Chapter Twenty-Eight: Only a Sigh
Chapter Twenty-Eight: Only Sighs
In an instant, the evil defender who had blocked countless attacks for Mino before was like papier-mΓ’chΓ©, and Mino's mother's pale and slender left hand was completely unstoppable, plunging straight into her son's chest.
Blood, madly spurted out of Mino's chest, sprayed on Mino's mother's face, body, hands everywhere, Mino felt black in front of him when that hand was inserted into his chest, and in an instant everything seemed to disappear, as if the soul was separated from the body, and then in the next second, he felt pain rushing in his body like a stormy wave, and the pain was so painful that he wanted to commit suicide, but at this time Mino's face showed an extremely bright smile.
Yes, he's laughing.
Mino could feel that the hand that pierced into his body paused for a moment when it touched his skin, Carlos had fallen to the ground, and everyone else nearby was also scared away, and he took the initiative to meet it with the idea of atoning for his mother's sins, and his mother could not be disturbed in any way when attacking, but her hand paused when it touched herself, what does this mean?
This shows that his mother's soul is still in his mother's body! Although he has become an undead, his mother is still alive, and his mother may be rescued like Tafa, and what is more worthy of joy, of course Mino's laughter, if it weren't for the fact that it is difficult to even breathe now, Mino even wants to laugh out loud.
"Ahem, Mom, welcome back. β
Regardless of his mother's blood on his face, Mino endured the severe pain, reluctantly moved forward little by little, coughing up blood while gently leaning on his mother's arms, as his mother did after returning from grocery shopping, hugging his mother's waist and whispering.
After hearing this, the movement of the blood on the mouth of Mino's mother **** stopped, and the right hand that was about to be inserted into Mino's body also stopped in mid-air, and then slowly placed it on Mino's back, as she used to do before.
In this way, Mino leaned into his mother's arms, and the two of them stood motionless on the walls of the war-torn town of Tassi, but no one or the undead dared to disturb them, as if a stone sculpture had been forgotten by everyone.
"Mino, my Mino, where are you. β
Although Mino was pierced in the right chest, and his heart was not destroyed and died directly, but after such a long time, even if his mother did not continue to attack, Mino, who was about to run out of blood in his body, was about to be unable to hold on, just when his eyes were dark and confused, he suddenly heard his sister's voice, which made the sudden change make the will that was about to be dissipated have been condensed anew.
"Let's go............ Hurry up ............"
Mino didn't know why Mina, who should have been running away for a long time, appeared here, and he didn't have the energy to think about these things because of his extreme lack of blood, he only knew that his mother had not fully recovered, and he could lose control and tear herself to pieces at any time, he didn't want his sister to die at the hands of his mother, so he forced his mouth to warn Mina.
But Mino's blood was so much that the sound of the words that came out of his mouth was not much louder than the cry of mosquitoes, and even the sound of Mino's own blood dripping on the ground could drown it out, not to mention that this was still in a chaotic battlefield, and Mina, who had not heard Mina's warning at all, found this side in this way.
"Mino, I've finally found you. Since this clearing is so special in this battlefield where battles are taking place everywhere, Mina was summoned after a while, and when she saw Mino's figure, Mina ran over happily, and then saw her mother holding Mino.
"Mom............ Mom, it's great that you're not dead, Mom, you're finally back!"
Seeing her mother, why did her dead mother reappear, why did she appear on this battlefield, why was there nothing around except Carlos lying on the ground, Mina didn't think about these things at all, she was frightened these days and was just subconsciously surprised by the appearance of her long-lost mother, and then ran up and hugged her mother from behind.
In the arms of Mino and Mina, a tear flowed from her eyes, and Mino's mother's stiff and stiff face gradually softened, she gently pulled out her left hand inserted into Mino's chest, held Mino's face, kissed him lightly on the forehead, and then whispered in Mino's ear.
"I'm sorry, my Mino Nuo. β
Removing a cross-shaped charm from his neck and hanging it around Mino's neck, Mino's mother reflexively hugged Mina, and after putting Mina, who was almost unconscious in blood, in Mina's arms, she flew into the mountains, and the other undead also stopped attacking at the same time, and then retreated into the mountains like a low tide.
Three days later.
"Mommy, don't go!"
Mino, who had been lying unconscious in bed after the battle that day, suddenly opened his eyes, sat up quickly, and shouted loudly as he reached out and grabbed the front.
"Mino, you lie down quickly, you are so seriously injured, and you are still doing such a drastic action, are you afraid that you will not die?"
Hearing such a loud noise, Mina, who was dozing off beside Mino's bed, also woke up, and looked at Mino, who suddenly sat up, Mina pressed Mina back to the bed half in surprise and half worried.
"Sister...... Sister, where is Mom, where has Mom gone?"
Ignoring the itching on his body and the tingling in his chest, Mino asked Mina eagerly as he scanned the room, trying to see the familiar figure in the room.
"Don't look, Mino, Mom is gone, Master Carlos says she went to the underworld through a spatial rift. β
"Then I'll go to the underworld to find my mother. β
With that, Mino lifted the quilt on his body and staggered towards the door, only to staggered and fell to the ground after taking a few steps.
"Mino, don't be like this, Mom forcibly closed the spatial crack before leaving, you can't reach the underworld, and even if the spatial crack is still there, you can't get by. β
Hurriedly helped Mino to lie back on the bed, and met Mino's eager eyes, and Mina, who was full of tears, choked up and said.
"But ......"
"There's nothing to do, the only thing you can do now is to lie in bed and recuperate. β
Mino was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by Carlos, who suddenly walked in.
"Your mother went to the underworld with all the wild undead in order to no longer harm the living, little guy, with your current body and strength, even if you go to the underworld, you will be sent to death, how can you go to your mother, and although your mother is gone, but your sister is still by your side, she has been staying by your bedside to take care of you these days, and her body is almost unable to support it, you are still so willful to make her worry about what a man should do?"
Listening to Carlos's words, Mino turned his head to look at Mina, looking at the exhaustion on his sister's face and the thick dark circles under her eyes, Mino hugged her with guilt.
"I'm sorry sister, it's all my fault that worries you. β
"It's okay, Mino, my sister can understand, it's good if you wake up, do you know how worried I am about you these days when you are asleep, I'm afraid that you won't wake up again, so what should I do alone." β
"I'm sorry to worry my sister, it's all Mino's bad"
Gently wiping away the tears from Mina's face, Mino gently rested his head on Mina's shoulder and apologized softly.
"Okay, now that Mino has woken up, Miss Mina, you've been tired for so long, it's time to go and rest, and I'll take care of you here. β
Although Mina still wanted to stay and take care of Mino, she had to rest under Carlos's persuasion and Mino's insistence.
"Lord Carlos, how is Lord Orr, he ............ Is it still there?
As soon as Mina left, Mino eagerly asked Carlos, thinking that the big man who took care of himself in every way and finally used his body to block the sword for himself was likely to never show that bright smile in front of him again, Mino's heart was gloomy, how he wished Carlos could tell him that Orr was still there. "We buried him after the battle the other day. Speaking of Orr, Carlos's voice also deepened. "It's all my fault, if I hadn't been so reckless in joining their fight, Orr wouldn't have died, it's all my fault. β
Hearing the last shred of hope cut off, Mino tapped his head and said with remorse. "I don't blame you, Mino, do you know why Orr took such good care of you, and was so bitter and remorseful when the bad news came to Tafa?" "Because he has a son, if he hadn't died, he would have been about the same age as you, and when he met you that day, Orr told us that if his little Mumu hadn't died, he would have been like you." "Orr's son, what's going on?"
Under Mino's questioning, Carlos told Orr's story.
It turned out that Orr was originally a genius warrior in a border city, and at that time he became a fourth-level warrior at a young age, with a beautiful wife and a lovely son, who could be described as high-spirited.
But the undead plague suddenly broke out in the city where he lived, it was a worse undead plague than the one in the town of Tassi, and the city where he lived soon fell, and his wife told him to take his son to a safe place before he died.
Orr endured the grief of his wife's death, ran with his son on his back, and finally got rid of the pursuit of the undead, but when he stopped to rest, he found that his son had a bone arrow stuck in his back, and he was about to die, he gave his son his son's favorite lollipop, and ran desperately to the nearest city with a church, but before he arrived, his son could not hold on to his back and died, and he still bit the candy that Orr stuffed into his mouth.
That's why that guy is a big man who likes to eat the kind of lollipops that only children eat, and every time he eats it, he cries while thinking about his son, so he always avoids us and hides from eating, not wanting us to see his weak side.
Later, he joined the Cult of the High God and devoted all his energy to studying healing arts, in order to make up for his son's regret that he died because he did not receive healing in time, and vowed to fight evil to the end and protect those he cared about.
"That's why his psionic weapon has such a name, he treats you as the embodiment of his own son, he saved you with his life, and he also saved Tafa, he fulfilled his regrets and vows, and he will leave with a smile on his face. β
"So you must live in good health, so that his efforts will not be in vain, and you can rest well. β
With that, Carlos used a recovery spell on Mino and left.
Lying in bed, Mino reminisced about his brief time with Orr these days, leaving only a long sigh that haunted his room.
