Chapter 22: Negative Escape

José grabbed one of Carette's hands, and he felt as if he had captured the truth he had been longing for. He scrutinized her face in great detail, and a bone-eating headache followed.

He endured and eagerly continued to ask.

"You're Karete......? What the hell happened to each other?"

José's anguish was so distressed that Carreta didn't know what to say.

"I'm sorry!"

She broke free from him, her trembling voice clearly with a crying tone, and she fled.

Running away, Carette collapsed on the side of the road. Her ability to withstand pressure has reached the limit, and she can no longer withstand any blows.

"Demos! Come out, you come out for me——!"

She screamed at the sky, knowing in her heart that everything that had just happened was under his control. At this moment, he must be hiding somewhere and snickering at her embarrassment.

"Why do you want to do this to me! Why do you ruin all my happiness! You're going too far—"

As she spoke, Kareta began to weep aloud.

"Didn't you say that love is never forsaken or turned away? I would like to see how long your love for this man will last?, Caretel, tell me by action how much courage your love will give you in times of adversity!"

Demos's gloomy voice rang out in the air.

"What the hell do you want!"

"Actually, the part of Jose's lost memories is with me, and as long as you are willing to come back and live with me, I will return the memories to him. ”

"You're so despicable!"

"Mean? Well said! I'm a demon by nature anyway! A vile demon in the truest sense of the word! haha..."

Perhaps stimulated by Karete's invective, he suddenly burst into laughter, but the laughter was full of desolation.

"Cry, cry, pour out all the pain in your heart! These things of yours are nothing compared to all that I have endured!"

"The god of darkness is the god of darkness, and only you can come up with such a brilliant bad idea!"

In the dark temple of another dimension, Cali looked at the sad and sad appearance of Careste in the crystal ball, and praised it with satisfaction.

"Erase the man's memories of Carret, she will be in pain when they see each other again, and the only way to get him back to normal is to throw herself into your arms. In this way, the man will become miserable because of the loss of his sweetheart. In any case, endless pain awaited both of them. Now, Carret, whom you have always hated......, has finally received the punishment she deserves!

Demos did not say a word, and there was not the slightest hint of happiness or satisfaction on his dark and watery countenance. After a moment of silence, he suddenly stood up and left, leaving Cali, who was still gloating, aside.

...

It began to rain in the sky over Athens, dripping like boundless sorrow.

Kamod walked slowly down the hotel steps with his suitcase. Listless, he lowered his head and let the drizzle wet his body.

Bai Xiu rushed to him with a black umbrella.

"Does it have to be like this? Where do you want to go?"

He himself felt a little funny as he questioned him. He can see through the other party's heart and is known as the "soul catcher", and for the first time in his life, he asked the other party questions.

Kamod shook his head numbly, his face wet. Can't tell which is rain and which is tears.

"I... It's no longer possible to face Karete. I can't get her to love me, and I can't stop her from continuing to play with fire, the only thing I can do... The only way to get away from her is to get as far away from her as possible. ”

Bai Xiu didn't know what to say, so he had to watch as Kamod's distant figure became smaller and smaller, until he was drowned in the curtain of water in the night...

Excited, Kareta burst into Persew's room.

Just now, as soon as she rushed back to the hotel, she knocked on the door of Zhamod's room, but was surprised to find that the person who opened the door was replaced by a gray-haired old man.

"Why did 603 get new guests?

As soon as she entered the room, she kept asking.

"He's gone, and he doesn't know where he's gone. ”

Bai Xiu's calm answer surprised her, and it took a while for her to react: "Don't... No kidding, how could you not know where he is. ”

"You're wrong, Karete," Bai Xiu said bluntly, "I really can't see through his inner world this time. To be honest, I've never been in a situation like this before. If it hadn't been too stimulated, that guy's heart would never have been so blank. ”

“... It's all my fault, it's me who hurt my brother..."

Bai Xiu stepped forward and faced her very seriously.

"Karete, do you remember what I said to you on the Holy Mountain the night before I came to the Human World?"

Seeing that she was speechless, he could only shake his head helplessly.

"You only remember the promise you made to Hector, and you forgot what you promised me... Karette, your love is too deep and too persistent. Now it seems that maybe it was my fault in the first place, and I shouldn't have put that pressure on you. ”

Gentle and moderate language, and the usual graceful and kind smile, all made Karet's heart feel more unbearable torment than being blamed. She couldn't hold back any longer, hiding her face and crying.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's all my fault, but I really can't live without him! Bai Xiu, you scold me, beat me, please stop being gentle with me. I'm so uncomfortable right now, really uncomfortable!"

The sharp gaze finally fell silent, and the feigned smile also disintegrated, replaced by infinite compassion.

Bai Xiu approached the weeping girl and put her head on his shoulder, her mournful murmur in his ear.

"Am I not the 'messenger of love and light', who has fulfilled countless infatuated children in the world? However, when I wanted to love, I loved so painfully and so tiredly. Why, what went wrong..."

The pouring out of words and sentences clearly knocked on Bai Xiu's heart, bringing him a strong shock.

What went wrong? He could not reply.

It can be said that in this incident, Karetben was not directly at fault. Even if she had to be held accountable, she shouldn't be responsible for everything—

Cause and effect in this world have always liked to happen without warning. Therefore, there is no reason for anyone to blame the other party!

"Fool, why do you want to love a man you can't love! Why bother..."

Bai Xiu sighed sadly, and the girl's body in the crook of his arm was hugged tighter.

Outside the window, the rain was pouring in, like a series of discordant notes, accompaniment to Carret's mournful cry.
