Chapter 138 - The first step
Very decisively, Zuo Chen swung the blue sword again, and then stabbed the sword into his heart.
With a muffled snort, Zuo Chen's health returned, the energy bar took its place, and the energy reached 90 in an instant.
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts like never before.
This was Zuo Chen's fifth time in the realm of death, and this time he felt the pain very clearly, far more painful than the previous four times.
It was as if every time he entered death he added a certain amount of pain, and this time he reached a tipping point that he could bear.
This time it was a major mistake on Zuo Chen's part, just thinking of using the pain to divert attention in order to suppress desire, but he forgot an important point.
The pain tormented him and ignited his desires.
Ah, it's so hot, I feel like my body is burning, I want to eat Devil Fruits. No. No, it can't go on like this.
Under the double torture of pain and desire, Zuo Chen was about to lose himself. I knew that I was planted, and I was entrusted.
Not daring to hesitate at all, while he could still maintain a trace of clarity, he hurriedly drank the life recovery potion at hand, and then went directly to take a shower.
The cold water rinsed his body, and as time gradually passed, the fiery restlessness in Zuo Chen's body not only did not come down, but became more and more irrepressible.
It was visible to the naked eye that the water on Zuo Chen's body had evaporated into heat, and he himself didn't feel anything except the heat.
I really want to eat the fruit.
No, hold back.
Just once, just once.
No, you can't do it once, just eat it and it's over.
But I want to eat, I want to eat, I want to eat!
"Ah~~~"
Zuo Chen let out a roar, his body and mind began to stop talking, he underestimated the allure of the Devil Fruit, and overestimated his own willpower.
Kyoko said that since ancient times, there have been many heroes and heroes, people with tenacity and outstanding willpower, and they can't help but let alone themselves after eating Devil Fruits.
Laughing at himself, Zuo Chen closed the door, locked it, and then sat weakly behind the door.
Sometimes he hugged his head with a painful expression, sometimes scratched his body frantically, sometimes reached out to pick the lock and wanted to go out in search of the Devil Fruit, and fought with desire all the time.
It's just that whenever he can't hold on, he thinks of the tree demon, the tree demon who brought him all the misfortunes, so he naturally thinks of Sima Ye, every time he is forced into a desperate situation by the tree demon, Sima Ye desperately saves him.
Relying on his hatred for the Tree Demon, Zuo Chen persisted for a long time, and whenever he recalled the suffering caused by the Tree Demon, an aura of despair would emanate from his body and mind.
And at this time, he will fall into despair and cannot extricate himself, and even his desire will be suppressed unconsciously.
Whenever Zuo Chen fell into despair, Sima Ye's figure would appear in his mind, and her heroic posture of slashing the tree demon with one sword dispelled the despair in Zuo Chen's heart.
He was fascinated by that powerful fanaticism, and he wanted to be so strong, this was how he felt at the beginning, but I don't know when this feeling changed.
The feeling that Sima Ye brought to him changed, and the original worship turned into wanting not to be protected by her and wanting to fight with her.
Now as long as he stays by Sima Ye's side or looks at her, Zuo Chen will be very relieved, unprecedented peace of mind, and it is this peace of mind that helped him persist when he thought of Sima Ye.
"Haha!ha!"
Time passed little by little, and Zuo Chen only felt that every minute and every second passed so slowly. He didn't know how long it was, only that it was his victory, that he had survived the most difficult moments, and that he couldn't help his desires.
Although desire still affected his spirit from moment to moment, it was harmless, and the remaining temptation was no longer enough to change his will.
"Hahaha, I won, and in the end I won. ”
How comfortable the mood is, overcoming the impossible self, and taking the first step in the future.
The door opened, Sima Ye quietly walked in, and before she could reach the bedroom, she heard the sound of running water.
"Chen'er is already up?" she sat down in the living room and waited with a question in her heart.
I just waited for a long time, but the sound of running water still did not stop, and I did not hear any sound other than the sound of running water.
Realizing this, Sima Ye stood up with a bang, and then came to the door.
"Chen'er?" Seeing that Zuo Chen was not on the bed, she called softly.
However, she couldn't hear any response, and in connection with what happened yesterday, Sima Ye thought a lot for a while, and she hurriedly opened the door only to find that the door was locked from the inside.
"Chen'er! Chen'er!!"
I had no choice but to call Zuo Chen and knock the door.
"Night Night ~ Sister?"
Soon, a weak voice penetrated into Sima Ye's ears, even if he didn't look at Zuo Chen's current appearance, Sima Ye could think of his pale and haggard face.
Pretending to be calm, Sima Ye pretended not to know anything.
"Chen'er, it's time to get up. I'll be waiting for you in the living room. ”
"Hmm!"
It was still a weak voice, and for some reason, Sima Ye left tears, perhaps because he thought of Zuo Chen's experience and felt empathy.
A minute later, Zuo Chen walked out of the bedroom, her pale hair and pale face were exactly what Sima Ye thought, and even her expression evoked her memories.
It's like when my sister wasn't bullied when she was a child, and she realized that something was wrong, she refused to say no matter how she asked, the reason was simply that she didn't want to worry too much.
"Then~ let's go quickly!" Sima Ye quickly turned around and strode forward.
After gathering, they hurriedly finished eating, and the group headed towards the Tree Demon Forest.
Like yesterday, Sima Ye arranged Zuo Chen as a guardian, but unlike yesterday, today's Zuo Chen is even more worrying.
Pale face, weak look, absent-minded look.
"Chen'er, what's wrong with you, didn't you sleep well last night?" After the first battle, Xiao Chun came to Zuo Chen.
Her face is full of distress, like a little angel who can't see someone in pain, and once she sees it, she can't help but want to help you and comfort you.
Moreover, she also has a special ability to feel your mood whenever she is around, no matter how much you hide it.
Now, Zuo Chen is facing such a threat.
"Hmm!" Zuo Chen nodded lightly in acknowledgement, hoping that the topic would be over.
However, Xiao Chun never gave up easily.
"But, I always think Chen'er, what are you patient?" she said, her eyes still so sharp.
"Of course I'm too tired, I want to rest but I can't!" Zuo Chen looked tired.
Originally, staying with Xiao Chun was a relaxing and healing thing, but in this way, he was even more tired than usual.
You can't ignore it, you can't talk about it casually, and you have to try to make up a lie that looks perfect. Take a look at the latest chapter of "Super Dimensional Ruins Claw Book House" to read for free for the first time.
