Chapter 212: Fighting Alone
The soft fragrance in the arms makes one's heart flutter.
This should have been a romantic scene, like a couple in love, wishing they could hold each other in each other's arms.
Of course, the premise is that we put aside the girl's silent tears.
It was such a harmonious scene, but Tia in his arms looked pale and shaky, as if she was about to faint in the next second.
The physical pain was secondary. Moreover, after drinking a bottle of moonlight essence, the knife scar on the shoulder that was contaminated by the seal had begun to heal rapidly, and the purple bruise also faded.
What hit her the most was actually from within.
When a person learns that the existence she desperately wants to protect is actually the mastermind who has carefully woven a false dream, hiding in the dark and admiring her foolish every move, laughing and teasing her from a high position, one can imagine how she feels.
It turns out that everything around me during this period of time was a lie and a fake.
Tia felt as if her heart was broken and scattered all over the ground.
An indescribable feeling of weightlessness spread throughout my body.
The whole person's spirit and will seemed to be drained away by the "truth" that Lin En mentioned. Like a piece of shell, he fell into the dark abyss without any light.
Why, do you do this to me? Tia couldn't even feel the feeling of crying, she just stood there in a daze.
“Buzz——”
At this moment, a feeling of numbness suddenly filled her brain, as if some extremely special force was trying to influence and interfere with her.
At the same time, a voice that came from nowhere kept echoing in my mind.
Your existence itself is a mistake.
In the end, everything you rely on and believe in will betray you one by one.
No one will remember you.
Even for him, it's the same.
Go back.
Return to Brother Xia.
He is the only person in the world who will treat you unconditionally and accept your existence.
That voice haunted Tia like a nightmare, as if trying to influence her through this means, and invisibly change her thoughts and will.
But at this moment, immersed in the sadness and despair of being betrayed, how could she have the mind to think about these things?
“Clang!!!!”
As a clear and resonant sound echoed in the small bathroom, Tia's whole body suddenly bloomed with star-like moonlight.
Her face became paler, but her hands, which were tightly bound by Lynn's hug, suddenly became free.
The next second, Tia's hands climbed onto Lin En's chest, then she gritted her teeth and pushed hard! "Don't touch me! You...you..."
Tia broke free from the Liar Eater's control through her own will, and her body staggered back two steps, hitting the edge of the sink in the bathroom. She then looked at Lin En with an extremely cold expression.
But from her red eyes and the tears she was trying hard to hold back, it could be seen that at this moment she was far from being as cold as she appeared.
All kinds of emotions came to her mind, making her almost collapse.
Yes, what he just said was not wrong.
There was never a friendly relationship between the two from the beginning to the end.
Naive is oneself.
I was bewitched by him imperceptibly, and under his step-by-step guidance, I gradually embarked on a path of no return.
At this moment, Tia only felt a sour emotion spreading in her chest.
She didn't want to guess whether this emotion was a feeling of grievance or something else.
Even though I already understand the current situation, I still can't accept it deep down.
Thinking back to the promise Lynn had made to her, "Dying is the least thing I am willing to do for you", it now seemed like the most ridiculous joke.
She really wanted to ask him a question.
Ask him what he really thinks of other people's sincerity and dedication? And what does he think of her? However, these words could not be said by Tia at the moment.
As the one who was betrayed, she had shown all kinds of ugly behaviors in front of him these days. In this case, she was unwilling to give up the last bit of dignity.
And now that she has been defiled by a man, she is no longer qualified to serve the goddess.
Not to mention getting back to Shia.
In the final analysis, it is oneself who has caused everything that happens before one's eyes.
From his description, it seems that at this moment he is serving an evil god who is about to destroy the world, and there is an inextricable connection between himself and the Goddess of the Moon. In the future, he will become a member of the brave team and become a mortal enemy to each other.
Perhaps, the series of choices made now will already have a huge impact on 100,000 years later.
Or perhaps, the final victory that should have belonged to the brave in the future also changed due to the choices she made.
No, you can’t.
Although she was not mentally prepared to shoulder the responsibility of the world's safety, she was, after all, the Silent Saint cultivated by the church with all her efforts.
Coupled with the despair she felt after learning the truth, the next moment, Tia, who was leaning on the edge of the pool, suddenly moved.
“Buzz——”
In the dim room, the power of the Moon Goddess, as bright as water, gushed out from Tia's palm, emitting a flickering light, and infinite murderous intent was hidden in the silence.
The moonlight condensed into a sharp dagger, and then in a flash, it stabbed into Lin En's heart.
All this happened because of me.
I don’t know, nor do I want to know, what kind of changes will happen in the future.
But even so, she believed that she needed to take some responsibility for those illusory things.
Or maybe it was just her emotions that made her react this way instinctively.
The knife flashed by in an instant.
In an instant, the elf girl's gaze met those eyes that were as blue as the sea.
“Sizzle—”
As the sound of cloth being cut was heard, Tia held the dagger tightly with trembling hands, bent down deeply, and could no longer hold back the tears in her eyes, which dripped onto the ground in big drops.
The dagger formed by moonlight did not pierce the boy's heart as expected.
Why? I have made up my mind, but why can't I do it?
Tia didn't understand what was wrong with her and wanted to find excuses to justify her behavior.
But the fact is, facing this young man who had hurt her deeply and who was very likely to become an accomplice of the evil god of destruction in the future, she had no way to take action.
This is a disqualification as a Saint of Silence, and also a disqualification as a human being.
In this case, she no longer had any reason to live.
Or maybe, even when she knew that hypnosis was a lie, Tia's stubborn character had destined this to happen.
The next second, the moonlight dagger that was hovering in front of Lin En's chest suddenly reversed direction.
Tia closed her eyes tightly, pursed her pale lips, and with an extremely determined attitude, stabbed the dagger towards her slender neck! "Puff--!!!"
The sound of flesh being pierced was accompanied by warm blood splattering everywhere.
But the imagined severe pain did not come.
The dagger seemed to be stopped by an extremely determined force and could not move forward any further.
Tia slowly opened her eyes.
The young man reached out and grasped the dagger at some point, his face calm.
Looking at the blood dripping onto her robe and the other person's slightly trembling hands, Tia seemed to have lost all her energy.
"Why?"
She looked at the boy in front of her with empty eyes.
However, the other party did not answer this question, and I don’t know whether he didn’t want to or felt it was unnecessary.
As the red light reappeared in his eyes, the Lie Eater was activated.
"You're already very sleepy." The boy whispered, "Go to sleep."
The drowsiness like a tide suddenly hit Tia, causing her to subconsciously fall into his arms and tightly grasp his collar.
At the last moment before his consciousness faded, the boy's extremely unreal whispering to himself echoed in his ears.
"After you wake up, everything will return to normal. You will live a carefree life as the Holy Maiden of Silence and an independent individual, 'Tia Euhesti'."
"This is a promise, not a lie."
Holding Tia's feather-light body, Lin En hastily bandaged the wound and walked out of the bathroom slowly.
She looks so cute when she sleeps.
No matter from which angle.
At this moment, Tia's brows were still furrowed, her face was pale, as if she was as weak as Xizi holding her heart, her moist pink lips were whispering softly, she looked so pitiful.
Lynn sighed softly.
It would be a lie to say that I had no emotions at all.
Otherwise, when he saw Tia falling asleep, he, who should have played the villain completely, would not have uttered those last two sentences to himself on a whim.
As for the reason, he couldn't figure it out at the moment and could only try to analyze it from a rational perspective.
Ever since crossing over to this world, all the women around him were related to Ivester. Whether it was Milannie or Afia, they were basically her vassals and subordinates.
Her arc alone is enough to overshadow any opposite sex.
6◇9◇Book◇Bar
And Lynn was regarded as her private property from beginning to end.
In the previous life, this would definitely be a yandere and a heavy girl.
Although it is not bad to have a woman who devotes her whole heart to you, the emotions contained in it are too heavy after all.
It was because Lin En's character and willpower were far superior to those of ordinary people that he could tolerate her so wantonly. Otherwise, someone else would have collapsed long ago.
So for him, the experiences he had with Tia were closer to the experiences he had with ordinary people.
Just like her technique, it was somewhat awkward and clumsy.
It's hard to say who is good and who is bad.
Lin En himself likes Yvesette, a passionate big sister, but he doesn't dislike Tia, who is like a girl next door.
But at this point, the relationship between the two was completely broken and reached a freezing point. Nothing mattered anymore.
But he didn't expect that this simple-minded girl would still be kind to him until the last moment when she knew everything.
The dagger hovering in the chest but not stabbing is proof of this.
But now is not the time to think about such things.
Once you have decided to do something, you must carry it through to the end.
Indecision has never been Lynn's style.
"Calculating the time, it should be about time, right?"
Holding the soft girl in his arms, Lin En slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel.
This is a six-story building. Although it is not too high, it undoubtedly stands out compared to the downtown area where the buildings tend to be low and old.
Therefore, by simply opening the curtains beside the floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the scenery of several surrounding blocks very clearly.
At this moment, the night life has just begun.
However, the scene before him was somewhat strange.
The streets within a radius of several hundred meters, centered on the Lanting Hotel where he lived, were now deserted, and even the carriages passing by in a hurry were hard to see.
If you didn't check the time, you might even think it was late at night.
However, this situation did not surprise Lynn.
On the eaves on all sides, there were fully armed figures standing, looking at him vigilantly.
According to a rough estimate, there are about two hundred extraordinary people gathered near the street at this moment, which seems to be the mobilization of all the combat forces of the nearby Silent Church.
In addition, people from the military also came, and Lin En even saw several familiar figures in the crowd.
There was Tia’s friend Sister Louise, the eldest princess Hillelina with a complicated expression, and even that guy came.
Sia Asolante.
At this moment, his expression was gloomy and angry, and his murderous intent was directed at the culprit of all this.
And everyone has only one goal.
That is to rescue Tia and kill the villain Lin En on the spot.
Obviously, after receiving the waitress's report, everyone thought they knew the truth of the matter.
And this is indeed the effect that Lynn wanted.
In their eyes, I was already considered an existence that must be eliminated.
As the saying goes, too much debt is never a burden.
What's more, in the final analysis, the truth told by the waitress who was controlled by the liar was the one that was more in line with common sense.
Rather than saying that the noble and cold Saint Lady would do such a rebellious act, it is better to blame everything on the villain who dared to assassinate the senator and kill the prince in broad daylight.
People are more willing to believe what they make up in their minds than the facts.
"Hualala"
With a crisp sound, the floor-to-ceiling window in front of Lin En shattered into pieces and fell to the ground from the sky.
"Lynn Bartleron, there will be no good end if you go against the Empire. Quickly release Miss Tia and surrender!!!"
From the crowd in the distance came Father Andrew's loud warning.
Countless eyes were focused on Lin En. The atmosphere was extremely solemn, and the air was filled with the active breath of the divine factor.
It seemed that if he made the slightest move, the overwhelming attack would completely submerge the entire hotel.
Meanwhile, Xia, who was far away, was looking at the girl who was currently in Lin En's arms, her eyes were bloodshot and her fists were clenched tightly.
What on earth did he do to Tia? ! ! !
At this moment, Xia wanted to tear the boy in front of him into pieces, but he still couldn't get rid of the hatred in his heart.
As if sensing the murderous look in the other person's eyes, Lin En inadvertently glanced in the direction of Xia.
Although the system is unable to display Xia's plot deviation, it is good to be able to annoy the other party.
This is also to completely remove Tia from this matter.
So the next second, a arrogant smile appeared on Lin En's lips.
"I was thinking of breaking the curse that was so depressing tonight, and then doing something exciting with my dear Saint Lady. I didn't expect a bunch of annoying people to come and mess things up."
"But you guessed it right."
"From the beginning to the end, everything was planned by me, Lynn Bartlett."
"Including kidnapping this stupid woman."
"It's a pity that she didn't give in to me until the very end. Not only that, she even put up a very effective resistance in a desperate situation. Tsk tsk, should I be surprised or angry about this?"
"Forget it. Let's think about this matter next time we meet."
"For now, I will return her to you, the members of the Church of Silence. Please take good care of her for me, okay?"
The next second, he slowly loosened his arms.
Tia, who was still immersed in her dream, no longer had any external support. Her little hand, which was tightly grasping Lin En's collar, loosened involuntarily and fell softly downwards.
This scene undoubtedly shocked everyone.
At the same time, the fragile balance that had just been barely maintained was finally completely broken as the girl fell.
"Damn it!!! I'll kill you!!!"
In an instant, countless extraordinary beings suddenly jumped up and attacked Lin En.
Among them, Xia was the leader, and the violent supernatural power swept the whole place, making everyone shocked.
Driven by anger, he even subconsciously forgot that he should catch Tia in the first place. The only goal in his eyes was to completely wipe out Lin En from this world.
Only Sister Louise looked panicked. She appeared at the bottom of the tall building with a flash and took her friend's body into her arms.
Is this your choice? It is. Not surprising.
When their eyes met, a mocking smile appeared on Lin En's lips.
When Xia saw this scene, he lost control of his emotions.
What are you laughing at? What the hell are you laughing at? ! ! At this moment, the brilliance of the colorful divine genes came from all directions, almost drowning the boy's place.
After all, you can't avoid fighting alone.
Looking at the desperate situation before him, Lin En collected his thoughts and then slowly raised his hands.
