Shi patiently waited for Chihaya's broken limbs to be reconnected under the effect of the medicine. He played with the staff that still had the warmth of Chihaya's body. He could not help but reminisce about the feeling of his broken bones. In the past, his targets were all adults. The bones on their bodies were too hard. It was really too uncomfortable and too tiring to do it, so he rarely used a twisted rod.
Chihaya was different. She was still in her teens, so her bones were naturally much more brittle than an adult's. Through practice, Shi's guess was confirmed. He did not use much strength to easily break the bone that had stopped growing. Out of sadistic interest, he even chose to attack inch by inch. The feeling was really wonderful.
He didn't have to wait for too long. Although Chihaya's face was still sickly pale, her broken bones were already intact. If it weren't for the pain in her body reminding her, Chihaya would have thought that the previous torture was just her imagination. However, she would rather her limbs remain limp and powerless, because Shi would not be so kind as to help her treat her injuries.
Indeed, Divination had always been thinking of ways to torture people cruelly. Even the potions he made were to satisfy his sadistic desires. Therefore, the medicine that he gave Chihaya was to allow her to last longer and also to allow him to play longer. The additional feeling of corroding one's bones was the evil taste of divination. He liked to torture others like this.
Feeling that her broken bones had healed, Chihaya lowered her eyes. She knew that a new round of torture was about to begin. However, other than letting him do whatever he wanted, she had no way to escape the pain that she was about to face. His body was still in the same state, like a cripple. Under the extreme pain, the sealed power did not move at all.
Thinking of those people in the academy, her purple eyes flashed with nostalgia. He wondered how they were doing. The people from the Council of Elders and the Hunter Association should have arrived by now. Would Zero be controlled by them? Would those people ignore the evidence she left behind and attack Zero? Jiu Lanshu would probably take care of her. After all, Zero was still valuable, and Youji was worried about her.
There was also Little Yan. He must have been bewitched by that woman previously. Otherwise, he would not have asked her to leave, especially with two strangers whose identities had not been investigated. Unfortunately, even she could not resist the other party's ability and was played in the palm of his hand. Now that she had fallen into such a tragic state, if he knew, he would definitely be very sad and blame himself.
She knew the other party's personality very well, even if he was controlled at that time and the words he said did not come from his original intention. Based on how much he valued her, he would definitely take responsibility for her. If that person knew that she had suffered such cruel treatment after being taken away, how sad would he be? That was why she could not let him find her. Even if she died quietly in pain, it was better than letting him see her in a sorry state.
Chihaya hoped that Divination and Tea's hiding ability was good enough so that they would not be easily found. It would be best if he never, ever found her. Because by then, she would definitely look miserable. She could not let her family, who cared and loved her, be sad. At this moment, she felt a little regretful that she had impulsively left Zero with the array to sense her, even though that thing could only tell them if she was dead or alive.
Death was not scary. Chihaya had died once, so there was nothing to be afraid of. However, in her previous life, she had nothing to worry about other than the little fox. Dragging those people to die together could be considered as avenging herself. In this life, she had people who loved her and loved her. She could not bear to part with them, and she could not bear to let them be sad for her. What kind of mentality did she have at that time to do such a thing? It seemed to be out of some selfishness. She was in so much pain that she couldn't remember anything.
Shi seized the opportunity and went forward again with the staff, repeating everything he had done before. After experiencing it once, Chihaya had some resistance. She did not need to put something in her mouth to bite, and she would not bite herself. Even though the pain did not lessen, his face was still pale, and his lowered eyes hid a hint of determination.
Facing the repeated torture of broken bones, Chihaya gritted her teeth and endured it without making a sound. The ground beneath her feet was dripping with cold sweat. Her consciousness was also maintained in a semi-conscious state, and she did not faint from the inhumane torture. Later on, when her bones broke, she was already numb, as if she could not feel any pain.
Shi tossed and turned for half a day until his hands were sore. When he saw Chihaya's lifeless and unresponsive look, he finally dropped the tools in his hands, took off his coat and gloves, and left the basement, leaving Chihaya motionless. As soon as he left, there was only the faint sound of flames jumping in the basement, as well as breathing that was so weak that it was almost impossible to hear if one did not listen carefully.
Just as Chihaya's pain came to an end, Zero and Dark Lord Hui Yan were already burning with anxiety. They didn't tell Youji the truth about Chihaya's matter. The current situation with Scarlet Sakura was already enough to give them a headache. It was better to keep it from Youji so that she wouldn't do anything rash. Chihaya was very important to them. Yuji had treated Chihaya as her sister since she was young. Even though Chihaya was always so small, she had never changed.
In the end, this matter was still their responsibility. Black Master Hui Yan was caught off guard by the other party's move. It could be said that he had personally delivered the person into the hands of the evil person. Zero, on the other hand, knew that Chihaya's trip was dangerous, but she listened to Chihaya's instructions in a moment of confusion and did not follow her original intention to stop her from leaving. The two of them even watched her leave without paying attention to each other's tracks.
After making the wrong choice, they could no longer find the girl they cared about. Even her current condition could only be known by the array she left behind on the back of Zero's hand. He couldn't see her current state with his own eyes, and he didn't know if she was hurt. He could only keep praying, hoping that she would be safe and sound.
However, no matter how worried they were, the series of events that followed caught them off guard. Zero was shocked when she learned about her true enemy from the awakened Red Maria. The arrival of the vampires sent by the Council of Elders also made him and Black Lord Hui Yan unable to be distracted. They could only busy themselves with the current matters.
The peace of the Black Lord Academy was something that Black Lord Hui Yan needed to maintain. The interference of the Council of Elders forced him to stay in the academy. With him around, those people would have scruples, and he really couldn't ignore the matter of Wine Cherry. Black Lord Hui Yan chose to prioritize the big picture. After a long time, he learned about all the torture Chihaya had suffered. He regretted his choice for more than a moment, and because of this, he lived in guilt for the rest of his life. He always wanted to make it up to her.
Lance returned to the academy and watched the development of the situation coldly. He could agree to Chihaya's request to come back, or he could help out when he was in a good mood. However, when she saw that the people she cared about were still staying in the academy for various reasons, the so-called feelings seemed to have become a joke.
After experiencing so much, Lance had long seen through these mundane things. He was once young and impulsive, but he chose to suppress his true self in consideration of many other factors. After giving up many things, what he got was not what he really wanted, and what he lost could never be returned.
It was precisely because he had seen it so clearly that he was no longer troubled by external things. If he wanted it, he could just go and get it. If he didn't want it, he could just reject it. Lance released his true nature, and the ability he had matched his personality perfectly. If he didn't like this kind of life, he could just change his identity. Nothing could stop him.
After a few hundred years, Lance didn't regret his choice. Whether he was heartless or cold-blooded, he was still very happy. Every time he saw others suppress or even give up their true thoughts for various reasons, Lance felt that they were stupid. Regretting after making the wrong choice could not cover up everything that had happened. How could there be such a good thing?
The child asked him not to tell them about her, but Lance didn't agree. He wanted to see their expressions when they found out that he had personally pushed that person into hell. It must have been very interesting. They had indirectly become executioners, and they had even let the child die without looking for him for many days. If the child died, their expressions would definitely be very interesting.
However, Lance didn't want Chihaya to die so easily, so he would tell them about the child's whereabouts in a few days. For now, he would just endure it for the time being and watch this uninteresting scene. He hoped that the child would not die so easily. It was rare for him to be so interested in someone.
On the other side, Chihaya lowered her head and her thoughts drifted away. Her eyes were lifeless. Because the medicinal effects were almost gone, the bones in his hands and feet healed very slowly. The burning itch lasted for a long time without stopping. However, she did not seem to notice anything. She stared at the ground under her feet in a daze, looking like a broken doll.
While Divination locked himself in the research room, Tea sneaked into the basement and saw this poignant scene. She narrowed her eyes and walked to Chihaya. Her slender fingers lifted Chihaya's chin, forcing her to look up. Under the dim light of the fire, Cha was surprised to see Chihaya's face.
His skin was ice-cold. If it wasn't for the fact that he was still breathing weakly, Cha would have thought that he had been tortured to death by Divination. Fortunately, Divination knew his limits. Although he was a little heavy, it was not to the extent of playing people to death. It was this lack of movement and that lifeless gaze that gave Cha the illusion that the other party was already dead.
After sizing Chihaya up, she finally figured out what Shi had done. Chihaya's four limbs were abnormally twisted. It was obvious that her bones were broken. Divination's actions made Cha shudder. She thought that there would be blood, but she didn't expect him to be so cruel even though there wasn't any blood. He could even do such cruel abuse to a little girl.
