[Blood] Shura's Castle

Don't be afraid, because you will protect me.

And now I hope you don't be afraid, I won't die.

The Duke ran frantically with Leng Xing in his arms.Not wanting to waste time disabling the magic circle, and not wanting to let go of the sinner who caused her to suffer, the Duke rushed through the gorgeous hall like lightning, rushed out within a few seconds, and then teleported in an instant, appearing at the entrance of a large hospital .

She has a lot of money, but it's a pity that she is a vampire, and she doesn't have a personal doctor.

"Leng Xing, hold on!"

Consciousness blurred, the world was spinning, she finally couldn't maintain the clarity of consciousness, and fell into darkness.

"do not be afraid."

I will not die.

Because I promised you, I will be by your side.

The author has something to say: Note:

The jury is randomly selected by drawing lots among the blood races present.Each family will have a representative, and the lottery will be drawn separately.The jury has greater power, and the purpose of setting it is to restrain the justices and prevent them from conducting unfair trials.If the judge's trial is dismissed because it is not fair, the reaffirmation procedure will be initiated, and at the same time, the reputation of the dismissed judge will be seriously affected.

Although the court discipline read out is the old language of the vampires, most vampires cannot understand it.But all members of the Secret Party are familiar with the discipline of the Supreme Court, so it is just a process.Alice didn't recite item by item because it was too long and she didn't have the patience.

Chapter 66 Dawn (Part [-])

Just as the morning light illuminates the sky, it also illuminates your face.

- Leng Xing

Gastric lavage, catharsis, and an antagonist injection every 15 minutes... almost a whole night of tossing, the Duke's heart was about to be crushed.Influenced by Leng Xing's enthusiasm for medicine, the Duke also had some understanding of it.Although she has known the process of gastric lavage for a long time, but seeing the real scene, she still feels that the visual scene is more impactful than the text.In particular, because Leng Xing was in a coma, he even needed a gastric tube after the endotracheal intubation.

After a long gastric lavage, there were some treatment measures that made the Duke feel distressed to death and hated the poisoner.If she didn't dare to leave Leng Xing now, she would have inflicted all the cruel punishments of the blood race on the poisoner, and then beat him to ashes with her own hands.

The Duke's revenge must be known not only in the Vanjo family, but also in the entire Camarilla and even in the world of blood clans.Although as a pure-blooded nobleman, she would not be vengeful in the world of the blood race, and had the same knowledge as the lower-ranking ones, but if unfortunately she really angered her... it would only be a scene more terrifying than hell.

After no less than five or six times of subcutaneous injections of 3% pilocarpine nitrate solution, Leng Xing's pupils finally shrank, his light reflex appeared, and his oral mucosa became moist.Although the Duke didn't know much about medicine, she knew that the recovery of the pupil's light reflex indicated that the situation was improving.

"Alice."

In the single ward, apart from Leng Xing who was lying on the bed and the Duke with a tired face, there was no one else.

"Your Highness."

Following the Duke's call, Alice appeared out of thin air, kneeling on one knee in front of the Duke who was rubbing his temple.

"how was it?"

"The murderer has been caught and is being interrogated."

As one of the Duke's most capable subordinates, Alice's efficiency is not underestimated.

"Treat me well."

A cold light flashed in the Duke's eyes.

"Yes, Your Highness."

With a short and forceful reply as always, Alice disappeared out of thin air.No one knew that there had been a blood race here, let alone that the beautiful woman in the ward wearing a silk evening gown with a tired face was a pure-blood noble who was rare in the blood race.

"Baby."

She stretched out her hand to caress Leng Xing's cheek, her normally charming eyes were full of bloodshot eyes.

Leng Xing, who was still in a coma, didn't respond, as if he was in deep sleep, his face was calm, only the corners of his lips were pursed stubbornly.

She thought she was cold-blooded and ruthless enough, but the reality was that she was still defeated by the painful Leng Xing.

Propping his elbows, he kept looking at her face, as if he couldn't see enough. The Duke finally fell asleep after experiencing the thrilling prince duel, the tense prison visit, the tit-for-tat court confrontation and the heart-wrenching poisoning incident. caught.

But even with such exhaustion, Qian Xiyue still couldn't fall asleep.In the dream, for some reason, there was a large group of rabbits jumping around, and at the same time, there was a childish voice reciting nursery rhymes——

The big rabbit is sick,

Look at the two rabbits,

Three rabbits buy medicine,

Four rabbits boil,

Five rabbits died,

Six rabbits carry,

The seven rabbits dig a pit,

Eight rabbits buried,

Nine rabbits sat on the ground and cried,

Ten rabbits asked why it was crying?

Nine Rabbits said,

The five rabbits will never come back!

The rabbit jumped up and down in front of her eyes, which annoyed her very much.She wanted to drive the rabbits away, but they kept wandering around and disturbed her.Just when she finally gave up on trying to get rid of the rabbits, one, two, three...they began to blur.When the fourth rabbit disappeared, the childish voice faded away.And when the fifth rabbit disappeared, suddenly, her own figure appeared, holding a lily in her hand, standing by a gurgling river, and the other side of the river was full of blood-stained red flowers.

Then her dream ended, and she fell into a deep sleep, dreaming no more.

At dawn, the people lying on the hospital bed finally regained their clarity.

Leng Xing opened his eyes, and there were snow-white sheets, quilts and pillows in the soft light.

I am at my home?

She looked at the ceiling suspiciously, and found that it was also white.

I am at the hospital?

The previous memories come back to my mind, until I drank the blood-red liquid, and the blurred vision in the dizziness.

She confirmed that she was in the hospital because of the poisoning caused by that cup of inexplicable drink.

Leng Xing turned her head and looked at the Duke who was already sleeping beside the bed, and couldn't help reaching out and gently stroking her cheek.

She must be exhausted, and she is still so ignorant that she insists on taking her to places she shouldn't go.

"Where are you going?"

"Supreme Court of Camarilla."

"I want to go too~" Leng Xing pulled the Duke's arm.

"Not where you should be."

"Just take me there..." Leng Xing was soft-spoken, but he didn't let go.

Seeing that the court time was approaching, the Duke was at a loss.

"Okay, I can take you there, but you have to listen to me."

"Well. Tell me."

"First, sit at the place I designated; second, don't communicate with the blood race around you at will; third, don't do anything that is not in line with the status of the blood race nobles, remember, your current identity is a Vendor noble, isn't it Human." The duke looked serious, "Also, it's best not to let others find out about your relationship with me, especially the ring on your hand."

"Why?"

Leng Xing felt baffled, especially the last sentence.

"Don't ask so many questions. Or you stay here obediently, and I'll be back in a day at most."

The Duke put on his cloak and made a gesture to leave.

"Don't, don't... I just listen. Take me there."

one day?Such a long time!

Leng Xing flattened her mouth unwillingly, what did her last sentence mean.

The Duke took out a more ordinary cloak, which was embroidered with the scepter crest of the Vanjo family.

Then she gently tied the cloak around Leng Xing's neckline and tied it in a beautiful bow.

"It's different from the one on you..."

"This is only the cloak of the nobles of Vanjoy, and the one on me can only be worn by members of the Innis family." The duke helped Leng Xing sort out his clothes, "You are qualified to wear this cloak because you are my lover. It's just... ..."

"Just what?"

"I don't really want them to know your existence, until the overall situation is stable."

The Duke kissed Leng Xing on the forehead, and then held her tightly in his arms.

"I thought……"

"Think I don't want to admit it? You are the only one, baby. I have no lover other than you, so I don't need to hide anything."

"I prefer 'Lover'."

"It doesn't matter to me, you are the only one, Duke Qianxiyue's only partner is Leng Xing." The Duke lowered his head and kissed her lips.

After a while, the Duke raised his head, his eyes were as affectionate as the sea.

You are also my one and only.

Leng Xing fondly traced every line of her face with his fingertips, she was so beautiful, so noble, and so powerful.

And she is my love.

The Duke vaguely felt the soft touch on her face, she opened her eyes, and in front of her was Leng Xing who had woken up.

"Qian Xiyue."

Leng Xing murmured, with a slight hoarseness in his voice.

"Baby..."

The Duke only felt that his whole body was trembling with excitement, and she hugged Leng Xing fiercely, as if she wanted to crush her inside her body.

"You must be terrified..." Leng Xing looked at the child-like Duke, rubbing her cheek repeatedly, "I'm sorry, my dear, I'm sorry."

"If it wasn't for you...I would have died long ago. You did it for me...it should have been mine..."

She remembered the scene where Leng Xing mischievously snatched her cup and drank the liquid inside.

"What nonsense are you talking about? How could you possibly die? You are the great Rose Duke Qian Xiyue..."

Leng Xing, who was wearing a hospital gown, hugged tightly with the Duke who was wearing an evening gown.The Duke has been watching her all the time, and has no time to change clothes.

She didn't dare to leave, and she couldn't stand not being able to look at her lover for a moment.In that way, the habit of changing clothes three times a day was broken for the first time except for war.All night, she just wore a thin silk evening dress.

Although the Duke is not afraid of the cold, Leng Xing still feels distressed.

"I also have weaknesses. Honey, the wine you drank for me contains 'Daturastramonium', which is a deadly poison for blood races. It can range from total loss of spiritual power to immediate death."

"Fortunately, it's me..." Leng Xing quietly closed his eyes and leaned against her arms.

"What's okay! You don't know how scared I was!"

Thinking back on it now, the Duke feels a chill in his heart.

"I just got poisoned after drinking it. You may die if you drink it. It's better for me to drink it." Leng Xing's voice was flat, not at all like the reaction of a person who survived a catastrophe, "Fortunately, I stole yours. cup."

"But how much torture have you suffered..."

"It won't be more tormented than your accident." The words were still calm, "Hurry up and change your clothes, you are tired."

"No, I want to be with you."

"Don't you think the clothes you've worn for so long are dirty?"

"It's insignificant compared to you." The Duke kissed her forehead, "As long as you are always well."

"Would you rather not change your clothes for a month?"

"Uh... this... has never been..."

Don't change clothes for a month!She couldn't imagine it!

"Could it be that I'm not as good as..."

Leng Xing looked like he was about to cry.

"As long as you're doing well, let alone a month, a year is fine!"

The Duke gritted his teeth, but his face already had a broken expression.

"You're kidding, how is it possible..." She looked at the slumped Duke, and couldn't help laughing, "I wouldn't go so far, I can't even imagine it."

I know you love me, but I didn't even know you loved me so much.

The Duke is notorious for her arrogance and stubbornness. Before that, she would not change her habits for anyone, such as changing clothes three times a day, such as having to label a book if she hadn’t finished reading it, and resolutely Avoid any type of physical contact, such as wearing the flame totem cloak of the Ines family all day, such as drinking blood must use an expensive crystal cup, instead of biting the neck of the prey or directly tearing the blood bag and drinking it... Anyway , Her various unique and even some weird habits will make many people dumbfounded, but she is unmoved and still goes her own way.Her deep cleanliness is as famous as her beauty and genius.

And now, Leng Xing can actually make the Duke "not change clothes for a year" for her!

Incredible.

"Did you just sit here all night in this suit?"

"No, didn't I fall asleep?"

She was really sleepy to the point where she couldn't hold on, even the vampires needed to rest.

Leng Xing stroked her bare shoulders and frowned slightly: "Although you are not afraid of the cold, but you are dressed so thinly... I will feel bad."

Her face was pressed against her cold shoulders.

The Duke hastened to activate his spiritual power, for fear of catching Leng Xing cold.

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

Feeling the heat from her body, Leng Xing smiled slightly, and stretched out his hand to caress her back, as if comforting her.

"You've just recovered a bit, so it's better to pay attention."

Leng Xing rested on the Duke's arm, looking at the ceiling.

"I had a strange dream." Leng Xing murmured.

"What dream?" The Duke thought of the rabbit jumping around in his dream, and felt extremely absurd, but she didn't say it.

"I don't remember the specific scene, but someone has been chanting something in my ear... like a poem..."

She cleared her throat and recalled—

"Twin Cities, Twin Cities,

Here we sleep,

Looking at the sky in the twilight,

To lift the unbearable burdens of life.

Those boulders,

The miracle of Salisbury is shining,

I watch the boundless wheat fields,

See red intertwined with black.

Quasimodo's bells ring at midnight,

Misty Rain London writes a chapter of betrayal and glory,

to the place where the river flows,

The blood-colored flowers are enchanting together with the starlight all over the sky.

In the silver moonlight,

It is the final showdown between black and white,

Dancing swords of gold and silver,

It doesn't end until one dies.

Twin Cities, Twin Cities,

Here we sleep,

The vast sea brings your breath,

The night castle in the wind and frost is immortal. "

"It's really long." The Duke smiled. In comparison, the story of the group of rabbits was much shorter.

"I don't know what it means...it feels like a magic sound, as if something is about to happen..."

"That's just a dream. The magic of the brain has not been fully discovered until now." The Duke hugged her, "What can happen? The sky is falling and there are others to support it."

Leng Xing was a little silent.That's right, the sky was falling because of others, and she couldn't help the Duke with so many things, and in the end he insisted on pestering her to take him to a court where humans were forbidden to enter.

"I feel like I'm really capricious, always..." She shook her head and didn't continue.

The Duke listened quietly.

"I'm always getting angry at you, playing petty temper, making all kinds of demands... Even, every time I ask you to carry my backpack and do what a servant does, but you..."

She walks with the duke without taking anything.

She was often too lazy to walk, and asked the Duke to carry her forward.

She would even give the duke a flimsy look, because the duke only sent her two "good nights" in three days.This is unprecedented, because Leng Xing is not like this at all, if she encounters something annoying, at most she will walk away without even bothering to do it.

Leng Xing didn't think he was a willful person.Since she was a child, she didn't have the princess disease of a rich daughter, and she would not ask others to do this or that for her.In fact, Leng Xing, whose family was not yet in ruins, was already as polite as the duke he met that day when he was only a child.And after her family's decline, she understood the truth that no one is obliged to do this or that for you, and she became extremely independent and strong.Except for the miraculous chairman lady, none of the classmates and friends around her knew the fact that both of her parents had died.At any time, she will not be willful, her character will not, and life will not allow it.

However, she frequently behaved in front of the Duke that deviated from her usual attitude, such as throwing herself into the Duke's arms in the hospital, or agreeing with the Duke to send her back to school... In fact, a normal Leng Xing should deal with it very calmly After finishing everything, and then calling Lanzhuo's parents to inform them of the whole situation, they went home, but also resolutely refused anyone to send her off, because they did not want any contact.

Later, it even escalated to the waywardness of yelling on the campus trails and showing the duke's face.Leng Xing is very sunny and sometimes very silly. It's not that she doesn't make jokes too much and make others go crazy, but she doesn't show embarrassment to others. No matter how annoying she is, she just covers it up and then quietly leave.As for asking others to do things for her, it is even more pitiful.She would rather fight the plan until two o'clock in the morning than send a text message to the minister for help. No wonder people say that she has the skin of a soft girl and the heart of a woman.

"It's not that I haven't been capricious towards you, Leng Xing."

The Duke also looked up at the white snow above his head.

The author has something to say:

Chapter 67 Dawn (Part [-])

The author has something to say: this is the end of the main text, and there will be some extras after that.It is basically a supplement to the things mentioned in the article, such as the New Year's party, the first date between the Duke and Leng Xing, and some things about the winter vacation and Leng Xing's self-report.There is no doubt that the ending of the first part is HE, two people sitting in the hospital ward watching the dawn.Both are fine, no missing arms or broken legs.

Although the Duke is arrogant and conceited, he still has self-knowledge in some things.

——I'm not very emotional in the first place.

She knew very well in her heart that she was not a good lover, would ignore Leng Xing's feelings because of work, and didn't know how to make sweet talk or romantic courtship in different ways. Throw it to her and tell her to brush it casually, just because she doesn't know how to love.

Even so, she was already regarded as a good lover in many people's minds, but compared to Leng Xing who took care of her mood almost meticulously, and hardly made any excessive demands, these were really nothing.

The so-called "making various demands" is probably because Leng Xing will not have any demands on others compared to her.

Because she knows too well that human nature is selfish, and no one is obliged to do things for you.

"You are willful to me, I am willful to you, we are even."

Some people say that in love, either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.However, true love, in addition to the contest between two people, may also be a kind of mutual companionship.Maybe there is no vigor and vitality of "I want to know each other with you, and my life will never end. There are no hills in the mountains, the rivers are exhausted, the thunders in winter, the rain and snow in summer, the heaven and the earth are united, so I dare to be with you", but only need to "hold your hand, "Grow old with your son", the tenderness and support that accompany you for a lifetime.

"That's fine." Leng Xing smiled, "I'm not used to being in debt to others, even you. My creed is that I would rather everyone in the world owe me than I would."

"That's not like what people who think they are selfish would say. I'm just the opposite. I would rather let the world down, and the people in the world don't let me down."

"People are in conflict all the time. People who say 'bread and love, I choose love' can give up love, just to save ten years of struggle. Salivating and always fantasizing about winning $500 million. No wonder.”

"Why just take money as an example?"

"Because money is quantified and the most direct. Moreover, I have never denied my desire for money. I don't think it is a sin."

"Then you still refuse to accept my card."

"I hope that we are equal, and I don't want to mix material things between our feelings."

"Even if all the money you spend comes from me, I won't use this to make things difficult for you when you quarrel."

"It's not for this reason, I'm not someone who can 'take advantage of the short-handed'. It's just... I just don't want to."

"I didn't use money to buy feelings, and I wouldn't do that. Material things are just a means of expression. Don't worry about it. It's just a tool. Leng Xing, I think you who come from a business family understand better that money is a tool for people." , we need not be enslaved by it."

"I fully understand. To Grandet, money is life; to Qian Xiyue, money is paper; to me, money is money. But to put it simply, it's just because you haven't experienced the lack of money. Life."

"Even if it is missing, it can't change the fact that it is just a tool. In addition, spending money for others is life, and spending money for you is paper, because tools have their own uses and should not be wasted at will. I am proud of being a blood clan, Used to mock humans too. You know why? Because humans created money and became its slaves."

"Isn't the blood family still slaves of blood?" Leng Xing had a trace of sarcasm in his eyes, "None of us are saints."

"Yes, none of us are saints. But isn't it sad to keep falling in one place? Why bother. Maybe what I'm about to say will make you feel a little uncomfortable, but I don't mean to hurt your feelings. I What I give you is only a very small part of the wealth I own. Maybe a bank card with a deposit of [-] is a treasure in the palm of others, but for me, it is just a number. For you now , it can greatly reduce your burden, let you concentrate on learning and save more people's lives, isn't this what you have always wanted? Besides, I am a blood race, and the symbol of our success is not money, but It's blood and strength."

"Okay..." Leng Xing felt that she had already been defeated. The Duke's words were indeed well-founded, and they were in line with her political stance of "peacefully governing", using words to persuade the other party and avoiding violence as much as possible, "But I still I feel that money should not be mixed between lovers."

"Every time we talk about values, we always quarrel." The Duke turned around and stroked Leng Xing's hair, "Let's talk about something else. You just recovered, so it's really not suitable for quarreling."

"It's not a fight, it's a debate."

"You're not fit to debate right now."

"That's really arbitrary... Well, for the sake of your hard work in sending me to the hospital to save my life."

"If it wasn't for me, you wouldn't need me to save you. Besides, you saved me before."

"It's here again... Wasn't it your own well that day? I just carried you home."

"At least you bandaged me to avoid bleeding to death."

"Actually, I've always wanted to ask you the specific details, but I'm afraid that it will bring up your unpleasant memories. Now that you have revenge, I can ask. What's going on?"

"If you want to trace the source, you can get 1533."

"So long?"

"To put it simply, in a battle in the Millennium Jihad, I shot the opponent's general to serious injury with overwhelming spiritual power, but I was so injured that I fell into a coma. I didn't know that the opponent's general was actually tortured to death by the elders. And he The son of Lesemba, Prince McKee, the last actual controller of the Presbyterian Church in Lesemba, hated me because I 'killed' his father." The Duke put a quotation mark in the air, indicating that the Duke of Bea was not She killed, "so he wanted to pay with blood, and sent Assamai's killer to assassinate me, but I killed the killer. Later, he still didn't give up, and tried to assassinate me countless times, but failed every time. On that very day, he dispatched the mightiest Assamarian Hydra, Cole..."

"Is the Assamai a family of killers?"

The killers mentioned by the duke are all from this family.

"Yes, you can hire them and pay with blood, so they will become stronger because they suck the blood of the same kind. However, once Assama's killer fails to assassinate the target, he will not take him as the target again in the future assassination mission..."

The Duke said that at last he suddenly found an important loophole.

She had already killed Assamai's killer, so the family would not take on missions targeting her.That Hydra Cole...

"Qian Xiyue?"

"Wait, I have something to think about."

There are only two possibilities, either, he is not the real Hydra Cole, or Cole is not from the Assamai tribe at all!

"How about I let Cole..."

"Don't!" the Duke raised a hand to stop him, his usually emotionless eyes were turbulent, "Proseus is still useful. If you ask Cole to kill Proseus, McGee will notice. Besides, Cole's business has not yet been settled."

She thought of this conversation with Auston, and felt that the truth had not been fully revealed.

—Or I'll let Cole...

But Cole is dead!Cole she killed herself!

How could she ignore it at that time!It is because the mind is blinded by anger, and impulsiveness is indeed a devil!

So, it wasn't the real Cole who was killed at the time, so who was the real Cole?What is his identity?

The Duke felt that it was necessary to thoroughly investigate this matter, otherwise the sword of Damocles would still hang over her head.

"Okay, let's talk."

Seeing Leng Xing's hesitant expression, she spoke.

"You said that once Assama's killer failed to assassinate the target, he would never take on his assassination mission in the future. Then why are both assassins from Assama? Didn't you kill the first one?"

There was a dead silence.

Cold star is really sharp, thought the duke.

No wonder there is a saying that "the authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear".

"Yeah, I just discovered it now." The Duke shrugged subconsciously, expressing his helplessness, "It seems that I'm busy again."

"I will be with you, don't be afraid."

"Next time, don't grab my drink again." Now when the Duke heard the words "don't be afraid", the scene of Leng Xing falling to the ground immediately appeared in front of his eyes.

"Next time, you'd better let others drink first."

"That's not something that Leng Xing, who advocates equality for everyone, would say."

"Qian Xiyue, don't embarrass me anymore. Can you just hug me without thinking about anything?"

The Duke embraced her as promised.Although it was just a simple hug, without lingering kisses or intense love, her heart had never been as full and full as it was at this moment.That was an experience she had been unable to obtain for six centuries, as if, holding her in her arms, she possessed the whole world.Blood, status, spiritual power, money, coups and conspiracies, war and peace, these are no longer important.

On the distant horizon, the sun is jumping up a little bit, slowly illuminating the sky into a bright white belly.The deepest darkness before dawn gradually fades, and among the overlapping clouds, there are wisps of sunlight, which penetrates and washes away the light gray in the sky until it shines into the most beautiful morning light.

"Qian Xiyue."

"Ah."

"Look, it's Dawn."

"Ah."

Leng Xing sat up, looking intently at the dawn sky outside the window.

The Duke sat beside her, and together they turned their gazes to the distant sky, to the rising sun.

Just like Apollo eight centuries ago, accompanied by his beloved Daphne, sitting in the country, on the top of the mountain, sitting by the sea, sitting on the street of the city-watching the rising sun.

The sun was shining on his face, Leng Xing narrowed his eyes intoxicatedly, feeling the gentle warmth.

The Duke could even see the little golden fluff glistening on her slightly pale face in the sunlight.

She couldn't help laughing, at this moment she was very grateful, thanked that she was a pure blood, no matter how many struggles she was involved in, and how many people coveted her blood, she could freely look at her lover in the sun.

"It's such a warm feeling...I suddenly thought of it!"

She opened her eyes, and the flame of inspiration burned in the quivering pupils.

"Think of what?"

"Qian Xiyue, quickly bring me my notebook!"

"it is good."

The Duke disappeared as promised, and reappeared in a moment, holding Leng Xing's laptop in his hand, which had already been turned on.

Leng Xing entered the password extremely quickly, opened the document, moved his fingers on the keyboard, and typed one character after another.

"A novel?"

"Shh, let me finish."

She continued typing intently, while the Duke sat beside her and watched quietly.

——"Look, it's Dawn."

On the distant horizon, the sun is jumping up a little bit, slowly illuminating the sky into a bright white belly.The deepest darkness before dawn gradually fades, and among the overlapping clouds, there are wisps of sunlight, which penetrates and washes away the light gray in the sky until it shines into the most beautiful morning light.

Pandora opened the magic box, and disasters flooded the world, but there was still one thing, very weak and faint, which was quietly put in by Athena, the only good thing.

Just like the brilliant dawn above their heads at this moment, the light penetrates the clouds and comes to this world bit by bit, illuminating the land that was once in the darkness before dawn.

That is hope, that is the only gift given to us, the strength against all disasters, misfortunes, and hardships.

As long as there is life, there is hope.As long as you keep hope in your heart, you can't lose.

Just as the morning light illuminates the sky, it also illuminates your face.

[Sura's Castle Part One—Blood Lily, end of text. 】

☆、Declaration3 no proposition

This concludes the main text of the first part, let's sort out the following plot.
