Chapter 14: The Milestone of Spring (Part II)

"The Firmament...... Empress. As he exhaled softly, Cedar's mind was in chaos.

It wasn't the first time he'd encountered it, but even though he was stronger than he had been at the beginning, he was still very weak in the majestic power that overwhelmed him. The hand holding the hilt of the sword was still shaking, and his eyes were wide open, desperately forcing himself to think in pain.

"Old friend," Harden was the first to speak in the horror and chaos, smiling and patting Abel's stiff back by the way, "It looks like we're about to clear the level, the boss is out." ”

"I should have complimented you first, Harden Tesla. The Demon King, who descended into the void with the grace of a god, spoke indifferently, and looked down at them with a blue eyes as cold as a jewel, "Your calmness and determination in organizing your companions in an emergency are worthy of your past service to me. But you miscalculated something, and I can give you a few more minutes to think about how to salvage. ”

"Yes, you are merciful, ma'am. Harden pinched out a sarcastic tone, but Cedar saw him from behind and spoke slowly, tense for the next lightning strike.

In response to Harden's provocation, the Empress of the Sky chuckled indifferently: "I feel very uncomfortable, you think that the opponent is just me, in fact, your opponent is the demonic thoughts nourished by the mutual hatred of your companions." ”

Of course, they were uncomfortable, and they had to constantly face the ugly monsters from the Demon Realm, and it was already an irrefutable sad fact that these monsters were nourished from within.

In the midst of the harmony of a wild beast, she opened her arms like a goddess and showed a benevolent posture, and the beautiful witch said in a loud voice: "This is a cage built by the courtyard for thousands of years, and you want to be a hero? Then selflessly use your flesh and blood to pay for the sins of the past! If you want to cleanse the evil of today, you are not even qualified to come to me!"

"Sorry to interrupt you, but has anyone told you that every time you appear on the lines is embarrassing to hear, shall we keep it simple?" Harden tried his best to gather strength, but he still forced her to raise the bar, "Although I also said that my guardian speaks with the smell of chicken soup for the soul, at least he is sincere, and he doesn't make drafts, and he speaks much better than yours." ”

It's not the grandeur of the demon king to be provoked just like this, and the empress's voice is unwavering: "You don't seem to understand your situation. ”

"You don't seem to know much about children, after all, you are a mother who doesn't even understand the hearts of her own children," Harden still mocked under the huge pressure, "You'd better stop being verbose, otherwise we'll really run for our lives, and you'll be troubled and lost if you don't care about you." ”

was not provoked, and the empress smiled in her tone: "It's really admirable courage, it's so miserable and you still want to concentrate all my killing intent on yourself, obviously it doesn't look like such a selfless hero." ”

"Am I unbearable in your eyes?" Harden laughed, as if he was simply arguing with her, "but don't be in a hurry to praise me, I'm just looking at you unpleasantly." ”

"Go ahead and pretend to be pathetic, I'll tell you where the loopholes in your decision-" Probably never took them into account, the empress just calmly handed down the ruthless ruling, "Didn't you also say that this time it was the Twin Demon Kings?

Before he could finish speaking, the thick ice barrier that was advancing in front of him shattered, and Paris suddenly fell to the ground, letting out a low scream!

"Big sister?" Seeing Paris fall in the rear, Cedar and Ivan panicked, and reacted faster than Cedar, and the branch driving force filled the void of Upper Paris, and the huge vines took over the snow and ice and scattered into bone butterflies, which were then destroyed by Ellie and Rebecca. He then looked sideways at Zhaohua and Sally, who were continuing to fend off the monsters from both sides, their eyes striking at each other. Then there's only Paris -

"I probably won't be able to do it anymore......" gasped as she tried to speak to Ellie and Harden as they gathered around, Paris still trying her best to release her power to fend off the monsters, "Let Ivan come and reclaim this power...... This false life can't sustain the immortal sigilβ€”"

"Don't be like this, you're not done yet! weren't you like that just now, you can't talk yet?" Allie comforted her, and then struck a thunderbolt to destroy the wave of white butterflies that swooped in her face.

"It's okay, she could kill us right away......" Harden still laughed and whispered in desperation, "but she didn't." ”

Hearing his words, Paris also laughed in pain: "Most of the demons are arrogant. And bad luck ...... Don't you just like to play tricks?"

"Then prove it, arrogance is weakness!" suddenly released the red glow to sweep everything, and Harden's voice was like screaming to abandon all the fears in his heart-

That's right, Cedar does remember that the proud and strong Harden confessed to himself that even he would be afraid. Now Cedar seems to be able to understand Harden's fear, Harden's stubbornness, and Harden's courage. And everyone who was once thought by him to be born like this must be like this, just for the sake of others to hold up a brave posture-

It's because of fear that you're even more courageous, and you've already made up your mind to go with them, isn't it?

On top of the blazing fire, the thunder was brewing, even if it was a little, to share the weight of the doom that had befallen their heads!

"It's really grown, Colorless General. Still looking down on them magnificently, Cedar could imagine a faint and malicious sneer beneath the cracked silver mask, "But do you want to stop me?

The cold words that should come will still come, Cedar forced a smile, and stepped forward with trembling feet on the gravel: "I'm not so self-righteous, I know I'm not a demon king's henchman at all!

"The wheel of fortune has eight spokes to support its operation, which means that you have eight futures to choose from," the empress looked down on Cedar indifferently as she was unscathed by the attacks of everyone in the rear, "and do you have to choose this dead end?"

"I used to have a lot of choices," the voice didn't resound in the turmoil, but Cedar wanted to tell himself out loud than to say it to his companions and rivals, "I also came here with a passable mentality, but I know that I'm already a part of this place, and it all has to do with me!"

Immediately sneering at his declaration, the Empress responded, "You'll regret it, you just thought your childish dreams could bear itβ€”"

"I know, but I do!" interrupted her with clenched fists, and Cedar tilted her face with a desperate expression.

"I didn't think I could be stronger before, because in this world I don't have the guts to learn black magic, but I don't have the talent to learn white magic......" The continuous destruction of the seal is still constantly being repaired, Cedar resolutely looks up at the Demon King's overly perfect posture, "But now I understand that in order to be alive, you can give birth to power, but without feelings, you can't channel your own power, for me my magic is such an existence, without love, there will be no miracle!"

That's right, Cedar is still longing for the dream of protecting the peach capital for three thousand miles, the smiles of friends, and the expectant eyes of elders...... That's all he wants, and that's all his miraculous power, just hoping to see a normal season!

"What guns did you come up to block...... Harden suddenly sighed on the side without appreciation, "I don't know if anyone who can recover blood is the first to be killed?"

The sense of tragedy was gone, Cedar was laughed angrily, and the beat with the power of recovery brought strength: "You still don't thank me! It's not here to replenish your blood, bastard! Who will open the way if you die!"

"Unreasonable little ghost. "Straight down the thunder and fire, the empress of the sky did not have a moment of mercy-

But the sword of light that pierced the heavens and the earth quickly disintegrated, turned into a power grid, and the electric sparks dissipated!

"Thank you for saving my life...... "The magic circle that took the time to lay came in handy, driving the Thunder Flower Rush Spirit Array to seize and dissolve the magic power, Ellie, who was almost prostration, tried to hold back her cold voice, "If you die...... Will you go back alive and do it again?"

"It's not that he's broken the rhythm......" The pain that had been left behind for the time being invaded his body again, and Cedar couldn't help but smile bitterly, dispelling the endless magic on the road with a purifying pattern.

"The obstacle ahead is the weakest right now, so let's go now. The pragmatic Abel picked up Paris and pulled Harden up with one hand.

"Then this is your last battle," sneered from the heavenly vault, and the Queen of Sin sent down heavenly punishment again, "Heaven-Punish-One." ”

"We're not your bread!" Ellie shouted as she returned all the thunder and lightning that the land had endured, as she burst into the air like a tree of light.

"Could this be the last......" Gathering all his strength again, even if he was trembling, he didn't seem to feel fear, and Cedar smiled. And the sound of Nobueda's laughter also lingered in his ears-

"Then you can say that you have exhausted the bravery of this life, right? Only by doing your best can you strive for miracles!"

Yes, you can't touch a miracle without sacrifice, even if it's just wishful thinking, even if it's just stubbornness, but you want to do it from the bottom of your heart. Feeling the extremely evil force shattering the light tree and falling down, shaking and opening the most gentle flower crown in front of Ellie, Cedar shouted on her back against the wind and rainβ€”

"Come on, Empress of the Firmament!"

Why is it so difficult for you to laugh at children, who control the world, but until I spit out my last breath, you will never be able to do it! I will spill blood here, I will be liberated here, I fear the stupid and abundant spring in my heart!

-

Preview: "So this city-wide bloody sacrifice has chosen you." ”

"Offering me the sins of the whole city, what do you want?"

"I want you to fight alongside me, Son of Doom and Might. ”

"We were born in the storm, and the children of the stormy ocean are fearless!"

"You shouldn't provoke those of us who are physically and mentally imprinted, this is really desperate with you, Empress of the Firmament!"

"That's the end of it, what kind of freedom does the caged bird want!"

"Shut up, Spider Demon, since you've stepped into the birdcage, don't try to get out alive!"

Regardless of when we started to be toyed with, the only thing that is certain today is that we will and will fight together. The physical and mental scars of death and despair are bleeding from pain, but the mark of fate also makes us hesitate no longer!

The next chapter, the brand of the dead.
