star guardian, but sword devil

Or... don't want to know?

"I have another very important question, Ahri."

Ari moved his lips slightly, raised his head in astonishment, and looked at the young man's face——Kevin looked directly at Ari, with a resolute and decisive tone that seemed unable to tolerate even the slightest lie.

"Your love for me...is it really that kind of love between a man and a woman?"

Panic and uneasiness surged into her heart again, as if they had never disappeared from her heart at all, like the rushing darkness scrambling to eat away at her few souls, trying to drag her into a world of infinity. bottom of the abyss.

Ari arched his body slightly, covered his face with his hands, and didn't know whether he was laughing, crying...or both?

She doesn't know either.

Ari's eyes were a little absent-minded, she gently held the corner of her clothes with her hands, but she still showed a calm and peaceful smile on her beautiful and dignified face—it's just a pity that no one noticed the forced smile for a moment Fleeting stiffness and hesitation.

"Don't you think, Xiaokai... I do all this just to pass the boring time? This... This is really..."

Ari vaguely felt a trickle seeping from the dam of his mind, this trickle was washing away the dam, and the tiny crack was gradually expanding...

Ari tried her best to suppress her choking, and breathed softly, but in the end, Ari, who was somewhat unable to control herself, could no longer suppress her emotions, and her trembling voice with a little anger rippling in this deserted forest path open.

"Bastard! Kevin! You bastard! Why... why are you asking such cruel questions? Why are you asking me such questions at this time! You think I'm weird and overzealous, don't you? Think I'm frivolous , do you? You think I'm cheaper than the other girls around you, is that right?"

Ahri's roar was mixed with a trace of anger, making the surrounding world seem to freeze at this moment.

"—That's because I don't have time at all, you bastard Kevin! Why are you asking me at this time!!!"

There is always a tendency for Ahri to over-interpret Kevin’s ambiguous tone of voice—even though his face still has a gentle smile on his face, it seems… there is something tumbling and unreasonable hidden under the smile. known emotions.

Ahri, who was always gentle and elegant, had a wonderful and alluring face that was filled with pain and restlessness at this moment.

Although the previously suppressed emotions in the bottom of my heart were constantly smoldering, they were stopped by an invisible dam, showing a tolerable static state.

With the passage of time, the depressed emotions are also rising day by day, and the bank is about to burst. The grievances and loneliness gathered together in the past years are like a fire burning in the wilderness. The resentment accumulated in the bottom of her heart has surpassed her. acceptable limit.

"Bastard! Bastard! You—bastard!"

"Asshole... ah."

"Woo...you idiot."

"Yes, I'm sorry...I...I don't know what's wrong with me..."

Not knowing who she was blaming in a low voice, Ahri slumped on the ground decadently, trying to suppress her choking, sobbing silently while covering her face.

——After all, isn’t all of this my wishful thinking?

What is that now?

What am I doing?

What is the relationship of wishful thinking, asking others to pay for me, and letting him understand me?

Really, what am I longing for?

A miracle, it is something that even life cannot compensate!

The sound of people is still, and the sound of nature is silent, like lying in a broken watch, listening horizontally and vertically, but there is no sound.

Ahri suppressed the pain, and stood up tremblingly from the ground again, which also made Kevin's heart twitch violently.

"So that's the case, is that so? Now that's the case, I understand." Kevin paused for a while, and gently closed his eyes, until finally he breathed a sigh of relief, and then showed a relieved smile: "Ahri ,I--"

But before Kevin finished speaking, the material world around him was distorted by some powerful gravitational force, accompanied by a loud explosion that resounded through the sky, followed by Nocturne's ghostly sneer.

When the wind stopped blowing and Ahri opened his tearful eyes, the material world had long since disappeared, replaced by the familiar and strange barrier space.It's like breaking into someone's nightmare, that creepy world, and it's a bad feeling to realize that one's own existence is infinitely small.

A chill ran up Ari's spine, and she struggled to get up from the ground. Although the confusion and unwillingness in her heart were still there, she gritted her teeth and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, accompanied by a shining starlight, Ahri becomes the Star Guardian.

— but without the momentum of victory.

There was never a victorious vibe.

Although I am not reconciled, good results cannot be obtained simply by accumulating correct events... That's why happiness goes farther and farther.

Not for anyone, but for your own desire to fight on.

Even if no one notices, even if it is forgotten, there is no way to do it.

And... if you give up, that's the end of it.

As if mocking himself, that smile seemed to bow down to fate and despair.

Although this is a hopeless world that keeps repeating sorrow and hatred.

After all, this was once the world that all the Star Guardians fought for.

——I will keep this in mind and never give up.

Even in prison, into the boundless darkness.

Nocturne looked at her——with a flick of a finger, Ahri's attack was resolved. It didn't take the initiative to attack, but stared at her with interest——Ahri was stunned for a moment, and Nocturne caught the fleeting moment. By chance, a pitch-black thorn pierced Ahri's body.

But it didn't cause any physical damage, but... Gradually merged into Ahri's body.

Ahri shuddered, and then Nocturne's silhouette melted into the shadow of the world.In an instant, Nocturne was gone, vanishing without a trace in the growing darkness.

Ari knelt down on the ground, Xiaoxi screamed in horror beside her, wait a moment, a thin black mist spewed out from between Ari's lips, something other than chaos, was moving along her body Only the heart erodes towards the body.

"Is the backlash so fast? It seems that it will really find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack while I am restless. I thought...at least I can survive this date."

Ari held the star gem that was still exuding faint starlight and was about to be swallowed by darkness, with a sad and reluctant expression, and his eyes were already a little red: "I'm really sorry, Xiaokai. It's all my fault, and it's still like this I lost my temper with you willfully, and I couldn't even say sorry to you in the end. Well, there is also you Xiaoxi, I'm sorry..."

She understood that this was the end.

"I hope Syndra can fulfill her promise as promised..."

Ari lay down in this dark world, his mind was blank.She felt that she seemed to remember something in this short moment, but when she recalled it carefully, it was empty.

She became a huge, cold and dead nothing, until her reason had nothing to do with her, looking up at this world deeper than darkness, she murmured in a low voice.

"Please, God, I have experienced this kind of life...Please let me have a happy dream..."

She knew that in the starry sky that she couldn't see with naked eyes, countless stars were dotted in it.

They were so close to her, as if hanging from the treetops, within reach.

He stroked the girl's face gently and cautiously.Despite the exhaustion, the touch made her tense after so long of weakness, after being held again in such a warm embrace.There was no need for her to open her eyes, there was absolutely no possibility of admitting to that familiar aura.

"Xiaokai? I'm so sorry..." Even though his breathing was weaker than that of Breeze, Ari still smiled at him.She opened her eyes, as if she wanted to engrave his appearance in her mind, as if she wanted to keep it in the future and forever: "But... now is not the time to eat my tofu, if you don't leave here quickly, something will happen Horrible thing. Hurry up and leave, otherwise... Senior, I'm really going to get angry."

"Stop trying to be brave."

"……Ugh?"

Ari stared blankly at the young man in front of him, brushed his messy hair from his forehead, and smiled bitterly: "What nonsense are you talking about again? Anyway, hurry... get out of here quickly, do you hear me? "

"Why are you leaving?"

"Now is not the time to be a hero." Ari touched his hand with his fingers, squeezed it tightly, and showed a sweet smile with all his strength: "However, about the question you asked me just now... Actually, I really don't like it." I really like you, Xiao Kai. I have been paying attention to you since you were in junior high school at Valoran College."

"Is that so? It seems that senior, do you like the juvenile department?" Kevin tilted his head and smiled.But Ari's bleak smile made him feel very uncomfortable: "But do you think this ending is really good? Think about those who cherish you, give me enough. If you lose you, someone will be sad, why don't you Understand, what should those who want to protect you do?"

Ari smiled weakly and said, "Isn't this the best ending? This is the fate of the Star Guardians... an inescapable fate. We, born of starlight, must disappear completely before sending a curse to the world .”

She wanted to show the aura of a senior in the usual way as before, so as to comfort Kevin, who was a little twisted and ups and downs.

"There is no such thing as fate, everything is nothing more than a test, punishment or compensation!"

"If you're being handsome now, it's really a bit of a foul." Ari's tears flowed from her eyes with a smile, and she tried her best to raise the corners of her lips to show a relieved smile: "If it's possible... I really want to be here Kiss you. And—hiss! Xiaokai, you should go. If you don’t go, it will be really dangerous! I beg you!!!”

I don't know if the flame is extinguished, or the eyes are covered.

In short, the storm began to recede.

"I am not in danger. I am in danger!"

The young man stretched out his hand, gently holding the fox girl's face, and holding her hand tightly, with a gentle smile on his face as always: "Everyone who has fought against the forces of darkness so far, and the guardian of the stars who believe in hope, I don't want to make them cry anymore, I hope they can laugh till the end. Any law that gets in the way of these, I will break it and rewrite it!"

Ali's eyes filled with tears.She saw nothing but darkness behind Kevin—maybe it wasn't pitch black.At least a little sporadic fluorescence is present.

"You...what the hell are you talking about?"

"I will fight fate."

In his eyes, Ahri saw his trembling reflection slowly approaching, and kissed her lips lightly.

With her eyes closed, the world around her seemed to disappear, only his lips kissing her, and her hands hugging her tightly and hugging her gently.

The sun hugs the earth tightly, and the moonlight kisses the sea waves.

The corruption on Ahri's body dissipated in an instant, but broke out on Kevin's body.

"—Then, I'll show you the win!"

PS: I wrote this chapter for a day!

Finally gave a satisfactory answer - at least I think it's okay.

Although I'm slower... But for the sake of quality, I must go all out to treat each chapter. If it's just a pile of volume... In fact, I can do it, but it definitely seems almost meaningless.

In the last few days, I should update it for a while, if I don’t work hard to update, my half-year award will be gone...

Star Guardian: Chapter 110 Chapter [-] Please watch my transformation carefully! [Don't jump! 】

There was a little chill in the wind, and hell ensued.

The desperate sigh continued to echo——suddenly, there was a dull sound somewhere.It was a roar like the foundation of the world was leaking.

The place under his feet suddenly lost its shape, and he seemed to fall into a bottomless world.A world that seems to be sinking in deep mud, so light——it’s not bad to keep falling like this, I thought.

until--

"I will fight fate!"

"—And then, I'll show you the win!"

Ari opened his eyes slightly, staring blankly at the young man who was burning in nothingness.He lowered his head, as if turning a blind eye to the burning of his soul, then raised his head with a slight smile, staring at Ahri's dazzling amber eyes.

"What... what's going on?"

Ahri's voice was trembling, and even though the girl had tried her best to control her emotions, she could still hear the cry contained in it.

She waited for his answer: no matter what the answer was, even if it was the most insignificant reaction, even if everything in front of her was really just an illusory dream... so what?

——As long as he is by my side is enough!

"Things that come uninvited and leave without saying goodbye, but even if they meet each other only once, even if they are too faint to be noticed, it is an important encounter that can support the soul." Kevin gently wiped the girl away. Tears on the face.His voice was very soft, but it was still able to reach her ears just right: "And you, Ari... It's better to say that you are unrepeatable than to say that you are beautiful. You are too kind, but don't forget that this kindness has its own meaning." There may be greater grief in return."

Ahri's reaction was not as intense as expected, it was like a gentle breeze, she just looked at Kevin silently, and it lasted for a long time - in the extremely dark world, no one could clearly see her current expression .

Until the starlight shone faintly softly in the corners of her eyes.

"Kai...Kevin, what are you doing...what are you doing—what are you doing!" Ari frowned in pain, moved his lips slightly at a loss, and tried to force the words out of his throat. A voice came: "You're going to die——you're going to die!!!"

With a mortal body, what kind of price will be paid when exposed to that level of darkness, how could Ahri not know?

Ahri's shoulders trembled slightly, like a breeze blowing through withered dead leaves.Like a frightened kitten, its body trembled slightly while weeping.

Feeling bad.

Swallowed by darkness, drowned by despair, until the soul is also annihilated in a long time...

That was my end.

It shouldn't be his end!

Kevin shook his head lightly, and held her hand—corruption flames were burning in his body, and countless black flames were burning this distorted space, converging behind him into a hell burning with dark flames .This is pure corruption.

Even so, Ahri's starlight is still as bright as stars.

When her eyes met the light, the hotness in her body became more intense, it was hard to describe this feeling, it was a kind of... as if her heart was tightly held by a giant hand full of barbs pain.

"I will not die. I promised you—I will trample fate under my feet."

He answered softly.Even though he was in excruciating pain, his voice was bright...and gentle.

"You burn yourself to protect the world, what about the person who protects you? What would he think?"

Corruption had spread to every inch of his body.Even so, he showed a sincere smile,

Ahri's body trembled like a leaf, and even her voice became no longer ethereal: "Is there...is there such a person?"

"Maybe it wasn't there before, but now it is."

The crying that had already stopped broke out again at this moment.
