Mamon Youth Development Program

"I noticed just now, Viper, you...have been paying attention to Sivnora."

Viper snapped his fingers, seeing that there was almost nothing left in the cup, he put the cup in his hand aside, pursing his lips slightly. "You found out."

"Ah... Although it's not very obvious, it's still easy to notice. After all, your eyes are always looking in that direction subconsciously. If you observe more, you will find it."

"Sivnora is probably the most suitable type of mafia boss in Viper's mind."

Giotto stared at Sivnora who was going away, and asked in a low voice: "So I was thinking, if Sivnora had invited you to Viper back then, would Viper have agreed to become a full member of Vongola?"

Surprised by this completely wrong language, Viper turned to face Giotto in surprise, and looked at it for a long time, as if wondering whether the person in front of him was Giotto himself.

"You're really asking something stupid..." Viper frowned, crossing his arms. "No matter who it is, I will never join Pengelie here."

"And the reason why I decided to stay here was because I accepted your original invitation."

"Really..." Giotto said softly as if sighing: "Sure enough, that's not the reason... It's not a matter of who sent the invitation, but no matter who said the original words, it is absolutely impossible for you to agree to become Viper." Official member."

"There are really many differences between you and us, Viper. Both you... and Stephanie are different from us."

What did he notice? Viper's heart trembled, and he asked calmly, "What's different?"

"Feel."

"Feeling? What is that?"

"Haha... It's really not so easy to believe such vague words." Giotto looked at Viper, with a little loneliness in his eyes. "Both you and Stephanie are different from us, Stephanie is like a traveler, accepting and giving good intentions from others without hesitation, but she doesn't care about the consequences of things that have nothing to do with you, Viper. Whether it's a good result or a bad result, she doesn't care about it all, she just enjoys everything now, and when she needs it, she can forget it all. Maybe there will be sentimentality, maybe there will be nostalgia, but Just treat it as an episode in life, and never have the idea of ​​'wanting to go back'."

"And Viper, your way...is different from hers."

"You... From the very beginning, it seems that there will be no intersection in the future. You refuse the approach of people around you. Maybe it can be explained that you simply don't want to communicate with people, but I don't feel that way."

"Viper, you... as if you are ready to say goodbye, keep a distance from the people around you anytime, anywhere, every time I see you, I have a feeling that you may disappear in front of our eyes at any time , not a temporary journey, but a permanent farewell.”

"So Viper, you won't agree, no matter who makes you a full-fledged member of the family, you won't agree, because you are always ready to go back to a certain place, and there...there really exist people who come back here method?"

"Viper..." Giotto paused, and asked softly, "Where did you and Stephanie... come from?"

Viper was silent for a long time, and Giotto seemed to be drinking a lot of words, and now the feeling of dizziness rushed to his brain, he leaned on the table beside him, at first he was able to keep his eyes open, but gradually closed them He closed his eyes, and fell into a deep sleep like G who blocked the drink for him before.

"Where did it come from...?" Viper looked at the guy who was already asleep, sighed, and then subconsciously laughed. "You have a great instinct, Giotto. Indeed, I would never stay here."

"This is not where I should exist. As for where I came here..."

"...It should be said that it is a place that will never be able to communicate with this place."

Giotto's eyelashes moved slightly, and his eyes opened a gap for a moment. He vaguely heard what Viper seemed to be saying, but he could only hear vague and fragmented words, and his consciousness became more and more blurred.

Seeing that the people around him were completely asleep, Viper turned to look at Stephanie not far away.

What was it about Stephanie that was different from him?She has always had such an attitude, so he didn't realize anything before today.

Until now, the abnormality in Stephanie's performance was pointed out by Giotto, and he didn't realize it.

Stephanie...what was she hiding from him?

Ahh...Maybe it's just that Stephanie's ability to accept it is a little bit better, so there's no need to think too much about it.

Viper suppressed a little doubt in his heart, stood in a corner away from the crowd, and watched the people in front of him gradually quiet down as time passed.

This year, there was an additional family named Peng Lie in the mafia.

At this time, no one has realized how far this family that evolved from the Self-Defense Forces will develop in the future.

Peng Lie's initial struggles were difficult. If it weren't for the popularity accumulated when he was in the Self-Defense Forces, he might be eliminated in a short time.

Giotto learned everything needed to be a Mafia Boss. His comprehension was very good and he learned quickly. In the following period of time, he learned how to use the dead air flame. When the dazzling orange flame ignited When talking about it, Viper had to admit, it really shocked him.

The people gathered around him also helped him, whether it was Ugetsu, G, Sivnora, Kozart or others, they tried their best to help him.

As the family grows little by little, more troubles come to the door one by one. As the only illusionist in Pengo Lie's early days, Viper has more things to do. Later, he was really annoyed and arrested two children. At home, hand in illusion one by one.As for the tuition fees - Giotto, who knows that both children will later pay for Penger's efforts, is happy to pay.

While teaching, Viper always felt that something was missing. One day, he suddenly realized that he must let others taste his suffering. It happened that the two little devils had green hair and decisively combed two broccoli.Unexpectedly, these two brats have the same taste as his teacher, and they are unwilling to change their hairstyles happily watching their hairstyles.So the Vengley headquarters saw two vegetables swaying around all day long...

Instead, Viper himself was so annoyed that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he left a lot of tasks and let them go out to hang out by themselves. Of course, he didn't forget to use an illusion to help the two little devils.The two little devils didn't come back at all, and they ran around all day for the task. The broccoli faction in the illusion rose because of the appearance of these two.

What kind of situation is he in this situation... Viper raised his forehead, that is to say, his future master is actually an unknown generation of disciple?Do you want to do this...

Sometimes Viper would go out with Giotto, and he would also encounter thorny troubles. In one crisis, he hid in a mansion, and the young master of the family was lying lazily on a chair while feebly expressing that the two of them were welcome.

When leaving, Giotto actually put the green ring in the hand of the young man named Sapphire, and told him that if he had a thought in the future, he would take this ring to be his guardian.The kid looked at the two people, one big and one small, and opened his mouth inexplicably.

Viper remembered Stephanie saying it was called abduction...

The golden ring was also given away, and the other party was the priest named Naker in the church that Giotto often went to. Although the other party said that he would not fight, he still accepted the ring at Giotto's request.

I have to say that Giotto is an amazing person, because it didn't take long before Stephanie saw these two people at the headquarters, one was always saying "ultimate" and the other was always lazy and seemed to be in the next second She looked like she was lying on the floor and fell asleep.

The most amazing thing is the unexpectedly harmonious relationship between Viper and these two people. The three of them gathered there, and Sapphire was holding in his arms the fruit from his own manor that was said to be brought to him by an appointment with Viper. The fruit was eaten separately.

Perhaps because of occupational problems, Naker has a calm personality and always has a gentle aura. Lan Bao is not as crying as Lan Bo, but he is a wayward child, extremely lazy.

It made G always feel that when he was around these people, he turned into a careless old lady in an instant.

Over time, G has gradually become familiar with how to take care of these guys, Lan Bao, and has also learned to turn a blind eye to some of their actions at times.

If he is always entangled, he must be the one who can't stand it in the end.

On this day, Giotto and G were discussing the current distribution of mafia forces, and accidentally mentioned the name of a family. Stephanie instantly found that Viper, who was chatting with Nakel in her arms, was a little stiff.

They were all familiar with that name—Girurone.

Stephanie looked down at the baby in her arms. That era was still very important to her brother.Gilurone... is indeed a special existence for Viper.Arya, Luche, γ, these names did leave traces in this child's life.

Those present were all thoughtful people, so it was natural to see Viper's unusual silence.

Stephanie gently hugged Viper and let go. "Watch it if you want, Viper."

Viper looked up at him, and Fantazima's red eyes widened too.

The baby flew up and was in front of Giotto in a blink of an eye. "I'm going out for a while."

Seeing Giotto nod, Viper turned around and flew out of the window.

G looked down at the information in his hand, and couldn't help but focus on the name.It is said that it is a new family, headquartered in an unknown place, with a look of indifference to the world.

What was it about this family that attracted Viper's heart?

Seeing what G meant, Stephanie couldn't help but sneered. Giotto said to G: "It's impossible for Viper to do anything against Vengley, don't worry."

"Then thank you for your trust in my brother, Primo." Stephanie chuckled lightly.

In fact, this is just G's habitual caution, and no one really takes it to heart.

It's just that Giotto tapped his fingers on the table in front of him lightly, his eyes were a little distracted.

Sure enough... Viper has too many things that he doesn't understand at all. It's not that he wants to explore the secrets deep in his heart that his friends don't want others to know, but he doesn't want to be as ignorant as he is now.

And there was always some bad premonition in his heart, as if those secrets he didn't know would one day make this friend of his completely disappear from his life.

It would be great if Viper could be more frank and trust their friends a little more...

Viper was already familiar with this road, and he walked it countless times in the years after Lu Qie's death.And every time I walk this road, I always see the girl who has been laughing at the end, calling him "uncle" with a smile, and hiding the soaked cuffs with a smile, just like her mother.

Ahh... I really hate this family's ability to predict, even if it is a visit on a whim, it will definitely be noticed.

Walking through that section of the road, the familiar houses appeared in front of him, roughly the same as in memory, except that the heaviness of the history that would settle down in the next 100 years was missing.

Because of the illusion on his body, no one noticed him. Although his strength has declined, Viper, who has the knowledge of 100 years later, is not something that current illusionists can easily see.What's more, no one would guess—even the location of the headquarters, which most people in his own family didn't know, would be known by an outsider.

Viper walked through familiar places one by one, looking for those different places here. I have to say that this is a very interesting thing, and those discoveries made Viper feel novel.

Something that I was familiar with suddenly had some subtle changes one day.

It's just that when there are more changes, the joy and novelty at the beginning are lost.

Viper knew Stephanie, how could he not know his sister.So he understood that Stephanie's attitude towards this era and that era—it was actually the same.As for him, he couldn't face two different time and space with the same attitude.He has friends and disciples in this time and space, but - he just doesn't have a sense of belonging to the original time and space.

Viper thought that attitude was what Stephanie should have, that it was a sign of Stephanie's sense of belonging.This gave him a subtle illusion that it didn't matter what era Stephanie was in.He has an inexplicable sense of loneliness, as if he is the only one who doesn't adapt to this era.It seems that only I... feel that I must go back to the original era.

Stephanie and him have different attitudes towards this matter.

Viper saw the courtyard, and Arya always sat under the big tree in the middle.Under such circumstances, he actually remembered...the things in his own time and space one by one.

Maybe it's the hurt of the scene, maybe it's the accumulation of the loneliness that the clever illusionist has felt over the past few years.No one can stand being alone, not even Viper who is always alone.

Arya, Umbrella, Luche, γ, Carlo, Feng, Colonello, Scaru, Verdi, Killer, Lal...

These names, the faces of these people came to his mind at this moment.

Viper shook his head and collected his thoughts.

--miss?Don't be kidding, he doesn't need to miss those people!

—he doesn't need it!Absolutely not.

——Obviously, he has made up his mind since accepting the curse, not to care about those things anymore.

Viper gritted his teeth, the emotional fluctuations caused the fluctuations of the illusion, the woman standing in the courtyard felt all this, turned around, revealing a face very similar to Lu Qie.

"Come out, Mr. Kirurone's future guardian."

What do you mean? Viper stood quietly for a while, confirming that the woman had really discovered him, and then withdrew his illusion and came to the woman.

The woman looked at him, but didn't show any surprise, just smiled, reminding Viper of the mother-daughter pair of Luche and Arya. "I am the first generation leader of Gilurone - Shepila, the first time we meet, from the future - Mister Guardian of Gilurone."

The strange words made Viper couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

Xie Pila took out a ring from her bosom, and the gray oval gemstone was right in the middle, just like the gemstone on the Vongola ring that Viper saw in Stephanie's hand before, it obviously had the color of a stone, But surprisingly clear and translucent.

On either side of the gem are a pair of closed white wings.Xie Pila put the ring in the palm of her hand and spread it out in front of Viper's eyes, a pair of small and exquisite wings lay quietly in his palm. "I have never known who the owner of this ring is. Until today, I foresaw your arrival."

"I know, this ring belongs to you, it is waiting for you, and I, Gilurone, are also waiting for you." Shepira said, staring at Viper, with a kind of contagion unique to people with the attribute of big space in her eyes. "Waiting for you, waiting for our guardian of the night. You will be silently guarding this family—the dark night of Giurone."

"May I ask you to accept this ring, sir?"

"You just give the ring representing family rights to a stranger who doesn't even know his name?"

"Not a stranger, but the guardian of Gilurone, the owner of the ring."

"Then—" Viper raised his immature hand. "—It's free anyway."

The Ring of Mare of the Night has since belonged to a baby named Viper.
