Chapter 1523 The hollow dragon shell awaits its hero
He looked into Kyurem's empty, pupil-less, pale yellow dragon eyes.
Su Hao, who experienced its "life" in the first person in a rather strange way, saw the emptiness hidden beneath its self-confidence and arrogance.
If Kyurem's inner world could be likened to a world.
The little world that belonged to it had been firmly frozen since its birth... no, before its birth.
Everything Kyurem experienced afterwards made it choose to completely hide its true self.
If it weren't for the power of super-overcoming, he would probably never be able to touch the secrets deep in Kyurem's heart.
Su Hao now understood a little bit why the fragments of icicle slate were refined into the "Trial of the Hollow".
During the long coexistence with the sleeping Kyurem, Kyurem's unconscious expectations affected the fragments of icicle slate, and finally led to the current situation.
Even if it is enough to wake up Kyurem now, as long as it wakes up, the trial will be defeated.
But Su Hao didn't want to just walk away and pretend nothing happened.
Everything that the icicle slate fragments do now reflects Kyurem's true thoughts and wishes.
——Inside its heart, it was screaming for help at the top of its lungs.
Once Su Hao knew about this situation, how could he ignore it?
Looking at Kyurem who was just standing there, feeling inexplicably awkward, Su Hao started the conversation.
"I shouldn't be able to see it without your permission."
"The power of overcoming is not such an omnipotent thing."
"........"
Kyurem remained silent and chose to change the subject.
"After being abandoned, I often thought about it during the days I spent in that dark cave."
"When they have accomplished their goal, I will definitely catch them and beat them up, then swallow them up like a feast, and scare them well to make up for the suffering I have endured."
"In the end, they didn't leave me any words. They just carried out their so-called "atonement" on their own, silencing their consciousness, and then returned to my body as power."
"I originally expected to be able to fill my own reality and ideals, but in the end, nothing changed."
"I...still feel so empty."
Its low voice suddenly became solemn, like a lonely old man who couldn't find his home.
Kyurem might have already gotten used to the loneliness he once felt.
But if there was anything that dealt it a greater blow, it was probably the fact that it completed the split with great enthusiasm, thinking that it would finally have a companion in the future, but was abandoned by the other two selves as a body left over by accident.
It even starts to wonder uncontrollably, is Kyurem an unblessed existence?
Compared to the other two "selves" who truly pursued truth and ideals, Kyurem, who was also once the Dragon of Tao, was inherited, but in the end, only emptiness was left.
It was impossible for Kyurem to show vulnerability, let alone cry.
Now it has merely shed the carefree outer shell that covered itself, leaving behind only the young dragon that has been enveloped in endless silence and emptiness since it gained consciousness from the meteorite.
Coupled with some deviations in experience, it is even unable to deceive itself by filling itself with the reason of reality and ideal.
In a sense, it is very similar to early Mewtwo. If the two meet, they might have a surprisingly good relationship.
Su Hao could feel that Kyurem was craving and looking forward to something at this moment.
No one can directly fill the emptiness in Kyurem's heart, and this is an unsolvable problem.
but--
"You are longing for someone to save you."
"Then why can't that someone be me?"
Su Hao placed his hand on Kyurem's unique ice-blue thorny nose, which felt very cold.
He looked into its dim light yellow dragon eyes, then turned to look at Kyurem's strange wings, one large and one small.
He knew that he was doing something greedy.
"It goes without saying that it's true. My actions are also practicing my ideals. If that's not enough, then stay by my side and watch with your own eyes how I fill the void in your heart."
"......"
Kyurem stammered, unable to speak.
Su Hao grasped Kyurem's forelimbs, which looked a little short and funny compared to its body size.
"If you weren't craving for redemption, why would you tear open your wounds and hope for a hero to save you?"
"Let me be that hero."
"The one and only hero of truth that you have been waiting for."
Kyurem, who has been through a lot, knows this clearly.
To themselves, human beings are nothing more than tiny existences that are so short that they are almost a moment.
Overcoming is the connection between hearts, and there is no lie. Because of this, just like Su Hao's unreserved attitude towards himself, it can also perceive his own heart so clearly.
It was clearly just thirteen days that passed in a flash, as ordinary as water.
But the person in front of him was so dazzling, so dazzling that it seemed as if this brief moment could be engraved on his almost eternal soul, never to fade.
It understood why Reshiram, who came from another world and seemed different from the real dragon it knew, was as anxious as a puppy guarding its food when it joked and said with a bit of revenge that he wanted to steal its hero.
After all, dragons always like dazzling things.
Not to mention the one in front of it was so dazzling that it couldn't help but want to secretly hide it from any other dragon.
For the first time, a bright yellowish light appeared in Kyurem's dull, pupilless dragon eyes.
The soul before it was truly reflected in its eyes.
The hollow dragon shell finally waited for its hero.
