Pain!
Sour!
swelling!
heat!
After falling into a coma, Laki had a strange dream that was both terrifying and extremely Xiangyan.
In the dream, he became a tyrant with incredible power. Not only did he have supreme power, he could attack cities with impunity and kill those who dared to defy his will in the most brutal way. At the same time, he lived an extremely luxurious life, enjoying all kinds of fine wine, delicious food and all kinds of beauties every day.
But at the end of this dream, he suddenly discovered a familiar face in his huge "harem".
Clare?!
Looking at the figure holding Claymore slowly walking towards him, Laki felt a cold air rushing from his feet to Tianling Gai, and immediately kept retreating in panic.
Even he didn't know why he was running.
But unfortunately, this game of chase and escape did not last long.
When Clare caught up, he immediately raised Claymore and struck it down fiercely.
moment!
Laki woke up from the strange dream, instantly sat up from lying on his back, and let out a scream.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!!!"
But when he regained his composure, sweating profusely, and found himself lying in an unknown cave with a bonfire lit next to him, he realized that what he had just said was just a dream, and he let out a long breath.
But before the boy could wipe the sweat from his forehead, he heard a familiar voice coming from his ear. "You seem to be having a nightmare?"
"Ai... Mr. Allen?!"
Laki turned around suddenly, becoming extremely nervous, fearing that he would be "socially dead" if he said something he shouldn't have said during his dream just now.
"Relax, don't be nervous, I won't tell anyone what happened at Holy City, especially Clare." Allen pursed his lips and comforted meaningfully.
It's a pity that Laki, instead of relaxing after hearing these words, showed an angry expression and asked angrily, "You still have the nerve to mention this matter?"
"Why not? Have you forgotten how you killed that female Awakened Being before? If you didn't have the experience that night, do you think you can control Sword of Desire?" Allen asked with a half-smile.
"Desire..."
As soon as this word was mentioned, Laki instantly fell into silence. He lowered his head and looked at the black sword placed beside him, with a complicated expression in his eyes.
As a person who has personally experienced the power of this sword, it is naturally impossible for him not to know how he obtained the recognition of "Divine Artifact".
But because of this, he felt embarrassed and embarrassed.
Allen undoubtedly noticed the boy's subconscious reaction and immediately responded with a smile, "Yes! Desire! Do you know? Most people in this world actually have no right to choose. They are forced to run for survival all their lives, that is, to fill their stomachs, have a sheltered house, and warm clothes. But you are different. You now have the power that many people dream of changing their destiny."
"The power to change destiny?"
Laki blinked, a little unsure of the meaning of this sentence.
"Do you still remember what you said when you first met Clare? Remember your helplessness and weakness when facing Yoma, and your despair when you were exiled by the villagers? All of this was caused by a lack of sufficient power. Just imagine, if you had the power to kill Yoma, would your parents and relatives still die? Would those villagers dare to use violence to expel you? The answer is obviously no. So weakness is the original sin!"
Allen nonchalantly instilled some ideas and concepts into the boy in front of him.
He wanted to know if this "male protagonist" who once had a weak presence in the original plot suddenly gained enough power, would he take another completely opposite path.
Even the ambition to conquer or even rule the world.
If that's the case, Allen wouldn't mind bringing it to the forefront, thereby completely changing the direction of the future history of this world.
Unfortunately, Laki is still too young and cannot fully understand the profound meaning of the phrase "weakness is the original sin". He just sighed with a wry smile, "Oh - I'm sorry, Mr. Allen, I don't know. In fact, I am very confused now, and I don't know what to do after I gain strength."
"Then have you ever considered leaving Clare to start a life journey of your own?" Allen prompted with a half-smile.
"Leave Clare? Why!" Laki was stunned for a moment.
Allen chuckled and explained, "Because you two were not the same person from the beginning. What Clare wants is revenge. Along the way, you will encounter all kinds of powerful enemies beyond your imagination. The reason why she chose to take you with her before was more because she saw the shadow of her childhood in you, and she wanted to feel the state of mind of Teresa back then."
"Who is Teresa?" Laki obviously heard this name for the first time, with a curious expression on his face.
"If Clare at that time is compared to you now, then Teresa's position is equivalent to Clare now. The two of them also went from strangers to familiarity, until they became the only support for each other." Allen did not hide anything and gave the answer straightforwardly.
"You mean, Clare was also adopted by Claymore back then?" Laki's eyes widened in surprise.
Allen nodded without thinking, "Yes! For Clare, Teresa even betrayed the organization and fought against Warrior who kept coming to attack him."
"Then... what will be their final outcome?" Laki asked nervously.
"Teresa died! He died at the hands of a woman in Subjugation Team who broke through her limits in battle and became Awakened Beings. Since then, Clare joined the organization and became a Claymore, and vowed to Revenge. Claymore usually doesn't have a good outcome. Tell me, are you prepared to face Clare's death in battle and spend the rest of your life carrying the hatred? If not, it would be better to leave as soon as possible."
After saying this, Allen ignored Laki's reaction and turned his attention to the entrance to the outside.
I saw Helen, who had short shawl hair, walked in from outside at some point, sat down next to the campfire, laid out a few prepared fish, and complained with a tired face, "Why do I have to prepare dinner when I am exhausted after training for a day? This is not fair! At least everyone should take turns."
"No way, who made you touch the threshold first?" Allen shrugged his shoulders innocently.
"Damn! You want to complain about my simple mind and weak limbs, right?" Helen turned over Byakugan angrily.
If you follow the relationship between Nen abilities and character of Hisoka, you can tell at a glance that she is an out-and-out Enhancement type.
So after simple development, I immediately learned a move called "Explosion Sword".
To put it simply, it is to fully awaken the two arms, hold the sword with both hands and inject Life Energy into the sword body, and chop it down with Thunder, injecting energy into the opponent's body and causing double destruction from the inside out.
Because the area that was hit was bloody and bloody as if it had been blasted by a bomb, it was named "Explosion Sword".
It can be said that among the four Warrior, Helen is the first person to complete the development of Life Energy.
Although the power is still somewhat unsatisfactory and requires a long period of training and running-in, the basic combat ideas are already very clear.
Allen's first impression of this cheerful and honest woman was quite good, and she immediately replied with a slight smile, "No. What I mean is that since you have completed the development of Life Energy, you have more free time, and you will naturally allocate it to deal with these daily chores."
"Then why not you? I see that you are doing nothing all day long."
Helen As he spoke, he took off a series of protective equipment such as shoulder pads, cloak, greaves and shoes without any impact. He only wore a white tights and lay down with bare feet without a ladylike image.
It can be seen that she is quite exhausted after a hard day of training.
Especially the consumption of Life Energy will put a huge burden on the body, and even Claymore with demon power can't bear it.
Before Allen could say anything, Milia, Deneve and Clare also walked in from the cave door.
Like Helen, the three of them had obviously just taken a bath by the river. Their hair looked a little wet, and the remaining moisture on their bodies made their white tights looming, full of indescribable temptation.
This scene immediately made Laki, who had already tasted the taste of a woman, his heart beat faster, and strong desire surged from the bottom of his heart. He quickly lowered his head and did not dare to look at her, for fear that he would have a strong physiological reaction.
"Huh? Boy, are you awake?" Milia glanced at the big boy in surprise.
"Yeah!"
Laki hugged his knees with both hands and nodded slightly.
Because only this action can cover up the small tent propped up by his lower body.
After all, the function of Sword of Desire is not only driven by desire, but also amplifies the desire in the holder's heart.
"Laki, how do you feel now? There is nothing uncomfortable, right?" Clare asked with a concerned look.
Laki quickly shook his head vigorously. "No, Clare. I'm fine, but I'm just a little hungry."
"In that case, let's eat two more grilled fishes soon."
Milia didn't notice the boy's twinkling eyes. He walked to the campfire and sat down, preparing to use the heat generated by the flames to dry out the remaining moisture on his body.
After the other two people also sat down, Allen then asked, "How is the progress today?"
"Not bad! I already have a complete idea about my Ability Development. What I need to do next is to keep improving and finally turn what I imagined in my mind into reality." A smile appeared on Milia's originally serious face.
According to the relationship between her personality and Nen abilities, a person like her who has a calm, cool, slightly neurotic personality, is good at investigation and analysis, and always gives people a somewhat cold impression when they meet for the first time, is a typical Conjuration type.
Coupled with the self-created accelerated movement skill using demon power - "Phantom", it is not difficult to find a new ability that enhances the existing fighting method.
"I've almost figured it out." Deneve, whose presence has never been high, also added.
Seeing that three of the four people had or were about to develop their own abilities, Allen immediately turned his attention to Clare and asked in a slightly playful tone, "What about you? Don't tell me that you are still struggling with whether to completely copy everything about Teresa, even including her personality and behavior."
"I... I haven't thought about it yet." Clare's eyes flashed with despair.
"You haven't thought about it yet? Are you kidding me?" Allen raised his eyebrows angrily.
You must know that in the Life Energy development of the Nen abilities system, the most taboo thing is to give up your own advantages and imitate others.
What's more, in terms of personality, Teresa has absolutely no similarities with Clare.
"Clare, always remembering the past will not make you stronger. You need to face yourself and then bravely walk out of the shadow of the past." Milia gave a rare piece of advice.
"I understand..."
Clare nodded expressionlessly.
But Allen knows that this guy with a temper more stubborn than a donkey is a typical person who won't shed tears until he sees the coffin.
Only when strong external threats and stimuli appear, Clare will be forced to make changes.
Thinking of this, Allen immediately gave up the prepared sermon and announced bluntly, "Since you all have ideas for the development of Life Energy, I declare that this short training is over. Next, you each follow the order of the organization and continue to perform the task. Otherwise, if you disappear for too long, those shrewd Abyssal One will become suspicious."
"Thank you very much for your help. If I find out all the shady secrets of the organization, will you stand up and help us eradicate the entire organization?" Milia cautiously tried.
"No, I will not participate myself. But those more than thirty Warrior who betrayed the organization and came to seek refuge will be very happy to stand with you." Allen replied meaningfully.
Milia is so smart that he instantly realized the subtext contained in this sentence. His eyes suddenly lit up and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly. "That's enough!"
But Allen shook his head and reminded, "Don't take it lightly! If nothing goes wrong, the war between the organization and the abyss in the north will soon break out. At that time, you will all be used as cannon fodder and consumables and sent to the battlefield. By then, I am afraid that only a few will be able to survive. So I hope you try to select as many Warrior who are willing to betray the organization and we stand together. When necessary, I will personally rescue these people."
"War?" Milia's pupils suddenly dilated.
As the No. 6 of the organization, she has naturally heard about the abyss, and also knows how terrifying those monsters that dominate all Awakened Beings are.
Just when she was about to ask for details, she suddenly found that Allen sitting there suddenly turned into a ball of white smoke and disappeared without a trace.
