Azeroth Trail of Light

Vol 7 Chapter 40: .pride and Prejudice

"Pretending to be humble is the most hypocritical manifestation. It may be the beginning of slanderous rhetoric, or it may be a roundabout self-praise..."

"Dick" in a blue robe sat lazily on the black-infected Titan Seal Box, with a smile at the corner of his mouth, not distorted or hideous, just like sitting on his own throne He stretched out a finger and slid in the air, always letting people’s eyes move with his fingers, crossed his hands, propped up his chin, and leaned forward.

"Then tell me, Dick, are you a real villain or a disgusting hypocrite?"

This reckless posture made Dick, who was standing opposite him, a little surprised, not because he was frightened by this arrogant illusion, but because the shaman was the most direct way to embody his inner self. If this guy behaved like this, That means that Dick’s heart is probably also this image...

But the problem is that Dick never knew that he still had such a wanton side in his heart, but that didn’t mean he gave up. In fact, in this hall where he was alone, when the other party had finished speaking, he would I know, it's time to speak by myself.

Dick took a step back, leaning back, and the brilliant light staggered and folded behind him repeatedly, and finally formed a golden chair that took over his body. After he was promoted to the hero, the control of energy entered again. To a new level, this kind of operation is no longer unattainable.

His hands were relaxed on the armrests of the golden chair, under the bamboo mask, his expression was not clear, but there was already a trace of nostalgia in his voice, and he responded with another sentence.

"Prejudice makes you unable to accept me, arrogance makes me unable to "love" you... It's ironic."

"Jane Austen, "Pride and Prejudice" is really nostalgic. I thought I had forgotten it, but I didn't expect it. I still remember... But are you sure you want to use this sentence as the beginning of the conversation? You and I know very well. You can mock me wantonly, but you will never be me. You are just an arrogant illusion in my mind, nothing more."

"Actually, I don't think so."

The blue "Dick" stretched his shoulders, he snapped his fingers, and a cigarette that Dick missed so much appeared on his fingertips, and was lit by a faint blue flame, and then the familiar let One can't help but the smoke of memories enveloped,

"I have been with you, Dalong County, Northern Frontiers, Black Rock Mountain, Silithus... As you save the world again and again, I have been growing. When everyone praises you, when every How about when a person calls you a hero? It feels good, little guy...Have you ever thought that one day you will become such a guy?"

Landick pulled out a mocking smile, and he waved his hand sharply.

"A single command can cause countless people to shed blood, a single sentence can cause a war, even a disgusting look, there will be a minion to clean up the dazzling scum for you, ah, Dick...Look Yourself, you are a big man, but why don't you laugh?"

Facing Landick’s mockery, Dick pursed his lips.

"I don't laugh because there is nothing worth laughing at. Don't take it out of context. You and I know that I won't do that, and I can't do that."

"Hahaha, I have a tiger in my heart, sniff the rose...you are so innocent, and innocence makes me a little pity."

Ran Dick’s figure flashed and appeared behind Dick. He wrapped his hands around Dick’s shoulders like a lover. He whispered softly in his ear, but said vicious words like venom.

"I am in your heart, I know everything about you... You don’t laugh because you are unhappy, you are unhappy because you can’t fall in love with others, look at you, do you really like Jaina? You really like that Women who are willing to give everything for you? No, you don’t like it. You can abide by the etiquette in the face of Sylvanas, not because you don’t like them, nor because you don’t have the impulse, you can’t really fall in love with them, yes. ?"

Ran Dick’s voice pierced Dick’s deepest thoughts like a needle.

"After all, in your eyes, they are just a bunch of data... even if you can touch them, even if you can smell the fragrance, even if you can hug them, but you always think they are fake, you think all of them are fake, You live in the lies of yourself, you poor worm!"

"You think you should fall in love with them, you pretend to fall in love with them, but you are resisting that emotion... you are afraid that you will get lost!"

"In the deepest spiritual fog, you still think you are an earthling, don't you? Even if you are wearing the costume of Azeroth, even if you become a Paladin, even if you accept all this, you never thought about it before accepting it. Everything, but... you don’t think you belong to this world."

The corners of Dick's mouth moved slightly, he wanted to refute, but he couldn't speak in the end.

"Hahaha! Look at you, never really embraced everything about yourself. Every time the voice in your head sounds, it reminds you that you are different from others, and it reminds you that you are a freak! You are a freak! Monster! You don’t belong here, look at you, one cannot go back to his hometown, but cannot accept the new world. He can only hide in a hypocritical rift and pretend to be a hero, then my hero... Tell me what you want ?"

Ran Dick’s figure disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Dick. He put his hands in his pockets, bent down, and looked at Dick in a condescending posture. His eyes were cold and mocking.

"You want to refute me, I know, then, refute me, tell me that you really love them, and then tell me, speak out your pursuit, your ideals, and say what you want?"

Landick grabbed Dick’s shoulder, shook it, and his voice became sharp.

"Say it! Speak it out, tell me, what is in your empty heart? What do you want? Tell me!"

"enough!"

Dick opened Landick’s hand, "Enough! I...I..."

"Ok?"

Landick did not get angry because of Dick’s excitement. On the contrary, he looked sideways and listened, as if he really wanted to hear Dick’s answer, but after 10 seconds, there was no response, no answer, and silence was full. This space.

"So, what I said is correct?"

Landick’s shadow disappeared, he sat back on his throne, leaned back in the chair, and waved his hands casually.

"Tsk tusk, it's really a poor beast, I will try to stop mocking you, ah, in most cases, arrogance is our opinion of ourselves, but pride is always related to others' evaluation of us, then we Change the subject, are you a proud person? Dick."

After speaking, before Dick could answer, he put his finger to his mouth.

"Shhh, I guess, you are."

Dick sat on the chair, bent over, gasping for breath, like a poor man who had just been rescued from drowning. Although there was no danger of fighting with swords, and although there was no fatigue from fighting, those words just now, But like the most terrifying blade, it pierced his soul time and time again, pushed away the soul hidden in the deepest place, and exposed it to himself for the first time.

He has never felt that he is so fragile, but in fact, every tough guy has a fragile heart. Most of the time, we carefully hide our true self. At the moment of sudden exposure, how powerful a person is Weak is like an unarmed child.

But he has to resist. If this blue **** continues to torture his heart, Dick feels that he will collapse and be completely overwhelmed by this negative will. Of course, this means that he has to face his own for the first time. Inwardly, this is not an easy task.

Face the heart, but it has never been a simple thing, it has never been.

"I am a proud person."

Dick straightened his body from the state of bending over, his eyes still had a trace of panic from just now, and a trace of hesitation, but in the end, the light transformed into a touch of firmness in his eyes, and then disappeared again.

"I am a proud person!"

He repeated what he said just now, with a hint of stubbornness in his tone. This answer surprised Landick, but he reached out and probed and made a "please" gesture.

"You know, too much respect sometimes requires a big price."

Dick made a funny joke. Neither he nor Landick laughed. "I don’t know why Norgannon chose me. Maybe it’s lucky, maybe there are secrets I can’t see through, but it’s not. Important, I admit that what you said is not wrong, I... I do feel the distance between me and those girls, but at least I am learning to love them, because I know that those who love me place their hopes on me. Those who hate me also poured hatred, and I know the weight of all this."

He looked at Landick,

"You’re right, I don’t know what I want, I’m confused, whether to move on or stop, you know, I can’t stop, but I know at least, I shouldn’t let them down. Those who are standing behind me, looking at my back."

"The fire bearer walking in the dark? A good analogy."

Landick pursed his lips and gave a compliment, but there was no joy in his tone.

Dick didn’t care, he just continued to say,

"When they don’t know where to go, I actually don’t know, but I have to take them to move on, so we won the battle of quicksand, so we won the black dragon, so I came here, I stood In front of you."

"Being at the forefront means that I have to bear all the glory and praise, and it also means that I have to block the first wave of swords and edges. That's right, one of my orders can really make thousands of people shed blood. Chenghe, but so what? Do you think I shouldn't do that? Do you think I shouldn't have that qualification?"

Dick stood up,

"Looking back, my illusion, Darrowshire, Blackstone Mountain, Silithus, that is my footprint, I deserve all this, I feel at ease!"

"Hahaha, you are so fun."

Landick's eyes narrowed, "Do you believe it yourself when you say such a stupid thing? Do you believe everything you say?"

"Fur..."

Dick shrugged, "Yes, I don’t believe it...but I’m right, don’t you? To bear the cost of all pride is to give what you have. If I don’t give, you won’t show up, do you ?"

Landick barked his teeth.

"So what? Don't forget, you are always an outsider, when they know who you are..."

"Hi, Leah, what are you doing?"

Before Landick finished speaking, Dick opened his spiritual link and said to Liadrin, who was busy in Theramore, "Do you miss me? Recently."

"Hate you, Dick, why do you suddenly ask this question?"

Liadrin's voice was a bit shy, but she quickly said, "Of course there is. I just talked about you with Anna. Duke Kalia will give you a big gift. We are considering whether to..."

"Wait, Leah, I have something to tell you."

Dick glanced at Landick, pursed his mouth, and then took a deep breath, "I am not a creature of Azeroth. I come from another world. Up to now, everything I have done is in Nuo Gannon, I will be scared at the request of a Titan, I will be scared, I will be worried that I am not worthy of you, after all, before coming here, I was just an insignificant little person."

The biggest secret was out, Dick felt relieved, all the burdens disappeared at this moment, but then there was a touch of worry. The time to decide fate has come. Both he and Landick know this. Liadrin's answer will directly influence the battle between him and Landick.

1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds.

Then he heard Liadrin’s voice,

"I'm very angry, Dick, but I'm also very happy, don't forget that our souls are connected. I know you have a secret from us. We are waiting for you to reveal all this to me. Now I'm waiting, about that question..."

"It doesn’t matter where you came from, it doesn’t matter what you were before... The important thing is that you are Dick, you are the Dawn Knight, you are the savior of Quel'Thalas, you are a hero, and you are my Dick. , That's enough, isn't it?"

A smile appeared at the corner of Dick's mouth. It was solid, it was happiness, and it was a smile of relief.

"Thank you, Leah, I still have things to do. I will go back soon and say hello to Anna for me."

Landick’s face was darkened to the extreme, but Dick’s call was not over yet.

"Hi, Little Wolf Girl, I have something to tell you..."

"It's not important. I approve of you. You are Dick of Willinde Starsong. That's enough."

"Hi, Lord Anvina, I have something to tell you..."

"That's why you interrupted me playing with Little Sousse? You are so annoying, don't you know? How many alien creatures are there every day in Azeroth, do you know? Don't bother me with this kind of thing in the future, you stupid!"

"Moam, I have something to tell you..."

"Wow, no wonder adults can be so great. It turns out to be fundamentally different from our tiny creatures. This makes me feel your greatness even more. I and all Anubisath are waiting for the return of the great master!"

"Hi, sister Tao Shi, I have something to tell you..."

"Is this... important? You saved me, so I need to repay me, and I don't need to know who you are, and don't use that frivolous address! Please call me Tao Shi."

Dick finally ended the soul connection. He looked at Landick, who was about to tear and disappeared before his eyes, grinning, truly showing a smile.

"Should I be looking for someone else to ask?"

"Wow!"

The answer to him was a roar containing chaos and madness, watching the tearing body appear in front of him, the arrogant evil spirit with white light spots in the blue, watching the twisted and evil figure, Dick turned away. With his mouth curled, the wind chasing sword in his left hand once again wrapped the lightning and light, illuminating everything in the dark,

"Your ability is nothing more than that."

"I never worry that they will abandon me, nor that my pride will make them abandon me, because I gave them everything, and they will use everything to repay me."

"I walk forward with fire in the dark, without fear, without wavering, because I know that I am protecting those that I deserve to protect. In this world, what do you want me to ask?"

"I want to save it, that's it! That's it!"
