BGM: Bad Cold (Storm in the Absolute Garden)

"I... ”

G sniffed his nose and smelled a strong burnt smell.

The scene in front of me gradually regained focus.

"Here it is... ”

In a trance, G remembers that he had a dream.

It was such a dream that it was so long that what happened in it encompassed him for the rest of his life.

What does it feel like to live again as a spectator?

Will it be boring?

Will the pain and suffering you have experienced be lessened a little?

G doesn't remember much about his feelings, and after all, it's already strange that he dreams because of his body structure that doesn't dream.

I can't remember it afterwards, and that's nothing.

A dream is a dream, reality is reality, and there is no intersection between the two.

But why? It feels so much more refreshing.

It's like throwing away the burden that has been on your back since birth.

Relaxed.

Comfortable.

"You... Awake?"

A faint sound came to mind.

Someone?

G came back to his senses and gradually remembered what he had been doing.

I'm fighting F. And then.. What happened halfway through? Why am I dreaming?

G's eyes widened.

"What-"

A large hole was opened in F's chest, and G was shocked to find his right hand sinking deep into it, his palm unconsciously tightening, grasping a broken vertebrae, and piercing through F's back.

"What else. That's the question I want to ask you... ”

F squinted his eyes, looking like he was out of breath and out of breath and in.

There wasn't much blood coming out of the huge wound on his chest, like a real doll. But the center of his body has been destroyed, and now only the ability to communicate remains.

F's limbs were gone, leaving only a rough fracture, as if it had been twisted by something with tremendous force.

G looked around, the labyrinth was gone, and everything was in a mess.

"Before you, completely lost consciousness. ”

"Completely berserk, the level of energy in that state has surpassed me by a hundred times. ”

"Is it possessed by something? But I didn't sense the thoughts of the third person. ”

F calmly narrated that his previous obsessive and crazy face had vanished, leaving only an ordinary dying man.

“。。。 ”

G looked at F and didn't speak, he was judging whether he was in a fantasy or not.

After thinking about it, G also denied this unrealistic possibility.

If it were a person with a bad personality like F, it would be absolutely impossible to create this kind of illusion, and the positions of the two should be reversed.

"Are you suspicious of me? No need, I'm dying now. ”

F's face was expressionless, and even though he had lost too much blood, his complexion was still sallow, which was the luster of wood rather than human skin.

F is not a purebred human.

G knows this, and even though F has many humans made into avatar puppets, his body is still an unknown humanoid.

"Are you sure I beat you?"

G hesitated.

He has absolutely no memory of this time!

So who was already in a coma, couldn't it be that he relied on his body's instinct to kill this lifelong enemy?

That's impossible.

"You're a little bit out of your mind at that point. ”

F saw through G's question at a glance.

"G, I don't know what you saw in my Hell Turns to get into that state. In short, one of the 100 Views of Hell inspires you to go beyond a certain mode of imminent combat. ”

"You become unconscious, you give up on defense altogether, you just attack. ”

"In the end, you were burned to the ground in Hell Turned. ”

"Huh?!"

G has a "you're kidding me" expression.

The stout giant man pulled his right hand from F's wound and threw his stump to the ground.

"Are you still thinking of me as an idiot?"

"Be quiet, listen to me. ”

F, who was roughed up, did not die immediately, he neither coughed up blood nor lost consciousness, calm and sane.

"Halfway through when I took Hell and made sure you were dead, you came back to life. ”

"Some of the dust that flew in the sky regathered and reconstituted your body. ”

F gave him a meaningful look.

"In the report a year ago, you said that you had lost your highly specialized self-healing ability and lost your immortality due to an accident. ”

"But after this, the organization discovered that your body was far more alive and energetic than before, so it arranged for you to come to me. ”

"In the past year, your hard power has grown to an unbelievable level, and I have seen all of this. But.. Only immortality has been completely lost. ”

"I originally thought you had regained your abilities, but you just had something to hide, as your hole card, but now it seems... It doesn't seem like that. ”

G had a blank look on his face.

"I really didn't know I was able to recover this. ”

"I'm unconscious!"

A cold glint flashed in G's eyes.

Although the man in front of him is the target of his own mission to clear, the condition of the body is obviously more important.

What do you mean when I'm unconscious, it's as if something else is controlling me?!possession?What are you kidding?!

G remembers the days when he was once controlled by "butterflies".

After that incident, G returns to EVE for his collaboration with Extinguished, who helps him cover up the fact that he is out of control.

G is focused on training, and even teamed up with a strong senior like F.

However, these are nothing compared to freedom.

After breaking free from the control of "Butterfly", G indulged in an indescribable sense of relief from him. Because of this, any threat that could bring him back to his former self is considered the greatest enemy and needs to be uprooted and destroyed immediately!

For a while, even the so-called tasks became less important.

"Is it like this? Even you don't know, so I don't know. ”

F was silent.

“。。 In that state, you may be no different from lighting a candle. ”

"However, in you now, I don't feel that boundless destructive power and will. ”

"Is that the ability to be time-limited? or when you lose consciousness and your vital signs are completely gone. ”

"It's really... I'm getting a little angry. ”

"What?"

G didn't react for a moment.

"Originally... Originally, we would not have such emotions as anger. ”

"But you ruined all my paintings, my work, my children, my life's work. ”

And the reason is simply because ... You fainted?"

"Hehehe. Hahahahaha!"

"It really is. . . What are you kidding? ”

F laughed.

His expressionless face suddenly distorted, turning in an inhuman direction.

"That's it. Angry?"

"Hate ... ”

In G's field of vision, the other party's face is exactly the same as the self-destructing paper man seen in "Deep Sea".

"So, I've also answered for you, how much should be satisfied, right?"

"You know what. I've been waiting for you to wake up, waiting for you to come to your senses and feel it for yourself ... ”

"Come and come with me on the road——"

F's expression, the words were frozen in this moment.

G could clearly feel that the other person's heart had stopped.

At the same time, a sense of unprecedented threat hit me.
