Theresia never imagined that one day Xia Ming would appear in front of her with such an image.

Wearing the iron mask of the Spiral King, his body exudes a large and terrifying, cold and evil aura that crawls like a snake.

- That's the psionic energy she'd fought before.

And this strange woman riding on Xia Ming's shoulder......

Although she had never seen the appearance of an evil dragon in human form, just by the dragon horns and dragon tail and wings that were revealed on her body, Theresia could guess who she was!

But why......

Aren't the dragons our enemies?

It has created countless tragedies, it has taken you captive, and it has sinned heinously.

But why does it bring you to me, why does it sit on you so intimately, and it looks so harmonious?

Xia Ming, why are you ...... Not resisting?

Is it just because she's older than me?

Theresia's gaze fell on the two huge sins above Xia Ming's head.

Of course she knew that it couldn't be such a superficial reason, she just didn't understand, she just didn't want to accept it, she couldn't believe it.

She thought of something that terrified her terribly, from the dragon-like spiritual energy that emanated from Xia Ming's body.

Wickedness.

The moment this word came out, she deleted it from her mind and rejected it.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

How could Xia Ming be assimilated and corrupted by the evil dragon's spiritual energy and evil, and degenerate into the evil dragon's henchmen?

He has the power to purify all evil and unclean, and he said that he would always be by my side, how could he be ...... all at once

On the ground, Rose, the Spiral King, collapsed unblinded on the dusty and gravel floor.

Next to his corpse, Theresia looked shocked and dazed, and her heart was shocked.

"Theresia, why haven't you seen me for a while, and you don't know me?"

Xia Ming looked at the girl with a stunned expression, chuckled and took the initiative to ask.

His voice was slightly soft, but it was not like a beautiful spark floating out of a stove, no longer giving her a warm feeling, but like a mockery, like patches of snow falling on a winter night wrapped in a biting chill.

The eyes that looked through the cold mask were gentle and ruthless, as if the surface of the lake that was originally sparkling and floating with the dark fragrance of spring water condensed into ice, freezing and killing all the warmth of spring.

Theresia was shocked to find that the way he looked at her looked at her, it seemed to ...... There is no love anymore.

No, it can't be!

This is not true!

"Xia Ming, you...... Why are you with the dragon? ”

She clenched her fingers, and her voice became hoarse, as if a thousand knives were cutting her vocal cords.

"Ah, do you recognize who Xiaobai is?"

Xia Ming smiled and held Xiaobai's buttocks, without denying it.

Little White ......

He had even given her such an affectionate nickname......

Theresia's teeth clenched suddenly, her heart was cold for a moment, and she suddenly raised her sword at the evil dragon above Xia Ming's head.

"You brought her here to create an opportunity for me to ...... Kill her, right? ”

She asked again, walking towards Xia Ming step by step, still holding the last chance of luck in her heart.

Yes, how could Xia Ming be assimilated and degraded by the spirit energy of the evil dragon, he must be pretending, acting, paralyzing the evil dragon, and creating a chance for me to kill her, after all, she is too capable of escaping.

Yes, it must be like this, we haven't played this kind of pretend game before, Xia Ming's appearance is pretended, this is a game, a game he prepared for me to kill the evil dragon.

As long as I walk over, as long as I raise my sword and aim it at the dragon's head, the game is mine and he wins, everything will be over, everything will be ......

"Theresia, put your sword down, I won't allow you to hurt Xiaobai. Trying to kill her unless you kill me first. ”

For a moment, it was as if a huge blizzard had drowned her.

The endless coldness seemed to freeze her heart and the whole world.

The howling cold wind that blew in from outside the building was like thousands of flying knives smashing over her body, and they finally condensed into a sword in Xia Ming's hand, a snow-white, ice-condensed sword.

Xia Ming slowly raised his sword and aimed it at her.

"Stop."

There was no longer any mildness in his eyes, only a clear murderous intent and coldness that made her feel frightened and collapsed.

Flame and Ice, Sword of Red Flame and Sword of Ice.

"Don't force me to sword you, Theresia."

The man who had always supported her, the man who would play childish games with her, her beloved, raised his sword against her.

The tone is cold, and the eyes are resolute.

Xia Ming...... Raised a sword against her?

The eyes clearly see such a fact playing out in front of their eyes, but the brain is chaotic, tangled and painful, refusing to accept such a reality.

Theresia couldn't believe it.

The fear and haze in her heart grew stronger and stronger, and Theresia asked tremblingly:

"Xia Ming, this ...... That's not true, is it? How could you possibly be a companion of the evil dragon, you obviously ...... You have the power to purify all evil and uncleanness......"

"But dear Theresia, have you forgotten that there is a price to be paid for the use of my powers?"

Xia Ming sighed, "Light can dispel darkness, but when the endless darkness rushes like a tide to the faint candle flame, engulfing and wrapping it, the light that is completely wrapped in darkness is just another piece of darkness." ”

"What the Spiral King said before he died is right, this world is so imperfect, not idealistic, only the law of the jungle, the endless darkness of exploitation and exploitation. Even if someone can try to light a little fire, no one can always hold that little light to completely illuminate this darkness. ”

"Either burn yourself and die, or embrace the darkness and become another dragon."

"Theresia, unfortunately, even though I have the ability to purify evil, my tiny light can't even illuminate the whole world, and I can't even burn out Xiaobai's psionic energy. So, I chose to join, I chose to follow the spiral and the rules, and I became a part of it. ”

"I'm sorry, Theresia, but in the future, this road, maybe, can only be walked by you alone."

But how can such a fact be acceptable to Theresia?

"No, it can't be! This is not true! You must be lying to me, you must be acting, and when I am really sad and desperate, I can jump out and say that I lost, right?

"Xia Ming, I won't be fooled, I won't fall for the trick, I'm a game master with a 100% win rate, I won't lose to you......"

"Theresia, aren't you born with the ability to sense the kindness and malice of others towards you?"

Xia Ming interrupted her words, and the corners of her mouth slowly expanded, revealing a teasing smile that made Theresia's heart chill.

"Then please tell me, is the me you feel in your heart now being kind or malicious towards you?"

Theresia was struck by lightning, and her hand trembling weakly, and the sword of Red Flame almost fell to the ground with a thud.
