Welcome to the Nightmare Games Book 2 - Chapter 148
Aya stood silently by the lake of fire, waiting.
She knew that there was a wedding for two in the cave not far away, and she also knew that there would be a farewell for two in that cave. This was a long-term doomed thing. When Ning Zhou took Qi Leren from Yongwu Town to the underground ant city and promised to convene the old part of the old demon king, she understood–her Majesty decided to go to the demon world.
She could have gone to the wedding, witnessed the wedding of a loved one, or even acted as emcee, but she had already known the end and chose to give up-she could not bear to see them apart.
So she waited here, and didn’t even enter the cave to meet the Demon Lord like her colleagues. She just waited here, watching the burning flames in the lake of fire, silent for the moment’s pain.
There was also the Witch of Nothingness. She never opened her eyes, but “looked at” the flame in front of her.
“It’s burning there,” whispered the Void Witch.
Aya glanced at her.
“In that cave, the hot love burned with pain, dazzling and desperate.” The Witch Whispered, “But what’s the point of this? What’s the point of a life dominated by these emotions? His Majesty can clearly transcend these passions and desires and move closer to the source indefinitely, but he always resists. In order to fulfill the love of the nuns, he personally ruined the path to the supreme. This is ridiculous and too sad . “
“If the price of becoming God is to give up even your own happiness, then why become God?” Aya asked rhetorically.
“For strength, unparalleled strength,” said the Witch Wraith suddenly.
“But what’s the point of strength if you can’t protect the one you love the most?” Aya really didn’t understand. She didn’t want to forget her original stumbled person in the pursuit of strength.
“Emotions are meaningless, and strength itself is meaning!” Said the Witch of Nothingness.
Aya suddenly didn’t want to argue anymore. She just wanted to use her own strength to make her people live a happy life. She also wanted to use her own strength to help her Majesty and Qile people.
If power cannot protect the people who matter to you, then power is meaningless. For her, power is only a means, it has never been meaning.
She believes that the same is true of Ning Zhou.
He never lived for strength, he lived for love. Love for people, love for the world, love for faith, that gentle and extreme light, the brighter and brighter it is in the dark.
Footsteps came from the cave, and Ning Zhou walked out with the old part of the old demon king and went to the underground ant city without a word.
Aya looked at the tears on Ning Zhou’s face in shock, she couldn’t imagine what kind of pain would make this man cry. She didn’t dare to think, watching Qi Leren who Ning Zhou left, how she felt at this moment.
The journey, as silent as a funeral, did not take them to the demon world.
The devastating Demon King came to the Royal Palace of the Dragon Ant Queen and paused briefly. He refused everyone’s visit, but borrowed the mirror of the Void Witch, looked at Qi Leren through it, and waited until the illusionist reached the underground Ant City, and took away the Qi Leren.
He finally stepped out of the tower, but did not announce his departure to the Demon Realm, but left the Dragon Ant Queen’s palace alone.
Aya followed him silently without asking where he was going, which may be why she wasn’t kicked out.
They walked through the streets of the underground ant city and walked in this underground city pool like the most ordinary residents. This is just the most mundane day in the underground ant city. There are no festivals, no celebrations, and no assemblies. All the sounds of worldly hustle and bustle flow here. It is the same as before and different from the past.
Aya silently looked at the back of Ning Zhou. She knew that Her Majesty’s arrival in the underground Ant City after being exiled by the Holy See was the lonely journey that allowed them to meet in the vast wasteland. She took over his teaching and also Taken over the responsibilities he has to bear. She was sent to the Queen’s Palace, and was fortunately selected as the Virgin of the Flame, and would serve her Queen in the dark all her life.
But fate is so wonderful. In this unpredictable crazy age, an illiterate orphan girl in a desert tribe has become the supreme queen of this underground city.
This was even more crazy than the craziest dreams. She was disorientated for a time. She faced with terrible power, huge palaces, crowds, and trembled so that she could not open her mouth. She knew that she was not enough to bear this responsibility. She was not sure to take her people to a better future, but if she didn’t work hard, this underground city would be doomed to be dragged into darkness.
The devil of power and the devil of deception have long been eyeing this fat, and the demons who have all kinds of original powers run rampant in the gloomy lower city. These forces continue to eat away at her original order. If she does not fight back hard, her Sooner or later the field will be brought down.
Once in that position, her life is not just her own.
She maintains order, clears up obstacles, sweeps out darkness. An understatement will cause countless bloodshed and death. This is too cruel and terrible for a young girl who has never left the tribe for eighteen years. A little Mistakes would kill the innocent, and such fear and guilt made her feel uneasy all night. She studied hard and tried to reduce her mistakes, but she was too young after all, and her powerful strength did not make her mature enough.
A city makes her mentally troubled, not to mention Ning Zhou, who is about to face the entire demon world. He will test each other with two deep-rooted demon kings, fight the old demon king’s old ministry, and fight against his own original power … The situation he faces will only be thousands of times more difficult than her.
What’s more … he left his lover.
One of them will fight in the demon world, and the other will stand in the land of the dusk. Their respective responsibilities are destined to have their own side. Ning Zhou will not let Qi Leren come to the demon world, the demon world does not welcome humans like him, and the other two demon kings must have followed him early. Once Qi Leren left the land of dusk, the danger he faced doubled. A little carelessness is the fall.
Only wait until Ning Zhou annexed the demon world, or Qi Leren condensed into an incarnation.
An incarnation of freedom can take his place from the dusk and do what he wants.
Through the streets and alleys of the underground Ant City, Ning Zhou and Aya came to a supply point in the underground Ant City. This is one of the few places in the Ant City that has contact with the outside world. All the items and letters will be transferred here. .
Aya saw Ning Zhou walk in, gave her number plate to the staff in front of the counter, the staff found a letter from his mailbox and gave it to him.
Whose letter is this?
Aya stepped forward in confusion, but saw Ning Zhou’s eyes staring forward without focus, as if she was caught in an endless thought.
At that time, Ning Zhou did not know the news of Qi Leren’s resurrection. When he came to the underground Ant City, he wrote a letter to Chen Baiqi, and then went to purgatory. Unexpectedly, at that time, Qi Leren had returned to the hometown of dusk, read his letter to Chen Baiqi, and then wrote a reply. It was quietly sealed in the transfer station and was not taken away. until today.
Aya glanced at the sender’s name on the envelope and asked in surprise: “Don’t you look?”
Ning Zhou lowered his head, carefully opened the envelope, and looked while walking.
The cold underground wind passed through the city, and a large group of flame butterflies from the ground-stitched holy flames waved in the wind. Ning Zhou, who was walking in the crowd, quietly read this long-distance letter. The mood of rejoicing in the future for the reunion in the future kept jumping out of the paper, making the writing in front of him more and more blurred.
——I like the straw ring very much, and I want to give it back to you.
The wind went farther and farther, and flew toward the unknown place with the flame butterfly.
Aya looked at Ning Zhou, who was about to disappear from the crowd. The humans and demons who came and went did not know. On this day, they passed by a sad Demon Lord of Destruction.
The whole city is so busy, the secular peace and tranquility are precipitated in this secular picture. Those happy, unhappy, loved, and not loved people are trying their best to survive. One thing that couldn’t be simpler has exhausted them.
There are too many pedestrians, too many voices, too many stories in this bustling street. No one cares about a stranger who looks at the letter and shed tears.
Only Aya knows that this is an unending story, about waiting, about faith, and about love.
