Professional Hero Sephiroth[Comprehensive]

After Tifa settled down, the crowd outside had dispersed.

Sephiroth stood behind the window in the corridor on the second floor, looking at the street below. He didn't turn around until he heard the sound of closing doors and footsteps behind him: "I put your magic stone on the table."

"I see, thank you Sephiroth." Claude frowned, "Tifa doesn't know where Marlene and Denzel were taken, and where to find them... By the way, Ross and Where's Kadaqiu? Did you... kill them?"

"Hmm. But it's no use."

"What do you mean?"

"As long as the will of 'I' is still in the river of life, they will never completely disappear."

Claude's eyes moved, he understood what he meant, and his throat was dry: "Are they made by Sephiroth?"

Sephiroth responded lightly.

Claude wanted to say something, but just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by a shout from the first floor. He and Sephiroth went down the stairs one after another, and saw a child standing among the ruins of the bar booth on the first floor.

Seeing Claude's eyes light up, the child looked back outside before continuing, "Claude! I saw Marlene and the others get into a truck! Everyone said they were going to treat Starscar!"

After saying this, the child hurried away, turning a deaf ear to Claude's shout behind him.

Contacting him carefully before speaking, Sephiroth speculated: "There are people on this street who don't want us to chase after them."

"...They thought they could really cure the star marks." Claude said with a gloomy face, "Everyone has been tortured by the star marks for a long time, even if there is a little hope, they will not let it go."

"But where will those children be taken..."

"Claude."

Sephiroth suddenly made a sound, and the light in his eyes flashed, "Where is the city you mentioned earlier?"

……

This is a forest of dim light.

The trees in the forest have lost all their branches and leaves, leaving only bare branches, and it is impossible to distinguish their exact species.

The leafless trees that line the area resemble long-dead specimens as well as living creatures.If you look carefully at the shadows on each tree, you will find that the brightness is slightly different, and occasionally there are a little bit of light falling from the branches.

In the center of this gloomy forest is a crystal-clear lake, and now there are children standing in a circle beside the lake.

Together with a silver-haired young man on the shore, they stared down at the center of the lake, where two pale and lean bodies were slowly rolling up from the lake water, their silver hair floating in the water like light.

But a few hundred meters away, on a quiet forest path, the roar of the locomotive broke the tranquility, and the wheels left two deep marks on the soil. Among the dimly lit trees.

When Sephiroth mentioned that the children might be taken to the Forgotten City, Cloud's eyes flashed with pain.Before entering this forest, the blond youth exudes an aura of resistance all over his body. It seems that he has encountered very tragic things here, so tragic that even being close to the old place will bring great pain.

It was only later that Sephiroth found out that this was the place where he killed the ancient Alice in this world...

Of course, Claude hasn't said anything about it yet, he just lowered his body on the locomotive, the corners of his mouth tightened, and his eyes under the windshield stared straight ahead.

The wind shook Claude's blond hair like a piece of golden mist.

It wasn't until there was a loud "creak" of the brakes that the movement of the golden mist stopped abruptly. Sephiroth came back to his senses, also stopped the car, and straightened up.But what he looked at was behind the three Kadaqiu brothers, and there was something calling him.

"Sephiroth!" Kadaqiu, who had come back from the dead, shouted out his name angrily, and forcibly drew his attention back, "I already know who you are!"

This sentence is a bit strange, even Claude, who is extremely vigilant in front of the enemy, can't help but look over.

Kadaqiu gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to say something but was afraid of some kind of existence, and finally swallowed the original words and changed: "He is waiting for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the children gathered behind him took the initiative to get out of the way, as if inviting Sephiroth to pass.

Those children originally lowered their heads, but now they raised their heads to reveal a pair of blue-green eyes. These eyes represent that they have been controlled by Jenova cells for the time being.

That being the case, who is waiting for Sephiroth inside is about to come out.

Sephiroth took a deep look at Cloud, and walked towards the artificially created path.

When his figure slowly disappeared into a fluorescent tree trunk, the children surrounded Claude again, and Kadaqiu even laughed out loud at this moment: "Everyone, this is our brother... "

Kadaqiu's voice gradually faded behind, and a clear lake appeared in front of Sephiroth.

With just one glance, Sephiroth recognized that this lake should be the planet's Altana, the river of life.

He walked to the shore and looked down into the water, where his shadow was reflected in the water.

Or rather, the shadow of Sephiroth.

Long silver hair, blue vertical pupils, black double-breasted windbreaker, exactly the same appearance, but his face is more mature than Sephiroth's, and his cheeks are thinner.

"Who are you?" The shadow in the water opened his mouth.

Sephiroth didn't speak, but raised his eyes and scanned the surroundings. At this moment, a red shadow flashed behind the woods on the opposite side of the lake.

He raised the corner of his mouth and smiled lightly, lowered his head, and looked at the reflection again: "I am Sephiroth."

The people in the water stared at him deeply, their eyes were dark and full of estimation: "Sephiroth."

Vertical pupils meet vertical pupils, two almost identical faces face each other, Sephiroth's real reflection almost coincides with the person in the water, but it is also vaguely different.

For example, the height of two people, such as the length of hair of two people...

He is him, and he is not him.

Sephiroth in this world is also very determined, and after digesting this amazing news for a while, he just accepted it.

Compared with his other self in this world, he cares more about another thing: "How did you do it?"

This time, Sephiroth didn't answer him, because the person hiding behind the tree couldn't bear it and came out from behind a tree trunk.

It was a man in a red cloak, with a handsome face and vicissitudes of eyes, looking at Sephiroth with a complicated expression.

From this man's point of view, the silver-haired young man on this side of the lake was always talking to himself.

Whether the other party walked to the river of life, or lowered his head and said something inexplicable... When the other party is indeed alone, it really looks weird and weird.

Although I don't know how Sephiroth was resurrected, could he be completely crazy this time?

The man couldn't help thinking this way, and his mood suddenly became more complicated.

The silver-haired young man across this river of life is the hero of Shinra in the past, the product of J's experiment, and even more... the child of his former lover.

Lucrezia...

Even after so many years, Vincent Valentine's heart still aches when he thinks of this name.

Sephiroth is not too unfamiliar with Vincent. Claude mentioned this elder when he described his past experience before. The other party was once a member of the Shinra Company Tax, but later became a member of the company. of test items.

Vincent has been sleeping in the secret room under the Shinra Villa until Claude and the others broke his sleep...

"Sephiroth." The black-haired man across the lake said in a deep voice, "Although I don't know how you appeared now, you won't have a second chance to occupy this planet."

While speaking, his right hand had reached behind his waist.

Sephiroth blinked, suddenly realizing that there might be a little misunderstanding between them.

He wanted to explain, but Claude and the others didn't give him this chance.

The roar of an explosion came from not far behind, and almost as soon as the roar passed through, the man on the other side of the lake turned into a red shadow and disappeared in place.

Sephiroth rolled back and backed away, Masamune's left hand gradually revealed his figure, and the lake where he was originally standing had left a row of bullet holes that were still smoking.

……

Claude was forced back again and again by the three Kadaqiu brothers.

After finally dodging Ross's fist, Yazu's bullet shot from behind, and at the same time, Kadaqiu inserted the double-edged knife from the top of his head.

In fact, even if the three of them cooperate with each other tacitly, Claude shouldn't be in such a mess, but there are still a group of children behind the other party watching, Claude is wary, and he must avoid hurting the controlled children while parrying and counterattacking. , Invisibly let yourself fall into passivity.

And Sephiroth.

Claude couldn't help but worry about Sephiroth, who had gone to the depths of the Forgotten City.

What he was worried about was not Sephiroth's physical safety, but... his spirit, or his will.

When Sephiroth said that the part of his consciousness that wanted to destroy the planet still existed in the River of Life, Claude began to worry secretly.

He was more worried than the conspiracy of the three of Kadaqiu, what would happen if Sephiroth was affected by the negative consciousness in the River of Life?

In fact, the answer is very clear, if Sephiroth still wants to continue to destroy the planet, then Claude can stop him like last time.

but……

Claude is really unwilling to let the current Sephiroth disappear.

Sephiroth who will save Denzel, Sephiroth who will talk to children on an equal footing, Sephiroth who will smile, Sephiroth who will worry about this planet...

After getting along for the past few days, Claude found that this was the figure he had been looking for, or in other words, this was what the original Shinra hero should look like.

Gentle, peaceful, powerful.

Instead of killing innocent people, the guy who said he wanted to destroy humanity.

Sephiroth, don't lose to that guy in the River of Life.

Claude raised his arm vigorously, held the blade that Kadaqiu had slashed, and prayed silently in his heart.

It was this moment of distraction that made Kadaqiu's eyes shine and he smiled coldly.

not good!

Claude woke up instantly, but it was too late to react.

Ross's lightning-flashing fist and Yazu's bullets were already on the left and right, heading straight for him.
