Endless vast other world

Chapter 41

After Gunnar left, Lucia returned to Demon King City, waiting for him wholeheartedly.

What Lucia finally waited for was the news of Gunnar's death.

When she heard the news just now, Lucia couldn't believe it at all.

how can that be possible.how could be.

My own Gunnar is a great wizard.How could he die.

Maybe he will fail the mission, but he will definitely not die.

Will not.Absolutely not.

but.The little goblin who came to report the letter in front of him was so serious.

Lucia tries to talk herself out of the news of Gunnar's death.

but.This little goblin who was standing in front of Lucia came to report.His expression, even his existence, insisted on telling Lucia that Gunnar was indeed dead.

Lucia stood there dumbfounded.

She felt as if she had been stabbed.

and.This knife stabbed in her heart.

Lucia just stood there blankly.

The little goblin who came to report the news was panicked.

He was afraid that Lucia would take it out on him.When Lucia heard the bad news, if she was unhappy, she might kill herself.

Isn't King Lie such a person?As soon as he hears bad news, he will immediately swing his giant ax without saying a word, and kill those who come to report the news first.And when killing, the ax was aimed directly at the neck, beheading on the spot!
Lucia wouldn't be like this, killing herself on the spot, right?

With a trembling voice, Lucia confirmed to the little goblin who came to report again: "Are you telling the truth? Gunnar is dead?"

The little goblin nodded: "Yes...he's dead..."

Lucia trembled her lips: "Could it be, could it be... that, what Kongzhen, killed Gunnar?"

The little goblin was scared to death.He was afraid that Lucia, like King Li, would vent her anger on the messenger.

In a panic, the little goblin said: "Yes, yes... I seem to have heard that it was a man named Kongzhen who killed Gunnar..."

The truth is not like this.Gunnar died of his own madness and greed.

The information that the little goblin inquired was that Gunnar died during the battle with Kongzhen.He didn't hear anything, that Kongma killed Gunnar or something like that.

but.After so many people passed the news back and forth, the taste has long since changed.What the little goblin heard was just some words, such as Kongma, battle, Gunnar and so on.

In addition, the little goblin was scared at this moment and wanted to leave quickly.So, when Lucia asked him if Sora killed Gunnar, the little goblin immediately recognized it.

"It seems, that's the one, it's called Kongzhen..."

Lucia was silent.

The little goblin was terrified.Afraid that Lucia would kill him on the spot like King Li.

But Lucia didn't.

Lucia looked at the trembling little goblin in front of her, sighed, and said nothing.

She waved her hand and let the little goblin go.

Looking at the back of the little goblin who was relieved, as if he had saved his life, Lucia felt an indescribable sadness.

Why didn't his own Gunnar survive?
Lucia seemed to see it.To me, love is like a bitter medicine wrapped in sugar.

When I tasted it for the first time, because of the sugar coating on the outside, I didn't feel the bitterness, but only tasted the sweetness.Fake sweetness.

But.When that sweet wrap quickly melts away.The bitterness will overpower everything.

After learning of Gunnar's death.For the next month or so, Lucia locked herself in a room.

She was alone, curled up in a corner of the room.

The room is airtight.Thick curtains block all the sunlight that may penetrate.

There was no light and no sound in the room.Nothing at all.

Lucia stayed in such a room for more than a month.

this moment.All the memories of Lucia's life have been dug out.

In Lucia's bewildered eyes.She slowly fell into the depths of memory.

Almost everyone in the world thinks that Gunnar is ugly as hell.He was a goblin after all.

But Lucia never thought of it that way.In her heart, Gunnar is far more handsome than those so-called beautiful men like Jod Sapen and Hannes.

at this time.The faces of Gunnar and the time I spent with Gunnar resurfaced in front of Lucia.

Vivid, fresh.As if it appeared yesterday.

Lucia wants to forget Gunnar forever and get out of the shadows.

She wanted to burn and bury her memories of Gunnar.

But she couldn't do it.

Lucia clearly wanted to change, but she couldn't do anything.

She can only drag the body, pick up the tired soul, and let herself drift away.

Lucia noticed.Before I knew it, I seemed to be addicted to love.

Lucia felt that love was like a dagger.As for himself, he was swallowing this dagger.

He stuffed the dagger into his own mouth.The fingers are still on the handle of the dagger.

Lucia knew that this would kill her.

But that seductive, metallic taste still made her want to stop.

Lucia suddenly felt.Perhaps, love is a kind of superfluous thing.

And redundant means that there is no value.It means that all efforts are in vain.It means that all the good things cannot be remembered.Means, all pain fades away in time.

Only when she thought this way did Lucia feel that she felt better.

Or is it.Could it be that Lucia has been having a dream all these years?Could it be that Lucia first possessed herself, then charmed herself, and finally steals her dream?
This dream, in the long time, has become more and more vigorous and hotter.Naturally, it becomes more and more mysterious and real.

And Lucia didn't forget to leave a place for herself in this dream.

However, in this dream, the role of Lucia is the heroine in the drama.

Only when she thought this way did Lucia feel that she felt better.

Lucia wanted to hide in the world of memories and never come out again.

But the world of memories refused to accept her.And the real world, she doesn't like it.

Lucia is forced into an awkward position.

And at the very end.Lucia could only be forced to make peace with this unfriendly world.

for a long time.Among the demons, the status of succubus is not low.However, it has always been looked down upon by other races.

Investigate its root.It is because succubi are all beautiful women, and it is easy for other races to have unreasonable thoughts.

And those abilities of the succubus, such as charm, such as stealing dreams.It seems to be confirming the "unreasonable thoughts" of other races.

Men of other races, when watching succubus.Their obscene gazes seemed to want to slowly take off the clothes on the succubus one by one.

And it is.Due to the unique characteristics of the succubus race.Sometimes, the succubus even becomes someone else's familiar.

The various abilities of the succubus do not have any substantial attack power.It feels more like a tool to please others.

From succubus to familiar.From an independent individual with free thoughts, he became a vassal of others.From a person to an object.

How can this be tolerated?
Lucia used to be weird.Why is the race of succubus all women?Why does the succubus race have abilities similar to charm, dream stealing, and possession?

Lucia guessed now.Is it because all the people in the succubus clan have been heartbroken by love.All have been hurt by love.So, did it gradually become like this?
Is there an original sin to be born a succubus?

One of the important reasons why Lucia fell in love with Gunnar is.Gunnar never regarded Lucia as a vassal.He regards Lucia as an individual with independent will.

When people like Jod Sapen regard Lucia as "consumable", Gunnar insists on treating Lucia.See it as your lover.

This is the fundamental difference between Gunnar and other men.That's why Lucia fell in love with Gunnar.

It's not that the heart is still beating, it can be said that he is still alive.

Independent spirit, free will.With these, is a real living person.

Otherwise, it's just a talking and walking corpse.And undead soldiers, there is no difference.

Independent spirit, free will.This makes a person a "person".

Lucia recalled, one night.

At that time, Lucia and Gunnar were still living on the border between demons and humans.

The two of them are poor, but also very loving.The two have nothing but love.

in the winter night.The cold wind howls.

The howling cold wind passed through their mottled and damaged walls.Under the low and shallow eaves, one or two sounds could be heard occasionally, the wailing of small animals that were about to freeze to death.

Even the moon is ruthless.In this cold, the light blue moon, just so coldly, let this happen.

In the shabby house of Lucia and Gunnar, the beds they slept on were made of earth, and their bodies were covered with collected reeds.

The cold wind blew into the bodies of Lucia and Gunnar, blowing into the bone marrow.

Lucia shivered from the cold.As soon as she lay down, the pillow on the pillow was full of desolation.

The second watch is the most difficult time.Lucia tossed and turned, but couldn't fall asleep.Seeing that she couldn't fall asleep, she had no choice but to stand up and walk around the small room, trying to keep warm.

Even so, Lucia was still too cold.

Gunnar had no choice.The two only had a thin quilt.Gunnar has given all of this quilt to Lucia.He himself was so cold that his lips were purple.

what to do?Are the two going to freeze to death in this hut?

In desperation, Gunnar had no choice but to do so.

Gunnar hugged Lucia.Just hug each other.

The two hugged each other like this.Through body temperature, warm each other.

Get through the night.

Then, I survived many, many innumerable nights like this.

some years later.When Lucia and Gunnar finally became the guests of the Demon King and possessed enough power, money and status, they still couldn't forget that night.

Even in the days to come, the two of them slept on delicate gums, covered by pillows that were thick with brocade quilts.Lucia and Gunnar still miss the old days.

But now.All of this is gone.

For someone like Lucia.Tragedy will only be late, but never absent.

Now that Gunnar is gone, Lucia is left alone, scattered like weeds.

Lucia stood up.

She stood blankly in the dark room, looking around.

This room used to be the common home of Lucia and Gunnar.

now.This empty room seemed to be empty.

But, in fact, this room is full.

Full, empty, memories.

How does this allow Lucia to escape?

How does this allow Lucia to escape?

Lucia stood up.

She didn't want to run away.

It is useless to escape.It will not change the reality in the slightest.

Lucia wants to change reality, not escape.

Lucia decided to face reality bravely.

Come on, be realistic.

Let's fight and see.

Lucia wants revenge, revenge on everyone.

She wants revenge on Sora and the entire human kingdom.

Lucia wants to kill all the murderers who killed Gunnar.

None of you can escape!
Coincidentally, the timing was just right.When Lucia finally woke up from a state of "walking in chaos" and started to walk out of that room, wanting to face reality, Sora also completed a redemption on the battlefield of Modan Lite.

Although Kong Ma's adventure in Modan Lite failed to accomplish the fundamental goal, that is, to save Princess Biviti.However, he really defeated that damned Thakuri, rescued Gacy, and helped the Thurmans to gain considerable development.

What Sora didn't know was.When he was fighting bloody in Modan Lite's dragon lair, Thakuri was not the only one who stared at him closely.

The Queen of Demons had already come to Modan Lite.When Kongzhen was fighting in Mo Dalit's dragon lair, the female devil stood not far away, watching all this quietly.

In fact.Just after Thakuri imprisoned Kuma and his party and summoned the undead army.Almost at the same time, Thakuri immediately sent someone to send a message across thousands of miles, reporting the good news to the Queen of Demons.

Thakuri did this because he hoped to be rewarded by the Queen of Demons.After all, Thakuri's lifelong pursuit is to realize his own self-worth and make contributions.

The queen was also very happy when she heard the news.Successfully summoned the invincible undead army, and captured Sora alive.It can be said that this is the biggest success the Queen has achieved since she took office.

Therefore, as soon as the female devil heard the news, she rushed over immediately.

pity.When the Queen of Demons arrived at Modan Lite, what she saw was not the scene where Thakuri led the undead army to pay tribute to her as she imagined.

What she happened to see was how Kongzhen destroyed Takuri's summoning magic circle in the dragon cave and regained the dragon's breath.With Gacy, Fu Nuo and the others, they successfully counter-killed Thakuri.

What the Queen saw was how Takuli tried to kill Karen cruelly, but killed her own daughter instead.

The Queen even saw it all the time, the celebration banquet of Modan Lit's night.

When the female devil set off from Demon King City to Modan Lite, she took Lucia with her as her deputy.

In fact, there is no special reason.It's just that the female devil hopes that it will be more convenient to bring a woman of the same gender as her along the way.

Just when Lucia and the Queen of Demons arrived at Modan Lite, Kong Ma had already started to destroy Thakuri's teleportation magic circle.

Lucia accompanied the Queen and witnessed the destruction of Thakuri.

Lucia didn't have a particularly big reaction to Thakuri's death.After all, in Lucia's view, Thakuri is also one of her enemies.

Whoever treats Gunnar badly is Lucia's enemy.

Lucia thought so.The female devil traveled all the way from the city of the devil to Modan Lite, but what she saw was such a scene of failure.She must have had a fit of rage and a fit of rage.

but.To Lucia's surprise.The Queen of Demons showed great interest in this matter.

Not shocked, not scared.The Demon Queen just showed great interest.

It's like seeing a strange creature.

At first.When the Queen of Demons learned that Gunnar was killed by Kong Ma, she didn't show much surprise or regret.

After all, actually.Since Kong Zhen is capable of injuring herself, the Queen of Demons knows that Kong Zhen must be a person with unlimited potential.Especially Kongzhen's battle suit, especially won the appreciation of the Queen of Demons.

How could a mere Gunnar be able to stop Kong Zhen, who was gaining momentum?

Therefore, regarding Gunnar's death, the Queen of Demons actually had a certain prediction.

In addition, Gunnar died, so he didn't lose much to himself.On the contrary, it can be regarded as getting rid of the courtiers who may have second thoughts about him.It's not a bad move either.

so.The witch queen for Gunnar's death.Did not show any strange feeling.

but.Thakuri's death aroused the Queen's interest.

First of all, Thakuri is the queen's capable general.Moreover, he was single-handedly picked up by the female devil, so he must be very loyal to the female devil.Losing a loyal and capable subordinate is a huge loss to the Queen of Demons.

and.Thakuri is such a capable person, and his plan has also received strong support from all aspects of the Queen.Logically speaking, how could such a formidable plan fail?
It seems that this space really has some skills.

Ever since seeing Sora Ma's first sight, from the first time she saw Sora Ma's battle suit, the Queen has developed a strong interest in Sora Ma.

Seeing Kongzhen kill Gunnar and defeat Thakuri, the Queen became more interested in Kongzhen.

Standing not far away, on a high mountain.The female devil gently stroked the faint scar on her face.

From the perspective of the audience, she watched everything with cold eyes.

And what about Lucia standing beside the Queen?
She was extremely shocked by the Queen's behavior.

Lucia originally thought that the Queen of Demons, seeing that Thakuri was about to fail, would definitely come out in time to help Thakuri eliminate Kongma.

yes.A person as powerful as the Queen of Demons was attacked by Kong Ma in Beilan Town, but it was just a momentary miss.If the female devil really fights seriously, even if ten Kongma fight together, I am afraid that none of them will be the opponent of the female devil.

and.For Thakuri's plan, the Queen of Demons has also paid attention to it for so long and put in a lot of effort.This shows that the Queen of Demons should be very concerned about this plan.

But.Why did the queen not care about it at the end?

Why is she so calm.Standing on the side of the mountain, watching all this with cold eyes?
Lucia couldn't figure it out.

Why is the Queen of Demons unwilling to help?
Looking aside, the female devil gently stroked her scar.Suddenly, Lucia seemed to understand something.

Lucia and Gunnar have always been loyal to the Queen.However, the female devil may not treat them with the same sincerity.

Lucia hates Thakuri very much, because she and Takuri are competitors.However, he wouldn't just watch Takuri die like this, would he?

But the sorceress did it.

and.Lucia looked at the female devil's indifferent expression, and she guessed that the female devil did not have the slightest remorse for her actions.

My own boss turned out to be such a person.

Lucia suddenly felt a strange feeling.

Specifically, resentment.

Lucia and Gunnar, is everything they do for the queen really worth it?
Lucia's own lover, Gunnar, even gave her life for the great cause of the queen.

But is all this really worth it?
Lucia and Gunnar are loyal to the queen.Even if she died for the great cause of the queen, she has no complaints.

but.Is this the attitude of the Queen of Demons towards her subordinates?
The Queen of Demons personally supported Thakuri and personally presided over the plan.However, even so, Thakuri's death seemed to be nothing to the Queen of Demons.

In contrast, Gunnar's death is definitely not worth mentioning to the Queen of Demons.

If one day, Lucia herself died in battle, would the Queen feel sorry for herself?

No.The Queen will not.

After learning of Gunnar's death, Lucia once fantasized.For this, the death of her loyal old minister Gunnar must be extremely sad.

In Lucia's fantasy.Maybe, in order to avenge Gunnar, the Queen of Demons will take the initiative to go out and go out in person.Defeat that Kuma and get justice for Gunnar.

But now, thinking about it now, I must have thought too much.

Lucia guessed.Gunnar's death must be nothing to the Queen of Demons.From the beginning to the end, the female devil didn't take Gunnar seriously.

Not to mention personally acting for Gunnar.The Queen of Demons doesn't even feel sad when she's sad.

Looking at the high-ranking female demon queen, Lucia thought about it, grabbed her clothes, and asked her fiercely: "We treat you as a king, do you treat us as subjects?"

Lucia finally realized.In the eyes of the Queen, Lucia, Gunnar, Thakuri...these people are just pawns for her to achieve her goal.

Lucia was deeply disappointed at first.Then, despair again.

Lucia lost hope about the "devil queen helping Gunnar avenge her".Lucia understood that this was impossible.

The only one who can avenge Gunnar is himself.

then.On the high mountains of Modan Lite.Lucia begged the Queen, hoping to let herself fight to defeat Sora.

"Please, Lord Demon King, please. Let me fight! I promise, I will bring you Kongzhen's head!"

"Kongma, he, he, he killed the love of my life, how can I not take revenge on him?"

The Queen of Demons was noncommittal about this.

The Queen didn't answer.

"Let's go." The Queen of Demons said to Lucia.

The Queen of Demons took Lucia and left Modan Lite.

The two quickly disappeared into the night.

The Queen of Demons is resourceful.She is a very calculating person.

For people like Sora, the Queen of Demons doesn't want to kill them immediately.Instead, I want to "raise" first, and see Kongzhen's great development in the future.

The Queen of Demons had no regrets about the deaths of her subordinates.

but.Even someone as smart as the Queen of Demons probably didn't think of it.Beside him, a spiritual seed of rebellion had been quietly planted.

An unqualified boss will not have qualified subordinates.

Lucia has gradually seen clearly the true face of the Queen of Demons.She is no longer so loyal to the Queen of Demons.

"Leave the Queen."

Such thoughts have been slowly planted in Lucia.

In any case, the most urgent task now is to take revenge on Sora.

Lucia got the information that it was Sora who killed her lover Gunnar in the Linton Cup arena.

So, revenge on Sorama.

Since the Queen of Demons refused to help, she did it by herself.

Even if the Queen of Demons didn't agree to fight by herself, she still had to do it.

Straight past the Queen.Lucia decides to go it alone.Sneak into the capital again and kill Sora.

Lucia knew that Sora would definitely return to the capital after finishing his expedition in Modan Lite.

Then, let's fight to the death with Sora in the capital!
