Chapter 475: Broken Wings
Chapter 475: Broken Wings
——What does it feel like to lose something precious?
Many people actually don’t have the opportunity to experience such things... because what they have is not that valuable to them.
Only those things that are enough to shake the trajectory of life will make people feel painful when they are lost.
"Ah, the magic is..."
In front of everyone, Mo Qianyun drank the poison prepared by Jiang Yue.
In the blink of an eye, her extraordinary magic circuits and roots quickly collapsed and decayed under the abnormal toxins.
The huge amount of magic power that could no longer be contained by the body began to gush out to the outside world - the magic power that was as thick and solid as a solid just left the body one after another meaninglessly and dissipated into the air.
If Mo Qianyun was really a normal magician, then her level should have reached level five.
…but now she has nothing.
"…Is this what ordinary people feel like?"
He no longer had any strength in his body to fight, and even his breathing seemed to have become much heavier...but Mo Qianyun felt extremely relaxed at this moment.
Because of her, I finally understood Aarons' feelings.
……
When all the magic power in his body dissipated like a brilliant rainbow light, Mo Qianyun opened his eyes again.
However, before she could begin to experience this new world, voices of doubt and surprise suddenly came from behind her.
"Hey... what the hell are you doing? Was that... your magic power?"
After witnessing the incredible scene up close, Aarons, who was not a magician, was the first to notice something unusual about Mo Qianyun.
Because he realized that something bad had just happened to Mo Qianyun, he ran to Mo Qianyun without caring about his injuries that had not yet recovered, and immediately questioned her.
However, Mo Qianyun responded to him with a tearful smile... as if she had finally been freed from some curse.
"Sir...it is impossible for me to become a magician anymore."
"What are you talking about...are you crazy!"
"I have discarded those meaningless talents!"
Only then did Aarons realize that the fierce aura that had always existed in Mo Qianyun had now disappeared without a trace.
She gave up her talent... Did she destroy her foundation as a magician?
"What's wrong with your brain? Why are you destroying your own talent?! Do you really not want to be a magician? Why are you throwing away your bright future?"
Aarons' roar was clearly heard by every audience member.
They originally thought that Aarons was just a criminal who came to seek revenge on Al Mo, but after hearing the anxious yet concerned roar, some people suddenly realized that there might be some other reasons.
What was the relationship between the woman who suddenly intervened in the battle and the two men? Why did she ignore Al Mo's advice and insist on interrupting the duel?
"Answer me! What on earth were you thinking? Why did you make such a stupid choice?"
"...I finally understand you."
After hearing this answer, Aarons, who was still roaring, was stunned for a moment.
"After becoming an ordinary person, I finally understood what the world looks like in your eyes."
After turning around and facing Aarons, Mo Qianyun gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes and revealed a peaceful and calm smile.
"I've always wanted to understand you, to know why you're sad, and to know what else I can do for you."
"Qianyun, you..."
Aarons certainly understood Mo Qianyun's thoughts.
He just didn't want to become a shackle for Mo Qianyun, restraining her and depriving her of the right to freely choose her future.
...But Mo Qianyun would rather give up everything she has and choose to stay by his side.
"——I just want to continue walking with you."
So Aarons finally realized that not everyone in this world is pursuing rationality and the best options.
Even if he may always be a loser, there are people willing to stay by his side and face the unknown future with him.
Perhaps, he has always been qualified to hold other people's hands——
……
"No... No! It shouldn't be like this! Why!"
However, a shrill roar suddenly interrupted Aarons' thoughts.
"Sister Crow...why can't I see your talent?!"
Al Mo, with a distraught expression on his face, stared at Mo Qianyun intently. At this moment, he seemed to be struck by something unbelievable, and shouted in shock and anxiety.
"Why do you want to give up your own talents? Don't you know that those things... are what many people want but can't get?"
He could not understand Mo Qianyun's actions, nor could he accept Mo Qianyun's choice - and what was even more unbearable to him was that someone would actually reject the bright future he pointed out and choose to indulge in self-degradation like rotting in the quagmire.
"Ah, I understand... It must be him. That scumbag lied to you again, right? Damn it... If it weren't for you, Sister Crow would have become a great magician!"
So he quickly found the most appropriate reason for everything he could not understand.
"I won't let you ruin other people's lives anymore! I'm going to get rid of you right here, this dirty, ugly scum!"
Powerful magical power once again began to gather on the staff - and this time, the young magician summoned a flaming spear with undercurrents in front of him.
“Go, ‘Dark Flame Piercing’! I must rescue Sister Crow ahhhhh—”
Because things don't go your way, you can give up reason and morality.
In full view of everyone, the half-crazy Al Mo threw a magic flame spear that was enough to burn Aarons to death, who was unarmed and had no intention of fighting.
No matter what happens next, he will kill here the man who repeatedly comes to hinder him.
...Because he knew very well that he was the protagonist of the story.
……
——Am I one step closer to you?
Just as if it was a replay of the past, the farewell of life and death on the Yumenhua once again happened before the two of them.
——Am I able to understand your sorrow and share your pain?
But this time, the person who was pushed away with all his strength was someone else.
- If I had mustered up the courage earlier, would I have been able to make you smile more?
The man who was pushed away fell to the side... and the woman who pushed him down opened her arms and stood between him and the magic flying towards her without hesitation.
——Your journey turns out to be so painful and lonely.
The man who had no combat experience had no time to think or react... and the woman, who had just turned back into an ordinary person, smiled at him again.
——If I had known that I could stay by your side by discarding these useless things, I might have…
They...already knew the impending end.
"...There will be no regrets then."
Then, the spear made of flames and undercurrents pierced through the woman's body from behind, tearing, burning and devouring all the flesh, bones and internal organs that tried to block it, and drilled out a huge hole.
...And because of this obstacle, the violent magic ultimately failed to reach its original target.
“——Qianyun!!”
——Ah...I really hope I can continue to accompany you.
The magic created for killing quickly shattered and dissipated after penetrating the human body.
The woman who blocked the magic with her body did not show any pain. Instead, she smiled calmly as if she was finally relieved.
"..."
Then, having completed her final mission, she slowly fell down in front of the man.
——A bird with broken wings cannot survive in this cruel world.
……
Therefore, fate cannot be defied.
Even if you have the courage to give up everything, you cannot change your destiny. And the fool who resists fate will definitely pay the price with his life.
Perhaps only the so-called gods who do not exist have the power to control and rewrite fate.
[And the brave who faces the curse of fate will fall into madness in the flames of anger and hatred. 】
——Because this was decided from the beginning.
