I became a cannon fodder villain. If I want to survive, I must take care of my baby first.
Chapter 113: Above the Ancient Gods
"Lenas Luo." Luo Shiqi recited the name softly.
The time spent with her was so far away that even Luo Shiqi himself could hardly remember it.
"Can you tell me what happened to you before?" Manjushage hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
"They are all very boring things. If you are willing to listen, I will try my best to tell you everything I remember." He was originally immersed in sadness, but when he heard Manjushage's voice, he felt relieved unconsciously.
"I'm happy to do so." A warm smile like a blooming spring flower bloomed on Manjusaka's beautiful face.
She was actually very conflicted. If Luo Shiqi remembered the past, would their relationship change?
But when she thought about getting to know him better and getting closer to him, Manjushage was not so worried anymore.
No matter how bitter his past is, Luo Shiqi is still Luo Shiqi, and this will never change.
So, let me get to know you a little better.
Seeing Manjushage's attitude, the others also expressed no objection. They were all very curious about what kind of past the strongest magician had.
"There is no blood relationship between me and Renas. She has been an orphan since childhood. I fell from the sky and just happened to help her out. Renas said she wanted to repay me, but she couldn't give herself to a stranger, so she treated me as her sister. In fact, she looks younger than me, and I prefer to call her by her name." That was many years ago, Luo Shiqi could no longer remember.
He was very mean at the beginning. Even if Reinas was bullied, cried hard, or was seriously injured, he didn't feel the slightest bit of emotion.
Do what you should do and put yourself first in everything; this is Luo Shiqi's code of conduct.
"Wow, you were such a selfish person back then." Doyle showed a look of disgust.
"Haha, it's funny, like me and Lenas, one was only thinking about himself, and the other was always trying to please others, two extreme weirdos got together and yet we could actually get along well." Luo Shiqi just smiled at Doyle's accusations.
Both the brother and sister lacked common sense and had no aspirations in life. They worked together every day and the days passed like this.
Luo Shiqi's magic is very powerful, and Lenas is notorious in the local area. No one wants to ask them for help, but they dare not refuse.
"I never thought about the relationship between me and Renas, nor did I think we were close enough to be called family, until that day when the High Priest came to me and told me that Renas would never come back." Luo Shiqi's voice was full of melancholy, and he couldn't help but recall the scene of that day in his mind.
"Is that so?" Luo Shiqi still accepted the fact calmly.
However, the priest's expression was surprised: "You have a good relationship."
"Why do you say that?" Luo Shiqi asked puzzledly.
"Because you are crying." The priest looked at him with a complicated expression.
"Crying... because of sadness?" Luo Shiqi couldn't understand his own behavior. He reached out to touch his tears, but found that they couldn't stop falling. His heart hurt so much that he had difficulty breathing.
This was the first time he realized he was capable of normal mood swings.
"She turned into a monster, right?" Manjushage couldn't bear to see Luo Shiqi so sad, and just wanted to open her arms and hug him tightly.
"Yeah." Luo Shiqi nodded, trying to make his voice sound calmer: "She went out alone that day and was involved in an accident. She was trapped in the ancient seal with the High Priest."
The seal was so strong that they could not break it from the inside, and no one from the outside world came to their aid.
After many unsuccessful attempts, the two people just chatted casually.
Renas talked to the priest about her and Luo Shiqi's daily life. From a poor orphan who was bullied by everyone to a buzz-cut bully who no one dared to mess with, every ordinary and busy day was a miracle.
The priestess listened quietly, her eyes full of envy.
It was then that Renas realized that the high-ranking priestess was actually just a puppet of others, and that those in power pushed her to the high position just to consolidate their own position.
The priest can only silently endure everything brought to her by those in high positions.
She also longed to have a family, and the moment she saw Luo Shiqi, her desolate heart was excited to the extreme.
But she suddenly realized that if she reunited with her lost brother like this, it would only cause him and Reinas to lose their freedom.
Therefore, the priest chose to let Luo Shiqi stay, as it was much safer here than staying with her.
In the end, it still implicated Renas.
The group of people who controlled the priests wanted to resurrect the ancient giant snake Jörmungandr to realize their dream of dominating the world, and sacrificed the priests. It was at that time that Lenas was involved.
The two girls understood each other because they were from the same family. They hugged each other and waited for death to come.
However, the moment he woke up, Renas was gone.
Her magic can give her extremely strong vitality, and she will never give in even when facing a brutal giant snake.
Renas took the place of the priest and used her own life to open a way for her to survive, but the price was that she turned herself into the legendary monster, Jörmungandr.
Even though she was cursed and turned into a terrifying giant snake, Renas still retained a trace of her own consciousness.
In order to protect Luo Shiqi, she angrily killed all those who could threaten the priest and help her gain power.
When her consciousness was about to lose control, Lenas bit her only weakness, which was her tail, and ended Jörmungandr's life prematurely by committing suicide.
"This is the beginning of human nature." Rujing was deeply moved by Renas's deeds, with tears in her delicate eyes.
"But Jörmungandr's life has no end. Even if it sinks to the bottom of the sea after death, its huge body will absorb everything in the sea in order to resurrect itself. This is the origin of the Sea of Illusion." Luo Shiqi was very tired when he said these words. Even now, he would never have thought that Lenas would do this for him.
As long as Jörmungandr is not destroyed, Lenas's suffering will not end.
"It turns out the legend is true." Manjushage did not feel the slightest bit of jealousy towards Reinas and respected her from the bottom of her heart.
Suddenly, she seemed to realize something: "Could the recent earthquake be..."
Luo Shiqi nodded: "Jörmungandr will soon be revived."
He looked at the Ouroboros painted on the ceiling above his head: "If it wakes up, I'm afraid I won't be able to kill Renas like I did the monster, and I will be defeated by her."
By then, the cold-blooded and merciless ancient snake will return to its brutal and murderous nature and crush everything with its huge body.
This is the end of all mankind.
The beginning and end of mankind would actually be decided by an ordinary girl. This was unthinkable in the past.
However, it is what it is.
"Honestly, living on the corpse of a giant snake is really a bit scary." Doyle laughed dryly a few times and found that the atmosphere was still solemn.
"Is there no other way to bring Renas back to life, even if it means separating her soul..." Manjushage really didn't want Luo Shiqi to make such a cruel choice.
But she also knew that if the two fragile consciousnesses merged, even if they were separated, it would probably only end in a miserable end.
And he is the only one who has the ability to kill Jörmungandr.
Seeing Luo Shiqi's heavy expression, Manjushage felt a pang of heartache. She raised her head and said to him in a loud voice: "But, her wish is for you to live, right? Although I don't want to say this, is Renas still herself now?"
"Ms. Manjusaka—"
"elder sister?"
Everyone looked at her with fear in their eyes.
In fact, everyone thought so in their hearts. What Luo Shiqi had to do was very simple, which was to kill Jörmungandr.
But how painful it would be for him to kill his beloved family with his own hands!
"Well, I understand." However, Luo Shiqi did not get angry or struggle in pain. He calmly held Manjushage's hand and said, "To end Renas's suffering, Jörmungandr must be killed completely. Even if my magic can do it, it will be difficult to do it."
His golden eyes radiated a determined look, and they met with Lycoris's ice-blue eyes: "But, if you are here, I might be able to do it, not to kill Renas, but to cut off the past. Because she would never want to become a curse that binds me."
