Contract and the Demon King

Chapter 228: See you again in half a year

Since half a year ago, Nangong Liuli's physical condition has been bad.For her, a maiden of the Nangong family, such a situation can be said to be unbelievable.It's just that such a seemingly unbelievable thing did happen, and as for the reason, she knew better than anyone else.

Since she was born, she has had the ability to see the essence through the surface.Like healing power, this seems to be an innate ability that every generation of shrine maidens possesses.Therefore, since she was a child, she has been able to see the essence of a person through the outside.No matter how the other party pretends, it won't work in her eyes.According to my mother, her ability seems to be the strongest among the priestesses of all ages.

It is also because she was born with the talent to become a witch, so she received the witch education from the Nangong family since she was a child.Unlike her confident and dazzling elder sister, what she wants to live is actually just an ordinary life.Although due to the seal of the killing stone and the rules of the Nangong family, she has never left the Nangong family since she was a child, but she has no complaints about it.And the information about the outside world brought by her sister every time she returns to her home or during contact is also one of the things she is most interested in.

In this way, more than ten years of ordinary and peaceful days passed, until the man who changed her destiny appeared.For her, he is undoubtedly the existence that changed her destiny.Due to the rules of the Nangong family, he who subdued the nine-tailed demon fox became his husband-in-law as a matter of course, although in the eyes of ordinary people, it seems unacceptable for two sisters to have a marriage contract with a man at the same time.But for the Nangong family, who are an ancient exorcist family, these are not problems at all.It was the first time to leave Nangong Ben's house, the first time to see a city that I had only seen in pictures and videos before, and the first time to go to school.In getting along with him, her life has also become completely different.

He's strong, he's carried a lot, he's endured a lot, he's hidden a lot.However, that kind of tenderness and kindness is definitely not fake.Although it can't be seen on the surface, she knows it, or she knows her ability, although she seems to be fine.However, in his heart, there will always be some confusion unconsciously, as if he has lost something very important.Maybe even he himself didn't realize it, but she did feel it.

She doesn't like this feeling, she wants to make him happy, she wants to help her dispel this confusion, and she wants to share it with him.This is the responsibility of being a wife and also her wish.Although she is not as confident and dazzling as her sister, she believes that as long as she is willing to work hard, she will definitely be able to help him.

It is precisely because of this that she cannot forgive herself.Mingming so much wanted to help him share what he was burdening, so obviously wanted to make him happy, so obviously wanted to dispel the confusion in his heart.However, on that day, in that demon king's temple, she actually became the one who finally made him disappear.The silver-haired man didn't lie, and he didn't deny it.However, she knew it, she knew how much harm she had caused him at that time.

It was her who caused him to lose his mind at the most critical moment, and was finally seriously injured by that silver-haired man. Even now, she can't forget his gaze at that time, and herself reflected in that gaze.

But, it's not like this, it shouldn't be like this, it can't be like this!She still has something to say, she wants to go with him to see more of the outside world.With this man who bonded because of family rules, with this man whom he called her husband, with this gentle man...

It's a pity that because of her stupidity, because of her incorrigible wavering, all this is impossible.On that day, he completely disappeared before her eyes.The only thing left is only memories.From then on, she felt that the world lost its color, the outside world, new things, these things became meaningless in her eyes.She didn't say that he was not a human being, whether it was her sister, father or mother, she didn't reveal a word.This is her crime and punishment, and this secret is the proof of her crime.

As usual, his figure reappeared in front of his eyes, which was the last gesture he showed that day.Holding the pitch-black magic sword in his hand, his body was surrounded by a huge and twisted darkness.However, no matter how twisted and violent the surrounding darkness was, he who was in the center of the darkness was not affected in the slightest.

Full of destruction and unknown, the darkness that brings the end to everything in this world.Under the gaze of those bright golden pupils without emotion at all, she also ran towards him without hesitation just like every time before.

It doesn't matter if it's a dream, it doesn't matter if you get killed if you get close.Even if her soul would be burned and her existence would be destroyed, she would still run towards him without hesitation.Unfortunately, as usual.No matter how she ran, she still couldn't get close to the figure surrounded by darkness.And as time went by, the distance between her and him became more and more distant...

"Wait! Wait! Don't go!"

While running desperately, she fell heavily to the ground, but without any hesitation, she immediately got up again regardless of the pain and ran towards him again.It doesn't matter if she's exhausted, it doesn't matter if her legs shatter, she...

"Husband!"

The hoarse, exhausted cry echoed in this world without a ray of light.However, it was different from any previous time, just when the figure she had been chasing was about to disappear as usual...



Another figure holding a pitch-black magic sword suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, and cut him in two instantly.He couldn't even resist and was quickly absorbed by the pitch-black magic sword.

"How...how could..."

Witnessing that he, who she was chasing desperately, died in front of her eyes, she opened her eyes wide in despair.The next moment, a warm hand took hers.Feeling the familiar warmth, she subconsciously looked to the right, but before she could see clearly who he was, her consciousness began to blur, a nightmare without any light at all, in that whole body surrounded by twisted darkness After the figure disappeared, it officially ushered in the end.

Although until the end, she didn't see who the person beside her was, but the warmth from her hands made her feel an inexplicable sense of security.That warm feeling, yes, that's...
