Chapter 12: Cruelty

"It's over......"

The inverse cross mark on the left side of Geralf's face faded away, and the red flame on his body went out, and he returned to his normal state from that evil state.

But the mood can't be calm again!

"Why, why is this happening?"

His dark pupils swelled with sadness, and he stared at Nana on the ground, who had lost her former liveliness and turned into a cold corpse, and couldn't help but clench her fists fiercely!

Ilankos was dead, but Nana didn't wake up.

A pure flower, before it bloomed, it withered like this, and she didn't even have time to get out of this small place to see the outside world.

"Didn't we experience the cruelty of this magical world when we were very young?"

Esmeralda behaved much calmer and more decisive than Geralf, she took a deep breath and said, "Geralf, raise your head and smile, let's send Nana on our way together......

Boom –

A raging fire ignited, burying Nana, Ilankos, and the castle of the dead in the flames!

"O God, may your selfless embrace contain this pure and poor soul, and may she be safe and happy in the world of bliss, free from calamity forever!"

Geralf and Esmeralda stood on the top of the cliff, looking out at the fire, their hands folded and their expressions reverent, silently praying for Nana together.

At this time, a milky white light rose from the sea of fire, and gradually formed a chubby and cute figure, smiling and waving at the two Geralphs:

"Thank you, big brother, big sister......"

Nana!

This scene shocked them very much, and they heard that when the kind soul goes to heaven, it will be spiritualized for a short time, manifest, and say goodbye to their relatives.

I didn't expect to be lucky enough to see such a miracle today!

They had mixed feelings in their hearts and waved goodbye to Nana:

"Goodbye, Nana."

……

Ancestral house cellar.

With his white hair scattered and his eyes drooping slightly, Byson listened in silence as Geraff recounted the events of these days, his face expressionless and unuttered.

Since he was a child, Geraff would come here whenever he encountered something that he couldn't solve, and confided in the only elder in the family for answers.

"Byson, is immortality more important than relatives?"

He looked down and tugged at his fingers, and a mosquito-like sound came out.

Bison was silent for a long time, and said, "I'll tell you a story, and you can find the answer yourself." ”

Geralf nodded earnestly, pricking up his ears to listen.

……

More than 200 years ago, the wizarding world was in an era of war.

Killings, wars, years after year!

The earth has become a scorched earth, not even a single green grass can be seen, and the smoke of gunpowder obscures the sun, causing the world to be chaotic all day long, black and white.

On such a fiery day, there is an ordinary little boy who is struggling to survive.

He went to the field to dig sweet potatoes, but there was only a pile of lumps; He went to the river to catch fish, and the river dried up; He went to the mountains to pick up the bark of trees to satisfy his hunger, and the whole mountain was burned to the ground.

The battle between magicians is a disaster for ordinary people like him! Under this disaster, corpses are everywhere, and there is no grass, and it is a luxury for people to even live.

In the end, the little boy once again tightened his shriveled stomach with a strip of cloth, and returned with a disappointed face.

He has a family of ten, and in addition to his elderly parents, he has seven siblings, and he is the youngest in the family, only five years old.

The family hadn't seen a grain of food since half a year ago, and had been feeding on the bark of weeds and trees, but recently, a magical rain of fire fell from the sky and burned everything they could eat to ashes.

Now, if they can't find food, the whole family will starve to death!

The boy returned home, only to find the whole family staring at him.

Everyone's expression is different, some are crying, some are trembling, and some are ecstatic!

But the only thing that was the same was that everyone's eyes were staring at him without blinking, blooming with an icy light!

The little boy was tied up by the crowd and served as food for the family.

Die so that the whole family can live!

He must die, or everybody will die.

Frightened, frightened, tearful and desperately begging for mercy, he vowed not to eat a grain of food at home, and would desperately find food to bring home.

But no one heeded!

There's no food left in the area, except for themselves!

They also had fathers and sons, brothers, friends and brothers, and a harmonious family!

However, this damned war, which has lasted for hundreds of years, and this cruel reality, has finally forced them to the point of cannibalism.

The little boy watched his family drooling and walking towards him with knives, knowing that they had been overwhelmed by hunger and were now a pack of walking beasts.

No one can describe the sorrow in his heart, no one can understand the pain in his heart.

Why do I have to die?

Why does it have to be me to die?

The flames of despair and anger burn wildly!

At that moment, he seemed to have broken through some kind of shackle, and his body was instantly infused with powerful strength, and he suddenly broke free from the rope tied to his body!

In the end, he killed his parents, killed his brothers, killed his sisters, and survived alone!

……

Hearing the end of the story, Geralf's face had completely changed, and his heart was very complicated, and he couldn't help but sigh, as if he was lamenting the transformation of the little boy.

In the face of the cruel reality, people often choose the former between life and justice.

And only when it comes to the most desperate situation can a person's true heart be truly revealed!

"The most precious thing for a person is life, and life is only once for everyone! When this most precious thing is threatened, or even unprotected, no one knows what kind of terrible mutation will occur in people! ”

Bison looked at Geraff indifferently and said, "You just need to remember to kill anyone who tries to kill you, no matter who it is, don't hesitate!" At this point, Esmeralda's little girl is doing better than you, and if it weren't for her, you'd be dead by now!

Although the demon body is known as the immortal body, it is not absolutely immortal, there are still some ways to kill demons in the world, such as the forbidden technique - Soul Eater Nine Rotations, which can suck you to death, pay attention in the future! ”

"Oh......"

Geralf listened to Bison's words, feeling full of negative energy, a little dazed.

Over the years, Bison has been transmitting to him the truth: grab the woman you like, kill the person you don't like, and never compromise with forbearance if you can solve the problem by killing!

With the gods above and such a strange uncle in the family, it's a miracle that Geraff didn't become a little villain.

"Byson, if you are that father, I am that little boy, you ...... Will it kill me? Geralf hesitated for a moment, then asked suddenly.

Byson was stunned for a moment, as if he was stopped by Geralph, he thought seriously for a while, and said, "Yes." ”

Geralf stood up suddenly, clasped his hands, and said thoughtfully: "Yes, but I won't, I will never hurt my relatives!" ”

Bison closed his eyes and fell silent.

Close relatives......

It was a strange word to him.

More than a decade ago, when they first met, the first thought that came to Byson's mind was to kill Geralf instead of save the hungry snotty baby.

As for why.

Maybe it's because of the unfamiliar "Dad" and a pair of pure eyes full of hope that touched something soft in his heart......
