Demon King, Don’t Run Away Chapter 767: Fragments of memory
Kloach kept listening quietly, and one picture after another gradually appeared in his eyes.
......
......
"Sister, what's wrong?"
"Cloch, listen to me, this kid Laux has been in the room for three full days. The only person he respects most is you. Please go and say a few words."
Walking into the dim room, a thin little boy huddled in the corner.
Hearing the sound, the little boy raised his head slightly, his eyes dull. As soon as he met his eyes, he shrank in the corner.
"Loux, I want to talk to you."
"......"
"I heard that a body was found outside the village..."
The little boy grabbed his hair hard and buried his head deeper into his knees, trembling all over.
"It's not my fault, it's definitely not my fault. It's all that guy's fault. He's obviously not much older than me, but he ended up acting like he was superior and kept saying that I was a dwarf...
What’s even more annoying is...he bullied Xiaohua and claimed to be..."
As he spoke, the little boy burst into tears and threw himself into his arms.
......
After that.
......
"Uncle... I want to become stronger, please give me the way to become stronger."
"Why do you want to become stronger suddenly."
"Because I have decided to become a brave man. Tell me, what should a true brave man look like?"
......
After that.
......
"Have you really decided, Laux? You want to stay away from the village and live alone."
"Yes. Finding reliable partners is also a part of becoming a qualified hero."
"I have nothing to give you, so I will give you this sword that has been with me for many years.
This sword is very special. As long as the materials are gathered together, it will never be damaged.
Of course it is incomparable to the real holy sword. ”
"Such a valuable thing...I accepted it, thank you uncle."
......
After that.
......
"Wait a minute, Crouch's job is too dangerous. You are absolutely not allowed to do this job."
"If I don't do it, then that kid Rocks will definitely..."
......
After that.
......
"Uncle, what is going on? What is this tragic scene..."
"Loux, as you can see, I am now a cadre of the Demon King."
......
......
Perhaps I made a pretty bad choice.
But at that time it was the best way I could think of.
......
I don’t know how long it took.
......
"Long time no see, uncle."
"Long time no see. I told you the truth, now it's my turn to know the truth, right?"
"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry, Laux. All of this is my fault."
The last time I saw Laux, the once young boy had already turned into a twilight old man. His eyes were deep and firm, as if nothing could shake his determination.
That cowardly and crybaby Laux actually showed such an expression.
Time can really change a person a lot.
At that time, the only thing Crouch could do was to keep apologizing, and then accept the task of guarding the [Palace of Power].
Although he wanted to ask Laux what adventures he had after his death, Crouch knew that he was not qualified to learn about his adventures over the years from Laux.
In Crouch's heart, there has always been an unrealistic and extremely beautiful fantasy.
The devil was finally repelled, and the family happily sat around the stove. However, it was not Crouch who told his adventure story, but Laux who returned in triumph and told his own adventure story. story.
"I can't believe that he has truly become a true warrior."
After listening to Yang Yu’s story, Cloach let out a long sigh, but he didn’t seem so surprised.
"Since then, he has grown at an alarming rate, and it is expected that such a day will come."
Observing Crouch, Yang Yu could see Crouch's extremely satisfied smile.
Even though he had just said that he had massacred his own village, he had been listening to Laux's adventure stories with great interest.
Yang Yu seemed to have smelled something that could be mined, and carefully probed:
"I have told you everything I know.
You and Laux are from the same hometown. I have conquered so many labyrinths of Laux, and gradually I want to know the story behind this brave man.
Can you tell me the story about Lox that you remember. ”
"Laux has made his own contribution to this world, and it would be good to continue to spread it like this.
About what I know about Laux...
Perhaps, I never got to know him well.
So even if you ask me to tell you something about Laux, I really can’t tell you. ”
Cloach expressed his refusal tactfully.
It was inconvenient for Yang Yu to continue asking questions, so he had to find another way.
"Can you tell me about your life?"
After pondering for a moment, Crouch crossed his hands and smiled,
“That is a boring story about an unknown weakling struggling in pain.
My name, or the names of other soldiers who fought in that war, will not be recorded in anything at all.
I am both a human and a former member of the Demon King's army.
This identity is special enough.
However, in our time, this identity was not at all special. On the contrary, it was quite common.
Although I have betrayed humanity, it is not enough for me to remain infamy for eternity.
My story is like a grain of sand. When blown, it peels off from history and disappears without a trace. ”
"But what you have done has also indirectly affected history, and the impact of this history must have affected many other people."
"You are really good at talking. But..."
Kloach vaguely overlapped Yang Yu's figure with the childish figure he once had, but as soon as they overlapped, the two figures naturally became separated.
Although he said similar things, the young man in front of him was completely different from Laux.
I don’t know if Laux will show an expression similar to the young man in front of him when he is overcoming obstacles and killing the devil.
Probably impossible!
When Laux's sword pierced his chest, even though Laux had gained a lot of growth, Crouch knew that Laux was still young and weak in his bones.
If his death can make him stronger and move closer to a true warrior, then his death will be more meaningful.
That’s what I thought when I died.
But no one can tell what impact it had on Laux.
"But...this should be a story that can be told later."
Kloach stood up from the ground, spread his arms, and said with a smile:
"Off topic, I said a little too much.
I ask again, which one do you want to be your opponent?
If you are here for power, then use the four demon sculptures as your opponents.
If you just entered here by mistake and have no desire, then you only need to defeat me.
Okay, let’s choose!
Do you crave the power contained in this maze? ”
