Chapter 364 -Love Tribulation Trial (3)
[Ding! The host has finished one of the 99 lifetimes of the trial.]
Dave opened his eyes, shocked and stunned. He hadn’t expected that as he grew old, he would forget so much, even the system itself. His brain had started to age, causing him to lose many memories. Passing the test meant that she died together with him and killed herself to accompany him.
“Sheesh, that was a huge bet on my part. If she hadn’t done that, we both would have failed, and the consequences would have been catastrophic,” Dave thought.
The trial continued, and Dave regained his memories from various lifetimes. In some lifetimes, they lived simple lives in small villages, making a living through fishing, and eventually died of old age. In other lifetimes, Dave was a prince, and she was his maid. He decided to marry her, which angered his fiancée, leading to his banishment and the removal of his royal title. They decided to start anew in secluded villages, living normal lives and dying of old age. Throughout each lifetime, they loved each other deeply, and the cycle continued, causing Dave to feel weary from remembering them all.
Now, they were in the last part of the trial, and the system warned that it was the hardest one.
…
Dave opened his eyes and tried to recall the situation. He looked at the beautiful woman in front of him, who stared back with worry. She had yellow hair and white eyes, and her beauty never failed to amaze him. Dave’s face had also reverted to his original appearance.
He remembered that in this lifetime, his name was still Dave, while her name was Sunshine. They were engaged, but she didn’t seem to like him much as they were not very close. However, she had given him a chance to prove himself, and they met frequently to get to know each other better. Their families were friends and supported their relationship.
But suddenly, a young master from a prominent family fancied Sunshine and wanted to marry her as his concubine. Sunshine didn’t like the young master because he was known for destroying women’s lives and abusing them. Some women who resisted him even lost their lives.
She knew her fate would not be simple, but her family didn’t want to offend him, so they agreed to the proposal. But how could she agree to it? She realized her family didn’t hesitate to throw her away as long as they would benefit from it.
Sunshine felt that Dave was a better choice, so she asked for his help. Dave, a genius from a strong clan, challenged the young master and accidentally killed him. Dave didn’t expect him to be weak, and he was chased by the young master’s clan, which was a colossal one. His own clan expelled him as well, and he was left with no support.
Dave took Sunshine and they ran far away. They were chased many times, but Dave’s perseverance helped them to escape, and he grew stronger through the battles. His body was full of injuries, and Sunshine took care of him and treated his wounds.
In the present, they were in a cave after successfully escaping a strong elder from the clan. Sunshine had nearly been killed, but Dave shielded her with his body and used an escape talisman to flee successfully.
Dave was bleeding and severely injured, yet Sunshine was full of guilt. She didn’t expect Dave to not hesitate to use his body to protect her. She knew that Dave had feelings for her before, while she had remained cold and indifferent. But when she asked for his help, he didn’t hesitate to offend the young master and even escape with her.
His life had been in danger many times because of her, and he was the only one who never left her side. Even their families abandoned them, but Dave remained strong for her. As a woman, she couldn’t help but appreciate him.
Sunshine decided that after they escaped the pursuit, she would marry Dave and live a normal life.
…
Dave and Sunshine finally escaped after a year of pursuit, facing many obstacles, including bandits and dangerous beasts in the forest. They overcame challenges and their feelings for each other deepened. They settled in a village from a neighboring kingdom and lived there peacefully for five years. They got married, but they still didn’t have a child. Sunshine was sad about not being able to conceive, but Dave comforted her and assured her that it was okay.
They continued to live a simple life, and Dave worked as a guard. However, his handsome face became a problem as many noble women tried to abduct him and force him to spend a night with them. Dave refused and remained loyal to his wife. The nobles were angry, but they didn’t dare to force him since he was a guard performing his duties. However, the empress also became attracted to him and invited him to become her personal guard.
Dave wanted to reject the offer, but Sunshine told him to accept and not worry about her. She believed in his loyalty to her. Dave agreed, but this decision angered the emperor when he learned of it. The emperor sent many assassins to kill Dave, but he managed to kill them successfully.
Dave knew that the emperor was targeting him, but he was more concerned about Sunshine. When he reached their home, he found Sunshine bleeding, with a dagger laced with poison pierced through her heart.
Dave became furious, and his demonic energy erupted, elevating his power to another level. He unleashed his wrath upon the prosperous kingdom, leaving only a huge crater behind.
Dave treated Sunshine and traveled to many places to find a cure, but she was left crippled and unable to walk or do anything. Sunshine became depressed, but Dave took care of her and refused to let her fall into despair. A thousand years passed, and they continued to live in a secluded place, living peacefully despite Sunshine’s condition. Dave never left her side.
Suddenly, a terrifying force appeared in front of them. Millions of troops from various kingdoms joined forces to kill Dave. Over the years, he had destroyed many kingdoms to find a cure for Sunshine and took revenge on those who hunted him, turning him into a demon to everyone.
Dave looked at them with disdain and felt exhausted. Sunshine also looked at him with a smile and nodded.
Dave smiled, kissed her lips, and held her hands tightly. “In another life, I hope you still remember me,” he said. He wasn’t sure if she would remember him if she regained her memories and returned to the Celestial plane. She was undergoing the trial, and if she recovered her memories and previous body, she might forget about him due to their difference in status. She could be a god or something, definitely stronger than him by many levels. Her origin was something he couldn’t achieve at the moment, but he was confident in his future.
Sunshine smiled but didn’t understand why he said that. She loved him dearly and was ready to give her life for him, but she sensed his sadness. She also felt that after this, she would become a different person.
Dave then smiled, hugged Sunshine, and suddenly, their bodies were covered by dark energies. However, Dave felt a Holy Aura erupting from Sunshine’s body, and a huge explosion occurred, killing everyone in the vicinity.
