Contract and the Demon King

Because of the "incident" that happened just now, the atmosphere in the ward is still somewhat ambiguous.

Art, who was lying on the bed, was surprised that Yue felt differently, but the silence didn't last long.

"I have already decided to participate in that martial arts competition."

Because it was a single room, there were no other patients as a matter of course, and Yue told the people present about his decision.

"After winning, there will be a bonus, which will also help the orphanage. Although I have no interest in going to the military department, if I get that money, everyone in the orphanage will be able to live a better life." .”

"But...but..."

Theresa seemed to be planning to say something else, but she fell silent in the end.The reason why he opposed it before was because he felt that even if he went to participate, he would just die, but now, such worries are completely unnecessary.

There was no reason to object, but Teresa still didn't want to just support this decision.

[Yue, is it strong? 】

Because everything was over when they arrived later, Mei didn't see the scene of the killer under the moon.Even Cang Yan was extinguished voluntarily for fear of accidental injury, only the scarred field and the mutilated corpse proved what happened.

"This, it shouldn't be weak."

If compared with that man, it is undoubtedly very strong, and Fried should be able to win, but what about the people above that?What about the people above that?

Because he couldn't grasp the standard of measurement, he couldn't give an accurate answer to this question.

"I haven't fought against a strong person yet, so I don't know. But if I meet an ordinary soldier, I shouldn't lose."

Slightly raising his right hand, a blue flame appeared on the palm of his right hand, and the flame turned into a small fireball in the blink of an eye, and stayed steadily above the palm.

At the moment of seeing this ball of fire.Both Teresa and Art couldn't help becoming nervous.

After witnessing such a scene with my own eyes, it is natural to be nervous. After all, whether it is Art or Theresa, they are just ordinary people after all.Although the small fireball in front of them would not cause any harm to them right now, looking at it, one would naturally think of the blue sea of ​​flames and the mutilated corpse burned by the Cang Yan.

Perhaps because he noticed the expressions of the two, the blue flame was quickly extinguished.

If it was not long ago, I wouldn't have noticed such a thing.But things have changed a little bit now.Some things that I didn't realize and couldn't understand before, can now be understood.

"In short, let's take care of his injuries first, and I will prepare well for the competition. In addition, there is no need to worry about the hospitalization expenses. Those people in the military department have promised to bear these expenses."

After all, Yue stood up.There was a gentle smile on his face that was completely different from his calm and rational expression.

"Then, I'll go back to the orphanage first, since Teresa will stay in the hospital to take care of Art. Then someone must go back to cook."

"that……"

The boy lying on the bed resisted the pain and sat up, calling Yue who had turned around.

"Brother Yue, thank you. If you hadn't arrived at that time, it wouldn't be just a little injury now."

No matter what the picture you saw at the time.These are words that must be spoken seriously and well.And most importantly, just now.He suddenly felt some familiar atmosphere.

He obviously saved the other party at a critical moment, but when he met the eyes of the rescued, what he saw was a look of fear or something.He hadn't experienced it personally, but he had witnessed similar and even crueler scenes in such a scene.

It's not fear, but a gaze that seems to be looking at a monster.

"Thank you...thank you, if you didn't feel it, I would have been captured by that pervert by now."

"No, there's no need to say thank you so solemnly. At that time, I just ran towards that direction because I felt something in that direction. Now that I think about it, it must be because Haruka was there."

"Eh? Is this the telepathy mentioned in the book?"

"I don't know, but it seems that there should be some connection between me and Haruka."

"In this case, as a thank you gift, sister Yao's happiness will be entrusted to you."

"Hey! Can I just accept it like this?"

"No."

The one who answered without hesitation was the cherry-haired girl who had been silent since just now.Yue, who was hit directly by the force of rejection, immediately became depressed.The exaggerated expression that was obviously pretended made Yao couldn't help chuckling.

"And since it's a thank you gift, I think Teresa's happiness should be entrusted to—"

"Wait... no! It's impossible because someone has already made a reservation!"

Looking at Teresa who protested in a panic, Yue couldn't help laughing:

"Then, I'll go back to the orphanage first."

After saying goodbye, Yue left the ward and closed the door behind him.

His eyes couldn't help staying on the back of his right hand.

It can be easily cast as long as you want, and the range of use is not limited to the right hand.Although I don't know what it will be like to use all my strength, it should be no problem to quickly reduce this hospital to ashes.

"Even the soul can be burned...the fire of the netherworld..."

Rather than saying it is memory, it is better to say it is knowledge, although it is only some incomplete fragments, but now that he can use Cang Yan, he does recall some.This kind of flame called Netherworld Tribulation Fire didn't seem to belong to him originally.It wasn't taken by force, it seemed that it belonged to him and someone——

"Ugh-"

Part of the blood gradually became hot,

The moment he thought about it, a tingling pain suddenly hit his mind.But Yue did not give up thinking because of this.Even though he covered his head in pain and knelt down, he was still thinking hard.

This is bondage.

It seems that it has nothing to do with the intermittent images that exist in his mind, but belongs to the bond between him and someone who obviously can't even remember the name and appearance now, but who is really important to him.

Even now, now that I have lost my memory, this bond is still preserved.

"It should be... a girl, it would be great if it's a cute girl."

Although I still couldn't remember who the other party was in the end, it was much better than making no progress.

After the stinging pain faded away, Yue stood up and walked towards the stairs.
