Volume 5 The Return of the King 318 Light and Shadow
Light is a great thing. But I don't know what it is.
It illuminates the outside world, it brings warmth, it allows everything to grow. It seems to be selfless, and everything exists because of it. And most importantly, it is also a sword that pierces darkness, giving people the strength and hope to overcome difficulties.
In the presence of light, darkness will be cut by light, and darkness has no power to resist. Especially when the dawn comes, the light of the rising sun pierces the darkness, allowing the earth to dispel the black shadow that envelops everything in an instant and return to light.
I also had a great desire for light. Sunshine, moonlight, starlight, and even fire! But I found a problem, the reason why light exists is not because of the light itself, but because of the darkness that it pierces.
The light...... What is it?
How did the light come from? Why does it exist? If there is no darkness, is there any light? In that case, would the existence of light still be meaningful?
When I saw Alonsos. I was shocked when Master Fao showed the light to heal others, curious and overwhelmed by the soft power. When I saw Uther show his strong side, I was struck by its unrivaled strength. People believe in the Light because of death, because of fear, because of healing, because of hope. People put their best hopes in the Light, the weak hoping for the strong, and the incapable looking for refuge.
I think the reason why those human beings chose to believe in the Light when it did not come to earth is because of ...... Longing, because of hope! Even though they may not be protected and favored by the Light for the rest of their lives, they still choose to believe. After all, they have no choice, after all, the laws of human society do not allow for the existence of other beliefs.
I've felt it, from the first contact to the absence of it, to being ...... Complete infection.
That's all I can think of...... Infect. I don't know what the power of the Light was to dispel the darkness from my body during the battle at the Chapel of Light's Wishes, and I did feel its presence in the days that followed, and I benefited from it. I'm very happy to have this kind of power, and it's really lucky to have this kind of power in human society. I don't know how...... In fact, I have not been very steady.
How do you describe this?
I...... It's tangled.
Like I want to be a good person, but ...... But my heart is tangled in some messy things, which makes me a little suspicious of being a good person and doing good deeds.
The Light is the same, and when I summon it, I can feel it responding to me, and the response is strange. Call your family, they answer or don't, but you know they're there, you call your dog, it responds to you, you know it's there! But the Light is not, I ...... I'm not sure he's or not, I'm not sure it's going to respond to me. So every time I call on the Light, I ...... It seems that they are all thirsting.
I'm thirsty!
Yes, it's thirst! Do you know what craving is? It's like...... The beggar holds out his hands to you!
"Holy Light have mercy on me!"
"Holy Light bless!"
"The Light gives me strength!"
Reverent...... All those who believe in the Light must be pious. Believe with all your heart and serve. Only in this way can you get the favor of the Light, and only in this way can you get what you want, but the premise must be ...... Reverent!
But...... Am I religious? What was the reason for my Light? Am I all for the common people at that time? I...... Is my heart really full of pity? Am I really full of love?
So why does it favor me?
"Answer me! Respond to me! I roared in anger. I don't want to be with that monster, I don't want to be like that. But it didn't respond, it didn't respond, it didn't hear my call, I didn't know what was happening, I didn't know why. The kind of ...... that has been prepared for a long time in my heart Disappointment has finally been fulfilled again today.
Why is it so long to prepare? As a pessimistic person, I am very sensitive, and I will automatically keep a certain distance from the things I am exposed to whether it is good or not, whether it is beneficial to me, whether it can be used for myself, and whether I can really control and use it completely. It's like the Light.
It gives me strength, but it doesn't belong to me entirely, it's something I crave. So I instinctively be ready to lose it at any time, and I'm ready for it, and when I lose it, I'm not too sad, too disappointed. But I still overestimated myself, and it still makes me hesitate, makes me confused, and makes me angry.
"You're still resisting." It says.
"I'll kill you all! I can't spare you! ”
"Why do you have to work so hard?" Its voice is soft. "But...... I love to see you struggling, useless...... Struggle. ”
"Shut up!"
"When suspicion arises, the outcome doesn't matter." It says, "You don't love it." ”
"Shut up!"
"All this you do, it doesn't feel anything, it doesn't even feel sorry." There was a hint of mockery in its voice.
"I swear I'm going to poke you in the eye with a steel drill!"
"The more you struggle, the happier I get, and I've even seen what your future looks like." It says: "Any change is for progress, and progress is for a better tomorrow." ”
"What are they doing!"
"Don't you know who they are?"
"Warlock!"
"Such a shallow word. They are all people who have been in contact with the shadows, people who have blended into the darkness, and they have all felt what emptiness is, and they have also felt what emptiness is. It said, "I pity the Twilight people and make them feel the same thing, they are all thirsty for power, what are they trying to do for the rest of their lives?" Survival, and survival depends on strength. ”
"What are they doing!"
"They're healing you!"
"They're also from the Twilight cult?"
"No, they're not! Of course they weren't, but they were doing the same thing as the Twilight Cult. ”
"What did you say!"
"The power of the void in you was once suppressed by a ray of light, but now ...... They will open the seal that suppressed you. ”
"What will happen!"
"Hah, I don't know, but didn't I tell you? I'll see. ”
Two more warlocks came from the side, a man and a woman, the fellow named Zeflost, who was speaking a language I didn't understand, when suddenly purple-red lightning began to appear around his body, and the electricity began to surround his body and collide violently on both sides of his body. Suddenly, two figures appeared beside him. The two things that appeared were all red, and even the bodies of those two things were still burning. The pointed ears, green eyes, and big head resemble goblins.
The flames on these two things went out when they appeared, and after they were extinguished, they were babbling something out of their mouths. Zeffrost pointed at me, and the two guys came to me, staring at me, their eyes full of curiosity and scrutiny, and their big mouths purring all the time.
The two of them put their hands on me, and suddenly they screamed, and I began to glow red. The two warlocks also began to cast spells, and some strange halos began to appear around the two guys' bodies, and those colorful halos were like a protective shield that enveloped the two of them inside. I watched a huge shadow appear behind them, and then the shadow began to materialize, and a huge dark blue monster appeared behind them, but the first thing that appeared was to slap the two warlocks in front of them.
But before their claws could touch their bodies, they were bounced away, and the huge blue fat man looked at the two people in front of them, and suddenly the two of them turned around, and a golden light flashed, and the hands of the two blue giants were pulled together at once, and two huge golden halos appeared between their wrists.
The two blue giants began to roar, but soon calmed down. When they calmed down, the tethered hands opened automatically, just as if they were wearing two bracelets. Then two blue giants walked up to my head and feet.
"What's that!"
"Watch well, don't talk." It says.
The two warlocks suddenly cast a spell on the two blue giants, and the blue fat man screamed and suddenly disappeared, and the two golden bracelets that had been on their wrists fell to the ground, and at that moment I felt like a stream of water appeared in my body, from the top of my head down my back and spine to the base of my tail, from the perineum to near the genitals, and then from the groin along the inner thighs to the feet.
And at this moment, two red imps also screamed and the doctor disappeared in front of me, and I suddenly felt that my body began to heat again, as if the blood in my body began to flow, I have not experienced this feeling for a long time. There's water flowing between my veins, and the feeling of that water flowing is really good! But the bad thing is that in some places, you can clearly feel that the water does not move when it reaches a certain place, and it can't go down.
"What's going on?"
It ignored me.
I suddenly felt that my body seemed to be much more comfortable, and my strength was regaining! Is my body recovering? The warlocks began to chant words that I didn't understand at all, and the voices were unpleasant, the voices of the male orcs were thick, and the voices of the female orcs were very harsh. Their voices were very synchronized, and the water inside my body seemed to be flowing more and more intensely.
My neck suddenly gained some strength, and as I twisted my neck to look at them, I saw blood oozing from the skin on the surface of my body, seeping from under my already charred and chapped skin, and then being sucked away by a force that flowed between the cracks in my skin. Looking down, the exposed bones were also covered in red blood, which made me overjoyed.
I stared at this spectacle with great joy in my heart.
"You're going to get a new lease of life." The voice reappeared. "The Shadow is not incurable, what the Light can't do, but the Shadow has countless ways."
Honestly, I don't care anymore at this point.
But the sorcerers' spells seemed to have stalled, and I heard Zefloster's cry, and he let the screams intensify with all his might. But I could feel their initial strength fade and the rushing blood began to slow down.
"Can they!" I said eagerly.
"Can't!" The voice said.
"Think of a way!" I commanded. "Quick!"
"I've got a solution, Son of the Void, are you ready?" It says, "Prepare to meet your ...... Destiny. ”
