The End Times as a Song

Chapter 29 Heart knot

now,

At the bottom of the Chifeng Abyss, darkness has swallowed up most of it.

It was a dark, dense mass, completely invisible.

Aside from the nearby area, you could see fire sprites and snow sprites fighting fiercely, their heads bleeding profusely.

The boy, however, remained silent, as if watching a play, and calmly picked up his wine glass and began to drink.

"Hey...you're really just going to ignore them and let them keep causing trouble...?"

Huan Rugo walked up to the boy in white, bent down, and waved the branch in her hand, offering a humble reminder.

The boy seemed neither offended nor angry. He glanced up at Huan Rugo, smiled contemptuously, and said two words.

"It's good... isn't it..."

After that, the boy fell silent.

"This person is so strange... He always speaks so sparingly, and I really don't know how to respond to what he says... I don't know what to say anymore."

Huan Rugo carefully examined him, pondering the young man.

Huan Rugo got up quietly, squatted down with her back to him, and picked up a drawing tool to draw on the sand, playing with it idly.

"It's pitch black all around, and it seems like I can't do anything..."

I've been watching the Pokémon fight for ages, it's just them throwing punches and kicks, and it goes on and on, it's so boring. I really don't know what to do to kill time.

That boy in white doesn't like to talk. If only Ah Yan were here. I wonder how Ah Yan is doing now….

The surroundings were deathly silent, without a sound. Huan Rugo dared not utter a sound and could only mutter to herself.

"boring……???"

The boy seemed to be able to see through Huan Ruge's thoughts.

The boy glanced at Huan Rugo and called out expressionlessly, "Huo'er..."

Upon hearing this, the two elves immediately stopped and knelt down with a thud.

"Master...we were wrong...we were wrong, please don't punish us..."

"The Dragon Beast...!"

"Okay... Master..."

The fire spirit understood immediately and rose to cast a spell. A fiery red, golden cage appeared on the ground, inside which was a wounded and dying Da Nian beast.

Seeing this, Huan Rugo ran over anxiously and said to the Da Nian beast through the cage:

"Little Beast, are you alright...? How did you get hurt so badly..."

The beast was covered in burns and was in very poor condition.

"Cough cough cough... It's my sister, I'm fine... You were arrested too."

Da Nian, the beast, coughed a few times, looking very weak and particularly listless.

"Yes, I'm fine, I'm okay, you don't need to worry..."

"I originally intended to rescue you while I was at it, but it seems I failed to save you; instead, I've ended up harming you..."

"Don't say that, they didn't hurt me...they don't seem like bad people..."

"If he's not a bad person, then why am I covered in injuries..."

Huan Rugo was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to comfort the Da Nian beast. They had not harmed Huan Rugo, but they had indeed seriously injured the Da Nian beast and captured Da Nian beast Yuan and her brother.

Huan Rugo, emboldened by some unknown source, actually turned around, stood up, and asked the boy:

"Why did you hurt her like this...! Even if you wanted to capture her, there was no need for that...!"

Huan Ruge's eyes were filled with tears.

"When girls fight, they're bound to get hurt. Where did you come from? Why are you meddling in other people's business..."

The fire sprite crossed its arms in front of its chest and said confidently.

"I...I just felt it wasn't necessary...I..."

Huan Rugo was meek and submissive, and her explanation seemed so weak.

"You, what...? You don't seem to have the right to speak... Whether it's necessary or not isn't up to you. The Da Nian Beast is so badly injured. Isn't that what the Da Nian Beast brought on itself? If it had just surrendered obediently from the beginning and hadn't resisted, it wouldn't have gotten hurt. It knew it couldn't win but still insisted on fighting back."

"Sister, thank you... but you don't need to reason with these bad people for my sake..."

The dragon beast's eyes were resolute, and it tried to calmly reassure Huan Ruge.

"Could you heal the little beast's wounds just like you did for me earlier...?"

Huan Rugo took a deep breath and mustered her courage to speak.

"Sister...don't beg them...it's useless..."

The dragon-like beast roared defiantly...

"You brat, don't you understand the situation? You've gone a bit too far... My master saw that you're a weak human and don't know how to heal, so he healed your wounds. How dare you take advantage of that..."

The snow elf stood up to defend her master and scolded Huanruge.

"It's her..."

He spoke, as if rejecting Huan Rugo but also as if not rejecting her, and called out again.

"fire……"

"That seems to make sense. I'm the one who's been arrested, so what right do I have to speak? Good luck to me."

A ripple stirred deep within Huan Ruge's heart.

"Yes Master……"

The fire spirit rummaged through its own body and tossed a bottle of medicine to Huanruge:

"Here you go, brat, this is medicine specifically for burns... Don't worry! Da Nian Beast is a celestial beast after all, it's tough, it won't die."

"But……"

Just as Huan Ruge was about to say something, the fire spirit forcibly interrupted her.

"Don't push your luck. The Da Nian beast can run away even after it's been cured. I finally managed to catch it, and I don't want it to escape again so I'll have to go and catch it again..."

The implication was clear: stop causing her trouble; she had already done more than enough.

"Healing the wounds is the priority, little beast..."

Huan Ruge spoke softly to the Da Nian beast.

"Sister, I'm fine...you don't need to..."

The beast of the year is still acting impulsively and pretending to be reserved.

"Listen to me... heal your wounds, then we'll have a chance to escape..."

Huan Rugo looked around. They were all busy with their own things and hadn't noticed her at all. She lowered her voice and whispered something.

"Um... okay, thank you, sister..."

These words ignited hope in Da Nian, and she excitedly said to Huan Rugo:

"Sister, my feeling was right...you really are a good person..."

"The medicine is applied, little beast. You should rest well... Get well soon so you can get back to your own things."
