Victor did not see how the other party lost, but when he arrived, he saw Aoko, who was several times more miserable than Kuonji Yuzu, and looked like she was about to die. Half of the injuries were basically the result of his own overdrawing. Victor was met with a reproachful gaze from Youzhu and fell into self-doubt. Was it wrong to teach Aozaki Aoko such a desperate fighting style? …… When Aozaki Aoko felt extremely thirsty and regained consciousness from the endless dark nightmare, it was already noon the next day. The sunlight shone through the curtains onto her face, and as the wound healed, she felt tingling and numb, and subconsciously wanted to scratch it. But then, she stiffened and held back her thoughts because she could hear the conversation between the two people in her ears. "The external injuries seem to be serious, but it is mainly due to the overdraft of magic circuits. The recovery ability has been greatly weakened." "But it's hard for her to die. After all, it's a magic seal of the Aozaki family. Even if it's in pieces, it will keep her alive." This voice... is Wen Bingyongli?
"Ah, I'll trouble you this time." Victor's voice followed, "Arizuma and I are not very good at sewing spirit threads. Frankly speaking, her appearance last night scared our Kusajuro." "Nothing, this is my duty after all." "For so many years, the church in Misaki City has been protected by the administrators—" Wen Bingyongli paused for a moment, then said, "Anyway, if you need help in this regard, feel free to contact me." Then, accompanied by the sound of footsteps and a door closing, the room fell into silence again. Aozaki Aoko's eyelashes trembled slightly. Just as she was about to open her eyes, a cold voice suddenly sounded beside her: "Is it still not working?" Youzhu suddenly spoke. "what." Victor responded with his usual calm voice: "This is the maximum help the church can provide - well, it's normal." "Although the church considers the Phantasma to be heretics that must be exterminated, the golden wolf has signed a contract with Aozaki Touko after all... Since the contract has been signed, it should be considered as Aozaki Touko's property." "After all, this is an internal struggle of the Aozaki family, a magic family. Therefore, it is not reasonable for others to interfere." As a prerequisite for the battle for the succession of magicians, this matter itself needs to be carried out in secret. Under the premise that it is impossible to introduce variables of upper-level power, it is natural to protect oneself. Rather, in Victor's opinion, the other party's willingness to provide necessary help and support unconditionally was already a good thing. "In that case, the same applies to you." "Hmm?" Victor met the other's gaze, seemingly puzzled. And Kuonji Yuju just turned her head away silently, not looking at him: "That kind of thing will not be lost twice in the same place." “Pain is something you can get used to.”
On this point, Youzhu, who has magic marks engraved all over his body and is in constant pain, has a say. "Moreover, compared to pain, what it fears more is the confusion caused by your ability to hurt it." The more intelligent a being is, the more it relies on thinking rather than instinct. For example, when faced with a sudden car, cats and dogs often react by running away, but the subconscious reaction of many humans is... it's over. Then stand there motionless - it sounds ridiculous, but for humans, when the brain goes blank, relying on instinct becomes a luxury. In Youzhu's opinion, the golden wolf obviously belongs to this category. Faced with being suppressed and even brutalized by Victor, its brain went completely blank and it could not think of anything except running. However, this kind of fear... is really easy to suppress. Being at a loss as to what to do will only happen the first time. As long as you think about it and prepare yourself mentally, it will hardly happen again next time. Even if you are really afraid of pain, you can suppress it with your will. "so what." Victor heard the other party's hidden meaning, raised his eyebrows and said lightly. Kuonji Yuzu silently stared at Victor, her eyes full of stubbornness: "This is a struggle within the Aozaki family..." "Tsk...what you said..." "I didn't know. I thought you were the one who defeated Beowulf yesterday." "We haven't lost yet, why are you so discouraged? At least we have defended the barrier, right?" Victor hugged his chest as if trying to encourage the other party, but suddenly, he was silent for a while, and suddenly laughed: "Ah, so that's how it is." "You knew from the beginning that the grandfather of the Aozaki family would never take action, right?" With a helpless smile, he looked at Qingzi, who was lying on the bed like a mummy, and mocked, "No matter whether the magic barrier is broken or not, he will not take action." "From the moment he passed his magic to Aoko, he knew that one day there would be a day when the two sisters would fight each other, and only the victor would be qualified to inherit..." "..." Jiuyuan Temple Youzhu was silent. She was silent for a while, then suddenly said, "Qingzi is the most suitable person to inherit magic." "There's no doubt about that." "Only, if Orange can prove himself." "If she can prove that even if she is not suitable for this magic, she can obtain it through some means and control it... then he will approve of it." That's very nice to say. But in the final analysis, isn't it just that at the beginning, the elder sister was thought to have better talent, so she was naturally cultivated, and then suddenly it was discovered that although the younger sister was less talented, she had a better personality, so she simply let the two sisters compete for the crown prince. It's really cold, but from the perspective of a magician who values inheritance, there's nothing wrong with it. However, Orange should have realized it.
If she was still hesitant, she would have planned to fight for it step by step. But last night, when she and Aoko were fighting like that, Aozaki's grandfather didn't take any action. With Chengzi's IQ, even if she didn't think of it for a moment last night, it's impossible for her to be kept in the dark after returning. So Youzhu thinks that next time Orange just needs to train the werewolf, and he will attack immediately, and more decisively and cruelly than before? Well, it's possible. Once you understand your grandfather's intention, it doesn't matter whether the magic is in Qingzi's body. Because no matter what, she needs to kill Aoko to get recognition. Then you can't just wait to die so pessimistically. really... Victor walked over with amusement and patted her on the head unceremoniously in front of her surprised look. "I think Aoko has something to say." "If she were awake now, she would definitely be very dissatisfied." "You just sentenced her to death." I'm not only unconvinced, I even want to jump up and punch you, okay? Lying on the bed, Aozaki Aoko wanted to clench her fists, but unfortunately her body almost completely disobeyed her. After struggling for a long time, she simply opened her eyes in frustration, looked at the ceiling reflected by the sunlight, and suddenly her mood calmed down. In fact, she had already taken fate for granted. When I was fighting against Orange yesterday and was knocked down, I thought about another possibility, but I didn't regret it. She is actually quite similar to Youzhu in some sense, that is, they are both quite stubborn. It’s just that Youzhu’s stubbornness lies in her adherence to the outside world and tradition, while she is stubborn in her self-willedness. Thinking of this, her mind suddenly became active. So, if that's the case, even if Youzhu was knocked down and faced a desperate situation, she should have fought back as stubbornly as she did. Being depressed is not her character at all, right?! Then why did she warn Victor so seriously? Looking at the ceiling, Aozaki Aoko blinked and suddenly realized a shocking fact. She was so solemn because she hoped that Victor would retreat from this war which involved life and death and in which victory was not guaranteed at all! In other words, she actually...actually! Caring about each other? ! ! Aozaki Aoko opened her eyes wide and suddenly felt a strong sadness. Victor's life is life, but her life is not life? ! Kuonji Yuju! You complain every day that I am too accommodating to Kusajuro, you... you...
She suddenly thought of Youzhu's mother, a witch who gave birth to Youzhu willingly and died because she fell in love with a man. For the first time, her brain, which had always been straight-forward, worked rapidly and realized a terrible fact. Ah. Witch... Aren’t they all love-brained? …… If Aozaki Aoko's wild thoughts were noticed by Youzhu, she would probably look at her quietly for a while, then turn around and get a lively toad and stuff it into the other person's mouth and brain. If there is something wrong with your brain, you need to treat it. Kuonji Yuju has always believed in this. Unfortunately, she didn't know what Aozaki Aoko was thinking at the moment. She only knew that with her persistence, she was destined not to escape from the battlefield or ignore Aoko's death. If the other party was really determined to kill Qingzi, then she would rush forward without hesitation even if it was against the golden wolf who was doomed to fail. But she didn't want the guy in front of her to be like her. do not know why. I just don't want it. Kuonji Yuzu tilted her head, maybe because he saved her yesterday. Naturally, when the two noticed that Aoko had woken up, Victor left in silence first. Facing Aoko's questions, she told them what happened yesterday. While emphasizing that Victor saved her, she also silently concealed some things about him. Such as the evil flame. Red pupils. She actually had some guesses in her mind. For example, it’s not surprising that Victor could be a demon who has been “possessed” by a demon, or that he has simply signed a contract with the devil. Many types of black magic before the Age of Gods involved demons, and necromancy still has a branch that involves summoning demons, but it is too dangerous and is not allowed in basic subjects. Not to mention the people in the inheritance department who come into contact with demons every day. In the eyes of a magician, demons, undead spirits, and other things are acceptable and can be "controlled". If it weren't for the fact that the Dead Apostles could easily leak secrets by attacking humans through bloodsucking, and that group of ancestors wanted to destroy humans every day, the Magician's Association probably wouldn't even bother to pay attention to the Dead Apostles, or even seek cooperation with them. What's more, according to Lidel's previous investigation, Victor's Douglas family is very likely a demon hunting family. Demon hunting... The early demon hunting is not the same as the current demon exorcism. Nowadays, exorcism requires qualifications and relies on spiritualism and magic. And the demon hunting families that had appeared in the Age of Gods...
It depends on the devil itself. With such thoughts in mind, Kuonji Arizuma naturally raised her eyes, and the next second she saw Aoko's eyes staring at her, which were gradually becoming subtle. "What's that look in your eyes?" "Tsk, nothing much, I just suddenly feel that a hero saving a beautiful girl is indeed an extremely important part of any fairy tale." "…Do you have such an idea? It seems that your mind is unusually active right now." Kuonji Yuju stared at Aozaki Aoko quietly and said dissatisfiedly: "In this case, you might as well think more about how to overcome the difficulties in front of you." "You are our only chance to turn the tables right now."
