54 Chapter 54

Odette sat on the ground in shock for several moments after she slipped from his body. Her previous excitement turned to dread. Her heart thumped so hard it almost tore through her chest.

'This must be a joke, right?'

"S-somebody… Please help him!"

Her hands trembled as she reached into her storage backpack. She fumbled and pulled countless potions from inside. Odette felt her entire body shaking as she opened a red potion first. This could heal almost any wounds, which cost her nearly 2 gold.

"Please… Drink!"

Vincent couldn't help her as the red liquid only poured into his mouth then drizzled to the ground. She threw the glass bottle in anger as it smashed in the distance. Her body became hot and filled with small embers. Odette grasped another red potion in her hand.

This time, she gave up and emptied the potion into her mouth. A sour and vile taste filled her entire mouth as she tried not to swallow or spit the fluid out. Her body moved over his chest as she took a moment to stare into his lifeless eyes.

'No! I won't accept it!'

Electric current shocked her each moment, but she ignored it. Despite the damage it caused as her flesh tore and bleed in various spots.

Odette placed both her hands against his soft cheeks and stroked his pretty face with a look of deep affection. She lowered her head towards his, although this was to save his life. Her heart could not help race at the thought of kissing the man she loved for as long as she knew.

'Vincent…'

'Live please… I beg you!'

Tears filled her eyes as their lips touched for the first time since they were children. She covered his smaller mouth with her thick, juicy lips and used her tongue to force the two potions to enter his body. Odette lost hope and feel nothing but an excruciating lighting that tore through her body and despair towards his loss.

"Don't give up hope, young lass."

Odette heard a voice but could no longer check to see who it was as two massive arms grasped her head from behind. Her lips were now sucked by the man she thought was dead. No, he died. The part of him that died was the naïve boy who had spent his life until now.

His body grew to over seven feet and transformed into his sin form. She never saw this look and felt awe for a moment as his body filed with black scales that seemed to absorb the flames from her body. Odette felt a shock from deep within her soul.

It was like something was calling her deep inside.

No, not something Vincent was calling her. He felt similar to her! Vincent was a phoenix!

She felt his long tongue entangle hers as she felt her heart almost stop in delight. No matter what form she didn't care, as long as her beloved Vincent could live once again! Her own lips and tongue grew more passionate as she sucked on his sweet saliva and glossy lips.

'Ah, this pain can no longer stop me! I will give you my everything even if it means death!'

Odette burned with a deep blue flame that neither she nor the boy noticed. His body filled with black flames, which matched hers. It was as if the two flames accompanied each other to a dance and used the girl and boy's kissing as their medium.

"Mmmnph! Vincent, I've loved you since that day! Forgive me for everything, all the lies and acts. Nnnm~ I just want to be with you now, no matter what!"

He was inside a dark world where nothing existed. His eyes spotted something in the distance as he heard a heavy thunder strike down upon this world. His steps were slow as he traversed this strange land, where even the sound was twisted.

'Raizel… Silvaria… Efrita?'

'Are any of you there? Please answer me!'

Since he received no reply, he once again checked his surroundings. In the distance, he saw a beautiful blue flame that was attacked by the thunder from the sky. His heart felt a deep pain and sorrow from this scene as he dashed forward and pulled the flame into his embrace.

He wasn't sure, but felt this was the right choice, even if the massive clouds of thunder now amassed above him instead. Because the moment this flame touched him, the world became brighter. He could see a vast cavern with a stream and strange rabbits that looked tasty.

This blue flame lit his path and helped guide him back to reality!

"Brrr!" (It's dangerous! Handsome man, please run!)

The flame tried to tell him it was dangerous, but Vincent could not do that. His eyes felt the area was no longer dark or felt alone when this flame was near. His hand touched the flame and noticed that his body would erupt with black flames when they touched.

"Come, little flame! I will keep you safe, keep me warm and light the way. That is all I ask!"

The flame fluttered, as it could understand his words and intent. She didn't want to endanger this boy. She felt both nostalgia and affection towards this handsome male. Like he was her past lover or something. Deep within her, she felt a scream to never leave him and the flame shot forth like something possessed her and wrapped around his body.

Vincent's mind felt blurred. He could no longer sense his two summons or Raizel. There was only a brilliant blue flame that coiled around his body and warmed him up. He could not understand the language of this flame that crackled and hissed at him, but he could feel its deep affection and love towards him.

He opened his arms and embraced the flames even tighter. He wished it to enter his body and join with his own black flame that showed signs of forming a purple and black colour. The moment he accepted the flame, a strange jolt of electric assaulted his body and spirit like his actions were against god's will.

'Never! This kind of flame lit my path in this lonely dark. I won't let you destroy it!'

Vincent pressed the blue flame to his chest and turned his body over. He made sure this cute little flame would remain safe from the violent strikes that slammed into his back like a jackhammer. His golden eyes could only stare towards this flame that made him feel a sense of nostalgia.

He could swear he heard the distant words of a man who seemed familiar.

"That's my boy, fight it and show them all who you are! Surpass me and dominate them all. That's my Vincent!"

Meanwhile, in the cavern, Odette continued to enjoy her last kiss with her beloved. Blood oozed from her torn flesh, as only her face remained undamaged. She could feel the last strike that would kill her was close, as there was a sense of something that gripped her heart.

'My beloved Vincent, forgive me for not being able to spend our lives together. Or even tell you how I really felt. I must have hurt you many times, right? My actions and words made you feel despair? I hope you know you were the only man I ever held in my heart. No matter what anyone says, Vincent Schwartz was the coolest boy in the world! Even before you awakened Hehe!'

Cough!

It forced Odette to break the kiss as she vomited large amounts of blood. Her time was near, but she was delighted to experiences such a wonderful kiss.

"Here it comes… This is the last punishment, haha!"

She said with a tired voice as her body filled with wounds. Above her head was a black cloud of judgment that would strike her and make her become ashes. Odette knew it would follow her and tried to get off his body. But in the next moment, his thick muscular arms and enormous claws grasped her like a treasure and pulled. She then felt her entire world spin around.

"What!?"
