But, are we going to just watch Aurora gamble on a one in a million chance when she's almost going to lose everything?

……

"Listen, Pojun, heroes like you, their success is often not just due to luck."

"If a dragon slayer wants to kill a dragon, he needs scouts to find the dragon first, craftsmen to create a weapon powerful enough to break the dragon's scales, and instructors to teach the skills to the dragon slayer who has yet to achieve his feat."

“To create an ideal country, people need to come up with a unified goal. Only by relying on the talents of many people and paving the way on many roads can we find a little bit of the right path.”

“So-called heroes are often not created simply by rushing into action on impulse.”

"They must have a will that is enough to determine victory or defeat, and the countless coincidences of everything helping them achieve greatness."

"So, Po Jun."

"If one day,"

"You met a guy who was just one step away from being a hero."

"Just try to be the final touch to that logical legend!"

“Even if we cannot become heroes, we can still witness the glory of heroes.”

"So, for us who are touched by this brilliance, isn't this also a success?"

……

Time was almost stopped as Yang Weiwu thought at an accelerated speed, and he closed his eyes.

……

In the meditation space where the flow rate was greatly different from that of the outside world, the golden emperor let go of his mount from the sky, then fell down. His body flipped over under the influence of his willpower and he kicked Aurora on the back.

The powerful attack directly penetrated Aurora and Nagisa Akatsuki's bodies, breaking them into pieces.

"Again."

Yang Weiwu declared this.

Then the scene returned to the state just now when the Emperor was still riding the Imperial Horse in the air.

Once again, he let go of the Emperor Horse, allowing himself to fall and kick.

But this time, he used telekinesis to freeze Aurora's body.

The rhino-leg-like combat boots pierced through Aurora's body and also opened a hole in Akatsuki Nagisa's body.

"Again."

……

He repeated it over and over again, just to find the right finishing touch that would allow Aurora to "herself" save her friend.

And the answer is not far away for him to successfully escape from the Shadow Emperor.

After coming out of the meditative state, he released the Emperor Horse in the super-accelerated state just as he did in meditation.

The golden light gathered at the fingertips, and then cut out four sharp rays.

【Golden Gesu】

That was the lowest-powered Jin Zhi Ge Su, which could only cut off the flesh of an ordinary person after being suppressed by him.

But that was just enough.

Aurora's torso and limbs separated, and her entire torso broke free from its restraints and fell toward the origin.

The slightly small fangs seemed to be brought close to the opponent and fell on Yuanchu's neck.

"Pfft-"

This is the sound of fangs piercing flesh and blood, and it is also the sound that announces the defeat of the original.

The long golden hair that was sparkling with rainbow light gradually dimmed and turned back to its original black color, and the bluish-white flaming eyes also became silent.

The eleven beasts fighting in the air wailed as they were torn apart by the Emperor of Light, and turned into magic power that flowed into Aurora and Zaharias.

Yang Weiwu stood quietly by the side, watching Aurora's body being repaired by the huge magic power and her own immortality as if time was going backwards.

"Wei Wu..."

Before her body had fully recovered, the girl looked at him with tears in her eyes.

"Well, I'm here."

"I may not be able to go to Caihai to study."

"I don't really care about school. If you want to go, go. If you don't want to go, I can help you with the paperwork."

"Maybe no one will make you a midnight snack in the future."

"I can buy it myself."

"Maybe no one will drag you to an amusement park that you have no interest in."

"This is still a good thing, after all, there are so many people in the amusement park that it's hard to enjoy it."

"Haha!" Aurora burst into laughter. "That's right. Weiwu is not as useless as me. He can live well even if he is alone."

"Mature adults are always more independent than children, or in other words, learning to be independent is the first step for children to become adults."

"...Then, I may never become an adult."

"People have to learn to grow up and become independent. As long as you are alive, this is inevitable. You can't avoid it by saying you can't do it."

The Golden Emperor told Aurora these words according to the teachings of his elders in his memory.

"But I'm dying."

Aurora thought about what tone she would use to say such words to Yang Weiwu after she made the choice to cannibalize her own people. The result was calmer than she expected, and she even smiled.

"I sealed the Fourth True Ancestor and saved my friends."

"But I only have two options: seal myself or die here today."

"And the seal will be broken one day, and I don't want to lose my spirit to the Fourth True Ancestor one day and forget about you."

"So, I am willing to let my life stay at this moment forever."

[135] Feast of Flames ()

It is true that Aurora was created as a special matrix to seal the Fourth True Ancestor.

But if she really had the power to execute the Fourth True Ancestor, there would be no need for the Heavenly Department to keep a weapon that could betray her, right?

In fact, Aurora knew this through her blood memory from the moment the Origin was taken away from Akatsuki Nagisa's body along with her familiars through cannibalism.

So she also understood that if she still wanted to follow the values ​​and morals she learned from Yang Weiwu, the only way out was self-destruction.

Because no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't kill an immortal soul.

Expelling the other party will only allow a monster with greater control over the familiar to be free.

Live with pride.

This is the most important thing Aurora has learned from Yang Weiwu, and it is also a sense of morality that would become a curse only in her situation.

The golden emperor looked at her, and the crimson eye armor dimmed slightly.

As if to affirm her choice.

This is the best, isn't it?

Yang Weiwu can return to his own world with peace of mind, and Aurora doesn't have to say goodbye to him and create painful and lonely memories.

Everyone got the ideal ending, it was basically a happy ending!

Warm liquid dripped from the corners of her eyes. Aurora lowered her head silently and let out a low sob.

"You're crying."

“That’s rainwater.”

"Then why are you shaking?"

"Anyone would feel cold if they were wearing this kind of clothes in the rain until now!"

"That's not what you say when you eat seven scoops of ice cream."

Yang Weiwu exposed her lie without giving her any face.

"..."

Aurora took a deep breath, then suddenly raised her head, and for the first time in history, her red eyes looked at Yang Weiwu fiercely.

"Oh! Yes! I'm crying!"

"I'm sad because I can't eat seven-ball ice cream anymore!"

"I'm sad for everyone who won't be seeing Stile anymore!"

"I'm sad and upset because the academy life that you worked so hard for me for so long and that Nagisa and I have been looking forward to for so long is gone!"

"I'm sad because I won't be able to see you anymore!"

"I'm...crying because I'm afraid of dying!"

"Why can't you sometimes stop pretending to be a straight man who knows nothing when you clearly know what I'm thinking and imitate others to care about me and comfort me!"

"I also want to... learn from everyone else and express my feelings to you, the one I like!"

The girl trembled and cried, and the volume of her voice gradually broke as she spoke her true feelings.

"..."

Yang Weiwu took out a dry towel from the magic-sealing sticker he carried with him, and used the power of the Five Elements to gather rainwater to heat it, wet the towel, and then wrung it dry.

Then the man cleaned Aurora's entire face using the rough wiping method copied from his old father, without considering whether the snot or something would get on the towel and the entire face.

"I'm a pretty bad guy."

He said this while wiping Aurora's face.

"I prefer to see girls in a mess after a fight or crying out of sadness rather than smiling."

"That sounds really bad, right? My dad used to say that, too."

"My dad also complained that I would probably only be like him in the future, a guy who relies on his looks to get his body but not his heart, and who contributes more to society by being single than harming girls."

"Of course that guy would still go and cause trouble for girls if he was single, so I think he is far worse than me."

"My family gave me a lot of advice on my hobby, and finally came to a conclusion."

"If one day, I meet a girl who I can't help but want to see cry..."

Aurora's attention was drawn to that, and she ignored part of the original mental attack.

"Then learn to be like a normal person and chase that girl."

"You're lying! What you said was that you had found that girl to cause trouble!"

"So you really did look at my memories without my permission."

"That...that's force majeure!"

Although her tone was somewhat excited, her increasingly low voice still exposed Aurora's guilty conscience.

Throwing the towel away casually, Yang Weiwu patted the girl's face.

"So, if that's what you're going to do, here's my answer."

"Eh!?"

So what? How? What?

Aurora's brain froze for a moment, and she didn't even dare to think about what the other party meant.

Yes, yes, yes, yes...Are you going to agree to my confession that I haven't said yet? ! ! !

"Boom-"

The powerful knife strike landed on her head, causing Aurora to let out a small cry of surprise.

"If you want to live proudly, see more beauty, and enjoy an infinite future, just ask me."
