You and I promised to meet again in hell

The autumn of the red leaves in the mountains, the sword of Rinya Nakajima, the endless darkness... everything is repeated monotonously in the dream. Accepting the shackles of reincarnation that may never be escaped again.

until the end of the soul.

Perhaps, the days I have worked hard and the vows I made together are not meaningless.But just like the trajectory in the sky, there is no trace, and while I am aimlessly flying towards the morning sun in the east, everything is disillusioned again, and the blows after blows have made me so tired.

Relying on drugs, reliant on killing, reliant on all the filth, that's who I have been for the past few years.

Even, I, an unrepentant person, realize all this only now.

Falling into darkness again...

The body sank suddenly, and I could feel it.Already, is it over?

……

An indistinct voice came from his ears, and he couldn't tell what it was, it was just a hallucination before he died.

All the five senses have lost their effect, only the will of nothingness has been floating in the boundless solitude, without belonging or annihilation.It's just that, it continues to exist for the sake of existence.

Gradually, as if the hallucinations deepened, I could hear a little sound from the outside world, and it gradually became clearer, but I still couldn't distinguish what kind of sound it was, because I didn't have the energy to determine what it was. significance.

I can feel the cold, which is the only feeling I have at the moment.cold.The heart-like pain caused by the cold suddenly appeared all over the body, as if it was the torture of hell. With the pain, I gradually realized, where is the hand, where is the foot, where is the head, where is the body, where is the internal organs.Immediately afterwards, it seemed that he could even imagine what posture he was leaning on a flat surface similar to a wall.

This dream is very real.

But maybe, it is, what I was looking for, that dream.

Consciousness returned to the body, and he could feel his eyelids that seemed to have glued together, and his closed eyes told himself that there was darkness all around.

——Open your eyes.

Somewhere there is such a voice suggested to me.

So I opened my eyes with difficulty, the dry eye sockets.

Hope that can create a ray of light for yourself.

However, at the end of this soul and will, there is no light.

All that can be seen is darkness.

Darkness, darkness, darkness, endless darkness, darkness that makes one unable to breathe, darkness that makes one unable to believe that one is alive.

However, as a proof of OR.

I unconsciously groaned softly, and the sound echoed in the silent room.

"Hai...not yet?"

"Um?"

"Is it Haiwei..." The intermittent voice continued.

Consciousness gradually became clear, and Haiwei suddenly realized who the voice belonged to.

"Bird?"

"Um……"

"here it is?"

"This is the inside of the dungeon." On the other side, another voice sounded, it was Xi's voice.

"What..." Still unable to move his body, Hai Weiru is aware of the current state of his body, lacking consciousness all over his body.

He stopped talking, and Hai Wei closed his eyes again, obviously in this situation it was not the time to have a good communication with them.

Consciously entering the body, Haiwei noticed that his physical condition was not as bad as he imagined. There was blood everywhere, but obviously that was better than letting all the blood flow out. His lips and throat were very dry, and he could only bleed out just now. Those few sounds are already very forced.

It's been a long time since she ate or even drank water, Haiwei made a judgment, and after understanding the current situation, she tried to move her arms.

Most of the consciousness has been restored, although there is still no feeling in the left shoulder or even the whole left hand, Haiwei feels that she can move her right hand.But with the sound of a few murky iron objects colliding, her right hand moved a certain distance and then stopped.

"Tsk." Unconsciously, Haiwei regained his strength, and Haiwei looked around, but unfortunately found nothing.

As imagined before, this is a truly isolated place without even a shred of light, and the terrifying depth of the four underground floors isolates everything.Unable to discern anything, as if the physical body never existed.

Barely identifying the direction where the two happened just now, Kai Wei asked Kotori, "Are our hands restricted?"

"No, among the four of us, only your hands and feet have lost their freedom, and we can still move freely." The answer was not Kotori, but sitting (Umi thought she should sit in the same posture as herself with) Hee on the other side.

It turned out that even his feet were imprisoned, but Haiwei's current energy was not spent on verifying this point.

"Four?"

"Yeah, Eri is still unconscious. She's lying on my lap."

Hai Wei did not speak again.

——There is only infinite self-blame for oneself.

As a result, he still didn't protect anyone.

"I'm sorry..." He replied softly with a slight choke.

no respond.

Hai Wei lowered his head.

But at this moment, a gentle touch came from behind.

"Hai Wei doesn't need to blame himself. It's just that we all haven't worked hard enough. Hai Wei has already done a good job."

The sound of the chain being pulled could be heard, and Qinli hugged the flustered Haiwei tightly from behind.

"It doesn't matter anymore."

Qinli caressed Haiwei's hands, and even though she couldn't see her, Haiwei knew that at this moment, the other person's face must be filled with the same smile as before.

——This is Nan Qinli.

After a moment of shock, Haiwei noticed something different - Qinli's hand was so bumpy that Haiwei could even feel the freshly healed wound on it.

"Kinori, you..."

"Ah." As if the secret she wanted to hide was discovered, Kotori quickly withdrew her hand, but let Kaiwei lie on her body, and kept her mouth shut without saying a word.

As if his heart had been pulled a bit, when he thought of the four iron chains on his body, Hai Wei certainly could have guessed what Qinli would do with her hands that should be the most dexterous artist in the world.

Maybe we have to cheer up again, Hai Wei understood.

Because I am Kotori's prince and Eri's knight, I must protect them until their death.

"Those hands are not used for such things." Kaiwei held the trembling hand of Xiaotiao, and smiled softly.

"Wow..." As if the long-standing pressure had been vented, Kotori threw herself on Haiwei again and began to cry.

"Noki, how is your situation?" Kaimi asked Nozomi while gently stroking Kotori's hair with his right hand.

"Our family is still in good spirits. Now I just want to wait for Erili to wake up. She has been too tired all this time, just like you."

"Um."

Hai Wei affirmed the words of the love rival in front of him.

——Now I can only watch Eri silently.

Perhaps the end of the soul is not as terrifying as imagined.
