Serious person, who is learning magic in Marvel?
74. The Mage's Funeral (3)
"Strange's account is as featureless and uninspiring as the man himself."
Wearing sunglasses, Tony showed his talent as soon as he came on stage. This sharp tongue that never faded made Strange in the audience helplessly laugh out loud.
"But I am different, gentlemen and ladies. I will tell you a heart-stirring and wonderful story. To commemorate the common hero of mankind and to remember everything he has done for us. And I
I believe that his journey will not end here."
After the initial gag, Tony's expression was extremely serious.
"People say that true death means no one remembers it anymore. From this perspective, I believe that He is immortal."
Without staying too long at the opening, Tony quickly entered the story. In his story, He Shenyan, who unhesitatingly sacrificed his own flesh and blood to save the baby, showed another side.
----------------------------------------
"Kill me, please, kill me!"
A woman was wailing like crazy. She was tied to a cross, and her body was twitching constantly. The part where the skin came into contact with the cross hissed, and the flesh was distorted and deformed by the heat.
He Shenyan stood in front of her with a serious expression, and Tony in a suit stood beside him, his face twitching.
Just looking at this picture, an uninformed person might think that the two of them are psychopaths who take pleasure in torturing people, but in fact, they are thinking of a solution.
——To put it more strictly, only He Shenyan is thinking. Tony is just standing here, and he consciously cannot retreat.
After a while, He Shenyan sighed.
"What's wrong?" Tony asked.
"Her soul has been completely integrated with the evil spirit that was bound in her body." He Shenyan explained simply. "There is even no way to remove the influence. From now on, she will have to stay with that evil spirit."
Living under the influence of.”
"Why did you tie her to the cross?"
"Things related to Christian faith can suppress the activity of things like evil spirits. I need her own will to be the leader, not evil spirits."
"But she... looks in pain."
Tony looked at the woman who kept wailing, took a step back, and said this through gritted teeth.
"Of course she's in pain."
He Shenyan said softly: "It's not just pain. Human beings who are forced to merge with evil spirits will suffer unprecedented and huge mental pain. They will be dragged into illusions by evil spirits over and over again, and suffer horrific torture in them.
and illusion.”
"Before we found her, she had been tortured by evil spirits for three days. She did not collapse, so she was determined. But being tied to the cross was not painful for her now."
"Physical pain can reduce the mental influence from evil spirits. She asked me to kill her because she didn't want to be dragged into the illusion anymore and tortured. That's all."
Tony's mouth felt dry and his hands and feet felt cold.
Although He Shenyan's narrative is emotionless, he is a very delicate and sensitive person. Such people often have rich imaginations - in other words, Tony can easily scare himself. The scene described by the Master made him unable to help himself.
The ground was brought in a bit.
Then, he was frightened.
Tony Stark can face the threat of terrorists with his body without changing his expression, and he can wear a suit and fall vertically from an altitude of tens of thousands of meters. But that is the field he is familiar with, that is the field of technology. And now he is exposed to it
, it is a completely strange world.
"So, what should we do?" He couldn't help but ask. "Is there any way to help her?"
Facing Tony's question, He Shenyan just shook his head.
"Killing her is the best help to her." He said this sentence as if without any emotion. "Actually, Tony, that's what I'm planning to do."
"What?"
Tony stepped in front of him and the woman tied to the cross, waving his hands repeatedly: "No, no. He, there must be other ways, right? Killing her would be too cruel!"
"That's not cruel, Tony."
He Shenyan stood there quietly, with some emotions in his eyes that Tony couldn't understand. At the same time, the woman they rescued from the cult sacrifice site had gradually lost her voice, as if she had fallen asleep.
.
"You don't understand." The mage whispered. "For her, death is a kind of relief. She can no longer live as a human being. Even if I can solve the problem between her soul and evil spirits,
Entangled, she will spend the rest of her life with those horrific memories."
"Every night, she would wake up with a start. As time went by, she would even lose the ability to speak, because the pain exceeded the threshold that humans should bear. Tony... there are some things that humans should not touch."
He Shenyan gently pushed him away and came to the woman tied to the cross.
At this moment, she happened to open her eyes. Her brown eyes were numb, and she let out a low whine in her throat - it wasn't that she didn't want to scream, but that she had no strength left.
A slight breeze passed through the room, and Tony couldn't help but squint his eyes. When he opened them again, He Shenyan had already held the woman in his arms. The blood on her body was stained on his black robe. He Shenyan
He looked calmly into her eyes without saying a word.
"I will kill you." After a long silence, He Shenyan said softly.
The corner of the woman's lipless mouth twitched, as if she was smiling. She raised her hand tremblingly, and reluctantly placed it on He Shenyan's right cheek. She lifted it lightly, leaving a trail of blood. Tony heard a slight whimper.
He took a step forward, his fingers trembling.
"Hey -" the woman made a sound of inhalation from her throat, and then her eyes became brighter. "-Thank you, thank you."
Her non-human body was trembling, and the evil spirit was wandering in her body. It had already foreseen the arrival of something, and was furiously pulsing inside the woman, wanting to leave this body and find its next host.
However, a hand pressed on the woman's forehead, stopping its movement.
It also ends women’s pain.
Her body no longer trembled with pain, and the blood stains all over her body also dissipated. The scars all over her body began to heal quickly, and the missing lips reappeared. She no longer screamed and was no longer in pain.
What's left is only peace.
This time, she said in a clearly audible voice: "Thank you, sir. Thank you."
----------------------------------------
"That was the first lesson I learned from him."
"I used to be very stubborn and always wanted to take everything on my shoulders. Because I felt that if you had the ability not to do it, it would be no different from committing a crime. However, even if I couldn't save a woman's life, I couldn't save a woman's life.
What are you obsessed with?"
Tony spread his hands: "After many years, I still remember that scene. He finally buried the poor woman in the cemetery and died like a normal person. He couldn't save her, but he gave her dignity."
