star guardian, but sword devil

Gwen raised her head in astonishment, staring at the looming figure in the darkness with her eyes wide open in disbelief.

She could feel that the power emanating from that figure was surging like a gravitational tide, and even the surrounding light was distorted by the pull of gravity, like a black hole devouring everything around it.

Who is that?

Kevin?

But...but that kind of power is exactly the same as the power of the omen of death—even purer!

— She had a strong premonition.

Although things like intuition are often very unreliable, she will feel uneasy because of this - the name is clearly on her lips, but she can't say it no matter what.

She stared wide-eyed, and stood there blankly, her pupils were still fixed on the piercing figure in the darkness, and did not move away for a long time - the depression and irritability in her heart invaded her like the ebb and flow of the tide In his heart, the bitterness of pain and unwillingness made the memories that had been dusty once again uncovered. In the end, it was nothing but a bamboo basket, and everything seemed to have become an illusion.

—Just get closer.

She thought inexplicably.

For a moment, everything darkened, and then a light burst, illuminating Valoran.

Until the storm stopped, the dust settled, and the carnival paradise was also in ruins.

Everyone knows the aftermath is inevitable, but no one wants to face it.

Except for them, no one knew what happened just now—the sudden storm destroyed this place in an instant.

Gwen couldn't see the starry sky, she looked at the teenager in front of her—to be precise, she was looking at her own face reflected in Kevin's pupils, and saw that her despair and pain seemed to be melted in Kevin's faint smile At the same time, she also found the answer she had been looking for in her heart.

"Kevin, you..."

Kevin was standing beside her, his face still showing the gentle smile as always.

Just staring at the gentle side face of the young man seemed to calm Gwen's inner hesitation and helplessness.

He took both of Gwen's hands, one of which was slender and petite, and the other had become a swollen, throbbing darkness.

Kevin didn't mind.

"Self-sacrifice is an emotion so great that lust and hunger are insignificant beside it. It drives man to the highest value of his own personality and drives him to destruction. The object is of no concern."

"It's okay to be worth it, or it's okay to be unworthy. There is no wine so intoxicating, no love so fascinating, no crime so irresistible."

"But ... if it's been lost, it's also important to be aware of the loss."

"So sacrificing yourself is not noble. It will just let someone who loves you clean up the mess for you."

"I don't agree with the fate that the starlight will eventually dissipate—"

Kevin held the girl's warm hand and pressed it against Gwen's forehead. The girl could see that his eyes were brightened by some kind of light.

Gwen slowly opened her eyes wide. She could feel the darkness that corroded the starlight in her body being stripped away, and it was slowly drawn to...Kevin?

Wait, could it be! ?

"Kev...Kevin, what are you doing?"

Gwen's throat felt sore and uncomfortable, trying to avoid Kevin's tenderness, trying to push him away.

[Darkness of Death Omen——Belongs to me! 】

"Sorry, Aatrox..." Kevin took a deep breath, his voice was damp and hoarse, echoing in the darkness around him:

"—it belongs to me!"

Then he devours it.

The darkness was fleeting, and Aatrox looked at Kevin in astonishment, remained silent for a while, and finally let out a howling laugh.

【—As a human being, you are really brave, Kevin! 】

"Aren't you angry? I lied to you."

Kevin still had doubts about Aatrox—the murderous intent after transformation made him almost unable to contain the evil in his heart, and Aatrox's thoughts almost overwhelmed him.

It is precisely because we have seen and understood it that we will be wary of it.

[No... because I know it will belong to me sooner or later.And you, Kevin... I'm just—shocked.I am amazed at your courage, you actually took the initiative to meet the corrupt people locked by the death star... You are indeed the human beings I have a crush on. 】

[But—how long can you bear it? 】

"Until time expires."

The brain was in chaos, and it seemed that something was burning in Gwen's heart.That kind of pain was like ugly maggots eroding her flesh and heart, and the dull pain hit her heart again.

"You... what are you doing!!!" Gwen grabbed him and screamed heart-piercingly: "You don't have the power of starlight! You will die!!!"

Even so, he still showed a sincere smile: "This power was not transferred to my body, but by..." Kevin thought for a moment, and then relieved in a half-joking tone: "The parasite .You know? I have a parasite inside me. It eats that power."

【snort!You really have the nerve to say—wait a minute, did you say I'm a parasite? 】

"Yes, this is your new nickname, doesn't it sound nice?"

【Apologize to me! 】

"Why? Don't you think the nickname is cute?"

【Apologize!Apologize!Apologize!Apologize quickly! ! ! 】

"Okay, okay, I apologize, I'm sorry, okay?"

"Send... parasites?" Gwen resisted the choking and soreness in her heart, and tried to make her voice not sound so sour: "Did it give you that kind of strength? So sometimes, Kevin, you Are you talking to yourself for no reason?"

"You can say that." Kevin paused for a moment, and then whispered in Gwen's ear: "If possible, can you keep it a secret for me? Even Lacus and the others can't say it."

"why?"

"Um……?"

The corner of Kevin's mouth evoked a slightly relieved smile, but the current smile made Gwen's heart inexplicably tense, and he could no longer calm down the girl's heart like before.

"--secret."

Star Guardian: Chapter 35 Chapter 35 World Famous Paintings!

"……secret?"

It was so sudden and unexpected that Gwen even wondered if she had a dream—the shadow of death on her arm dissipated in an instant, but erupted on Kevin's body, but disappeared in the next instant...

She stared blankly at the young man in front of her. Although it was only a subtle change, there seemed to be a soft light emanating from her body.

It wasn't until a gentle wind brushed her cheek that Gwen realized that she was still holding Kevin's hand, even holding her breath.

The instinctive enthusiasm of the body made the girl's face slightly rosy.She moved her lips, oscillating between stillness and movement.

Gwen took a deep breath, bowed her head, and hid her face in the shadows.

Her words became staccato, lost in sighs and gasps, losing all meaning.

Finally, she seemed to have made up her mind and clenched her teeth resolutely.

"Your previous promise...was it serious?"

The ethereal voice was full of crispness, as if she was clearing her throat, but she was full of pain - even so, she still had a smile in her eyes.

"Then what?" Kevin's smile was still calm and natural.

In the halo, it was a delicate and flawless cheek, the dark blue eyes seemed to encompass the entire starry sky, and the blue hair was dotted with vast stars.

She tilted her head and ears, as if she was listening to a voice that only she could hear.Wisps of white mist, shimmering, flowed from her fingertips—very faint, almost inaudible.

"why?"

"Because what the heart decides, the mouth cannot answer."

Kevin tilted his head lightly and smiled slightly.

"……Ugh?"

Gwen stared at the boy's handsome face for a long time, the last darkness and turbidity disappeared in the starlight and gentle wind in the eyes as bright as jewels.

The girl spoke incoherently, her hasty smile became weaker and weaker, and finally almost disappeared - after a long time, she slowly wiped away the tears on her face.

She was sad, but happy because of it... It was difficult for even Gwen herself to express what she was like now.

——Perhaps in the already dim heart, there appeared a brilliant starlight again.

Gwen gently stroked her guardian spirit. Whether she didn't know it or noticed it faintly, she still couldn't help showing a gentle smile.

"Then... you must keep your promise!"

Carnival has been destroyed in this storm, and the messy streets are full of wreckage and gravel. People who don't know why can't even see the real body of the storm. When they react, it's over. — as if it were a real nightmare.

Even after going through a lot, the dilapidated scene in front of him still shocked Gwen's heart a lot.

After a moment of silence, a faint light glowed in her chest.

"Kevin, can you close your eyes a little bit?"

"why?"

Gwen opened her mouth, and the words she had just formed were stuck in her throat, she bit her lower lip lightly, and hesitated to speak.

"You—you just do it!!!"

Kevin shrugged, and after sketching a helpless and relieved smile on his face, he just slowly closed his eyes as she wanted.

——Until a warm, moist and sweet touch came from the cold lips.

It seems that that moment is eternity, but reality inevitably returns.

Time trembled again, like a carriage full of goods, slowly and heavily, began to move forward.

The girl's warm breath and superficial kiss end between the eternal and static duet.

【……Wow. 】

"...?"

Kevin opened his eyes in astonishment, and looked at the blushing girl in front of him.

Gwen stared at the boy in front of him and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't make a sound.

She just—showed a quiet smile, lowered her hand silently, and then shifted her gaze to the sword pendant, and said softly.

"thank you too."

【--snort! 】

Aatrox snorted coldly, but the slightly shaking pendant still revealed the fact that it didn't look so calm.

"...Gwen, you just now?"

"Hmm... Am I the first one?"

On a hot summer evening, under the slightly dim warm yellow light, the figures of young girls and young girls shining in the light of the stars and the bright moon are particularly eye-catching.

——And on the edge of darkness and shadows, the girl's wine-red eyes and her starlight were dimmed forever at this moment.

"Kevin..."

—————————————————————

"Kevin! Kevin?! Thank God, are you okay??"

When all the dust settled, the news that Carnival was destroyed by the storm had spread throughout Valoran.

After receiving the news, Fyego immediately put down all the work in his hands and arrived at the carnival as quickly as possible. He finally let go of his long-hanging heart after confirming that his own brother was safe and sound.

"I'm... all right."

Kevin looked a little surprised, but there was still a confident and cheerful smile on his face—is this really Foego?

Kevin couldn't help but have such doubts in his heart.

Because in his impression, the Viego of this universe is someone who will not easily show his innermost emotions... Or in a more popular way, he likes to pretend to be a master without talking, and he is a little cold .

"Gwen, how about you?" Fyego breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at the girl standing next to the boy again: "Are you okay?"

Gwen smiled irrefutablely, and at the same time peeked at Kevin's side face imperceptibly: "I'm fine, Kevin... he protected me very well. Well, very good!"

The cold moonlight shone on Fyego's shoulders, and Kevin seemed to be able to see a trace of...anxiety in his brother's flashing eyes?

And... that anxiety was definitely aimed at me.
