Aztec Eternals

v1 Chapter 537: Immortal sun, set...

Remember [New] in a second! A light wind was blowing in the sky, and the clouds and mists were slightly dispersed, revealing the west-slanting sun. Looking from the towering chief palace, the silent setting sun emits gorgeous brilliance, slowly setting behind the mountains in the west. And the shadows of dusk, surrounded from three sides, like endless waves.

"Sunrise...spring fog...sunset...dusk...it's getting dark..."

The elder lay quietly on the bed, looking at the western sky. The rosiness on his face gradually dissipated, and the look in his eyes was like a candle in the wind, crumbling. The elder Kakamazin knelt before his bed, watching his father who had been in awe all his life, unstoppably entering into decline, and couldn't help but bow his head and weep.

"Kakamazin..."

"Dear Elder, I am here!"

Kakamazin raised his gray head, looked at his silver-haired father, and listened to his teaching for the last time.

"After I leave, according to the tradition, you will succeed the position of chief minister. However, you are different from me, you should keep a low profile and restrain yourself, don't get involved in the internal affairs of the alliance, and don't hook up with too many nobles..."

The elder reached out and stroked Kakamazin's head. He looked at the honest eldest son with a smile on his face.

"Of course, I'm assured of your temper."

"Dear elder, follow your teachings!"

"The future situation of the alliance is nothing more than a compromise between theocracy and kingship, the king's conquest and reform, and what will happen later..."

The elder pondered for a while, wanting to say something before leaving any arrangements. But when he saw the same old son, he still sighed and didn't say any more.

"Jaguars are hunting in the forest, eagles are fighting in the air, and the kingship of Mexica is always passed on in blood and fire. That unique child will always pass the final stage before he can be regarded as the real king. Just let it go~"

The elder lowered his eyes slightly, stretched out his hand, and took out a paper document from under the bed. It was marked with pictures and words, and his jade seal was also engraved on it.

"You should keep this inheritance document first, and keep it carefully... Avit has always respected you. As long as you don't interfere in the government affairs of the alliance, you can enjoy peace... Before Avit goes to the Kingdom of God, don't send it to me. Take it out. And if... you will bring the paperwork and hand it to Xiulot yourself. You are the witness of his wedding, and I have the paperwork left by me. He will always be the guest of honor..."

"Ah?! Dear elder..."

Kakamazin's eyes widened. He looked at the contents of the document and was really surprised.

"Well, apart from this matter, there is no other arrangement..."

There was a touch of warmth on the elder's face. Such emotions rarely appear on him. He carefully thought about the arrangement behind him, and then looked at the shadow next to him.

"Chevalli, you have followed me for more than twenty years, right?"

"Yes, elder, I have been following you since I was fifteen, and it has been twenty-eight years."

Shadow bowed his head to pay tribute, deep sadness emerged from his usual sculpture-like expression.

"Twenty-eight years... At that time, I was exactly sixty-four years old..."

There was a little trance in the elder's eyes. So many memories came to my mind, carrying the weight of time and vicissitudes, which made people a little confused. After a while, he shook his head and smiled slightly.

"I can't remember, I really lived too long...Chevalli, after I leave, you can follow Kakamazin! You don't have to do anything, just enjoy the wealth and wealth. These last few days Years, I am too old, thanks to you..."

"...Senior citizens..."

Chevali pursed his lips, stared at the elder's face, and bowed in a low voice. His face was as stiff as a sculpture again, as if there was a heart as solid as iron and wood hidden in his body.

"It's about time!"

Feeling the changes in his body, the elder looked at his son beside him and smiled gently.

"Kaka, I'm leaving, call me father."

"Yes, dear...Father."

Kakamazin bowed his head in tears, with a sad face.

The elder smiled and nodded, touched Kakamazin's forehead again, and withdrew his skinny old hand. This simple action seemed to exhaust all his strength. After that, he just quietly watched the dim sunset, slowly falling from the evening of dusk to the night of the deep sea.

"In my life, the alliance was established under my witness, the gods rose from my hands, the king ascended the throne under my proclamation, and the general trend of the alliance to rule the world has become... In this life, I have no regrets!"

With a smile on the corner of the elder's mouth, he slowly closed his eyes and murmured softly.

"Brother, I'm here... On the family's sacred tree, my place will be before you..."

The last twilight disappeared from the sky. The deep darkness came like the sea, completely submerging the towering chief palace. At this moment, the elder was shrouded in eternal sleep, and the immortal sun, after shining for ninety-two years, finally set! ...

"...Ah! Woohoo..."

A moment of dead silence witnessed the arrival of death. And soon, a cry from the heart resounded in the chief's palace. More than a dozen elders' guards, tear-stained on their faces, held torches and rushed to various parts of the capital, spreading the prayer of the setting sun to many elders and nobles!

"Father..."

Kakamazin lay on the bed, weeping uncontrollably.

"Senior citizens..."

Shadow Chevali bit his lip~lightnovelpub.net~ even biting blood. He knelt down on the cold ground, and kowtowed heavily to the elder's closed-eyed corpse. Then, with a look of death on his face, he slowly put down the pot and took out the dagger from his waist.

"Since I am a shadow, I no longer have a self... Elder, this is the only time I disobey your orders..."

Chevali's face showed sadness, and then returned to calm. He raised his dagger, aiming at the beating heart, stabbing slowly but firmly.

"Well..."

A muffled groan of extreme pain came from the shadow's mouth. Bright red gushes out from the chest quickly, and the heart bursts instantly. But in just a few breaths, before Kakamazin could react, the shadow fell down beside the elder's body, committing suicide!

With the elder's many secrets and the secret of the high priest's death, he followed the elder forever and went to the red country.

"The immortal sun has set! Darkness is coming in like the deep sea, and the shadow of the sun will also leave the world..."

The cries echoed in the palace and never stopped for a long time. It didn't take long before the howling sounded from all directions in the capital, like
