Star Guardian: Chapter 112 Chapter 4 Deeper than despair, hotter than hope [[-]K! 】

The light melted the darkness through a large hole.

A figure stood against the flames. It was a tall warrior with dark purple flames all over his body... a demon?

Lux squinted her eyes, and saw that he was holding a sharp sword in his lowered hand, with the cold light of the omen of death, the scarlet light of the sword—wait... the thing dancing on the hilt of the sword... was its heart?

Lux stared at 'Kevin' blankly, her jewel-like eyes seemed to see through the 'strange warrior' in front of her.

——And his voice... Could it be my illusion?

No.

Not Kevin.

I must be hallucinating.

Lux's face became a little pale, and she took a step back holding the unconscious Gwen in her arms with a complicated expression.

Syndra, who was hiding in the shadows, narrowed her eyes slightly, and an intriguing smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

Sarah and Jinx, who were standing aside, could not help noticing the sudden intruder. After a short shock, they quickly came back to their senses, and sighed with complicated expressions.

Although they didn't know the true identity of the strange warrior in front of them, there was no doubt that he was not their enemy.

A depressing hiss almost penetrated the marrow of everyone present.

Nocturne roared unwillingly.

What emotion is it expressing?

anger?Still unwilling?

Or... No one can believe in the future, no one can accept the future?

do not know.

Nobody knows.

Perhaps even it itself has forgotten its former glory and starlight.

Kevin grinned, revealing a bitter smile under the armor that no one could peek at——if the Star Guardian would give birth to the Devourer, wouldn't everyone's fate be destroyed in the end?

And how many times can I save them?

His heart was in severe pain, and the rotten fire eroded his soul.

Endless reincarnation...

What should I do?

A long breath spit out from his mouth, with the same mind, Kevin is obviously ready to fight.

There is no need for any hesitation and hesitation, and there is no need for any self-pity.

——From the moment I fell into the abyss and held Kiatrox, I no longer know what I cherish and what I guard.

But if you give up, that's the end of it, right?

At least, I promised her.

【You can change your destiny, Kevin.The unavoidable destruction and sigh, everything can be subverted by you, you have the power born for it. 】

"Are you trying to comfort me, Aatrox?"

[You can understand it this way. 】

"Is that so..."

Kevin smiled faintly, and waved his sword to disperse the chaos and darkness around him. In the end, there was no trace of a smile as he expected, and there was a burst of cold and biting murderousness in his scarlet eyes.

Immediately, he did not hesitate at all!

Bang!

Kevin crushed the ground under his feet, and he rushed straight like a thunderbolt, and the howling wind tore the surrounding world.

And the next moment, a dark purple stream of light burst out from Nocturne's copper bell-like eyes, opened its huge mouth like a beast, and roared to the sky. This amazing roar even shook the foundation of the world, making people feel as if they were The world is collapsing.

Feeling the oncoming sound wave impact, Kevin remained in the same mind, without flinching at all. The scarlet sword pointed directly at Nightmare's chest, stepping on the gust of wind, and his speed continued to increase under the blessing of the omen of death. A series of scarlet afterimages were left on the way.

Before Nocturne could even react, Kevin's figure had already stalked him.

"--Roar!"

But at this moment, Nocturne seemed to have a premonition of the danger, and let out a terrifying roar, and the deadly twin knives ignited a corrupt fire, and collided with the scarlet giant sword.In an instant, Kevin felt a burst of resistance from the blade, and sparks flew non-stop.

"Tsk...have you become stronger?"

Kevin's pupils shrank slightly, and he suddenly felt a terrifying wind pressure coming from his side, and he saw a deadly arc from the corner of his eyes.Before the offensive came, the strong wind that was set off even completely tore the ground under his feet.Kevin didn't dare to stay longer, and immediately stepped back.It's just that as soon as he left, the space he was in was cut by Nocturne, and there was a sound similar to the shattering of glass.

Landing smoothly from mid-air, Kevin looked at the space that had been cut into nothingness, and his body couldn't help feeling a little cold.

- Terrible destructive power.

How...how did it become so strong?

Just relying on pure brute force is enough to cut the space apart.

What a monster.

Lux and the others looked dumbfounded, and Syndra also showed an unexpected look, and then her face became much gloomy.

It seems that I underestimated the power of the Devourer...

"What... what should we do?" Jinx opened her mouth in astonishment.

Lacus bit her lower lip tightly, looking at the two figures constantly flickering in the battlefield, she didn't know what to do for a while.

"Get out of here." Syndra walked over, with an unquestionable tone behind her indifferent attitude: "You guys staying here will only add trouble to him."

"But...but can't we also fight?" Lux raised her head and said impatiently: "At least, we can also share part of the pressure!"

Syndra shook her head, without any emotion in her eyes, she just looked at the young guardian indifferently: "No. You can't do it."

"Huh? Why?"

Syndra knelt down, caressing Gwen's cheek, with a flash of nostalgia in her eyes: "Because, your starlight... will only increase its power."

"what?"

Even Sarah's eyes widened.

What does it mean... our starlight only grows in its power?

Syndra sighed softly, removed her hands from Gwen's cheeks, and then resumed the look of no one entering, staring at the two fiercely fighting figures in the battlefield, and said.

"Because for it, the Star Guardian is an easy prey. Just like a poisonous snake is a natural enemy of a mouse, the Star Devourer is a natural enemy of the Star Guardian."

"The... devourer of the stars?"

Lacus stood there in a daze, a little bit dumbfounded which was rare.

——Isn't this name the one that Ari told me before... the final fate of the guardian?

"Otherwise, how do you think Gwen was defeated? As the first-generation Star Guardian, her power... Well, it is even more shining than Ahri. So, if you want to continue to live, Get me out of the battlefield immediately."

"The first-generation Star Guardian?" Sarah widened her pupils a little, covered her mouth with her hands, and made an unbelievable look: "Wait, Syndra, how do you know this thing?" matter? What is your identity—”

"When the time is right, I will naturally confess to everyone."

After saying this, Syndra didn't look at any of them, but focused her gaze on Kevin.

——Poor Kevin, how long can you struggle with the fire that burns with your remnant body?

Finally, Syndra left the dark realm with the others.

The starlight will eventually dissipate, and the burning flames... will also succumb to the darkness.

—————————————————————

The momentum of a thousand weights is broken in an instant, and the speed of splitting the sky is in a flash.

Nocturne let out a wail, unfolded his dark body, and opened the pair of broad, vicious blades at the end of his arms.It flew up like light smoke without a sound, and with its body, it rushed towards Kevin like a crossbow arrow.

Almost in the blink of an eye, he was already beheaded in front of Kevin, and at the same time cut directly to the neck, as if vowing to kill him with one blow!

The rapid attack of the mountains and tsunami never stopped at all, and the double blades that could cut through the space were much more dexterous than imagined. It seemed chaotic, but in fact, every slash would be more fierce and swift than the previous one.

Although Kevin tried his best to dodge and resist, but after Nocturne's "deadly rhythm" was fully stacked, every attack and defense of him was ignored in the eyes of Nocturne, and the slashing of the knife after another was sharp on him. The shock caused his body to ache and his footsteps were unsteady.

"Well--!"

However, in just a few rounds, Kevin's initiative was taken away by incomparable arrogance, and he could only passively accept this slashing like a storm.

Even though Kevin wanted to rely on his own strength to fight back, Nocturne didn't show any flaws at all.The ghostly body with eyes like black mist, every slash and angle of appearance was unexpected by Kevin, and he was tired of defending, and gradually fell into decline.

--boom!

Kevin, who was split and sent flying by Nocturne's blow, quickly backed up, and the scorched black ravine of more than ten meters was forcibly plowed off his feet on the ground.

[I can't continue to be passive like this anymore!Ahhhh—Kevin, fight back! 】

"I have already done my best!"

A trace of blood oozed from the corner of Kevin's mouth—whether it was caused by the backlash of the omen of death, or by Nocturne's fierce offensive like a storm.

He didn't know, he just felt... his body became more and more stiff.

Probably Ahri's power of omen of death is gradually affecting my body.

Am I going to die?

Do not!

it's not finished yet!

My heart is still beating!

Facing the roaring Nocturne attacking again, Kevin let out a roar not to be outdone, stomping on the ground with one foot, and the scarlet flames instantly burned on the blade of his sword. The speed greeted him.

"whispering sound--!"

But just when they were about to collide, the severe pain in his heart caused Kevin's face to change suddenly, and he couldn't help letting out a dull cry of pain, and took a breath.

His charging momentum was also affected by this, and he fell to his knees directly. Even Aatrox fell to the ground because of this, and the armor on his body turned into scarlet light and dissipated in an instant, causing the entire A person's mind froze for a brief moment.

Nocturne would not give Kevin any chance to react, the deadly blade came along with the howling wind.

boom--!

Aatrox suddenly burst out with a mighty power like a god, and Kevin, who opened his mouth and closed his eyes, could only hear the whistling wind coming from his ears, followed by the loud sound of metal and iron colliding.The scarlet and wide giant sword smashed Nocturne into the air.

[Please don't let me fall to the ground! 】

"Hug, sorry."

Kevin coughed out a mouthful of blood, grabbed Aatrox again, and stood up from the ground relying on the support of the blade.Although Kevin knew that he had to adjust his state now, his eyes turned black for a while, and his body seemed to be torn apart, which made him unable to gather his spirit at all.

【Your body is collapsing!Because of the power of the omen of death you hastily absorbed, your body has become tattered!In the middle of the battle, I can't distract myself to suppress the speed of erosion!Your body is no longer suitable for supporting high-intensity battles. If you want to continue to live for a while, then quit the battlefield for me! 】

The remaining blood overflowed from the mouth, and slowly dripped down the corner of the mouth to the white shirt, until it was dyed the color of blood—not bright red, but black like corruption.

"When did you become such a mother-in-law, Aatrox?"

Kevin's breath became very sluggish, he wiped off the blood stains at the corner of his mouth, took a big gulp of fresh air, and stared at Nocturne in the darkness.

It is howling.

it is crying.

It's twitching in despair.

The fate of all Guardians—death—or...becoming it.

【Do you want to die? 】

"Of course I don't want to." The cool wind blew across Kevin's cheeks, and the burning fire shone on the boy's face: "But if I give up now, wouldn't it be the end? I promised her that I would defeat fate. If it is here Stop, isn't my previous oath a joke? I want to save their starlight."

【Just because of this illusory oath? 】
