Lead-colored clouds covered the sky above Shilan Middle School, and thunderbolts rolled in the clouds like dragons and snakes.

The pouring rain poured down, and the entire coastal city was shrouded in a vast curtain of rain.

Lu Mingfei stood in front of the corridor with his schoolbag, watching his classmates being picked up by their parents one after another and disappearing into the rain.

Gradually, the noise around him slowly died down.

The space around him, which should have been crowded, became empty as the students left.

He had experienced many rainy days like this.

The parents he had hoped for had never come to pick him up.

On many rainy days like this, he would always break into the torrential rain alone with his schoolbag on his head.

He should have been used to such rainy days.

He's always been like that.

Any touch on a rainy day, he was always so familiar.

The coolness of the rain hitting the body, the breath in the wind, and the heartbeat in the rain all seem to follow the familiar melody and beat.

How to run under the trees and under the eaves to get less wet.

He knew exactly how to get home in the shortest time and what route to take.

He had already known the route home by heart.

He stood in this familiar corridor again, facing this familiar rainy day.

He was supposed to break into the rainstorm with his bag on his head as usual.

But this time, he didn't.

Lu Mingfei knew that this time, he couldn't go home.

Because he remembers everything.

He stood quietly in the hallway, where he had stood, looking at the rain in front of him.

In the midst of the rain, there was a man standing.

The other party was dressed in a neat and clean black suit, tied with a beautiful bow tie, and held a black folding umbrella in his hand.

Raindrops fall along the umbrella bones into rain curtains.

The umbrella curtain is slightly raised, and it can be seen that the fine bangs in the umbrella are swaying with the wind and rain.

The bangs swayed, revealing the golden pupils that were hidden in them.

Those golden eyes were as clear as burning golden glass.

Lu Mingfei saw the face that he once rejected and feared.

That's another him.

He thought he had killed the other party in his heart.

"I said we'd see each other again, and now, it's time to make a choice." The other party's voice was cold, ruthless, without a trace of temperature, like the coldest piece of ice.

"Make a choice, face yourself, only I can get you out of trouble and save our stupid brother." Lu Mingfei in a black suit is always so direct.

He waited here for a long time.

He knew that sooner or later there would be such a day.

"You seem a little upset to see me?" Lu Mingfei in a black suit held an umbrella, looked at himself in the corridor in the rain, and pulled out a touch of mockery on his lips, "Do you still have a choice?" ”

"There was a time when you could break into the rain with your bag on your head, leave everything behind, and hide yourself in the world you created, and don't care about anything."

"Now, are you still going to hide?"

"Lu Mingfei, you have nowhere to hide."

Lu Mingfei, who was in a black suit, slowly raised his hand, reached into the rain, and said to himself in the corridor, "If you've had enough, come back." ”

Lu Mingfei looked at the hand stretched out to him and was silent.

Lu Mingfei knew that as long as he held that hand, he would have the ability to solve all of this and solve all the problems caused by the World Tree.

However, Lu Mingfei also knew that once he held that hand, everything would disappear with it.

His hatred, his anger, will be vented on everyone indiscriminately.

Whoever it is has benefited from the scattering of the authority of the World Tree.

From the moment the World Tree collapsed, it was a betrayal of him.

Those who are alive, whether humans or dragons, benefit directly or indirectly.

He will not sympathize with any living being.

Thousands of years of hatred have been suppressed for too long.

"I am me, you are you." Lu Mingfei's eyes were lowered, and he stood quietly in the corridor, ignoring the palm that was waiting for him.

"What I have experienced, no matter how imperfect, is my life." Lu Mingfei said, "I don't want to be a monster who will only be covered in hatred. ”

"But you don't have a choice." Lu Mingfei, who was in a black suit, looked at him, his pupils were really like burning glass, as if he wanted to ignite the air.

"My authority is constantly disappearing, being taken back by the Mother Tree." Lu Mingfei in a black suit said, "You don't have time left, and when all our authority is taken back by the Mother Tree, everything you care about will no longer exist." ”

"Those who love you, those you love, will die with the disappearance of authority." Lu Mingfei in a black suit was like a demagogic demon, "Come back, for all you have been through, I can save the people we once loved." ”

Lu Mingfei shook his head.

He looked at the seemingly never-ending rain curtain, and suddenly missed Lu Mingze a little, "Do you know, once when I was sad and I was desperate, there was always someone like you who appeared in front of me today and brought me hope. ”

"I know he has bad intentions for me, I know he has his own plans, but his conditions are always too much for me to refuse."

"I always told myself that this was the last time I promised him, because he was a demon, a demon from the abyss, a demon who bewitched people's hearts."

"How is it possible for mankind to withstand the temptation of the devil?"

"So for a long time, I was always scared to see him, because for me, every time he appeared, it showed that I was going through a terrible catastrophe."

"Every time he appears, it always means that I will lose something, so for a long time, I was afraid to see him again"

Lu Mingfei looked at the black suit, his face was a little sad, "The devil who keeps bewitching me is the stupid brother in your mouth." ”

Now, he has long since fallen to the ground covered in bruises, and he does not know whether he is alive or dead.

"Huh? My stupid brother is getting kinder and kinder. The black suit was noncommittal, "But now, our stupid brother can't come to see you, and he can't help you." ”

"Right now, the only one who can help you is yourself." The black suit looked at Lu Mingfei, his eyes were cold, and his voice echoed in the rain curtain, "Lu Mingfei, you don't have time!" ”

"You can accept the stupid brother's conditions again and again, why can't you accept me? Can't accept your own? ”

As the rain fell, the sky began to crumble, and golden branches spread across the sky like fishing nets.

As the authority continued to pass and was taken back by the mother tree, Lu Mingfei's spiritual world began to collapse.

Once this world completely collapses, Lu Mingfei's ownership authority will be reclaimed.

What will become of that time, no one knows.

Facing the roar of the black suit, Lu Mingfei smiled.

"It's the same devil, but compared to you, Lu Mingze's devil's service is good, he can always give customers the most intimate service, he can always let customers achieve their goals first, and then collect compensation, can you?"

"If you can, I can promise you."

Lu Mingfei's smile was a little sad, "But, you can't!" ”

"You just need to devour me!"

"You can't give me anything!"

"I'd rather it all be over than ruin it all with my own hands!

That's why he's back, that's why he's been here.

"Also, when Lu Mingze came to see me, he never just let me get drenched in the rain, he would throw away the umbrella in his hand and drench with me!"

Bang!

The expression in the black suit became hideous, and he smashed a punch into Lu Mingfei's face.

Lu Mingfei stumbled and fell into the rain.

"What does it take for you to come back?" The black suit was furious, pressed against Lu Mingfei's body, and roared by his collar.

"Think about it, the person you care about is going to die, and everything you do will disappear, is it worth it?"

The rain drenched the two like two mad dogs biting each other.

"So what can I do? Why am I to fulfill you, and not to you? Lu Mingfei kicked the black suit in the stomach and kicked him away, "I'm a bully, right?" Yes, there were many things I didn't dare to do, or even dare to speak. ”

"But so what, now, I just want to be perfect!"

For himself, and for those he loves.

The black suit pounced on Lu Mingfei again, and the two scuffled together.

"You don't have the ability, you just dodge, everything you do is so ridiculous, so naïve, how can you master this power?"

"You don't deserve it, you don't deserve to be a king, you don't deserve to have this right!"

"You don't have the right to use this right, but you don't have the heart to have this right!"

"Only I am the real owner!"

"You still retain the heart of a human being, why should a person like you!"

As the world collapsed step by step, the black suit became hideous, and it bit Lu Mingfei's neck, tearing it hard, tearing off a large mouthful of flesh and blood.

As a result, red blood gushed out from Lu Mingfei's wound, and the stagnant water under his body suddenly stained red.

"Mine, everything you have belongs to me, I want to take back everything that belongs to me!"

The black suit was completely crazy, biting Lu Mingfei one bite at a time, trying to devour Lu Mingfei little by little.

Blood stained the black suit into a real demon.

Lu Mingfei lay down in the crimson water, looking at the gradually crumbling sky, watching the golden branches weaving intertwined, watching the world slowly disappear, but his heart was surprisingly calm.

The hideous demon roared in the rain, venting his unwillingness, venting his anger.

The quiet boy lies quietly in the stagnant water, as if he has become one with the world and has become a part of this world.

"Why? Why! The blood-stained black suit questioned Lu Mingfei, "No one cares about you now, why do you still work so hard to defend them?" ”

"Those who have been stripped of their authority are dying, and those who are alive, those you care about, how can they think of you at this moment?"

"Last time, there was Eri Uesugi looking for you and showing you the way, this time, they are all dead, no one will come to you again, no one can find your way in the lost way!"

"Even if you used to be an important senior sister, she has already forgotten you at this moment."

"Lu Mingfei, is it really worth it all?"

"What have you gained by fighting your life and death here?"

"Lu Mingfei, wake up! It's over, it's all over! Let me take the lead, and I'll get you back everything you care about! ”

"Everything is yours, whichever woman you like, I can snatch it back for you, we can do anything!"

The roar of a black suit in my ears was noisy.

Lu Mingfei didn't seem to hear it.

His gaze fell from the shattered and crumbling sky back to the college, and fell on the big characters hanging on the wall of Shilan Middle School, remembering the way he had come, and laughing silently.

His heart turned out to be barren, and it was the road under his feet and the people he met that filled it.

Doesn't anyone care?

Perhaps.

But at least he did everything he wanted to do.

Lu Mingfei's vision began to blur.

Suddenly it began to rain warmly.

The rain was a little bright.

Bright red, not the coldness of rain, but with a hint of warmth.

The red rain fell on his body and soaked into his body, bringing wisps of warmth to his cold body.

The roar of the black suit in my ears had stopped for some time.

An umbrella appeared in Lu Mingfei's blurred vision and stopped beside him, shielding him from the pouring rain from the sky.

Where did the umbrella come from?

Did you figure it out in a black suit?

Lu Mingfei tried hard to open his eyes, so that his vision became clear.

What caught his eye was not the nasty face of the black suit, but a faint strand of blonde curls.

Then, a familiar face.

The face was very pale, bloodless, and dotted with some fine scales, which looked a little more seductive.

That's a trait of Deadpool.

That was Su Xiaoqiao's face.

Seeing Su Xiaoqiao, Lu Mingfei was stunned for a moment.

"I'm looking for you, I'm afraid you'll get lost." Su Xiaoqiao said.

Obviously, it is half a world away, and there is also the bitterness and hardship of the present world and the Nibelungen, which is almost impossible for an ordinary person, but she said it so calmly and naturally.

It's as easy as going to the next door on the weekend.

"Sending you home?" Su Xiaoqiao stretched out her hand towards Lu Mingfei, just like she once asked Lu Mingfei if he wanted to send him home.

Lu Mingfei held Su Xiaoqiao's hand, just like he held Su Xiaoqiao and pulled her up on the rainy night when Su Xiaoqiao was chased and killed by a depraved half-blood.

It's just that Su Xiaoqiao at that time was trembling, panicked and palpitating.

And now Su Xiaoqiao is no longer the girl who is so scared that she can't help herself.

Her quest forces her to be strong to a point she never thought possible.

But he also paid the due price for this, the price of burning his life.

She said she hated the sense of depravity, the ugliness of looks.

In the end, she became what she used to say she hated.

"Okay." Lu Mingfei said.

Su Xiaoqiao held an umbrella and supported Lu Mingfei, who was covered in blood, and walked towards the school gate.

The black suit looked at the two people who were drifting away in the rain, knelt alone in the stagnant water, and laughed mockingly.

I don't know whether to mock Lu Mingfei or mock myself.

The rain hit him and washed away the blood from his body and the blood from the ground.

His figure began to become illusory, disappearing little by little.

"Is that why you've been holding it out?"

"What a ridiculous reason, you can never become a real king, you don't have the consciousness to become a king!"

The black suit let out a final unwilling roar and disappeared completely.

With the disappearance of the black suit, the world stopped collapsing, and the authority was attributed to Lu Mingfei, who was riddled with holes, and the wounds on his body healed quickly.

The rain was still falling, but neither Lu Mingfei nor Su Xiaoqiao spoke.

Su Xiaoqiao held an umbrella, and Lu Mingfei followed her like this, walking towards the road she came. (End of chapter)
