Chapter 421 Blue and Purple Love
Is this the ability of the sheath?
Or is this really the phantom of the sheath?
...But if this is really an phantom, why can Russell see through it and see Sheath's mind?
Why did he appear here, and why were those people attacked.
And the most critical evidence - the blood stains on the ground like an arc moon.
Even if this was really a psychic attack launched by someone, and what blew those people away and severed their heads was a thin line hidden in the black whirlwind or some invisible wind blade... it still couldn't explain the blood stain.
Those clear and obvious marks are the traces left when the blood was thrown off the sword blade!
With growing confusion, Russell and Delphinium arrived home safely.
They were somewhat relieved to feel safe at home.
Delphinium took off her coat and threw it on the sofa. Then she sat down on another sofa in the living room, picked up her collar without any concern for her image, and stretched her hand inside to fan the air.
As for Russell, as soon as he entered the house, he reached out and grabbed his face.
As he tore off a white mask, "Alice" disappeared in a burst of pale firelight, and Russell transformed back into his true form.
Seeing Russell sitting next to Delphinium thoughtfully, Delphinium reached out and patted his arm in a comforting manner.
"At least, the woman didn't chase her..."
She is still afraid and jealous of Sai Lun, the "chairman", and now she even feels guilty.
Even in Russell's home, where she thought it was absolutely safe, she subconsciously did not dare to call him by his first name. As if worried about being heard.
"...What I'm actually thinking about is another thing."
Russell shook his head slightly, and then looked at Delphinium.
He opened his mouth and then closed it again.
After only a moment of hesitation, Russell decided to tell the truth: "That man is 'Sheath'."
"sheath?"
Delphinium vaguely felt that the name sounded familiar, but couldn't remember who it was.
"That's my father - my biological father. My greatest enemy."
Russell took a deep breath and replied in a low voice.
Hearing this, Delphinium opened its eyes in shock.
She also realized what this meant.
The traitor who betrayed the Tower of Babel reappears on the Happy Island where the Tower of Babel is headquartered... What does this mean?
The man who had not "come ashore" for more than twenty years and had been walking alone on the ground full of radiation and curses finally returned to the empty island.
What does he want to do?
"Don't be afraid."
Before thinking about the answer, Delphinium already gave the answer reflexively.
She looked into Russell's eyes without hesitation: "I will help you...I will help until the end."
"I don't doubt that."
Russell shook his head slightly and added a correction: "Never doubted it."
"Then what are you hesitating about?"
Delphinium frowned slightly, and her eyes became more serious: "Are you thinking about his purpose? Or his motivation? Or the reason for appearing here? Or the future of Happy Island?"
"...To be honest, I actually didn't think about anything. In other words, my brain couldn't move anymore."
Russell was silent for a while, and then replied in a low voice honestly: "First it's Sai Lun, and then that man. The amount of information is too great, and there are too many things I want to question and think about. I can't find it at the moment. The clue... It's more like being in a daze than thinking.
"My mind is just blank. Maybe I can't give any answers.
"I had no time to be angry, let alone hatred... and I couldn't think of what I should do. I didn't even know whether he was seeing me or Alice. Then that person just disappeared in front of my eyes...
"If Mr. Driver hadn't given me an extremely positive answer, I would have even suspected that I was hallucinating."
"That is definitely not an illusion," Delphinium said with absolute certainty, "because I saw his 'love'."
"……like?"
"My spiritual power is also the power given to me by 'lethal love'. It is the new power I gained after completing the demon's awakening...some evil abilities that I may never use in this life."
Delphinium replied: "If someone's love is too dangerous or too strong, I can make them die of heartbreak. Their love can also be turned into poison for themselves."
"If the distance is not too far, I can also let the 'lethal amount of love' invade other people's dreams and plant the seeds of blue or purple thorns.
"When their 'love' for others, or their 'love' for their own ideals and paths becomes more intense...the seeds of the blue or purple thorns will absorb the nutrients of this love and grow in it. Gradually it sprouts in their hearts. This seed will give them the courage, perseverance and determination to practice this love, and will give them strong spiritual strength and will not back down no matter what obstacles they encounter.
“As resistance increases, their ‘love’ will be strengthened by this courage, perseverance and determination, which will then feed back to them with greater strength.
"'Lethal Love' tells me that this kind of courage is enough to make a cowardly and mediocre person able to withstand torture without breaking down. But this strength does not come without a price... it will also gradually drain them. their hearts. Let their interest in things other than 'the things they love' gradually dry up. Eventually, if this power has nothing to draw, it will draw itself out. And by then, it means self-destruction."
“...It’s the same as my ability to overdraw other people’s spiritual energy. It’s the power that makes people exhaust themselves to ‘persist’.
"And I felt very clearly from that man... that the ability could be activated directly.
"He has the aura of 'Purple Thorn' on him, which is so strong that it seems as if he has been guided by me. This means that he has some kind of love that is so strong that it is almost paranoid. And this love does not point to a real existence. It refers to an individual or an individual, but to something illusory. For example, some kind of career, some kind of path, some kind of dream..."
Having said this, Delphinium hesitated slightly.
But she still decided to inform Russell to avoid misjudgment of information: "And the 'blue' aura I felt from him was so faint that it was almost invisible. It was even much lighter than ordinary people... It was like Like children who have not yet reached puberty, they only have themselves in their hearts.
"Whether they are adolescents or adults, they always have love for others in their hearts. Wives, husbands, parents, children, important friends or even netizens... almost no one does not have 'love' in their hearts. But The 'blue' in this man's heart is so thin, so thin that it is almost invisible.
"This means that he does not have an unbearable love for any clearly existing individual. Not even himself - he has no love for himself."
Russell understood what the delphinium meant.
In other words... that man does not miss Alice, nor does he miss his biological son Russell.
As Russell saw, he really didn't care about his own life or death... At the same time, he really didn't care about his wife and son.
"Sheath" has clear thoughts and clear will, without any confusion or confusion, nor has it been manipulated or confused by others.
So far, he has what he clearly wants to do, and he has no regrets about the path he has chosen and the price he has paid.
——Even the price is Alice and Russell, and everyone who once trusted him.
Back from vacation! Feel refreshed!
