"Theresia, you hate the fate that is like a curse on you, but you also know clearly in your heart that in this snowy land, you can pull out the red flame sword and inherit the power of the Valkyrie, and you can stand up to fight and kill.

Perhaps the only one who belongs to the Ice King is you."

"The hatred of parents, the kindness of Yu Huo, the innocent people who feel the same, have suffered and are suffering from the tragedy caused by the Ice King and the Evil Dragon..."

"You hate to face such a fate, but you also feel guilty and painful because you dare not stand up and abandon them and your inner conscience."

"Being yourself is certainly not an escape, Theresa."

Word by word, Xia Ming completely penetrated Theresia's psychology, and saw through the fear and avoidance that even she herself did not see.

His fingers gently stroked the girl's trembling cheeks, and he used his chest to support her limp body.

His eyes were as deep as night and as gentle as starlight. He held her cheek, slowly leaned down, and whispered to her as gently as possible:

"Theresia, your real fear and escape comes from your lack of courage to break your fate."

"You don't have the courage to draw the red flame sword and inherit the power of the previous generation of Valkyrie even if I am myself."

"Without that, I am who I am. I don't want to be anyone's substitute. Even if I inherit the title of Valkyrie, I still have the courage to become a new generation of Valkyrie that is completely different from the previous generations."

His cheek slowly came close to the girl's cheek, with gentle movements, gentle eyes, and warm breath.

"But I believe you, Theresa." he said.

"I believe you have the strength and courage to break this fate. If you have trouble mustering up courage, I will give you courage. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you must believe in me who believes in you."

The night is like water, and the air is filled with warmth.

He kissed her gently.

"Don't... betray my trust, okay?"

He gave her encouragement and courage.

The girl's body trembled slightly, her eyes widened, and her beautiful emerald pupils dilated and contracted violently.

But then, she became as intoxicated as water, obsessed with the wonderful feeling of being in the young man's arms, both in mind and body.

Yes, Xia Ming is right.

What she was really afraid of escaping was never the fate.

But she didn't dare, she didn't have the courage.

She didn't believe that she could break that fate, that she could become a substitute for the Valkyrie without imitating others, and that she could have the strength and courage to draw a sword by herself.

This is because she is not even aware of it, or in order to cover up her weak and true self subconsciously, she mistakenly thinks that what she is afraid of escaping is accepting her fate.

Xia Ming...understands herself better than she does.

He truly understood and penetrated her soul and heart.

How could...how could there be such a person in this world?

Too much cheating.

In the gap between their lips, the girl stared at the young man's handsome and charming body. At this moment, it was not just her body that was longing to become one with him.

Her soul and heart were completely and completely occupied by the boy's figure.

"Xia Ming, I... I will try to face myself. For you and for me, I will have the courage to face everything and break fate..."

She made serious promises and vows.

"I will always stay with you."

Xia Ming gently held her hand, his fingers passing through the gaps between her fingers, and interlocking with hers, making her feel that their minds and bodies seemed to be connected together at this moment.

She thought that even if she didn't have such strong courage now, as long as Xia Ming was by her side, she wouldn't be so afraid of the road ahead.

Fear, escape...

She will have endless courage for this.

Because even if she doesn't believe in herself, she still believes in Xia Ming who believes in herself.

There is no need to imitate anyone or become anyone's substitute. Even Theresia, even herself, can pull out the red flame sword and ignite the flames to defeat the Ice King.

She can inherit the title of Valkyrie, but she will not become a clone of anyone's will and spirit. She will ignite her own flame. She will become a completely different Valkyrie from her predecessors. She will accomplish what her predecessors were unable to accomplish.

of great deeds.

As long as Xia Ming is by her side, she will definitely be able to do it.

Kill the evil dragon and kill the Ice King.

Then……

She glanced at Xia Ming sweetly and shyly, then closed her eyes, raised her lips, and enjoyed the encouragement Xia Ming gave her.

She thought that meeting Xia Ming here must be the greatest luck God has given her.

Only he and I have such a tacit understanding, only he can see through my own soul and give me great encouragement and support.

The darkness of the road ahead, the loss of the soul, with him by my side, it seems...there is nothing to fear.

the next day.

Tried noticed that something seemed wrong with his sister.

Her face was radiant, her eyes were sparkling, and her body was filled with a particularly lively and youthful energy, as if... she had been nourished and glowed by something.

She did not continue to maintain the rigorous training in Yuhuo every day as before, and tortured herself alone in the thick fog and wind and snow outside.

She seemed...something had changed.

Tried looked silently at Xia Ming who was standing aside.

Last night...what happened?

His fists were slightly clenched under the table.

"Brother, don't worry, we will be out soon."

At the dinner table, Theresia said in a lively and cheerful tone.

Tried smiled and hummed.

Perhaps because he seldom smiled and was used to being silent and reserved, that smile looked a little funny on his old-fashioned and serious face.

Theresia patted his shoulder: "Brother, look at you, you are smiling so unnaturally, you have to learn from me and put down the burden in your heart and smile more."

Tried smiled unnaturally again, but his eyes became a little more solemn.

After the meal, he sent his sister to wash the dishes and found Xia Ming alone.

"What did you and Theresia say that made her suddenly decide to go out?" His eyes were like a sharp sword, sharply questioning Xia Ming.

"Oh, uncle, don't you want to go out?" Xia Ming smiled slightly and looked at him curiously.

"go out?"

Tried was silent for a moment, clenching and unclenching his fists slightly.

"Do you still remember the fate of Theresia that I told you before? If you can get happiness here, but you can only face cruel pain when you go out..."

His fists suddenly clenched again, as if he was remembering some painful past event.

"Xia Ming, let me tell you the truth. I know what you and Theresia are hiding from me. A thick fog that cannot be escaped, a dilemma that cannot be escaped in a lifetime?"

"But isn't the outside world a bigger dilemma for Theresia? Whether it's said to be fearful or said to be escaping, I've figured it out. Theresia shouldn't have to bear such a heavy burden.

Fate, whether those people outside die or live... If she doesn't want to bear the sin of abandoning them, then I will be the sinner who prevents her from becoming a hero, and I will bear all this."

"Xia Ming, I don't allow you to take Theresia out."

Strong spiritual energy and aura erupted from his body.
