Squeak –

Accompanied by the sound of rain pouring outside the window, there was a slight noise in the door behind him.

Cream doesn't care about this.

He just sat there silently, looking at his missing ring finger, feeling the so-called "darkness" spreading in his heart......

Are you crazy?

Oh, yes...... I guess I'm crazy......

Because I'm crazy, that's why I want to attack ordinary people.

Because I'm really crazy, I have the kind of extreme thoughts that come to my mind from time to time.

Stone Blade......

The feeling of the Stone Blade is really wonderful......

Own Stone Blade...... They will give themselves strength...... will make yourself stronger...... Sometimes they whisper in their own ears...... Sometimes, I even feel that they speak like Raella......

Yes...... Raella ...... own fiancée......

Even after such a long time, hearing Raella's voice again will give me a very uplifting feeling......

Sometimes, every time I go out to complete a task, every time I hear the sound of the stone blade in my head, I feel like Rayla is by my side.

It's a really good feeling...... It's as if she never died...... It was as if her soul had been transformed into those two stone blades, fighting side by side with herself, and then she could ...... forever and ever. Together forever and ever......

But now, the Stone Blade is broken......

As time went on, it became more and more difficult for me to hear the sound of the stone blade......

Even if they can be heard sometimes, their voices are faint.

They...... I'm asking for help...... It's like Reyla is asking for help ...... herself!

It's like Reyla is asking herself...... Why didn't you save her at that time? Why leave her alone? Why was he able to continue to live after losing her?

Why......

yes, why?

Rilla is dead, why does she still have the face to live? And the stone blade with Raella's voice is also broken, why can he still shamelessly accept the new weapon? Accept those two...... Full of crazy words, belittleing their natural twin blades all day long?

Cream looked up, involuntarily looking at the two weapons on the table.

Both weapons were always there, not moving.

Oh, yes......

Raella ...... Stone Blade...... The voice in my own head is getting softer and softer. Every time the voice appears, it is a cry for help.

But...... But ah......!

The voices of these two natural double-edged blades are getting stronger and stronger, and they even start to argue with themselves about which mud tastes better, and which insects can cultivate better soil and plants after they die!

They keep going around in their heads, like the neighbor's aunt who spends her days talking about knowledge that is not nutritious and has no practical use. He would even ramble in his mind for a long time because of a new weed growing under the windowsill, as if the weed grew at his window and he should be responsible for it.

They...... Keep telling about the changes of the years. Tell about the smell of the wind in each day, and sigh at the temperature and humidity of the day. It tells about the life-and-death competition between those plants in spring, and the comfort of bathing in the strongest sunlight in the summer heat.

After that, the two weapons will also talk about the "sexy" and "astringent" between their plants and other topics with great interest, such as what kind of fruit should be more able to lure those animals to eat, how coveted the shape should be, etc., if it were not for the fact that they were talking about flowers and trees, sometimes Cream would really think that they were talking about the red light district of a certain street, and the adjective was really as obscene as it was.

Although Cream was irritated by the rambling of the two weapons in his head, he had hardly heard much about the state of winter. Maybe it's because they don't care? Or is there really nothing to talk about in winter?

At times, Cream also wants to get into the conversation between the two weapons as much as possible to keep them shut.

But these two weapons completely ignored themselves, and still spoke in their own minds. If you really think of something, you will immediately belittle yourself, scold yourself for two sentences, and there is no way to communicate at all.

So, irritability...... Only irritability.

With these never-ending irritability ......

On the contrary, I don't know when it started, and Cream gradually lost hearing the voices of Stone Blade and Raella.

"Whew!"

Suddenly, Cream felt a blow to the back of her head as if she had been hit with a hammer.

The force was so great that it even smashed him straight from his seat to the floor.

Pain...... Accompanied by struggle.

After struggling for a long time, Cream covered the back of her head with a faint pain, and quickly got up to check, but found that there was no one at the scene.

Be...... Delusion?

Cream was a little confused for a while.

Because the incessant rambling had made him a little unable to tell whether he was awake or crazy.

He rubbed the back of his head, and when it didn't hurt at all, a thought suddenly began to take shape in his mind.

The assassin turned his head and looked at the two weapons on the table again.

Strange to say, at this moment, the noisy voice in my head actually disappeared? Everything seemed very quiet, as if you were alone in the forest in the afternoon, and you could only feel the rustle of the leaves in the breeze, but other than that, everything seemed so peaceful......

Cream's left hand involuntarily covered his stomach.

It was the place where the president had been stabbed with a dagger.

Now, the wound has long since healed, and there is not even a single scar.

And the blade that had caused him serious injuries was still there.

After a few moments, the Assassin finally vomited, and as if he had made up his mind, he took off his coat with his backhand, wrapping the natural twin blades on the table and slung them over his shoulders.

Then, he quickly pushed open the door and went downstairs. After looking at the silent guild hall, he walked quickly to the guild's alchemy room.

Pushing open the door to the alchemy room, he looked at the large box that lay on the shelf.

What is placed here is Du Lengjia...... The kind of medicine that can get you over the pain.

But just as Cream's hand was about to reach for the box, a slight hesitation flashed across his face again. After a slight pause, his outstretched hand finally retracted. After a moment's hesitation, he turned his head and looked at another box next to him.

"Okay."

Taking a deep breath, he picked up the small box, closed the door to the alchemy room, and then ran out of the guild as if flying.

The rainy Pelican Town is still shrouded in darkness and tranquility.

Footsteps stepped over the puddles of stagnant water, splashing up a cloud of muddy water.

The elemental lights on either side flickered and flickered, sometimes even giving the impression that some terrible monster was preparing to burst out of the puddle with the extinguished lights.

As he ran, the assassin gasped for air.

His pace kept running towards the north, and it didn't take long for him to finally run out of Pelican Town, out of the town where the elemental lights were constantly flickering and flickering, and came to the huge mountain range of Eternal Sleep.

Huge mountains, standing in the darkness of the rain.

Cream, who let out a heavy breath, slowly stopped, raised his head, and looked up at the mountain in the darkness! In this darkness, the whole mountain range now seems to have been transformed, it no longer seems to be a high mountain, but an extremely large and terrifying monster, hiding its huge body in the darkness that cannot be seen directly, looking down on itself like a high mountain!

Looking down at ...... Such a small, insignificant human being......

"You...... Are you talking to me? ”

Suddenly, Cream spoke.

"It's not the sound of the natural twin blades talking to me...... Is that you? That exists...... Are you talking to me? Or is it ...... Am I really crazy? ”

The colossal (harmonious) thing in the darkness still lies there, conveying through the dark rain curtain the thoughts of only those who are deeply affected by their will.

Cream jerked the natural twin blades on his shoulders to the ground, clutched his head, and knelt in front of the great darkness.

Natural double-edged sound...... Still not showing up.

Those noisy, verbose, inconsequential voices that talk all day are now really completely silent, and there is no sound anymore!

Instead......

"Raella? Is Rella you, Raella?! ”

Cream jerked her head up, as if looking for someone right next to her, and kept looking around!

After a moment, he seemed to see something in the darkness, and the assassin stood up in excitement, his face lit up with joy! There was darkness in his eyes, and the smile on his face seemed more and more obsessive!

"Raella! It's really you! Are you safe and sound? How are you ...... How did you get out of danger? ”

"Is there a great being who saved you? That's great...... It's really great! You became the servant of that great being? That's nice...... If I also become a servant of the Great Being, will I be able to be with you? ”

Raella...... Raella, you're waiting for me, you're waiting for me......! I'll go with you now...... I'll ...... you now."

In the dark rain, something muddy gradually took shape and slowly moved towards the cream.

It was slow, it didn't look like a human, and it couldn't see clearly in the dark. But Cream seemed to be full of excitement when she looked at this dark substance, and her steps were even more forward!
