Chapter 81: Ignition
An iron chain is made of countless iron rings interlocking, and when one of the iron rings breaks, it is the moment when the iron chain collapses.
Like what......
This time!
The roof of the hall where the original sins were located disappeared.
Without any hesitation, 'arrogance' grabbed 'laziness' and jumped up.
When the body crossed the original ceiling, the body that had almost disappeared quickly materialized.
Everything was as I thought. β
'Laziness' is allowed by 'arrogance' to move forward, and if you can use your own strength, you don't need your own strength, this nature has long been imprinted in nature, and 'laziness' cannot be changed, nor will it be changed.
He looked down at the hall that gave birth to them and bound them.
experienced a breakdown.
That hall didn't go away.
On the contrary, after he and 'Arrogant' left, they are slowly recovering.
The 'lazy' know that, because of their own nature, a new 'original sin' will soon be born there, just as they were at the beginning.
This is also the origin of their seemingly immortality.
It's just that this time in the 'original sin', there will be no 'arrogance' and 'laziness'.
There could have been one more guy.
Can......
'That guy...... Wait a minute! β
'Lazy' muttered in a low voice, and then, suddenly he saw something, and spoke immediately.
'Arrogant' was puzzled, but still stopped.
Although he was a companion who 'awakened' one step later than him, after several experiences of fighting side by side, 'Arrogant' recognized the ability of this companion quite a lot.
It's unlikely, but I'd like to give it a try. β
'Lazy' whispered to himself.
His palms danced wildly again.
The power he had just replenished allowed him to calculate more completely, including everything in front of him.
Soon, the daze disappeared from the 'lazy' eyes, and after a flash of essence, he divided a part of his power into eleven parts and entered the hall that was being restored.
With the entry of this force, the speed at which the hall returned to its original state increased abruptly.
Witnessing this scene, 'Arrogant' guessed something, and he signaled 'laziness' with his eyes.
'It's too much. β
'Your power is so special, mine is just right. β
'That guy ......'
'There's still a chance. β
And now? β
'It's our turn to keep our promises!' β
'Lazy' softened his body as he spoke, like a noodle, still being pulled forward by his 'arrogance' by the collar.
'Arrogance' sped up without saying a word.
β¦β¦
In the vast, barren, dark wilderness, the crimson shadow stood straight in place.
Every breath brings the only light to the wilderness.
It doesn't know how long it's been here.
But it knows......
It can't go on like this.
It's an instinct.
It's like a survival instinct when drowning.
Therefore, when it sensed the power transmitted by its collaborators, it did not hesitate to activate the power that it had been gathering for a long time.
Rumble!
A great roar was heard over the wilderness.
The crimson shadow shines brightly.
Like a sun falling to the ground.
No!
It's not a fall to the ground!
It!
It's been lifted off again!
Under the internal and external attacks, the restraint from the earth is gone!
It spreads its wings and flies!
It looks at the sky in defiance!
There will be its next target!
But, definitely not final!
Its ultimate goal is ......
Heavenly!
Out of the sky!
Thundered!
The retrograde sun slammed into the sky.
With a roar, the 'sky' trembled violently.
As soon as the flame's wings spread, and as soon as they closed, the crimson shadow retreated slightly, and slammed into it again.
Over and over.
Flames fluttering.
Hot air pours the lid.
Lava's body cracked.
The flaming wings were nearly shattered.
But it never thought of backing down.
It had waited too long for this moment.
So long that it only knows ......
Smash it!
The obsession in the bottom of my heart made the crimson shadow bloom with a light far more than just a few times greater.
Glaring and dazzling.
'The flame is highβunyielding! β
Shouting words from the bottom of his heart, it slammed into the 'sky' again.
The flames exploded.
Magma erupts.
Without any scruples, he burst out with the crimson shadow of his strongest power, and most of his body almost disappeared.
And this timeβ
Click!
The 'sky', which had been shaking violently, cracked.
A crack opened.
The crimson shadow's magma plunged straight into it with both hands, pulling its broken body into it with all its might.
Call!
Once again, the flames burned violently.
Including the Crimson Shadow.
In the middle of his breath, a taller, more unruly body appeared.
It nodded at somewhere in the void.
And then......
Spread your wings.
Inadequate!
Not enough!
It's not close!
β¦β¦
The waves are raging.
The silent figure sitting cross-legged on the cliff was like a statue, but the next moment, the statue's eyes widened in astonishment.
At some point, the water, which could never reach the cliffs, was growing rapidly.
It's so fast that it scares it.
It's so fast that it shuddered.
A thought that had never existed before reverberated in its heart.
It sensed its own vacillation.
It shook its head quickly.
It is firm in its heart.
'No, it won't! β
'How is that possible! β
That won't happen! β
It whispered and comforted itself.
And then......
The sea overflowed the cliffs.
Wetted its body.
'This, this ......'
In a state of turmoil, it could no longer sit there cross-legged.
It fell to the ground.
It stepped back with its hands on the ground.
Bang Bang Bang!
The shallow waters rattled with it.
Lose one's head.
Or rather......
Overwhelmed.
It was accustomed to sitting there and watching the sea do useless work, and it was accustomed to seeing failure after failure.
I've been used to everything.
So, when it sees success......
It can't face it anymore.
It shouted hysterically.
It curses the people and things that have changed all this.
It gradually became submerged by the sea.
It felt real regret when the icy water poured into its mouth and nose, and it began to turn around and grope on the original cliff floor.
But the sea is rising too fast.
The force of the sea, which it once looked down upon, pushed it away from its target again and again, and slapped it down in the water again and again.
It's missed the best time.
It's going to die.
'Maybe ......'
'I should have died a long time ago. β
After all, there's no difference between being dead and dying. β
It sighed.
It seems to have given up everything, just open its arms, still swallowed by the waves.
It sank to the bottom of the sea.
Or to be more precise, the top of the original cliff.
The top of the cliff where it watched the ebb and flow of the tide.
Right now!
Here, it became the place where it was buried.
'That's right. β
It muttered to itself in a low voice, closing its eyes.
But the touch of its back made it frown slightly.
It's so hard!
Softness without the earth!
With a faint sting, it simply can't sleep!
Its hand reached into the dirt behind it and fumbled its way.
When it's ready to pull out the thing, it's done sleeping!
But when its fingertips touched the strange and familiar object, it snapped open its eyes.
Its palm jerked, pulling the object out of the dirt.
It was a metal chest.
The box has no lock.
It opens with a gentle force.
A neat set of knightly armor was placed in it.
It has long been rusted.
It has long been dilapidated.
It stared at the armor in amazement.
How long has it been since it saw it?
How long has it been since it wore it?
Forgot!
Forget it all!
It was only when death came that it thought of it, hoping that it would help it get through it.
But how can it do it in front of it?
There is no maintenance on weekdays.
There is no usual fit.
What does it do?
Oh yes.
It's like a bystander, watching the tide ebb and flow.
The feeling of watching from above, it's beautiful.
Good to see, it forgot that it was in the game itself!
'I'm sorry. β
It raised its hand to touch its armor.
The moment its fingertips touched the armor, the entire set of tattered armor shattered, shattered into powder, and swept into the surrounding water.
It had no surprises.
In its view, this is all as it should be.
It's deserved.
Glancing at the chest of armor again, it was ready to meet its bitter fruits.
The feeling of suffocation has arrived.
But......
The surrounding waters stopped, and they spread out around it.
Particles of glittering light converged in front of its eyes, and a new piece of armor gradually appeared.
Look at the armor in front of you.
It burst into tears.
It put it back on.
A faint white glow, surging to the bottom of the sea, expelled the darkness.
It walked towards the edge of the cliff, the edge of the seabed at the moment.
And then......
Leap down.
'Justice! β
'Mercy! β
'Heroic! β
'Sacrifice! β
'Humility! β
'Glory! β
'Honest! β
It remembered a long-forgotten oath in its mouth.
Each oath sounded brighter than the light on its body, and a holy sword composed entirely of light began to take shape in its hand.
Its body fell rapidly.
Eventually, we came to the bottom of the ocean.
This is the lowest end of the cliff.
It kept staring here.
But he never came here.
At the moment, it stands here.
It looked at the Optimus Pillar-like cliffs, and the darkness created by the distance obscured the top of the cliff that it should have been able to see.
It had wondered more than once what it would be like.
It's nowhere near as complicated as it thinks.
It's also far more difficult than it imagined.
But it doesn't regret it.
Taking a deep breath, it's, no, he shouted his last vowβ
'Salvation! β
Airplanes!
The glorious sword was fully formed in this oath, and then, straight for the cliff.
Rumble!
Optimus Prime-like cliffs...... Slashed by a sword.
Blocking is missing.
The water completely crossed the cliff, and it poured into where it was supposed to be, revealing its original ...... Ground.
Once again, life has come.
He reluctantly glanced at the land full of life.
Then, resolutely rose to the sky.
He's missed it once.
You can't go wrong again.
Those guys who can be called 'partners' have been waiting for him for a long time.
β¦β¦
In the void, the crimson shadow released its own light and heat.
'Arrogance' is like an erected scepter, proud and luxurious, which makes people respect and unconsciously surrender.
The 'lazy' who is dozed off by the collar has no image, but he is free.
The next moment!
Three eyes looked behind them at the same time.
In the bright light, a knight stepped in.
'I'm sorry. β
'I've kept you waiting. β
The knight bowed slightly.
'It's not too late. β
'Just right. β
'Lazy' smiled and waved his hand.
'Arrogance' is not a word.
Crimson Shadow ignored it.
It wasn't used to the other's presence, but it did its best to get used to it.
Because......
They have long been on the same side, almost ...... Not each other.
'Are you ready?' β
Lazy struggled to get himself up, but his body was crooked under such efforts, and in the end, he chose to lie down in the void.
'Ready. β
The knight responds first.
'Arrogant' nodded.
The crimson shadow looked up at the end of the void.
Thereβ
It's where they're aiming for.
'So what are you waiting for?' β
'Let's go!' β
The voice of 'lazy' fell, and the crimson shadow rose into the sky, followed by the knight, he had no horses, but he had the will to rekindle!
So, he is by no means far behind.
'Arrogance' is a step too late.
Because, 'arrogance' looks at 'laziness' more.
'Don't worry. β
We come from Him. β
Of course he knows how to do it. β
'Lazy,' said lazily.
'Be careful. β
After the 'arrogance' said a rare word, he rushed towards the backs of the two charges.
'Those who care about me are so haughty. β
It's weird. β
'Inexplicably, I'm kind of missing another guy. β
'Lazy' said that he pushed his own power to the extreme.
Like a whisper in a dream, he sends a message to the root of everything.
It's slow.
Very faint.
And at this time, the figure of the three charges had come to the end of the void.
What is the end of the void?
Dark!
Chaotic darkness!
The flames burned.
Shine brightly.
Greatsword wielding.
The darkness receded, but immediately, it reappeared.
Go fast, go back faster.
The three figures don't seem to be new to this.
They stood back to back, horns on each other, fending off the influx of chaos.
Again and again, they repelled Chaos.
The flames and the brilliance of their bodies gradually dimmed.
But their countenances were resolute.
They believe they will succeed.
They believe in their choice.
Because......
They believe in themselves!
Whether it's the heart fused with foreign matter or the power born from the heart, they are 'themselves'!
And 'themselves' have never let them down.
Not before.
There will be no one in the future.
Right now?
Not at all!
See!
Isn't that 'self'?
In the tenacious and warm morning light, hope is everything.
In the cold and merciless light of calamity, death is all.
They are like two dragons soaring in the sky, whirling with each other, biting each other, and intertwining with each other.
In the end, no one or the other!
Two sides of the same coin!
Because......
They also originate from one person.
Just now, they were like gods in the sky, silently dormant in the palm of a slender, white hand.
he
Here it comes.
He placed hope and calamity between the three figures.
When the three figures are horns of each other, they don't forget the gap left.
The whole process is gentle.
There is no day of seismic cracking.
Nor is the void broken.
There is, but only a thin, faint ...... The flames were lit.
