Chapter 305 Freshmen
Let's go back a bit in time.
Two people survived the wrath of the Demon Lord just after the Great Serpent Maga left the ruins.
"Where am I?"
When Luo Yi opened his eyes, he was surprised to find that he was still alive. He clearly remembered that the Maga Serpent had destroyed the Spirit Knights and the entire land.
The last thing I saw was Maga the Serpent's menacing appearance with its claws outstretched, but where am I now? Where is Maga the Serpent?
"This place doesn't feel like the real world, nor like a dimensional rift; it's filled with a light and pure element."
As the starlight shimmered, Luo could reach out and grasp the light, its gentle warmth emanating from his hand.
Starlight drifted through Luo Yi's palm, but Luo Yi's palm seemed to have disappeared, and even his body had vanished. Luo Yi could no longer hear his own breathing or heartbeat.
It felt as if my whole being had been emptied out, weightless, floating in the air, no longer connected to anything in the world.
But Luo Yi felt an incomparably pleasant sense of belonging. He could be free and unrestrained in the surrounding starry sea, dancing with the stars and walking with the light, as if he had been born from one of the stars here.
"Hello, chosen child, welcome back."
Welcome back to Starry Sea.
A light, ethereal voice drifted from the void, and the stars gathered together to form a human figure. She felt very familiar to Luo Yi, as if he had seen her in a dream.
"You've never seen me like this before, that's alright. I can't even remember the last time I looked like this. Probably several hundred years, since the first hero left."
"And I will always remember you, my unfortunate child. God did not give you a complete life. Disaster and separation attacked you mercilessly after your birth. You lost too much: your home, your family, and even your own life."
As the voice from within the starlight spoke more and more, the memories became increasingly familiar to Luo Yi. Memories that had been blurred in the past surfaced. Luo Yi had once seen such a compassionate light before him when he was on the verge of death.
"But fate is balanced. Luck did not abandon you. Your parents were still bringing you warmth and care in the last moments of their lives."
"The unintentional intrusion of Mr. and Mrs. Luo awakened me from my slumber. Their love for you awakened my soul. Even under the threat of death, they still protected you with hope and strength."
“I have also met with their souls in the same way I am now, giving them the right to choose: to escape the suffering world and return to a normal life, or to be reborn and rewrite their lives.”
As Stardew spoke, she stretched out her hand and stardust conjured up the scene from that time: an infant in swaddling clothes, a fantastical monster, and a pair of selfless parents who gave everything for their child.
This was the first time Luo Yi had seen the faces of his biological parents. Although it was a figment of stardust, a bright white expanse with indistinct features, Luo Yi felt an uncanny familiarity with them. He could imagine their vivid expressions, their sincere eyes, and the words that had encouraged and warmed him time and time again.
How could I forget? It was a hymn written by my parents with the courage to fight against death, a song of praise for my life written by ordinary parents with the hope of protecting life.
Luo Yi gradually remembered what he had seen at that time.
"Mr. and Mrs. Luo have no desires or wants; they only want me to help that unfortunate child, and they are willing to give up anything for it."
“But it won’t work. The child was too young and didn’t have enough willpower to withstand the energy of life. I couldn’t save him.”
The Luo couple in the stardust pleaded desperately, kneeling on the ground and begging the god-like being before them. The whole process was only roughly imitated, but Luo Yi could clearly imagine the sorrowful words and actions at that time, those cries, and those words of never giving up.
I survived thanks to my parents' selflessness and great love.
"If you can't save your own child, what's the point of going back to the world where you lost your own flesh and blood? It's just going to experience a tragedy that's even more painful than death."
"These are the words they said to me back then. I have a bad memory and have forgotten the exact words, but I will never forget the love and dedication contained in those words."
"Because someone else said something similar to me."
Stardew has forgotten most of her past memories. Time has ravaged her body and eroded her memories. No one remembers her anymore, and she can't remember anyone else either.
But the love that one has personally experienced is something that will never be forgotten, and the sincere feelings when making vows can still warm the hearts of those who are suffering, even after countless years.
"My parents...sacrificed themselves to save me, right?"
"Yes, they are both great people. The Luos placed all their hopes for life on the future of their children."
Luo Yi and Xing Lu faced each other, just like when they first met.
Amidst the stardust, the phantom beast, moved by the love between the Luo couple, resolved to save the life before it. The Luo couple were willing to give up everything, only hoping that their child could be safe and sound.
Stardew infused the infant with her own soul dust, and life force flowed from the world into the infant, repairing and reshaping the child's complete life.
All the suffering in this process was borne by two ordinary yet extraordinary mortals.
The immense energy of life force is something that even a few monster lords can control. Stardew never dared to risk using the lives of humans who were still living a life of farming and tilling the land for experiments.
But the two of them endured it, and smiled as their own child cried for the first time after being reborn.
The souls of Mr. and Mrs. Luo dissipated, returning to the origin of the world along with their life force, but they had no regrets and were content.
Parents believe that their children will definitely live a wonderful life in the future.
The regretful yet beautiful memories come to an end, and Xinglu and Luo Yi get to know each other again.
Over the years, the outside world has undergone tremendous changes, and Xinglu and Luo Yi's futures have been subject to unexpected changes.
They all believed and were disappointed. Gaining power does not mean being lucky. Some people betray their original beliefs and wallow in depravity.
Both Xinglu and Luo Yi had been hurt, and the cycle of life and death was no longer new to them.
But fate is still balanced; the legendary hero truly reappeared, and every story surrounding him fascinated the two of them.
The hero is truly as resolute and kind as the legends say; he protects the world and cares for those around him.
Respect for life, reverence for death.
Every moment spent with the hero brought Luo Yi and Xinglu joy.
Luo Yi remembers everything that happened between him and the hero. Stardew shares Luo Yi's experiences and witnesses everything. The resonance between their souls makes them seem to merge into one.
Luo Yi and Xinglu can indeed become one; the brave warrior has already set an example for himself, and both Luo Yi and Xinglu are eagerly anticipating it.
Without words or responses, the two souls, bound together by a deep connection, already knew that they shared the same goal: to witness the end of this story.
"But before that, there's one more guy we need to deal with ourselves."
The soul space of the mythical beast appeared out of thin air, and Luo Yi once again stepped into this scarred yet miraculous world.
Among the ruins, a man walks with a disability, fantasizing about making a comeback and becoming the master of the world again.
“I will never forgive you, Muban.”
