The rain had stopped at some point, and the dark clouds gradually dispersed, revealing the color of dawn in the sky. It seemed that Thor had put away his thunder hammer, and Poseidon had also put away his trident. On the other hand, our side was still fighting hard. The Angel Corps had suffered heavy losses, and now only a few teams were fighting side by side with Apollo and the others.
I was dazzled, and my arms and legs gradually became numb. I couldn't help but curse. There were two angry roars, and from the corner of my eye, I saw the two black-winged angels that Aphrodite called Fear and Quarrel flapping their wings and pouncing towards Bamen. Just as their bloody scythes were about to hook his pale and thin face, Bamen suddenly opened his eyes. His dark red eyes stretched out his bloodthirsty tongue to lick his lips. His left chest shone brightly, and his face suddenly disappeared. Fear and Quarrel fell to the ground with a loud thud. Their wings were broken and they were covered in blood.
But just now, Bamen didn't even move. He didn't even make a move, but he defeated two of the War God's capable followers. I staggered and swung my silver sword. With a buzzing sound, more than ten monsters fell to the ground. The encirclement was loosened. I looked up and saw Bamen. He was looking in my direction with an evil smile. In an instant, his face was as beautiful as a flower. He stretched out his hand towards me. In a flash, all the monsters in the surroundings disappeared. When I heard Apollo's hysterical shout, I lowered my hands. The ferocious beasts below drowned the gods.
Hanging in mid-air, the whole of Lemnos Island fell into my eyes. The uneven hills and primitive forests surrounded the city. As I flew over Lemnos City, I couldn't help but wonder if I could take another look at Achilles. I was really a person who didn't keep my word. I had only agreed to be with him and had only just made up my mind to be with him wholeheartedly. Things really didn't go as I wished!
I didn't know where Baptiste was taking me, but I felt tired. The blood from my wound kept flowing. Damn it, how much blood did I have? I've been bleeding since last night and I'm still alive.
He closed his eyes groggily. Damn it, give me eternal sleep. That God of Sleep, lend me one of your sons and let me sleep soundly!
After being thrown to the ground by Baptiste, I heard the sound of bones breaking in my body again. What a tough life. I wonder how many intact bones there are in my skinny body. I choked on the soil in my mouth. I bent my body and couldn't resist the pain. I moaned," Damn it, can't you be gentler?”
"You're still sleeping when you're about to die. Should I admire your courage or say that you lack a nerve?”Barmendes sneered at me.
I crawled up half-dead and looked at him. The blood on my left chest froze. It seemed like the Onphalos Holy Stone was really there. Seeing that I was staring at his chest, Bapparis tore his robe.
I reflexively covered my eyes. The light was blinding, and the heat wave burned my body. Why didn't I feel anything earlier?
Barmendes leaned weakly against the colonnade behind him. Bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down his face as he glared at me." My plan was flawless. If it weren't for you, you, cough cough, cough-"
"Nothing is perfect, Baptiste. Give up struggling and return the Holy Stone to them. You don't need such power.”My condition wasn't much better either. The flesh on his chest had gradually become burnt, emitting the smell of rotten eggs. Sulfuric acid!
I looked at him in surprise. What was this thing? How much divine power did he use to bind it to his body?
Barmendes looked at me with a bitter smile and said,""I was going to take it off as soon as I arrived in Moldova, but it seems impossible now. It will burn me to ashes before you do anything. You, cough, can you tell me your name?”
I helped him sit on the ground and said," Don't talk so much. Think of a way to get this thing out. Are we really going to be burned to death? Where's the priest from before?"
Barmendes shook his head, his hands drooping weakly. He looked up at me and smiled." I'm so lucky to have met you. I feel like I've been hollowed out. Why do you understand me? She clearly looked so innocent. She was still just a child.”
That rock was really powerful. The skin around me was burning and making sizzling sounds. I was so anxious that I kept spinning around. I felt sad. I didn't want him to die. For some reason, I felt sorry for such a life form. I knelt beside him dejectedly and asked,"Where's that priest? Isn't he your accomplice? You still have the ability to summon him, right?”
Barmendes still shook his head. The charred flesh on his chest began to evaporate into steam. He looked around and said,"Look at this place. This is where I grew up. Over there, is the kitchen. My mother is the cook and can bake the most delicious bread in the world. She secretly stuffed oak and sunflower seeds into our mouths. My father is a tutor. You see, just across the street, he teaches the master's children music, painting, divination, and so on. I often see him and my mother looking at each other across the courtyard. At that time, we siblings had to play games with the master's children, carry his bag and musical instruments for him, and we had to wash the horses and wash the clothes. Those days were really peaceful. Cough cough, it's all in the past, it's in the past. I'll never be able to go back to my childhood, I'll never be able to find my happy days again, cough cough…"
I didn't try to help him anymore. I quietly looked at the abandoned courtyard in front of me. The stone walls were mottled, and the ruins were deep. There was a simple living room, bedroom, dining room, then a classroom, and a stable. It could be seen that the mistress had once loved to garden. Now, there were violets, sunflowers, roses, hyacinths, and cacti among the weeds.
When Apollo fell down in a panic, I didn't come back to my senses for a moment. I only saw his bloody clothes and golden hair wrapped around him like a demonic plant. He panted as he slowly stood up.
I didn't know where the strength came from, but the barely breathing Baptiste grabbed me. My body temperature had already exceeded the limits of the human body. It was terribly hot, and pieces of charred charcoal fell to the ground. However, the stone was fixed to my chest by some unknown method and never loosened.
"Apollo, don't move. He, he won't do anything to me. Look at him, don't-!”
Before I could finish my sentence, Apollo leaped into the air and pounced on Bamen. Bamen sneered coldly." You underestimate me!”
With a spin on the spot, I was once again caught under his armpit and flew up to the roof. Two of the pillars below were broken by Apollo's kick.
"Huhu, hei! Heavens, how naive! Hey, you still haven't told me your name.”Baptiste was a good man. He was about to die, yet he still cared about such matters. I glanced at him and said coldly,"I am Patroclus, comrade of Achilles.”
"Humph! No matter who you are, now, cough, in the future, you are, cough, mine!”Bardius smiled as he reached his hand into his chest. I was trapped in his embrace and couldn't move. I smelled the stench and felt nauseous. What was this? Why was it so smelly?
Barmendes laughed as he dug out the Onphalos Holy Stone. It was a semi-circular, egg-shaped, glowing object. It had been Zeus 'substitute before, and just like him, it did not have a physical body. It was very mysterious.
It was only after he grabbed it that I could see clearly that the blood vessels and nerves at the bottom of the Holy Stone were all over the place, firmly binding the stone. What was even more terrifying was that this thing was sucking Bapparis 'blood. No wonder I couldn't feel it at all. The Holy Stone had already become one with his body, connected to his flesh and blood.
Looking at that bloody monster-like thing was disgusting. I vomited several times, but I couldn't vomit. I glared at Barmendes." What do you want? If you want to die, don't drag me down with you. I still want to live."”
"You want to live? Why?" Bamen looked at me in confusion. I smiled and said,"Because there are still people I love and people I want to protect.”
Baptiste looked around for a moment, then said,"It's not good to be alive! Living is just pain!" The Holy Stone in his palm was glowing brightly, and he was about to break free from his control. He looked weaker and weaker, and suddenly, Baptiste looked at me with extreme happiness."I realized that I've fallen in love with you, so let's live forever together. Haha, they still can't defeat me!”
"Crazy! Let me go, I don't want to die!" I struggled hard, but I couldn't break free of his hand. Bardius looked at the Onphalos Holy Stone and muttered,""Please give me the strength to be reborn,
O Lord of Chaos who sees through life and death, make me immortal,
I will use my life to sign a contract with you, never to go back on my word!”As soon as he finished reciting, the Onfaros Stone exploded with golden light, and the sacred ballad sang throughout the universe.
"A child's sorrow is the tears of a river. The darkness that nurtures all things contains sin.
Curl into shape, my child,
Return to the mother's body, rise from the ashes,
You were the darling of darkness, the enemy of light,
Now, in the name of Chaos,
To give thee a bright name,
Phoenix!
Long-lived birds of the desert,
Spreading your beautiful wings,
Go find your own world!”
I was surrounded by the rolling heat waves. Broken words echoed in my ears. The unspeakable sadness and joy made my tears flow like a river. It was as if I was floating on an unbelievably warm river, quietly floating. It was as if I could obtain the peace and happiness of being in the mother's body.
Chaos, chaos gave birth to all things, and all things originated from chaos. Regeneration, annihilation, death, resurrection, and Chaos. There was no definition of death and life.
In the dazzling light, Apollo walked over and extended his hand to me. He smiled and said,""Come, follow me back and continue your rebirth.”
I was afraid. There was an unknown fate waiting for me there. A battle that had yet to begin, a war that had just begun. What should I do?
But there are lovers and friends waiting for me there. I'm not alone!
I put my hand into his warm palm and fell into his arms at ease. I looked up at his face, which was both real and fake. He looked at me sadly, and his petal-like lips were like withered flowers because of the sad tune. He looked at me and said,"I love you, but why don't you love me?”
I smiled and shook my head. I reached out to caress his fair face." Your Highness understands the meaning of true love. Don't force it. I like you very much and hope that you can be happy."”
Tears rolled down like pearls and flowed down my arm, wetting my blood-stained clothes. He smiled sadly and lowered his head to kiss my lips. I knew that this was the only time I couldn't refuse, because this was the most complete rejection. He wrapped my body and asked the hyacinths to send me a message. The cypress tree was the tune, and the laurel was the decoration. We hugged each other in the sky, flew, and finally landed.
Apollo let go of me, and the holy light around me spread out. With a clear whistle, its fiery red wings flapped open, and Bapparis transformed into a long-lived bird that flapped its wings and soared into the clouds, leaving behind a beautiful figure and legend.
"Patroclus!" Achilles rushed in. My body shook, but I didn't turn around. I smiled at Apollo. There was no room for him to stay here. He held the glowing holy stone in his hand and finally turned into a golden light that enveloped him and disappeared.
Achilles walked up to me and hugged me tightly from behind. Tired and trembling, he said,""I've been looking for you for a day and a night."
I looked up at the clear sky, flying feathers and falling flowers, and said softly and firmly,"Achilles, I love you."
Achilles turned me around and looked into my eyes seriously. I smiled and put my arms around his neck."I love you, so I want to accompany you for the rest of my life.”
A bone-piercing hug. Pierre once told me that even a hug would hurt a person in despair. Not anymore. I hold sunshine and warmth, hope and faith in my arms.
Fortunately, Apollo's kiss healed all the pain in my body. At this time, I hugged him wholeheartedly.
I smiled happily at him as he led Troilus and Polydorus into the courtyard.
The next moment, the smile froze on his face. I saw a golden light flash behind him. The arrow of the little love god, Ernos, pierced his heart from behind, but he didn't feel it.
Ernos flapped his golden-green wings and hovered in the air. He gave me a mischievous smile, drew his bow again, and aimed at Achilles and me.
My heart was in my throat. What a petty guy. He actually wanted to take revenge for not listening to his and Beauty Goddess's arrangements last night!
His icy gaze told me that no one dares to defy God's will. Anyone who disobeys will definitely be punished!
His smiling eyes were asking me what I should choose. Should I let my lover betray me, or should I choose to betray myself? Should I watch my lover suffer or would I rather have my heart broken?
I had no choice.
Once the golden arrow of love was shot, it could never be pulled out. The two people in love were entangled to death.
The moment the golden arrow shot out, I closed my eyes and turned around to block Achilles. The warm and sweet liquid seeped into my heart, and my other heart pounded. Was it a contract or a curse?
I don't know.
I just choose--
Even if it was betrayal-
It was also me who betrayed the world ~~~
I don't dare to experience that kind of pain and despair again ~
Please punish me for my cowardice!
I chose to betray because I was afraid of being hurt again ~~
I'm sorry, Achilles, just let me bear it alone!
I couldn't stop my tears from flowing. I looked at Achilles and smiled. I hugged him tightly, afraid of losing him. I whispered in his ear," I love you, Achilles. I love you. No matter what happens in the future, please remember what I said today. You must remember that I will only love you for the rest of my life!”Let me put on my disguise and put on a magnificent farce!
" Only today, only today, right now, is real. Achilles, believe me, you must believe me.”When I saw the arrow that Ernos had nocked with a lead arrowhead pointed at Achilles, I was in despair. It was a heartless arrow! Looking at him, I couldn't resist, couldn't escape. He sneered at us. I hugged Achilles 'head tightly and shook my head in horror." No, no, I beg you! Punishing me alone is enough!"
Achilles did not know what had happened and comforted me softly.
Ernos suddenly changed his mind. He took back the arrow and looked at us with a complicated expression for a long time. Then he flapped his wings and left.
I fell weakly into Achilles 'arms.
