The clear snow slowly fell from the sky. After Boom and Rikka completed the task, they slowly walked towards Changsuo City. This was a task given by the city lord Belinda, and the reward was three high-grade magic crystals.
But even without these rewards, Boom will help. Although he does not want to have a close relationship with Belinda, she is an acquaintance after all.
As for Rikka, she is now competing with the "double iron ring" every day. Therefore, she has no intention of taking action this time and is completely letting it go.
Although Boom knew the reasons for the prisoners, he had no intention of delving into it. A mission is a mission, but killing one person has absolutely nothing to do with it.
Even though the afternoon sun was dazzling, it brought very little warmth to the frozen continent. Boom was moving very slowly, and he was also accommodating Rikka's state.
Rikka snorted unhappily, and then rushed out like a cannonball. But her footsteps suddenly stopped, and her face became even more ugly.
Boom slowly walked to Rikka. After seeing the truth of the matter, he remained silent. The two stood on the hill with no intention of talking anymore.
"Baby, go to sleep quickly. You won't feel hungry when you fall asleep. There are cakes, meat, and juice in your dreams."
"It was my mother who was incompetent. She gave birth to you but couldn't afford to raise you. I miss him too, but he died on the ice field."
"If you can survive, you will be an extremely brave Viking warrior in the future. Mom is proud of you, whether now or in the future."
"My child, please forgive me. Mom no longer believes in gods. If they really exist, why did you die here?"
"However, the night tonight is destined to be dark. Every star is my mother's unwillingness, and every moonlight is my mother's regret."
"Children are not afraid, mother will always be with you, no matter we are going to the Hall of Valor or the endless abyss. You are never lonely, you are never alone."
The woman kept holding the baby, but the baby kept crying. The cold wind came mercilessly, picking up snowflakes and bringing with it the breath of death.
She is just an ordinary Viking. She has lived in Changsuo City since she was a child. She married her husband more than ten years ago. Her husband is a middle-level warrior. Although he is not a noble, he also works as a mercenary. Hunting wild beasts in exchange for gold coins, although the life of the two was always difficult, it was far better than that of the poor. As days passed, she became pregnant with each other's flesh and blood, and her husband worked harder and harder.
Pieces of animal skins, beast carcasses, gold coins, and extremely familiar greetings. The man always smiled, completely ignoring the injuries in his leather robe.
The sutures burst, blood soaked the leather robe, and stained the bed red. He carefully placed his hand on his wife's abdomen, feeling the little life inside with satisfaction.
But this year's cold moon seemed to be extremely long, and the wind and snow were even more violent, making the iron ropes attached to the city wall rattle. That day, she held her husband's head and smiled lightly as usual.
With a pregnant belly, my wife cooked a sumptuous dinner and rarely bought expensive wine. However, during the dinner, tears fell into the wooden bowl and the amniotic fluid broke through the wall.
Two months later, she returned to normal again. The white robe was a reminder of her husband, and the baby in her arms also opened its eyes.
However, late one night, the wife's leather robe was brutally torn to pieces, and her charming skin was exposed to the air. But she gritted her teeth and looked at her child calmly.
The morning light fell on Changsuo City, and the three people left with satisfaction. Before leaving, they did not forget to humiliate her husband. The courtyard door was closed again, and the woman tremblingly crawled to the baby and tried her best to feed the little life. She didn't know how long this kind of life had passed, until the other party hurt the baby, until she held the kitchen knife tightly, until the other party escaped from the courtyard wailing, until the principality's cavalry arrived.
She never understood what she had done wrong. Is it wrong to keep oneself as a jade? Is it wrong to dwell on her late husband? Or she should not have children, or she simply does not deserve to live anymore.
The few dozen remaining gold coins were scattered among the poor, and the wife put on the leather robe she had worn when she got married. She even bought some goat milk and fed her children.
Cleaning up everything in the small courtyard, cleaning every corner, and closing all doors and windows. The wife smiled, and then walked out of Changsuo City with the baby in her arms.
Taking a step forward, she remembered what she was like many years ago. She was a poor person and had no guarantee of three meals a day, but she also smiled happily and sincerely.
After taking two steps, she seemed to have returned to a few years ago. There was a man beside her, who was as persistent as a fly and vowed to marry her.
After taking three steps, she saw her husband's head again. His face was still the same, and there was still a bit of evil spirit between his brows, but there was no sound anymore.
After taking four steps, she was forced onto the table. Her body trembled involuntarily, and a strange smell filled her surroundings. Tears welled up, but they could not blur the outline of the baby.
After taking five steps, she had already walked out of Changsuo City. The cold wind was howling and the ice and snow were blowing. Her lips were slightly white, and the baby in her arms seemed to be waking up.
In the end, she didn't know how long she walked, crossing icy lakes and enduring dark nights. The fire starter had long since been scrapped, and there was not much food left in the cloth bag.
Today, she walked forward again as if she had returned to the past, and finally chose this ice field as the burial place for herself and her baby.
I saw her lowering her head and kissing her child, and then she stopped moving, looking completely resigned to her fate. The reason why the ice field is called ice field is because it is cold and ruthless, but it also contains endless killing intent.
A few hours later, the snow covered the mother and child. They were as silent as ice sculptures, and their souls were completely taken away by the god of death. The baby always looked like he was sleeping soundly, and his little hands were still half-clasped.
"Brother..." Rikka's intuition is very sensitive, so she waited until the other party was completely dead before she made a sound.
"This is the sorrow of ordinary people. They can neither change their destiny nor the outside world."
"If you feel uncomfortable, then we must take this as a warning from now on, kill all enemies, and escape from all invincible existences."
"This kind of thing will happen again in the future, but Rikka, remember, I will be by your side under any circumstances."
"Although I am incompetent, I am not a coward. The sky is big and the earth is big. I will go forward side by side with Rikka, even if the other side is an abyss."
Boom held Rikka in his arms. Although his strength was not as strong as the "Double Iron Ring", he still seemed extremely sincere. Several wind blades appeared out of thin air, and the mother and son ice sculptures were instantly wiped out.
Rikka kept her head down, trying not to let tears well into her eyes. Although she felt sorry for the mother and son in front of her, she cared more about Boom's feelings for her.
The results are self-evident, and Boom has never let Rikka down. Although his brother has slight personality flaws, he has always been consistent with himself.
"Brother, Rikka will stay with you. Even if we turn into ice sculptures in the end, Rikka will never leave." Rikka held Boom's arm, and the two of them walked towards Changsuo City again. p>
