The owner of the violent voice that stopped the crowd was a tall man, dressed in a red leather jacket and leather trousers, and his hair brush was made to look like it was standing up, and a part of it was dyed yellow. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

He carried a wooden knife on his shoulder, and the chains that increased his attack power rattled around it.

The leader of the Sword Serpent Gang in the Old Town, Varudo? Vares. Waji's nemesis.

However, Noelle didn't have any impression of this person, and whispered to Ellie's senior, and then he found out.

He is also the leader of the delinquent youth group in the Old Town, and I'm afraid that Waji's departure will be a very empty thing for Varudo. Now, though, Waji isn't showing that feeling. He raised his arm easily and smiled, "Yo, it's been a long time since I saw Varudo - I heard that you don't even go to the Sword Serpent Gang now." ”

The relaxed atmosphere like gossip is like what Waji usually shows, maintaining his relaxed pace, not anxious, and not manic.

Varudo snorted, his eyes glaring. His eyes were bloodshot, like angry bulls. Hearing such a casual greeting from Vaji, Varudo laughed angrily: "You don't need to worry about my business!" - Compared to this, you seem to be a lackey of the police! What do you mean? ”

He pointed his love knife [Shattered Ghost] at Waji, and if Waji's answer didn't satisfy him, it looked like he was going to hit him.

Lloyd could vaguely smell the alcohol in his mouth, and he drank it, and he was afraid that he would really fight. He quietly reached for the whirling stick, but Vaji quietly stepped in front of him and reached out to hold him. Motioned for him not to make a move.

This is a matter for the Old Town, and Lloyd's shot will only lead to the worst state of affairs. Waji knows this best. But Valudo was a bit of a problem, and looking at his furious appearance now, he must not be ready to listen to his own explanation. He sighed, and finally felt like he had tried his best to convince him.

"Isn't that interesting? Neither did the members of the Book Society say anything, nor did I cause trouble to the others. ”

"Boom!"

The ground that Vaji had stepped on before was shattered by Varudo's angry blow, and it was not difficult to see that this answer was not satisfactory to Varudo at all. If it weren't for Waji's fast flash, maybe one of his arms would have been smashed by him.

Valudo is serious.

"Bastard, are you serious? Haven't followed me Valudo yet? Uncle Vares, do you want to escape?! Do you think I can accept it?! ”

In Valudo's eyes, Waji is a coward, the worst coward.

These two people are the two overlords of the old city, and they have been fighting for many years, but in this battle, they gradually sprouted feelings of sympathy.

It was like the first time Lloyd saw the conflict between the two. The relationship between the two leaders is not too bad, but it is definitely not good, and they have been working hard to kill each other. The only one who can kill Waji is himself, and the only one who can kill himself is Waji. This is Varudo? The feeling of Vares. A feeling of longing for a soulmate.

The two have similar combat strength, similar identities, and are entrenched in close proximity, which is the best opponent. Valudo came back to be a bad boy because he was bored, and the appearance of Waji is undoubtedly the best condiment. And now, he's actually leaving?

It's as if if there were no dragons, then there would be no need for dragon-slaying swordsmanship. Valudo, as one of the most important targets of the leader of the Sword Serpent Gang, just disappeared.

A sense of emptiness.

It was once because of the emptiness that he would pick up a wooden knife and vent his violence to fill the emptiness. The appearance of Waji just made him feel no longer empty.

And now, Vaji's departure has also caused Varudo's emptiness, and it is ten, a hundredfold emptiness.

As You Tatsumi said, if you don't know happiness, then misfortune is not unhappiness. It was because Valudo understood how fulfilling and enjoyable it was to fight with Waji, that he could not accept Waji's departure.

Waji was silent.

From the blow just now, he fully understood Varudo's indignation. I also understand that this is my own problem.

However, Vaji couldn't smile and go back to the old town.

"Valudo, don't get excited!"

Lloyd hurried over to stop him, but Ellie leaned over while hesitating, "Well, there's a reason for this."

"Outsiders shut up for me!!"

Varudo swung his wooden knife wildly, he was already very powerful, and now he was extremely angry, and his strength was even stronger, forcing the two of them back at once. Vincent silently stood behind the two of them, preventing them from falling.

"Waji!"

Varudo's furious voice sounded like tears. The gloomy sky seemed to reflect his mood, and the rain was sprinkled.

"I don't know why you became a police officer...... But you don't think you'll get out of the old town intact! ”

As he spoke, Varudo stepped forward with two steps, and the Crusher struck Vaji in the head.

This is Varudo, the final redemption. This man, who only understands violence, desperately wants to redeem his fulfilling days with Waji. However, he understands nothing but violence.

"Varoudo ......"

Vaji whispered his opponent's name.

In fact, Waji himself also felt emptiness. However, I didn't do it without thinking about anything. He moved sideways with a light step, and his body was fast and weird.

Lloyd was stunned, although Waji had always fought with erratic pace and flexible punch and foot attacks, but the speed just now was completely beyond Lloyd's imagination.

How so? It's even more agile than Yu Tatsumi.

Waji ...... ...... the hell

"Valudo, this is normal, neither the Holy Book Society nor the Sword Serpent Gang have a permanent foothold, you understand?"

Vaji said as he dodged Varudo's attack. Even when he speaks during exercise, his voice is not hurried or slow, his breath is neither light nor heavy, and even his intonation has not changed, which shows the stability of his breath.

Varudo's strength surged, regardless of three-seven-twenty-one, brandishing a wooden knife and slashing frantically at Vaji. Alcohol makes him angry, makes him exert all his strength, and also makes his attack patterns simple and predictable.

There was a sad look on Waji's face. It was himself who forced Varudo into this situation.

"The reason why I founded the Holy Book Society."

He said as he dodged.

"Just to build a force to restrain your wanton behavior in the Old Town. The people of the Holy Book Society were weak at first, but now they have grown. Even if I leave, I will continue to fight against you. My mission has been accomplished. ”

Waji's words sounded like he was speaking to himself.

Forced by Varudo to be urgent, he unconsciously retreated to the wall, Varudo raised his knife and slashed head-on, but Vaji took advantage of this time to flash behind him from under his raised arm, and at the same time gently pushed him in the back, Valudo fell to the ground with a poof. The rain had gradually accumulated, and the dust on the ground had turned into silt and stuck to him, making him feel very embarrassed.

It's like a lonely wolf who has lost his family.

"Now my companions, one day I will leave the group and go to independence. Graduate from ignorance and find your own path. I believe they can do it. There's no such thing as a feast, right? ”

"Waji !!"

With a heart-rending sound, Varudo picked up the wooden bucket he was holding, which was supposed to be a bucket for a family's drinking water. Half of the water was so heavy that even Varudo had to lift it with both hands, and he smashed the murder weapon at Vaji like crazy.

"In this regard, you Sword and Snake Gang are the same, although most of the members are grumpy, they still have the courage to refuse the mafia's invitation, and they also have the courage to stand up for the Old Town. So, Varudo, you will surely find your way too. ”

Saying with ease, Vaji also easily caught the bucket thrown by Varudo with one hand. The flight trajectory was blocked, and the water in the bucket made a loud noise, as if it were blood flowing from a broken heart.

Waji's voice was somewhat pathetic. He held the bucket in one hand and gently placed it beside him.

Now, no matter how enthusiastic Varudo is, he understands Waji's abnormality.

Waji and Varudo are mortal rivals, and in the past three years, the two have fought more than 100 times? Both are well aware of each other's characteristics. Varudo is a man of great strength and clumsy body, while Vaji is a man of small strength and agility.

The bucket that Varudo could only lift with both hands, was easily lifted by him with one hand. The strength of these two people is immediately clear.

"What...... Could it be ...... You ......"

Varudo's eyes widened, scarlet bloodshot as a sign of the uncalmness in his chest.

"You guy! Have you been playing with me! ”

In the face of Varudo's angry cries, Vaji just looked at him with a sad face, and the rain inadvertently hit his bright yellow eyes, flowing down his cheeks like tears, and finally into the thin stream of water on the ground.

"Hmph...... Hahahahaha! I didn't expect it......"

Varudo was furious, his eyes were smiling, but his eyes were split.

"Enough! You guy...... Let this [Sanctuary] be stained, I won't just spare you! ”

In the face of Varudo's roar, Vaji lowered his head slightly, his green bangs blocked his expression, and raindrops condensed and formed on his bangs, and finally fell into the earth with crystals.

His voice was as calm as ever, as if nothing would change his tone.

"yes, I see."

Waji said so.

"Everyone, don't make a move. I have to do an understanding alone. ”

Lloyd looked at everyone, Vincent was too troublesome to see their farce at all, and yes, in the eyes of the former mafia, this kind of battle was too childish.

Ellie was a little worried, but more of a loss. The fighting power displayed by Waji was so terrifying that Ellie couldn't believe that this person was Waji.

Valudo slammed the ghost, and the water droplets crackled to the ground with a clear sound.

He tried his best to suppress his trembling voice, it wasn't fear, it wasn't like excitement, it was some unknown feeling.

"Waji...... I'm going to beat you down! Crush your limbs and break your ribs! Can't get up! So you can be a little more sober! ”

He issued a mournful declaration of war.

He only understands the way to use violence. So, he only understands how to use violence to get Waji to stay.

"Is that so...... Valudo, this time, I'll give it my all. ”

In the rain, the drenched green-haired boy announced so.

There is no need to say much.

It's like back then.

Varudo thought.

As long as you fight with all your might, as before, fight for a hundred and ten rounds, then Waji will definitely understand! It's okay to defeat him, or to be defeated by him, so that Waji can also recall the youth of the three years of fighting!

Needless to say! With the help of alcohol, Varudo strode forward with all his might, holding the knife in both hands, as if he was about to raise his face and slash, but in fact, he was indeed going to cut Waji's ribs sideways.

This is the secret technique that Varudo has been thinking about all this time.

With this, Waji will definitely be defeated!

Before he could finish the sentence in his mind, before the hand holding the knife could send a feedback force, Varudo's jaw felt pain first.

The body was fluttering and flew.

Vaji stepped on his out-of-the-knee knee and easily stopped his attack, blocking his wooden knife with his right hand and striking an uppercut with his left hand, sending Varudo flying his entire body.

Overwhelmingly poor combat effectiveness.

These two, from the very beginning, were not opponents of the same order of magnitude.

Poof!

Varudo fell to the ground, the knife flew out of his hand, drawing an arc, flying far away, Varudo wanted to stand up, but the knee that was stepped on by Vaji was extremely painful, and his jaw was the same, and the force penetrated into his whole body from these two places, making him unable to move.

"In the face of you today, I can only do my best. That's the highest sincerity I can show. ”

Waji said this, unable to see his expression or make out his tone. He indifferently announced Varudo's defeat.

"Waji...... You! Stop! I...... I haven't ...... yet Not! ”

Valudo tried his best to get to his feet, but the pain was so severe that he couldn't move.

Varudo's vision was full of dim sky, and in the field of vision blurred by the rain, a green-haired face suddenly broke in. He said, "Goodbye, Valudo. I've had a great time for the past two years. ”

With that, he turned and left Varudo's world.

Without a hint of nostalgia.

"Bastard, come back...... You give me back! I, I can still fight! ”

Valudo, who barely got up, was just about to grab Waji's arm, but his knee hurt again, and he fell to his knees. The water soaked down his pants, freezing to take away Varudo's body heat. He could only reach out to Waji's determined back, but in the end he didn't catch anything.

"It can't be! I, I absolutely can't accept it!! ”

The unwilling roar of the loser, Valudo? Vares burst into tears of shame.

"How can I allow you to leave here with that on your face!"

Just as Waji knew about Varudo.

Varudo, too, can understand Waji.

In previous battles, Waji's excitement.

And the empty expression on Waji's face just now.

Just as his own emptiness, so too does Waji.

Valudo tried his best to fill his boring heart with violence, only to discover that he had no qualifications in the first place.

The only one who can fight the tigers is the tigers. This is the reason why Varudo admires Waji, because Waji is the first person who can fight to a draw with Varudo.

However, it was only today that he realized that he was not a tiger at all, but just a defeated dog.

"Waji !!"

In the heavier and thicker rain, the lonely defeated dog let out an unwilling roar.

――――

Already leaving the Old Town, Varudo's roar was still heard.

Vaji stopped, and after a while, he turned around and gave everyone a bitter smile.

"Sorry for the strange scene. How can you say it, it's so impulsive, it doesn't look like me, right? ”

Lloyd shook his head, although he didn't understand what was going on, and he didn't understand why Waji had such a strong force, just about today's matter, he expressed his opinion: "No, how to say it, it feels a bit of a man's feeling, an all-out gesture." ”

Ellie nodded and agreed, "Someday, he'll understand." ”

Vincent snorted and didn't speak.

Looking at everyone, looking at his new partner, Waji smiled and turned his body back to them.

In the pouring rain, Waji's voice came.

"Thank you."

I don't know, to whom. tone, a little lonely. (To be continued.) )
