Volume 2: Hero Academia Chapter 83: Dreams and Wakes
β......β
Delkora snapped her eyes open, the blood red in her pupils fading. His chest heaved slightly, his breathing was much heavier, and he seemed to be under great pressure.
"It didn't subside...... Still getting stronger. β
Del Cora analyzed the sensation of the moment.
After returning to the dormitory, Delkora meditated for a long time, and began to try to unblock the mood for the first time after all the dorms around him had turned off the lights. He thought that a few hours of suppression would weaken the accumulated power of desire slightly, but the desire that swelled at that moment greatly exceeded his expectations, and he immediately re-closed his emotions, but the accelerated heartbeat and blood were not so easy to relieve, and the reactions of some parts of his body also needed time to recover-
He took a deep breath and let out another long breath.
Sfiodor is both familiar and unfamiliar with demons.
What is familiar is that the members of the past generations of Sfiodor must learn that there must be a chapter belonging to the demons, and the artifact "Dark Apocalypse", which has been inherited for thousands of years, is also inextricably linked with the demon clan, and even the supreme leader of the demons, the thirteen kings who manipulate the seven desires, have also had contact with the Sfiodor clan, and the two sides also have an ancient covenant-
But on the other hand, this knowledge is really just knowledge.
It's been a long time since there have been demons on the Lanman Continent...... In other words, there has never been a demon in the Lanman Continent. The information about demons recorded in the secret knowledge that is now circulating on the continent and known to the Holy Orders comes from a record of Mr. Lance, but the record of demons on it is also very sketchy. And because the demons never appeared in the Lanman Continent, for thousands of years, the Holy Orders have regarded the demons as a legendary race.
No one knew what to do with them, except for the "weak fire" trait that was tested in this accident, and I don't know if it was a weakness.
Especially at a time when the other side seems to have clearly declared war, it is really a bit too terrible to have no understanding of the enemy.
Delkora put away her thoughts, turned off the elemental lamp, and lay down on the bed.
Night.
"Del Kora!
He snapped his eyes open.
It's still a dormitory in sight, but I don't know who turned on the elemental lights.
"You're awake!"
He sat up from the bed, only to find Satya sitting on the edge of the bed...... Satya, whose face was tranquil but slightly blushing.
Wear a dressing gown.
βοΌβ
Delkora slowly stood up, the buttons of his nightgown tugging slightly and loosening it, revealing his somewhat pale chest. Satya glanced at it, then turned her head away in a hurry.
"Satya, how did you get in?"
Del Cora vividly remembers that he had locked the door before resting. Possibly already targeted by a demonic lord, Delkora also set two simple alarm spells at the door of the room - he looked at the doorway, and neither of them was touched. On the other hand, the window was opened, the curtains were blown by the wind, and through the open window, you could see the dim path outside the window.
β......β
Satya didn't answer. It seems, she still seems to be angry about the events of the day.
"I haven't unblocked my emotions yet, maybe the power of desire has invaded too much and I may need time to adjust. After thinking about it, Delkora finally explained, "I hope you understand, I didn't mean to make you angry. β
He felt that he needed to explain, so that he would not be picked up and thrown out by Satya in the future.
But Satya remained silent. She just snorted meaninglessly, and then suddenly lay back, and Delkora instinctively opened her hands, and Satya lay in his arms.
She looked up and looked at Del Cora, her gaze watery. And the already somewhat tight nightgown outlined her perfect figure because of this movement, and Del Cora suddenly remembered that Satya was actually fourteen years old.
Girls always develop earlier than boys, and Satya, who began her puberty, is already a beautiful girl.
Having lost his desires, Del Cora has not lost his memory, and when he looks back on the past, he realizes that he has really neglected Satya's beauty, intentionally or unintentionallyβor never paid attention to it. He loved Satya, and it was easy to conclude from both emotional judgment and rational analysis, but this love never seemed to be due to appearances.
Of course, if you are not in an absolutely rational state, you will probably not be so calm in the face of this situation. Satya, who is lying in her arms and wearing a nightgown, is really beautiful and seductive...... He thought about it, he might not be able to control it in his normal state, and now that he is hit by desire, he will definitely do something that he regrets and makes Satya sad.
It's just that it's a dream after all.
Delkora stared at everything in front of him flatly, and the picture in his vision suddenly froze and froze, and the gray infects all around, swallowing up the doors and windows, swallowing the walls, swallowing everything around him, leaving only himselfβand Satya, who was lying in his arms. And Satya pillowed his lap, turned over with her eyes closed, and seemed to sleep well.
"Even in a dream, even if I am absolutely sane, I still refuse to hurt you, even if it is just a phantom in a dream. β
Delkora shook his head and looked around, but there were more strange scenes in the still gray spiritual space, and other colors were faintly flickering in the depths of the gray mist, like dark thunder behind the dark clouds, slowly accumulating strength.
"The spiritual space has been infected. This is not a good sign, and it seems that I need to ask my father to take a look. β
He slowly opened his eyes.
The dark room, the closed doors and windows, and the two alarm circles still running steadily in the doorway. He turned on the elemental lamp and sat up, and of course there was no lovely Satya beside the bed.
It's a shame.
Obviously there was no regret, but he still sighed softly.
ββββββββββββ
Although Mr. Lance did not need to rest for a long time, in fact, in the memory of the saints, there were only a handful of experiences of seeing Mr. Lance at this point in the middle of the night - and this represented a very important matter, and the matter that Mr. Lance could deprive himself of rest time to deal with was worthy of the attention of any Holy Order.
Therefore, when Mr. Lance brought Mocarus to visit, the two supreme rulers of the Yadu Empire directly threw down their work and came out.
Compared to Del Cola's escape, Russell Sfiodor, as a father and a holy magister, may seem a little more stable, while Ron Cage and his son are in the same vein of calm and calm. However, even they were shocked when they saw Mr. Lance come to the door late at nightβand this shock was undoubtedly amplified when they saw the Siren Prince Mocaros following him.
"Siren's Holy Order?!"
The two of them asked in surprise, almost in unison.
Of course, they knew that their children had saved a Siren Holy Order who had been sealed away thousands of years ago from Sunset Volcano, and this matter also caused a wave of heated discussions at today's meeting, because everyone had confidence in negotiating with the Kraken. But they didn't expect that Mocarus, who was supposed to be in Lanmanhai to deal with the affairs of the clan at this time, would actually appear here.
Moreover, looking at the serious expressions of him and Mr. Lance, the two of them immediately became serious.
"Something happened in the deep sea?"
After a little thought, Ron Cage guessed why.
"Demons have appeared in the deep sea. Mr. Lance replied with a serious face, then turned to Mocaros and introduced, "This is the Emperor of the Yadu Empire, Paladin Ron Cage, this is Russell Sfiodor, the Prime Minister of the Yadu Empire, the Holy Magister. They were the supreme rulers of the Yadu Empire. β
"Cage, Sfiodor...... Are you the father of Del Cola and Assas?" Mocarus asked in surprise.
"It was the luck of a few bear kids," Russell smiled heartily, "and we didn't expect them to go to Sunset Volcano." β
"They will be friends of the Kraken Clan forever," Mocarus solemnly promised again, "and this friendship will never deteriorate like the sea, no matter when and where." β
Such a solemn declaration made on such an occasion is not just a fluttering sentence, but a rather serious political commitment.
"The Krakens and all life on land are God's people, and we are naturally friends, and that's just their business. Russell pushed back lightly, "The Peace Alliance welcomes the Kraken, and the Heroes' Council is looking forward to its first Kraken member. β
For the current Del Cora and Assas, the friendship of the Kraken is not something to bear, and the two of them, as politicians, do not want to put the burden of Kraken's reconstruction on the shoulders of the Yadu Empire alone, and all the children need is the friendship of the Kraken Prince and the Sage Mocarus Achias - however, looking at Mocarus's ignorant appearance, Russell is a little skeptical that the other party understands his meaning.
The self-proclaimed scholar Mocaros is not a political animal like Russell and Ron...... and he is "young" and completely unaware of the unfathomable meaning hidden in Russell's meaningless nonsense. He only took this as a normal greeting, and after a brief greeting, he began to tell about what happened at the bottom of the sea.
"The demon of laziness has appeared at the bottom of the sea of lost technology, and the demon of anger has appeared in the log town where the mercenaries gather, and the arrangement of the other party seems to be pointed. Ron's deep voice was full of seriousness, "It's hard for me to imagine that a demon can know so much about a completely unfamiliar continent. β
"There must be someone behind the scenes. Russell tapped on the table, "The mysterious figure who set up the teleportation magic...... He probably did more than that. β
β...... The Thirteen Great Lords of the Devil, should we still trust them?"
After a moment's silence, Mr. Lance asked lightly.
Long silence.
β...... The constraints of the Ancient Covenant were not just to limit Sfiodor. For a long time, Russell shook his head slowly, "But they are also suspicious. β
"You're hesitating, Russell. Lance said.
"Yes, I'm hesitating. Russell frowned and nodded.
"I'm worried that those kids will be the breakthrough...... If the Thirteen Great Lords really harbored malicious intent, their situation would be in danger. β
