Chapter 100

They say time heals all wounds, but the greater the loss, the deeper the wound and the harder it is to be whole again.

The pain may fade away, but the scars remind us of the pain we once suffered, and make the suffering people more determined not to get hurt again.

Over time, we get lost in petty worries, express frustration, engage in violent and aggressive behavior, and allow anger to take over.

For a long time, we have made plans and waited for the moment when we become stronger.By the time we realize the time, we are healed and ready to start again—

Just looking at Sylvia's face can tell how disappointed she is.Because the result she wanted was not presented in front of them, when Sylvia took Rebecca and Elijah out of Klaus' room without good intentions.Claus is concentrating on applying oil paint to his canvas.

Sylvia rarely showed her unhappiness on her face, like now, she raised her eyebrows with a drooping face and disdain, "You look good, I thought there would be a real devil here with you My own inner demon is fighting."

Klaus didn't stop what he was doing, but raised his eyelids slightly from behind the easel to look at them outside the door, and even smiled kindly at them.It's more ironic than kind.

"The devil in me has surrendered to me." He said easily, carefully speculating on the canvas in front of him.

"Hmm, it seems I'm worrying too much." Elijah gently grabbed Sylvia's waist, and it was obvious that this action was intentional.Apparently Klaus wasn't too interested in what he was trying to sound out.In his opinion, Elijah's actions were all just to please this woman's powerful vanity.

"I'm sure you'll find another way to play your game." Elijah expressed ambiguously.

These words were obvious, based on what he knew about Sylvia, Sylvia would indeed do this.As long as she doesn't let Klaus out for a day, this is clearly the answer in front of her.

Now is not the time to haggle over, Klaus finally figured something out.He was right to think that Elijah was figuring out what to do, and the rest of the account would be settled later.The most important thing now is that he has to control his temper so as not to be controlled by Sylvia's witchcraft again.That taste...he didn't want to try again.

Sylvia was always like this, conceited and proud, even after being reincarnated again.Of course she will try to torture Klaus, and Elijah's hint is obvious, and the meaning in his words is clearly reminding Sylvia, "It's a pity, your plan fell through."Elijah knew Sylvia too well, that was a woman who was unwilling to admit defeat.Then maybe... she won't be in the mood to continue torturing him with magic, but who knows.But now it seems that she is really angry and unwilling, and she is really in a bad mood.

"Do you need to stay here, honey," she said, turning to Rebecca, even with emotion in her voice.But obviously, she immediately thought that she had asked nonsense, "So I should behave more democratically, shouldn't I be at a family gathering?" She glanced at Elijah again angrily, and left them angrily, leaving Show them the sound of her high heels hitting the floor hard.

This time, they all knew that the witch was really angry.

"Do you remember when Nicklaus drew your picture?"

Elijah asked Rebecca beside him, although he didn't look at her.

Rebecca's reaction was half a beat slow, but she didn't find the emotion they wanted on her face. Instead of answering Elijah's question directly, she lowered her head and smiled and shook her head.

"None of these can make up for the great pain he caused me. Heh—"

"What do you think angered him in the first place? Rebecca." Elijah continued to ask.

"It's not something I want to think about anymore, Elijah." Rebecca raised her voice, and it was obvious that she had no intention of making peace.And what she meant was very clear, even if Elijah tried hard to be his great saint, it would be impossible to try to get her to change her mind.

"Don't argue about me."

Klaus in the room finally put down the palette in his hand, took a tissue to wipe his hands, and walked towards them.He couldn't get out of the magic circle, he could only stand inside the magic circle.He seemed tolerant, and in his personal life, probably the only gesture of tolerance.

He actually tried to liven up the atmosphere, "I'm waiting for your lover to launch the latest attack on me, let me think about what other ways she will torture me. Speaking of understanding, I want to ask..."

"Nicklaus, shut up." Now it was Elijah's turn to get angry, he interrupted him roughly, and quickly emphasized, "We were originally a family, but we always have our own reasons to blame each other did, and now, I'm going to watch us attack each other without knowing what to do. Just because, you—" he pointed to Klaus, "your powerful ego won't admit that you're a dictator , even to our sister, even an apology is stingy. And you—” He turned to face Rebecca again, with the same harsh tone, “Stop using our father to commit crimes I use my sins as an excuse, Rebecca, we are not the embodiment of evil, and my once innocent and kind little sister has been tortured to the point of being ugly by hatred."

They didn't speak after that, and it was obvious that Rebecca wanted to refute something, but she restrained herself when she saw Elijah's face.Klaus also turned away, when he realized that his anger was likely to be ignited because of this topic.

"Do you care so much about all these grievances?" Elijah spoke quickly, mingled with anger, "I wonder why we can't have a drink for the reunion, or if Rebecca is still angry with Nicklaus and throws him away." Better to give him a good beating than to throw one's own brother to a witch who wants more than that."

Then, he sighed heavily, he shouldn't waste any more time here, and Elijah left quickly, leaving them with an angry back.

Rebecca watched Elijah leave without a word, and when she rowed to Klaus, she saw Klaus just look up at her.There was a quick ironic smile on the corner of her mouth, and she spread her hands with an innocent face. It shouldn't have been her fault in the first place!

"It was enough to be a sad party. Actually, I never expected you to learn to say sorry, Nick." She twitched her lips again and pretended to laugh.However, the feeling of loss in her heart immediately made her extremely uncomfortable.

She needs to get some air.

Sylvia didn't know where she went, and Rebecca was wandering around the house. If she could, she really wanted to lose her temper. If she could go back and continue to torture Klaus, at least she could listen to his helpless tragedy. Shouting, the sound is more fascinating than a wonderful piece of music.But she felt that it was boring to do so, and it even annoyed her even more!

"Rebecca."

Elijah stopped her, and he didn't know when he appeared behind her.Rebecca turned around, she didn't answer, enough to show her displeasure.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that the way you preached to me has disgusted you so much." Elijah smiled helplessly.He knew his sister well, if she hadn't changed after a thousand years.But……

"Tell me, why?" Rebecca asked suddenly.

It was an abrupt and childish question, but at least it allowed them to understand each other.Elijah lowered his head. He didn't seem very sure, but at least it gave him hope.

"I want to know what you really think, Elijah." Rebecca didn't wait for him to speak. She looked hurt and stubborn, as if she was determined to have a good talk, but she was really unwilling.

This is indeed a glimmer of hope, Elijah actually does not know how to start a good start at this moment.

"Because we are a family." In the end, his answer was quite satisfactory, as usual, "Because we all understand that he will always make mistakes. Because your world is not entirely just his brother."

"Of course." Rebecca looked at him stubbornly. "I'm not a fool or an idiot. The purpose of waking me up was not pure. I thought that after so many years, my family and my brothers would at least know how to respect me." Willingness...but obviously not. In my waking days, I see, it seems like I'm the only one who is wrong."

Now, not only did he feel hope, Elijah also felt a little warmth, some heartache, and more helplessness.At least the feeling Rebecca gave him gradually became familiar, she was still the same as before.Elijah walked up to her, and at that moment, he wanted to hug her.But no, he just looked at her emotionally, then leaned over and kissed her on the cheek, just like he always did.

"Rebecca, you should be with us," he said.

"With you? You, and Klaus? I continue to be Klaus' weapon of destruction, watching him treat everyone who has nothing to do with us cold-bloodedly?" Rebecca was a little excited, she Even trembling, "I don't want to, Elijah. I just want to be a normal person, or have me be like you."

Now, Elijah was completely relieved, even though Rebecca in front of him was not emotionally stable.But in her, he clearly saw a deep and inextricable family affection.

"Then leave Sylvia and stay with me." He asked softly, his tone as soft as possible.He stretched out his hand to stroke the tuft of hair that fell off his sister's cheek, it was so beautiful with a golden luster. "I know your love for Sylvia, and I know your thoughts. But some answers will be qualitatively different after a thousand years. You need to keep your eyes open to see clearly. You have the source of strength she needs, Rebecca, don't forget how our father made you."

He didn't insist on persuading him anymore, Rebecca hated anyone mentioning their father, some words would only make things more complicated, and he believed that she was not a fool or an idiot, she could see some things inside.She will understand.

Soft music is played in the elegant and gorgeous room.Three corpses were randomly placed on the carpet. The appearance of these three corpses was not very good-looking. It could be said that they were terrifying. They were vampires, but the blood had been drained from their bodies, and their bodies turned a strange blue-purple color.It is incompatible with the layout of the whole room, as well as the music, and the two ecstasy and naked bodies that are entangled together, those are two women.

Rebecca seemed to enjoy it abnormally. When Sylvia's warm fingertips touched her cool body lightly, it seemed that there was a strange electric current.This is different from heterosexual love. They grow up together, spend their beautiful youth together, and feel deeply for each other's pain together.She always thought that Sylvia loved her.But Elijah's advice disturbed her...

"What's wrong with you..." Sylvia seemed to feel Rebecca's distraction, and although she didn't want to stop caressing, she still slowed down.

"You think I'm unhappy?" Rebecca looked at her and smiled, was she that obvious?But she still left the other party's body.Glancing at the dead body on one side of the carpet in disgust, she lay down on the other side of the bed, "I want you to remove the spell on me and turn me into a normal vampire. Instead of just relying on vampires I don’t want to kiss you without being careful not to bite you and poison you, Sylvia, I know you have this ability.”

"Does it have to be like this?"

Sylvia looked at Rebecca and said nothing.She was just caressing Rebecca's smooth blond hair absently.

"Rebecca, I know this has been your wish for a long time. Look, we can be together again after such a long time. From the closed era in the past, to the present world, it is perfectly acceptable for us to be together "Sylvia said slowly, "We can complement each other, Rebecca, don't ignore your own ability, we will get more, don't you want it?"

At that moment, Rebecca thought that she should listen to Elijah's words, and Elijah's persuasion was in her ears. He once said, 'What Sylvia wants is power, a steady stream of power'.But she just didn't want to believe it.

She tried to ask, "You never thought of breaking the spell that was put on me, did you?"

This time, Sylvia raised her head and looked at her, her eyes became more serious, and her calm tone was even obtained after taking a deep breath, "Did Elijah say anything to you? "

101 chapter

In the spacious room, the light is just right, and the sunlight pours in from the window, just shining on the big bed.

A woman walked slowly to Klaus's bedside, she looked at him, with complex emotions in her eyes, appreciation, pity, cruelty, pride... In short, maybe even she couldn't tell what else could be used An adjective for the mood at this time.He is always arrogant, but now he can only lie on this bed obediently.Helpless and pale...

She paced to the easel again, it was a painting full of oil paint, with a bright moon above the fiery red city.What a lonely moon, like the eyes of God looking down on a piece of land.

Klaus woke up slowly, unable to describe his current state clearly, he only remembered waking up and lying on the bed after a strange feeling of exhaustion invaded him.He slapped his upper body and had no strength in his body.In a trance, he could hear a woman's crooning, which sounded like some kind of singing.Then the woman came up to him, caressing his legs, arms, chest, forehead...

He saw clearly that it was Sylvia.

"What are you going to do?" He asked feebly, warning himself not to get angry, lest the witch would laugh at him.Of course Sylvia would do that, if a certain trap didn't work.

"Poor guy," she whispered to him, placing a glass of red liquid in front of him, "Drink it, if you want to hear what I have to say."

Klaus just stared at the witch in front of him, and had to admit that the pain in his body hit again.He took a deep breath, gasping heavily.

"You have my black magic in your body, I think you should know how to control it. However, intentional power is a luxury for you." Her tone was very calm, as if injecting black magic into Klaus It was a matter of course, and the whole thing seemed to have nothing to do with her.But she didn't want to continue to torture him, but sat on his bed and looked at her, "Nicklaus, I think if you can let go of some prejudice against me, I will let you get the answer you want." She explain.

It's hard to tell what Klaus is thinking now, he is paying attention to Sylvia's expression and behavior, and he wants to know what kind of idea she is planning. "Do you know what answer I want?" He tried to ask, and sneered self-deprecatingly, "The witch who was resurrected from the dead reincarnated and came back to take revenge, using the body of the descendants of her family, when you didn't let go of your hatred, let me Let go of your prejudices?"

But Sylvia's actions towards him confused him for a moment, because she didn't torture him anymore, but gently held his face, stroked from forehead to chin, her warm fingers seemed to want to Trying to outline him, the gesture is as gentle as caressing a lover, "You killed me, Nicklaus." She whispered in front of him, the voice seemed to be broken, "We have long I got to know you, at that time I was conquered by your talent, your paintings, your pain, your ideals... all of them touched my heart."

It really felt like going back a thousand years ago, and Klaus thought his spirit was in a trance for a second, sad, yes, deeply sad. "Then stay with me and we can start over, as long as you don't have Rebecca's ideas," he blurted out without thinking.

Sylvia laughed, not really. She even lowered her head and kissed his forehead, as if she wanted to express her true feelings, "Nicklaus, your thoughts are still as true as before. Pure? Are you ready to stop ignoring my feelings? But you are the one who killed me."

She left him, turned mercilessly away, and stood by the window looking out.

"Don't tell me that you fooled around with Elijah to get my attention, Sylvia." Klaus sneered, "If you continue to want more support and strength from Rebecca... "

"Uh——" Sylvia directly interrupted him, she stood outside the window and giggled, "It's a pity that your brothers and sisters are not as loyal as you think." She walked towards him again, picked up the cup on the bed cabinet Liquid, strongly suggested, "Drink it, drink it, undo the black magic on your body, and follow me to a place. Of course, if you don't have the courage, talk about it."

It was the hardest blood to swallow, so hard that Klaus almost spat it all out after swallowing it.But Sylvia covered his mouth, and she told him, "I can imagine Rebecca's venom is spreading down your throat, until it reaches your stomach, it's hard for you to swallow, but you Need." This description is very vivid, Klaus can really feel that the liquid is flowing down his throat and slowly into his stomach, the burning taste is cool and bitter enough, and his The stomach is gasping sourly, as if my internal organs are being corroded...

Klaus had already drank Rebecca's venom, which was another method used by Sylvia, but in fact he did not die from the poison, and he even found that the flames scurrying around him were Being extinguished, from the heart slowly to the limbs are being healed.

This kind of Sylvia confuses him. He doesn't know what her purpose is, but she seems to be calm, which is fundamentally different from the state that appeared angrily at his door a few days ago.But he can't believe her, the warning in his consciousness is like this, he admits that he doesn't know Sylvia well, but there are quite a lot of rumors about her, even Elijah said that she is a cunning and unique woman like a fairy .You never know how much 'game' is going on in her head.Elijah calls Sylvia's wisdom a game.

In fact, they went to a place, a place that Klaus was no stranger to.It was an all-white tempered glass room, like a laboratory.As they opened the door and went in, a young man turned around. It was Egbert...

At the same time, when Elijah arrived at an ordinary residential building not far from the church.The door opened quickly to let him in, and closed again quickly.

"I've found a way to break her spell," Sophia said urgently upon seeing Elijah, looking ecstatic.

"Then what about my conditions?" Elijah looked much calmer, "I don't want to be disappointed again, Sophia."

"I don't have much time to think about that, Elijah." Sophia looked serious, even her attitude was tough, "You have to understand how terrible Sylvia is, every time Rebecca kills a vampire, Syl Via can draw power from it, and her power is getting stronger and stronger invisibly. And your persistent and poor sister doesn't know it yet."

"I have made it clear that the first condition for me to cooperate with you!" Elijah looked equally serious. He was not in the mood to bargain with Sofia. Regarding what Sofia said, Sylvia was using Rebecca to absorb more energy. Problem, he knows, but... "My sister is being used, my brother is enchanted and imprisoned in his room. I also don't have time for games, Sophia."

Sophia stopped arguing, but she didn't have the slightest idea of ​​giving in, "I'm not sure that this method will definitely bring Stella back alive." She refused coldly, but she didn't want to casually deceive an ancient animal. The vampire, "I believe you can tell which is more important, Elijah, the longer the time goes on, the stronger Sylvia's magic ability will be. Let alone saving Stella's soul, no one can kill Die Sylvia."

She wasn't scaremongering, of course Elijah understood.At that moment, he was silent, and the face and smile similar to Sylvia quickly passed before his eyes.He seemed to see a tear-stained gray eye, as if the owner of the eye was saying to him, 'I will accept my fate, Elijah...' At that moment, he felt his heart ache again .

"I will find three wizards with the same mana as me in the shortest possible time. The witches in New Orleans are useless, and they will only get weaker and weaker." Sophia ignored him, she said While walking, he quickly prepared some items, such as ropes, hemp ropes, herbs, and a small pot of blood.She placed them one by one in different places in the house, and then looked at Elijah again, "I need some blood from you, Elijah, the blood of the vampire elders will fuel the magic at that time." Then she took out a handful The silver dagger was handed to Elijah.

"Are you sure your magic will be useful?" Elijah recovered from his disappointment, and he took the dagger from Sophia's hand and looked at it.Indeed, many things can not be impulsive.If Stella can't come back because of this... But no matter what, and regardless of whether Sophia is purely for revenge, they must send Sylvia back to hell for Rebecca.Even at the expense of Stella...

"Put this dagger at Sylvia's heart, and I will bring back Stella's soul the moment she dies, but I can't guarantee the uncertain factors that will appear during the period. Black magic is paid, choose Rebe Card or Stella, the right is yours." Sophia looked confident, and her meaning was very clear, there was no room for turning back.But she confessed uneasy, "None of us have room for failure, Elijah."

"I know." He replied dumbly.But at least it represented hope. He lowered his head and glanced at the dagger in his hand again. At that time, Sylvia would die, Rebecca would be released, and Stella might come back.If the purpose of Sylvia's return can be a little more simple, then maybe it can be a comedy.

Klaus took a deep breath, the whole environment was no stranger to him.The same room was in the same laboratory at Heaven and Hell in Seattle, and he knew that the two people in front of him were not deceiving him, and it was because of his own doubts and discoveries that he almost died.Was it Stella who saved her, or it was just a coincidence.

It is undeniable that Klaus is sad and angry, and the anger burned so much that even his fingers showed numb pain, as if the black magic that Sylvia had cast on him had not been removed.But he didn't fully show it. He didn't believe that Sylvia claimed that Egbert Stuart was her ally. Facing the elders of the family, Egbert, this little boy, was eager to seek asylum. He would This patronage does not do any deeds of meniality.Utilization has almost become a gene inherited by the Stuart family.

"Is this what you want to tell me, my dear brother's great betrayal?" Klaus said coldly, "Elijah and Anastasia cooperate to find balance in me, and study and deal with me at all costs weapons?"

"Yes, Klaus." Sylvia didn't beat around the bush, her answer was straightforward, "As my dear Egbert said, Egbert belongs to the Stuart family, and there is no need for him to I lied. Elijah sacrificed Anastasia, and his confession is sincere enough."

"I'm sure this is another game of yours." Klaus questioned blankly.

"Oh!" Sylvia affirmed behind him, "it must be. But it seems to me that you like the truth, don't you?"

"I don't know what tricks you're playing, but I admit that I like every truth. But if your purpose is to provoke a head-on confrontation with the elder vampire brothers, it's a big mistake."

Of course Sylvia can determine the truth of this sentence, but Klaus is proud, even if he is furious, he will not show it at this time.He just didn't want to be led by the nose, which she thought she understood him perfectly.

Sylvia shook her head, as if she thought Klaus's stubbornness was stupid, she whispered in his ear, "Nicklaus, I want to tell you, I am Stella, Stella That's me. While I shared Stella's body, I also shared her mind. I know she didn't mean it when she showed intimacy with you. She continued my feelings for Elijah and you But what made Elijah choose to hide this secret from you after she shared it with Stella?" She smiled triumphantly, and patted Crowe gently provocatively. He gestured to Egbert behind his chest, "I think Nicklaus needs to calmly think about how to deal with the dishonesty of his family."

They walked out one after another, leaving Klaus alone to face the reagents in the entire laboratory, werewolf venom, vampire blood, and rows of silver nitrate bullets neatly placed in the invisible cabinet...
