Chapter 46 The Power of Choice
There is no doubt that the woman named A. Sion deeply loves the man named Godora.
She wants to tell him loudly her feelings.
But can she say the words that she couldn't say before?
She is not really a person who only has the sword in her heart. Sometimes she feels that she is simply laughable. Her mind is so complicated, but she piles things on the sword more and more.
Is the sword just an excuse for herself, just a tool? Is
she really pious to the sword?
So much so that at this moment, facing Dora's words, she has no way to refute.
This man probably saw her despicable thoughts a long time ago. It is said that it is impossible to hide that a person likes another person, and since this matter is "not exposed", it is natural that the person who is liked "does not want to". He must know her feelings, so he did not intend to accept her feelings from the beginning.
She can deceive herself and say that the past A. Godora was still young and did not know her thoughts, but the current Dora, who is already in his thirties, should have this experience. After experiencing the ups and downs of life, he should have this ability to judge.
So, A.Xion was just not liked.
As for the reasons why she was not liked - there were too many.
She herself was well aware of her own meanness.
They looked at each other in silence. She felt that she should have left tactfully, but her feet seemed to be nailed to the spot by something, and she was unwilling to move a step.
She herself felt pathetic and shameless.
She was so thick-skinned.
The disappointment in Duo Luo's eyes gradually accumulated. He felt that such a thing was meaningless. His former teacher - looked even more embarrassed than he had imagined.
He didn't know whether he was disappointed in A.Xion or disappointed in himself.
Or, both.
"Why not use swords to decide the winner?"
Moh's voice abruptly pierced the silence between the two, like a sharp nail piercing smooth glass, making a sound that made people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Why not use swords to decide the winner.
Duo Luo and A.Xion's eyes fell on the demon king Mo He at the same time. Mo He just stuck out his tongue in a cute way, just like a girl of this age should be naughty and cute - but this word is not cute at all. It is better to say that the demon king's words are simply trampling on their hearts.
After A.Xion came to this mansion, after the first day she met Duo Luo, she never mentioned the topic of swords again, and Duo Luo would not mention it even more.
But now she talked about this matter without hesitation, as if she knew nothing about the past of the two people and just gave a friendly suggestion.
It is meaningless for the two of them to decide the winner.
If it were two swordsmen, it might be a very romantic thing to use swords to express their feelings, but Duo Luo never thought of taking another sword after the ordinary iron sword broke, even if it was just an ordinary sword that could be bought in Baixi Town.
This is enough to show his will.
This person is definitely not unaware of the two people's thoughts, but she still deliberately said such words, and she was as bad-tempered as ever.
Most of the time, Moher's bad taste makes people feel a little cute, but at this time, she really makes the hearts of the two people slightly pierced.
"Maybe this is a good decision."
However, from Dora's mouth, he said idealistic words: "Using swords to decide victory or defeat, or to decide life and death, no matter how complicated the emotions between people are, when one party dies, the emotions are also reduced by half, hatred is like this, love is like this. Just like when the Demon King was alive, the hatred held by many intelligent races was difficult to describe in words, and now that the Demon King is dead, some people think that 'maybe the Demon King's rule is not bad'."
This is definitely not Dora's original intention.
A. Sion is so sure - but, is it really not?
She once thought that she knew Dora very well, but did she really understand?
"Okay... Using swords is a good thing."
She didn't know what expression she had when she answered this way. Was it embarrassment? Guilt? Expectation?
The wind passed by the side wall of the manor and blew on everyone's hair.
"Since we are going to use swords to decide the winner, let me prepare weapons for both of you to fight with!" Moher finally revealed her original purpose, "I promise that this duel will achieve a satisfactory result for both of you."
As a matter of course, she began to prepare a weapon called "Cursed Sword".
To be fair, this weapon is not very powerful. It is nothing more than an ordinary sword with a special curse.
Various things can be attached to weapons - but people generally rarely choose to curse.
After all, curses, no matter what, will cause a certain degree of erosion to the holder himself. Using a cursed sword should be regarded as "scum".
However, at this time, the curse is very appropriate.
Moher had only one curse to add to the sword -
"the curse of becoming a demon".
Whoever loses will become a demon.
Rose, who witnessed Moher cursing the sword, could not help but feel complicated.
She felt that the Demon King Moher had many ways to turn people into demons. She could create vampires like Lisiduowei out of thin air, but she could also use "dead people" to create a demon like Rose's birth. She could also curse people to make them demons.
She seemed to love turning humans into demons so much.
Obviously, the situation of demons in this era was really bad.
Why didn't she let herself return to the identity of a demon first?
She herself knew that it was better to be active in human society as a human.
"Why did you say that? The two of them would not know each other's true feelings through the sword."
This kind of presumptuous question was not the first time Rose made it. But this time was different.
She was ready to use her sword against Moher - although this idea was probably very stupid, the back-up plan Moher left on her was probably enough to control her - although Rose didn't know what this back-up plan was. But the devil couldn't be defenseless against his creation, after all, Lisiduowei had already betrayed her once.
Moher kept talking about reflection, so she couldn't not be on guard.
But Rose was still ready to use her sword.
"Rose, although you have been active as a new hero - but I have to say that your thoughts are still very naive." Moher didn't even turn his head, and focused on adding a curse to the sword, "Let me tell you something, when you question a person's decision, you'd better have an alternative plan."
Rose was stunned for a moment.
"Just like when you were dueling with A. Godola at that time, you'd better have a plan to replace him - the facts proved that you didn't do a good job."
The dark gas continued to seep into the sword.
"When you think that I said that they should duel with swords, you'd better have a better way to break the deadlock, instead of being ready to draw your sword against me after I said to duel with swords."
She picked up the sword and looked at it carefully. Looking at the mysterious pattern on it due to the curse, she felt that her skills were still as good as ever. Her eyes finally deviated from the sword and fell on Rose: "Regardless of whether you can kill me or not, let's assume that you kill me, then what? Can you solve the problem of Godora and A. Sion?"
"Do you want him to return to his teacher's school?"
"I..."
Rose couldn't answer Moher for a while. She certainly didn't want Doro to return to A. Sion's school. A. Sion was a weird, twisted person. She had an obsession with A. Godora from the beginning. Doro would never be happy with that woman.
Rose was sure of this.
Besides, the other party was the culprit who killed her. She knew what the other party was thinking. The other party thought that she was one of the murderers who hurt A. Godola and that she had betrayed A. Godola.
Rose couldn't deny this.
That's why she stayed by Doro's side, not asking for his forgiveness, but only hoping to devote everything to him to pay for the sins of the past.
It's called a duel. The ones who should really duel are Rose and A. Sion.
"Speaking of which, you are not as good as Lisi Duowei, a creature who is born not to have the emotion called love. At least Lisi Duowei did abandon everything for the one she loves. If A. Sion could do this, Doro wouldn't be here now."
Moher sighed: "If you can do this, Rose, you won't question me here."
"I..."
That's not the case. I'm ready to devote everything to Doro. This life was saved because of Doro. The worst result for her is to return her life to him. She is determined to do so.
Demon King Moher clearly did not take back her eyes, but her eyes still seemed to be able to see through the truth and illusion.
"It doesn't mean that giving up one's life means being able to give up everything. Many times, death is just a way of escaping. Just like when many humans came to me and committed suicide. In order to escape from something they fear, humans will choose to give up their lives. What are you afraid of?"
What am I afraid of?
Moher did not give Rose more room to think. She just handed the sword to Rose: "There are two swords in total, but I only added a curse that can turn people into demons to one sword. They look the same on the surface, and the aura is the same. However, as a demon now, you can more or less perceive the difference between the two swords, right? Who should hold such a sword? I'll let you choose."
The girl's smile was extremely deep.
Rose just felt terrified.
