战国洛克：疾风女人们

However, that was not what worried him. What he was more worried about was that he felt like half of his soul had disappeared.

It was a very strange feeling. Although Delmor couldn\'t describe it in words, he knew his intuition would definitely not be wrong.

Delmor also had the feeling that... he no longer had any mission in this world.

That\'s right, whether he exists or not he will not affect the development of this world.

Delmor didn\'t understand why he had such thoughts, maybe... something happened that he didn\'t know about.

"Delmor… are you okay?"

Suddenly, Akiko held a candle and entered the room: "Sorry, I thought you were still unconscious so I didn\'t knock."

Delmor shook his head: "It\'s okay. Akiko, I want to ask you something."

"Hmm? You just passed out, you even spat out a mouthful of blood, I thought you had a serious illness or were about to turn into a zombie." Akiko didn\'t care about Delmor\'s question and immediately spoke.

"It\'s okay, I know what my body is like. I just want to ask you… do you feel that I am different from before?"

Akiko heard Delmor\'s question and felt confused: "Do you... feel bad?"

"No…" Delmor shook his head, he felt that Akiko didn\'t understand what he meant, so he said: "Okay, you go out first, I want to be alone for a bit."

Akiko tilted her head to look at him. After a moment, she also sighed and said: "Okay, if you need me, call me, I\'m in the next room."

Delmor did not answer, nor did Akiko say anything. After glancing at him once more , she left.

Delmor was alone in the room again, the candlelight was not enough to illuminate the room, but it was enough to illuminate the space around Delmor\'s bed.

He looked at the window, to see what was happening outside. There were no stars or moon in the sky, as everything was just dark, sometimes lightning flashed and disappeared.

"How does it feel to lose something important to you?"

A voice suddenly resounded, Delmor who was startled looked around, but he did not see anyone.

Although the room was not large, the candlelight could not illuminate the entire room.

Apart from the area around his bed, the rest of the room was still pitch black.

"Hikaru?" Delmor recognized it as Hikaru\'s voice, however, he couldn\'t believe that Hikaru could enter his room without him knowing.

It must be known that Alec was patrolling around the mansion, and that his nose was very sharp. As soon as a stranger appeared 1,000 meters away from the villa,  Alec will  immediately be aware of the person.

Moreover if a stranger approaches this place, it will immediately alert everyone.

\'Did I just hear wrongly? How could Hikaru appear in this place?\'

"No, you didn\'t mishear."

Hikaru\'s voice rang out again, Delmor then took a deep breath, as he felt extremely scared and worried.

He didn\'t think that Hikaru would be able to enter his room easily.

Suddenly, he felt a chill down his spine. If Hikau could enter this place easily, then that meant he could also kill him easily.

"What… what do you want?"

"No, Delmor, you still haven\'t answered my question."

Delmor listened to Hikaru\'s voice and looked around the room, trying to find Hikaru\'s location.

Suddenly, Delmor felt extremely uncomfortable, like he was a pawn and Hikaru was a player.

The feeling he was experiencing was the notion of being controlled by someone and that matter what he did, he wouldn\'t be able to escape.

"What did you do? Why do I feel this way?" Delmor shouted angrily. He knew Hikaru must have done something that\'s why he felt like he had lost half of his soul.

"Hahaha… Delmor, if you let everyone hear my conversation with you, I\'m afraid there won\'t be anyone left alive here, including Akiko and Rina."

"You…" Delmor angrily clutched the blanket, he felt extremely desperate when facing Hikaru.

It seemed like Hikaru was a god and he was just a commoner.

Knock! Knock!

"Delmor, what\'s going on?" Akiko\'s voice rang out from outside accompanied by a knock on the door.

Delmor was startled and immediately explained: "Ah, nothing, I just had a nightmare."

Akiko, who was outside, felt confused. It had only been  about 30 seconds when she left Delmor\'s room to hers, yet he was already having nightmares.

However, Akiko didn\'t ask much, she just said: "I understand. Delmor, don\'t worry, we\'ll continue tomorrow, don\'t worry about what happened today."

Delmor knew what Akiko was talking about, yes, it was what happened this morning.

"I know, good night."

"Good night." Akiko finished speaking and left.

After a while, Delmor confirmed that Akiko was no longer outside  and he breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, he softly asked: "Hikaru, what did you do? What do you want from me?"

"Delmor, do you want to continue to exist in this world?"

Hikaru didn\'t answer Delmor\'s question but instead he questioned him again.

Delmor was perplexed, then he thought for a moment, then said, "I…"

Suddenly, Delmor didn\'t know how to respond because he seemed to have lost the motivation to continue in this world.

That\'s right, before, he didn\'t understand why he wanted to create a kingdom for those who survived the apocalypse.

That\'s why he tried to do everything, trying to find as many materials as possible to build the kingdom he dreamed of.

However, everything was different now. He didn\'t want to do it anymore, he also felt that he couldn\'t do it.

Delmor also didn\'t understand why he felt that way, maybe… Hikaru was the one who knew the answer.

"Hikaru… I…"

"I just need your answer." Hikaru\'s voice resounded once more.

This time, his voice was not normal, it was full of murderous intent, making Delmor extremely scared.

Delmor took a deep breath, he tried to calm down then said: "Hikaru, can you predict the future, do you know what I possess?"

"Hahaha… That\'s right, I know you\'re in possession of that book. However, you should feel lucky that that book is useless to me. If not…"

Delmor suddenly felt a chill down his spine, as if he had just stepped out of the gates of hell.

"Hikaru… who are you?" Delmor asked, frowning, he glanced around as he tried to figure out where Hikaru was.

"You still haven\'t answered my question, Delmor."

Delmor took a deep breath, then said: "I want to continue living in this world. At the very least, I want to see what is happening to this world."

"Good… you have two choices, Delmor." Hikaru then continued to say: "Become my subordinate, or you can try to escape my grasp."

Delmor didn\'t think Hikaru would say it so directly.

"Becoming your subordinate, what benefit will I get?"

Pkts!

Delmor had just finished speaking when a small streak of light suddenly appeared, passing across his cheek. It left a cut on Delmor\'s cheek, and the blood that flowed from the cut made Delmor much more awake.

"Delmor… you have no right to demand benefits from me. If I wanted, I could kill you like an ant."

Delmor felt scared when he heard that. If the streak of light was aimed at his neck right now, he was afraid...

Delmor\'s lips trembled a bit, he took a deep breath and said: "Master..."

"Good! I don\'t have any orders for you for now, however, the supplies in the city have been taken by other people so you don\'t need to waste time on that."

Delmor heard what Hikaru saidand was surprised: "So... how will the people in this villa live?"

"You can go to the neighboring city. Delmor, the city of Ukko will be your stage."

"Ukko City? But… that place is a heavy industry, only minerals… wait!" Delmor was talking when he suddenly realized something.

He now knew why Hikaru asked him to come to Ukko city.

Delmor took a deep breath, then said, "Thank you, master. Tomorrow I will immediately send the survivors I manage to the city of Ukko."

"I hope you won\'t disappoint me."

"You..." Delmor stammered suddenly: "Aren\'t you afraid I\'ll betray you?"

"Hahaha… Delmor, if you can do it then you can try. However, the consequences will be extremely terrible. Are you sure you want to go on that road to hell?"

Delmor heard that and sighed: "Okay, tomorrow we will depart for Ukko city immediately."

"Hm?"

"Master…"

"Um…"

After that, Delmor no longer heard Hikaru\'s voice. The room fell silent again, and Delmor could feel that he was safe.

At this moment, Delmor breathed a sigh of relief. However, he realized that there was a test tube on the bed, inside was a solution emitting a faint blue light.

"This is…" Delmor suddenly remembered the purification medicine that Hikaru had given Laylah, but the color of the solution in the test tube he was holding was much darker.

Delmor knew for sure that this was what Hikaru had left behind. He thought for a long time…

\'If Hikaru left this, that means he wants me to drink it.\'

\'However… is this poisonous? What is its effect?\'

Delmor thought for a long time, and finally, he decided to drink the solution.

\'Anyway, Hikaru can kill me easily, he doesn\'t need to do so many weird things.\'

\'Wait! I have that book, I can see the information of this test tube.\'

"Use information search."

[Ding! scanning item.]

[Ding! Inspection successful. This item is called \'Strength Evolution Potion\'. It can help you evolve your strength without any side effects.]

Delmor saw the information board in front of him and fell silent, and any hope of resisting Hikaru disappeared.

At this point, Delmor felt that he could only be loyal to Hikaru, or else...

\'Perhaps… just as Hikaru said. Him killing me is no different from killing an ant.\'

\'It\'s too frightening, he even owns such powerful medicine.\'

Delmor felt lucky that he did not have to become Hikaru\'s enemy. Maybe… being his subordinate wasn\'t so bad.
