Lord of Clouds and Mist: ...?
So, is this just human obsession? But for some reason, it suddenly felt that what was happening before it was familiar.
Chu Yunxin remained silent.
The Lord of Clouds and Mist also began to think hard about how to respond to the other party's words. He had finally been active for once, and it would be so embarrassing if he was brought to a standstill by this sentence.
But as it thought... and thought... it suddenly fell silent.
Because the scene before its eyes successfully evoked its dusty memories.
That is the story of the time when cloud and fog had not yet become one, and it is also its past...
…
…
"Want to hear my story? The story of a mist elf."
Looking at the silent Chu Yunxin, the Lord of Clouds and Mist suddenly spoke.
There was a rare lack of vicissitudes in his tone, which was replaced by a bit of liveliness and nostalgia.
"What's the story?"
"A story about a weak mist elf who fell in love with the clouds in the sky... Are you listening?"
"I'm listening..."
…
…
"Mist elves are very weak and have a short lifespan. They are so weak that a strong wind can blow them away.
In this short life, we can only witness thirty-one sunrises and thirty sunsets. Finally, we will perish with the thirty-first sunrise.
But drifting clouds are different. They accompany the sky, dance with the wind, and bring rainbows and rain to the world. They last for years...”
…
"The mist elves wanted to touch the clouds, but the clouds belong to the sky, while the mist falls to the earth.
The distance between them is as far as the sky and the earth.
But it didn't want to give up. So in its last remaining life, it climbed the highest peak in the world, a way for creatures on earth to touch the sky.
…
"Did she finally get what she wanted?"
"certainly."
…
"It took the Mist Elves 21 days to reach the peak, and they waited another 7 days for the clouds to appear.
And it was the first time that Liuyun rejected the invitation of the wind and the sky, and it stayed with the mist elf out of curiosity.
It didn't understand why this little guy, who looked so similar to itself, couldn't fly?
So they intersected...
The relationship between the two progressed faster than either side expected.
On the first day, they met and got to know each other. On the second day, they stayed together and followed each other. On the third day, the mist elf faced the sunrise and decided to express her feelings. Because some things, if you don't express them now, when the sun rises again, there will be no chance again.
So, as the mist spirit dissipated, it used its body to create a rainbow for the flowing clouds. This was all it could give.
…
"What happened next? Did it disappear?" Although she already knew the answer in her heart, she still asked.
…
"Later, the Mist Spirit didn't dissipate. The Cloud Spirit accepted the Mist Spirit's intentions and used its body to block the sunlight on this 'last day'.
The two stayed together for a long, long time...until one day, the dungeon was invaded.
The Cloud Spirit, which controlled rain, snow, and thunder, needed to join the battle. But it didn't want to abandon the Mist Spirit, because if it left, the Mist Spirit would melt away in the next sunlight.
So it once again rejected the wind and the sky, and continued to travel with them...
The Mist Elf, knowing this, knew that it was weak, and it also understood the huge gap between the two.
I am weak and am just a burden to Liuyun.
So, one night, it hid in a dark and damp cave without permission, so that the clouds could no longer find it...
It was also on the second day that the Liuyun Elf went crazy.
It was stained in black, and the raging divine thunder, indiscriminately distinguishing friend from foe, turned everything into scorched earth. Frost and snow buried the world... It crushed the enemy, but also crushed itself."
…
"Why are you crazy?"
"Because the mist elves, who claim to be weak, don't realize that they are everything to it."
Chu Yunxin: ...
"Did they meet again later?"
Although she already understood something, she was still curious about the subsequent story.
…
"Later, they met again. But Liuyun died..."
"ah?!"
Chu Yunxin exclaimed subconsciously, because at this moment she had already brought herself and Lu Yun into it.
…
"Liuyun dragged his broken body to the top of the mountain he had just seen. It was the only place not covered by thunder, frost and snow.
There it met the mist elf, which was illuminating the sun and waiting to die.
It used its body to block the sunlight again, but the opponent's core had begun to dissipate, so it was of no avail.
After an unknown amount of time, the core of the flowing cloud merged with the dissipating mist. Thus, the world lost a flowing cloud and gained a cloud of mist.
On my deathbed I asked it why?
She said: That rainbow is your everything. You gave me everything you have, and I should respond with everything I have.
Later, the cloud elves fought with double faith, but were ultimately defeated by the dungeon.
Facing the invasion of the abyss of the dungeon, it covered the cloud part with the core of fog, stained the fog part with the color of the abyss, but thus preserved the purity of the cloud.
…
…
After the story ended, Chu Yunxin's emotions gradually calmed down:
"Is this... your past?"
"Um!…
What I want to say is that, emotionally, if you are her everything, then this speck of dust is worth a sky full of stars.
At least...that's what it taught me."
…
"I see."
Come to think of it, if the identities were reversed, I wouldn't want Lu Yun to have such thoughts.
