Tragedy 578 - West tower

Bruk!
Lucy bounced back and hit the wall. He grimaced with pain.
"Lou!" Aland stared bitterly at Arleta. The man then ran towards him with clenched hands, preparing to attack him.
Wussh…
Again the woman shook her hand. Aland was pushed back to the ground.
"It turns out you're just human? Hear that! You will not be able to win against me!" Arleta smiled with a grin.
"People like you intend to defeat me? That's right!"
Dorr! Dorr!
Lucy unceremoniously shoots Arleta with her thorny bits. Damn, the woman was too alert.
Arleta stops the bullet, then turns it on Lucy until she is stabbed by her own bullet.
"Akh—" Lucy groans in pain.
"Lou!" Aland got up limping and ran up to him. He was trying to help the woman.
"Lou, hang on." Aland clasped the woman's hand. Lucy's face began to turn pale. The poison effect of her thorny bits began to be felt.
As Aland knows, the bullet in Lucy's thorny bits has a small size like a thorn. Not only that, inside the bullet also contained a poison that could cripple his body in an instant.
Lucy was silent. He began to feel nothing.
"Lou, hang on." Aland immediately pulled out a bullet that stabbed into the woman's body and sucked out the poison. Hope to save Lucy.
"I told you, you're not my match!" Arleta chuckled at the sight of those who were so panicked.
On the other hand, Rei who was lying in a closed state slowly began to come to his senses. The man opened his eyes slowly.
As he opened his eyes, Rei heard a faint sound from a direction not far from where he was lying.
"Argh.." Rei grimaced softly. His head suddenly hurt when his vision was clear.
Rei began to rebel. He realized his body was bound, and he tried to free himself.
"Lou, please hold on…"
Rei could hear Aland's voice speaking out. He spread his gaze, trying to find the owner of the voice.
This sound…
Aland's? Lianas?
Rei could see both of them there. Aland seems to be struggling to help Lucy, while Lucy looks pale and starts to run out of energy.
What happened to them? I have to get up! I need to be able to escape this bond.
Rei continued to rebel. But his efforts were in vain. Realizing that everything he did was fruitless, Rei closed his eyes.
Louis.
The albino man appeared on the edge of the bed where he was.
Signore. Louis looked at Rei with a panicked face.
Lou, I need your help. Please let me go. I need to check what happened to Liana and Aland. Looks like they need my help.
Fine, monsieur.
Louis uses force, releasing Rei from the bed. The man was finally able to be free from the bonds that bound his body.
"Araa!!!" Rei was just about to wake up, but suddenly a pain invaded his head. His feelings were suddenly mixed, and strange sounds began to be heard along with the growing pain.
Louis tried to help Rei. He approached her to make sure she was.
Sir, are you okay?
My head hurts.
Let me help you.
Nah! You better help Liana and Aland. They need more help.
But, what about you?
The pain will go away…
