"Ah Chu, let me see that spear of yours again!”
I nodded happily at him.
Holding the gun under his ribs and holding the top of the gun handle, he used the lever principle to allow the gun to sweep across the largest range. For a weapon like a gun that relied on its range of attack, making full use of its length advantage was the key.
The heavy weight of the spear made the attack more stable. After I turned my wrist slightly, the heavy spear stabbed out quickly and steadily like a thunderbolt.
When the spear's tip pierced through the air with the momentum of breaking through everything, the Eye King suddenly appeared in its attack trajectory. He quickly spun the sword in his hand and used the blade to meet the tip of the spear. His eyes flickered with eagerness.
However, using a line attack like Chop to deal with a point-like attack like Spike was incomparable in terms of density. Let alone neutralizing it, the blade was easily shattered before it could even resist.
As the spear continued to move forward, Tong Jun's hands were empty. Because I wanted to show him the Extreme Ardent Spear, I used all my strength. Once it was sent out, it would no longer be under my control. It would only destroy everything in its predicted trajectory.
In an instant, time flowed extremely slowly in front of my eyes. The tip of the spear seemed to be moving in slow motion as it approached him millimeter by millimeter. Hitomi's face was infinitely magnified in front of my eyes. I could even see every pore on his skin.
I really hope that I can use up all my spiritual pressure in this moment. As long as I can stop the gun in my hand, it doesn't matter even if I become an ordinary soul in the future.
The huge downdraft that was falling from above came down with a whistling sound. The wind of this degree could tear everything it touched, even the ground. It was just to control the spear. The fierce impact bent the spear handle heavily. The gun flew out of my hand and made a loud clang in the scattered grass. It made such a heavy sound even when it landed on the soft grass.
My knees gave way and I fell to the ground. Tong Jun had already sat on the grass.
As he supported himself with his hands and panted heavily, he said," Stupid, stupid!!!”I couldn't help but curse, so angry that I even forgot my honorifics."What the hell are you thinking? To suddenly rush out…there must be a limit to what he could do! Idiot!"
How terrifying. At that moment, a chill surged up from the bottom of his heart. That fear of losing something…Even now, when he thought about it, he still felt lingering fear. I touched my chest. My heart finally calmed down. I was really scared out of my wits just now.
"That…" Tong Jun looked at me blankly.
"Go to hell!" His nerves relaxed, and his eyes suddenly became hot.
" Hey, don't look so murderous…" He smiled at me foolishly.
"Wumou!"
"Yes, yes." He waved his hands at me, and his silly face was so ridiculous that it made people angry.
"Please, can't you think before you do anything!!”
"Understood!" He made a funny face at me, which made me both angry and amused.
"Idiot!" My aura had already weakened, so Tong Jun took advantage of this moment to step up his pacification offensive.
" Don't be angry. You're right about me. I'm not resourceful, I lack consideration, and I'm not capable…" He rubbed the back of his head and smiled innocently." I overestimated myself and wanted to see if I was qualified to be your opponent. In the end, it turned out that I'm still far from it!"”
"What nonsense are you talking about!" I looked up at him gloomily.
However, there wasn't a hint of gloominess or unwillingness on his face. He smiled brightly, and his narrowed eyes even flashed with the luster of happiness.
"Ah Chu, this is the first time I've seen you so angry.”
Sitting on the ground, he bent down and stretched out his arm to me who was kneeling on the grass. He pressed his palm on my head." I'm really sorry for making you worry.”Then he raised his right hand and swore,""I promise you, I won't do such a dangerous thing again!”
" There's still a next time…" But I was interrupted by him. "Your face?"! What's going on?" He pulled me over and stared at the bloody wound on my face that was cut by the wind blade.
Just now, I first ensured that the wind barrier around him was not strong enough when it was my turn.
"It's okay. It'll be fine soon.”
I wasn't faking my nonchalant tone. I really felt that I was too lucky to be able to save him with such a small injury. However, Tong Jun was clearly unable to accept it. After beating his chest and stamping his feet, Tong Jun suddenly said with a solemn expression,"Ah Chu, if you…"
I suddenly had a bad feeling. It was this stupid thing. No matter what he said, it was possible.
"Wait, don't say anything!" His natural speech was as effective as a nuclear warhead. He would never stop until he scared people to death.
"No, in every sense, it's my responsibility!”
Seeing his rare serious expression, I had a bad feeling.
"No, please don't continue…"
I already know what he wants to say. It's definitely something I don't want to hear at all…
Tong Jun ignored me and continued talking to himself,""If you can't get married in the future, that's my responsibility! We were childhood sweethearts, and I ruined your face…"
"No, please don't worry about me…" I said to him.
"What? Are you a girl?”Tong Jun was also anxious. He raised his voice and argued with an almost quarrelling tone,"A girl's face is the most precious thing! Why do I feel like you don't take it seriously?!”
I sighed. You finally know that I really don't care.
"To me, the most important thing is strength. If he lost the hand that held the sword, that would be the most terrifying thing.”It didn't matter what his face was.
" Phew!" Tong Jun let out a long breath, his face full of " I really can't stand you " expression. He pinched the thinnest part of my wrist with his index finger and thumb, then pinched my upper arm, and then waved his hand weakly." Such a thin wrist. It's hard to believe that she used such a powerful spear technique just now. Moreover, she even created such a powerful wind…"
"I say…you already have such great power, and you still want to pursue greater power?”He tilted his head and sized me up in confusion."Does having power mean having happiness?”
I shook my head. Possessing power was for the happiness of others.”
Tong Jun's eyes widened, unable to speak for a moment.
After a long time, with a gentle expression that he had never had before, he smiled and said,"Hey, you said just now that strength is strong because of willpower, right?”
I nodded.
"I…have the same opinion as you.”
Tong Jun lay down on the grass with his arms behind his head. He extended his arm straight to the sky and squinted at the radiance of the sun through the gaps between his fingers. Then, he pressed his palm on his chest.
"I believe that the strongest power exists here.”
The heart, the heart that wanted to protect something was the strongest.
He turned his head and looked at me who was kneeling at the side.
"It's because you have someone you want to protect that you've been firmly pursuing the path of power until today, right?”
When I met his gaze, I nodded affirmatively.
" Hehe…" He rubbed his nose and suddenly let out an inappropriate laugh.
"I have more or less received hints before…but you actually comprehended the essence of power and the correct way to pursue power by yourself…although I am a little unwilling, I still lost.”He sighed happily." That's why I hate geniuses."
Eh? Don't compare yourself, who cares about you-
"It's a competition between me and myself.”He smiled and narrowed his eyes at me." I can only protect you if I'm stronger than you. If I'm weaker than you, wouldn't I have to be protected by you? That would be too embarrassing!"”
Who needs your protection, big idiot? My soft muttering was heard. Don't tell me you always think you're my protector? No way…" He wailed exaggeratedly and was interrupted by me,""You're thinking too much."
"Ahhhh! Have you never thought of protecting me?”
The shock of this thought seemed to be greater than anything else. After he hugged his head and howled for a while, he suddenly leaned close to my face and whispered mysteriously,"Hey, then why do you want to obtain power?”
"Whose happiness do you intend to use your power to protect?”
I blushed and said that it was a secret, which made him shout unhappily,"That's not enough!"
Then, a huge hound appeared in front of me. Tong Jun seemed to have grown furry ears as he wagged his tail and jumped around,""Hey, hey, tell me if you're a friend! Don't worry, I won't tell anyone! Yes, yes, I can help you protect your important person! We were childhood sweethearts, right? The person important to you is the person important to me!”
About the person I wanted to protect, and about how I felt when I swore to protect his happiness-they were the most precious things to me, so I didn't intend to tell anyone.
However, when I met Tong Jun's sparkling eyes, I felt that I couldn't refuse any of his requests. I had no choice but to whisper something else into his ear without revealing the secret.
"Eh? Really?" Tong Jun's eyes suddenly shone with disbelief.
Yes. I blushed. Although I didn't dare to look at him, I nodded with certainty.
Instantly, his entire body seemed to be fully charged, emitting a dazzling light under the sun.
" Hey, hehe…" He seemed to be relieved. He patted his chest exaggeratedly and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Ohoho--" He suddenly roared and straightened his body, giving me a fright. I say…I only said that sentence, is it worth being happy about?
"Of course! For a child like you who is not honest, that sentence is like a confession!”
"Hey, hey?"
"I'm fine, I'm fine, hehe…"
His smile, in my eyes, became an indelible afterimage.
