MTL - The Track of Dawn In the World of Marvel-Chapter 649 16 You who will dominate the sky in the future need to be firm enough

  Chapter 649 16. You who will dominate the sky in the future need to be firm enough and not have weaknesses

"What’s wrong with you?"

  Mason had just finished checking the area where the tuning fork was located, and the moment he returned to Osborne Tower and opened the office door, he saw a distraught Ciri sitting on his chair with bare feet.

   It was rare for him to see Ciri stepping forward in such an embarrassment, when he saw Lord Hunter's eyes were red.

  Her hair was still wet, and she was wearing only a dressing gown and not even underwear. Well, well, not the time to be concerned.

  After seeing Mason appear, Ciri couldn't stop crying.

  She thought she would never cry again, but it turns out that such strong emotional fluctuations are often not restricted by her own thoughts. If you don't cry, it only means that you have not yet reached the point of sadness.

   "Don't cry, what happened?"

  Seeing Ciri like this, Mason's heart sank. He pulled Ciri up from the chair, took out a handkerchief to help her wipe her wet silver hair, and took off her coat by the way and put it around her shoulders.

   "He caught them"

  Ciri lay in Mason's arms and said in a hoarse voice:

   "I thought they died no, they didn't get such a merciful death it was a conspiracy. Seventeen years old A and Mephisto teamed up.

   It's not just his trap for you, the devil is involved too.

do not go!

   Never go. "

  Although Ciri's words were confusing, Mason quickly understood. He stared at Ciri and asked seriously:

   "You mean, Mr. Geralt and Ms. Yennefer did not die in exile seventeen years ago? No, their bodies cannot survive in the broken star core, so it is the soul, right?

  The best tricks of the devils.

   Mephisto hid the souls of your parents, and now gave them to old A as bait to lure you into the bait? Using you who will surely pass to lead me into the death trap prepared for me? "

"Um."

   Ciri lowered her head while sniffling.

   This was the first time in seventeen years that she was so upset.

  Mason took a deep breath, stretched out his hand and patted the head of Ciri in his arms, and said with relief:

   "It's okay, I finally know how to say hello to me before I act, instead of running over on my own."

   "Aren't you angry?"

  Hearing this, Ciri looked up at Mason in surprise, and said:

  "You know I can't sit back and watch my parents' souls be disposed of by old A, I must go, but... I don't know what to do, I have been thinking about how to break the situation, but I can't think of a way.

  I know you can't give up on me.

   But that's a trap. "

   "Thinking about it, this means that I finally have the opportunity to meet the most legendary witcher and witch."

  Mason put his arm around Ciri's waist, lowered his head and squeezed his eyes and said to him:

   "They were the idols of the previous old K. As the current old K, I am also very interested in those legendary stories. I have always wanted to see how heroic and chic the protagonists in those stories should be."

   "You may be disappointed, my father is quite a dull man."

  When Shirley saw Mason's smile, the pressure in her heart dissipated a lot. With tears in her eyes, she pursed her lips and said:

   "But shouldn't you be worried? In this situation where we are going to die if we fail, in this situation you are likely to die because of me.

  Your career, your ideals, everything you have will fall apart because of me, a woman who is not worthy of your love.

  Why are you still laughing? "

   "Because if I said that I expected all of this, wouldn't you be offended?"

  Mason lowered his head, and when Ciri took the initiative to stand on tiptoe, their lips touched together, like warm fingers soothing uneasiness, and like cuddling each other in a winter night.

  Today, Ciri seemed active and enthusiastic as if she had returned to the swordsman's ward, and seemed to be the last thing on her bucket list before facing death.

   After parting his lips for a long time, Mason looked at the unique cat-like eyes in front of him, and he explained:

  "When old A sent that message, I knew he must have one or more backup plans, and he wouldn't hope that my brain would go wattless and then step into the trap he prepared for me unsuspecting.

  He never intended to hook me with this text in the first place.

  The two key points I am most worried about are the first sequence and you. It turns out that old A has grasped the key points. Do you still remember that he has suppressed the first sequence in the second text message he sent me?

  That's actually another threat. "

  The captain sighed, took Ciri by the waist and walked with her to the floor-to-ceiling windows of the office, looking at the surging sea water and the warm sunlight projected from the sky in front of him.

  The scale of the Forbidden Forest Island is larger than it seemed two days ago, fully proving that the soul of the forest seems to have sensed the hidden hope and began to thrive.

   Mason looked at the scene in front of him, and he said:

   "You are the second threat he gave me. I imagined how he would coerce you, but I really didn't expect that the backhand of this trick has been hidden for seventeen years.

  From this point of view, the old A really impressed me.

   But thinking about it the other way around, the alliance between him and Mephisto does not surprise me at all, just like the relationship between toilets and flies. "

   Ciri didn't answer.

  She just quietly put on Mason's coat, put her head on Mason's shoulder, and quietly listened to the partner in her heart talk about his thoughts and plans.

  It wasn't until this moment that Ciri really realized that he had inadvertently built a solid iron wall that could protect and support him in any situation.

  It seems that any wind and rain can hide in Mason's shadow and don't have to worry about it anymore.

   This feeling is not bad. No, this feeling is so good that people want to indulge in it, let it be wrapped in tenderness, drown in this touch of reassuring touch and never wake up in the cruel reality.

"Now that they have joined together, I don't have to spend time worrying about how to prioritize this confrontation. Now that the two enemies have joined forces to bury me and my ideals with a despicable assassination, then we They simply took this opportunity to defeat their evil alliance together.

   It may be difficult, but it is not impossible, and in fact I have always had such a plan. "

  Mason's eyes turned cold.

He said:

   "Both sides advance at the same time, let them usher in their demise while expecting my death! This is the passing day of their position selection, so let them do as they wish.

   Ciri"

"Um?"

  Master Hunter snorted, and heard Mason say to her:

   "The problem you have been worrying about may have reached the time to solve it."

   Ciri trembled.

  She understood what Mason meant, so she sighed and said:

   "So, tomorrow night is the date of my death, which is really not surprising, but I am not as desperate or painful as I imagined, and I don't find it hard to accept.

  Maybe I've resigned myself to my fate. "

   "You will die, but then you will rise to a new, beautiful, pure you."

  Mason took a step back, took out a small box from his pocket and opened it in front of Healy. Inside was a ring that was exactly the same as the wedding rings on Harry and Quinn's fingers.

  The only difference is in the details. The face of this ring has been polished into the shape of a wolf's head, which looks beautiful and mysterious.

  The captain said with apology:

   "I have given a promise to my cuties, and it would be disrespectful to both of you to pass it on to you.

I can no longer promise you the promise called marriage, but I think we may be able to spend this destined long life as lovers. If Hei Qiyi hears what I said at this time, he will definitely send a thunderbolt Smash my skull.

   But it is what it is.

   I choose to be a bad man.

   It's not that I want to be like this, it's just that I met a soul who can't let me continue to love purely. "

   “I never expected that either.”

   Ciri was more calm than expected.

  She looked at the ring in front of her. She didn't even need Mason to put it on for her, but it was like taking the crown and put it on her head. She picked up the ring and put it on her finger, saying:

  "For a demon hunter, a stable life is unimaginable. My parents never had a marriage contract when they died, but this does not prevent their sincere feelings from becoming a model of mutual torture.

do you know?

  They were bound together because of Di Jing's curse, and there was a time in their lives when they went crazy trying to undo this curse and set each other free.

  From character, identity, status to pursuit, they are completely unworthy in every aspect of life, and they themselves think that it is just a bad relationship.

   They want to give each other relief as the end of a messy relationship.

   And they did.

  They found a powerful aggregate of supernatural forces in that destroyed world, and asked Nadi to end their cursed relationship.

   They finally got their lives back, but guess what? "

   Ciri smiled and said to Mason:

  "On the night when the supernatural partner contract ended, they realized their hearts. They should come together, not because of the contract, nor because of a simple physical relationship.

   That's love!

  In the process of constantly torturing each other, hating each other, quarreling and reuniting, they have been linked by fate, just like us.

  The so-called marriage, is it still important in front of such a relationship?

  Leave the stable and neurotic part of your character to Harley and Quinn, they need it more than me, if I can return from death and return to your side, then the rest of you will belong to me. "

   "Well, even though it feels like you three women are going to strangle me in bed one night and take me away in three parts."

   Mason shrugged and said:

   "But it's not a romantic way to die, is it? Don't you ask me how I plan to let you accomplish such a miracle as death and resurrection?"

   "No, I don't care at all, even though I thought I would, but I don't."

  Hiri reached out and peeled off the coat that Mason had wrapped around her body. She looked at Mason, put her ring-wearing hand on his shoulder, and pulled his head towards her firmly and irresistibly.

she says:

  "I know you can definitely do it, I believe in you! Even if you can't, please let me leave this not-so-good world in a beautiful lie, let me live forever in your memories in romance

   The bride and groom have exchanged rings and now it's time to complete the final part of the wedding.

What are you waiting for?

   Do you want me to take the initiative all the way? Hmm. It's not impossible. "

   "Hush!"

  Mason stretched out his finger and pressed it against Ciri's pouting lips.

  He squeezed his eyes and showed a very embarrassed smile on his face, and waved his fingers so that the coat on the ground was raised again and covered the hunter's shoulders.

  He bent down and whispered in Ciri's ear:

"Save it for when you're really mine, now that you're one with Mephisto, can you understand? Always feel closer to you when I'm with that sick old devil Do something that cannot pass the trial.

Be patient.

   If you're expecting our story to be as classic as your parents' tear-jerking and horrifying tormenting love story, be patient.

   And we have no time to waste, my lord hunter.

  We have to discuss the plan before we act, about how to keep me alive and let you successfully rescue your parents before you die.

  I guess, old A never thought of this. "

  Mason kissed Ciri's smooth forehead, and said:

   "He never thought that we would respond to his malice with death. From this point of view, when he bullies you with despicable means, his failure is already doomed.

   If you have decided to die, then Liana and the old Shazam who are connected with your fate must also get a guarantee. I mean, you may have to act as a self-developed drug test product of the Mason Manufacturing Group.

   But don't worry, you have a special status, so I will prepare an 'insurance' for you.

   But considering that we have already complained to each other, can I write my name in the beneficiary column of this insurance? "

   "Your joke is really bad!"

—

  Xi Li returned to Starsburg an hour later. She came back alone, but compared to the lonely and desperate time when she went, her mood was undoubtedly much better when she returned.

  Although the problem was not really resolved, the pressure to share it with others undoubtedly could no longer shake her will.

   Not to mention the promises and agreements obtained, they warm people's hearts like embers in the dark and alone in the dark.

But Lord Hunter is Lord Hunter after all. After witnessing the experience of his parents stepping into star core exile and facing death in order to protect the morality in their hearts, he is no longer willing to hand over his life to others. Although he has Mason's promise, But she still hopes to complete this last step by herself.

  After returning to the Castle of Stars, Ciri came to the closely guarded shadow city alone. She walked among the roads surrounded by countless candlelights, and her shadow was stretched extremely long by the beating light.

   "What are you going to do?"

  Old Shazam, who was still guarding the sea of ​​candles, sensed someone coming from behind, and said:

   "You shouldn't be here, Ciri, Mason told me not to move any candle here, especially not to let you move."

   "I will not interfere with other people's lives, wizard."

  Master Hunter said softly:

   "I just came to take the candle that belongs to me. I will travel far away, and maybe I will never come back. I think I have the right to take away the last thing that belongs to me in this castle."

   "Has the situation reached this far?"

  Old Shazam seemed to understand, he said with a sad face:

   "It seems that you have made up your mind. Compared with your decisiveness, I, a wizard who has lived for nine thousand years, is still greedy for life and afraid of death."

   "Who wants to die if they can live? I just bring it just in case."

   Ciri complained, leaped over the old wizard and jumped up from under the brilliant crystal chandelier, and took down one of the three candles at the highest point.

  The silver flame that belonged to her was still burning, shining brightly in Ciri's hands.

  The candle and the firelight have no magic, and maybe they won’t have a second purpose other than to illuminate the darkness, even if you pinch it hard, you can leave fingerprints on it.

   is like a symbol of the fragility of life and the impermanence of life.

   "Be careful when carrying it."

  Old Shazam warned:

   "If those things are blown out by the wind, you will be finished. Mephisto can obviously make them indestructible, but he has to use the most common raw materials to make these things that can control life.

   This may be his bad taste, but it also proves that we are not as strong as we thought.

  Each soul may be fragile and needs to be protected gently by a pair of hands. "

   "I got it to extinguish it. It doesn't matter if it is blown out by the wind or someone. It is just death. If you are not afraid of it, it is not worth being afraid of."

  Hiri looked at the burning candle in her hand, and the ring on her finger shone with a different kind of brilliance under the dancing light, illuminating her eyes and outline.

   In a chic waving farewell without looking back, she said:

   "My heart has been filled with tenderness and light, and there is no room for fear and darkness. Good luck, old man, and may you face death like me."

   "Tch, let's go, you still insist on giving me a mouthful of dog food when you say goodbye."

  The wizard watched the hunter leave the Shadow City, curled his lips, took out a cigarette, and lit it on a nearby candle.

  He complained:

"This terrible era is really unfriendly to single dogs. Maybe I should pray that it will be destroyed in the next second. Uh, I am a mage who masters the spirit of speech, so forget it, just pretend that I haven't prayed." .

   There are still so many people who haven’t lived enough, so don’t show up.”
