Chapter 119
quencher...

Kraut was a quencher, but his son Naveen was not.

When Navin faced disaster, he was only a little better than ordinary people, but he still had no ability to resist. Maybe it would be much better after he refined his alchemy.

On Stewart Island, psychic scholars are not quenchers, but they can live longer than other ordinary people. There are many ways to fight against disasters, not only to let the soul burn.

As the quarrel between the two gradually became acute, Saul also realized why Kraut blamed himself so much.

This tough father always wanted his children to live better, but because of his own toughness, his children died young.

A sense of twisted fate looms.

Even if he is as strong as Kraut, he can't protect his favorite relatives in this world, because disasters are everywhere.

"Ah."

A taunt came from behind the white bandage.

Up to now, Navin's voice is almost the same as that of a real person, and it is almost impossible to tell the real from the fake.

"Another quencher..."

"Because I'm not a quencher, you look at me like garbage every day. I can't forget your expression every day before going to bed. Every time I frown, every time I sigh, I remember it clearly."

"The quencher, high above, is like... another species, as if he is not a human anymore."

"That's right, I was your burden, so I left. Since you look down on me so much and hate me, why do you want me back?"

This ridicule not only ridiculed Kraut, but even Saul who was standing aside was also affected.

Saul didn't open his mouth to refute, or even have the idea of ​​refute.

The experience on Stewart Island has already told him that quenchers are indeed very different from ordinary people, especially when facing disasters.

"When did I look down on you, you are my son, I will definitely get you back." Kraut retorted loudly, his voice was very loud.

Saul couldn't help but frowned, and stood a little further away.

"All the time." This was Navin's answer.

"Think about it with your papaya head, I look down on you, would I care so much about you?" Kraut was a little angry, as if he was talking to wood.

Sauer felt that if there was another person's voice behind the white bandage, it had nothing to do with Naveen, Kraut would not be so groggy.

Although the desire of the evil spirit is still unknown, since the evil spirit occupied Naveen's body, there is a high possibility that it has something to do with Kraut.

"I..." As he spoke, Kraut began to pant, as if his mood fluctuated greatly. He said "I" a few times before he said what he wanted to say: "I just want you to make you stronger. At least when you are in danger, you can last until I come to rescue you. I..."

Kraut looked at the white bandage in front of him. In his eyes, he seemed to be looking at his own child, a child who was still alive in his memory.

"I...I'm sorry, Navin, I never cared about your feelings."

An apology five years late.

This time, Navin didn't answer.

The face on the white bandage slowly disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Saul had a surprised expression on his face.

Could it be this reason?The evil spirit occupied Naveen's body and was in turn influenced by Naveen's body, so what the evil spirit wanted to do was to make Kraut apologize?

He thought, but wasn't sure.

After looking around, he felt that things were not that simple. The bandages all over the house had not disappeared, and the original posture was still maintained. However, the situation did not become more serious
"Navin!" Kraut yelled, "Are you still there?"

Although Sauer didn't know what the evil spirit wanted, he knew what Kraut wanted now. Kraut, who had been living in remorse, wanted Navin's forgiveness.

However, Naveen was already dead.

"Kraut, it's better for us to focus on what's in front of us first." Sauer reminded, but didn't mention Navin.

Kraut turned his head to look at Saul, his tired face seemed to have a little more vitality, and the expression on his face was complicated, perhaps because Saul had heard all the conversation with Navin just now.

"Well, you're right." Claude nodded.

Time passed by, and the light illuminating the room became dimmer and dimmer, as if all the light sources had been absorbed. Suddenly, the lapis lazuli stone used to open the alchemy array was taken out at some point and thrown aside. Suddenly, the room was plunged into darkness.

Where the two of them could not see, an unknown black thick substance flowed down the white bandage, covering most of the bandage.

In this black substance, there seems to be a strong evil hidden.

In the depths of the soul, a burning sensation rose and spread throughout the body in an instant.

The calamity appeared and was affecting the soul of the quencher.

Sauer opened his eyes wide. Although he didn't know exactly what happened, he felt dangerous as if he was touching the sharp thorns on the skin. With a little more force, it would pierce the skin, blood vessels, and pierce into the heart.

It seems that the conversation between Kraut and Navin just now not only failed to solve, or avoid, this disaster, but made the disaster brought by the evil spirit more dangerous.

Just as the soul of the quencher becomes stronger under the tempering of calamity, calamity seems to be evolving.

Regardless of the reason, leaving the house is a must. Sauer stretched out his right hand, and the charged air cannon began to prepare. The direction was exactly the direction where Navin's face appeared before.

The ability of air perception is always on, and in the next second, many bandages strike from all around at the same time.

boom!
The air cannon fired, hitting the position before the face in front of him.

The wall of the main house was vulnerable to the power of the air cannon, and a big hole was blasted out. Outside the house, the sparse moonlight shone on the gap, and beside the gap, a lonely figure stood silently on the edge, very similar in size to the man in bandages seen at the edge of the woodland.

"Navin!" Klaut shouted and rushed over.

The pale puppet appeared beside Kraut, blocking the bandages from all around for him.

Saul noticed that the white bandage just now turned black. He put down his right hand to deal with the countless bandages attacking him, and at the same time, rushed towards the gap.

The wind blade has become the most important means of attack at the moment.

tear.

The sound of bandages being torn echoed continuously in the house, followed by the dull sound of wind blades hitting beams and walls.

The wind blades wreaked havoc in the house, and almost all the bandages near Sauer were cut off. Occasionally, one or two broke through the encirclement, but they couldn't pose much threat.

However, one wave after another, the bandages seem endless, never stop, and even more and more.

The whole house seems to have been transformed by the evil spirits and turned into a tool for the evil spirits to attack.

Kraut was already close to the big hole, but all the bandages that had blocked the two stopped attacking for a while, and blocked the gaps in the wall one after another, trying to prevent the two from leaving.

The Pale Golem leaped high and kicked the bandages apart before Kraut, opening a path for the former.

Kraut rushed out from the gap. Just as he left, the remaining black bandage blocked the gap again, and the thickness was much thicker than before.

Since the bandage did not continue to attack, Sauer no longer needed to use the wind blade to protect himself, but charged up the air cannon, and when he got close to the wall, the air cannon fired, blasting an escape channel in front of him.

The black bandages on the side quickly spread out and moved towards the second exit, but it was too late.

Saul didn't hesitate and ran out quickly.

The moonlight fell on his shoulders, and the cold wind on the outskirts of Westwood Harbor was blowing on his face.

Kraut stood outside the house, his eyes still searching for something, and the pale puppet was still cleaning the black bandage that blocked the first exit.

Seeing this scene, Saul was a little surprised. He looked back and saw that the black bandages in the main house hadn't come out, at most, they were only hanging at the gap, as if waiting for the prey to come.

As the breeze blew, the bandages that had been dyed black slowly floated, revealing a figure. This figure was hidden behind the black bandages, looking lonely, lonely and weird.

At some point, Navin unexpectedly returned to the house, as if he was everywhere and untouchable.

The familiar voice reappeared, and this voice also made Kraut quiet down a little.

"I'm just your tool. I can feel it. Where you let me go, let me learn alchemy. In fact, you don't care about me at all. You just can't accept that your child is an ordinary person. He is neither a quencher nor talented. It is only a meager blood relationship that connects us. You are very disappointed in me."

"I didn't meet any of your requirements. I have no value. To you, I'm like a waste material that you throw away. It should be thrown into the trash can."

Navin's voice became more and more excited, as if the dead young man reversed his death.

"No." Kraut retorted.

"Hahahahaha." A slightly manic laughter came from the main house, with self-deprecating and rampant laughter.

"Stop talking." Kraut's eyes dimmed.

Sauer looked into the main house, and he felt that Navin was about to say something very important, something that Kraut couldn't bear.

"Stop it!" He couldn't help but stop, he realized that Navin was constantly destroying Kraut's defenses, and this was what Navin really wanted to do, and this was the purpose of the evil spirits.

Desire and purpose, however, are not the same thing.

Saul raised his right hand, and the air cannon began to charge.

"Hahahahaha." The laughter in the room continued.

boom!
The air cannon fired, and the target was exactly where Navin was.

The black bandages shattered one after another, but there was no Navin's shattered figure, and there was no one behind the black bandages.

That's fine too.

Saul thought.

As long as Navin is not allowed to continue talking, the situation can be stabilized.

However, just as he put down his right hand, Navin's voice echoed from the room.

"Haha, you must think that I met the Sandman because of an accident. You must think that I drove me out to meet the Sandman. Let me tell you, you are wrong. I just want to escape from you. When the Sandman appeared, I was not affected at all. I told you that I will not go to a dangerous place, and I can go."

"But I didn't go."

"Because I found that this is a good way to die. I can die in my sleep. In this way, I can escape from you forever."

"Don't worry, I don't have you in my dream, and a dream without you is a good dream."

"I hate you, Kraut, you are the person I hate the most in this world!"

As Navin's last words fell, Kraut felt as if he had been struck by a bolt from the blue. His eyes widened and he murmured "impossible". His face was filled with disbelief. He backed away slowly, staggered, and wobbled until he fell to the ground, as if his soul had been pulled out of his body.

These words not only shocked Kraut, even Sauer was very surprised. Even if he was not the person involved, he could still feel the pain that Navin's words brought to those who cared about him, like a spear piercing through his chest.

Judging from Kraut's reaction, what Navin said seemed to be true.

Kraut solved the Sandman incident, and naturally investigated the cause of Navin's death. Most of them were unclear and unexplainable. Now, as the evil spirit said it through Navin's mouth, everything naturally matched. Perhaps Kraut had already guessed in his heart, so when these words were spoken by the voice he missed the most, it was so shocking.

Navin is asking for death on his own initiative.

If this is true, then it also means that Kraut's five-year persistence is meaningless.

Saul took a deep breath to calm down his inner emotions. He noticed one thing, as Kraut's defense collapsed, the pale puppet also disappeared.

Naveen's voice disappeared.

He looked into the house and found that the deadly bandages had also disappeared. However, the feeling of danger did not go away. These bandages, like snakes retreating to their nests, just lay dormant, waiting for the next opportunity to hunt.

Saul looked around and found no obvious danger, so he walked to Kraut, helped Kraut up, and comforted him by the way:
"Cheer up, Navin is dead, it was just the evil spirit manipulating him just now."

Kraut turned his head and looked at Saul, his eyes had lost their light, like a walking dead.

This is the first time Saul has seen "blight" in a human eye.

"Don't...don't mind me, you run away..." Kraut took two steps back, his eyes seemed to be blind, and he was at a loss.

Shaoer couldn't believe that the person in front of him turned out to be the one who beat him in the backyard just now, the quencher who already had a soul body.

With Kraut's current state, he could almost describe it as effortless to kill Kraut, almost no different from an ordinary person.

Suddenly, he thought of the conflicting conversation between Kraut and Navin. If Kraut was really as selfish as Navin said, and only used Navin as a tool, Kraut would definitely not be like this. Perhaps, it was precisely because Kraut always cared about Navin, and Navin's words hurt Kraut so much.

"I can't go. I don't think Navin will let me go." Saul gave his own answer. After thinking for a while, he continued: "Besides, you are very fragile now. If I leave, you will definitely die."

Boom, boom, boom.

A slight sound came from a distance, very light, if it wasn't for the night, if it wasn't for the surroundings being very quiet, it could hardly be heard.

Saul looked in the direction of the sound. On the edge of the woodland, under the sparse moonlight, a figure was hitting the tree with his head. The next second, something seemed to hang from the branch, wrapping around the figure's neck, and quickly lifted the figure. After struggling for two seconds, the figure dropped its hands and stopped struggling.

The evil spirit never left.
