角色故事•三(解锁条件:角色等级60)
「你是谁?」
他没有说话,但将死之人话却格外的多。
「我知道了。你是飞霄的影卫?被我猜中了是不是。一辈子行于黑暗,做见不得光的事……
「不如我给你个机会,我家主人想知道『飞霄有步离血统』——这个传言是不是真的?如果我们能达成合作,等未来扳倒飞——啊!」
事情和他想得一样。于是他干脆地结束掉这次任务。
这是他身为影卫的职责,无所谓正确与否…他的行动只是基于命令。
因为,对他个人而言,每一次成功的行动也是一次机会…复仇的机会。
「一次成功的任务便能得一枚巡镝,一枚巡镝可换一次行刺后的宽恕。」
他曾一度担心自己无法接近飞霄,却被她指定为曜青的影卫,跟随她的身侧。
他对飞霄的行刺从未成功,却练就了一身神出鬼没的本领。这柄黑暗中出击的利刃,其所向不仅指向曜青将军本人,更是指向所有曜青仙舟的敌人,成为无所不在的影子。
「难道你就是…鸦羽怪人吗?」
又一次任务结束。那倒坐地上的小孩怯生生地问道。
「他们说鸦羽怪人会打击坏人,惩恶扬善…但他实在穿得太黑了,没有人看得见他……
「你那么厉害,还穿得那么黑,所、所以…谢、谢谢你救了我!」
惩恶扬善吗?并非出于这样的目的,他只是在执行任务中顺手救了他一命。但他确实早已习惯将自己隐匿在各处暗影中,窥察四周,不放过任何一隅。
在小孩熠熠的目光中,他清楚地看见了身着乌衣的自己。
行于黑暗,也立于黑暗。
鸦羽怪人也好,影卫也好,都成为了他的一部分。
Character Story: Part III

"Who are you?"
He says nothing, but people who are staring death in the face tend to get chatty.
"I know. You're Feixiao's shadow guard. I'm right, aren't I? You've spent your whole life working in the shadows, doing things that should never see the light of day...
"How about I give you a chance? My master wants to know if the rumor of Feixiao having borisin blood is true. If we can reach an agreement, then when we take down Fei — AGH!"
Things are as he had suspected. So, he brings his mission to a swift end.
This is his duty as a shadow guard. There is no consideration for right or wrong... His actions are motivated only by orders.
This is because, to him, each successful mission is an opportunity... An opportunity for revenge.
"For every successful mission, you will earn one strale. One strale will buy you forgiveness after each assassination attempt."
He was once concerned that he would not be able to get close to Feixiao, yet he was assigned as Yaoqing's shadow guard and followed by her side at all times.
His assassination attempts were never successful, but through them, he had mastered the art of vanishing and reappearing like a ghost. This blade that strikes from the darkness is not only aimed at the general of the Yaoqing, but also the enemies of the Xianzhou Yaoqing. He is the omnipresent shadow.
"Are you... the crow-feather weirdo?"
Another mission complete. Sitting on the ground, the child timidly asks.
"They say the crow-feather weirdo beats up bad guys, punishes evil, and fights for good... but... The clothes he wears are so dark that no one can ever see him...
"You're so strong and your clothes are so dark, so, so... th—thank you for saving me!"
Punish evil and fight for good? That is never his motive. He just happens to save the boy while carrying out one of his missions. However, he has indeed become used to concealing himself within the shadows and keeping a watchful eye on all goings-on, not letting anything pass him.
In the sparkling eyes of the child in front of him, he can see himself clearly in his umbral clothes.
He walks in the darkness and stands in the darkness.
The crow-feather weirdo, the shadow guard... they are all parts of who he is.
