Chapter 81 Giving for Happiness
Edward was not a member of the Exorcism Society, so he was not qualified to go to the cathedral with Arthas to receive the reward, besides, he was the Demon King, and the lecture hall was a forbidden place that he could not set foot in for the rest of his life, let alone walk in to accept the reward, and before he could touch the door, he would have been cut into flesh by countless sharp knightly swords.
Therefore, he could only choose to stay and watch the thin girl leave his side.
She's sure she'll be back, though, because their plan failed.
As he was leaving, Edward, Alsace's depressed eyes, was clear. Although Alsace won the championship as he wished and became the top talent in the mainland, he no longer has to bear the words "incompetent, incompetent, inactive".
However, he was not happy at all. Because his plan failed completely.
He thought that if he pushed Emilia to the forefront, their enemies would be unstoppable, and he thought that if he used his brain a little and set a rudimentary trap, the enemy would sharpen their heads and get in.
He thought that he had guessed all the cause and effect, and that he could surpass his big brother and accomplish what Lance couldn't.
But the result?
Edward understood that he had lost, and he had lost badly, which was why he looked at himself with that frustrated look.
Having said so much, and thinking that he had great wisdom above all men, he must have felt a pain worse than death when Arthas fell from the altar of fiction.
Knock knock.
Even though the door was open, there was a knock.
A beautiful girl stood by the door, clasped her fingers and tapped lightly on the door, attracting the attention of the lost pervert with a thumping sound.
"Night?"
"Master, you probably won't blame the night for stalking you. Ye said as a matter of course, without the slightest apology.
"Huh. Except for a bitter smile, Edward only had a bitter smile.
What's the point of blaming the night?
"Did you hear that?" asked Edward.
"Master, if you answer no, will you be happier?"
"Probably not ......"
"In that case, I don't bother to lie at night. That's right, master, you heard all the conversations you had with the brave on night. Night nodded and admitted it openly.
"Oh. Edward replied indifferently, and then asked curiously, "Night, after listening to our chat, do you have anything to say to me?"
"Master, should Ye have something to say to you?" Ye asked rhetorically.
“...... Shouldn't there be?"
"Yes. Without continuing to prevaricate, Ye paused and then said, "Master, you have finally succeeded, congratulations." ”
"Congratulations?"
"Yes, master, congratulations. You've recovered your lost memories, you've protected the doomed Emilia, and you've succeeded. Night tried to the corners of her mouth and make a smile that could be considered a smile, "You have accomplished your mission, you have done what you could not do in the other world, and you have also won her heart and become her hope to live." Isn't that enough to congratulate?"
"Hope, ......" as if enchanted, Edward whispered silently.
"Master, what are you going to do next?"
"yes, what do I do?"
Now, Edward was a little melancholy.
[Protect her, this time]
The voice that once haunted his heart has now become a dispensable joke, because he has done it.
He thought that he needed to gamble his life and everything to complete the impossible mission in this strange world, but he was wrong.
The so-called mission has been accomplished, so he no longer has anything worth gambling on.
If the lost Emilia needs to find a reason to live, a hope, a solid shoulder to cry on, then why doesn't Edward need it?
"Master, since you have completed your mission, then, go back with Night. ”
"Where are you going?"
"Back to the Demon King's Castle, as before - you and Night, two people. Night walked over, sat down beside Edward, took his hand and whispered, "Master, no, Lord Demon, your adventure is over, and we should go back." ”
It's time to go home.
"It's over, ......"
"Yes, it's over. ”
"Night?"
"What. ”
"I'm a little uncomfortable. Holding Night's hand in turn, Edward smiled and said, "Let's go out for a walk." ”
"Hmmm......"
Bang.
Close the door, leaving the empty room isolated from the world.
Plain, his adventure seems to end like this......
==================
Hogg House, the Wild Bear Tribe.
"I'm the Headmaster of Hogg House, Kane. An old man with a childish face walked up to the stage.
Now that the game is over, it's time for the Headmaster of Hogg House to tell you the secret of their victory.
"The Exorcist Salvation Society won the championship on behalf of Hoag House, and I was happy, really, happy. ”
Kane curled the corners of his mouth, his long beard swaying from side to side in the breeze.
"To be honest, they won the championship and it had nothing to do with me. ”
There were a large number of students sitting in the audience, and they were listening intently to Principal Kane's speech.
"What they get today is a reward for their hard work. ”
"They were lucky, very lucky. Because there are many, many people who have worked as hard as them, or even harder than them, but in the end, they have not achieved anything. ”
"It's a shame that there is only one champion. ”
At this, Kane's tone became a little sad.
Ignoring the mood of the students in the audience, he told the story he wanted to tell himself.
"I have a student who is a very stubborn girl, very beautiful, but a little stupid, and is often called an idiot. She doesn't like to laugh, she is not good at communicating with people, and she doesn't know what an ideal is and what is giving. ”
"She loves swords, so she practiced hard and eventually became a good swordsman. ”
She likes to help the weak, so she bravely rushed to the enemy, and finally became a hero admired by everyone. ”
"She used to work hard, very hard, but in the end she was betrayed and left with nothing. ”
"Why, why is life so cruel?"
"I think a lot...... We are not greedy, we just want to get the happiness that should belong to us, that's all, it's a simple wish, but why does fate want to work against us?"
"I don't know, presumably, she doesn't know either......"
Still, she didn't stop. ”
"She still practiced her swordsmanship, even if she couldn't regain her former strength, she still helped those in need, even if she was no longer a glorious hero. ”
"My students, I feel ashamed of myself. ”
Kane stopped talking.
He glanced at the confused students in the audience, smiled in relief, and then turned his head to look at the principals from the other houses sitting behind him.
This scene is familiar, he seems to have seen it somewhere.
"Perhaps, she understood this before I did. ”
Continuing his speech, Kane's voice was like a cry.
"For the sake of happiness, we work hard, and in the end we may be fruitful, or we may be betrayed by fate like her and have nothing. However, if we are not willing to work hard and do not give, then happiness will not come into our lives for no reason. ”
"We got it wrong at the beginning. We don't pay for happiness, but pay, just for happiness. ”
"I hope that my student can be truly happy. Thank you all for the above ......"
With a deep bow, ignoring the thunderous applause from the audience, Kane silently walked off the stage and left without looking back.
The Exorcist Society won the championship, and he got his wish and stood on the podium, speaking as the victor, announcing to everyone the greatness and glory of their Hogg House.
In this way, Hogg House will become famous, and it is just around the corner to return to the throne of the first academy in the continent.
But it doesn't matter......
As he himself said, he wanted his students to be happy - he had previously made three prophecies with a crystal ball that Angelina had secretly bought.
In the first prophecy, he stood in front of the much-anticipated podium, prouder than the presidents of all other colleges. On stage, he talked endlessly, talked and laughed, and his style was incisive.
The first prophecy has come true.
It was a joy he couldn't ask for, but he wasn't happy at all. Because, there are two more prophecies......
The third prophecy fails, the crystal ball explodes, and everything in the future, he doesn't know.
As for those who succeeded, the second prophecy ......
In the second prophecy, he watched a blood-soaked tragedy - the brave fell to the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead, and the person holding her and holding a blood-stained dagger in his hand was the guy named **Dehua.
He is the Demon King.
If the first prophecy is true, his second prophecy should also be true, right?
"Amilia, although you are not as good as Vilvette, although I don't agree with you, I still hope that you can be happy......"
The snowflakes on the side of the road, silently melting, turning into water and mud, use their humble wreckage to welcome the next season.
Spring is coming. (To be continued.) )
