Yuna suddenly recalled the entire experience of meeting Muzan Kibutsuji.
She had just entered the black organization for training and had just met Jason. After accidentally activating her ability and causing time travel, she found that she was not in the familiar black organization.
The little girl luckily landed in a rich area in another world.
She raised her head blankly and saw a person who had just passed by paused and walked towards her.
It was a man—an extremely handsome man.
He seemed to be a gentleman and polite, and when she pointed out that he smelled of blood, he told her that he was injured because of an encounter with gangsters.
She had just arrived here at that time, and when she saw that he was very dignified and gentle, she believed his words easily.
He takes her back to his mansion until she discovers some inconsistencies, investigates in secret, and discovers his secret.
She even almost revealed the matter and told the family who was being deceived by him that this man was not a good match at all and could not produce love. All he had was lies and all he wanted was profit.
When he gets what he wants, he will destroy it all.
However she failed.
At that time, she was completely unable to compete with the ghosts under his command, and her hand tendons and hamstrings were easily severed, and she was sent to him.
"Why are you doing this?"
the man said with a sigh.
"I've obviously kept you here for so long. I rarely let a useless human being stay here." "
Why did you betray me?"
She looked at him calmly and silently, expressing "like" in his expression. "There is no fluctuation at all.
She felt disgusted by her love for toys that were at the mercy of others.
So he seemed to laugh happily, and the next moment the outer skin of civilization was completely torn off, and within a few seconds, the sharp teeth tore off her limbs.
"You are so disobedient, which really makes me unhappy. If you were better behaved, you might be able to stay by my side longer. I can also choose to use a gentle way to turn you into my kind and stay with me forever. , obtain the eternal life that countless people hope for."
His eyes were like a poisonous snake that has seen its prey, cold and without any emotions that humans should have, only cruel and bloody.
Those words were just sweet words spit out by colorful poisonous snakes. Eve believed these words and offended God, and was punished.
"But when things develop like this, I can only change my mind. You probably hate ghosts, so what if you become a ghost yourself?"
He said, "I really want to see what happens after you become a ghost. Look like that."
Are you willing to degenerate, or just stay away from society, just to avoid hurting others?
Which one will she choose?
The man became curious.
The process of becoming a ghost was many times more painful than she imagined. She began to have a crazy desire for flesh and blood, and that desire overtook her over and over again, while the man watched coldly.
Later, a swordsman discovered this place. She picked up the blood-stained Nichirin Sword and wanted to do something - whether it was suicide or a desperate fight, but before that, she returned to the original world.
After that, she had this kind of morbid vigilance and suspicion for a long time.
Jason noticed something strange about her the night she returned. At that time, she had lost the ability to react due to the inhumane torture. She could not even focus her eyes. She had a will to die, as if she could still feel the pain.
But Jason said he wanted her to live. He hugged her tightly, almost begging for her to live, even if she moved, she would give him some response of being alive.
She promised Jason to stay alive.
She came to see Jason alive, but Jason broke the promise.
Yuna had a splitting headache and could only maintain a superficial calmness, but her breathing was already trembling slightly.
...die.
die.
What's wrong with dying here?
She is so tired. Everything she did was meaningless.
The person she wanted to protect did not receive timely rescue and died a few months before she came back.
She was not afraid of pain, nor was she afraid of death, but she could clearly feel the almost suffocating feeling of powerlessness and despair when most of her spiritual pillars collapsed.
Yuna gave up all pretense in an instant.
She stopped controlling her heartbeat, stopped controlling her expression, stopped controlling everything, and allowed the emotions of collapse to pervade.
... Professor Things she has encountered before are being superimposed on her body -
but this is a passive skill that will always work once it is formed. If the balance between suppression and output cannot be achieved, it will have a great impact on her mental state. Big problem.
Charles' words flashed through his mind, and were quickly covered up among many complicated and chaotic thoughts.
It hurts. She started to hurt again. Because I mistrusted others and believed in his pretended gentleness and politeness, my limbs were torn off, my heart was dug out of my body, and I turned into a ghost that could never stand in the sun - from the heart to the limbs,
everything was In pain.
Yuna could have countless ways to leave this place, and there were also countless ways to get rid of the robot in an instant, but the huge amount of information and sharp emotions in her mind kept her pinned to the spot, unable to move.
This will kill you.
What's wrong with dying?
No...she needed to calm down. She needs to analyze, besides the shadow of death, what else is the trigger?
-->>
She pinched the tender flesh of her palm with her nails, and uncontrollably recalled in her mind the scene where Tim left her here alone and turned around to save a strange boy without hesitation. .
***
Wayne Tower.
Bruce slept through the board meeting as usual.
It's just that he couldn't sleep today. He felt nervous for no reason, and even his heartbeat was a little faster than usual.
This is not normal.
Bruce's heart sank slightly, thinking of Tim and Yuna who were outside now. He was just about to make a call to them or contact Tim directly, when he glimpsed a corner of the chaos outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
...It seemed to be a huge robot with powerful firepower.
This level of destruction is already worthy of a large-scale operation by the Joker.
Bruce's hand holding the phone tightened suddenly.
He stood up and said, "Tim and the others are still outside now. I need to find them. That's it for today's meeting. It's over and the meeting is over!"
No one has any objections. They all have their own relatives and interests that they care about. What's more, the monster is far away from them now, but who knows if it will move here soon.
People were fleeing, but Bruce's car was going against the flow of people, heading towards the center of the chaos. The display on the locator made his heart sink to the bottom of the valley.
It's not that he doesn't believe that Tim can't protect Yuna, but in the face of this level of disaster-
human beings seem particularly small.
He told himself to take a deep breath and not to panic. If he panics, it will be all over.
He must go to the scene himself to confirm their safety.
No matter what happens to Tim or Yuna, nothing can happen to them.
***
The human brain thinks very quickly, especially when it is chaotic and disorderly, and the information that passes through is uncountable.
The moment Tim saw the cannonballs being prepared, he quickly turned around. Regardless of the danger of his identity being exposed, and without having time to consider whether he would be implicated by the cannonballs, he ran as fast as he could in the direction of Yuna. go.
Before he started to act, he accidentally caught her gaze.
There was a dead silence in it, like a quagmire under the eternal night, filled with suffocating despair.
Dark and oppressive, a despair that cannot be dissipated.
His heart suddenly throbbed, and the unknown emotions made him unable to even think. At this moment, he only knew one thing -
to save her.
At least let her know that someone is here to save her.
——Someone will try their best to save her when she is in danger.
The heat wave has arrived, accompanied by a very loud sound breaking through the air.
Yuna closed her eyes, feeling so relaxed for the first time.
She even wanted to laugh a little. I want to laugh for no reason.
it's all over.
Everything will return to the boundless darkness brought by death, and nothing will be left.
...
There seemed to be silence between heaven and earth for a moment.
The expected pain did not come, the heat wave was far away from her in an instant, and she could only hear a huge explosion - and this sound was left behind her.
As if someone suddenly pressed the volume button, the explosion sound that could have shocked people to the point of dizziness suddenly became inaudible.
Only the sound of hunting wind was playing in her ears, but she was not blown by the strong wind, as if someone had carefully separated the cold wind from her.
Yuna could feel that she was being hugged gently like someone was protecting a fragile thing. The strength was like hugging a kitten, but the sense of security was continuously transmitted through the heat on the visitor's chest, and she was even comforted for a moment. her emotions.
The divinity of the whole body is so obvious, and the gentleness is obvious.
The side effects of the "mental cage"... disappeared.
No, it didn't disappear, but it was temporarily covered up, wrapped in an extremely gentle substance, and soothed patiently like a child with a bad temper.
Yuna raised her eyes and saw that she was softly covered by a scarlet cloak, isolated from the heat wave and the cold wind from high altitude. She was already far away from the ground, and her arms with smooth and perfect muscle lines easily lifted her up and put her in the right position with confidence. There was no effort, but it was so strong that no one could worry about it.
She suddenly became speechless, her heart beat rapidly, her tear ducts were stimulated for a moment, and she held back her tears.
She instantly understood who this person was.
The god who was as handsome as the sun god Apollo looked at her seriously. He did not explain why he came over in time because he was far away in the metropolis and never interfered in Gotham's affairs. He also did not say how hard he worked to save people. He had just finished a battle. Even though he wanted to take a break, he came without hesitation and protected her safely under the gunfire.
He just lowered his eyes and looked at her with the blue of the morning sky, and said apologetically and tenderly: "I'm sorry, I'm late."
He was nine years late.
Fortunately, this time, he arrived.
