【Demon】Section 2 Regulus (4)
For the next three months, they both sold vegetables and talked about their daily routines, during which time Regulus did not notice any signs that he was the son of a god or the existence of the heart of Sylim, until one day Reiner took the initiative to invite Regulus to his house.

Reiner's home is located on the outskirts of the 8th arrondissement, and there is a large farm with a variety of glowing crops. Reiner's wife, Sola, prepares sumptuous dishes to entertain him, and Reiner's son Wright is also sensible and obedient, and warmly calls him "Uncle Ann".
"Ah!" Reiner said to Regulus at the dinner table, "and when you talked about family and ancestors, I have been wondering all these days, who are our ancestors, and what is the outside world like?
"Honey, don't think nonsense, a little inhalation of the outside air can kill you, not to mention that there is no way to the outside world at all, let's live honestly!"
"Uncle, have you ever been to the world above?" Wright looked at him with wide, round red eyes, his eyes full of anticipation.
"I've been. ”
"What?!!" Reiner was shocked.
"I mean, I wish I had been......" Regulus quickly explained.
"Come on, the outside world is full of temptations, and we must find a chance to see it in the future! If you find a way, don't forget to call me!" Reiner patted Regulus on the shoulder.
"Reiner!" shouted Sora in a complaining tone, "you are really, not to be a good example to your children, and to talk about such unrealistic fantasies!"
"Oh, people should always have a head, right?" said Reiner, picking up the knife on the table and preparing to cut the meat, when a burst of flame suddenly erupted from his hand holding the knife, enveloping his hand and the knife. "Ah, what's going on!"
"Reiner!" Sora screamed as she ran into the kitchen to fetch water, and Regulus grabbed Reiner's burning right hand without much hesitation, but to his surprise, he didn't feel any of the heat that a flame should have, no burning sensation, as if the flame itself had no temperature. When Sora ran back from the kitchen with the water, the flames in Reiner's hands had already dissipated on their own.
"This is ......" Reiner looked at the noble and delicate silver knife in his hand, and was speechless for a moment.
"It's really you, son of the gods of Valken!" Regulus understood in his heart.
In the days that followed, Reiner's anomalies became more and more frequent, not only did he have a lukewarm cold fire in his hands, but he also often spewed hot fireballs from his palms, burning several holes in the walls. Regulus knew that it was not the right thing to do for him to drag on in ignorance, and he was determined to tell him the truth.
One day in October, Regulus closed his stall early, called Reiner to a deserted alley, and said to him seriously: "Reiner, I have been hiding this secret from you for a long time, in fact, I don't want to do this, I am not your kind of dark elf, I am from the surface world." ”
"Ann, what are you kidding, I know I want to go outside, so make up a story to fool me, right?" said Reiner.
Regulus had no choice but to shed his Dark Elf disguise and return to his original form. He looked at Reiner, who was shocked, and continued, "I'm not Ann Iradan, my name is Regulus Mar Vodjanov, and I'm an advisor to the Human Army. He still concealed his identity as the god of war.
"Regulus, Human Army, Advisor, what the hell are you talking about?"
"I know it's hard to believe, but all of you have been tampered with memories, or rather your ancestors have been tampered with. You were also part of the earthly world 10,000 years ago, and because of the defeat of the war with the High Elves, you were forced to flee into the abyss of Zeller, away from all the strife of the earthly world. ”
"Why, why would anyone do this to us?"
"Maybe in order to let you forget your hatred and live a plain and happy life. Regulus replied, "The anomaly you've been burning in your body during this time is not a strange disease, but that you haven't been able to control your power perfectly. ”
"My power, what power can I have?"
"You are the son of the god of fire and craft, and your ancestor, the demigod Serim, is the first son of a god in the world and the closest to the god, who created everything on this continent. ”
"How the hell did you know all this?"
"I'm here to find your artifact, the Heart of Serim, to stop the High Elves of the earth and end the war that has been going on for decades. ”
"Cerrim's Heart?" Reiner was puzzled, so Regulus told him everything he knew, and admonished: "If one day you have the opportunity to awaken, you must restrain yourself from refusing the temptation, Valken has cursed you, if you awaken, you can gain greater power, but this whole continent and everything you cherish will be in vain!"
But before Reiner could wake up, everything he cherished had been ruined by himself.
One day, a strange voice suddenly sounded in Reiner's head, which persuaded him to accept all power, to persuade him to truly become the son of the god of fire and craft, and to gain supreme power. Remembering Regulus's advice, he rejected the voice's offer, and his power began to spiral out of control. He couldn't control his power, and he felt as if he was going to explode.
"Reiner, what's wrong with you, calm down! Calm down!" Sora hugged Reiner who was kneeling on the ground tightly, and Wright also ran over, grabbed his hand, and asked with a worried face, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"Whoa!!" Reiner let out a lion-like roar, and he finally couldn't control himself, and the power of fire within him exploded, burning his farm, his house, his wife and son to ashes in an instant.
Regulus arrived belatedly, and saw only the desperate face of Reiner kneeling in the pit.
"If I choose to awaken, can I save them?" asked Regulus, who had calmed down a few days later.
"Yes. Regulus said bluntly, "But you are only capable of saving the two of them, and all the humans on this continent, all the High Elves, and all your compatriots in the Abyss of Zeller will sink into the sea and die." ”
"So is this the choice between abandoning your family and betraying your whole family?" Reiner said, with a trill.
"I'm sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out like this......" As the god of war, he felt an emotion called guilt for the first time.
"I hate you. Reiner said blandly, "If it weren't for your presence, I wouldn't have known the hatred and humiliation of the Dark Elves, the Son of God and the Heart of Sylim, and my wife and children would not have died." We could have lived our lives in bliss, but you ruined it all. I'll go find the Heart of Cyrim, but I won't help you. One day, I will go to earth and make all those who have hurt us pay!"
The search for the heart of Cengrim ended in failure, Regulus got nothing, and broke the peace of the underworld, planting the seeds of hatred in the heart of Rainer Celem.
"Get the stones, and you'll naturally know the truth. Regulus's eyes darkened, and a phrase suddenly sounded in his head, which he felt a little familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had heard it. At this moment, a cool breeze rose behind him, and a force sucked him in, and he struggled constantly, but could not escape, and then his eyes lit up, and he saw the anxious faces of Luna and Kyales.
"How...... Why, am I dreaming?" Regulus slowly sat up from the ground, feeling as if he had been beaten up.
"Regulus, you're really alive! Our agreement isn't over yet, don't give me another death!" Luna said as she thumped him on the chest, causing him to gasp in pain. He turned his head to look at the other person closest to him, but Yalais no longer had the cold and terrifying aura of the last time they met, and his eyes were no longer full of anger and murderous intent. Her eyes were filled with tears, and she squeezed out a smile and said:
"Marruth, I've finally waited for you. ”
Regulus, who heard the name "Malruth", was stunned for a moment, and then replied a little coldly: "Do you finally remember......
"Damn!" said an echoing voice behind them, and when they looked back, they saw a cloud of green smoke gradually converging into a human form, but the man's appearance was still unclear, "There was no useful information at all, as if the brain was deliberately sealed, and an additional sentence was heard: 'Get the stone, and you will know the truth.'" 'What stone?' What truth, still not honest!!"
"Calm down, don't forget our agreement. Danko said to the Dream Demon God.
"If you want to see his dreams, it's good enough!" the dream god glared at Danko—at least the movements looked like glare—and Danke fell to his knees with a quick breath, and for a moment he was overwhelmed by the amount of information pouring into his head.
"Danko, you ......" Regulus recalled that he had just learned the truth about Danko Demon God before he lost consciousness, and he was about to step forward to continue questioning, but was stopped by Kyales: "Don't ...... now"
"Stone...... Stone ......," the dream god Shimus muttered, "Could it be the mysterious obsidian magic stone, a magic stone that even Lord Cehir can't see?"
"What are we going to do now, Lord Vermes, do you want to kill them all?" asked Nate Mayer, in a trembling voice from little Grady.
"Do you have what it takes?" sneered, "if you have the ability, you won't need me to do it myself." Heartless, you should have had enough, which side are you going to stand on now?"
"I'm ......" Dan Ke got up from the ground, he seemed to be stimulated by Regulus's memory, "I'll go with you, it's not time to fight again, we should retreat first and think about it in the long run." ”
"Then come with us to meet the other demon gods and discuss the plan!" A gust of wind swept up in Danko, enveloping both Danko and Knight Mel, and Danko looked at Regulus with a serious expression, and then looked in the other direction.
"Danko, what the hell are you now!" Regulus snarled as Danko disappeared from his eyes.
"Regulus, it's been a long time!" Randolph Serim squeezed out a jerky smile as he walked towards him, "It's been more than fourteen hundred years, I didn't think you were the god of war, no wonder our lives are not worth mentioning to you!"
"Randolph, so you're still alive. Regulus said with some indifference.
