'...ok, it felt like it was ripped open and then roughly sewn back on. '

While the black mist was drawing words in the air, it was also pouring out of Vic's body continuously.

In the cave, and even around the cave, a layer of black mist gradually spread.

It's still early in the morning, but it's like late night, with no sky.

Even the burning sky in the distance and the falling meteorite can no longer be seen.

Within a radius of tens of meters, there was only black mist covering the sun.

Vic stood at the entrance of the cave, his body trembling imperceptibly.

pain,

It hurts too much.

It was as if the whole body was roughly torn apart, and then re-sewn in the next second, as if the whole person was undergoing constant splitting and reorganization.

The severe pain even made him unable to cry out, but under the extreme pain, his brain remained conscious clearly and strangely.

Where Vic didn't pay attention, his abdomen, his shoulders, the dark origin stone fragments that coexisted with his body, began to proliferate at an extremely slow speed.

"Vic Saluzzo." Zarro's voice sounded in Vic's ear. "You must know that your current behavior will speed up the process of your origin stone disease, and the origin stone in your body is slowly proliferating."

'Then, Monsieur Zaro, shall I die before reaching the city of Palermo, before sending Cellina away from Syracuse? '

"..." Zaro was silent for a moment.

"No, although it will increase the degree of your infection, it will only reach the level of severe illness at most. Compared with this, what makes your life shorter is that you don't care about yourself."

Vic pursed his lips with some difficulty, his eyes seemed to extend along the black mist, and he saw the black-haired Luper who was staring closely at his back and frowning.

'It doesn't matter, Mr. Zaro.I have already prepared. '

"Hello, Vic Saluzzo." Cellinina said behind her.

She frowned, but she still didn't step forward again, trying to pull Vic back from the hole.

Regarding Vic's current behavior, she probably had a little understanding in her heart.

So she just said:

"Don't die too fast, I still want to use you to make me stronger."

Vic didn't look back, but black mist condensed into his palm, and he gently pinched Celinina's cheek.

what...

It hurts me.

Volper thought to himself, but he didn't feel the pain he encountered, and he didn't make any other movements except physiological reactions, as if he had left his body and became a spectator with cold eyes, and didn't care about it.

The man named Vic Saluzzo was merciless to himself, and never just talked about it.

......

pm6:42.

This natural disaster lasted from early morning to nightfall before it could barely stop.

Vic was still standing at the entrance of the cave, and Celinina was still sitting in the deepest part of the cave.

Vic looked at the black mist outside the cave, and Celinina looked at Volper's back.

"Vic Saluzzo. The Scourge is over, take Celinina Texas away, go west, and don't relax your spirits until I speak."

Volper didn't say a word, and didn't even move at all. He just endured the pain that may have exceeded the limit of mortals, controlled the black mist, brought himself, and started to move with Celinina.

Perhaps, he has developed a little tolerance for the pain?

Vic thought to himself, but there was no expression on his face already covered with cold sweat.

He didn't even have the strength to laugh, and his consciousness was like a string stretched to the limit. It was all supported by a burst of energy. Once he relaxed a little, it would probably break directly.

On the desolate, devastated land covered with accretion origin stones, the thick black mist slowly began to move.

......

pm8:37.

"Okay, Vic Saluzzo." Following Zaro's deep voice, the severe pain all over his body also receded like a tide along with the black mist.

The black mist dissipated, revealing the moonlit night sky overhead.

However, Volper was unable to turn around and looked at the people behind him.

He just stood, relying on his already stiff, unconscious body, which seemed to still have a lot of phantom pain, stood there, bathed in the moonlight.

"Vic Saluzzo?"

Celinina frowned slightly, and walked into Vic, only to find that Volper had already lost consciousness at some point.

She was silent for a moment, tightened the long sword around her waist, squatted down, and hugged Walper by the waist.

It wasn't until the moment when Vic was picked up that Celinina suddenly realized that the fox's body was so light that she felt effortless.

too light.

It's not like Volper of his age and height at all.

Perhaps even a child who is only a few years old is heavier than him.

too light...

Light as a piece of paper, and like a handful of dust.

Holding him is like holding a cloud of emptiness and mist...

Like a dream, it seems that it will disappear with the wind at any time.

Cut the skirt, next to the second er 巴斯巴巴巴四Linina's eyes slightly lowered, relying on the moonlight, walking on the desolate land, looking for a shelter tonight.

Her eyes fell on Volper's face.

Vic Saluzzo...

Why do you want to do this to this extent?

Celinina also has a rough understanding of the fact that Vic blocked the Originium threat for her and seemed to have paid a lot of price.

so...

You, again, why?

Volume 48: The Syracusans: Chapter 48 Chapter [-] Vic Saluzzo, the self-impressed man

pm11: 32.

In Syracuse, above the wilderness, in a certain cave.

Volper slowly opened his eyes, looking at the dark stone wall above.

There was a crackling sound next to my ears, and by the way, there was a little warmth.

It's a bonfire.

"woke up?"

A cold voice came from the side, and Vic quietly controlled the black mist to penetrate his body, allowing the black mist to drive his body to sit up.

This time, there was no familiar tingling sensation.

Is it because he can't even feel the pain, or has his body adapted to the existence of the black mist?

Vic didn't have time to think about it.

He looked at Luper, who was sitting by the campfire not far from him, looking up at him, and raised the corners of his mouth to her, showing a smile.

"Oh, good morning, Cellinina."

"...It's late at night now." Celinina responded lukewarmly, and suddenly called out Volper's name:

"Vic Saluzzo."

"how?"

Vic raised his brows, looking at Cellinina who suddenly approached him and brought his face very close.

He knew what she wanted to ask.

Orange eyes stared at his crimson pupils, as if trying to see something from them.

This time, he didn't squint his eyes, trying to hide the emotion in his eyes.

Walper and Ruper looked at each other.

He heard her soft question.

--"Why do you want to......"

The voice stopped abruptly.

Vic squeezed her chin, then bit her lip.

"...Well!"

Her orange eyes widened slightly, feeling the bloody smell in her mouth and the tingling sensation from her lower lip.

Rubbing her lower lip like a lover kissing, the strength between the teeth and the tingling sensation on the lips clearly told her that this was not the case.

The crimson pupils drooped slightly, but lifted up the next moment.

He let go of his mouth and pressed his forehead against hers.

There is no black mist to restrict her actions.

But Celinina remained motionless as if imprisoned by invisible things.

He just stared blankly at Volper's crimson eyes.

"I want to ask why I want to protect you, why do I do such a mess for you?"

"Ha, don't pity me, Cellinina Texas." Volper sneered and looked at her.

"I didn't do anything for you." He said, licking the scarlet blood from the corners of his lips, but there was no smile on his face that was always smiling. "Everything I do is for myself."

"I don't need your charity, Cellinina Texas."

He repeated: "I didn't do anything for you."

Vic Saluzzo.

everything he does.

It's all just to impress yourself.

He is indeed a self-moving person, doing some things on his own, and moving himself on his own.

But that's why.

He never used high-sounding reasons to whitewash his actions.

Not for Cellina Texas.

Everything he did was just what he wanted to do, so he did it.

Just to impress yourself.

She froze, but Volper's voice continued.

"Celinina Texas, you don't seem to understand me."

Volper hugged the dull Luper into his arms, as if whispering love words softly, but with a bit of cold and sharp meaning:

"I told you, Cellinina, stop being naive."

"You still don't seem to understand, you always feel like I'm doing something for you, doing something for you... But you don't understand even more, those things I did were never for you."

"You have learned to be calm, you have learned how to become stronger, and you have learned to suppress your killing intent... This is good, but you are the only one who shouldn't—"
