Chapter 1725: Save Me.


    Chapter 1725: Save me.


    On a certain night, Leia found herself alone again outside the valley. She stood in the deste


    darkness, staring at the underground city that had be nothing but ruins. Suddenly, tears began to


    flow from her eyes.


    A voice suddenly appeared behind her.


    "Do you really not know who that child was who shot at you all those years ago?" The voice asked.


    Leia''s crying abruptly stopped and she froze in ce.


    The voice continued, "Or is it that you do know but just don''t want to admit it...?"


    "She killed those children. She destroyed your home. She... destroyed all of your hopes!"


    Leia''s face turned pale and slowly turned around to face Cassius standing behind her, looking out at

    the darkened city with a cold yet gentle tone in his voice.


    "Do you remember that winter? It was very cold with snow everywhere and our beautiful home was


    quiet like a painting. A young couple apanied their ten-year-old daughter on her birthday."


    Leia''s lips trembled violently as he spoke.


    "That night there was warmth from the firece, a beautiful birthday cake, gifts from friends and


    Leia visibly stiffened as something seemed to boil inside of her pitch-ck eyes.


    "But suddenly everything changed when disaster struck this beautiful mountain valley city."


    "A military force arrived here; they surrounded this town and aimed their knives at every person inside."


    "Blood was spilled on the snow, staining the entire city red..."


    Leia''s fingers spasmed and her gaze began to be confused.


    At one moment it is the bright and warm candlelight, at another moment it is the blood-red color that


    stains the eyes...


    "The girl''s father and mother risked their lives to send her away," the man''s voice, although not


    particrly cold, sounded bone-chilling to Leia. "They knelt on the ground, desperately begging the girl


    leading andmanding the army on the other side, pleading with her to spare their daughter..."


    Leia seemed to have been pricked by a needle, and the color drained from her face in an instant.


    "They were met with an unrelenting ughter," Cassius spoke with an unwavering tone, "right in front


    of their father and mother, screams and cries filled the air as one child after another fell to the ground,


    their blood staining the snow, covering the ground..."


    In Leia''s chaotic eyes, there is a faint hint of blood and hostility emerging.


    Ears filled with immature crying and pain sound, oing, overwhelming, killing bullets, and far


    away... The howling of the young couple who were living to death.


    "Many of them are still immature, with only a pair of innocent eyes wide open, forever trapped in that


    icy and snowynd..."


    Leia clenched her fist.


    Cassius lowered his eyes. "In the end, she kills the couple who are trying to protect the girl..."


    Leia''s pupils contracted violently.


    Countless shadows carrying the scent of blood and fire flew past quickly before my eyes, each one


    covered in ayer of crimson.


    Until it stopped on a young couple.


    The young husband fell to the ground, protecting his wife underneath him.


    In her arms, the woman tightly held her ten-year-old daughter. Her body was covered in blood, but she


    still smiled gently at the girl, encouraging her to live on.


    Suddenly, a piercing scream echoed through the night.


    In that moment, Leia finally saw clearly the face of the little girl who had always been blurry in her


    memory. She had snow-white and icy-cold eyes...


    Leia''s knees gave out as she knelt heavily towards the direction of the underground city. Her head hit


    hard against the ground.


    Cassius looked at the little girl who had finally regained her memories with a hint of pity in his eyes.


    "You did nothing wrong but became innocent sacrifices..."


    ...


    Selena worked tirelessly for a day and night before finally settling on a final blueprint for their


    organization. After Osvaldo dropped her off to rest, he went to prepare food for her.


    Selena took a shower and changed into pajamas before preparing to continue studying their blueprint


    when suddenly she heard two heavy footsteps behind her.


    Sensing something amiss, Selena turned around only to be met with a dark gun barrel pointed straight


    at her face.


    As soon as Selena recognized who was holding it, she felt herself shrink back in fear. "Leia..."


    Leia''s face was pale and disoriented; however there was an overwhelming hatred present within those


    once pure and innocent eyes as they stared directly into hers: "It''s you... You killed everyone - my


    parents included - you killed them all..."


    Selena heard the usations that came at her like a barrage of arrows, and in an instant, she knew


    Leia''s true identity.


    Leia said she was an orphan, picked up by Joanna from who knows where, with no memories before


    the age of ten.


    If she were just a normal child, why would she have lost all memories of her past?


    All this only proved one thing: Leia was a survivor from the underground city. She was one of those


    children who had been ordered to be killed by the military...


    Selena''s face turned pale as snow.


    Leia looked at Selena with tears streaming down her face. "Do you want me to deny it?" If Selena


    denied it then Leia would believe her.


    Selena stared nkly at Leia with a face as pale as hers.


    The silence that followed shattered any hope left in Leia''s heart.


    She suddenly broke down in tears and grabbed Selena by the neck. "They were all innocent! You never


    kill innocents! Why did you attack them?!"


    "Why did you have to kill my parents?!" Leia screamed, shaking Selena violently. "And why did you


    have to go after those kids?" New chаpter av?ble on Drаmanоvels.cом


    "In a disaster like this, there''s no room for sentimentality or second chances," she continued. "But I


    know that doesn''t make it any easier for the victims."


    Selena''s face was as white as snow, unable to deny or defend herself.


    Leia cried out in anguish. "Why did it have to be you? Why?"


    "I don''t want to hate you," she sobbed. "But if I don''t hate you, who should I hate?"


    "Miss Leia... I''m not smart enough... please help me..." Selena looked at her with eyes that used to be


    so innocent but now filled with pain and hatred.


    Leia stared back at her for a moment before nodding slowly. "Okay."
