The gentle light failed to rise from the end of the sea level, and the White Tide was overtaken by a storm, and the majestic rain and thunder hovered over the sea.

It was already daytime, but everything in the world was still gray, and it was as if I had returned to the old Dunling in a trance.

But the people on board were not alarmed, the ballroom was playing, and people were walking through the restaurant with wine glasses in hand, celebrating the new day, as if no matter how the outside world changed, it could not stop the revelry inside the ship.

Lorenzo came to his senses at some point, and he left Watson's [gap] and returned to this place, on the White Tide.

Look through the window at the boiling ocean under the heavy rain.

"Where are you now? Watson. Lorenzo asked.

"I'm right here. ”

The voice sounded in his ears, and the invisible presence floated around Lorenzo like a ghost, Lorenzo could not see her, but he could really feel her presence.

"Do you know what to do next?"

Watson walked behind Lorenzo, who could feel a pair of cold palms caressing his cheeks.

"At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if Lawrence is really dead or not, if one Lawrence dies, there will always be a second Lawrence. ”

Lorenzo recalled the pitch-black mask, a scorching light boiling in the deep darkness.

"What I want to destroy is all those who try to abuse the Secret Blood, and even destroy all traces of the Secret Blood in this world, and completely isolate humanity from the darkness. ”

Lorenzo didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong, no one could tell him all this, he had to try it himself, and then bear the consequences of it all himself.

If Lorenzo can build a wall that separates everyone from being exposed to darkness and is discovered by evil demons, can he protect everyone?

He was like a shepherd, building a strong fence to keep the lambs in it and avoid being devoured by the wolves.

"Watson, where are you?"

Lorenzo asked again.

"I'm right here. ”

Watson repeated again that she was a void at the moment, without a substance, so Lorenzo could only feel her, but not visually, she thought Lorenzo was looking for herself, but Lorenzo shook his head.

"The entity that is now at your disposal, where is it. ”

Watson fell silent.

The void entity needs a carrier, and Lorenzo's [gap] has the beacon Watson left behind, so she can travel a long distance to reach Lorenzo's side, but she will have to go back.

"Are you silent and don't want to tell me, or are you doing something terrible, something you don't want me to know?"

There was no voice to answer, if it weren't for the fact that Lorenzo could still feel Watson's presence, otherwise what he was doing now was like a psychopath talking to himself.

It's actually pretty much the same.

"I'm making a new attempt, and I don't know what's going to happen next. ”

Watson finally spoke.

"A very risky temptation?"

Lorenzo asked, knowing very well that Watson's situation was far more dangerous than his own, and that she had gone deeper into the darkness than he had to reach the [boundary].

"Yes, the purpose of Orthodoxy is clear to you, if they really succeed......"

"I'm not going to let them succeed. ”

Lorenzo denied.

With some hesitation in his voice, Watson continued.

"We're going to prepare for the worst, Lorenzo, and you know very well that there is no absolute good or absolute good in this world, just a muddy gray," said Watson, "and in the end, we are all wicked, hopelessly wicked. ”

"So you're doing what's a backup plan now?" asked Lorenzo.

This time no one answered him, the window was opened by someone who didn't know who had opened it, the cold wind carried the rain into the room, and the curtains shook violently.

Watson left.

In the distant land, the man slowly rose from the bench, he looked like a traveler, a dusty man.

He rubbed his head, trying to soothe the pain, and the long-distance [gap] shuttle would bring some burden.

There were pious voices praying, it was the believers, and they were one after the other, gathering into a holy wave, and the corners of the streets were covered with red candles, and the gentle light reflected on the idols.

Watson was familiar with the scenery in front of her, and she had a feeling that she couldn't put it into words.

She used to echo in the streets like this, discussing things that were not worth mentioning with her friends, and it was a beautiful time when everything was a warm color......

But now was not the time to miss it, she took control of the man's body, raised her head, and looked at the blurred shadow behind the heavy structure.

It was a magnificent church, like a mountain.

The bell rang and Watson walked towards the Basilica of San Nalo, where she had many things she wanted to ask the new pope herself.

For example, why is he being targeted by the Silencer, and has he really crossed the border?

And also...... Who is he under the mask?

......

Lorenzo pushed the door open, rubbing his face vigorously before heading out, making his expression look less depressed.

At the end of the day, these things are not clear to anyone else, and Lorenzo doesn't need to put so much pressure on them.

Walking into the living room, Lorenzo's footsteps stopped.

Irene was sitting on the couch, she was awake, but there was an extra bandage on her head, and Lorenzo remembered that when he left, her head was not injured.

"Torture?"

Lorenzo asked suspiciously.

"How could it be!

The kestrel on the side explained loudly.

He didn't know how many times he had explained in such a short period of time, but a few hours earlier, Erin had woken up and fallen down again, followed by the kestrel calling the ship doctor.

After that, Eve rushed over.

"You beat you?" asked Eve.

In Eve's eyes, the kestrel is very suspicious, after all, to a certain extent, the kestrel can be regarded as being played with by someone and doing something strange, and Eve is not surprised.

Kestrel explains that she fell on her own, but Eve looks at the unconscious Erin and doesn't think Kestrel is telling the truth.

Then, after Hybod returned from patrolling the corridors, the kestrel explained again.

When the ship's doctor arrived, the kestrel explained again.

And then there's the present.

In fact, Kestrel didn't understand why he was obsessed with explaining this, probably because he didn't want to be thought of as a strange guy by others, but since he joined the purification agency, he didn't care about such strange stares for a long time.

I don't know why, but now he's at a loss again.

"I fell on my own, stop teasing Mr. Moon. ”

Erin said slowly, her voice a little weak, but still smiling.

Lorenzo looked at her, the woman was still in a bad state, but at least she was alive. Even though she was already so weak, Hypard tied her hands and feet.

"Mr. Moon?"

Lorenzo asked again, even more confused about the name.

"Moon Naredo. ”

Kestrel walked over quickly, looking dissatisfied, and he reached out and shook Lorenzo together, as if he had made a new friend.

"I remember mentioning my name to you. The kestrel was upset that Lorenzo had forgotten his name.

Hearing the kestrel say this, Lorenzo suddenly remembered.

His first encounter with the kestrel was on the demon-filled train.

"Oh oh oh!"

Lorenzo let out a rooster crow, trying to ease the embarrassment of forgetting his teammate's name.

"You're big!" the kestrel howled.

"I rarely mention the name because I had a bunch of bastards who made fun of me when I was a kid. Kestrel said.

"What's so funny about that. ”

Erin asked, no one knew what kind of magic this woman had, and she just blended into the atmosphere so inexplicably.

"They always say, "Moon, moon!" in that funny voice...... Actually, I don't know what's funny about it, anyway, no one has mentioned it since I beat them up. ”

Kestrel continued, and then he screamed at Erin as if he were an afterthought.

"Wait, what's going on with you!"

"Me?"

Erin's hands were tied together, and she tried to point at herself, but she couldn't move.

"Yes, you're a captive! If you don't talk well, you'll be thrown straight into the sea through the window!" Kestrel pointed to the open window, he was very unhappy with Irene's calm attitude, "You are doing this as if you are your own person!

Regardless of the kestrel calling, Erin laughed.

"Alas, I really didn't expect to meet you here, is this fate?

Erin looked into the kestrel in the eye and deliberately emphasized the "moon".

In that cozy afternoon, Kestrel liked to call him that, and kept calling Kestrel Kestrels, many times he forgot who he was, and when he was called the moon, he had a special peace of mind.

But now it's different, she's Erin, not Gloria, she's a bad guy with a bad brain.

Hearing Erin call herself so emphatically, Kestrel felt like someone was being teased, and when he thought back to that afternoon, he felt like a clown.

Presumably at that time, Erin was also holding back a smile and trying to trick herself, what hell fishing, what knight, what damn resonance, it was all the disguise of the woman in front of her.

As Haybold said, this is a guy who is very good at confusing men, and she has already known her preferences in advance and prepared herself in advance...... I naively thought that I had really met some so-called bosom friend, and I went back with the fish like a fool.

In an instant, a nameless anger rose in the kestrels, he had never been an irritable fellow, but now he was thinking of something extremely cruel.

But before he could have a seizure, Lorenzo stopped him, walked over, and sat down across from Irene.

"Erin Adler. ”

Lorenzo looked at the frail woman in front of him and pronounced her name.

"Lorenzo Holmos. ”

Erin knew the identity of the man in front of her and replied with a smile.

At this time, everyone in the room felt the change in the atmosphere, and if they were still laughing just now, they are now in the middle of the conversation, and everyone is serious.

Hybold stood to the side and stared coldly, while Kestrel clutched his pillow, which felt terrible, and the anger he had just ignited was pressed back by Lorenzo, and he couldn't get a seizure.

Eve remained silent, this was her first time experiencing difficult work, and what she saw and felt was part of her internship.

As for the soon-to-be-forgotten one, Hercule looked at the ceiling and felt a desolate tear welling up in his churning stomach.

......

"It's not the first time we've met. ”

Others may not be able to perceive it, but with the enhanced senses of the witcher, Lorenzo can smell the fragrance clearly.

"Winchester, I tried to entrust you with the work, but declined," Irene generously admitted, and she looked around before adding, "but now it's not much different from what I wanted to entrust you." ”

"What did you want to entrust me with?"

Lorenzo asked if these successive encounters were definitely not a coincidence, and he wondered why.

"I want to entrust you with rescuing a friend of mine, Ivar. ”

Erin said.

The atmosphere was silent all of a sudden, it can be said that the cause of the incident was because of Ivar, and it was Erin in front of her who caused the current situation, but now she said that she wanted to save Ivar.

"You guy, you don't deserve that name!"

In a rare display of his rage, Haybold lashed out at Erin.

It was only then that Erin noticed Haypard's presence, and he had been standing behind Erin, who was trapped in her blind spot.

"Hybod?"

Erin heard the familiar voice, and her expression changed slightly for a moment, which Lorenzo observed with precision.

Lorenzo remembered seeing Erin at night, and even though she was on the verge of death, she still maintained her sense of composure, as if even if death was there, she would ask the god of death to give her some time to make up her makeup.

But the moment she heard Haypard's voice, Erin's calm appearance collapsed, and she was rarely a little panicked, even frightened.

The expression lasted only for a short time, and if Lorenzo hadn't been staring at her, he would have barely noticed.

"Long time no see. ”

Erin said, and she changed back to her previous self.

"Please give me some time, Haybod. ”

Lorenzo looked at Hybold behind Erin, and so did Hybord, the Viking who hadn't shown any anger all the way, but just now he was like an angry bear.

It seems that the relationship between the two is more than what it seems, and Lorenzo wonders what else Hybod is hiding from him.

"Rescue Ivar?"

Lorenzo repeated Erin's words again, looking a little confused.

"So how the hell did you find me? ”

Lorenzo had so many questions about this woman.

"You were faster than the North Dro and the Purification Agency, and you found me before everyone else, hoping that I could help you, and at that time I guess you were already being hunted down by the Iron Law Bureau, and you alone were able to do so, how did you get my information?"

Irene had expected Lorenzo's question, and she laughed.

"I'll tell you everything to thank you for saving my life, but before that, can you help me loosen it?" she held up her hand, "It feels uncomfortable to be tied......

Before the words fell, the cold sword light swept through, as if a cold wind swept over his hands, the rope that bound him broke, and the sudden release made Erin can't help but hang her hand down.

Opposite her, Lorenzo gently put the folding knife aside, he had absolute force and absolute power.

"Go on. Lorenzo said.
