Standing on the high stage of the ceremony, Vina saw many familiar faces below.

For example, Big Brother Ace, Turtle Turtle, Red Knife, Frost Star, etc., but only Xia Feng was not seen.

Vina didn't find Natsukaze, but Natsukaze kept an eye on Vena.

He did not go to the VIP seats on the stage of the ceremony, nor to the crowd, but stood alone under a tree far outside the ceremony.

...

The sun was shining above, and the breeze rustled through the leaves.

Xia Feng quietly looked at Vina on the high platform, although he only had one left eye to see things, he could see extremely clearly, clear enough to capture Vena's every expression.

At this moment, Xia Feng felt a sense of relief.

He finally fulfilled his agreement with Vina and sent her to the highest point in Victoria.

At this point, his mission should be over without regrets.

...

The air was filled with a faint fragrance of flowers, looking at Vena's solemn expression on the high platform, listening to her sonorous and powerful speech, Xia Feng had a feeling of sudden dream.

Yes, he was afraid that everything in front of him was just a dream for him, because it was so beautiful.

It's too extravagant for this gloomy world.

However, this is not a dream, it is a path of light built with blood and sacrifice.

Unconsciously, Xia Feng stretched out his hand in the direction of Vina, as if he wanted to grab something, but hesitated at the last moment.

What he wanted to touch, he couldn't, because he had something else to do.

....

"The people are the foundation of a country, and the king exists to protect the people, whether it is an infected person or an ordinary person, it is a ........"

On the high platform, Vina, who was speaking, suddenly stopped.

As if sensing something, her perspective suddenly zoomed out, and her eyes flickered to a tree far away on the outskirts of the palace.

However, there was no one under that tree anymore.

"Your Majesty Vina, what's wrong?"

Hearing Chief Arrin's call, Vina withdrew her gaze in frustration.

"Nothing."

"The speech continues."

"Yes."

Clenching her fists, Vina struggled to adjust her mood and continued her speech to the citizens.

It's just that for some reason, her voice trembled slightly compared to before, obviously it was an uplifting word, but there was a faint sadness in it.

It's like someone has helped her make a choice without asking for her opinion.

There were no signs or evidence, but Vina just had this feeling inexplicably.

The speech continued, but her voice grew more and more choked, until finally, tears rolled silently.

Queen Vina, who faced the people on the high platform, burst into tears.

....

....

The hustle and bustle behind him faded away.

Xia Feng's right eye was covered with gauze, and he carried the Shenyue Knife at his waist, and walked out of the city alone.

In his hand, he held a bouquet of white flowers.

The sun shines on the earth, and everywhere glows with the brilliance of life.

The birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it turns out that Victoria's spring is so beautiful, which is something he would never have noticed before.

After walking some distance along the road to the east, Xia Feng came to a small hill next to a stream.

Here, is the Victoria Royal Mausoleum.

Although the name is a royal cemetery, the people buried here are not members of the royal family, but people who are extremely loyal to the royal family and have made great contributions to the country.

....

Silently walked to a brand-new tombstone, Xia Feng placed the bouquet of flowers in front of the monument.

"Meisha, I've come to see you."

There is a line of writing engraved on the tombstone.

[Mesha, Major General of the Imperial Frontier Military Region, 1072-1094 in the Terra calendar, died heroically in battle during the Dark Ages, died for the country, and was immortal. 】

At the top of the tombstone, there is an embedded black and white photograph.

In the photo, Meisha is dressed in a neat military uniform, her eyes are determined, just as she gives people, serious and capable.

But few people know that she will blush like this, and she will also twist and put the elaborate dim sum into the hands of the person she likes.

...

Standing in front of Mesha's grave, the breeze blowing across the summer breeze's face.

He closed his eyes gently, and the wind felt like someone was caressing him.

"Meisha, thank you for your letter, your heart, I received it."

Xia Feng's voice muttered to himself, revealing a depression that he tried his best to hide.

"Victoria ushered in the light, Vena's wish came true, and now Victoria is a country where infected people and ordinary people coexist peacefully, there are no more nobles, no more strife, everything is over."

....

After a long time, a familiar voice came from the side.

"Summer Breeze."

When I opened my eyes, I saw orange hair.

Bagpipe did not wear a military uniform, but a black plain dress, and it seems that she also came to the royal cemetery to pay tribute to her deceased friend.

"Xia Feng, why are you here? Yes! Your eyes ......"

"It's fine."

Xia Feng didn't say much, and he didn't communicate much with the bagpipes.

Seeing his lost look, the bagpipes' expression was also a little complicated.

Looking at Mesa's tombstone, she whispered.

"This Major General Mesha is someone who is very important to you."

was noticed by outsiders on the vulnerable side, and Xia Feng's emotions that he tried his best to hide were finally a little irrepressible.

He held his head high.

"Yes."

"Summer Breeze ....."

"It's raining."

Above is a blue sky, and the sun shines brightly on every inch of land.

The bagpipes stopped talking, and when she saw Xia Feng's cheeks sliding down, she also gently closed her eyes.

"Yes, it's raining."

....

....

Meisha died of her duty to the people, of her own choice.

Her death was as heavy as Tarzan's, as she used her death to convince her father that her death was a turning point in the Victorian Dark Ages.

Mesa's sacrifice was not in vain, but she never had the chance to see Victoria again.

At the same time, there is no way to hear someone's response to her.

Maybe at the last moment, under her resolute expression, there will be a touch of deep regret.

....

Yes, this is Meisha's own choice, as a close friend, Xia Feng respects her choice while grieving.

However, the death of another person is very different.

....

Xia Feng stood in front of Meisha's grave for a long, long time, and he didn't even notice when the bagpipes had left.

Until the sun goes down and the twilight is approaching.

The sky was a fiery red sunset, and Xia Feng's expression had returned to calm, when he heard a call from behind him.

"Big Windmill ....."

Looking back, everyone from Black Feather came here at some point.

Xia Feng didn't speak, he used his only left eye to remember everyone's last appearance deeply in his mind.

Then, he took a step forward.

Sensing his sad mood, everyone was a little overwhelmed.

"Summer Breeze ....."

"Brother Wind....."

"Boss ........."

...

Against the backdrop of the setting sun, Xia Feng stood calmly in front of everyone, and then, he first looked at Nancy.

"Nancy, I'm sorry, I can't attend your wedding, but I still want to give you the big red envelope I promised before."

Nancy's eyes widened in surprise.

"Boss, you...."

"This red envelope is all I can pay, from today onwards, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce will be fully handed over to you, from now on, anything in the Chamber of Commerce has nothing to do with me, you can change it to any name you like, however, remember to take care of everyone."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were shocked.

However, Xia Feng raised his hand and interrupted everyone's voices.

"There is no banquet in the world, thank you for your long-term care, and the summer breeze will be goodbye."

Turning around, he took a deep breath.

Then, he said loudly to the sky.

"I announce, Black Wings, disbanded!"

......

......

The road illuminated by the fire under the sunset, and the lonely back of the summer breeze gradually faded away.

This back was very thin, so thin that no one could have imagined that he could hold up the entire dark age of Victoria.

At the same time, this back is full of an incomparably firm persistence, so firm that no one in Black Feather dared to stop him when faced with his sudden decision.

It's like a train that has already started, no matter how reluctant the people on the platform are, it must go to a distant destination, it is a must.

....

Bathed in the sunset, behind it are the dearest people who are gradually moving away.

Towards the east, Xia Feng's footsteps are extremely firm.

Maybe in another time and space, he made a different choice, but in this only world he experienced, he couldn't deceive his heart.

"Victoria, goodbye."
