Illimitable Until Death

Chapter 692: IUD-Chapter 689 I Wonʼt Let You Sleep In for Too Long

“Zing!”

The blinding light emanating from Arcueid’s body became more and more intense, with each beam transforming into countless particles of light that continuously merged into the body she was holding – Fang Li’s body.

On the sidelines, Ciel could only watch this scene in silence.

Under these circumstances, Fang Li’s entire body began to change.

Twisted muscles were realigned.

Torn skin was mended.

Shattered organs were restored.

Ruptured blood vessels were healed.

Under the power of the strongest True Ancestor, Fang Li’s body gradually returned to its original state.

It was like a miracle.

Meanwhile, Arcueid watched as Fang Li’s face gradually regained its color, her expression becoming more and more distant.

At what point did she start to change?

As Ciel mentioned, before coming to this city, she should have been colder, more emotionless, more like a weapon.

But ever since she encountered something she hadn’t experienced in the past 800 years, the White Princess, feared by countless Dead Apostles, began to quietly change.

“When did it all start?”

At first, there was only hate.

A mistake made 800 years ago had caused Arcueid’s life to go off the rails.

Carrying hatred and obsession towards the culprit who caused it all, and with the vampiric impulses in her body reaching their limit and almost uncontrollable, Arcueid came to this town.

Arcueid knew this would be her last outing.

After that, the vampiric impulses, having reached their limit, would no longer be suppressable.

So, Arcueid had already decided – after eliminating this generation’s Roa, she would return to the Millennium Castle and sleep forever, never to wake up again.

Under these circumstances, Arcueid inexplicably met her death.

At the hands of Tohno Shiki.

“It was supposed to be the last time, but something unexpected happened.

“It was supposed to be the last time, but I used most of my power to resurrect myself, making it highly unlikely that I could eliminate this generation’s Roa or further suppress the vampiric impulses.”

“It should be the last time…”

With an unprecedented hatred for Tohno Shiki, Arcueid began her pursuit after the resurrection.

“I should at least kill him.”

To kill the culprit by splitting him into seventeen pieces, just as he had done to her.

So Arcueid found Tohno Shiki.

And there she met Fang Li.

“I was so filled with hatred, yet you insisted on stopping my revenge.”

“For me, hatred was the only emotion I had for 800 years, but you still stood in my way.

“At that moment, I really wanted to kill you too.”

And Arcueid indeed attempted that.

However, due to the considerable consumption of her power, the remaining power was used to suppress the vampiric impulses, and her injuries hadn’t fully healed.

Therefore, she was no match for Fang Li.

In the end, Arcueid collapsed helplessly.

“I thought I wouldn’t wake up this time.”

But when Arcueid awoke, the first thing she saw was the same infuriating human who had stopped her revenge, looking at her with a smirk and saying:

“Vampires don’t really understand human language, do they?”

It was a blatant provocation.

At that time, viewing Fang Li as her greatest enemy, Arcueid, unable to move her body and kill this infuriating person, was successfully provoked.

Finally, for the first time, the weapon shed its characteristics and became a person, with the first sentence marking the beginning of her transformation.

“It was such an incredible feeling.”

“It really was an incredible feeling.”

“I hated you so much before, but the moment we started talking, all that hatred disappeared.”

In other words, Fang Li turned Arcueid into a human being.

So Arcueid didn’t want to see Fang Li as a mere object to be fed on.

She wanted to treat him as a person as well.

Even if it meant giving up the innate power of the pure white princess, it didn’t matter.

Besides, Fang Li was more than that to Arcueid.

“For the first time, I wanted to talk to someone.”

“For the first time, I found pleasure in talking to someone.”

“For the first time, someone stayed by my side.

“For the first time, someone made me a promise and saved me.”

If all this was predestined…

“Then those 800 years must have been spent asleep, just so I could meet you.”

In that case, what would be the harm in going back to sleep again?

“After all, this time I won’t be as lonely as before.”

Even in a dream, it would surely be a joyful one, right?

That’s what I wanted to do, even if I had to trade the next 800 years that I finally got back.

“By the way…”

Why hadn’t I realized this before?

“So this is what it feels like to love someone?”

This feeling…

is wonderful.

The light began to fade.

The light that had emerged from Arcueid’s body completely merged into Fang Li’s body.

Seeing that Fang Li had fully recovered, Arcueid once again showed a satisfied smile.

“Goodbye, Fang Li…”

Her voice echoed from a distant horizon.

Arcueid gradually disappeared like a mirage.

Bit by bit, she disappeared on the spot.

“…”

Ciel witnessed all of this.

Then she picked up the unconscious Fang Li and jumped into the sky with a flash of lightning.

…

“This is what happened.”

In the room, Ciel ended with these words as she spoke to Fang Li.

“In the end, the True Ancestor’s power restored your body.

The fact that you woke up so quickly is probably due to her power.”

After speaking, Ciel fell silent.

Because Fang Li was looking out of the window, his eyes were still filled with calm.

Only his words echoed softly in the surroundings.

“That really sounds like something that idiotic woman would do.”

Is that Fang Li’s only thought?

Perhaps?

But that was certainly not his last thought.

The next second, Fang Li asked.

“Where is the Millennium Castle?”

Upon hearing this, Ciel immediately replied as if she had already anticipated it.

“I don’t know, because it’s not a place a human can reach.”

Hearing this, Fang Li nodded and then said nothing more.

After all, he only had three days left in this world.

Even if he wanted to do something, there wasn’t enough time to do it.

However, there was one decision he had to make.

“If you’re tired, sleep a little longer.

“Though I won’t let you sleep in for too long, that’s for sure.”
