Venom simply got up and walked away, but you reacted quickly and caught him. Because you didn't have any clothes to grab, you had to grab one of his claws.

He probably didn't expect you to have the guts, so he paused for a second before slowly turning his head to stare at you.

"Hum?" He squinted his eyes suspiciously.

"… Please, please be careful."

Although he looked fierce and scary when he opened his mouth, the more you observed him, the more you felt a strong sense of dissonance. It was as if you couldn't feel at ease if you didn't say something to him.

Venom smirked smugly. After retracting his claws, he slowly pulled out his human fingers from your palm and rubbed your face with his cold fingers. "Just being careful won't kill him."

Casatie indicated that she was looking for Eddy. Why is he here?

Why does he know you?

You didn't even have time to think about where these two mysterious creatures came from. One claimed to be Slaughter and suddenly came to kidnap you, the other desperately chased after you to protect you, and now they're about to fight. According to the guy in front of you, he wants to kill the other one. The successive emergencies didn't give you time to think about the "why". You could only think about the "what" to do next.

Everything seemed to be connected and independent, but there was only one important person missing: Brock, whom Casatie was looking for, and Eddy, whom you were looking for. Where did he go?

— You'll know.

The guy who left you here and walked away said so.

You didn't even know his name.

"Bastard, trash, scum."

Slaughter once again dodged Venom's attack. He watched as Venom's sharp claws easily left a few deep grooves on the hard ground. "You gave me such a hateful name, but I haven't called you even once."

"Sir?

Master?

Or … "

"Shut up, bastard!"

"… Father?"

The next second, he was slammed diagonally downwards. The huge inertia didn't reduce the friction between his back and the ground until he crashed into a wall.

[That's great.]

A soft but excited voice sounded in his mind. [He won't let go of such a good opportunity.]

"Yeah … He wants to kill me so badly."

Slaughter felt as if someone was stepping on his waist, pinning him to the ground with a strength that almost crushed him. The face that appeared in front of him was just as he expected, murderous and furious.

[Try that!]

Lunatic couldn't hold back. [I can't wait!]

"… Be patient."

His sigh came to an abrupt end. His upper jaw and lower jaw were forced to tear in two abnormal directions under the external force. Venom started from his mouth, like tearing a disobedient packaging, and the colloid on his shoulder and neck began to make a jarring sound.

Be patient.

Every time Venom made a move against Slaughter, there would always be an unpleasant accident, and in all likelihood, it would be because of Slaughter's despicable actions.

Venom ignored the wounds that suddenly appeared on his back. This little trick had no effect on him, and the flexible colloid would quickly bind itself.

. but he didn't expect Eddy to be affected....

He did hear a faint groan in his mind.

.......

[Continue.]

Eddy gasped for breath, and her hoarse voice was obviously suppressing pain. [Separate them!]

Slaughter's bright red throat was exposed in the air, and Casatie's half face was faintly visible. The human below stared at Venom.

"Is this really okay?" He let out a vague laugh. "Leaving Eddy alone?"

The smell of blood in the air forced Venom to let go of Slaughter's hand. He turned around and grabbed Slaughter's arm that cut his back. He roared and threw Slaughter a hundred meters away.

This situation had never happened before. He almost inconceivably wiped his back with his hand, but when he retracted his hand, his black skin was stained with bright red blood.

"Eddy!"

Venom tried to manipulate the colloid around him to repair the wound, but the speed was inexplicably much slower than usual. "Are you hurt?"

In the past, even if bullets rained down on Eddie, he would not be hurt at all.

[As far as the result is concerned … it seems so.]

He took a few deep breaths, and when he spoke again, his voice had calmed down. [My business is not important.

Slaughter and Casatie are the urgent matters.]

"Your business is not important?" Venom laughed. "Excuse me, whose body am I on now?"

[Chatting at this time?

Are you serious?

Don't learn the bad habit of Slaughter!]

Everything that happened today was constantly refreshing Venom's rage. "You think I'm joking?

That's great, I'll rush up and give that son of a bitch a good beating. When you die from excessive blood loss, I'll tell them, 'I'm sorry, can we continue tomorrow?' because my mount went to meet God halfway! "

[Who the hell is your mount!?]

Venom sneered as he listened to Eddy's muffled groan from the wound. "Okay, then what about Brave Eddy?"

[… Stop arguing.]

Eddy took a deep breath. [Continue according to the previous plan.]

So in your eyes, the two beast-like creatures, one red and one black, began to fight fiercely again. Slaughter always cunningly made some wounds on Venom's body from time to time, but Venom ignored it after a short pause at the beginning and attacked Slaughter more ferociously than before. His stronger physique and his angered emotions made the current scene almost a one-sided beating, but Slaughter's recovery ability was too strong. No matter how terrible the wound was, it could recover in a short time.

This was not the way to go on.

You were so nervous that your palms were sweating, but you noticed that Venom would always throw Slaughter near the same place.

There was a pile of rusty oil drums there.

Another loud noise came from afar, and it made you tremble. You looked over and saw Venom nailing Slaughter to the ground with one hand and pointing at the oil barrel half a meter away with the other. The colloid melted and collapsed, revealing a section of human skin — and a gun.

But it was unexpectedly cut by a sharp gelatinous object that emerged from Slaughter's shoulder. With the crisp sound of the gun barrel being sent flying and falling to the ground, bright red sticky blood splashed on the ground.

All the blood in your body seemed to rush to your limbs in an instant. You pushed yourself forward with both hands and jumped down from the container that was a few meters high. When your right foot touched the ground, you felt a sudden numbing pain, and the sound of bones breaking made your hair stand on end.

But your eyes, your legs, and all your attention should be focused on the gun lying in the bloodstains. Every time you landed on the ground after running, there would be terrible pain. You had to step firmly and heavily. You absolutely could not lose your balance and fall.

You had never run so fast and so crazily in your life. Almost in the blink of an eye, you reached the destination and grabbed the heavy gun. Your heart was beating so fast in your chest that it was suffocating, but your arm was as steady as a rock. Without hesitation, you pointed at the pile of oil drums.

You didn't know where the first shot hit, but the huge recoil made your arm numb.

Venom heard the sound of your shot. He didn't care about Slaughter's arm that had turned into a blade and stabbed it into his shoulder. He leaned over and tore a horizontal wound from Slaughter's waist.

The second shot landed on the ground next to the oil drum, splashing a circle of debris around.

Your shoulder was probably bruised. You sat on the ground and used your knee as a brace to prepare for the next shot.

Slaughter was almost split in half on the ground. Venom broke a drainage pipe and stabbed his chest into the ground behind him. The wound on his shoulder gushed out bright red blood with every movement.

The third shot hit the oil drum.

Now you personally felt how much faster light was than sound.

Everything turned into slow motion in an instant, and the world suddenly fell silent after the gunshot. An orange-red flame wrapped in a white light suddenly lit up from the oil barrel, and a huge wave of air swept outwards with it as the center. The bricks and cement burst like foam rolled up by waves, and the tiny flame around the white light suddenly exploded, expanding a hundred times its original volume to cover all directions. In less than a breath's time, it burned in front of your eyes, but you were picked up by someone even faster. In the blink of an eye, you were above the high wall of the deep alley. Before you fell according to inertia, the flame of the explosion had already engulfed a row of containers by the wall.

The disaster caused by the explosion was far more destructive than the destruction caused by any living thing.

The belated loud noise was like a thousand boxes of fireworks exploding in your ears at the same time. You felt like your body had become a box full of water at this time. Under the terrible impact, ripples of water kept shaking in circles.

You didn't know how long it took for you to recover from the state of being unable to react. Only then did you find Eddie Brock sitting in front of you against the corner of the wall. He raised his hands and covered your ears tightly. There were wounds on your shoulders, wrists, chest, and even under your ribs that were slowly bleeding. Around each wound was some familiar black colloid that was slowly healing them as if it had a life of its own.

Eddy!

You shouted, but your ears that had been buzzing since the explosion couldn't hear anything.

Your right foot that was likely to be fractured was also tingling.

He obviously didn't hear you either. His temporarily out of focus eyes were blank.

After about a minute, he recovered. He blinked and looked at you. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly pulled you closer to check you up and down. He said something with an anxious expression.

What!?

You probably shouted at the top of your lungs: I can't hear you now!

His eyes slowly widened, and his face, which was already pale from the loss of blood, looked even worse.

You'll be fine in a while!!

As you shouted, you pointed at the wounds all over his body: How are you?!

Eddy was soaked in sweat and blood. Even his eyelashes looked wet.

He slowed down and mouthed to you. You repeated it twice before you could read what he was saying.

Are you okay?!

I'm not okay!!

You answered loudly.

Eddy was so frightened that he immediately closed his mouth. He turned his head to look at the moss in the corner under your angry gaze. He suddenly seemed to have a great interest in this small green plant.

You sneered.

He trembled slightly, blinked a few times uneasily, and looked back a little tentatively from the corner of his eyes. He was like a big dog that wanted to get close to you after being scolded but didn't dare to.

After a few times, he finally mustered up his courage and opened his mouth, intending to say something to you.

Black colloid appeared from every inch of his skin without warning. It quickly covered Eddy's whole body and swallowed his blank face for a moment. What appeared in front of you was the black guy with sharp teeth who always had a smirk on his face.

The whole process was like a scene from a sci-fi movie. You watched a normal human turn into an existence comparable to the final boss of a horror game in two seconds.

"Amazing." He squatted down and looked at you with a grin. "Much fiercer than that coward Eddy."

You were almost completely covered by his shadow. You had to raise your head to talk to him.

Because you were completely unprepared, you were scared when he opened his mouth. You took a few deep breaths and pretended to be calm and said, "You, you flatter me."

"I'm Venom."

His claws hooked onto your hair that was hanging over your shoulders, and he tugged at it from time to time. His ruffian appearance didn't show any lingering fear after surviving a disaster.

"Or rather," he smirked, "'we' is the venom."

You suddenly remembered that cold and wet feeling. You almost blurted out, "Blueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblueblue

"Oh … baby." He looked at himself. "I'm not blue."

"In the bar!" You felt like Sherlock Holmes had been resurrected on the spot. "It was you!" You slapped his paw. "You pulled my hair again!

It was also you last time!

There's more!!! "

[… The black partner from the comet became a part of him … Occasionally, he would eat the heads of some people, very, very bad people …]

"You even told me a story before!!" You were furious. "Do you know that I had a nightmare the next morning?!

Who talks about eating people's brains before going to bed?! "

Venom narrowed his eyes and stared at you. You were instantly put out.

"… O-just pretend I didn't say anything."

He smiled evilly. "I heard everything."

"Smurf.

Nightmare.

Bullshit. "He looked at your hand." You're still hitting me, huh? "

You quickly hid your hand behind your back. "I didn't do it. I didn't."

He slowly pulled out a smile that was definitely not friendly. "Do you hate me?"

"No, no, no, no, I don't hate you." You shook your head frantically. "Who said that? I didn't say that."

"Then, do you like me?"

"What???"

"Oh … that's a pity." He laughed in a low voice. "Arya hates me."

"I already said that I don't!!"

He remembered to take you with him when he was almost killed by the explosion. Now, he turned around and said that he hates you. That's too inhumane!

Besides, he seemed to be with Eddy. You can't possibly hate him!

It would be perfect if he just kept his mouth shut and didn't say anything obscene!!

Speaking of which, where did Eddy go?!!

When a person uses his second language to talk to others, he will always notice more information because he is fully focused when listening. For example, the other person's intonation and habits when speaking, and the voice that is vividly displayed by the foreign language.

The hoarse and long voice when deliberately dragging syllables, the casual rise in the end when expressing doubt, and the unrestrained mischief when snorting in a low voice. All these nasty and seductive characteristics are like a wildfire that ignites the blood vessels. You were about to be driven crazy by Venom's question, but your face couldn't help but blush under his subwoofer that was even more deadly after he lowered his voice.

"Why are you blushing again?" He touched your face with his knuckles. "It's exactly the same as when Eddy is scared."

He added with a smirk, "Your heart is beating very fast."

You lied. "I have a heart condition."

He looked down at the position of your heart.

You shook your head vigorously. "No, no, no, I'm kidding."

"Little girl," he said slowly, staring at you unhappily. "This is not a good joke."

"I'm sorry … I'll tell you another one?"

"Sure."

"…"

"Save it for later." He smiled. "Let's talk about it first. Do you hate Eddy because of me?"

"… I don't hate him." You said, "I like him the most.

That's why I'm very angry that he fooled me again. "

"Oh?

Then do you think it would be a good idea for me to come out and say hello to you before that? "

"No.

That's why I'm even angrier. "

You felt that Eddy's concealment was indeed reasonable, but he obviously thought that you would abandon him and leave after knowing it. "… Anyway, I'm very angry."

Venom suddenly seemed to have a good idea. "Can I kiss you?"

"Wait!!!" You were going crazy because of his magical brain circuit. "Why did you suddenly change the subject!?"

"Ah … Because you were angry before, but Eddy calmed down after kissing you."

“？

Then let Eddy out! "

"I won't." He narrowed his eyes. "You really hate me, don't you?"

"…" You're crazy. "I don't hate you.

I like you, super like you.

There can't be a more likable guy than you.

I can't wait to kiss you right now. "

Eddy also went crazy. [Damn it, let me out!!!]

Venom smiled and leaned closer, "Okay, then you can kiss me."

"…"
