Reina felt that something was wrong. This wasn't reality. This definitely wasn't reality. At this moment, she should be in some large city that had already turned into ruins.
He sat there quietly, but Reina didn't move forward and throw herself into his arms. She was afraid that he would disappear like a phantom.
"Is it really you?"
"It's me."
"But you're not here."
Reina lowered her head and said sadly.
He didn't answer. This was also a kind of answer. She probably guessed right.
"I'm the one who dragged you down, right?"
She held back her tears. She didn't know that she loved to cry so much. After Mr. Ball died, she had stopped crying.
"No, I just went to another place."
Richard shook his head. However, this didn't make Reina feel any better. She only felt sadder.
He abandoned me once again.
"Why, why didn't you bring me along? Why?"
She still had so many things she wanted to say to him, but her grief made her choke on her sobs and unable to speak.
Richard walked towards her and stopped in front of her.
"The place I'm going to is very dangerous. It's full of enemies. I can't bring you along."
As expected, he despises me for being too weak.
Reina's heart tightened. Her journey had resulted in this result. She had even lost Mr. Ball.
"I don't understand. Since you abandoned me, why were you so good to me back then! Why did you teach me magic! Why didn't you let me die alone in that shabby house! Why, bring Mr. Ball to me. Boohoo … Mr. Ball is dead. He died protecting me. "
After venting, she covered her face and wept. The Demon King revealed a guilty expression. Perhaps he shouldn't have been in such a hurry. He should have stayed in this world for a while. It wouldn't be long. After all, a human's life was very short. Moreover, she might be able to find a place she belonged to soon.
The guilty Demon King sighed. He wanted to say goodbye to her properly, unlike last time when he left without saying goodbye. However, Reina hoped that he could stay or bring her along. However, Richard understood that this was impossible. He could no longer turn back.
He reached out and gently grabbed Reina's right hand.
"I don't have much time left. This might be the last time we meet. Is there anything else you want to say to me?"
Reina was silent for a while. She gently bit her lower lip and asked, "Why did you go to such a dangerous place?"
"I'm going to save someone who has done me a favor."
"Then go. Don't worry about me. Anyway, no one in this world cares about me. Go. Don't come back. I can live well on my own."
She pushed the master's hand away and turned around. Richard knew that she was throwing a tantrum. She wanted him to stay.
After Reina said those words, she also felt incomparably regretful. She never knew why she said those words.
The forest suddenly became blurry, and the scenery around her began to disappear. She turned around in fear and ran towards her master in regret.
"If you encounter any difficulties, go to the Ufa Great Forest and find a Ke Rabbit called Halla. She will definitely help you."
Richard's voice disappeared, and the surroundings turned pitch-black.
"Don't go!"
Reina shouted as she woke up from her sleep. She found herself in the forest, lying on a bed woven from plants.
She felt her right hand itch. Lifting it up, she saw blue veins on her white wrist. The mark on her left hand had also disappeared.
He really had left.
… …
The world was instantly liberated from the darkness. Very quickly, news of victory spread throughout the entire human empire. There were already many demon territories. The disappearance of the 14 Divine Pillars meant that Demon King Richard had failed in the eyes of the world. News of his death quickly spread throughout the world.
As the heartland of the Wussen Empire, the Ufa Great Forest was filled with sorrow. Countless people wept for him. In the territory of the northern dragons, the new Dragon Queen Tonys saw the sun return to its normal state. She silently lowered her head and let out a sorrowful roar.
Countless humans seemed to have been liberated as they fled from the Wussen Empire. Of course, there were also some who chose to stay. The news that the Demon King Richard and the Evil Dragon Emperor had been defeated by the Four Braves spread like wildfire throughout the kingdoms. Even though the war had consumed a large amount of food, banquets were still held as usual.
As for the adventurer's guild, which had been established to resist the demons, it gradually began to wither away. With the death of the Demon King, the retreat of the demons, and the resignation of the guild's leader, Nell Phoenix, the guild had entered a state of complete chaos. The guild's assets had been divided among the various leaders.
This war had allowed the humans to truly interact with the demons. They had discovered that without the leadership of the Demon King, the majority of the demons, like the majority of the humans, desired peace. They were not the bloodthirsty monsters they had described. As a result, the humans and demons had opened up trade routes. This was the first time this had happened in thousands of years.
The humans no longer had the Braves, the demons no longer had the Demon King. Peace had descended upon the world.
"Is this what you want? Richard. "
At this moment, the retired Nell Phoenix was sitting in front of a small house in the forest. She was looking at the newspaper in her hand and fell into deep thought. Perhaps everyone in the world had been deceived by him. Perhaps he had not died and was only hiding somewhere in the world. Other than the death of the Demon King, the most eye-catching news in the newspaper was that the Getan Empire had been rebuilt. However, the current leader was the one who had defeated the Demon King, the Dwarves who called themselves the Artisans.
People called the Battle of Black Sun the Great War of Salvation. Of the four Braves who had participated in the war, the Braves of Luyas had sacrificed themselves. The remaining three Braves had also lost their powers as Braves. The Dragon Boat Empire's Prince Soaring Dragon had lost his right eye. After returning to the country, he held a coronation ceremony and became the one-eyed king. Gianna had also become the Queen of Ten Thousand Snakes. She had lost too much of her magic, and the power of ice on her hands had also weakened. She no longer needed to wear gloves.
Rhode Island's Immortal, who had traveled across the ocean, had lost one of his hands. Countless empires wanted to marry him, but they were all rejected. He could have joined a royal family, but he still returned to that isolated island and became his master at the top of a mountain.
However, under this peaceful atmosphere, something woke up from the ground.
A pair of blue eyes lit up, and a withered body crawled out from a rotten grave. At this moment, in an ancient and eerie tomb, there was a strange eagle statue. Under the statue, a blonde man woke up. He yawned and stretched lazily.
It was pitch black all around. Only the sound of his bones cracking could be heard as he moved his body.
"Ah, what a wonderful dream. No, the dream has come true. The people who are in the way are all dead. Wake up! Lazy bums! Our time has come! "
As soon as he finished speaking, countless pairs of blue eyes suddenly appeared around him. In the darkness, various twisted and terrifying figures appeared.
The ancient monster had awakened.
