【Sremiku】The Gate of Light

Not long after Micurio left, Sorey woke up from a vortex of pain.The original slack focus was gradually aligned, and after seeing the crowd in front of him clearly, his pupils shrank suddenly and his eyes widened.He was surrounded by concerned greetings from his companions from the Celestial Clan, and the pain in the back of his neck had disappeared.He didn't see Micurio who was supposed to be by his side beside the bed, he scanned the room back and forth without much search. "Where's Micurio?" he asked, and the seething crowd suddenly fell silent, and he saw everyone bow their heads.The anomaly in front of him deepened his worries, so Sorey stood up from the bed and went straight to Laila who was standing outside the crowd. "Where did Micurio go?" He grabbed Laila's wrist, and the hoarse voice sounded in the room, empty.

Her eyes, her breathing, and her words were filled with ripples of unspeakable sadness. "Sore, what would you do if I told you to forget about Mikulio?"

"How could it be possible to forget, Laila, stop joking, where is Micurio?" Sorey's voice sounded very serious, and he didn't take Laila's words as a joke at all.

"Srey," her words suddenly became gentle: "Let's talk about this matter tomorrow, or later, okay?"

"what?"

"I think Micurio doesn't want to be disturbed right now, he..." Lila's words were interrupted by the screeching sound of metal rubbing against each other, and Sorey saw the guardian standing outside the door cleaning his pipe .Seeing the eyes of the whole room focused on him, the old village chief re-lit his pipe, and just about to hand a few brand new shredded tobaccos to Shi Lei, but he politely refused.The village chief didn't show disappointment, he just leaned against the door frame and smoked, the burnt aroma of tobacco spread in the air.

"I haven't smoked for a long time, it's really uncomfortable to smoke a few times, ahem." The old village chief coughed twice and knocked the ash on the stairs.

"that……"

"He's gone to Camran." No one spoke after that, the silence spread like a weapon, and the smell of tobacco filled the whole room.Sorey didn't even say hello, took out a ball of fabric from the luggage scattered all over the floor, and rushed towards the Kamran Temple without hesitation, as if saying goodbye would delay countless years.So he just faded out of everyone's sight, and headed towards his fate without looking back.

"Is it okay to tell him?" Laila didn't stop Shi Lei's impatient footsteps, but just watched his back until he disappeared completely.

"Do you think it's useful to hide it from him? So Lei is not stupid and will realize it sooner or later. This is a test that the two of them must face, and no one can stop it."

When the sun was setting, Shi Lei saw that the entire forest was burning, dust and cold air were splashed on the ground, and yellow sand splashed on his trouser legs, but he didn't care.He ran as fast as a young goat, leaped through the bushes half the height of his man, and stepped on several heather flowers quietly blooming on the side of the road.The air dozed in the shadows, and the fish swimming in the sleepless songs of the passing streams.The world in front of me is so bright and beautiful, like the beginning of a splendid story.Sorey didn't stop because of these beauties, the wind whistled past his ears, and the sharp branches scratched his cheeks couldn't stop his pace.The touch and pain are leaving him, and the body seems to be just an empty shell restricting him. At this moment, he is like a shooting star abandoned at the end of the sky, breaking through all obstacles and rushing towards his destination.

In front of Sorey's eyes, the days he and Micurio spent hand in hand were played automatically like a revolving lantern. The pictures were full of fragmentary, uninteresting, and incomparably trivial daily chores, all of which were the most ordinary pictures and scenes.And it was these monotonous pictures behind So Lei that kept urging his pace, and he could only bear the spur with a wry smile while running wildly, making his pace a little faster.The heavy sunset came over his face, covered his eyelids, covered his fingers, and finally merged with Sorey and turned into a burning fireball.

Then, on the hillside full of purple eagletail flowers, Shi Lei saw the temple surrounded by the afterglow of Yinhong, a young indigo dragon stood against the light on the edge of the cliff, his head held high, and his throat let out a gurgling cry.So Lei was stunned by the sight in front of him, and the surrounding air was filled with filth. He knew that the dragon was the embodiment of his beloved. So Lei's back broke out in cold sweat from the shock, but he still couldn't help but marvel at the beautiful dragon in front of him. The miracle sighed.

"Micurio!" He finally stopped at the foot of the mountain, raised his head and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Hey! Can you hear me!" He called out to the golden temple in the distance, waving his powerful sword arm.The twilight in front of him was as bright as gold, and every ray of light and every cloud seemed to be answering his call, but there was not a roar to answer.So he simply sat down, sitting on this land less than a few square meters, waiting for the golden dusk to sink, waiting for the voice from dozens of meters away.

The dragon-shaped Micurio did not attack him, but turned sideways, his amethyst-like pupils shone with eternal tenderness, as if responding to Sorey's call.The cool autumn wind blew across his cheeks, blowing the short hair on his forehead all the way, making a flower bloom from the corner of Sorey's smiling mouth.He still remembers me, even with demonization.He secretly recited happily in the bottom of his heart.The dragon's eyes quickly diverged from Solei's and looked in another direction, and before Solei stepped forward to meet him, he raised his wings and swooped towards him.

Even the young dragon's strength should not be underestimated. The strong dragon wings supported Shi Lei's body and lifted him into the air, while the cold scales rested on his stomach, causing pain.After flying in the sky for a while, Micurio shook his wings, and threw Sorey, who was hanging on his scales, onto a lush maple tree, his body fell into the leaves and made a rustling sound.

"Micurio, what are you doing!" Sorey jumped down from the tree, stamped his feet to shake off the leaves hanging on his body, and shouted loudly to the dragon in the sky.Micurio ignored his protest, he just turned his body and let his eyes look in the direction of the ground.

"Do you want me to go back?" Long nodded. "Don't make trouble, you have to go back with me!" He stood on tiptoe and stretched out his hand desperately to the sky, but he couldn't even reach the tip of Micurio's tail.

Shi Lei didn't back down: "Let's go home together, okay?" Shrei Si called out with all his strength, and what responded to him was a roar with a sharp wind.Thousands of transparent birds were blowing in the dry air. Sorey narrowed his eyes and watched Micurio's every move. He saw him flapping his young wings and flying towards the direction of the temple.

Seeing that Micurio was about to fly out of his sight, Sorey rushed into the forest through the narrow path and rushed up to the cliff where the temple is located. Panting heavily, he stepped in front of Micurio in advance.

"Now there are only two of us left." So Lei raised his hands solemnly, shaking off the white cloth brought out from the hut.Although the neat teacher's cloak has turned yellow under the erosion of the years, like the pages of old books, the ancient blue lines on the back skirt are still swaying in the autumn wind like many years ago, as if telling an inconspicuous story in the long river of history s story.Sorey draped his coat over his shoulders, and when he lowered his head, he noticed a strange stain and wrinkle on his chest. "Here, you have to wash it for me later." He smiled and squeezed the stain tightly with his palm as if he had made a silent decision.

"Don't cry if it hurts later." The wind on the cliff was obviously blowing harder, and the white cloak was stretched out behind him, as if he would take Shi Lei to the sky at any moment.He drew out the ceremonial sword at his waist, his chest heaving up and down: "Come on, Micurio, it's my turn to wake you up this time!" He didn't speak any more, and he didn't lower his head, looking straight at the young dragon in the air , as if his sight could pierce the hard and thick scales and reach Micurio's heart.At this moment, Sorey didn't need anything other than the blue-violet sunset glow falling on his body.

Facing the almost disappearing sunset, he ran desperately to the destination of his soul.Micurio also bent down, holding his breath and waiting for his return and appearance.Solei took a big step forward firmly, raised the ceremonial sword above his head and slashed at the dragon wing that was rushing towards him obliquely. When the blade was about to touch the scales, he hesitated for a moment, but he missed it. Micurio was dexterous. evaded his attack.

"It's estimated that you will lose badly if you release the water. Really Micurio, you should show some mercy." He quickly turned around and lowered his center of gravity to rush under Micurio's body. Raising his arm from bottom to top, the blade hit Micurio's neck, but was bounced back by steel-like scales.Micurio, who had been motionless all this time, took advantage of the gap between Sorey's attack and turned around suddenly, and the dragon's tail like a staff swept his legs.Sorey rolled twice on the ground and stood up after dodging the raindrops. He rushed to the edge of the broken wall and tore off a few tattered clods of soil. Throw away.The raised fine dust penetrated into Micurio's purple pupils, he bowed his head in pain and let out a low growl, Sorey took advantage of the stones on the ground to jump into the air, raised his leg and kicked the dragon's head from a height.

"Enough is enough for Micurio! It's not too late, hurry up and get back to your senses!" No one answered.Sorey dodged somersaults to avoid the sharp claws, trying to find a way to end the fight without hurting his lover.

"Give up, Sorey." Maotras's voice suddenly sounded in his mind: "This kid from the Celestial Clan tried his best not to let you come back to me, so go back with gratitude."

"Stop joking! After all, isn't it all due to your bad idea!" Shi Lei shouted at nothingness.

"Hey, do you blame me for letting you come back for so long? I wanted to give you some advice to purify this child. Since you don't appreciate it, forget it."

A man who can bend and stretch, he apologized quickly in order to help Mikurio Sorey. "Okay, I'm wrong, you should tell me quickly!"

"To put it simply, the kid from the Celestial Clan feels that you have been wronged by my side for hundreds of years, and wants to take your place to complete the rest of the purification. Is it true that I am such a bad person? Shi Lei, you have judged me for so many years Have I ever bullied you!"

"Is that so, he actually thought so much..." He ignored Maotras' complaints, and his hand holding the sword dropped.He has always thought and firmly believed that the relationship between himself and Micurio is equal, at least hundreds of years ago.Whether Micurio was in a good mood or thinking during the past few hundred years, Sorey had no idea. At this moment, Sorey suddenly realized that the countless ages between them had erected a building between them that was almost Impassable walls.

Just as he was meditating, Micurio raised his wings and hit Sorey on the back with a firm palm.There was a sweetness in the throat, and a few drops of blood flowed down the corner of Sorey's lips.Sorey's vision was shrouded in hazy water mist, so that he could hardly see Micurio's figure. Tears wrapped in blood drops pattered on the mentor's cloak, spreading to the stain on his chest.

"Micurio, you are wrong." He threw down the ceremonial sword and met Micurio's eyes.Wipe off the blood stains from the corner of his mouth with his right hand, his left hand hangs by his side, the figurative light blue gas gathers in his clenched fist, a huge male lion majestically wraps around his arm, its thick and dense mane roars, its snow-white tusks The teeth also seemed to have a strong fishy smell, as if they would tear all the enemies in front of them to pieces in the next second.When Micurio rushed in front of him, he raised his hand and poured all his strength into his left hand to hit the dragon's soft belly.

"Although it is painful to be separated from everyone, and it is lonely to sleep alone, I have never regretted my choice, and I have never felt that my fate is unfair compared with others." Micurio's His body twisted in pain, and the filth around him gradually dissipated, revealing his human form.He knelt on the ground, grabbed the hand of his lover who had returned to his original form, and embraced him in his arms.Their embrace seemed to hate the air, as if they wanted to rub each other into their ribs and never separate. "Abandoned by time, it is not a burden to purify the earth for hundreds of years, because this is not our ideal Micurio?" He stroked Micurio's messy white hair and whispered in his ear .

"You're such an idiot, Micurio..." He gritted his teeth and forced himself to look like he was smiling.But Micurio still seemed to have no expression as usual, his eyes were wide open, and his face was as pale as the sky before the storm.

"This time has nothing to do with saving the world, please let me be your only mentor."

Shi Leiben didn't want to cry before parting.But the disobedient lacrimal gland kept secreting clear and translucent water droplets, and the tears ran down the cheeks hotly, leaving behind a cold water mark.Like a child, he wiped away the tears that blurred his vision with his cuff, and he squeezed Micurio's shallow shoulders, trying to keep his eyes open all the while trying to see his dear one more.Micurio looked at his back vigorously, without even realizing that tears were streaming down his face.

"Micurio, I like you, more than anyone else. I like you more than this world."

"Well, I know, I know. So, stop crying."

"You just don't cry, your eyes are going to be swollen."

Micurio murmured some words that were choked up, then he seemed to give up all his fears and worries, grabbed Sorey's collar and kissed him deeply.Before night fell, he finally mustered up the courage to send a salty kiss to the hero in this world who only belonged to him.

"Does it hurt where you hit it just now?" He rubbed Micurio's injured abdomen.

"Who do you think I am? How can something happen to such a small injury, and you absolutely let go of the water just now, you are so naive, Sorey!" Mikulio lay on Sorey's shoulder and couldn't hold back his smile anymore. Holding Sorey's shoulders tightly, kisses were scattered all over his forehead, the corners of his eyes, and the tip of his nose.

"Hey, are you two making out enough?"

The voice of Maotras came from the air, and the head of the five willful gods yawned and emerged from the wreckage of the battle.Shi Lei glared at him fiercely: "You really are still bullying Micurio! And you put me back on the ground and deliberately wiped out the prank about such an important issue as the soul!"

"It was just a perfect accident," God said. "I've always loved surprises as much as I love pranks. Basically I enjoy it no matter who it comes from or what it's for." His voice was neither soft nor heavy But full of majesty: "But I swear with my conscience that this time it was an accident. It's not too much to have an accident when the Sky Ring Art you used is still under development, right? I don't deny the matter of bullying the little ghosts of the Celestial Clan, but if Wouldn't it be worse if I took his request seriously and let him sleep instead of you?"

After listening to it, Shi Lei felt that what he said was somewhat reasonable, so he clicked his tongue.

"Teacher, after what you've seen and heard during this period, tell me your answer now." Maotras shook his dragon beard, and his tone became serious.Sorey sighed and had no choice but to let go of Micurio's shoulders, standing on the ground like the brown rock standing under his feet.He raised his head and saw anticipation shining deep in the eyes of the gods.

"I choose to become a Celestial Clan." His tone was firm, and Micurio, who was standing beside him, was full of astonishment. "But the choice I made was not for the world, nor for you." Sorey said, his voice echoing in the almost faded olive twilight: "I know you don't really need my help anymore, but I I want to go back, get back the piece of soul that I lost, and then return to this land with a complete posture."

"Then you can do it even if you don't reincarnate. I can spit out that bit of soul and give it back to you right now."

"No, I want to become a Celestial Clan, and then live with Micurio in a nearly infinite time." Before he finished speaking, Shi Lei shrugged with a smile: "After all, he is a rare impulsive fool Celestial Clan, it is too embarrassing for him to live alone on this continent."

"If you reincarnate as a Celestial Clan, you may lose your memory of this Water Celestial Clan. Is that okay? But if you don't remember it, you can just become my servant of the Celestial Clan. I don't mind picking up the leak." He excitedly He flicked his tail.

"Didn't you say that amnesia is a compliment to us?" So Lei ignored him, but continued talking on his own.

"Yeah, so that the mentors can let go of the burden of the human period and get a real rebirth with a new attitude. After all, after being reborn, it means that they will have no intersection with their relatives and friends of humans."

"Then I don't want this reward." Sorey took a deep breath, and held Micurio's palm tightly. "I am willing to bear all the memories from birth to the present. And as the price of preserving the memory, I am also willing to bear the share of others, just as helping you share the memory of the earth."

"Oh, this is really an unexpected answer." Shenlong smiled with interest: "But do you know the meaning of this? You may need to spend hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even longer for such a huge memory. Time to return things to their original owners, are you sure you can bear it alone?"

"Who said he was responsible for it alone." Micurio took a step forward. This was the first time he faced God's eyes. The warmth from his palm filled him with strength: "Even if it takes a lifetime I will also embark on this journey with Sorey in those days."

"Micurio..." In Sorei's eyes, that thin figure looked so weak, yet so powerful and tenacious.

Micurio's white eyes were clearly visible behind his messy hair. "That's for sure. If you say you want to travel alone, I will strangle you to death, and execute it immediately."

Love gave him courage and hope again, allowing Micurio and Sorey to rekindle the belief in struggle and persistence, and despair and abandonment were erased from their dictionary forever.

Maotras was not angry, but laughed instead.In the giant dragon posture, he stepped back a little, and the strong sense of oppression disappeared from the two of them.But the two couldn't be happy because of this, So Lei adjusted his breath and stared at each other, he knew that the matter was not over yet. "Courage is commendable." He said, "I hope you, Solei, will not regret this choice in the future."

"There is nothing worth regretting." Sorey proudly raised his and Micurio's interlocking palms, and said with a smile, "Having this is enough."

Maotras laughed loudly, and the dragon's deep laughter echoed in the empty temple for a long time. After laughing enough, every dragon scale on his body burst out with even more dazzling light, so that the two of them had to close their eyes.

"Go, Sorey." After the white light faded, a closed door appeared in front of the two of them. "Prove your determination to the world, after all reincarnation is not an easy task."

Sorey let go of Micurio's hand, and with his last bit of strength, he threw himself on the huge door of light and made a loud noise.Micurio raised his head slightly, but it wasn't facing Sorey, but was staring at the glowing gate together with him.At some point, a group of big pale golden butterflies flew in through the crack of the door, fluttering towards Micurio.

People in love are always so inseparable, when Sorey hugged Micurio in his arms again, Micurio gently grabbed his shirt collar with his hand, but didn't say any words to hold back.Under the blinding light, they finished the last long and breathless kiss before the next meeting.

"Shall we see you again, Sorey?"

"Will do."

"When will I see you? You're always late..."

"No, Micurio, absolutely not this time. I promise you that we will see each other soon. I promise you that we will meet again in the near future, I swear by this vast expanse of stars in the sky. "

This is just the beginning of a new journey, just as Micurio finally reunited with him after being alone for a hundred years, and Sorey is about to set off to find a future with him.Pushing open the door, overflowing endless light enveloped Sorey's body.Micurio was no longer afraid or sad, he looked straight at Sorey's body covered in white light and let things go as they should, just like Sorey said, they will meet again no matter what, no one can Shake the fact that they are in love.

The important thing is that there is only the soul that pursues love and freedom from beginning to end.

Pursue, and always transcend the cold reality that stands in the way of happiness.

Over it, over it, over it.

We will definitely get over it.

As long as souls trust each other, there will always be a door to a future that walks hand in hand with you.

Have an ice trip, my dear.
