Chapter 32: Desperate Love I
Only those who have truly loved can experience the fear, pain, and endless sadness of losing a loved one.
Di Xue once faced the fear of Taylor's life and death, and at that time he imagined how painful and sad he would be if Taylor died.
He was the queen who mourned the death of his beloved mother when he was young, although the two kinds of love are not the same, but the emotions of that love are the same, and the sadness is the same and the same.
As Balthus kneels in front of Freya's bones and weeps, Descher realizes Balthus's emotion, the grief of the painful loss of a loved one.
Di Xue didn't know why Balthus, the primeval demon lord, loved Freya so much, but he knew that he must love her.
......
......
Freya fell into a long memory in the words of Di Xue.
For tens of thousands of years, she has been imprisoned with him in this secret space, in this stone statue.
A stone statue and a dry skeleton have looked at each other like this for tens of thousands of years.
She didn't know what earth-shaking changes had taken place in the outside world of Lu Dao, and she didn't want to know that Lu Dao, the memories of Tai Gu were enough for her to be confused.
It was her glorious years, and it was her youthful youth.
She had heard of the title of Dragon Demon since she was a child, and in the Terran tribe at that time, Balthus was a name that could stop children from crying.
The dragon demon Balthis reigns over the world, and people of all races and tribes must submit to him, dig up the mines for him, build him beautiful palaces, and make gold and silver furniture for him.
He connived at the burning and looting of his subordinates, and he was even more tyrannical and unscrupulous, in short, he was an abominable tyrant.
Freya hated Balthis since she was a child, because of him, she didn't have enough food and clothing every day, and her parents had to work as coolies, sweating and mining in the dark pit every day.
She and her people of the Terran tribe prayed daily for the gods to perform miracles to end the tyrant's rule.
In fact, not only the Terran tribes, but all the other tribes of the hundred tribes are also praying like this, and of course, the gods and demon gods are not unheard of their prayers.
However, even the most powerful gods of the Celestial God Clan and the Demon God Clan had no way to take Balthus in the mortal realm.
Balthus is a descendant of the dragon clan and the demon god clan, he has the physical power of the dragon and the god talent of the demon god, taking into account all the advantages of both races.
In the Divine Realm, Balthus is not the opponent of the powerhouses of the Protoss who have existed for countless thousands of years, but in the Mortal Realm, no matter how powerful the existence is, it will be suppressed by the laws of the Great World Realm.
No matter how powerful a god general is, after coming to the mortal realm, he will be limited to the critical point where the mortal realm is allowed to use the most powerful force.
With the same amount of power at their disposal, no Protoss was willing to face the Dragon Demon Balthus, who had all the advantages of the two races.
Balthus also proved with his brilliant record that in the mortal realm, he can defeat ...... Even killing the Protoss who are stronger than him, even if it is a siege, will not pose a threat to him.
As a result, the gods and demon gods began to look for another kind of power that could deal with Balthus in the mortal realm.
Freya couldn't remember how old she was when she met the messenger of the Celestials.
All she remembered was that the gods came down to their tribe with their white wings flapping, and everyone knelt down to pray to the gods.
The gods held golden things in their hands, and all the people of Yao couldn't open their eyes.
She was the only one staring at the golden glow, and Freya felt as if it was watching her.
Then, the object held by the god suddenly broke free from the god's hand and flew towards her.
She looked at the long scroll in her hand like gold leaf, and she was at a loss.
The gods told her that it was the Brilliant Spell Dawn of Light, and that she was the Terran Guardian.
From then on, Freya stepped out of the Terran tribe that she had not left since she was born, and began her journey of conquest.
Ten years, or twenty years, or more, tens of thousands of years have passed, and Freya can't remember, or maybe she doesn't want to remember, that the days of fighting are boring, and every day is endless...... Slaughter.
The gods taught her martial arts, the demon gods instructed her in magic, and the gods gave her artifacts and said to her: "You are the guardian of the human race, and your bloodline is your destiny, and you are destined to end the tyrannical rule of Balthus and the evil life of the dragon and demon." ”
So, she grew up in battle, she was glorified for killing Balthus's men, and she made it her goal in life to destroy Balthus.
She was also confused, because her hands were stained with more blood than Balthus.
But the people cheered for her, and all the creatures called her a hero, convincing her that what she was doing was right.
When she thought she was strong enough, she challenged Balthus.
The first decisive battle with Balthus...... She failed, badly, but Balthus did not kill her.
Balthus just smiled sarcastically at her, and then returned to his palace, Freya realized that in his eyes she was nothing more than an ant, and he didn't think he would pose a threat to him, so he didn't bother to kill her any more.
So she continued to cultivate, to fight, just to become stronger, she looked for all the well-known powerhouses of the mortal world to fight, just to improve herself from the battle.
Until, she began to fight with the gods and demon gods, and the strong people of the Protoss who had taught her were no longer her opponents.
People called her the goddess of war, however, Freya knew that the god of war still couldn't defeat Balthus.
She challenged him again and again, when she thought she was good enough to defeat him.
Then she was beaten and bruised by him again and again, but she never gave up on her goal.
Because she felt that her efforts were paying off, because she was getting less and less injured until she was no longer hurt, and she was more and more able to hurt him and pose a threat to him.
Until...... She was finally able to draw with him...... Eventually, she was finally able to defeat him and seal him away.
However, in the midst of thousands of years of loneliness, Freya wondered countless times, is she really better than Balthus?
Ten thousand years was enough time for her to think about anything, and she had already understood that Balthus did not rule the entire continent back then, and it was not that he was incapable of dominating the continent.
The few so-called mortal supreme races that did not submit to him were nothing in his eyes.
He kept the kings because he was too lonely, and he didn't want all those who could fight him to die or submit to him.
That is the loneliness of the truly strongest, except for those who have been invincible in the world, they will not understand.
He didn't kill her because he wanted to have one more opponent who could fight against him, otherwise, his life would be too lonely.
It's just that Freya has wondered about that question several times in the past ten thousand years, is it really her own strength that she can defeat and seal Balthus?
Because the last thing Balthus said to her before he turned into a stone statue was, "Do you really want me to die so much?"
Since when did Balthus look into her eyes...... Different?
Why did he look at himself more and more like an enemy, an opponent?
Why did he never give his best in the last battle?
For what...... Before he turned into a stone statue, he wanted to ask her that sentence?
For 10,000 years, in the eternal loneliness and darkness, she has been fighting with him at the soul level, and Freya doesn't know what the Dao is for, she doesn't want Balthis to know the Dao, and it is actually her who leads the sealing of spiritual power. She has been disguising her soul fluctuations as unconscious machine spirits.
In order to destroy Balthus, during the last battle ten thousand years ago, she had severely damaged Balthus's soul consciousness, so in these ten thousand years, his consciousness was sometimes awake and sometimes chaotic.
He rarely wakes up, and it seems that only when his consciousness is chaotic, will he continue to attack her seal because of the soul instinct of survival.
On the contrary, when he was awake, his soul fluctuated but he was always silent, silent with sadness, pain, and despair, and sometimes called Freya's name like a dream.
Freya thought about it for ten thousand years, but she never understood what those three were for, let alone the tone and feelings he said when he called her name in the eternal darkness...... Also, she didn't understand his confused outpouring of love the most......
It wasn't until 10,000 years later that this secret space was finally opened, and this generation of Terran guardians said to her, "He loves you." ”
Maybe...... She's always understood? just ......
"It's just that you don't dare to face his love. Di Xue spoke, and seeing that Freya had been silent, he simply sat down next to the golden giant sword, stretched his hands and looked at the sky, quietly looking at the dragon demon in the sky who was violently destroying everything.
Freya was silent for a long time, and finally spoke, "I...... is unacceptable...... He is a dragon demon and an enemy of my life. ”
"So what?" Di Xue chuckled: "Your era is now called primeval by us, everything tens of thousands of years ago, your so-called mission, his so-called sin, what is the meaning of today, ten thousand years later?"
In Di Xue's opinion, Balthus, who is now like a madman, is nothing more than a poor man who vents his sorrow and pain.
Di Xue continued: "As far as I know, Balthus is tyrannical, but it is not a heinous crime, he is the only one who has not wantonly slaughtered the creatures of the mortal world to devour the essence of life, maybe this is the reason why he has never exhausted the energy of life when he was sealed by you, but looking back at everything, his own so-called sin is also his own natural irresistible bloodline inheritance, even if he was once a tyrannical demon lord, but he was sealed and imprisoned by you for tens of thousands of years, and all the crimes are enough to pay off......"
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Freya interrupted Di Xue's words, she couldn't believe it, the man in front of her, as the guardian of the human race, was actually talking to a demon lord?
"I want to say, love is the most wonderful thing in the world, there is no question of identity, status or even race, why can't the dragon and the demon god love each other and have children?
"Because even if he loves me, I don't love him!"
"You're lying, you just said you can't accept it, it's not that you don't love it. ”
“......”
