"Darling, even though I'm very happy that you're here with on this beautiful night, watching the stars together..."
"Furina" tilted her head, her red eyes widening as she stared at Su Yuan, slowly walking toward him...
"But... didn't we agree? At night, you shouldn't go anywhere..."
Su Yuan frantically pressed the close button on the elevator, praying it would shut faster...
The elevator doors slowly closed, but the next mont, a loud bang rang out.
A pair of bloodstained claws suddenly forced their way between the closing doors, prying them apart with sheer strength...
"Darling... why didn't you wait for ..."
Blood-red tears had already started flowing down "Furina's" cheeks...
"Didn't we promise... to be together forever?"
Su Yuan knew he had miscalculated—the elevator doors couldn't close fast enough to escape the eerie version of "Furina."
And in this cramped space, there was nowhere to run.
He had to get out!
Gritting his teeth, Su Yuan made a split-second decision—he charged straight into "Furina"!
Caught off guard, "Furina" was knocked to the ground!
Taking advantage of the mont, Su Yuan dashed out of the claustrophobic elevator.
Su Yuan scanned the rooftop terrace of Palais rmonia, recalling what that lusine nad Sedene had once ntioned—Furina's private suite had a skylight roof, directly connected to the top floor terrace.
So people had previously jumped down from there, landing directly inside Furina's room...
If he wanted to get back to her bed before the eerie "Furina" caught up, this was the fastest route!
Su Yuan glanced at the fallen "Furina," unsure of her current condition.
However, she didn't seem to be getting up just yet, which gave him a perfect opportunity to locate the skylight!
Lying on the ground, "Furina" trembled all over, clutching her face and clawing at her own head, muttering under her breath:
"Darling... you actually dared to hit ... you dared to knock down..."
"Didn't we agree... that you'd always be my confidant... love , cherish for a lifeti..."
"Liar... liar..."
"You bastard..."
"Found it!"
After circling the rooftop, Su Yuan finally spotted a glass skylight below.
Without hesitation, he prepared to leap down.
But in the very next mont, an overwhelming killing intent surged toward him from behind!
Su Yuan instantly felt as if his life was nothing more than a flickering candle in the wind, on the verge of being snuffed out at any second!
In desperation, he summoned the Hydro elent within him, raising his right hand in an attempt to block the incoming attack!
But it was futile.
Against that abyssal darkness and eerie crimson power, his elental energy was as fragile as soap bubbles and tofu...
Su Yuan's right forearm was bitten off by "Furina" in an instant.
A wave of searing pain flooded his senses as blood gushed out violently...
However, using the force of the attack, he propelled himself downward toward the skylight!
As he fell, just to be safe and ensure that he wouldn't crash against unbroken glass, Su Yuan used his remaining left hand to condense a Hydro projectile and launched it toward the window below!
With a loud boom, the glass shattered instantly, and Su Yuan successfully plunged into the room.
He spotted the bed not far away and, without hesitation, lunged onto it, finally exhaling a sigh of relief...
Thankfully, there was this special shortcut between the rooftop and Furina's room; otherwise, he would've been dood.
That said, even if he had failed, it wouldn't have been a huge problem—he still had two chances to rewind ti...
But soon, Su Yuan started feeling that sothing was... off.
Su Yuan had slept in Furina's bed before...
This bed was certainly comfortable, but it felt different from Furina's.
Furina's bed was incredibly soft and cozy, making people feel at ease when sleeping in it.
But this one, while also soft, had a strange, unstable sensation—almost as if he were floating on water...
Wait, that's it! Su Yuan suddenly realized—it felt exactly like an inflatable waterbed!
He quickly looked around and noticed that the room's furnishings didn't resemble Furina's room at all.
At the sa ti, he beca aware of two puzzled gazes directed at him from a nearby sofa...
"Su Yuan, what are you doing?" Wriothesley asked with a baffled expression.
Then, noticing Su Yuan's injured arm, he quickly approached with concern.
"Where's your right hand? It's still bleeding..."
"Su Yuan, if you wanted to co to my room, you could've just used the front door. There was no need for such theatrics." Neuvillette mused, then glanced at his wound.
"And your hand—was it cut by the glass shards just now? That shouldn't be enough to sever it..."
Su Yuan was on the verge of tears.
Damn it... This is Neuvillette's room?!
Thinking back, though, it made sense.
That day when he woke up in Furina's bed, the mont she called for help, Neuvillette arrived imdiately.
That must an his room was nearby...
But Wriothesley, what the hell are you doing here at this hour?
Are you seriously planning to sleep in the sa room?!
"No ti to explain! Just tell where Furina's room is!" Su Yuan urged anxiously.
"I accidentally ran into Furina on the rooftop just now!"
Seeing Su Yuan in this state, Neuvillette and Wriothesley imdiately realized the severity of the situation.
Neuvillette pointed toward the door and said, "Exit the room, turn right, then take a left—that's Furina's room!"
"Su Yuan, you go first! We'll hold Furina back for you!" Wriothesley said, taking up a combat stance.
"Don't worry about ! Don't fight the Eerie—I can handle this!" Su Yuan shouted before leaping off the bed and dashing toward the door.
"Darling... has never laid a hand on before..."
"It was you... You taught my dear to do such things, didn't you..."
"You damn bastards... Give back the darling I once had!!!"
With Furina's icy voice echoing through the room, her twisted form suddenly leaped down from the shattered skylight above!
Neuvillette and Wriothesley exchanged glances, then gave a small nod, preparing for a coordinated attack.
Neuvillette's water and Wriothesley's ice—freezing and restraining Furina.
They knew it wouldn't be enough to stop her, but even buying Su Yuan a few extra seconds would be worth it!
Just as Su Yuan was about to rush out of the room, he glanced back at the scene—and for so reason, it felt eerily familiar...
Had he seen this exact mont sowhere before...?
But in the very next second, before Neuvillette and Wriothesley could even make a move, a thin vertical line suddenly appeared—running from their foreheads down past their noses and lips, slicing cleanly through their entire heads...
Their movents froze in place, and along the thin vertical line, blood began to seep out in fine streams...
Before Su Yuan could even process what had happened, Neuvillette and Wriothesley had already been sliced cleanly in half.
"Ah!!!" Su Yuan let out a heart-wrenching scream, unable to bear the sight.
How many tis had this happened?
How many tis had he watched his dearest friends die because of him—while he could do absolutely nothing?
Su Yuan stopped running.
Instead, he slowly turned around and stepped toward "Furina."
His gaze locked onto her, unwavering and resolute.
"Furina, I will save you," Su Yuan said firmly.
"I will completely eradicate the Eerie and free you from all of this suffering."
"Furina" didn't reply.
She simply plunged her hand directly into Su Yuan's heart.
"Darling," she whispered, her voice chilling yet tender, "what nonsense are you saying...?"
"If I can't have you, then at least... I'll have your heart."
