This is a lonely world, with a hopeless ice field beneath their feet, and the dark blue water surging under the thick ice, and there seems to be something else in the darkness, but because of the obstruction of the ice, they can only powerlessly stir the cold surface, mixing the strange sound of friction with the cold wind.

The stars converge into a galaxy that sweeps through the night sky, spreading from one part of the horizon to the other, taking up all of the view.

Lorenzo looked at the figure with his back to the full moon, and countless emotions welled up in his heart, but in the end he could not say anything, and just looked at each other from a distance, until the man came to him and sat down on the lonely bench.

"Don't you think it's like an artist's absurd dream?"

He sat down casually, his shabby trench coat didn't look warm at all, but he didn't seem to feel the cold, judging the world casually.

It's a world in the gap, in the space between life and death, and everything is so desolate except for the two of them at this moment.

"Probably...... At least I think it's pretty good. ”

Lorenzo thought for a moment and sat back on the bench, the two facing the full moon rising below the horizon as easily as sitting in a park watching wild dogs chase squirrels.

"By the way, what should I call you now, do I call you Lorenzo or what? ”

The man smiled slightly.

"Lorenzo...... To be honest, I don't like it. ”

Lorenzo didn't bother to show any shyness or other emotions, the whole person was cold.

"I know, after all, who knew that you would actually take this name in my honor, and you obviously planned to remember it, but you found that the person who should be remembered is not dead. ”

"Ah, I understand this feeling too well, ashamed to death!"

The man was so happy that he was talking about it from all angles.

But then everything calmed down, Lorenzo was not happy at the hellish joke, he took a deep breath, as if he was suffering from heart-rending pain, and his resolute eyes were filled with sadness at some point.

"I remember that you died, and I killed you with my own hands. ”

Lorenzo was the first to break the silence in the long silence, he didn't look at the man, he just stared deadly ahead, the full moon was so huge and bright, as if it had risen from under the surface of the sea, and the huge crater on the surface of the glow was faintly visible.

Lorenzo remembered that the astronomers had said that the craters were left behind by an asteroid impact, but it seemed to him that they were shriveled eye sockets one after another, and perhaps there were once huge pupils there, only to be gouged out by unknown forces.

"Oh oh, oh, I almost forgot if you didn't mention it? ”

The man didn't care about Lorenzo's emotions at all, and said with some joy, he lifted the black trench coat, and the chest under it was bloody bones, no flesh, as if he had been attacked by a ghoul, and all the organs and even the heart were gnawed away.

"How does it taste like me? I've always felt like I'm a vanilla cake type. ”

Like a salesman asking a customer if his meat is good, a large part of Lorenzo's nervousness comes from this bastard.

"You know, you were eating so ugly at the time, crying and gnawing at the same time, and you were smacking. ”

Yes...... I really want to tear this neuropathy alive.

Lorenzo gave him a blank look, when Neuropathy met another, more neuropathic person, there was always an indescribable sense of powerlessness, usually Lorenzo tortured others, but here he was torturing himself.

"So you say here? What is that. ”

"Literally, of all things. ”

The man covered the abominable wound and spoke slowly.

"The Order has been studying things on a spiritual level, namely...... Soul. The alchemists divided things into four elements, but on top of them there were souls associated with life. ”

He turned his head, and it was a face that was somewhat similar to Lorenzo's, but different.

The man is a very optimistic person, so optimistic that even if he dies, he still can't calm down, and even if he is thrown with the demons, he may pull those terrible creatures to tell bad jokes together.

"Like the connection we are familiar with, the connection with the darkness, Lorenzo, have you ever wondered what the deepest part of the connection is?"

"The deepest?"

Lorenzo shook his head, he didn't know much about this, what was in the deepest part of it, it seemed to him that it was probably endless demons and the erosion that killed people in an instant.

"Yes, that's what the Order is going to study in the later stages, what's in the deepest part of the connection? All experiments have a hypothesis, an assumption about something. ”

Lorenzo seemed to think of something, he asked.

"That's right? The deepest part of the connection, you name it. ”

"Worthy of my successor, you guessed it. ”

The man was delighted by Lorenzo's quick thinking, and he clapped his hands with joy.

"So...... After all, you died six years ago, and as a dead man you were happily telling me that the two of us were in the deepest part of our relationship, and while I don't know exactly what was going on here, it wasn't a place to come whenever you wanted, did you? ”

Lorenzo felt that he might be dead, but he felt a sense of relief, and he also collapsed on the bench, looking at the Milky Way running through the night sky overhead, and suddenly felt that the view of the world after death was not bad.

"You're not dead, my friend, it stands to reason that no living person can arrive, but there is something special, like us. ”

The man put his arms around Lorenzo as he spoke, and in the cold air he could smell the faint smell of blood, from the man's hideous wounds.

"I died then, and I was here when I woke up again, and sometimes I can sense your presence but not see you, just like we know, the connection to the darkness, our world is overlapping, but I can't observe your world.

Until today, your connection to the darkness has reached its deepest depths, and I finally saw you, so I dragged you over as soon as I forced. ”

The man waved his hands as he spoke, and he made a gesture of dragging hard.

"Did you know that I was fighting a Michael witcher before I came here? He had broken through the threshold, and the pure flames were enough to melt steel, and I might have been burned to death in the time I spoke to you. ”

The emotion of the reunion has almost been consumed by the man's, Lorenzo said coldly.

"Huh? That's pretty sorry. ”

The man apologized, but Lorenzo could not see any remorse on his face.

"There's still too much secret, I don't know, but at least we've proven it exists. ”

Another useless message, Lorenzo's eyes were slightly cold, looked at him, and asked coldly.

"What about you? What's the matter with you, you're long dead, so are you my hallucination at this moment, or is it some so-called soul?"

It's a weird place, weird things, weird everything.

The man didn't think it was a big deal, he thought for a moment, then pointed to the ice field beneath his feet.

"I'm probably the same as it, just like six years ago, we still couldn't kill it, but we managed to trap it, you're the last person in the world to remember its existence, so it lives in your memory, and as long as you don't spread its message, it's stuck in your memory forever.

It stands to reason that I am dead, but there is a part of it that is caught in it, and when you trap it, part of my consciousness is also trapped here, so I am alive to this day. ”

The man is colorful.

"In other words, I am really dead, and in front of you is only a remnant of memories, a lonely ghost who does not belong anywhere. ”

This is a sad story, as the ice began to tremble as the man's words began, and the friction sound mixed with the wind became louder and louder, Lorenzo didn't even have time to grieve for him, so he subconsciously moved to prepare to attack, but was held by the man.

"Don't worry, it can't escape, it's going to toss around every day for so many years. ”

As if admiring some kind of view, the man sat steadily on the bench and watched as the ice cracked beneath his feet and a huge amount of water rushed up from underneath.

"This may be the last comfort from God, and although everyone is almost dead, it is indeed nice to still see it in pain every day. ”

Lorenzo listened silently to the words, the blue beneath his feet erupted, countless dry arms piercing out of the sea, imprisoned in chains, longing for fresh air, and then whimpering.

Scratching at the smooth ice with its palm, it tried to climb up, but it was all in vain, leaving deep scratches on the ice and falling into the deep sea again.

How many people are there?

Hundreds of them tried to escape from the cold ice, but no one could.

The heavy iron lock spread from the end of the deep sea to the top, and its figure gathered like a school of fish, and finally turned into a pitch-black orca that crashed through the glacier and leaped high, countless faces overlapping together into a hundred demons, and the strange darkness under the full moon was clearly visible.

The sound of the tide swept in, and Lorenzo saw that the terrible whale of a hundred faces brought up a white tide like a waterfall, but then the low temperature froze everything, and it still could not escape from this sea of ice, standing like a sculpture above the desolation, and the next moment everything crumbled, shattering into fine snowflakes, dragged by the wind, the chaotic white swallowed everything.

The man did not panic in the slightest, as if he was watching a performance that he had seen countless times, and now that the song was over, the audience should sit firmly in their chairs and wait for the end of the show, so he clapped his hands and applauded this death that had been repeated many times.
