Chapter VII: The Battle Past
1
Kakat thought anxiously in his heart, and at this moment, Kakat noticed Yulan who was still standing aside.
Is the old man crazy? So his daughter will suffer too! If I could, I would have saved her...... Anyway, why is she still indifferent? What a nuisance......
"Bang ......"
With a loud bang, the energy ball merged with the energy array, releasing a hemispherical energy body. The surrounding stone pillars and pavilions disappeared in an instant, and the light illuminated the entire mansion. The low popping sound emitted by the energy body sounded a bit like a ghost's howl.
Hahaha, so those two imps have finally been eliminated. Yulan's words, I'll be sorry for her for the time being, and then I'll negotiate with the Ghost King, I believe that my friendship with him will definitely let Yulan go, Belo thought to himself, and touched his beard.
It turns out that as long as the energy people who are hit by the "Vampire Carnival Night" will become the "offering" of the Ghost King and be sealed to the ghost territory.
"Ouch, it hurts me......"
Kakat was bleeding from pushing Yolan out of the energy array, rubbing his arm against the gravel on the ground. He looked worried about her, and the latter was still looking at him with an expressionless cheek.
"This ...... How is this possible, to break free from the control of the "Vampire Carnival Night", this is impossible!"
Bello's sunken eyes were about to fall out, and the wrinkles on his face twisted into strange lines.
"Bastard, you almost killed your daughter!"
Kakat looked at Yulan, her face full of surprise and she stood aside at a loss. Although there seemed to be no gratitude in her eyes, the surprise on her otherwise expressionless face looked quite moving.
Then, Kakat looked at the ruined walls around him, only to find that Anri was gone.
"Bastard, where did you get Anri?" said angrily.
"Hahaha, that little ghost must have become a ghost. Bello smirked again.
"Damn...... You're kidding, aren't you?"
Kakat clenched his fists and clenched his teeth. Youlan on the side noticed that his energy and control field were increasing dramatically.
In the next moment, a rising pale yellow energy light surged around the young man's body, like a jagged ball of light covering his body. The dust on the ground has also been blown away, which is indeed quite efficient if used to clean the energy shuttle. His brown hair shimmered like a golden film of light at this time.
Not only Yulan and Belo were shocked, but even Kakat was stunned by his own energy. He couldn't understand what was happening to his body for a moment, but now his anger quickly overshadowed this incomprehension - he looked at Yulan seriously and said:
"Next, I'm going to fight your father, after all, it's his fault. ”
"Just because you're a little ghost, can you still touch me, haha......"
Before he could finish laughing, Bello was stunned - Kakat slammed a powerful fist of rage into his face. With a crisp cracking sound from the impact, the bones of his face shattered, and he was slammed straight into the palace, slamming his back under the throne.
And Kakat had already rushed to Bello and punched him indiscriminately.
"Where did you get Anri, bastard!"
Bello was hit with fists and let out a "whine-woo" sound of pain. His face was swollen, and his eyes were sunken, and he could barely see his eyes at this time. Kakat also didn't care if he could still speak, and continued to punch like catharsis. His face, the blood from the ruptured wound, splattered everywhere from the impact of his fists.
His words...... In ghost territory. ”
Yulan didn't know when he entered the palace. Seeing her father like this, she finally began to sob.
“……”
Kakat stopped punching and looked at Bello, who had already been unrecognizable. And the latter, struggling to climb to the throne.
Youlan on the side hugged his father and sobbed in a low voice.

Sidal Mansion is essentially an energy shuttle, so when Sidal Bello's energy begins to deplete as the owner of the shuttle, it will naturally affect Sidal Mansion itself.
And Yulan is the root cause of failure. However, she suffered the most.
The operation performed on him by the diminutive doctor in the name of "science" is still etched in my heart: countless thin tubes are wrapped around the body, and the thin body is surrounded by all kinds of flickering instruments. The cold-eyed doctor inserted a syringe the thickness of his own arm into his neck, and he was unconscious by the intense disobedience of the rapid flow of blood, the cramping of his muscles twitching violently, and the severe pain caused by the operation without the use of anesthetic.
When he woke up, he was relieved to learn that the operation had been successful, and he thought that his father was finally the king of vampires. At the same time, my father looked at her and showed surprise, but then she was moved and heartbroken, and she smiled back in order to show that she was fine. But she still remembers her smile at that time, it must have been very bitter.
It's just that after that, the sequelae of the operation made Yulan miserable. But seeing his father show a smile that he had never had before, Yulan decided to pretend to be very happy, smiling hypocritically every time he met his father, forcibly enduring the pain, just not to spoil his father's joy.
The after-effects of the operation also caused Yulan's energy to begin to change, and although it did not cause much inconvenience to her life, she knew that her abnormal energy was "corroding" her father, who was even older. Every time I looked at my father's wrinkled smile, I felt more and more pain.
When Yulan heard about his father's so-called method of "making the Siddal family strong", he was sure that it was not a legitimate way. But for the sake of his father, Yulan did not intend to stop it, and at the same time decided to assist as much as possible. After all, my father is like this because of himself.
The daily self-blame, running away from his father, made Yulan feel more and more numb. When she looked at herself in the mirror, she found that she couldn't smile anyway.

Bello actually knew that his daughter had been suffering and forced a smile. Because of his cheap vanity, he ruined his daughter. But his own vanity, if not hypocritical, is not surprising.
However, Bello also understands that if he shows an expression of distress and self-blame, the "play" that his daughter has done for herself will be in vain. So, he also began to cooperate with his daughter, pretending to be very happy.
It's just that in this way, the daughter began to run away from herself. Bello always let her do it, after all, it was better for both father and daughter.
When Bello learns that an energy shuttle named "Nebukri" has a huge amount of energy, and that the administrator is actually two milky imps, Bello's always dull heart is finally cleared.
Of course, when Bello secretly transported energy, he deliberately did not apply the counter-reconnaissance technique. First, he wanted to see which two imps were, and second, and most importantly, no matter what the strength of those two imps was, it would be best if he could become Yulan's partner and take Yulan out of this place of pain and get rid of this pain.
Bello also knew that his daughter already knew the truth. But he firmly believes that his daughter has already reached a consensus with him.
As long as those two imps are brought here, Yulan can smile again, Belo firmly believes.
Of course, he also knew that he was about to die

"The old man...... Uh, your father should be fine. Kakat blamed himself for some reason, "I didn't give it my all. ”
"Woooooooooo......oo Thank you. Yulan helped Belo and sobbed.
Obviously, they stole their own energy, and it is not an exaggeration to hate them. But Kakat understands that this kind of self-blame now comes more from the girl in front of him who can't help but want to protect.
When he saw her for the first time, Kakat had an inexplicable liking feeling, as if he had done it before. The girl, though cold and unconcerned, gave Kakat the feeling of wanting to get close to her, convinced that she was only imprisoned, and that if she was broken, he would be able to witness her smile. After all, there is no such thing as a person who can't smile!, so no matter what, Kakat doesn't want to be her enemy, preferring to vent his anger on Bello unilaterally.
"I said what...... It's strange and uncomfortable for you to stay alone in this empty mansion, so it's better to ...... Join my energy shuttle. Kakat said with his face tilted to the side, gently pulling his hair and blushing.
What is there to be shy about.
Yulan's eyes widened as if he saw the energy factor in the air, and he looked at Kakat in amazement.
I didn't expect her to show such a vivid expression of surprise, Kakat was as surprised as if she had discovered a new world. It's so cute, and Kakat seems surprised that he prefers this type of girl.
"I'm a thief who stole your energy, ...... people like me"
Before Yulan could finish speaking, he was strongly interrupted by Kakate:
"If you mean to assist your father, which has nothing to do with me, I now ask you if you would like to join my energy shuttle. ”
"But...... I didn't stop it at the time......" Yulan bit her lip, looking aggrieved.
"It's all about me!" Kakat seemed a little moved, "Now I'm sending out the invitation on the premise of being a partner." ”
"This ...... It's so unfair, it's clear that it's my fault. Yulan looked like she was crying.
In just a few minutes, Kakat was surprised that Yulan's otherwise expressionless face showed so many expressions. It should be said that the shackles that have been binding this girl have finally been undone.
"So, would you like to?"
It's a determined look.
At this time, Yulan's mood also stabilized. She froze her mind, and at the same time brushed the pink bangs on her forehead and said:
"I'm really happy that you invited me because this is the first time someone has invited me...... My answer to your invitation is not 'yes' or 'unwilling', but 'no'. Yulan looked at his father distressedly and said, "The future of the Sidal family must be borne by me, so ...... I appreciate your kindness. ”
"Really...... That's right, too. Kakat kicked the pebbles off his feet, "Since you've said so, I'm not going to force it anymore." ”
Seeing that Yulan was supporting her father to enter the palace, Kakat also turned around and walked out of the palace, stopping halfway through.
"Well, take care. ”
"You too. ”

It's a shame, if only she could join.
Kakat paced out of the blue castle, but the glow from the castle was even fainter.
The top priority is to rescue Anri, and we have to hurry to the ghost territory.
It would be nice to see her again.
"Kakat. ”
It seems that the wish has come true!, Kakat turned around happily.
"Thank you. ”
"Huh?"
"My father had just fallen asleep smiling and peacefully. ”
Laughter full of relief.
"yes, that's great. ”
"It's been a long time since I've seen my father smile so sincerely. ”
Laughter filled with joy.
It doesn't matter if Yulan is smiling because of himself or not. The most important thing is the flower-like smile of the girl in front of her.
I said...... You should laugh a lot. ”
"Huh?"
"You have a really beautiful smile, I should say that your smile matches your face. ”
Although it is very vulgar, it is full of sincerity and no shame.
“……”
It's another innocent flower of laughter.
"The next time we meet, we'll be friends. ”
Yulan was ready to turn around.
"We're there now. ”
Kakat was also ready to turn around.
"Hmm. ”
In that moment, Kakat saw the corners of Yulan's smiling mouth. At the same time, the blue light behind it is also gone.
