely, sad, and quiet". A tear slipped down his eyes and quietly blurred on the pillow.
Turning over, he suddenly remembered Shen Mo's absent-mindedness before, and the growing sadness, but she was busy preparing for the wedding at that time and didn't notice it. Maybe he has something unspeakable.
A gust of wind blew the curtains open, and suddenly a figure blocked the moonlight. The familiar breath and the sound of wings flapping immediately made Betilla recognize that it was Shen Mo. But she didn't say anything.
When Shen Mo walked to her bed, he put away his wings and gently dropped a kiss on her cheek: "Betilla, I love you." Betilla's heart was beating fast, but she still didn't make a sound. Shen Mo stood next to her for a long, long time, and she could even feel his hot gaze on her face, as if he wanted to remember her appearance deeply and engrave it in her mind.
After a long time, Shen Mo spoke up: "I'm sorry. She could hear the sound of Shen Mo's tears falling on the floor.
She was surprised, she had never seen Shen Mo crying, this person always likes to cover up his sadness, leaving others with only incomprehensible tenderness. She suddenly felt a cramp in her heart, this person who had been lonely for an unknown number of years, would only lick her wounds alone in the dark night, crying tears on the floor, not fainting a little, and disappearing the next day.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of Shen Mo flapping his wings, and Betilla had the illusion that if he didn't stop him at this time, he might never see Shen Mo again.
She opened her eyes and looked at the back, the black wings about to disappear out of sight. Her body and brain reacted almost simultaneously, and a pair of flaming wings flew into the night sky with her. "Shen Mo!"
Shen Mo looked back in surprise. Looking at Betilla's Seraphic Angel's wings, the surrounding night seemed to be dyed into day.
"Shen Mo, I love you too."
"No, Your Highness," Silence looked at the tears that slipped from the corners of Betilla's eyes, "You now know the identity of my Night Demon, you are the day, the sun, and the light, and I ......" looked at himself silently and self-deprecatingly, he really wanted to say goodbye to Betilla quietly, and then continue to live alone in another place, flying alone in the night, looking up at the "sun" during the day.
"No, Shen Mo, no." Betilla looked at her and said firmly, "I don't care what your identity or status is, whether you're a Night Demon or not." Who you are doesn't determine who you are. I am not day, and you are not night. I'm Betilla, and you're Shen Mo. That's all. β
"I love you because I am who I am, and you are you; It's because our souls are in harmony with each other; It's because our hearts beat for each other. β
They can both see the love in each other's eyes.
They approached each other and hugged each other in the dark. The light of the Seraph's wings illuminated the wings of the Inky Night Demon, and the moonlight illuminated Betilla at the same time.
"Thank you." Shen Mo looked at Betilla, no longer sad in his eyes, "Sorry for messing up the wedding." I haven't formally proposed to you yet, I don't know if it's too late yet......" They flew to an open lawn when they held hands, Shen Mo conjured a bouquet of roses out of nowhere, and slowly knelt down on one knee: "Will you marry me?" Betilla. "I do." They hugged and kissed each other.
After a kiss, "Sorry, I waited a long time." Silent looked at Betilla affectionately. They looked at each other, and there was only the reflection of each other in their eyes.
"It's okay, I think we can have a new kind of wedding." Betilla smiled.
After that, Shen Mo also sincerely apologized to Betilla's family, explaining that he really loved Betilla, and everyone accepted his apology and agreed to hold another wedding.
[Wedding]
On the lawn at night, under the light of the moon, the wedding gradually began.
Betilla took her father Chris's hand and slowly entered, her hair was not tied up as usual, but casually draped, but it was beautiful. The color of her wedding dress was not white, but the deep blue of the night, and it was inlaid with many diamonds, which, in the light of the light, resembled the stars in the night sky, and the birthmark of the moon on her face.
Shen Mo looked a little stunned, his bright moon and stars were smiling towards him. He could feel his heart beating fast, a feeling of happiness that he hadn't experienced for a long time, and it hung on his heart.
The wedding ceremony went on as scheduled, and when the bouquet was thrown, it happened to be thrown into Lucas's hand. He was a little surprised, too.
Betilla and Shen Mo also drank a glass of wine, which Shen Mo personally brewed according to the traditional way of the Night Demon, which was a wedding where two cultures coexisted.
Under this night sky, Betilla and Shen Mo, they look at each other and vow to be with each other for the rest of their lives.
