Chapter 851

~5 min read 941 words

Hulei recited Feixiao's predetermined fate to himself.

【In the end, are you the medic or am I the medic?】

【Are you really that confident in your own judgment?】

Hulei's words made Seeing Jiaoqiu unable to hold back a snicker.

【I should be going, fox-person.】

【Before I leave, you know what I'm about to do, right?】

Hulei looked down at Seeing Jiaoqiu, a bloodthirsty gleam in his eyes.

【Blood-drinking wine... I heard the Buli people's wartime custom is to slay captives and drink their blood before battle, to rouse their frenzy...】

Seeing Jiaoqiu seemed to have long known his own fate.

【You've really put in a lot of effort studying us... but, your road ends here.】

Having said that, Hulei lifted Seeing Jiaoqiu up,

and sank his teeth into his neck,

beginning to gulp down Seeing Jiaoqiu's fresh blood in great mouthfuls!

【Ahhhh...】

The heart-wrenching pain made Seeing Jiaoqiu cry out,

and as his blood drained away, Seeing Jiaoqiu's consciousness grew increasingly hazy.

Gradually, he seemed to see memories from the past.

【You... are Medic Seeing Jiaoqiu?】

A young girl lying on a sickbed asked Seeing Jiaoqiu.

【Is there something you need from me?】

Seeing Jiaoqiu nodded expressionlessly.

【I heard it was you who saved me back then?】

Gratitude filled the girl's eyes.

【You're welcome.】

Seeing Jiaoqiu waved his hand, cutting off the thanks the girl was about to offer.

【If you're a medic, can you cure my Moon Madness?】

The girl suddenly changed the subject, hope shining in her eyes.

【Even if I cured it, then what?】

【Watch you climb back onto the battlefield to die?】

【Take my advice, child — your physical condition isn't suited for the battlefield anymore.】

Seeing Jiaoqiu knew what the girl before him was thinking,

so he shook his head directly and offered a word of counsel.

【Then, can you cure war?】

The girl did not argue back, but countered Seeing Jiaoqiu with this question instead.

【What did you say?】

【I'm just a medic!】

【All I can do is—】

Seeing Jiaoqiu had not yet finished speaking when the girl cut in.

【So, what you can do is cure us, so that we can go cure war.】

Sparkle: "What is this?"

Sparkle: "The beloved life-flash-before-your-eyes segment?"

Sparkle: "Hee hee hee, love to watch~"

Paimon: "Wuwah!!"

Paimon: "Mr. Jiaoqiu got his blood sucked away by Hulei!"

Paimon: "Wuu wuu wuu... Paimon doesn't dare to look anymore!"

Miss Qingque: "The memory before death is still about General Feixiao."

Miss Qingque: "Sure enough, the one Mr. Jiaoqiu can't set his mind at ease about is General Feixiao, who still hasn't been cured?"

Chiori: "What you can do is cure us, so that we can go cure war?!"

Chiori: "Those words sound... truly moving beyond words!"

March 7th: "Wuu wuu wuu... isn't this just too heartbreaking?"

Robin: "Sigh... when will the world truly be free of war?"

Lumine: "What General Feixiao meant — is it to end war through war?"

Lumine: "Is that really the only way to put an end to war?"

Black Swan: "Perhaps not."

Black Swan: "But all they could see was this one path!"

Black Swan: "Because, strictly speaking, this is essentially a contest of will between two Aeons."

Firefly: "Abundance and The Hunt..."

Firefly: "Between these two, fire and water cannot coexist — one of us must perish."

Firefly: "And the ways of most Abundance-followers also doomed them to be despised by all..."

Gallagher: "That's why I say... this damnable Path toys with the world."

Galaher: "If only this world were just a little simpler, perhaps there wouldn't be so many troubles."

The video continues.

【What utter shamelessness, little Miss.】

【This war has lasted for thousands of years, and it will keep being fought!】

【What nonsense about curing war — you're all just throwing your lives away!】

Seeing Jiaoqiu could not bring himself to agree with the young girl's words.

【It's just like how you healers risk your lives to save the wounded, yet illness and death still exist in this world.】

【We will keep fighting on as well.】

【I cannot speak on behalf of those who are no longer here.】

【But I know that General Yueyu... and all the warriors who never returned did not die for nothing.】

【They did it so that more people could live and return to their homelands — just as you have done.】

The young girl continued to speak,

yet this time, the words she uttered left Seeing Jiaoqiu in silence.

【Jiaoqiu, I order you! Cure me!】

In a daze, Seeing Jiaoqiu seemed to hear General Feixiao's voice echoing in his ears — the Feixiao who had already become a General at 797.

【How do you make a picky child eat green peppers?】

【How do you make a suspicious, vicious wolf swallow poison?】

【The answer, I told you long ago.】

The inner voice echoed through his mind,

and Seeing Jiaoqiu, whose blood was being drained by Hulei,

regained a sliver of consciousness.

【... A person without secrets... is nothing but prey with its flesh torn open, waiting miserably for death.】

【Drink your fill of my blood... Hulei.】

【What a pity, though — I am not a person without secrets.】

【I still have one insignificant little secret hidden away...】

【Dianzhong Powder... I drank it long ago, and its poison has already spread through my entire body... sooner or later... it will take effect on you.】

【The deadliest poison in the world... if it can be exchanged for innocent lives, then it too can be called a fine medicine...】

【I will do my utmost to heal... Feixiao, I've kept my promise.】

【With this insignificant life of mine...】

【... I will bring victory to Yaoqing.】
