The captain looked at the knife light that was getting closer and closer to him, and he knew that his life was in danger.
Without saying anything more, he closed his eyes.
Suddenly, there was a sound of metal clashing, stopping the long sword.
[Jie? Didn't I tell you to run away?]
The captain opened his eyes and looked at Jay who had blocked the fatal blow for him.
"I don't want to run away, Captain. I heard they were talking about massacring the city. My mother, my beloved girl, they can't escape. Besides, if I run away, I'll be a deserter, and my mother will never be proud of me again. A deserter can't hold his head up high."
Jie said as he fought against the bad guys.
The captain knew that although Jay gave so many reasons, there was actually only one reason.
If he runs away, Jay will no longer be his mother's pride.
Be a proud mother.
These seven words, under the glory that Ona was born with a golden key, became an indelible curse that accompanied Jay throughout his life.
He wanted his mother to be able to hold her head up high in front of his sister.
He wants to be his mother's pride.
These seven words will also become the curse that will claim Jie's life.
If it weren't for these seven words, perhaps Jay would have already escaped like his other comrades.
With Jie's strength, it is not difficult for him to escape from the hands of the bad guys.
"If we have a chance of surviving, this captain will lead his men directly to the palace and help you snatch your beloved girl away to be your wife."
The captain choked.
The reason he dared to stay was naturally because of his responsibility as captain.
In addition, he had children. Although his wife had died of old age long ago, it was undeniable that he had descendants.
No worries.
But Jie is different. In his entire life, he has never even kissed a girl.
In his eyes, Jie was just a poor kid, whose talent and character were obviously not inferior to Ao in any way.
But because of his cousin status, he lived in the shadow of Ao all his life, and the pride of being a mother became a curse that Jay could never get rid of.
"No need, Captain. Love is something you can't force. Besides, I can't give her a comfortable life."
Jie shook his head and continued to fight with the bad guys.
Under the influence of Ao's glory and the pride of being a mother.
He lived cautiously all his life, being as humble as a blade of grass to please everyone around him.
He had never thought about himself in his life.
Naturally, he would not agree to the captain's kindness. As such, he would not do anything to hurt his beloved girl.
【What a stupid person.】
The captain shook his head, stopped talking to Jie, and concentrated on fighting the bad guys.
..........
The aerial battle did not last long.
Under the overwhelming advantage of the bad guys.
The stubborn defenders of Dehe City were quickly wiped out.
The bad guys began to crazily massacre the people in the city.
Flames rose in various parts of the city, and corpses fell in the scorched earth.
The children crawled around struggling to find their parents, and the old men cried bitterly while holding the bodies of their children, but soon they were also killed.
Lin Dang walked slowly on the city wall, one by one, personally closing the eyes of the bodies of the people of Dehe City.
He couldn't stop the Bad Commander, he could only watch it happen.
He is a king without real power.
His power is temporarily kept by Wan.
Lin Dang came to a headless corpse, which was holding a diary tightly in its hands.
Lin Dang came to the corpse and slowly picked up the diary.
This was the only diary he found on the entire city wall.
The owner of the diary attaches great importance to it.
Lin Dang used pheromones to open the diary, and the past events recorded in it emerged.
In the sixth year of the Dehe calendar, I was born. My birth seemed quite ordinary, without the miraculous signs of those stories about King Tianen, King Maya, and King Monde. My mother named me Jie with great anticipation, hoping that I would become a great man. But I knew that I would always be a nobody in my life.
In the seventh year of the Dehe calendar, my mother's sister, whom I should call Aunt, also gave birth to a child. His name was Ao, and he should be my cousin. Unlike me, he seemed to have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. This was because his father was different from mine. My father was just an ordinary beast breeder with a natural gambling habit, while Ao's father was Wang Zuo, second only to the emperor in Dehe City.
From the moment Ao was born, he received the majority of Dehe City's resources. He attracted the attention of thousands, and everyone admired and respected him. In less than six months, he quickly reached the Golden Light Realm. His father then enlisted him in the City Lord's personal guard, becoming his personal bodyguard.
Everyone praises him for his promising young age. Mom often praises him in front of me, and my sister says I'm inferior to him in every way, belittling me and praising him. I always feel bad inside. I never feel inferior to him. Ao only got to where he is thanks to the resources of Dehe City. If I had his resources, I wouldn't necessarily be worse than him.
Mom thinks so too. In her eyes, I'm the family's backbone. My father, who only knows how to gamble, has long since failed to support the family. I must be a genius. How can I, with so little money as to barely afford a meal of pork nuggets, compete with Ao, who has poured most of Dehe City's resources into this?
My image in my mother's heart was so high that I couldn't let her down. After ten years of cultivation, I successfully reached the Golden Light Realm and escaped the critical moment of life and death. At that time, I secretly vowed in my heart that I would become my mother's pride. I wanted to make her proud when people talked about me, and she would proudly raise her head and say, "This is my child."
