Chapter 1101: Carrying the weight forward

By the time Jeno returned to the Bridge of Sorrows, it was already dark, but everyone was still waiting for their return in the cold wind.

When they saw a few people returning safely, a burst of cheers erupted on the bridge.

He gladly accepted the welcome and thanked them with gratitude. Later, Zoe finds Ezreal, and Ash finds Jeno.

"Ash of Warmother, how did you get here? Didn't I let you stay in the main castle to take care of the Iceborn orphans? ”

Ash brought the overwhelmed Iceborn orphans, and now they were standing in the corner with the punished Iceborn, away from the corpses of the Void creatures that had hatched.

"The war outside is over, and Sejuani has entered the main castle with her people, and they want to storm it, but I won't let it, because I'm afraid it will affect your actions under this abyss......"

Her words reveal some key information - the battle between the Avarosa and Winterclaw against the Frostguard is over. Sejuani won a crushing victory, defeating the tough and tough Frost Guards, and leading the remnants of her army into the fortress.

They scavenged the freezer enough to sustain the army's return journey, but the need for food had been halved by the end of the war.

"Why did Sejuani come in?" Jeno said, looking at the group of children again, suddenly feeling pity for them.

Their parents, with a sacred heart, voluntarily severed all ties and sent them to the Frostguard Fortress for further study, knowing that they would encounter this great war and become war orphans. And the frost guards in the entire fortress either died from the trampling of iron hooves or were mutilated by the void creatures, and I am afraid that there are not many people left.

So Jeno worries about the future of this group of orphans.

"Lisandro, she's here for Lisandro, she's angry, she's looking for witches everywhere......" Ash said.

"......" Jeno was speechless for a moment, as Ash didn't seem to realize that the woman he was carrying now was Lisandro.

The sleeping Lisandro lay on Jeno's back, her white hair just covering the tattoos on her face. Ash didn't recognize it at the first time, maybe Lisandro in her impression was still the tall witch walking on the skate, and there was no connection to the woman on Jeno's back.

After all, the changes between the two are too great.

"She's here for revenge?" Jeno suddenly felt a puff of dryness, and the feeling became even stronger after Ash nodded.

Yes, he realized that after losing so many Chang people, Sejuani and Ash's hatred for Lisandro would only grow stronger. She weaved lies and manipulated the fate of two generations for nearly half a century, during which she died I don't know how many people, how could such hatred be put down?

Salvation and revenge, Ash may choose the former in the throes of pain, but Sejuani will definitely choose the latter without hesitation.

Therefore, Jeno made a choice very against his will.

"Witch, it's dead."

He weaved lies like Lisandro to deceive the two mothers, and he was good at it, he just didn't want things to get deadlocked.

"Really? That's great......" Ash was stunned, she knew it wasn't good news for Sejuani, and that not being able to kill the witch would make her regret it for the rest of her life.

"And what's behind you?" Ash looked around, her eyes seemed to be looking for something, and she began to notice the woman who was sad about Jeno.

"A Frost Priest, and a little useful." Jeno quickly diverted the subject: "You didn't let Sejuani in, you did a good job, because it's still dangerous here." ”

Jeno Nunu pouted, motioning for Ash to look through the mist that enveloped the bridge to see the corpses of the Frost Guards scattered around.

"Hiss......" Ash gasped, the wounds faintly revealing a horror she couldn't comprehend, a fatality that no one who had truly understood the Void could comprehend.

This was the effect Jeno wanted, and the shock overpowered Ash's curiosity. He then struck while the iron was hot and said to her, "You can see that it is still not safe here, so take the children and go to Sejuani." Tell them that this is a forbidden place, as long as they don't break into it easily, they can scavenge in the main castle as much as they want. ”

"Those monsters ......"

"Those monsters still lurk in the abyss, sneaking in the dark, grinding their teeth and sucking blood, disemboweling their bellies...... I closed the gates of the main fortress to prevent them from escaping and spreading like a flesh plague. So, I hope you guys can cooperate with me and don't open the door, okay? ”

Jerno's depiction of something terrifying scares Ash, and she realizes that she had made a mistake in breaking into the Bridge of Sorrow with a group of weak children.

"Good, good!" Ash hurriedly left the Bridge of Sorrow with the orphans, and now she threw herself on them.

The war was over, and there were enough casualties, and she had to save a few before Sejuani wiped out the remaining frost guards. Those frost guards are the best mentors for these children, and their legacy should be accepted, not erased.

The main castle gate slammed shut, and seeing Ash's back disappear behind the door, Jeno had already decided to do some protective measures for Lisandro, after all, there were not a few people in this fortress who wanted to kill her. He also began to realize that Lisandro had said that he wanted to protect her body, and that he had expected this situation a long time ago.

Jeno finds Nunu and returns the Ice Gem to him. In order not to disturb Lisandro's sleep and cause her dreams to collapse, Jeno had Nunu make an ice coffin and a mask for her.

The mask did a good job of blocking the most recognizable light blue tattoo on Lisandro's face, and Jeno lay her flat in the coffin, his hands crossed over her abdomen. Her breathing rate was squeezed by the cold ice, slowly, like a delicate corpse.

He closed the lid of the coffin, and others could only see a vague figure from the outside. As long as he didn't say anything, no one knew that it was Lisandro lying inside.

Now, no one will disturb the dream world.

Nunu watched as Jeno carried the ice coffin on his back, full of puzzlement.

"Jeno, why are you carrying something so heavy on your back? Aren't you tired? ”

Because he was carrying an ice coffin, Jeno couldn't play with his waist, so he had to reach out and touch Nunu's head and say to him: "I'm carrying the whole world, so what's the matter if I'm tired." ”

Such an abstract answer made Nunu even more confused, and unconsciously, Nunu said that he would also try to carry the whole world.

Of course, Jeno wouldn't give him the ice coffin on his back.

"Silly boy, when you grow up, you will understand the meaning of moving forward with a heavy load." Jeno said.

"And when will I grow up?"

"When you find the girl you love, you'll grow up."

"My beloved girl? Does Reika's mom count? ”

Nunu's question stunned Jeno, and he replied with a smile: "Yes, of course!" Then he lowered his voice and whispered to Nunu, "Come! I'll tell you a secret! ”

"What secret?!" Nunu pricked up her ears.

"I think I know where your mom is!"

"Wow! Are you sure?! Nunu screamed so loudly that she couldn't hide her secret.

"I've made people look for your mom in their dreams, and when she wakes up, I'll tell you where she is."

"Yay! All right!! ”

Nunu jumped, and the snowman laughed, sincerely happy for his little friend.
