Chapter 288 You are finally coming back to me
"...Vic?" Ivana looked at the crying Pure Silver Wolf and asked in a trembling voice, "Is it you?"
The Pure Silver Wolf stopped crying and turned to look at Yvina.
There was no longer any human feature in its body, and it was even more extreme than that night.
But Yvina knew that it was still the "Vic" she knew, because its eyes... were still shedding tears.
This made Ivana realize that it might have understood everything.
"Vic... No." Yvina whispered, "You already know everything, right... Ade."
Ade let out an extremely sad whimper, and then scratched his head frantically with his claws as if in self-abuse.
"No! Ade, don't do this!"
Ivana immediately rushed forward and wanted to hug Ade, just like she had always done before.
But she failed. The moment her hand touched Ade's hair, Ade suddenly jumped up and knocked Ivana away.
Yvina fell in the mud.
“Woo… roar!”
Ade sounded like he was wailing and roaring at the same time.
Ivana didn't care about the pain in her body and looked at Ade again. She found that Ade's face was very distorted, half of it was ferocious, and the other half was calm. Two completely different expressions appeared on the same face, which made Ivana realize that Ade was still fighting with the "Saint".
Ivana immediately climbed out of the mud pit and wanted to rush to Ade again, but she heard Ade growl and speak in human language.
“Don’t come over here!”
Yvina had no choice but to stand still.
Ade struggled and said, "Don't come over here...I can't control myself anymore."
"No, Ade! You can do it!"
"I can't do it." Ader said in a desperate tone, "Vic is dead... I can't find him anymore..."
Yvina froze.
"I remember... I remember everything. Vic asked me to wait for him, and then asked me to leave. He cut off his own flesh... and asked me to leave. This is the truth. I ate his flesh, ate his flesh..."
It was not known whether he was desperately fighting against the other consciousness in his body, or because he was rapidly losing his language ability after being completely transformed into a wolf, but Ade's speech was incoherent, and it took Ivana a long time to understand what was going on.
A month ago, Vic brought the dying Ade to the sacrificial site.
At that time, Ader's condition was already very bad and he could lose his life at any time, but Vic couldn't find the reason and could only pin his hopes on the hunter ability of "blood healing".
Vic was a very smart man. Along the way, he realized that the sacrificial site was not as simple as he had imagined, and he sensed danger and conspiracy. So before arriving at the Blood Healing Hunter Statue, he stopped, just like what Ivana did tonight, and asked Ade to stay where he was, intending to find out for himself.
If there was no conspiracy and he successfully obtained the power of blood healing, he could go back and heal Ade.
If anything, he hoped that Ade would leave immediately and never come back.
But Ade was already seriously ill at that time, and there was no food around them, so he had no strength to leave.
So Vic's choice is... to cut off a piece of his own flesh and leave it to Ade.
That's why there's a part of Vic in Ade's body.
"I ate his flesh..." Ade said tremblingly, "I fled from here... I left him... Vic... I left him... I left him alone..."
Ade's voice became smaller and smaller, and harder to hear, like a drowning man who is about to lose his last bit of strength.
"No! Ade! Don't think like that!" Ivana's tears could not stop flowing down, but she still gritted her teeth and said to Ade, "It's not you who abandoned him, but he saved you."
“This… is the same!”
"No, it's different!" Yvina yelled, "It's totally different! He wants you to live!"
Ade's trembling body froze.
"He used his life to keep you alive, didn't he?" Ivana comforted Ade with words while slowly leaning towards him. "He wanted you to live and not come back, so you have to live with his share, don't you? Don't forget, you can still recall his words, you can still hear his voice... He has always lived in your body, hasn't he?"
Ade buried his head in the ground and kept sobbing.
"So, stay alive, okay?" Ivana walked slowly in front of Ade, "Don't be defeated by that saint. Let's leave here together, take Vic with us, and leave here together."
Ade was still crying, and Ivina reached out to its head.
"Let's get out of here together."
Ivana said softly.
However, just as her hand was about to touch Ade's head again, Ade, who had been sobbing softly, suddenly roared, and his pure silver hair immediately burst into dazzling arcs of electricity.
At the same time, it suddenly raised its head, its dark blue eyes filled with anger and murderous intent.
But by the time Ivana realized the danger, it was too late.
With a "puff", blood splattered everywhere.
The sharp claws swung from bottom to top, instantly tearing Ivana into a bloody mess.
Ivana fell into the mud again.
But the Pure Silver Wolf did not let Ivana go, but instead grabbed Ivana's head with another claw.
Ivina had no way to dodge and could only watch the claws fall.
Then there was another "puff" sound.
The claws stopped and blood dripped onto Yvina's face.
Yvina's eyes widened.
Because that blood was not hers, but... Ade's own.
Ade bit the claw that was reaching towards Ivina's head with his mouth.
Those dark green pupils, one was teasing, the other was angry.
"roar"!
With another roar, the pure silver wolf clenched its teeth and shook its head violently.
"Swish".
Ade bit off his claws forcefully.
"Ade!!!" Ivina shouted at the top of her lungs.
“Ah!!!!”
The Silver Wolf threw the broken arm aside and took one last look at Yvina.
Then he ran towards the statue of the Blood Healing Hunter without looking back.
"No... Ade, come back soon!" Ivina struggled to get up, but she was injured so badly that she couldn't even support half of her body. She could only watch Ade disappear from her sight.
Ivina knew why Ade went there. The look in his eyes just now had told her.
Because that’s where Vic ended up.
…
The huge creature curled up in the deepest part of the sacrificial site seemed to sense something and slowly opened its eyes.
"Ah, my saint." It said slowly, "You are finally... coming back to me."
