Since I was born, I have lost my eyes, and the whole world I live in has been plunged into a dull darkness as thick as an iron curtain.

The old people in the village said, "I am a child who should not have been born."

Because of my birth, my mother, who was already in weak health, died of a serious illness soon after.

Many times, I also feel that I am a disaster star who brings disaster, not only killing my mother, but also causing my brother to make him live so hard, and having such a sister who can't see anything is really a big burden in such a hungry world.

I've wondered countless times if I didn't let my brother live so hard as long as I died.

But...... I'm really afraid of death, not because of death itself, but because I'm afraid that I'll never hear my brother's voice again, and I won't be able to feel the warmth of my brother's arms again.

I hate myself for being useless, if my eyes could see the light, I could do my best to help my brother find food, laundry and cooking, instead of just staying in the dark all day long waiting for him to come home, as I am now.

That's the only thing I can do, waiting for my brother to come home.

Every time my brother went out to look for food, I stayed quietly in the house, because I couldn't see day or night, so I could only count the time in the dark.

My brother used to come home when it was dark, but once, I waited in the dark for two full hours of darkness, and he still didn't come back.

Even though my brother always said that it was easy to go out and find food when he was in front of me, he never mentioned that there was any danger. But I can't see with my eyes, but I know very well that this is not the case, and I often hear people in the village talk about the dangers outside the village, and often people die on the way to find food outside the village.

Thinking of the words I had heard about the dangers outside the village, I curled up in the dark, thinking of my brother who had not returned, and tears flowed uncontrollably.

If my brother is really gone, then what's the point of me living in this world?

"Xiaoxi, my brother is back......"

I don't know how long time passed in the dark, and I unconsciously curled up in the dark and fell asleep, I heard a familiar call in my ears.

When I heard that my brother had come home, I threw myself into his arms, and the feelings of grief and fear that I had suppressed before exploded together, and I began to cry.

Then, my palm touched some viscous liquid in the dark, with a pungent smell of blood, a wound on my brother's body that had not yet healed.

My brother just said that I had encountered some small troubles outside the village, so I didn't have to worry, and said happily that the food I brought back this time was enough for my brother and sister to eat for a long time, and he could stay with me for the next few days.

Although I couldn't see it with my eyes, I could clearly feel from the wound how serious and dangerous the so-called little trouble was in my brother's mouth, and for a moment tears welled up even more.

I blame myself, if it weren't for my drag, if my brother hadn't taken care of me, who had been in poor health since I was born, he could have lived a better life than he has now, at least not so desperately looking for food.

As if sensing my inner thoughts, my brother held me tighter in his arms, then stretched out his palm and touched my head, and said softly: "Xiaoxi, don't blame yourself, all this has nothing to do with you at all." In fact, if it weren't for Xiaoxi by my side, my brother would have been unable to hold on and give up the idea of living in this cold and cruel world, so it was Xiaoxi who gave my brother hope to live, and my brother should thank you. ”

"However, if it weren't for me, my mother wouldn't have died at all, just like those people outside said, I am a child who should not have been born, and it will only bring disaster and bad luck." I cried.

"How so? Xiaoxi, do you know that when her mother left, she had a smile on her face. In fact, my mother's body has long since run out of oil, but because you are still in the womb, she worked hard to persevere until you were born. Just like the name your mother gave you when she was dying, you are the hope she held onto. ”

My name is "Nozomi", and Nozomi is the Nozomi of Hope, which is the name my mother gave me when she was dying.

My brother held my palm and said softly: "So in the future, Xiaoxi, you must not say these stupid things again, and don't think about those stupid stupid things in your heart, just let our brother and sister rely on each other in this cruel world." ”

"Hmm!"

I nodded emphatically.

There was an indescribable warmth in the palm of my hand, and at that moment, it was as if all the darkness in front of me had been melted away by this warmth, and I had become fearless.

As long as my brother is here, I won't be afraid of anything!

Depend on each other for a lifetime.

……

……

When I was younger, I had never seen the light that my brother described as it, or the flowers blooming everywhere in the sun, or the sea so blue that it met the sky...... These brothers have described to me more than once in my ears the beautiful scenery that I have never seen.

However, even if these scenery were really as beautiful as my brother described, I was not very interested, and what I wanted to see most was not a picturesque beauty, but just my brother's appearance.

Because in my heart, my brother is the most beautiful and the best, and everything in this world is incomparable.

I'm really glad that I was able to be my brother's sister and rely on him as much as I do now.

"Xiaoxi, don't worry, my brother will definitely find a way to cure your eyes and let you see the light!" More than once, when my brother saw my dull eyes, he said with distress.

And I, every time, smiled and nodded, convinced.

I don't believe that my eyes, which I couldn't see since I was born, can be restored and finally see the light, but I just believe in my brother himself, as if I believe in this beautiful hope.

Actually, I know very well how difficult it is for me as a human to see the light, comparable to climbing to the sky.

In this world, the human race is not only born with a weak body, it is completely incomparable to those demon beasts that are born with a strong body, and it is also impossible to be like those demon races who can absorb and mobilize the power of heaven and earth, which can be said to be the lowest and most inferior race.

If it weren't for the fact that the flesh of the human race was very favored by the demon race, in the past ten million years, the human race would have died long ago.

There is no demon lord at all, willing to spend his own mana healing for a human race that is just cheap and lowly food.

However, no matter what desperate situation I find myself in, I always have to live with hope in my heart, which is what my mother and my brother taught me to live.

The village where my brother and I live is the property of a demon lord, and there are more than 100 of the same villages in its hands.

Thankfully, this demon lord doesn't like the young Terrans, but likes to eat the middle-aged and elderly Terrans, saying that the meat of the old Terrans is chewy.

Therefore, my life with my brother is relatively peaceful, and I don't have much worry about my life for the time being.

And because my brother has shown extraordinary strength and talent since he was a child, the boulder that usually takes ten people to move, my brother can move it alone, so he is quite feared in the village, and no one dares to bully our brother and sister.

My brother doesn't understand why he has a unique talent for strength, but he often likes to look at the sky, sometimes for a whole day, as if that is where he finally ends.

I thought that the days when our brother and sister depended on each other would continue to be peaceful, but that day, this peace was finally broken......

Another big lord of the demon clan came to the lord's castle of our village as a guest, and the big lord of the demon clan from other places loved the tender meat of very young girls the most, so all the school-age girls in the village were requisitioned as table ingredients......

Among them, I am also included.

My brother, who rushed back to the village after hearing the news, fought with the demon guards in order to protect me from being taken away as food.

In a desperate situation, his brother has awakened a talent that the human race does not have, and like the great lords of those demon clans, he has the powerful power to communicate the power of heaven and earth.

All the demon clan guards were killed by his brother alone.

Almost all of the villagers who saw this scene fell to their knees, believing that his brother was a messenger sent by heaven to save the human race from suffering.

The first thing my brother did after gaining this power was to heal my eyes and let me see the light for the first time in my life.

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the most beautiful scenery in my life, and that was the face of my brother who I had always longed to see.

Because he killed the guards of the demon lord, he had just awakened his strength, and his brother, who had not yet been able to face the demon army, left the village with me who had regained his sight and began a life of exile.

And in the days of exile in the world, there are more and more followers around my brother, and these people have mastered the method of communicating and absorbing the power of heaven and earth like the demon clan under the guidance of my brother.

Because this kind of exercise was initiated by the elder brother, and the elder brother named himself "Dao", they called this power "Dao".

After seeing the light, although I saw the appearance of my brother who thought about it day and night, and saw the beautiful scenery that my brother had told me more than once, I also saw the filth and tragedy of this world.

There are too many Terrans, and they are treated like edible domestic animals.

And for some reason, since gaining power, my brother has also begun to have some strange changes.

This change is not a change in the treatment of my sister, in fact, my brother is still the same as before, he is very spoiled and cared for, even if I want the stars in the sky, he will do his best to pick them for me.

The change of my brother is caused by the treatment of other human races, whether it is in the face of the tragedy of the human race, or in the face of the cruel behavior of those demon races, there is no trace of compassion and anger in my brother's eyes, only the coldness and indifference that is high above the transcendent things.

This feeling is like my brother no longer thinks that he is a member of the human race, with a transcendent posture above everything, like watching an ant that lives and dies, looking at everything below without sorrow or joy.

In addition, the number of times my brother looks at the sky has also increased a lot, and it seems that he will return to the sky at any time with the wind.

My brother once said that he was going to find a quiet place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and take me in to spend the rest of my life together, ignoring the things outside the world.

But in the end, this idea was not realized, and his brother chose to lead the human race to fight against the demon race and became the supreme king of the human race.

I didn't understand the reason for my brother's abrupt change at the time, and it wasn't until a long, long time later that I remembered the root of it all.

One night, my brother, who was looking at the sky, suddenly turned around and asked me casually if I had any wishes that I wanted to fulfill, and then I said that I hoped that there would be peace in this world, and that there would be no more bloodshed, death, and sorrow.

My brother at that time, after hearing my words, just chuckled lightly and said softly that this wish was really difficult.

I didn't care about it at the time, because it was too difficult and there was no way to realize it, so I just said it casually. Unexpectedly, my brother has always kept it in my heart.

In the days when I became the king of the human race, and in the days of the desperate war against the demon army, I couldn't communicate with the power of heaven and earth because of my weak body, and my brother didn't want me to have this power, because my brother didn't want me to fight with the demon clan on the dangerous battlefield, so I was left at home and protected by him.

Just like before, I was waiting at home for my brother to return.

Every time my brother led the army to the battle, I could only stay at home and pray to the heavens that my brother would return safely, and at the same time, when my brother's army returned, I held a lamp in my hand and guarded my brother's home on the road outside the door.

What if my brother can't find his way home?

After all, my brother is alone in such a world, fighting for the human race, and I am the only relative, so even if I am the only one, I must let my brother feel the warmth of home.

……

……

In the fifth year of the struggle against the demon army, there was a small rebellion within the Terrans.

Those generals of the Terran rushed to the house where my brother and I lived while my brother was fighting against the demon army on the front line, and took me hostage.

They also know that my brother's favorite thing in this world is my sister, and I am the only weakness of my brother as a king.

The reason why I was held hostage was because these people thought that my brother must have hidden his secrets and did not hand over all the cultivation exercises, otherwise why would my brother be so powerful, while the cultivation process of these people was so slow.

They think that as long as they hold me hostage, they can make my brother hand over all the cultivation exercises and know-how, and then the strength of the human race will increase by leaps and bounds, and it will be easier to defeat the demon race.

They completely forgot that if it weren't for the appearance of their elder brother, the current situation of the human race would still be for livestock and animals, and these people did not have the slightest sense of doing wrong, but thought that they had done a great good thing for the human race, and they were righteous people.

Then, when they took me hostage to my brother, they all died.

I have never seen my brother so angry, and I have never thought that my brother, who has always been extremely gentle in front of me, has become so powerful that just by looking at these people, they directly lose all their vitality.

"Oh, human heart."

Picking me up from the frightened, my brother looked at the corpses at his feet and spat out this sentence coldly, with an expression of disappointment and loss on his face.

At that time, I thought that my brother was disappointed because of these people's actions of holding me hostage, but later I realized that my brother's disappointment was not because of these people's actions, but because even if he really calmed down the world, the human race would be respected, and the world would not always be peaceful, and there would still be bloodshed, death, and sorrow......

And the wish I made at that time may never be fulfilled for me.

The reason for this is because of the "human heart".

Even if there is no foreign enemy as powerful as the demon race, war and destruction will still be generated in the endless internal struggle of the human race.

After that small rebellion, my brother seemed to be unaffected, and he was still fighting against the demon army on the front line as the king of the human race.

Perhaps, in the past few years, my brother, who acted as king, has also seen many good things in the human race, and those who held me hostage before are not the whole story.

Although it is difficult to achieve a wish, it is necessary to have a hope in our hearts, and maybe one day it will be realized.

However, for the sake of my safety, my brother spent a lot of effort to improve the white fox that we adopted together to the original source, so that the white fox could protect me for him when he was away.

Some time passed, and news of the defeat suddenly came from the front.

It turned out that the rise of the human race caused the backlash of the mysterious Heavenly Dao, and the heavenly punishment was sent down in front of the army, with countless casualties.

Perhaps under the rules of the Heavenly Dao, the human race exists as a livestock, how can it turn over and become the master of this land?

However, the elder brother said that the way of heaven does not tolerate the human race, because it knows the potential contained in the human race, so it is afraid.

Therefore, the elder brother gathered the strength of the entire human race at that time and decided to create a weapon called "sword" to slash the sky.

Brother, he's really powerful, as if he understands everything.

However, during the casting of this sword, something went wrong, because there was no one to endow it with spirits.

A soulless weapon may be able to sharpen iron like clay, but it will definitely not be able to threaten the Heavenly Dao.

And I also learned from the message that others deliberately and secretly sent to me that my brother decided to cancel the sword-forging plan, because only the closest relatives and loved ones of the sword-bearer can endow this sword that slashes the sky.

And in this world, the only person who can be qualified to give this sword spirit is me, who is his sister!

If there is no such sword, then the elder brother who has been detected by the Heavenly Dao is really unlucky.

I understand the meaning of this message secretly conveyed to me by the other party, and I have already made a decision in my heart.

On that day, I put on the most beautiful new clothes that my brother had given me, made a table of my brother's favorite food on weekdays, and then took advantage of my brother's rest to secretly leave the house and walk in the direction of the sword furnace.

The scorching white heavenly fire was raging, and the sword that cut the sky stood in the middle, and I stood in front of the fire, my heart was calm.

I've always been taken care of by my brother, and now I'm really happy that I can finally do something for him.

I don't regret my decision at all, the only thing I regret is that I didn't stay with my brother for a little longer, and I didn't see him a few more times.

But it doesn't matter, from now on, I can still be by my brother's side, not like I was able to stay at home and pray, but I can become a sword in my brother's hand, accompany him in his battles, and never be separated for the rest of my life.

Jumping down, the white fire engulfed me, and the scorching temperature was the same as the warmth of my brother holding my palm in that small village many years ago.

The kind of warmth that can dispel all darkness and be fearless.

It's true...... I'm very happy!
