Ark, they don't revolve around you

She shook the hand and asked a stupid question.

"You, aren't you afraid?"

Zhuang Ning was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed: "I'm scared."

"But many times, even if we are afraid, we have to face it."

He was like an old poet, looking at the withering and decaying plants and saying in a low voice: "Because that is our fate."

And in the darkness he could not see.

In the empty hall, the woman covered her face, suppressed her breath, and suppressed the smile on her face.

But I could still see her face through the gaps between my fingers, surrounded by a wisp of darkness, and that smile was beautiful yet sad.

"Well, go! Go! Go!"

"Go get Sammy, he's right there!"

"Let him sleep with me in the shadows!"

PS: I’m seriously stuck, I only got 4,000 today, but it will definitely be a little more tomorrow!

Chapter 3 Will Win

Kazdale.

It was a private hospital. At dusk, the setting sun fell on the corridor, dyeing the white walls red as if they were burning.

The nurses walked back and forth, occasionally glancing at the room deep in the ward.

The patient in that ward was very mysterious, but anyone who saw him would feel sorry for him. After all, he was just a small Caster, who had been tortured by someone unknown and was suffering from the Originium disease.

But in recent times, the girl's health has obviously improved a lot, and her face is filled with more smiles.

Nurses occasionally discuss the patient's identity in private, but lately, no one dares to utter the name.

It was as if Rhodes Island had become a taboo.

Kazdel seems to be the country least affected by the natural disaster. Even so, when death is overwhelming, who would not be frightened?

"Excuse me, is Miss Amiya in that room?" The sudden gentle whisper echoed behind her, startling the nurse.

The nurse turned her eyes and saw a man with an ordinary face, wearing a black suit and tie, holding a white flower in his hand, and speaking in a friendly tone.

"Yes, Miss Amiya is there." Although it was not good to reveal other people's information, the nurse still answered honestly.

She didn't even feel anything was wrong, everything just went smoothly.

"Thank you." The man nodded, paused, and a slightly bitter smile appeared on his face, "One more question, how is she now?"

"Ms. Amiya is recovering well. I think she'll be discharged from the hospital soon," the nurse answered truthfully.

"What about the psychological aspect?"

"I don't know. She might have been waiting for someone." The nurse said quietly.

The man finally nodded, exhaled, and gestured.

The nurse's eyes suddenly blurred, and all information about this man was forcefully erased from her mind. She didn't even remember that anyone had come.

At this time, the only person left in the corridor was the man holding a bouquet of flowers, standing silently by the window.

No one could associate that look with the powerful devil king. Instead, they would feel inexplicably lonely, like a wild beast without its family.

crunch.

The door was pushed open a crack, and Amiya opened her eyes in her sleep, watching the blurry figure gradually become clear.

"Doctor..." she murmured.

"Are you awake? I was moving very quietly because I didn't want to wake you up." Zhuang Ning smiled slightly.

Amiya also smiled, with a cunning look in her smile: "As long as the doctor comes, I can sense it no matter what."

She sat up and watched Zhuang Ning walk to the window. She exerted a little force with her hand and pushed open the side window to let the evening breeze in.

"Spring is here." He said as if with emotion.

The blue curtains fluttered, and Amiya retorted, "Winter is over."

"There will be no more war in Kazdel this year." Zhuang Ning was silent for a moment, "There will be no war in the entire Terra."

"This is all because of the Doctor." Amiya tried to cheer herself up, but she still felt a little sleepy for some reason.

"Still feeling sleepy?"

"Before, I used the ring too much..." Amiya stuck out her tongue, "But it's okay, it will be fine after this."

Zhuang Ning put the flowers in the vase and sat down next to Amiya.

The girl's face was red in the sunset. In a trance, Zhuang Ning realized that she had really grown up. She was no longer fourteen years old, but an adult, a graceful and elegant girl.

Although she was feeling sleepy now, she still forced herself to stay alert, not wanting to miss any moment of their time together.

"Doctor, you're going to do something very dangerous later, right?"

"How did you guess it?"

"Look at your eyes," Amiya said. "You are disguised now, but your eyes can't deceive people. You are still so tired and...sad."

She bit the last two words, as if she found it difficult to say.

After all, she was no longer a demon king at this moment and had lost the ability to perceive emotions.

Instead, Zhuang Ning put his hand on her head:

"Yes, a little bit. After that, I'm going to do something big."

He grinned, and his voice became low and hoarse, as if he was deliberately disguising himself as the voice of a villain in a movie:

"Now, I have spread the Originium to every corner of Terra."

"I can feel that there are people trying to stop me and fearing me at every moment. Their emotions become nutrients that continuously nourish my strength."

"Amiya, do you think I am still the doctor you love and admire?"

There has never been a tyrant worse than him in Terra's history. Even the people of Rhodes Island would be terrified by his actions, right?

All that worship in the past was tinged with a little bit of fear.

And Precious also became a demon.

Occasionally I think about it and look back again, and I find that there is really no one around me.

Regret?

No, he chose this path himself. The thought of going home was still burning in his heart. This Zhuang Ning had long been a sinner who was superior to both prisoners and evil spirits.

Did you do something wrong?

No, he killed many people and saved many people. He used his own way to define a new order and unite all races...

However, Zhuang Ning had to accept a fact.

The original Zhuang Ning died. The man who claimed to be mediocre died completely in the trial, and only a devil and sinner like him could act as the savior.

Amiya looked at him, the sadness in her eyes growing stronger.

"I'm sorry." She apologized suddenly.

"Why are you apologizing?" Zhuang Ning said with a half-smile.

"Should I stay with you?"

"You are a little burden now." Zhuang Ning joked, "All you have to do is see me win."

"But you are lonely, Doctor. Your eyes tell me that you are afraid."

"People are born in solitude." Zhuang Ning said softly, "and they die in solitude."

This kind of words sounded strange, but Zhuang Ning said it very seriously.

“But we are not alone.”

"Because we are social animals... no matter what, we will always stick together for warmth."

Zhuang Ning stretched out his hand again, but it froze in mid-air.

The prophetic scene flashed in his mind. His heart was dug out. The woman walked in and gently hugged him. The two of them sank into the shadows together.

The person who can keep me warm is still waiting for me.

He suddenly understood why he wanted to find Amiya before the final battle.

This was the only heart he could access, and Zhuang Ning wanted to hear something from her.

"Doctor." As if they had telepathy, Amiya's eyes widened.

She was extremely sleepy now, only one step away from falling asleep.

Before she fell asleep, she whispered from the bottom of her heart, which was like a spark that penetrated into Zhuang Ning's heart.

"Don't lose..."

"Come on, I'll always be by your side!"

The evening veil disappeared.

In the dim room, a clear light shines coolly, driving away the darkness.

Zhuang Ning hugged the girl and laughed softly, "We will win."

He finally pulled the quilt over Amiya and kissed her gently on the forehead.

The next moment, the figure disappeared immediately.

……

……

In this dark night, the devil killed the last bit of feeling.

His figure appeared at Longmen, at the Castle of the Holy Horse, at the Great Knights' Territory of Kavaleriaki, and at Trilinterme.

almost……

He will be able to leave this land soon. By then, the world will define him as the worst devil, right?

In the shadows beyond the lights and revelry, he thought.

But somehow, the corners of his mouth curled up and he took big gulps of wine.

Alcohol is broken down once it enters the body, so how could the Demon King's body be so easily affected?

But he still disguised himself as a human being and drank wine in big gulps.

Finally, his toes stopped at the huge Originium, which he had created. Now there was such a huge Originium in the center of every mobile city.

These source stones contain enormous energy, and more importantly, they are the incarnation of Zhuang Ning.

Zhuang Ning's face was inexplicably reflected on the opaque crystal surface.

In the end, he threw down the bottle in a very uncivilized manner, smiled, took a step forward, and stepped into his own battlefield.

……

……

dark.

The empty hall began to ripple, and bronze pillars suddenly appeared.

The pillars support the tall dome, and the strange reliefs depict bizarre stories.

A human figure walked into the center of the hall.

He wore a laurel wreath and a black and red robe embroidered with gold thread that trailed on the ground. His hollow eyes were filled with deep black.

If there were an outsider, he would be able to tell his identity at a glance.

Hertzog.

Or rather, the Witch King.
