Chapter 463: Marvel: Awakening the Little Universe at the Start Chapter 243
The relationship between the two is somewhat like that of a wolf and a bei.
Especially between the Black Witch and the vampires.
Vampires need to borrow the Black Witch's magic to walk in sunlight and shield their weakness, while the Black Witch needs the vampires to protect them.
In the era when a Black's life was not considered a life, many Black Witches sold themselves to vampires.
After all, who does it matter to sell to?
Catherine looked at the Sun Ring Hawk handed her, her eyes lighting up: "It works."
She had wandered for five centuries; perhaps she had few true friends, but she had many life-saving Sun Rings and safe houses storing blood. Frankly, within a radius of five hundred kilometers, there must be one of her safe houses.
Hearing this, Hawk handed the Sun Ring to Catherine: "Remember, seventy-two hours. This ring will vanish in seventy-two hours. Let's go."
After taking the ring, Catherine quickly put it on herself, then looked at the three in front of her: two ex-boyfriends who were not very friendly to her, and one Caroline whom she had killed before turning her into a vampire.
"Then they..."
"Show me your soul, and I Xu Nuo your release. Go ahead and leave; they won't chase you. But remember, my Xu Nuo is only this once."
"Thank you."
"No need."
Hawk put his hands back in his pockets, looking at Stefan, Damon, and Caroline before him.
"Let's go."
"Okay."
Catherine hesitated no more, nodded, and her figure, like a phantom, darted quickly toward the outside.
The next second.
Seeing this, Damon moved first, preparing to stop his ex-girlfriend, whom he could not love and thus hated out of love.
The deeper he loved before, the deeper the hate is now.
But the moment Damon moved, Hawk narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Eye Impact!"
"Boom!"
Damon, who had just started chasing the fleeing Catherine and was in a afterimage state, was instantly struck. With a "Bang," his whole body smashed into the mountain wall.
The rocks on the mountain wall cracked with a rumbling roar.
"Damon!"
Stefan, seeing his brother fall, shouted, then looked at Hawk, and his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
Hawk chuckled lightly, standing in place without moving a muscle, not even turning his Little Universe.
"Eye Impact!"
"Bang!"
Stefan, who was about to reach Hawk, broke free from his afterimage, then his whole body arched like a shrimp. With a "Whoosh," he flew rapidly backward.
Boom, boom, boom—
Several large trees in the distant forest crashed down in response.
Caroline...
She dared not move.
Just as Caroline was thinking about whether to move, Hawk's gaze locked onto Caroline.
Caroline met Hawk's gaze, and her body stiffened.
At the same time.
Taking this opportunity, Catherine had already successfully escaped, fled Waterfall Town, and was heading toward her safe house.
Facing Hawk's gaze warning her not to move, Caroline opened her mouth: "You are also Catherine's ex-boyfriend. Does my cousin know?"
Hearing this, the corner of Hawk's mouth curled up slightly, and he looked at Caroline with a smile in his eyes.
"What, you dare not attack me, so you bring your cousin to suppress me? What, do you still plan to tell on me to your cousin, my dear cousin?"
"No."
Caroline shrugged: "I can see you love my cousin very much, and my cousin loves you very much too. I'm just curious if my cousin knows about this. After all, Gwen is my cousin. If she doesn't know, I have the responsibility to tell her."
Hearing this, Hawk's expression became playful as he looked at Caroline.
"When I came over, your cousin said the same thing to me."
"What?"
"She said you are her cousin, and she wants to be responsible for you."
"..."
Hearing this, Caroline's expression froze, and she looked at Hawk.
Hawk smiled and said: "Your cousin said you are only nineteen, with such a bright future ahead, and asked me if there is any way to turn you from a vampire back into an ordinary person."
This was also the reason why he had just warned Caroline with his eyes.
It is clear that Gwen still cares quite a bit about this cousin; otherwise, she would not have asked him if there was a way to turn a vampire back into a human.
Caroline's pupils contracted.
"Cousin knows I am..."
"Ask her yourself."
"What?"
Caroline said this subconsciously, then saw Hawk, who had just finished speaking, standing in place and taking a mobile phone out of his pocket.
Hawk put the phone to his ear and smiled as he spoke to Gwen on the other end: "Gwen, your cousin plans to tell on you, saying I came to Waterfall Town not to accompany you, but to save some ex-girlfriend of mine."
Because after Hawk went out, Gwen, who usually waited for Hawk to return before sleeping unless specially told otherwise, was now standing on the lawn in the manor's backyard. Hearing Hawk's complaint on the other end of the phone, she let out a soft, gentle laugh: "Give the phone to your cousin."
Hawk answered, then tossed the phone toward where Caroline was.
"Your cousin wants to talk to you. Oh right, you can ask your cousin whether she believes I'm Katherine Pierce's ex-boyfriend."
"..."
Caroline instinctively caught the phone Hawk handed over, looked at the screen showing the call had already lasted half an hour, then looked at the teasing smile on Hawk's face, took a deep breath, and placed the phone to her ear.
"... Cousin?"
"Caroline."
Gwen's voice came from the other end of the line, gentle and calm: "I thought you'd fallen asleep. Perfect—if you're not asleep, come chat with me for a while. Don't you remember, when I used to come back to Waterfall Town, the first night we always shared a bed."
Caroline was silent for a moment, then answered. Listening to her cousin's voice on the other end, she tossed the phone back to Hawk: "My cousin wants to talk to you."
Hawk took the phone.
"Wen."
"Is the matter taken care of?"
"Two vampires left. I'm mulling it over..."
"Bring my cousin back. She's afraid of the dark."
"... Alright."
Hawk smiled and answered at her words, then hung up the phone, looked at Caroline: "Let's go. Your cousin says you're afraid of the dark and told me to take you back."
Caroline hesitated, looking at Damon unconscious in the rubble not far away, and Stefan unconscious in the forest.
Just as she was about to speak, Hawk had already arrived in front of Caroline. His right hand pressed on Caroline's shoulder as Cosmo energy surged.
'Sixth Sense—Teleportation!'
Whoosh!
Hawk and Caroline's figures vanished on the spot in an instant.
The next moment.
Two more figures, one white and one black, broke into the place.
It was the black witch Bonnie, whose speed couldn't match a vampire's, and Elena, who had Bonnie cast a haste spell on her.
Elena spotted Stefan lying unconscious on the grass at first glance, cried out, and immediately ran toward Stefan.
As for Damon?
The black witch Bonnie glanced at Damon unconscious under the rubble, then looked at her best friend, and also chose to run toward Stefan.
Poor Damon.
But those who are pitiable are sure to have hateful aspects.
In a word.
Hawk once again didn't kill Damon—not because he'd gone soft.
It was because he believed that once Gwen learned what had happened to her cousin, the first thing she'd do was have him chop Damon down.
It was only a matter of time.
After all...
What Damon did was too disgusting!
Hawk simply left Damon alive, to be used later as a way for his fiancée to vent her anger. He led Caroline back to the manor and reported to his fiancée.
Caroline stared at Hawk with a look that hadn't quite caught up yet.
Hawk, meanwhile, walked over to Gwen.
"I'll go shower first."
"Mm."
Gwen smiled and nodded: "I took out the toiletries for you, in that blue packaging bag. Use that shampoo that's still half left first."
Hawk answered, pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window, and walked into the manor.
Gwen waited until Hawk's figure disappeared before withdrawing her gaze and looking at her cousin Caroline.
Caroline had also come back to her senses by now. She watched Hawk walk into the manor, then looked at her cousin before her, recalling how in the blink of an eye they had traveled from the valley to here.
"Cousin, he..."
"Let's not talk about Hawk. Let's talk about you—how did you become a vampire?"
Gwen frowned and cut Caroline off.
A bitter smile appeared on Caroline's face.
"Cousin, I don't..."
"If you won't tell me, I'll have Hawk tell me. Believe me—as long as I say something to Hawk, Hawk can even pull out every memory from your childhood and browse through them. Do you know how Hawk describes vampires?"
"I don't know."
Gwen's face was expressionless: "Hawk says, let alone the Original vampires—even if you added up every vampire on Earth, in his eyes they're nothing more than chickens and tiles."
"I didn't say chickens and tiles. I said I wouldn't even look at them straight." Hawk's voice suddenly came from the upper floor.
Gwen looked up.
"Shut up. Go shower obediently."
"Oh."
Hawk's voice disappeared.
The corner of Gwen's mouth lifted. She understood in her heart that Hawk's sudden speaking up and his obedient reply just now were to back her up, but she quickly hid it. With a stern expression, she looked at her cousin: "So, you can choose to tell me yourself, or I can choose to have Hawk go out, drag every vampire in town over here, and then listen to what they have to say."
Caroline's expression went blank, staring at her cousin who, at the slightest disagreement, was ready to round up every vampire in town.
Gwen looked at the unresponsive Caroline and smiled faintly.
"Ho—"
