The crying stopped in an instant, and the Judgment Angel looked at Cecilia with his broken nystagmus.
And she, looking back, spoke again:
You did everything a good warrior should do."
"You did not betray the Holy Light."
Kneeling on one knee next to the Angel of Judgment, she stretched out her hand and pressed it between his eyebrows, whispering:
"It was the Holy Light that betrayed you."
The power of light poured into Judgment Angel's body, and his limbs began to recover quickly.
Bo.
Click.
But the new limbs were broken just after they appeared, and no amount of strength could make up for the brokenness.
He is like a piece of broken porcelain that cannot be repaired again, constantly being repaired and broken again.
His eyes regained clarity, and the Judgment Angel grabbed Cecilia's wrist with his remaining right hand, and asked with difficulty:
"The Lord... betrayed me?"
Because the news he heard was so shocking, he couldn't even feel the anger.
There is only fear.
Fear of this news.
The Holy Light betrayed me?
what are you saying!!?
Do you know what you are talking about!?
Because his fingers were too hard, his palms even made a cracking and breaking sound.
Without withdrawing her arm, Cecilia just comforted her with a gentle voice:
"You fought until the last moment, and I'm proud of you."
Click!
More signs of brokenness appeared on her body, and the Judgment Angel looked at Cecilia longingly, hoping to get an answer.
"……is that true?"
Finally, feeling his soul about to be broken, Cecilia spoke the cruel answer after silence.
“…He betrayed our expectations.”
Click!!!
The halo above his head was completely shattered, and the Judgment Angel's body was shattered over a large area.
Boom.
The hand holding Cecilia dropped, and the Judgment Angel stared blankly at the ceiling, muttering unknown words.
“…The Lord betrayed us?”
"Then what is the meaning of our persistence?"
Stimulated by Ning Feng, the firm will that could not be worn away even for a long time was completely shattered the moment he got the answer.
Have we been betrayed by the Lord?
So what is the meaning of the belief that we must insist on even if we fall?
The light in his eyes disappeared, indicating that the fire in his soul was quickly extinguished.
Cecilia no longer stopped, but silently watched the judgment angel reach this end.
This point must have become a foregone conclusion the moment she opened her mouth to answer.
"…………"
Ning Feng was silent, wanting to say something but not knowing how to speak.
He had no idea what they were grieving or what they had gone through.
But seeing such a scene, he felt uncomfortable.
Rather than seeing death, what Ning Feng was most afraid of was seeing such a scene.
Lost faith, lost the belief that has supported me for a long time.
A warrior, like a walking zombie.
Soldiers should not die in such humiliation.
So, he spoke.
Said recklessly, knowing that it would not be meaningful:
"Warrior, what is your duty?"
The Judgment Angel did not respond, but Cecilia moved slightly, trying to turn around and stop him.
"What is the truth that you firmly believe in and protect?"
"Have you ever betrayed your faith?"
Walking towards the two of them step by step, Ning Feng asked, trying to arouse a reaction from the other party.
"Do you believe in your Lord or your faith?"
I don't know which god it is, but Ning Feng doesn't care.
"Were you born to protect the truth, or did you exist to be His slave?"
At the end, Ning Feng angrily scolded the Judgment Angel who finally reacted.
There was no reflection, no instant insight, the judgment angel just turned his head with difficulty and looked at Ning Feng.
It seems that he is curious about what kind of person would do this at this time and say such rebellious words.
It's like I want to remember his appearance in my mind.
Without escaping, Ning Feng looked back at the ferocious monster-like angel and said softly:
"If you hadn't betrayed these."
The devil who is good at playing with people's hearts, at this moment, facing the dying angel, without any words, he pronounced his sentence seriously:
"You are not corrupted."
"You still maintain the purity of your soul."
"You are not guilty."
Click, click, click...
The shattering sound reached the breaking point at this moment, and the Judgment Angel's body was completely shattered, leaving only half of its head.
Lifeless eyes swept over Ning Feng and Cecilia, and finally stopped on Ning Feng's face.
"I don't……"
His lips moved slightly, and he finally wanted to say something, but before he could finish, he completely lost his life.
He is completely gone.
Looking at this scene, Ning Bian's expression became slightly gloomy, but he didn't feel much sad in his heart.
There may be miracles in this world, but they don't happen all the time.
Although it seems meaningless, Ning Feng has done what he can.
Gently holding the angel's dissipating head, Cecilia lowered her head and whispered to him softly:
"You are not corrupted."
"Now, it's time to rest."
Floating into the air, a warm light lit up in her palm, allowing the Judgment Angel's broken soul fragments to dissipate in the light.
"May your faith live forever in the Holy Light."
Ning Feng didn't know the meaning of this action.
But he only felt that such a funeral seemed quite beautiful.
Until there were no more fragments left, Ning Feng looked at the strange woman floating in the air and asked hesitantly:
"...Cecilia?"
Reacting to Ning Feng's voice, Cecilia descended from the air and landed in front of Ning Feng.
There was nostalgia and some kind of emotion in Ning Feng's eyes that Ning Feng couldn't understand. Under Ning Feng's hesitant gaze, Cecilia nodded slowly and said:
"Thank you for your words just now. [Word of Judgment] did not fall until the last moment."
"With this, his soul will not be polluted in the future."
The sadness in her eyes gradually faded away, and she returned to the calm look in Ning Feng's memory and dream.
Then, she continued:
"Besides, long time no see..."
"My Lord."
The brain seemed to be down for a moment,
Ning Feng:......?
Did I hear something wrong just now?
Ning Feng's eyes widened in an instant, and Ning Feng froze on the spot.
???
Ning Feng has a very good memory.
And he searched his entire memory and found that he had only been called "Lord" twice in his life.
The first time was when I received an anonymous note after a certain training session, which said "Please Lord..." or something like that.
He was still a child at that time and threw it away without paying any attention to it.
The second time, in a dream, a man kept calling Ning Feng's name repeatedly, calling him "my lord".
And coincidentally, that man was Ning Feng himself.
!!!
Ning Feng broke through the shame of having black history posted online from a private space.
"You! Me, ah?"
what is this!
Please speak clearly!
"Why did you call me that!?"
Eyes moving slightly, Cecilia tilted her head at Ning Feng's reaction and said quietly:
"That's because you..."
Boom!
Ning Feng's heart beat faster, looking forward to hearing the biggest mystery that troubled him.
He felt that he was very close to the truth.
With so many secrets in his body, how could Ning Feng not be curious.
But others didn't know, Ning Feng didn't trust them to check, and Arianna refused to tell everything.
And now, it seems that a big boss who knows the truth has finally appeared!
Ning Feng was extremely excited!
Opening and closing her lips, Cecilia didn't hide her words like some scornful woman. She answered Ning Feng's question directly.
she says:
"…………"
Um?
Ning Feng's nervous expression froze and he blinked quickly.
Um???
Who silenced me?
The next moment, a pair of slightly cold hands covered his ears, blocking out all noise.
"Hey, hey, hey! I'll give you the chance to be a hero and save the beauty. It's fine if you're not grateful. Why are you causing trouble!"
Arianna's dissatisfied voice passed through her palms and sounded in Ning Feng's heart:
"You are still young, children can't listen~"
"Let's go, let's go, adults are quarreling, why are you still here?"
wait!
Just as Ning Feng was about to resist, his figure disappeared with a snap of his fingers.
During this process, Cecilia did not stop her. She only looked at this disgusting woman indifferently and said coldly:
"He has a right to know everything about himself."
Not caring about Cecilia's bad attitude at all, Ariana said with a smile:
"Yes, but it's not time yet~ It's not a good thing to know this too early."
"What do you think?"
Eyes narrowed, Cecilia finally just snorted:
"You are actually worried about others."
The strength in her body gradually dropped, and layers of shackles appeared out of thin air and began to be put on her body, making her return to her weird look.
Covering her mouth, Ariana exaggeratedly expressed her surprise, and then played with the taste:
"Oh, what's so strange about this? Didn't you still forgive him for his depravity?"
"Not only died in battle, but the remaining souls also became human beings' lackeys... Oh, I'm sorry, do you usually call this kind of companion?"
"The establishment of the realm of the Judge's Hall must have his tacit approval, otherwise his power would not be so easily borrowed, right?"
There were more and more shackles on Cecilia, but there was no sign of pain on her face. At this moment, she stared at Ariana coldly and said:
"...[Words of Judgment] He did not fall, he fought until the last moment."
"He is the judge. As long as the other party does not betray the truth of the world, he will always be willing to dedicate himself to this cause."
"Even though he has lost everything, there is only a little residual soul left on the weapon."
The last rusty helmet reached her head. Cecilia didn't want to argue with this guy anymore, so she turned around and wanted to leave.
But the next moment, she stopped and turned her head.
Because Ariana was sighing with emotion:
"But you know how worried I was about this before!"
"How strange that you didn't kill him immediately."
