Chapter 133 You make the choice, I bear the consequences
"Liz, are you taking revenge on me?"
Even though he was barely breathing, Vincent still covered his heart which was twitching with pain and slowly moved his body to crawl towards Evelyn.
His dry eye sockets seemed to become moist again, with stars twinkling in the bottom of his eyes, making his pupils, which had never been bright, look so beautiful.
Evelyn looked at herself as Lilith, thrusting a powerful blow straight into her own abdomen.
She had never thought of killing him. Even if the whole world stood against Vincent, she would not be able to do it.
Therefore, she also knew that she felt guilty towards the Lan family and the blood clan.
But if she had to end everything by killing Vincent, she would rather exchange her own life for it.
“Whether it’s the Lan family’s fault or Vincent’s.”
"Let me die in their place to atone for my sins."
When Vincent thought that only the vicious part of his heart was left, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
It was not cold like before, but a steaming pool of blood.
Just scattered all over the floor.
Evelin pursed her pale lips slightly and then relaxed again.
At that moment, those smiles from the past, the first meeting, and the girl’s growth.
They are young and promising, and they are in love for the first time.
They open their hearts to each other and even end up loving and hating each other in the future, but cannot be together.
Time and again, scenes after scenes passed by before my eyes like a kaleidoscope of events.
In the end, all these memories turned into her smile, which overlapped with the smile in front of him and was imprinted in Vincent's pupils.
Evelin raised her hand, and this time she stained her fingertips with his heart’s blood, and she trembled as she moved closer to his face.
Even though tears rolled down her cheeks several times, she still smiled and imprinted the blood from her fingertips on the mole at the corner of his eye.
"Don't...Liz..."
Vincent grabbed her falling hand and finally held her in his arms.
He finally let go of his suppressed desire and finally held that person in his arms.
Evelin smiled so sweetly, even if the past was painful and bitter, this moment was worth it.
The moment she leaned on Vincent's chest, she let go of all the unrequited love and was convinced that her decision was right.
At the last moment, she smiled into his eyes and closed her eyes in his arms.
Perhaps the only pity is that she didn't leave him a single word.
Vincent felt her fading warmth and breath, but for some reason he was unable to make any sound.
He opened his mouth, but he couldn't even sob.
But I was so sad and had so many tears.
He was clearly crying, but why couldn't he make any sound?
He held her body tightly in his arms.
"You make the choice, and I bear the consequences."
This time, he imitated her and stained his blood on his fingertips, just like she had done countless times before.
But Vincent never found out.
When he reached out his hand to Lilith, a drop of blood fell on her heart.
It seeped through her clothes, penetrated the skin over her heart, and burned into her.
"Sister Liz, you must remember me in your next life."
"With the mark of my life's heartbeat."
As he spoke, a drop of blood from his fingertips imprinted on the corner of Lilith's eye.
He hoped that this drop of blood and sweat could become her symbol, as she had the same mole at the corner of her eye as he did.
This was probably the promise he made to her to help her transcend the cycle of life and death.
Brilliant dots of golden light and starlight gradually engulfed Evelin’s body.
It covered her hands, her chest, and her head.
Evelyn disappeared completely into Vincent's arms along with the light.
Looking at his empty arms, Vincent finally broke down.
Garland's heart ached violently, and he subconsciously clutched his chest.
It was as if the other life connected there was suddenly severed and completely disappeared.
Everything disappeared, as if she had never existed.
Only the last name left in the wind gave Garland a sense of reality.
Then, Lilith’s voice appeared before Evelin’s eyes like a revolving lantern.
As Lilith's last glance at this world fell, the entire room reappeared before Evelyn's eyes.
She immediately lifted up her clothes, and a red cinnabar mole was branded on her chest.
That was Vincent's blood.
She immediately got out of bed, picked up the mirror and looked at her face carefully.
She remembered it all.
All this is not Vincent's memory, not Garland's memory.
Nor does it belong to anyone in the story.
is her.
It's her own life.
It was her life as Lilith.
She herself is the red rose that can never be replaced in everyone's mouth, Lilith.
After her death, it was because of strong resentment and reluctance.
God gave her a chance to live again, and all her memory fragments and reluctance turned into who she is today.
To make up for what Garland had done for her.
She is both Lilith and a memory of Lilith.
Moreover, once she remembered everything, she would not have much time left in this world.
Evelin sat in front of the bed for a long time, unable to come back to her senses, and a white light gradually appeared in the sky.
As the morning light broke, she sat there in a daze all night.
It took me a whole night to sort out and understand everything.
Garland was a victim of the side effects of the purification.
Or perhaps it was because as Lilith, she was not capable enough to completely heal Garland.
So after his last breath, Garland fell into a long sleep, trapped in that painful memory forever.
During this period, Edward dealt with all the people who were present one by one.
As for Ollie, Yuri and others, he really had no legitimate reason to execute them.
Edward cast a spell to erase their memories.
Yes, it only erased the memories of Lilith from the people around her.
Vincent was seriously injured but managed to survive.
Evelyn concluded that he remembered some things, but not completely.
After experiencing this incident, Vincent became much more mature and stable.
Although he still has a feud with the Lan family, he will no longer resort to any means to achieve his goals as he did before.
When Garland woke up after decades of coma, he had no idea who he was.
Even with Edward's probing, Garland didn't recognize them.
It was as if I had changed my soul and had never been to this world.
Edward felt fortunate, given his personality.
If he still remembered, he would definitely be sad for Lilith's ambiguous words.
Spend the rest of his life searching for her.
Or maybe, he would spend the rest of his life trying to figure out how to resurrect Lilith.
In short, it’s fortunate that I don’t remember her.
