「卡帕啊，你那邊現在情況怎樣了？」聽筒後傳來義兄堇金急躁的聲線，斷續把話逐一吐出：「這下糟糕了，浮光淨土那個什麼什麼……黑血熱！黑血熱傳到來聖火城這邊了！」55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNHRhZ7NL3
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUIm2afUwn
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlYwnciPvO
「義兄，我……我不能再待在浮光淨土了！」卡帕無視堇金焦急問話，單刀直入地說道。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLTOCsySXD0

「我明白，只是現在浮光淨土實施了封閉，列車都禁止在浮光站停站了，我們也沒法派援手過來……」55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7cQhHOMvG
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPRsNHWZ3G
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfppJsOVVmN
「那義兄，我們還有什麼辦法可以回去黑輝淨土？」被重重壞消息壓迫下，使得卡帕開始情願激動起來，大聲續問：「既然沒列車了，是不是要我們徒步橫跨半個終界呢？」55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZggpHKZzWi
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOb9hlXW43F
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡssnmPccOQs
自知久留此地只會讓自己陷於殺人、妨害公務，以至藐視命運神等罪名，卡帕再沒法保持冷靜，想到此刻哪怕只有淨土以外之境才是最安全的地方，要冒險踏進黑霧盤踞的紅土荒野，他亦不得不擇而為之。至此他嚥下一口口水，平心靜氣說著：55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvbhY038Y3
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuFpjePkCC
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qOLHw8plG
「不然義兄您等我們一下，讓我們先回來聖火城再說。」靜默數秒後，他又抑壓住情緒，再三確定要冒險帶著膝下妲羽和烏普西朗踩出淨土，徒步回到聖火城去。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nYXPmRKDZ
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcQnPj7hx2x
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGfyxTeC1j
「等等！卡帕……」未待堇金回話，卡帕便掛斷電話，再次拉起兩小孩的手快步往淨土邊緣的圍牆前行。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NduLqg0tR

「但是樞密院的大人不是知道我們去了聖火城嗎？現在回去不就等於要我們去送死嗎？」55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNK5wA52G5
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhopj7Wxea6
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZDM6ayAoG
「不用擔心，要是樞密院的人還找你們麻煩，我敢保證他們將不得好死！」聽到「樞密院的大人」一詞，先前迷茫早已被衝勁本性徹底覆蓋。至此，卡帕嘴角輕輕上揚，邪笑著喃喃自語著：「反正我都打開先例了，趁現在回聖火城，聯合兄弟們向那幫命運神的走狗宣戰……正合時宜！」55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJd8HF0Tr1
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x4Ulrhtoe
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QSpGbzSd5
「可是，車站不是封閉了嗎？難道老大您想帶妲羽徒步走回去嗎？」比起樞密院的追捕，望見車站暫停運作，失去唯一的退路，才是妲羽當下更擔心之事。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhhw0gY4vX

而這邊廂烏普西朗很快便猜出卡帕心中決意。甫想到可以踏出淨土，那稚氣聲線又一再提起對他照顧有加的那位紅髮「哥哥」，對可能在歸途中與他重遇添上一絲盼望。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14AFVnqCOo

「可是埃美姐說過淨土外那些怪物會吃人，老大不害怕它們嗎？」除此之外，之前在列車裡親眼看到淨土外那些猙獰面目的黑色怪物仍讓妲羽歷歷在目。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaSgV1J3Eq

再沒有時間磨蹭之下，即使抱上萬般擔憂，妲羽仍不得不硬著頭皮，緊抱起橢圓星盤，在臨踏出淨土前一刻，她又不忘回過頭來，朝光柱曾經冒起之處留下一句禱告：55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNH9Mn9ubKb

淨土之外，再不見疫情陰霾下的愁雲慘霧，亦沒有死纏爛打的肥大身影，風沙飄揚於空蕩境界裡，拂起蘊含厄兆的空氣，為周遭添上另一種有別於疫禍下淨土裡所瀰漫之死寂。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MysMeikm4

三人沿城際列車透明的長管一路前行，腳步不息踏前，彷彿與時間爭分奪秒，務求盡快結束曝露在這片不淨大地裡的每分每秒。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡef5mFxlgMh

「啊！妲羽，妳借給我的魔匣失靈了。」路上，稍顯納悶的烏普西朗把橙色魔匣拿到手上把玩，見屏幕裡一片漆黑，無論手指如何按壓其中，仍不作半點反應。「原來在淨土外，真的會用不了魔匣……伊歐鎝他一定很寂寞了。」
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5gMwFfFpq
正因此而朝手上橙色魔匣嘟起嘴巴之際，烏普西朗突然驚覺身後有東西猛力抓在兩肩，瞬間讓他兩腳離地，整個人隨身後不速之客帶至大空上。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvF9Y3yePV

有別於站在原地驚呼的妲羽，卡帕不假思索便從驟現光子裡取出戰斧，使勁躍至空中，揮動斧刃橫劈黑影的背部，嘗試切斷它的雙翼，阻止它飛往高處。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNSSf5czaz
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LP3AGVZ8t
然而，刃尖只碰到黑影下的一寸空氣，黑影用上其飛行之優勢，翅膀只消幾發擺動便輕易避過卡帕的對空揮砍。與此同時，烏普西朗用力掙扎，又張開背部兩翼，強行把緊繃兩爪彈開，飛到前方與這禿鷹般形象的黑影拉開距離。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCUYKoEKg9
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATrYtYbvUR
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxFeMitbd2
黑影並未放棄抓住烏普西朗的機會，它拍翼前衝，再度張爪迎面撲來。形色倉皇的烏普西朗，只見右手突如亮起一串光芒，情急下他唯有舉起忽然從中無中生有的三叉戟，緊閉充淚兩眼，使勁朝前方連連亂砍。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qKHXUw8o6
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzAfPrAHDR
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KKYP6b8qf
意想不到地，欠奉規律、只管釋放全身蠻力的揮舞，意外地擊中黑影的頭顱，剛好在利爪要再碰到自己之前止住其猛烈攻勢。直到烏普西朗感到迎面撲擊久未衝擊全身，兩眼才敢緩緩睜開，卻見本來獰猛黑影早已在他的亂斬中煙消雲散，只剩一縷漸散的輕煙。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx63vfpORIA

等烏普西朗目瞪口呆地降落著地之後，卡帕便收起戰斧，蹲在烏普西朗跟前為其檢查傷勢。
55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscfdUuGMbv
「沒……我沒事。」烏普西朗輕輕甩開卡帕，對手上那把由黑水晶構造而成的三叉戟報以呆滯目光，除了慨嘆它的精美之餘，亦不禁思考它從何而來。55Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnESwdZqI10

或許對卡帕來說，這把發自內心、自光團而現形的武器是與生俱來的能力。然而，在烏普西朗眼中，他卻為此而感到詫異，也許在樞密院裡安穩的日子待久了，這把「藏在心裡」的武器就再無用武之地了。
