King Ember's Journey to Tevat

Chapter 487 Tragedy caused by arrogance

"Are you strong?" Hearing the conversation between Yi Jin, Young Master and the skirmishers, and seeing the latter two nodding like little followers, Aru couldn't help but curiously asked.

"Huh?" Yu Yan touched his chin, turned his head and looked at the young master and the soldiers meaningfully, without saying anything.

"Very strong, the kind of strong man who can't even arouse the desire to fight in me." The young master responded helplessly with his old face drooping.

If Ember hadn't been strong, he would have gone out to cause trouble long ago. How could there be any Poheguan?

Although Heguan's experience did leave a deep impression on him.

"It's very strong. It should be stronger than your Lord Thunderbird." Considering Aru's admiration for Thunderbird, the skirmisher still said it.

If this were not the case, he would simply remove the "should".

"Really?" Aru's eyes began to shine.

"Absolutely." Ember waved his hands and said modestly.

"Then can you help organize the festival?"

"I wonder what happened to your ruined festival?"

Ember saw Aru starting to talk about his festival again, and immediately stopped it.

"Let me ask you, what is the relationship between Kapacili and Thunderbird? What is the relationship between Kapacili and you?"

Ember cast his gaze into the distance, and in his sight, a shoal appeared.

On the shoal, there is a shadow that is exactly the same as Aru, and opposite the shadow is a huge purple falcon with lightning jumping all over its body.

[What a fun tune. You, little person, are not afraid of thunder and heavy rain? 】

[The adults in the clan say that children like me can calm thunder and lightning and turn heavy rain into sweet rain. 】

After a brief conversation, Aru's phantom in the field of vision began to sing, and the thunder that jumped on the falcon's phantom also began to subside.

"Come on, you're right." Seeing this scene, Yi Yan slapped his cheek, feeling that he had realized the truth.

"Kapachili..., it is Lord Thunderbird! This is the name I gave it."

"As for my relationship with Capaccili, I consider myself a good friend of Capaccili."

At the end of the sentence, Aru touched the back of her head sheepishly.

"Good friend? Then you are still willing to sacrifice?" Yi Yan touched his chin. It seemed that this good friend was not just Aru's unilateral view. The big thunderbird probably also regarded Aru as a friend.

However, due to Thunderbird's proud character, it did not say it directly.

"Of course I do. Kapaqili pays more attention to me. If I am a sacrifice, it should like it more."

Aru nodded. Being a sacrifice was not only a decision made by his father as a sacrifice, but also his own choice.

As long as he can make the tribe prosperous, he will pay any price, including his own life.

"It's good, but what's the result? Look, there are still people alive in this place? And you've become like this."

"Did you know before you were sacrificed that you might be considered a friend by Thunderbird?"

Ember clapped his hands, this time the sacrifice went well and it became the last time. He Guan will never have to hold a sacrifice ceremony again.

Aru heard this and shook his head.

“I’m not sure because Capaccili doesn’t come every time I sing and it doesn’t change much after listening to it.”

"You should understand now, right? And you have seen the consequences of treating you as a sacrifice."

Aru was silent, although his mind stayed at the moment when he lost consciousness, as a child.

But even a child can know what happened here over thousands of years of reincarnation.

Aru nodded silently and answered Ember's question with silence.

"Then you are still determined to complete the ceremony?" Yi Jin reached out and nodded A's forehead. His fingers broke through illusion and reality, and actually touched A's forehead.

The long-lost touch made Aru stunned. Ever since He Guan fell into reincarnation, he seemed to have become an outsider. When the familiar tribesmen reappeared in front of him, he could do nothing. Can't touch, can't talk to them.

The tribesmen just repeated the actions of the last three days of Heguan day after day. Preparing the ceremony with joy, hastily consecrating the perch, offering yourself with reverence.

Aru didn't know how many times he had seen this scene.

From the initial fear when he saw himself covered in blood to the expressionless numbness now, only he knows the journey in Aru's heart.

All he wanted now was to complete the ceremony and finish singing the songs that he had not finished singing to Capaccili.

Ember retracted his arm, and the loss of touch brought Aru back to reality.

"Are you holding a festival...? I just want to restore this land. Maybe... Kapachili will give up punishing the tribesmen when it sees that I am so troubled?"

Aru's face was dark, and his mind was still in the stage of a child. With his little mind, he could only think of this solution.

"Have you ever succeeded?" Ember asked.

"No, many people have come to Heguan before, but they either ran away or nothing changed after completing the festival."

"You guys... I originally thought it was the closest to success. I didn't expect it to be like this."

Aru looked up at the black hole swallowing thunder in the sky, feeling shocked and disappointed in her heart.

"Do you think I did something wrong? Kapachili is unwilling to forgive me?" Aru wanted to cry, but no matter what, he couldn't shed a single tear.

"Did you do something wrong? That's not true. The one who was really wrong was probably the chicken with eyes that reached the top of his head."

"The reason for everything is just the arrogance of that thunderbird. Because of the arrogance, your blood sacrifice can continue."

"The key is that it is not completely arrogant. It will be attracted by your singing, and then it will act like a mute and say nothing."

"Arrogant, but unable to afford it. At the end of the day, my friend was sacrificed, and I swallowed the bitter pill of my arrogance, so I started to be incompetent and furious."

"It's like a chicken with fried feathers, it just flutters and puffs up a cloud of dust."

Ember saw cooling lava flows on the ground. Although it was a "dust mist" to him, it was a complete disaster to the people of Heguan.

"By the way, the same goes for those who forcibly throw people up to sacrifice."

Thinking of He Guanren, Yi Yan added another sentence. If the blood sacrifice is voluntary, Ember can still accept it reluctantly, but if it is forced...

So now this scene can only be said to be awesome!

It's a pity that the normal people in Heguan remain silent, but their crimes are not worthy of death, and they will not be reincarnated with Aru for thousands of years.

Fortunately, reincarnation is only the shadow of the earth's veins. The only thing that really has a bit of soul here is Aru in front of him.

This may be the little effort Thunderbird made at the end, or it may be the regret in Aru's own heart that played a role.

"There is no need to hold a festival. Reincarnation is easy to solve. All we need to do is eliminate the power left by the Thunderbird."

"As for you wanting to sing to the Thunderbirds?"

Ember thought for a while, and then asked the skirmishers and young master behind him: "Does Dao Wife have this Thunderbird? Why haven't I heard of it?"

This thunderbird can make such a big noise in Heguan, and its strength is probably the strongest besides the God of Thunder. It would be no exaggeration to say that every move made by a guy of this strength stirred up the storm.

"I don't know, I'm from Zhidong, don't ask me." The young master shook his head like a rattle. If he didn't say that Dao Wife's history was blank, it wasn't much different.

After hearing what Ember said, the skirmisher thought for a while. Then he seemed to have thought of something and said:

"Yes! According to Inazuma's legend, there was a big purple bird that wreaked havoc on Qinglai Island, and was later killed by General Thunder with an arrow on the island."

"The resentment soaring to the sky on Qinglai Island is the result of the big bird's death."

"Okay, I'm going to die!" Yi Yan clapped his hands, and he was very happy. Originally, he had planned to secretly cook bird soup for the fools to drink after dragging Aru to sing. But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and now the bird soup is gone.

"Ka... Kapaqili is dead?"

"Wow——" Aru cried immediately when he heard the news of Capaccili's death. He felt very uncomfortable now.
