"Come out. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" heard a man's voice in his ear, "There is no point in hiding. ”

"I think so. Lyle whispered, standing up and stepping out from behind the ice sculpture, he stood on the steps and looked down at the man below him who was also standing on the steps.

Long silver hair, red pupils, ice-cold face, silver armor wrapped, and the gray hem of the long robe fluttered gently. The man had a slender sword hanging from his waist, and his hand was still on the hilt, it was the sword, which was swung out of the sheath just now, piercing the air and swinging out a sword pressure with a cold air, if it weren't for Lyle hiding behind the ice sculpture, it would not just be the result of a small scar on his face, facing it head-on, the sword pressure would tear his body apart like a thunderbolt.

The head of the Fourth Branch of the Knights of the Moonlit Night, the Ice Sword Saint Rhein Plath, the second son of the Plath family, and the elder brother of Lyle.

"Brother," Lyle said as he looked at the familiar figure in front of him, "I knew it was you from that sword, and I was able to instantly lower the temperature and release the sword pressure that turned the slash into a physical body, except for my brother, who is the Ice Sword Saint." ”

It's a wonderful feeling, the person in front of him is so familiar, he has blood similar to his own in his body, but now everything is so unfamiliar, to be able to face his brother so calmly and speak without a trace of fear, this is the first time in more than ten years, in history.

"Why are you here. Rhine said.

"I'm a prisoner, so I'm naturally in this prison tower, and the person who brought me here is not you, brother. ”

"I don't mean that, I'm asking, since you're a criminal, why don't you stay in your cell and run around here with a knife, don't you know you're a criminal," Rhine said. Moreover, the miserable situation here is not something you can do, it was done by those who came to save you, I didn't expect that you still have such strength among the people you came into contact with in the human world, but, even so, the moment you broke into the moonlit night silent court, it was already doomed to the fate of your entire army, escape from prison and rob prison, this level of crime, presumably you will all be executed......"

"Brother, I think you misunderstood something. Lyle suddenly spoke, interrupting Rhine's words.

"What?"

"I said I was imprisoned here, but I didn't admit to being a criminal. ”

"What do you want to say?"

"I never had this kind of idea about being selfish about the book of Revelation or something, and as for my real thoughts, maybe I really couldn't find out at that time, because I had never experienced that kind of life, so I couldn't feel it, but now I finally understand that it's not so much that I want the Apocalypse, but rather that I just want to be able to continue living in the human world, no, to continue living, even if it's to delay for one more day, as long as I can stay in that place longer, longer," Lyle said. That's something I've never experienced in the moon and night realm for more than ten years, there are no lonely, cold and dark corners, as long as a group of stupid guys circle around me every day, laughing and laughing, but I really like those stupid guys, compared to the empty room where there is no one, it's really nice to have those guys around. He laughed unconsciously, with a silly smile, as if he had unconsciously assimilated himself to those so-called "stupid guys".

Rhine was stunned for a moment, he had never seen his brother's smile like that, it was a normal person's smile, happy, happy, happy, not a trace of disguise, maybe the smile does not need to be disguised, since it is a smile, then it is necessary to laugh really happily, why pretend to be that happiness, those so-called fake smiles can't be called smiles at all.

How could a person who was haunted by the sorrows of the past, a person who had been curled up in the darkness of a corner for more than ten years, have such a smile. Lyle walked out, out of the shadows of the past, the "stupid guys" who became Lyle's light and guided him out of the darkness.

"You just said it, the moment we broke into the Moonlit Night Quiet Court, our whole family was doomed, but ah, brother, isn't fate such a thing as a thing to be changed," Lyle said. Indeed, I can also guess who the people who will come to save me, and I know that it is a fool for them to do such a thing, but it is so, when they are desperately trying to move towards this tower, if I just blindly squat in that dark corner and wait for death, then I am not a more incompetent fool, brother, I used to be cowardly once, I used to hide in a dark corner to escape, that time I lost my favorite person, more than ten years, every day I was pressed by the heavy shadow, I have had enough, really enough, I don't want to see the person I like die, and I don't want to hide and shiver when they are in danger. ”

The Rhine was silent.

"Brother, you ask me why I'm standing here, well, let me tell you, I'm going to save them, whether it's one commander as an enemy or two commanders as an enemy, even if it's an enemy with all the commanders, I'm going to save them, that's why I'm here, so I'm not going to stay in that kind of cell," Lyle said. Brother, you should be able to understand it, that kind of feeling, watching the person you love the most leave you forever, but you can't do anything, if a person can't protect anything, then what's the point of him living in the world, I made up my mind to save them, I must go back, this time I won't play that cowardly role again, even if the result is the worst, to be honest, what is the worst, is it death, I don't think, with regret and unwillingness, cowardice and decadence death is the worst, if what awaits me in front of me is really death, it doesn't matter, even if I stay in that cell I will eventually die, instead of walking on the execution stage so incompetently, it is better to observe your faith and struggle at the last moment, leave the scars of battle, wipe the blood from the corners of your mouth and smile contemptuously at the enemy, and let your body stand on the sword mound and slowly become cold. ”

As he spoke, his tone quickened, and his voice grew louder, then turned into a shout.

"You've become more eloquent. After a moment, Rhine spoke.

"A person who has been suppressed for more than ten years will have some words that he wants to vent. Lyle scratched his face.

"But how much do you think you can do with just one mouth, the world is cruel, it is harsh, and you can't do anything with that kind of blood. Rhine suddenly changed his tone, as serious as a father criticizing a child who made a mistake, but even if it is serious, it is also a feeling, people's words have feelings, it is equivalent to having color, having temperature, maybe even Rhine himself did not perceive, unconsciously, he no longer has that cold attitude towards his younger brother.

Yes, what can I do with just one passion, and if I can really do everything like that, then why did I make myself the way I am in the first place, Rhine thought to himself.

"I know, of course I know, brother, we are brothers, right, we have endured that kind of rejection and contempt together, so I also understand the cruelty and harshness of this world, but it is precisely because I understand this that I will continue to work hard to become stronger, even if I was once so cowardly, I am now working hard to become stronger for the things important to me. ”

"Are you trying to say that you are strong enough to face any enemy?" said Rhine, "no kidding, I've been through more than you, so you know more about how ruthless and cruel the world is, you haven't fully understood what the world is, and not so long ago you were just in a prison cell......" He spoke more and more frequently, as if to meet Lyle's previous cry, and his tone became rapid, and he was called "an ice man" by everyone"He has always been silent, and if he wants to shout at a person like this, in the eyes of others, he will never appear.

However, he did it now, and some of the deep feelings in his heart were constantly overflowing, in fact, Lyle was the same, how could that cowardly dead child let out such a cry, he was just a certain emotion suppressed in his heart, a certain emotion that had been numb, and after coming into contact with some people, it was finally stimulated.

The voices of the two brothers echoed everywhere in this open space, and most of the knights and prisoners had been frozen into ice sculptures, so they could no longer hear the voices of the outside world, which was just the right stage for the brothers who had been separated for more than ten years to confide in each other.

"At least, I'm no longer the coward I used to be who can't do anything, brother, you look at me," Lyle shouted at Rhein, at his brother, he raised his hand and slapped his chest hard, "Look at me, I'm having a normal conversation with you right now, I can even shout at you, yell at you, smile at you, and refute you, not long ago I couldn't even make eye contact with you!"

Rhine froze again, yes, I don't know when, where is the once cowardly brother, where is the dead child who curled up in the corner crying and crying, and now standing in front of him is no longer the little child who is afraid and scared even to look at himself, but a guy who will yell at himself for blood and faith.

"Na, brother, I actually, I have a lot of things to say to you, but I have more than ten years of words in my heart, waiting for the day when I can be afraid of anything like this, talk to you normally, and then tell you everything, thinking that one day I will talk to you well, and make up for the weight that has been missing for more than ten years," Lyle stared straight at Rhine, the red pupils and the brilliance emitted by the red pupils collided with each other, but the burning gaze from Lyell's eyes gradually overwhelmed Rhine's erratic gaze," But not yet, I still have to do something, brother, you're a regimental leader, and I'm just a guy who just escaped from his cell by being called a criminal, so it's unlikely that you'll let me go like this, so ......"

Lyle took a deep breath, as if the next words were a bombshell, and Rhine looked at him with some confusion.

"So?"

"So, brother, let's fight, I want to win you, if I win you, then let me go, if I lose to you, whatever you do," Lyle pulled out the black knife behind his back, the blade pointed at Rhine, the blade slid through, and the air whirred, as if it had been slashed fiercely," I will make my brother identify with me, agree with my current strength, and I will let my brother understand that I am no longer the incompetent child, in fact, it is the person known as the Sword Master who has become the wall that hinders me, and I will also step over it. ”

Rhine stood stunned for a moment, and then sighed, "Is that so, you are indeed not the incompetent child you used to be, it is impossible for an incompetent child to have the courage to point a sword at me, okay, I will agree to your request, there are many knights who have been frozen here, they are not dead, so fighting here will hurt the innocent, come with me." ”

Bright green particles of light bounced under the feet of the two men, and two beams of blue light flashed, and the figures of the two brothers disappeared in place.

Moonlit Night Prison Tower, outside the tower.

Rhine and Lyle stood opposite each other, Rhine looked at his brother's serious posture, and slowly pulled out the knife in the sheath at his waist, with the release of a dazzling light, the blade of the long knife was gradually revealed in the air, the silver blade seemed to be able to attract all the brilliance, the body of the silver sword exuded a magnificent and dazzling blue-white light, as if it was made of the moon, Rhine completely pulled out the knife and placed it in front of him, as if holding the most gorgeous crystal in the world.

"My knife is one of the five good knives in the moon and night realm, and its name is Han Jue. He made a perfect starting motion, leaving no flaws on his body, and the man and the knife seemed to be one and the same.

Lyle felt his breath pause for a moment, and for the first time he saw the true appearance of his brother's long knife, because his brother's drawing was so fast that his eyes couldn't catch it, and the knife was already back in its sheath when he reacted. The knife shook him deeply, a knife like a holy elf, when the blade was picked out, the starry sky dimmed, and everything in the world seemed to retreat, because the magnificence of the knife could attract all eyes.

"Rhine Plath, the head of the Fourth Branch of the Knights of the Moonlit Night, Lyle Plath, if you can step into my position, you can prove yourself to me. ”
