As I watched the blood gushing from my hand, covering the totem on the door, making its light brighter and more colorful, I suddenly understood something.

Understand the origin of everything, and understand the coming darkness itself.I understand that the priest and other people have mentioned to me many times the truth of the incident that can be called the "catastrophe" back then.

It only takes a moment to understand.It may be because the previous clues have been stripped down so clearly that there is only one line, a clue that connects them, to fully explain it.

But I still couldn't believe it, didn't dare to equate myself with something so ethereal.

I was skeptical until I could confirm it with my own eyes.

The shutter door rose, opening access to the dark room within.I turned my head and glanced at Triangle Head, who seemed to be looking down at my hand.I raised my hand and watched the blood trickle from my fingers.

He may be worried about me.I suddenly thought this way, but maybe it was because the atmosphere was too solemn, and I was fully focused on more abstract but more important things, and I didn't feel any pain at all.

"It'll heal itself, don't worry."

I felt that the triangle head cared more about my wound than I did myself, so I smiled at him again, then walked into the inner room.

Now, as before, I have a strong desire to hope that the triangle head will go ahead of me, help me open the way, and help me face everything I don't know.Because I know that in the end, the only one who has to face and solve all this is me.

As long as I know that he will always stand behind me like now and accompany me through what is going to happen, that's enough.

It's not completely dark inside.The faint red light flickered on and off, and moved gently as if breathing.I don't know, in such a scene, whether the red light on my face is also scary.

In the deepest part of the world.

origin.

right here.It turned out that I had already been here.I was so close to the beginning of this world that I didn't even realize that I was brushing shoulders with the evil that cursed the whole of Silent Hill.

God's fear.

Just like what happened to me here before, when I approached that huge magic circle, it also approached me from the darkness.Although it was different from what it used to be, I recognized it at a glance.

After all, it was the exact same face as mine.

Another Xavier, illuminated by a red light, stopped on the other side of the circle when I stopped.

This magic circle is like an abyss.We look at each other across it.

Its appearance remains the same as mine, with some changes.Even my hair, which grew longer after I came to Silent Hill, was copied as it was.

But this time, it is used to decorate this pair of skins exactly like mine. It is no longer a washed-up khaki overalls jacket, and whitish jeans with a tear.

It is wearing a red church robe that drags to the ground, and it can be seen that it is still barefoot when walking.The color of the robe is more vivid under the red light from the magic circle.In addition to the phoenix tail feather pendant hanging on its chest that is no different from that of church personnel, it also wears various indistinct but gorgeous ornaments on its body.The robe was even more complicated and delicate than the one worn by the priest I saw before, and it was covered with faint dark patterns.

It was dressed up like a gorgeous offering.

It stood there, staring at me blankly.

I looked at it too, and slowly, whispered its name:

"fear."

Its expression was originally empty and indifferent, but after hearing this word, it actually smiled.

I thought it was creepy at first.But after seeing it clearly, I was stunned.

Its smile is different from anything I've seen before in this same place.Before, its smile was distorted and weird, lifeless, like the kind of grimace that would suddenly appear in a horror movie.

But now, I actually feel that his smile is a little gentle.Even the green eyes, which had been widened in my face, narrowed slightly in its face.

This smile gave me an illusion.It seems that it is very relieved that I finally found it again after going around in such a big circle, gaining insight into everything it has experienced in the past, and understanding the truth of its riots.

It also seems that he let go of his heart and can finally fight with me again.

Without me moving, it took several steps forward until it reached the center of the magic circle where the red light became brighter and brighter.The pair of bare feet stood at the intersection of the phoenix tail feather emblem, and then slowly left the ground.

I looked up and saw it was literally flying, floating.As if there was a force pulling it from above, it raised its head and opened its arms.

This scene reminds me of the mural in the church hall.

The flying phoenix covered in fire.

It frowned in pain, and flames ignited on its arms. It was indeed like burning wings, but it was the same as before and many zombies. The robe and even the complicated accessories on it were not damaged in the slightest.

The flame spread rapidly until its whole body was burning with raging flames.It lowered its raised head.

It is now suspended high in the air and can already look down on me.After the unimaginable torture just now, it looked even paler, even in the red light.But it still raised the corners of its mouth and smiled at me.

This time the smile was even more sinister, as if provocative.

I know, the battle is on.

Facing it again, I am no longer in a hurry like the first time.This is not the reason why I only had a stick at that time, but now I am fully armed with a triangular head, but because I have long been mentally prepared to face all this.

I took down the rifle, took aim and was about to shoot when I saw it raise its hand.After weighing quickly in my heart, I stopped insisting, put down the gun and ran to the side quickly.

Almost instantly, when it raised its hand, a ribbon-shaped flame quickly spread towards this side.If I hadn't run away in advance, I would definitely not be able to dodge at that speed, and the flame was right where I was standing just now, twisting and burning.

Although he escaped, the flame had no tendency to go out for a while on the floor without any fuel.It separates me from the triangular head, spread out on either side.

"Split and attack it!" I yelled at the triangle head, then took aim and fired.

I was afraid that the bullet would do little harm to it.But fortunately, it seemed that after being attacked, it still froze for a while.But when the triangular-headed knife cut down, it still fluttered and dodged.

After dodging, it turned towards me and attacked again.

It is high above the ground, and even if it is only the "fear" of God, it seems to have some characteristics of God.Facing its attack, I didn't have any confidence to fight back, so I had to dodge blindly.

It seems that its attack is only aimed at me, this homologue that exists in parallel with it.It seems that it can't feel the existence of the triangular head, and won't launch any attacks on it.But for every slash or stab of the triangular head, it can be flexibly and even easily dodged.

And it hit me a lot harder.After a while, the entire room was almost completely surrounded by flames.

The smile on its face also became more and more violent as the attack became more and more rampant.The frequency of attacks is also increasing. I have been running away, and I can hardly find the opportunity to shoot at it. Even if I can barely hit it, the bullets that hit it are useless as if they just disappeared.

how so!

If things go on like this, no matter how many bullets I have, there will be times when I run out.This thing is too scary, it can't be killed at all, just like those zombies before, no, it's even scarier than zombies.

Zombies die immediately after being decapitated or headshot, which means they still have weaknesses.But the one in front of me seems to have no weaknesses.

weakness……

etc!I figured it out!I figured it out!

I slung my rifle over my back and pulled out my fire ax with my backhand.This is the only cold weapon I carry, because it is easy to use, so even if it is heavy on my back, I have never abandoned it.

Even if the church is full of lies, even if they have put me to death, caused "fear" to get out of control, let the curse fall, and want to use me, I am willing to believe them one last time.

"To completely break the curse, you need to kill it with your blood. I believe you have also discovered that blood has a special effect."

Putting all other problems aside, I had to try all possibilities in order to overcome the "fear".

I turned the fire ax around, pointing the blade toward me, and glanced at my hands.

The blood on my fingers might not be enough this time, so I was cruel and moved my palm to the ax——

not good!

Before my hand touched the ax, and before my blood stained it, I saw another flame flying towards me out of the corner of my eye.

My heart tightened, it would be too late to run again at this time, and I rolled on the ground in desperation, but I still couldn't escape completely.The flame rubbed against my arm, and the scorching sensation made me feel pain. When I let go, the ax slipped out.

"Fuck! Broken!"

I only have this cold weapon, and it is impossible to find a way to smear my own blood on the bullet.I wanted to run to pick up my axe, but my clothes were already on fire.

I had no choice but to roll on the ground a few times before I stood up.During this period, I have to avoid the fireballs it throws and the like, rolling around on the ground like a stranded salted fish, in a state of embarrassment.

When I saw that the fire was finally extinguished, I hurried to my feet.

But when I looked up suddenly, I saw it leaning over.right in front of me.

The flames burning on it almost melted me.The heat wave came, and I had to squint my eyes.In the only remaining gap, except for the firelight, there is only the face that originally belonged to me, and the blurred smile on it.

The author has something to say: Good evening everyone~

As I write, I feel that Hazeville is quite interesting... emmmmm...
