As Chen Rui continued to walk, scenes appeared one after another. They were all from a third-person perspective. These were the scattered memories of her consciousness that was on the verge of collapse. She could clearly feel her true state of mind at that time.
In the scene, the two sides were facing each other.
On the other side was a group of angels that emitted a dazzling light. It was a strong contrast to the Dark Faction that she was in.
The one who appeared at the front was a twelve-winged male angel. He had a mocking look on his face. "Lucifer, despicable fallen! It was you who turned your back on the light and betrayed and hurt Tessaniel! I, Uriel, will personally cut off your head today and bring it back as a gift to Tessaniel. Then, she will become my woman! "
She glanced at the man who hid his sadness and anger in his deep eyes. She did not comfort him. Instead, she turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed toward Uriel.
Uriel was one of the Archangels. His strength was above hers. He did not take her seriously, but he underestimated her madness. She took dozens of fatal attacks but did not fall. Then, under the incredulous gaze of all the angels, she cut off Uriel's head with a sword.
Before she fainted, the deep pair of eyes appeared in her mind. A sentence echoed in her soul. "All that I exist …"
The scene gradually faded, and another scene appeared.
In the sky, there were gradually fading blood clouds.
A tall, thin man with twelve wings on his back. Half of them were white, and the other half were black. His facial features were a little blurry, and his figure was dissipating bit by bit.
"No …" She rushed toward the man in a frenzy. Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks. This was because the man looked at her with a hint of warmth in his eyes. But it was only a glance. Then, he looked at the sky again. The existence in the sky that he could only look up to had disappeared. The man's deep eyes seemed to see many figures in the depths of his memory. There was a faint yearning on his face.
Then, the man's body and the Supreme Key in the sky were torn apart. At this moment, she fell to the ground as if she had lost all her strength. Her soul also disappeared.
Seeing this, Chen Rui already understood many things. The following scenes seemed very familiar. He was the male protagonist. First, it was the scene where Ben Hong kept his promise and "surrendered."
"I think you might have misunderstood something?" Chen Rui frowned and said.
At this moment, she felt as if she had returned to the past, and certain things overlapped. "Whether it's a mistake or a misunderstanding, it doesn't matter. The key is to walk down the path that you've chosen. Similarly, you have to bear the consequences yourself. "
What followed after was what she said, as if she was talking to herself.
"Who you are is perhaps more important to me than yourself."
"Do you believe in fate?"
"I think I can test the value of what I've found."
"That's not important anymore. What's important is that I've returned to the path that I wanted to take."
Veronica appeared and asked, "I just want to ask you, what if you're wrong?"
"Then …" She was silent for a moment, then answered with three words, "I won't regret it."
After that, many familiar scenes appeared one after another. Most of them were scenes of him happily gathering with his relatives and friends, while she just quietly watched from afar. This kind of loneliness was just like in the past.
Perhaps, this was all that was needed.
"Everyone is an irreplaceable existence." This was what Chen Rui said. This sentence caused her to fall into deep thought.
Then, it was the scene of Chen Rui explaining the truth. She understood that he didn't want to lie.
"I, not 'him.'"
"I'm sorry."
Actually, she should have had a premonition. Perhaps it was because of some kind of desire in her heart that she couldn't bear to give up.
Unfortunately, the truth was still so cruel.
She seemed indifferent, but in reality, she had lost her soul. She felt that she had once again lost the value of her existence.
It was only when she flew towards the Book of Creation and Book of Destruction that she seemed to have found her value again, just like how she had sacrificed her life to rush towards Uriel.
Although her heart felt extra peace, it was also lost and empty. It was as if she was watching from afar and quietly following. Once again.
This was reincarnation, and it was fate.
But since she had made her choice … she wouldn't regret it.
The image in her consciousness stopped, because Chen Rui had already arrived in front of her. Although he hadn't walked far, he seemed to have followed her thoughts through the endless vicissitudes of time and experienced countless changes in her state of mind.
"Who you are is more important to me than yourself." Chen Rui tried hard to correct her blurry vision and looked at Ben Hong.
This familiar sentence caused Ben Hong's almost dead eyes to move. As if using the last of her strength, she slowly turned her gaze over, just in time to meet Chen Rui's red eyes.
Different from that kind of depth, this man's eyes were simple.
Simple and pure.
A guy without any great ambitions, simply wanting to protect the people important to him.
For some reason, this simple feeling was somewhat warm.
Chen Rui looked at Ben Hong and felt her feelings. He said, "No matter what we are, friend, enemy, or something else … please, continue to exist."
Every word in these words condensed the truth from the soul.
Ben Hong's pupils shrank. She still looked at it quietly, but her eyes were no longer empty.
It wasn't reincarnation, nor was it fate.
It was a real existence.
However, she didn't even have the strength to say a word.
A tear slowly slipped from the corner of her eye. The tear flowed down, and cracks appeared on her cheek.
Chen Rui was horrified to feel that the Star God statue of "Calamity" on the Super System's Star Sealing Platform also began to crack. He tried his best to put Ben Hong into the Star Sealing Platform, but he couldn't succeed. It was as if it was air that didn't exist.
The colorful smoke slowly thinned, and Chen Rui felt the fluctuations of the soul.
Such fluctuations would undoubtedly accelerate the process of the soul collapse. This wasn't an ordinary fluctuation. Chen Rui heard that this was a song, a farewell song. She would no longer leave without saying goodbye.
The Song of Darkness.
For the first time, she really sang for him, not for her own loneliness.
The cracks on the Star God statue spread from the face to the whole body. At the same time, the original undying dark red heart lamp in the storage warehouse also cracked.
It had reached the final edge of collapse.
"Wait a minute!" Chen Rui's tears had long been uncontrollable, and they gushed out.
"It's a very familiar feeling." A voice sounded beside Chen Rui. It was Gabriel.
At this time, Catherine, Rolla, Satan, Michael and others were watching from a distance. They didn't disturb him and Ben Hong. Only Gabriel walked over.
"It's just like I watched that person disappear in the Psychedelic Forest."
Chen Rui didn't wipe the tears in his eyes, nor did he look at Gabriel. He just clenched his fists, "What do you want to say?"
"I'm not as good as her." Gabriel suddenly sighed, "At that time, that person chose to fall. I just felt despair, anger, and pain. However, she chose to fall with him. Because of my lack of courage, I missed too much, and this troubled me all my life. She was braver than me, but unfortunately, she sacrificed more than me, but received far less than me. "
Chen Rui was silent. Indeed, as Gabriel said, Ben Hong had always been by Lucifer's side. However, when Lucifer disappeared in the end, he didn't even mention Ben Hong.
If it was really like the entanglement reflected in the mirror world, Lucifer had always only regarded Ben Hong as a friend or sister. Then, he didn't mention Ben Hong because he hoped that she would let go of everything in the past and move towards a new hope.
A long time ago, he also did the same. This wasn't wrong. However, he could choose not to love Ben Hong, but he couldn't stop Ben Hong from loving him.
There was no right or wrong in love.
Gabriel looked at Ben Hong's disappearing body and revealed a faint smile, "But in the end, at least she had something. She no longer exists in this world in an empty space."
This kind of something might not be love, or it might not be completely love, or it might be some other emotion, but no matter what, she finally had hope.
"Only those who have hope can have more." Gabriel's hand reached out to Ben Hong, who had already become blurry. Just as Chen Rui wanted to stop her, he saw traces of golden blood fly out from Gabriel's fingertip and land on Ben Hong's body.
The moment the blood touched Ben Hong, it immediately turned into a gaseous state and fused with the smoke around Ben Hong's body.
"You …" Chen Rui could feel that this was the power of Gabriel's "Holy Battle Heart". More accurately, it was the Holy Battle Heart that had fused with all of her life force. Under this power, Ben Hong's body that had originally been almost incorporeal quickly became solid. The slowly dissipating smoke also retracted into her body bit by bit. Instead, the light in Gabriel's eyes quickly dimmed.
"Gabriel!" Michael exclaimed.
"If you are still the companion that I have always regarded as my brother, don't stop me." Gabriel glanced at Michael, "Because this is my choice. I have already made this choice in White Cliff. "
"Why! All of you … "Michael's remaining hand covered his head in pain.
"I'm just tired." Gabriel sighed and did not look at Michael anymore. Instead, she looked at the sky, "Is there really another world?"
This sentence seemed to be muttering to herself, but also seemed to be asking Chen Rui.
Chen Rui had already seen Gabriel's eyes clearly. It was a complicated mix of fatigue, boredom, and longing. His heart was filled with emotions, but he only answered, "Yes."
The mirror world, the world of transmigration, and others …
Gabriel smiled, just like the lively and lovely girl in the mirror world. At this moment, she seemed to have merged with the past.
"I can still see him in that world … Perhaps, there is still him."
After saying this, a breeze blew, and Gabriel's body scattered into countless silver wings, flying far away.
Chen Rui did not know who the other "him" in Gabriel's words was. Looking at the revived Ben Hong and feeling the Star God statue in the Star Sealing Platform stop cracking, this scene made him sad, but more than that, he was sincerely grateful.
Michael stretched out his trembling hand, and a wing fell on his palm. It stayed for a moment, then gradually dissipated.
