A snowflake slowly floated down. The man's eyes flickered with an uneasy expression. His thin face carried a trace of exhaustion.
Demon?
The Demon King's eyebrows rose slightly. A terrifying figure appeared in his mind. It was a creature without any intelligence that only knew how to destroy and devour everything.
But judging from Yilin's words, that demon shouldn't be a creature that the Demon King knew of. Was it an adjective?
"Can you talk about it in detail? It's about the demon and her mother. "
The Demon King had already determined that the missing person was Reina's mother.
However, Yilin shook his head slightly. He covered his face with his hands and rubbed it up and down. "No, we're not allowed to talk about that. We can't even say … … my sister's name."
Hearing this, the Demon King looked around. There were only the two of them.
He looked at Yilin and said, "Then I'll just look."
As he spoke, the Demon King reached out his hand. In Yilin's eyes, he became the night sky. Everything suddenly turned black.
Through Yilin's eyes, the Demon King saw everything.
That was a woman who yearned for the outside world. Yilin's deepest memory of his sister was that she liked to sit on a rock in the grasslands and look into the distance. Cows and sheep lowered their heads to graze around her. A cool breeze blew past, causing her skirt to sway.
"I really want to go out and take a look."
"A person can only live for a lifetime. Why do we have to stay in one place forever?"
"When I become an adult, I want to go out. I want to leave my footprints in every corner of the world."
These were all words that his sister loved to say. Back then, no one took her words seriously. Until one day, an outsider came to visit.
It was a strange man. He had a head of golden hair and always had a smile on his face. He said that he came from the distant west and was traveling alone.
What no one expected was that he passed the trial and entered the village.
Yilin wasn't surprised at all. This man immediately attracted his sister's attention. As the chief of the tribe, his father allowed him to temporarily stay in his home. It was also at that time that his sister began to interact with him.
The two of them were very congenial, and gradually, the two of them spent more and more time together. Yilin felt that the relationship between the two was not normal. He told his father about it, but he was scolded. After all, that man was so gentle, kind, and generous.
He also gave up trying to persuade her. He only hoped that his sister would not be deceived.
However, everyone had been tricked. That man had used some unknown method to trick my sister, allowing her to break the magic of the ancestral hall and steal the World Stone. That is a treasure that maintains the balance between the human world and the spirit world. The High Mountain Tribe is its guardian. We can summon a god and obtain great power from it.
However, after losing the World Stone, the balance of the Spirit Realm was broken. That night, a large number of deviant ghosts rushed out of the Kevlar Mountains.
We can't let the deviant ghosts come down the mountain. The people of the world have no way to fight against them. Only with the protection of the gods can we completely destroy them. For this, countless brave warriors of the High Mountain Tribe had sacrificed themselves. As the tribe leader, his father had also used a forbidden power to close the gap in the Spirit Realm.
His sister went missing. The tribe members all thought that she was dead. Yilin rushed to the ancestral hall and saw the silver bracelet on the ground. He knew that his sister was not dead. She had left.
Because of his sister, Yilin's family was blamed and could only move to the remote north. Yilin's mother also left the tribe …
The Demon King opened his eyes. His red eyes gradually turned black. In front of him, Yilin seemed to be in a nightmare. His eyes were tightly shut, and his head was covered in sweat.
So something like this had happened. No wonder Reina knew nothing about the past.
Suddenly, Yilin opened his eyes. He panted a few times. He did not understand the situation.
"Me? Did I fall asleep? "
He looked around in confusion. The wine cup was lying on the ground, and the jug was also lying on the ground. There was not a single drop of wine in it.
He did not remember that he had drunk so much. Moreover, he had fallen asleep in the snow. He did not wake up from the cold, nor did he get frostbite.
"You drank too much."
The Demon King said. Yilin had no memory of this at all. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm ashamed."
Then he invited the Demon King to rest at his house for the night. However, the Demon King rejected him. He left behind his beast skin coat and walked back alone in the dark.
But halfway there, a ray of light came. He turned around and saw that the light in the dark seemed to be smiling at him.
"Yilin."
The Demon King looked at his back. After seeing his memories, the Demon King felt that he was a trustworthy person. He could leave Reina in his care without worry.
Moreover, they were family.
Then he turned around and looked at the mountain peak.
… …
"You will die here!"
A terrifying voice sounded in her mind. Reina suddenly opened her eyes. She crawled out of the tent. It was pitch black and there was no one around.
"Is anyone here?"
She tried to shout, but there was only the sound of the wind.
What was that voice?
That was not her master's voice. It was a very terrifying voice that did not sound like a human's voice.
She clenched her fists and felt a bit afraid. But when she turned around and saw a light, the fear in her heart disappeared.
Reina woke up very early. The first thing she did was to look down the mountain. There was a flash of light in the clouds. She knew that her master was still there. Only then did she let out a sigh of relief. After eating a simple meal, she continued to climb to the peak.
After staying in the mountain for a day, her body had already adapted to the environment. Today, her speed had increased greatly.
However, as she climbed higher, the soft sounds in her ears became more and more realistic. That feeling was like hearing a mosquito fly by her ear. But no matter how hard she tried, she could not find a trace of it. There was also no way to stop it from making a sound.
Slowly, this sound changed from irritating to terrifying. It became more and more realistic. It even turned into a scream.
Reina's speed slowed down again. She clearly had hopes of reaching the peak today, but she could not continue. Her body was as heavy as lead. She also felt like she could not breathe.
Today, she felt very tired. All the bones in her body were prickling. Her muscles were sore and her throat was burning.
What was even more unbearable was the lingering sound in her head. She covered her ears, but she could still hear those sounds. This night was quite torturous. She almost did not sleep.
The next day, she dragged her tired body and looked back at the light behind her. Reina gritted her teeth and slowly climbed to the peak.
Originally, she could reach the peak in one or two hours. But it took her an entire day to climb up. Moreover, she climbed one or two meters and rested for one or two minutes.
Just as she was about to reach the peak, all the sounds around her disappeared.
But Reina did not have the energy to be happy. She only had one goal now. That was to reach the peak and pick an ice flower.
However, she saw a sparkling and translucent flower not far away, emitting a fluorescent light.
Found it!
Just as she was about to climb to the top in one go, an unexpected voice came from behind her.
"Reina."
In an instant, Reina's eyes widened. Her mouth trembled and tears poured out.
She slowly turned her head and saw a familiar and warm face.
"Mom? Mom? "
