[FF7][SC] Star Flower

Sephiroth walked ahead.He walked quickly and hurriedly, but immediately staggered and leaned against the rock, revealing his weakness.Cloud hesitated for a moment, the gesture looked like he was trying to help him, but thankfully he didn't, it would only embarrass Safiro, he didn't need that kind of posturing.No longer paying attention to that side, he lowered his head to calm down his rapid breathing and heart palpitations, and tried his best not to distort his expression.

"You look very happy." He knew it was anger, but he couldn't control it, "I'm curious, why didn't you take this opportunity to kill me?"

Nodding, shaking his head again.

At least not lying about this one.That's the only ridiculous consolation left.

"Anyway, you lost your chance, don't think about having a second chance."

"I know." The center of gravity shifted from the left foot to the right foot, and then back to the left foot. The uncomfortable movement made Sephiroth look sideways.Frostbite.He saw the problem at a glance.Claude has always been good at patience, and if he doesn't plan to speak, Sephiroth doesn't bother to care about him.After a while, the boy asked in a low voice, "How do you feel?"

Sephiroth looked up, surprised fleetingly.

It was just a very common question, but it made them fall into an awkward silence.Claude wandered his eyes, unconsciously wrinkled his coat, and finally suppressed his anxiety, looking directly at Sephiroth. "He... its power is somewhat toxic to special forces."

Sephiroth looked at Cloud and didn't rush to respond.

"I think Genesis was affected at that time, otherwise you wouldn't have lost so thoroughly, so now you may also have some sequelae. Maybe it's just me thinking too much..."

"You're not the type to say such things. In fact, you don't care at all." Sephiroth didn't intend to expose this, but what Claude's words implied deeply angered him.Of course he should feel angry, now that he came here without sleep, broke up with his best friend, and even almost lost his life, he is entitled to vent all his feelings. "If you want to change the subject, it's too stupid. Too much explanation will only reveal what you want to hide-your relationship with that thing, you know him. So all this is just my self-indulgence, huh? It bothers you reunion?"

Under the gaze of those cold, snake-like eyes, Claude opened his mouth slightly, unable to say a word of explanation. "I... I'm sorry."

Well, Genesis was actually right.

A great loss surged out.For a moment, Sephiroth couldn't tell what emotion was circling in his heart.He might want to strangle Claude immediately, or tell Angel the whole truth, as long as he can see the boy struggling in pain, he can do anything; but in fact, he doesn't want to do anything.He has never experienced this feeling before, just deeply tired, so tired that he can no longer move a finger. "You can go now. Go far away with that thing, and never appear in front of me again."

Shaking his head again.

"Or do you want to die?" Violence was brewing in the calm.

"...I don't know. But I won't really die, will I? Life is the price I can pay the most." This threat actually made Claude relax after a long time. The situation was extremely dangerous, but he didn't care Leaning against the stone wall, he sat down slowly and loosely. "You failed, Sephiroth." Regardless of Sephiroth's slightly narrowed eyes and the sinister arc on the corner of his mouth, Claude laughed softly. "I never thought you'd fail before, maybe that's why I'm so happy."

That kind of look, the few times Sephiroth has seen it, occasionally appears among those killed by him, the look that is not afraid of death, willing to lose life for something.It is determination.He didn't understand what decision Claude made, but it was undoubtedly more unpleasant.But Sephiroth couldn't take any action, he just held back, waiting for an explanation that he might not believe in.

This is the first time in these years that Claude smiled in front of him, his brows and eyes stretched, without a trace of haze.

"Sephiroth, what does it feel like to fail?"

"If you just wanted to say this—"

"It's not reconciled, is it? You will definitely do everything you can to find Vincent and fight him until you defeat him. Yes, I know him. Vincent Valentine, who once worked for the Turks , also fell into the hands of Hojo, and finally fell asleep in the Shinra Mansion in Nibelheim, where we first met. But what I want to tell you is not these, or I can say more in the future, but not Now."

"I don't know how to tell you... Maybe I'm not qualified to say that... Do you think that Genesis is always inexplicably angry, and Angel is always hesitant to talk to you? You care about them, But there is no way to integrate into them, so they can only choose to maintain the status quo. But Angel and the others think so too. You are perfect, Sephiroth, too perfect. There is nothing wrong with this, but for us who are not perfect, it is too cruel. It's close to human."

"But now you're losing. You're angry, and you finally know what it means to be unhappy. I think it's... good. You'll start to understand Genesis, why he keeps fighting, he's sick, but you're the one Someone who can make him better. You will also start to understand Angel. Although it is unbelievable, he actually feels inferior when facing you. He always thinks to wait, wait, wait, wait and wait and miss the opportunity .And this is just the beginning, everything will develop in a good direction..."

Their roles were reversed. In the past, Sephiroth always ordered unilaterally, and Cloud was responsible for obeying.But now, Claude was speaking desperately, speaking in such a hurry that he was a little incoherent, for fear that there would be no next chance after being interrupted.

Sephiroth didn't like to hear these words. He never wanted to think about himself, let alone allow others to explore, which was unbearable for him.But he was deeply attracted by Claude's expression - he didn't understand this change, the relaxed smile was becoming bitter, and the sadness was almost overflowing.Involuntarily, he asked, "Why do you say this?"

"It doesn't matter, Sephiroth."

"You have no right to refuse. Tell me."

"It's nothing..." Claude shrank, one arm wrapped around his knee, and the other hand idly fiddled with the little rushes.He looked like he wanted to pretend nothing had happened, but in the end he couldn't help closing his eyes tightly, trembling with joy and shame, tears welling in his eyes. "It's nothing... I may... care about you a little... just..." He said it so painfully, as if it was a heinous thing, "It makes me happy, so I am very sad."

Sephiroth quietly looked at the tearful face of the teenager, and suddenly realized that Claude still had himself, both of them were scarred and embarrassed, like two bereaved dogs who depended on each other.It's really strange that I didn't notice this funny scene until just now, or maybe I didn't think it was funny before.

Then he remembered that when he was struggling in the chaotic darkness, there was liquid dripping on his face, warm and peaceful.

I don't know how long the return journey took. The sun has been shining from above, and I can't tell the passage of time.The cataclysm made the canyon quiet, only the sound of footsteps echoed hollowly.Claude felt uneasy at first, because Sephiroth didn't say a word after that, neither asked Vincent about it, nor planned to explain what to do next, but just walked downstream along the side of the cliff in silence .He kept up and followed suit.Gradually, the monotonous steps aroused deep tiredness, the swaying silver hair twisted into colorful colors in the eyes, and then all perception disappeared.

When I opened my eyes again, the whole world was shaking.

Claude was lying on his broad back, his silver hair was tangled and shiny, and his cheeks were itchy.He stretched out his hand and flicked, Sephiroth faltered, and continued walking as if nothing had happened.His heartbeat was beating through his strong muscles, and he couldn't help but put his ears on it. Hearing the steady and powerful voice, he suddenly felt at ease.

There were only the two of them left in the whole world, Sephiroth walked slowly, the light and time froze in the silence.The road is very long, and it seems that it will never end. For a moment, Claude felt that it was okay to keep walking like this.Instead of facing that uncertain future, without any cruel and terrible fate, Sephiroth will always be like this, not very good, but not bad.

Then, Sephiroth said mercilessly, "I won't let him go, don't have any delusions."

"...Well." It took a while to realize that it was Vincent.But Claude is not worried at all, even after he exposed so much information.Alone, with nothing to worry about, plus the status of ex-Tucks - there is no one in this world who can catch him.

"And don't think you can get away with it," Sephiroth continued. "You know what you did. In fact, I don't even know why I didn't kill you."

"It doesn't matter that way." Claude responded softly.

"You think I won't do that?" Sephiroth asked back.Even if he can't see his face, Claude can still imagine the expression - cold, cold, arrogant, but not showing a trace of weakness - because of this, Sephiroth is the one who can only be looked up to gods. "I can tear you into pieces and throw them in different places to see which piece will grow a new you; I can also throw you into the fire and burn you to ashes, and the wind will leave nothing behind Next; I will even tell Angel all the truth, if he knows that the treasure he has always held in his hands has betrayed his trust, colluded with the enemy and hurt his best friend—”

"So," Claude understood, "have I betrayed your trust too?" The fact is so simple, but he never faced it.

"There must be a limit to joking." Sniffing, as if hearing a big joke, Sephiroth responded contemptuously without thinking, "What qualifications do you have for me to believe?"

"When Vincent was about to kill Genesis, I was the one who saved him, even before he went mad to kill me; I was the one who protected the airship and the lives of the 300 people on it. I I didn't do anything wrong, I didn't betray you."

"You are just avoiding the important. You grew up in Shinra; the closest person you are to Angel, the special soldier who works for Shinra and is proud of it; you say you are willing to give everything for such a life. But in fact, all you What you've done is exactly what Genesis feared - all because you're covering a terrorist who shouldn't have to take the risk."

"This matter has nothing to do with Tifa."

"Tifa." Sephiroth stopped and smiled jokingly, "You have more than a little relationship with her. But what's the use of that? They didn't get bitten back in the end. Their despicableness is engraved in their bones, they only know how to attack The weak who are powerless to resist dare not resist the real enemy."

"I don't want to discuss this with you."

"Then what do you want to discuss?" Sephiroth asked boringly.

A short and depressing silence lasted for a while, and Claude didn't know what he could say.In this case, there is no way to convince Sephiroth, if it is himself, he will never believe a liar with a bad record.But the heart was beating violently, and a strange yet familiar feeling filled it, and it was so full that it was about to explode.

He remembered things from long ago.He didn't know why he remembered that after experiencing so much, everything seemed to return to the original point, and nothing changed from the beginning to the end.At that time, he was standing in the training phalanx, ordinary and unknown.He would quietly raise his head while the officer was patrolling elsewhere, looking at the figure on the height with fascination and admiration; Serious and serious, every movement is meticulous, as if there is only training in mind.But the fact that he knew no one was going to notice him was both a relief and a pain in the ass.

It feels the same now as it did then.

Can't help it.Claude grabbed Sephiroth's shoulder helplessly, then slowly released it, his chin rested on his right shoulder, and his arms tentatively wrapped around his neck.A simple hug.Sephiroth tensed a little, and Cloud could easily feel the muscles rolling under the clothes.Once he stopped deceiving himself and others, those emotions he had been suppressing burst out, and he knew there was no way out.

"Sephiroth," was different from his humble begging on that snowy night many years ago, this time he was full of determination and no longer confused, "I want to live."

"what?"

"I want to live with you."

Sephiroth turned his head sharply, and the sides inevitably collided, but Claude did not deliberately avoid it.He felt a slight tingling, and also felt a warmth that could not be ignored, a temperature that was completely human.The man had the power to hurt him, and surprisingly, the real hurt didn't always come from Sephiroth.

He didn't want to lose the current Sephiroth.

"You..." The look of hesitation was fleeting, Sephiroth frowned, only felt that all this was very strange, and even himself was also strange. "Begging for mercy won't do you any good."

"I chose you." Claude tightened his arms and closed his eyes, like a sacrificial lamb, without any barrier of self-protection.He had struggled to resist obeying this man, but when he was about to be free, he closed the door again without hesitation, without wavering. "I choose you over freedom, Sephiroth."

At first it was just a small seed that fell in the dry heart.It should have been a barren land that could no longer grow any life.But more people came, Hunis, Angel, Vincent... They were really gentle, little by little, caring for them, and bringing the dead back to life.So the seeds that Sephiroth planted inadvertently finally took root in Claude's heart, and bitter flowers bloomed.

The end of the canyon was gradually revealed in front of them, and the whole world was immersed in a comfortable and soft sunlight.

The SUV stopped shaking.Sephiroth opened his eyes, and the temporary camp built of light steel appeared in the field of vision through the ice crystals that condensed on the glass.Withdrawing his gaze, the small weight on his side caused him to tilt his head slightly, and the boy curled up into a small ball, leaning against him unsuspectingly.The accompanying soldiers opened the car door, Sephiroth stared at the golden hair for a while, and suddenly withdrew without hesitation and got out of the car.Claude woke up with a snap, a little dazed, and then subconsciously followed and climbed out of the car.

It wasn't until they joined the search and rescue team that they knew that three days had passed, enough for many changes.Other irrelevant people have already withdrawn first - including Rufas, the president will not allow his precious heir to be damaged in such a place; also including Dr. Baojo, after all, the biological samples are gone, and the magic stone used for research has also fallen into the hands of terrorists.Strangely, Hojo wasn't displeased by this.

After Genesis fell into a bitter battle with the leader of the avalanche, there has been no news so far. Shinra has made the worst plan-this plan also applies to the missing Sephiroth; abnormal natural phenomena have also attracted attention. It's not that important for Shinra, and a small group of investigators was sent over.Lieutenant General Xiu Lei, who should not have appeared at the same time, was supposed to be stationed in Midgar to deal with emergencies, but when he applied to the supervisor, Lazard failed to refuse in the end.

It was almost a miracle that three privates were gathered on this field - two of them were almost broken, a feat that even Wutai could not achieve.

A tall and resolute figure stood in the north of the camp. The man had been standing there for a long time, the snow piled on his head and shoulders, and slightly moistened his not-so-thick sweater.When he saw them coming back, his eyes lit up, but when he saw their tragic situation clearly, his sulk made Angel's expression twist.He strode toward them.

"Sa—"

"No matter what you have to say, let me sleep first. It's because I haven't rested for five days." Sephiroth stopped the predictable long lecture with a blank face. He really wasn't in the mood, bypassed Angel went to the camp.Angel pressed his shoulders and looked at him pleadingly.plead? --oh.Sephiroth was surprised to find that he understood Angel's embarrassment at this time, but he didn't want to get involved with the two of them now. "I thought you wanted to talk to Claude more, you must be very worried about him."

"Sephiroth!"

"I won't say it. Ask yourself what you want to know." Sephiroth firmly broke away Angel's hand, let Claude who was hiding behind him come out, and watched coldly.The scene became awkward for a while.

Claude took a few steps back at a loss, looked at Sephiroth desperately, Sephiroth just wanted to laugh.He swore that if Cloud showed even the slightest sign of wanting to make a case against Nibelheim, he would do it for Genesis.Although—even if he doesn't want to admit it—he's just looking for excuses to defend Claude, because he knows that Claude can't do it.

"Claude, you..." Angel barely evoked a smile, as if he wanted to pat the boy's head soothingly as usual, which should have been a very natural and intimate gesture for them; Claude also Waiting like this, waiting for some kind of ceremonial confirmation that he still has the right to stay with this person.But suddenly, the young man's hand hovered in the air, so Claude's heart fell to the bottom of the valley, and fear invaded like darkness from the abyss.

No... no... He has been with Sephiroth, and those things have not been reported yet...

But before that?What happened on the airship?What would Angel think?

He is not only Angel, but also Shinra's special forces.

That kind of deep fear pierced Angel's eyes. The young man's face was stiff, his fingers were clenched into fists, and he hung down to the seam of his trousers. "You need treatment, go find a military doctor inside."

"Oh... ah, yes, yes."

Look at Sephiroth, the playful and indifferent smile did not reveal any hint; look at Angel again, the guardian has turned around, and walked back without looking back.What's the meaning?Are you mad at him?What should he say to redeem?Claude stood in the middle of the wide snow field, the world was at a loss, only the hollow wind was making noise, and he didn't know what to do for a while.Apologize.By the way, apologies...but where to start?

"Angel?" He started to follow up with a limp, "Wait, Angel?"

There is no lag in the pace of departure.

"Sorry! I shouldn't have clashed with Genesis, you warned me. I... I just wanted to go see Zack, I didn't expect Genesis to be on the airship, if I knew I would Avoid it!" He could hardly feel the part below his knees, and he rolled down on the snow that was pressed hard by the vehicle within two steps.Claude lay trembling on his stomach, gritted his teeth to prop up his body, and fell down again, unable to move his unconscious feet at all.Even so, Angel didn't look back at him.

So Claude started to get scared.I was too scared to say a word.

A pair of black boots stopped in front of him.Claude looked up happily, but it was Sephiroth.

Sephiroth didn't move, just looked at him thoughtfully for a while, and then looked back at his colleagues who were drifting away.Then he didn't say anything, turned around and left.

Sephiroth pushed open the door of the small container-like building, and shut out the cold wind.The room is very warm, although there is no heating, it is at least thirty degrees higher than outside.There was a slight hiss from inside the room as he took off the jacket he had taken from the soldier.He turned around and met Angel's shocked gaze; he lowered his head following the gaze, and found that the sweater inside him was torn and soaked in blood, and it was now pitch black.Sephiroth couldn't imagine that he had been wearing such a disgusting outfit for so long, so he said unbearably, "You must have water here?"

"You still want to take a bath?!" Angel was shocked, "The most important thing you should do now is to lie down in the infirmary! My God, who can hurt you to such a degree..."

Ignoring the usual ramblings, Sephiroth grabbed the hem of his clothes and took off the sweater neatly, revealing the strong and lean muscles underneath.From the neck, shoulders to waist, the smooth arc runs through a line, full of explosive power.Some of the dried blood clots peeled off, but there were no visible wounds.Angel was relieved, but when he saw Sephiroth staring at his chest, he felt a little strange.

"It doesn't seem to be your blood, it should be." He was thinking, still a little worried, "I can't imagine any existence that can hurt you. If even you can't handle it, then Genesis and I may be in danger." More than good."

"There's no need to belittle yourself."

"what?"

Sephiroth threw down his clothes, and walked to the inner cubicle with his upper body bare.After all, the resident is temporary, and there are no such advanced facilities as hot water pipes, which makes Sephiroth somewhat disappointed.But ice water is better than nothing.He stepped back, "Give me a suit." Fortunately, there is not much difference in their statures, so it's no big deal if they mix clothes.

Angel opened a new sterilized sealed package and handed it over, "The sentence you just said..."

"It's nothing special. I don't think there is such a big gap between us. At least that thing is really difficult to deal with."

"But you still beat it, as always."

The statement strangely silenced Sephiroth.Angel didn't pay much attention to it at first, but when he noticed this, a certain kind of speculation set off a storm in his heart. "No... no... you shouldn't...?"

No denial.

Sephiroth's non-denial is enough to explain something.

For a while, Angel was speechless.He didn't know what to say.On the one hand, it was because it was too frightening—he couldn't imagine that Sephiroth would be defeated; no, maybe it wasn't like that, maybe it was because he was tied with Claude?On the other hand, if that's true - and only if - then isn't Sephiroth now...?

"You... how do you feel?" Angel asked cautiously.

Sephiroth stared at him, as if he wanted to see a flower from Angel's mature face, making Angel feel that he had committed some unforgivable crime.But in the end, Sephiroth just shook his head, "As expected of father and son."

"What does this have to do with Claude?"

"It doesn't matter. But you're finally willing to mention him."

"Sephiroth!"

"Angel, is this really so incomprehensible?"

One topic jumped to another, Angel didn't immediately understand Sephiroth's meaning, he was trying to keep up with the rhythm.If this is a trick to avoid certain problems, it is undoubtedly very successful.In the end, Angel gave up and spread his hands helplessly, "Which thing does 'this matter' refer to?"

"I failed." If he was angry and unwilling at first, then after three days, Sephiroth can be called very calm.Although this shame is still there, since Genesis can live well with this shame and become more courageous as he fights, why not himself?In any case, this is only temporary and will soon be washed away by another win, no big deal. "Worth the surprise? Humans always fail, don't they?"

"But that person is you... No, I'm not saying you're not human..." Angel was a little incoherent.After all, it is Sephiroth's business, why is he the one who is embarrassed? "But you are here right now, retreating unharmed, and that's enough to prove everything. Unless you're going to tell me that an enemy defeated you, treated you mercifully, and released you back intact in the end— Are you trying to convince me like this?"

"..." Apparently Sephiroth also felt that it was a bit ridiculous to say that, and he didn't know how to answer it for a while.After a while, "Is there any news about Genesis?"

Although he was a little dissatisfied with skipping the last topic, Angel still followed him.After all, there are always opportunities later. "A telegram was sent five hours ago. The current leader of Xue Beng has confirmed that he was killed. He is in a nearby station and decides whether to come over depending on the situation. He also asked about your situation. I will reply later."

"What else did he tell you?"

"What can a telegram say?"

"So, he said." Sephiroth said firmly, "How long are you going to keep the matter of Nibelheim a secret?"

"Are you still washing or not!"

Underneath the stern look was an unmistakable weakness, and before Sephiroth could ask any further, Angel had already retreated first.He relaxed, took two steps back, and restlessly brushed his forehead hair behind his head, turned around the room a few times, and turned back to Sephiroth. "Even you know? God, who doesn't know? Does it mean I can't have a little privacy?"

"Anyway, Claude already knows, what do you do?"

"What should I do? What can I do? It's as if the decision is in my hands!" Angel's mentality completely collapsed.Sephiroth had never seen his friend lose his temper like this, at least, never took it out on others like this. "It doesn't matter anymore." At a certain moment, he suddenly calmed down, like a string snapped, "Let him alone. He can do whatever he wants, I have no problem." Whoever he was referring to, they all Know.

"I don't think it's your fault. You don't need to take responsibility that doesn't belong to you."

Angel looked at him in surprise and confusion, and his tone became extremely sarcastic, "I don't understand. It's not my fault, nor his fault, so whose is it?"

"..."

"Sephiroth, that's not the problem, it's not even about Nibelheim. I always thought I was right—I don't think I was wrong until now, when my judgment was the only and most appropriate, There is no better choice. It was the same at Wutai, they attacked the employees of Shinra first, and they started the war first, but why did they look at those dead people, those women and children who died of starvation and disease, Would I feel... unbearable?"

"You wouldn't be so sentimental before." Sephiroth interrupted him, "You know what kind of existence Shinra is. Even if it is not Shinra, there will be other organizations and other disputes. As long as humans are alive, they will fight for it." We fought for resources. We defeated Wutai, that’s all.”

"It's just... that?" Angel asked hesitantly.

"Yes." Sephiroth said firmly.

Angel shook his head and threw himself on the rollaway bed. "Sephiroth, sometimes I think...everything in this world has a price. There is one kind of giving and rewarding, and another kind of glory and hatred. Either now or in the future, one day we will all have to pay for it. Pay for what you did.”

Sephiroth didn't answer.

"I'm already paying the price. I thought maybe one day, I'd die on the battlefield, some people would cheer and some people would cry, and that would be the best ending for me. But it's not, it's never going to be like that. Simple, now it's falling on someone I care about. Fair enough, isn't it? I've let some people lose their loved ones, so I deserve it too."

"That's why you left him?"

"Abandoned? Oh——" Angel suddenly smiled. I don't know whether it was funny or self-deprecating, but that smile made Sephiroth very uncomfortable. "I didn't abandon him. But I know, I will lose him soon." him."

There was silence between them for a while, probably because they really had nothing to say.After listening to the wind for a while, Angel finally asked: "Claude... is he okay? He couldn't stand up just now, how is his foot?"

"How do I know?" Sephiroth asked back.

Angel stood up suddenly, the ominous premonition was stronger than ever. "You just—"

"I followed you here just now, is there any problem?" Sephiroth shrugged indifferently as if he didn't realize there was any problem at all.

"You left him outside, in a harsh environment dozens of degrees below zero, and you knew he couldn't move himself?!" growled angrily, "I never knew you would make such a joke!"

"Oh. So now you know."

"you--!"

Angel clenched his fists tightly, as if he wanted to punch Sephiroth hard.But more important matters preoccupied him completely, and he left Sephiroth, smashed open the door, and rushed out into the snow.

Sephiroth sneered and closed the door.

Silly, they are not the only two of them in the whole camp.

There is indeed water in the compartment, but it is bottled water with a slightly different density than pure water.Heat is at a premium here, and fuel is rarely used to melt snow.Sephiroth didn't think too much, opened one of the buckets, lifted it up and poured it on his head, the ice made him shiver.The running water splashed on the floor, gradually converging into pale red puddles.The silver hair was tangled and could only be dealt with later, so he began to wipe the blood stains under wet conditions.

Sephiroth breathes hot air, water droplets drip from the tip of his nose and jaw, tick-tock.He lowered his eyes, the towel resting on his chest.

There was once a place torn apart by wild beasts, but now there is no trace left.

He didn't think that Valentine would be merciful enough to heal him, it could only have been done by Claude after such a brutal fight to the death.He didn't know how Claude did this, and what price he paid, but Claude chose him, which is certain.

But should he believe him because of that?

What if all this is just part of a larger conspiracy?Sephiroth couldn't understand Claude's choice, giving up the freedom at his fingertips, giving up a life without fear, just because he "cares" about him?He really wanted to take full control of Claude, but not in this way, not in such a way that logic could not explain the reason.

Reason has been clamoring in the mind, once the deceit starts, it will not stop, there will only be one lie after another, everything should be snuffed out in the cradle.But Sephiroth just felt that this time, only this time, this person was an exception.

But he clearly knows better than anyone else that what is contrary to logic and that only he believes is just wishful thinking, and one day it will be broken by a more cruel reality.Because that's how he came to life, this is how the world taught him to live.

Another bucket of water was poured head-on.

In any case, all this will be answered after he defeats the man.

When Angel ran back to the barracks from the wasteland, the nurse was holding a bucket of blood with some steam coming out. When he saw it, his heart was pulled hard, and he felt faintly frightened.Probably heard about the relationship between the father and son, the nurse explained that the blood bleeds when the leather boots were torn off to thaw out, because the frostbite is very serious, but they will not feel pain, but this only made Angel feel more uncomfortable.The nurse, who was used to the miserable situation, couldn't bear it, and quickly walked away with the bucket in her arms.They will wait for the blood to freeze, and then throw it a little farther away. The smell will cause some trouble.

Angel was waiting at the door of the small room. The doctor wrapped bandages around Claude's legs and feet, gave him several injections of antibiotics, and finally suspended him with saline and some unknown drugs.During the whole process for more than an hour, Claude did not make a sound, and Angel could only guess what was going on inside from the sound of scissors and unpacking.

The doctor found out about Angel's presence when he went out, and Angel immediately hissed.them
