"I don't need any big reasons." At this moment, a low voice suddenly interrupted Artolis's words.
In surprise, Artolis just watched as the man who didn't know when he appeared here walked towards her step by step.
"You don't need to list my crimes one by one, and my original intention of pulling you into this consciousness space is not to win your sympathy." Looking directly into Atoris's eyes, Helos smiled unsmilingly.
"..." Facing the other party's gaze, Artolis was speechless. Such an unfolding seemed to be beyond her expectation.
Her eyes swept away from Fudou, who was kneeling on one knee in front of Helos, and Artoris's eyes returned to the cold and ruthless man in front of her.
"In the face of the life that is about to pass away, there is no so-called saving and being saved, but in my opinion, it is just your hypocritical goodwill."
"So, what is the answer you want? In other words, the reason for introducing me to this consciousness?" Artoris, who was also about to die, looked directly at the other person and did not feel afraid.
Maybe she thought wrong. The man in front of her already knew whether what she did was correct or not. This is also true. How many years have shaped him as a person, but it is difficult to shake the other person's will simply by relying on one person's wishes.
"I have only one question here: Why are you fighting on this battlefield?"
Why fight?
This question already had an answer the moment it emerged in Artolis's mind.
The thoughts and hopes of countless people were pinned on them, so they came here - the battlefield on the eastern border of the Semir Kingdom as abandoned sons of the jihad.
In order to end the war completely, the war here must continue, and their existence is to maintain the order of this battlefield and prevent more people from dying here. Perhaps the demon world and the phantom world each arranged personnel to try to control the direction of the war, which seems a bit unbelievable to most uninformed people, but it is undeniable that this is a necessary part of the victory of the war!
Maybe that's what Helos wants.
A bad life played by fate is often only a wall away from the truth, but it cannot be touched no matter what, and is kept in the dark.
The management was unable to monitor the conversation in the consciousness space, and the outside world was cut off from the dissemination of information by the human boy. Perhaps when Helos calmed down, Artolis could convey the truth and the purpose of their actions to the other party. .
"Actually, we..." However, just as the words came out, the surrounding space suddenly shook violently, and blue flames ignited from the end of the world and gradually spread to the surroundings.
"It's... everyone from outside!" Artolis noticed the blazing Green Lotus Pure Fire in the distance, and the words she wanted to say were interrupted.
"It seems that time no longer allows you to continue talking. At the last moment of the revolving lantern, the stagnant time here has finally begun to waver."
"..." Paying attention to Fu Dou's slightly anxious look, Artoris was speechless and looked at Helos who was gradually frowning in shame.
The two looked at each other speechlessly, only the gears of time began to turn slowly.
"It seems that this is the end." He said, breathing a sigh of relief: "I know that my father was a warrior during his lifetime, and I am not humble with his blood flowing through him. And I have fulfilled my promise. ——Hurt, this is the only surname I will never forget until the end of my life.”
“…..”
"Warriors are not good at words. I admire martial arts, and there is only battle in front of me. The winning side will live, and the loser should withdraw." As soon as Helos finished speaking, there was a violent thunder in the sky, and the thunder shook the whole place. A piece of heaven and earth, making people feel like the space has been torn apart with cracks.
Seeing this, Helos took a deep breath: "Then let's change the question. This time I only need a positive answer."
"War satisfies, or has satisfied, man's aggressive instincts, but it also satisfies man's desire for plunder, destruction, and ruthless discipline and despotism. War is only for those who need it. Just. And I just want to know, can you be called just by allowing the war to continue?"
"We will win, but we will not represent the power of any party, we will just comply with people's wishes."
This was the reply Artoris gave to the other party.
Recall the unforgettable past, face the precious reality, and look forward to a bright future.
"Built in the hearts of all those who are full of hope because of the end of the war, this is what I think is justice. It will not be distorted by any extremes. Likewise, we will continue to implement it firmly and let the war be what all people yearn for. ended the way people expected.”
After listening to Artoris's words, Helos hesitated for a moment, and finally a smile appeared on his lips.
"This... is enough..."
The moment Artoris woke up from reality, Heros raised his palm and hit her chest hard, pushing her out of the surging blood.
At the moment when the Wolf King was taking her away, the last words Helos left for her came to Artoris's mind.
"This is an exchange of equal value. I got the answer I wanted, and you just live like this."
Heros is a demon and a disaster. He has such a tragic past, but sympathy does not mean that people can forgive the mistakes he has made.
"So, even so, you don't plan to leave."
At the last moment when his consciousness space collapsed, Helos turned his head, glanced at the red figure, and asked without any emotion.
If the contract is severed, the contracted beast will not have to die with its master, and it will not be difficult for Futo, who is still alive, to escape with his own strength.
But unlike Fu Dou, Helos has accepted his failure calmly and can only leave this world with regrets.
Because it's so cold at high places, he always looks cold.
"Being able to share weal and woe with my master is what I pursue in this life. If you no longer intend to struggle, then there is no harm in dying with you."
"Then so be it." Nodding, Helos Hurt looked into the distance. At the edge of the world burned out by the fire, he saw a group of familiar figures waving to him.
At this moment, he felt something deep inside his heart waver.
Go with life, don't dwell on the past, and don't look forward fanatically to the future.
"Maybe... this ending is not bad." The smile that had long been lost in memory filled his face again at this moment. With that mood, the man took steps forward and finally fell into their arms.
