NOVPUBChapter 1512: 678 If there is an afterlife_1 Chapter 1512: 678 If there is an afterlife_1 Today is an exceptionally unique day for many people.
Wasn’t it just about attending a ceremony and sightseeing?
How did it come to facing the threat of death?
This kingdom of Percival is pathetic; they couldn’t even ensure safety, causing so many innocent people to be implicated in their failure.
The anger, grievance, and unwillingness of these people used as scapegoats can only be imagined.
The so-called saintess now seems nothing more than a joke.
She did not bless the people of Percival, but instead brought them a shocking disaster.
...
She is destined to be nailed to the pillar of shame in Percival’s history.
Interestingly, people do not blame the real cause of the disaster, Alora Hart.
Instead, they place all the blame on a victim.
A perfect person is not allowed to have any flaws, even if someone grievously harms you out of jealousy, it must be your fault.
The inferiority of human nature is perfectly displayed at this moment.
These upper-class elites, educated in elite schools, look down on others from their high podium, lacking empathy for the underprivileged.
As refined individualists, no one knows better than them how to seek benefits in desperate situations.
At this moment, a strong desire to survive has given them intense hatred for the saintess.
Although Alora Hart, not the sharpest and overly naive, had a flash of insight at the last moment of her life.
Alora Hart arrogantly believes that no one in the world knows Aubree Groove better than she does.
In a broad sense, she is a very strong person, but this is also her weakness.
She is invincible, but she is also so fragile that a slight touch could break her.
Excitement and maliciousness showed in Alora Hart’s eyes; she couldn’t wait to see what would happen next.
“Do you see it?” Alora Hart pointed at the electronic screen on her chest.
The numbers were rapidly changing, and the countdown was only one minute left.
“In one minute, it will explode, and everyone in this church will have to go down with you.
They are too innocent, and you only have one way to save them.”
At the mention of ‘saving,’ everyone’s eyes lit up.
A small remote control with only red and green buttons appeared in Alora Hart’s hand.
“I’ve always felt that God has been on your side.
This time, I don’t know if you can still be that lucky.
You only have one chance, either we go to heaven together, or we go to hell.”
Alora Hart threw the remote control into Aubree Groove’s hands.
She put the power of choice in her hands, letting her personally press the switch.
From then on, she would be the biggest sinner.
You claim to be the savior of all beings?
Yet so many lives end in your hands.
How ironic.
However, the remote control did not land in Aubree Groove’s hand, but was caught in mid-air by a larger hand.
Alora Hart looked at Anton Cook, who suddenly stepped in front of Aubree Groove, and laughed with her mouth wide open.
“Aubree Groove, I indeed envy you.
At this point, he is still willing to protect you without any hesitation.”
There are many great men in this world, but Anton Cook is at the top of the pyramid.
His love satisfies her vanity to a great extent, and it is worthwhile for any woman to have experienced in one’s life.
Anton Cook said to the nearest Silver Armor Guard, “Take her away from here.”
At that moment, everybody seemed to be shocked back to senses by Anton Cook’s words.
Yes, why don’t they run?
Are they just going to stand there and wait for death?
The scene became chaotic in an instant.
The usually proud aristocrats now disregarded their dignity and ran in all directions.
They were desperate.
All of the delegation except Jimenez retreated.
Aspen and Randa stayed put.
Aspen ran over and shouted, “Are you insane?
Leave here with me now.”
The chaos in the venue happened in the blink of an eye.
On the stage, the King and the Holy Master did not move, and neither did the Silver Armor Guards and all the forbidden army.
A sigh sounded quietly, perfectly masked by the noise at the scene.
She walked out from behind Anton Cook, snatched the remote control from his hand.
She looked into Green Dragon’s eyes and said, “Take him away.”
Just as the Green Dragon was about to step forward, Anton Cook suddenly said, “I won’t leave.”
Cello Cook gently touched his forehead, glanced in the direction of Liam Anderson, lightly coughed, and steadied himself.
The electronic screen on Alora Hart’s chest had already jumped to 37, the intense sense of oppression making everyone nearly unable to breathe.
Aubree Groove calmly gazed at Alora Hart, her eyes devoid of fear, anxiety, or anger, just peacefully watching.
Suddenly she moved, her speed like lightning, she accurately grasped Alora Hart’s throat.
She easily lifted Alora Hart off the ground.
Everyone was taken aback by her actions.
Alora Hart was almost out of breath, her face suffused with a reddish hue due to choking.
The eyes above the veil were deep and icy, like an unfathomable abyss of ice.
This side of Aubree Groove was extremely unfamiliar, a bone deep fear attacked them, almost drowning all of Alora Hart’s rationale.
No matter how fearless and mad she seemed, when death really came, fear from the depths of her soul made her have nowhere to hide.
“You…
kill…
me, you will…
die too.” Alora Hart choked out.
“If I do not go to hell, who will?”
Aubree Groove gave a slight smile, but in her beautiful eyes, there was a cold murderous intent, like ice that had been frozen for thousands of years.
“Green Dragon, take everyone away from here.”
Green Dragon didn’t hesitate at all, and all the Silver Armor Guards moved out together.
Liam Anderson looked at that pure white figure with complex eyes, and finally, under the escort of the Silver Armor Guards, left through the emergency exit.
Kelly Martinez anxiously stamped her feet, but at this time she couldn’t help much, the only thing she could do was to ensure Cello Cook’s safety.
She quickly left the Church with Cello Cook.
Regardless of everything, Randa was about to rush towards Aubree Groove’s direction, but was forcibly pulled away by Aspen.
In the blink of an eye, the giant Church was empty, and the number had reached three.
Alora Hart showed a crazy and malicious look in her eyes and said, “Go to hell with me.”
Aubree Groove’s other hand casually pressed a button, from beginning to end, she never took a second glance.
Suddenly, a shadow fell, and Aubree Groove was enveloped within a pair of large hands.
The person had a familiar faint fragrance, broad shoulders like a mountain, giving a supreme sense of safety.
Aubree Groove’s head was pressed against his chest by his large hand, exuding a breath-taking dominant aura.
Through the thin layer of clothing, she could feel his heartbeat.
Aubree Groove’s mind was somewhat dizzy due to the sudden impact, at this moment, she forgets to think, she forgot the approaching danger, the whole world was silent, only the “thump thump thump” of a heartbeat, rampaging through her world.
The other large hand hugged her waist, the great force made it feel as though she was being crushed into his body.
The strong masculine scent engulfed her, at this moment, Aubree Groove’s mind suddenly went blank.
He told her through his actions, even in the face of death, he would stand in front of her without hesitation.
From a angle that Aubree Groove couldn’t see, Anton Cook’s lips curved, his eyes full of contentment.
Without you, no matter how perfect life would seem to me, it would be a regret.
You were never a choice, but the person I will protect with my life.
Anton Cook closed his eyes, faced with death, he felt no fear, only relief and joy.
Anton Cook thought to himself mockingly, he was indeed a selfish emotional kidnapper, he was actually glad to die with the person he loved.
But for Aubree Groove, this was a regrettable ending.
Regrettable enough, to make him heartbroken.
“If there is a next life….”
Even if there is a next life, what’s the point?
Love is mutual, his obsession will only make Aubree Groove tired, wouldn’t it?
If there is a next life, I hope you have a happy family, live peacefully and joyfully, have a person who loves you deeply, accompany you to see the prosperity of the world, experience the changes in the world.
On rainy days, they will hold the umbrella for you, in sunny weather, to shade you from the sun.
They will worry about your every emotion and shield you from all changes in the world.
Don’t be Aubree Groove anymore, and do not bear responsibilities that aren’t yours, just be a dazzling ordinary person.
Within those few seconds, Anton Cook’s mind had experienced drastic changes.
He felt the real warmth in his arms, he wanted to crush her into his body almost.
In these short yet particularly long seconds, he indulged in his infatuation with clarity.
