"The world is big, and if we can find a place far enough away, we can escape fate, hide from the gods, escape everything. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 The fact is that we simply don't have the strength and the intelligence to escape our fate, the world is big, but we are as small as ants, we are cursed all the time, we are destined not to escape from the hands of the gods who hold our destiny, because wherever we flee, fate will always come to us. ”

"Hey, did you hear that?"

"What did you hear?"

"Preparations for war in the kingdom are beginning again!"

"St. Lucas? Didn't you just finish fighting Miller? There were only a few of the tens of thousands left, and we don't know anything about what happened to Miller, and the news was blocked too tightly!"

"The devil knows what is going on above, maybe Targarion VI wants to follow the statecraft of the fourth king and establish his prestige and expand his territory by waging war, and this is how RedCross was destroyed!"

"But St. Lucas is not the weak RedCross, and it is separated from us by a sea, and he has not been able to distinguish the winner after ten years of fighting, and now he is ready to start an all-out war?"

"No, it's still in the preparation stage, I heard before that the kingdom once sent the knights to the west to carry out special missions, and it is likely to be related to St. Lucas......"

"But aren't the Knights busy leaving the Church now......?

"Anyway, as long as they don't call, it has nothing to do with us, let's continue to live our little life honestly......"

To the north of Lori is the entertainment district of the city, where pubs, inns, gambling houses, and the Colosseum abound, and the above conversation takes place in the most famous "chivalry" tavern in the entertainment district.

It was just after noon, and there weren't many people in the tavern, but as a famous tavern, there was never a shortage of customers, and the tavern owner preferred to have fewer customers at times than to serve the kind of jar that he didn't leave all day, and the one he knew only was a rag-clad customer named Regulus.

According to the tavernkeeper's recollections, the young man named Regulus had only appeared in his tavern after the kingdom had ended its war with Miller, and every time he came, he wore a ragged suit and ordered only one type of wine, and each time he was unconscious, sometimes staying in the tavern for days. At first I thought he was a homeless man from outside, but he never once owed money for wine, and his spending in the tavern was higher than that of the nobles who spent a lot of money every time he came, and the boss began to wonder if he was using some ill-gotten gains, but every time he saw his fierce appearance, he didn't dare to dig deeper.

This time, the tavernkeeper finally had no patience, and when Regulus began to smash his good wine after talking to an old man, he finally made up his mind to drive him away, but the fellow did not look strong, but he could not drag it out, and finally he used four strong thugs to throw him out.

"Get out of here, even if you have more money, you're no longer welcome here!" said the tavernkeeper with a look of disgust at Regulus, who was lying in a puddle, before turning back and closing the back door of the tavern.

"You dare to do that to me, you know...... Do you know who I am......" Regulus finally managed to say the words intermittently, but it didn't sound like much strength, he propped his hands behind his back, his head drooped to his left shoulder, his legs tried to stand up, but he only shook twice and let himself fall back into the puddle, splashing his dirty water, making his already ragged clothes look even more torn, "What is the Church of Light! Lao Tzu is the god of war!" Regulus yelled, but only to be met with a burst of laughter from a few onlookers at the entrance of the alley.

"God of War, just like him, I'm still the King of the Underworld!" said a passer-by with a brown fur hat to his friend with a smile.

"Don't be serious with this drunken idiot, beware he's going crazy with you!" said the man next to him and dragged him away.

"The King of the Underworld?hahahahahahahahahaha

"What a madman. The onlookers dispersed, leaving Regulus alone looking up at the blue sky in a daze.

Regulus lay unconsciously asleep in the sewage, and when he woke up again, he saw a full moon high in the sky. The moonlight lit up the sky, casting a little light in the narrow alleys, and reflecting the moonlight on the walls through the puddles on the ground, casting all sorts of strange shadows.

"Moonlight...... It's her favorite......" Regulus's mind conjured up the scene of two children dancing together in the moonlight—a boy kneeling on one knee in front of the little girl, kissing the back of her hand, playing the role of prince and princess, and the little girl's face was full of happy smiles.

"She's the goddess of the moon, how could she die......" Regulus looked once more at the crudely and ugly bracelet in his hand, and he knew that Alyssa must have been much better than he was. After a day of lying in the alley, he was much more sober, and he climbed up from the ground with his hands on the wall, looking at the reflection of the full moon in the puddle. The dripping water from the eaves rippled the calm waters, and the full moon became distorted and blurred, and Regulus began to feel that Alyssa's image of him was also becoming blurred. He shook his head, shook off a few clumps of sludge, patted his clothes that were getting dirtier and dirtier, and walked out of the alley.

Regulus' current home is in the slums, not far from York's home. Although the rewards given to him by the kingdom and the care of the knights were enough for him to live in the noble quarter, it didn't matter where he lived, who no longer had a family or a hometown, and in order to avoid attracting attention, he chose a rotten house in the ghetto.

Although Regulus was much more sober, he still couldn't find his balance after days of heavy drinking, and he staggered over boxes and crates on the side of the road along the way, but fortunately it was night, and it did not cause a commotion, nor did he cause trouble by bumping into pedestrians. It took Regulus three times as long as a normal person to get to the door, which was half rotten and unlocked, for the thief knew that there was nothing to steal from such a place, but the thief did not know that there was an exception in the slum where there lived a lot of money.

Regulus staggered forward, almost slamming the door open, and the room was pitch black, and he found a delicate scroll on an old wooden cabinet in the doorway, and as soon as he unfolded it, a ball of light floated out of it, illuminating the whole room. This was one of the many things that Archbishop Joshua developed to popularize sorcery. There was only a wooden bed and a few barrels in the room, and in the corners of the room were piled up bounties of gold, silver, and jewels from the kingdom, as well as several gold bars, which were very dazzling in the light of the ball of light, and the reflection of the golden light made the whole room brighter. Regulus had never counted his wealth, and if he could get Alyssa back by giving it up, he would give it away without saying a word.

Deep down, Regulus was still almost madly in love with the one he had loved for hundreds of years, or Flordy, whatever the name, and he was now just using the grief of losing Alyssa to suppress the curse that had haunted the three of them for so many years, a play directed by the damned Hades that lasted for hundreds of years. Regulus had never realized what it meant to him to lose Alyssa, and until he knew the truth about his background, his feelings for Alyssa were nothing more than a brother's affection for a silly sister, and after learning about his entanglement with Alyssa in his previous life, he instinctively began to alienate and ostracize Alyssa, pushing her aside, jealous of her power, ashamed of being saved by her, etc. But when he had Alyssa's memory, saw the person who had been with him for 70 years, and experienced everything from her point of view, when Alyssa gave her life in front of him, he felt his heart torn apart. It was a pain worse than being pierced through his heart with an ice blade by Koyales, a pain he knew he would never heal for the rest of his life. He finally knew how much he needed Alyssa.

"If I die now, will I be able to see Alyssa again in the afterlife......" Regulus fell over the wooden bed, looking up at the cobwebs hanging from the ceiling, watching a spider slowly climb up to the top and slowly fall down, thinking to himself, "It's a curse that can't be broken anyway, the three of us are destined to be tied together......"

"Do you really think so?" Regulus thought of the woman's voice in his mind, and he now knew that the owner of the voice was the one who was bent on killing him, but it was far less cold than the Koyales he had seen before, but in the same calm tone that had awakened him from the grief of Sheen's death in front of him.

"Why do you bother me now? Don't you want to kill me? Let me die! Aren't you happier that I'm dead? Or do you have to kill me with your own hands? Then tell me where you are, and I'll personally send you to the door to let you take my life!!" Regulus cried out to the ceiling alone in the empty house, and the sound shook the web-weaving spiders from side to side, and climbed up in fright.

"Have you forgotten what Alyssa said to you at the end? she wants you to break the curse and live well. Do you want to let her down like this?If you fall into reincarnation again in the next life, how will you face her again?" The voice of Koyales in Regulus's head was still calm and cruel, cruelly speaking the truth.

"But I ......"

"Don't you want to find out the truth about the intrigues of the Hades, the purpose of the demon gods, and the people and children of the gods who have been helping you? Are you the god of war, you have defeated the dark elves, saved the humans from the High elves, and established the Knights, and you have been so dedicated to protecting the humans you love so much, and now you are going to give up everything for this selfish desire? Don't forget how Alyssa feels about you, she loves the selfless silly boy Regulus more than the selfish dragon slayer!"
