SHEN LUÒ – BLOOD OF THE FALLEN**
**Chapter 2: "Memories Are Not Just Memories... They Can Steal Everything From You."**
---
### **THE DARKNESS WAS ALIVE.**
Planet Eralis was a graveyard of dust and iron-scented winds. Above, three pale moons hung like dead eyes in the sky, their light long extinguished.
And in the center of it all—
**Shen Luò.**
A name forgotten by the living. A man who sat alone on a jagged rock, his eyes holding a darkness only those betrayed by love could understand. His hands were stained—**417 lives worth of blood.** His own people. His own kin.
The Commander's order had been simple:
*"If you truly love my daughter... prove where your loyalty lies."*
And like a fool, he had.
He had shattered his own heart. And in doing so, he had shattered the world.

### **FLASHBACK: LOVE AND BETRAYAL**
Her laugh still echoed in his skull.
The Commander's daughter—**human, fragile, beautiful.** Her eyes hadn't held hatred. Only questions.
*"Can a slave love someone free?"*
*"Can a slave's love even be real?"*
Shen had believed, with the desperation of the damned, that she would change everything.
Then came the massacre.
**400 of his own.** Slaughtered by his hand.
And when he thought he had won, when he thought his love had triumphed—
The Commander erased her.
Not just her life.
**Her memories.**
Every trace of her, wiped from existence.
That night, the Commander had looked at him and uttered a single, damning truth:
*"Creatures like you don't deserve to keep memories."*

### **RETURN TO THE PLANET: REVENGE AND RUIN**
When Shen Luò returned to his homeworld, he had expected understanding. Forgiveness.
Instead—
**His mother and father burned alive before him.**
Their own people had turned on them, screaming:
*"Traitor!"*
*"You killed your own to become human!"*
Shen did not speak that night.
He only watched.
Listened to his mother's screams as the flames ate her alive. Saw the unspoken question in his father's dying gaze.
Something inside him died that day.
And so—**he burned the entire village.**
No rage. No sorrow. Just silence.
When they begged, when they cried—
*"Why are you doing this?"*
*"How could you be so cruel?"*
Shen had only replied:
*"In a world where memories can be erased by command... what is the point of being born?"*
*"You are ants to me. And I don't lift my foot to spare you. I crush you."*

### **THE TIME WALKER'S CURSE**
In his hand, a small device hummed—**activated by the DNA of a Time Walker.**
He was no longer just Shen Luò.
He was a **Walker.**
But he wasn't going back to change the past.
**He was going to create a new reality.**
One where love was real.
One where betrayal wasn't a rule—**it was a sin.**
And as the device glowed, as the fabric of time itself trembled before him, Shen Luò whispered his oath to the uncaring void:
*"I will return. But this time... I will be your god."*
*"They stole my memories. Now... I will steal everything from them."*
