Encyclopedia of Feanor Continent

After Evandel left, Palos sat there in frustration, and the demons who passed through the portal spontaneously gathered around him, but he turned a blind eye to them.

In the impression of many demons, the demon king Idaris should have such a deep, steady and unsmiling appearance. No one noticed the pain and depression under his silent appearance, and Palos did not want to arouse others' attention. Notice.

People are immersed in the joy of the rest of their lives. Although the crisis has not really passed, people in both worlds are watching the situation getting worse day by day, and it is the first time that things are starting to develop in a good direction. Although the scene was hectic, there was a vibrant atmosphere.

Only Palos sat stiffly in a daze, and many noisy voices came to his ears, which he turned a deaf ear to, until the conversation between two human soldiers somehow caught his attention.

Those were two guards on duty at the edge of the temporary camp of the demons, and one of the young guards said: "Blessed by the God of Light, if I can survive this time, I must go back and propose to Emily, you know, Last time she gave me a bouquet of purple dragon's blood flowers. I was so stupid that I didn't know what it meant, so I just accepted it as an ordinary gift. Since then, she didn't pay much attention to me. I still think women are so kind Later, when I knew the meaning of the purple dragon's blood flower, I regretted it so much that I really wanted to go back and give myself a punch."

The older guard laughed and said, "Aha! This can be messed up, I bet she won't forgive you."

"Hey, is this the time to gloat?"

The two were about to play around at their posts, but when they turned around, they saw the King of the Demon Race standing behind them and looking at them sullenly.

"My, my lord..." Even though the Demon King is not their boss, the two couldn't help becoming nervous.

"Send the purple dragon's blood flower... what does it mean?" Palos's voice was low, and now that he was not in a good mood, his tone made people flustered.

The young guard stammered, "No, no, nothing..."

"I just want to know what this means." Palos frowned, trying to suppress the irritability in his heart, "Please tell me."

The older guard was more prudent, and answered for him: "Uh...it's like this, there is a custom here, if you have a crush on someone and you are too embarrassed to confess, you can send him a bouquet of purple dragon's blood flowers, If the other party is also interested, give back a bouquet of red dragon's blood flowers, if not, just pretend that you don't know this custom, so that both parties will not be too embarrassed."

They thought it was the demon king from another world who suddenly became interested in the customs of Feanor Continent, but after hearing these words, Palos looked as if he had received some serious blow, and even turned around and walked away a little staggeringly. .

The word "Purple Dragon's Blood Flower" is like a key, which opens a secret door to a certain memory, allowing some deeply hidden memories to suddenly emerge like a flood.

It's strange, according to his previous personality, he shouldn't take such small things to heart, but I don't know why he remembers this thing so clearly, and even after more than 200 years, he can still recall most of it. detail.

More than 200 years ago, it has been the third year since "Idaris" began to approach the boy Evandel, just as he planned, and they became good friends.

He often used his vacation to help Avandel bring some things that were not in the tower. Once, Avandel asked him for the seeds of the dragon's blood flower.

Many mage apprentices would plant some herbal materials on the balcony, but he remembered that the dragon's blood flower didn't seem to be of any use.He didn't ask why. Whether it was useful or not was not something he needed to consider. His goal was to gain Avondel's trust, and buying a bag of seeds was just a small request that was easy to complete.

For several months after that, Avondel carefully took care of the useless plants until they bloomed into a large area on the balcony, and then the mage apprentice picked out some purple ones and tied them in a bundle with ribbons and gave them to him.

He didn't know the meaning of the bouquet of flowers at all, just thanked him as usual, and then told Evandel: "It will be your birthday in a few days, and I have a special gift for you."

He couldn't remember Evandel's reaction anymore, because he didn't pay attention that much at the time, and only vaguely remembered that the other party should be very happy.

Then on Evandel's 16th birthday...

Palos closed his eyes in pain, recalling these irreversible pasts was tantamount to mental torture for him.

It turned out that Evandel had liked him since such an early age, and he could even be regarded as the mage's first love.

But how did he respond to this intention at the time?

He tied the innocent mage apprentice to a frame, and he would not be moved by the other party's begging or cursing. He mercilessly cut off the other party's tendons, almost drained the blood from Avondel's body, and almost killed Avondell. tortured to death.

And now, because Avondel had slept with him in a daze when he was suffering from insomnia and anxiety, so that his self-control was extremely poor, he felt that there was still hope for their relationship to be reconciled.

I also don't think about what he did, Avondel didn't tear his bones apart, it was already considered as benevolent, so what qualifications does he have to ask for Avondel's forgiveness?

Now the more he thinks about the old things, the more he hates his past style of doing things in order to achieve his goals by any means. What he wanted most was once at his fingertips, and he stepped on the ground and crushed the sincerity that he carefully handed over. Now No matter how much he regrets, suffers, or even breaks his heart, it will not be able to erase the harm he has caused.

While the people around were all excited because they had successfully come to Feanor's world, or because they saw the hope of the light reappearing, Palos silently clutched the clothes on his chest in extreme despair and remorse.

A few hours later, Alfred also passed through the portal.

He is one of the few people who knows something about the current Demon King, and he also found that Palos's mood is very wrong: "Your Majesty the Demon King, what's wrong with you?"

"I'm fine." Palos said blankly.

"But you look very bad." Alfred said worriedly, "Now that the crisis has not passed, you need to keep in good condition at all times. If there is any place where your subordinates can share your worries..."

Probably Alfred would not give up until he asked something, Palos said helplessly: "I'm really fine, it's just that I had a dispute with Avondel."

He doesn't want to say more, and he doesn't expect his subordinates to understand his pain. These demons live in an extremely bad environment and have been facing huge pressure to survive. Let alone life and death, death is common, so they won't If you take feelings too seriously, you won't understand the heartache and regret of one person for the suffering that another person has suffered.

Sure enough, Alfred breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that it was a relationship issue: "As long as you both survive, there will still be time to seek reconciliation."

"Yeah, there's still plenty of time..." Palos said dejectedly.

The lifespan of the demons is longer than that of the elves, which means that he has plenty of time to suffer in endless regret and pain. He will spend the long years in vain recalling the kindness that Evandel once treated him. Every night when I can't fall asleep, I toss and turn to recall the short and intense happiness in my life.

The most painful thing is never not having it, but losing it after having it.

Alfred was still reporting the progress of the situation to him, and Palos forced himself not to think about things that could not be changed for the time being, and focused on the immediate crisis.

Alfred said: "The portal can't pass too many people at one time. It will take about two days for everyone to come in batches, and then we will destroy the portal. After that, the sun will be in the sky soon." Reproduce, you need to communicate well with human beings, and inform the various races of Fenuo Continent as much as possible, try to stay indoors these days, and do not look up to the sky, because the strong light at the moment of the explosion is likely to blind people's eyes Blind, the weather will be extremely hot for a while, and it will slowly return to normal after a while."

Palos always felt that there was something wrong with this step: "Wait a minute, you mean to destroy the portal first, and then Titan World will be ignited?"

"Yes, that must be the case, otherwise the flames generated when the Titan world is ignited will erupt into the Feanor world through the portal, turning this side into a sea of ​​flames in purgatory."

"But if the portal is destroyed, how will Leicia and the others come here?"

"You... don't you know?" Alfred looked at him in surprise, for a moment he didn't know how to tell him the news.

"Know what?" Palos looked confused.

"They can't come back... that magic is extraordinary, and it has to be at the cost of the caster's life."

"...You mean, Recia...will die?" Palos was caught off guard by the news. Most of the demons were strangers to him now, only Alfred and Recia , they are not only his staunch supporters, but also one of the few old people he can vaguely remember. In his heart, the two of them are not only ordinary subordinates, but also his friends and trustworthy people in the Demon Race. people.

But they didn't even have time to get acquainted with each other again, Leicia was about to die, there was also the God of Light Cassandelle, Elder Sun who disliked him anyway, and two protoss archmages he didn't know, five Titan worlds The best spellcaster will give his only life to bring light to the world of Feanor, and he knows nothing about it.

Palos was a little hard to accept for a while: "...Why has no one ever told me?"

"Lecia teaches you every day, we all thought you already knew it, maybe she forgot to say it, maybe she didn't want to tell you..."

The next words Alfred felt a little hard to say. He could almost imagine that with the character of His Majesty the Demon King, he would feel even more uncomfortable hearing these words, but he still had to let Palos know and be mentally prepared. Better than being caught off guard: "The demon bosses have discovered our plan and are now storming Castle Twilight at all costs. The soldiers will stay until the end, but even after the portal is closed, we still need A small number of volunteers are left to guard the final line of defense until the magic is completed... So, after the things here are arranged, I will also return to Titan World and lead the remaining soldiers to protect them."
