Yes, Maki Tono is in a tangle.

If it was him before, he was in his prime, and he was decisive in killing, he would definitely not be entangled. Either brainwash Amber with her abilities and turn her into a real doll (Maki has this ability, and Shiki's memories are what he tampered with). Either kill Amber directly and never suffer from it. Amber was still too young after all, and she didn't have much combat power of her own, so it would be easy for Maki to deal with her.

But now it's different. He is old, and he is no longer strong either physically or mentally.

Someone once said that when people get old, they will begin to recall the past, especially the mistakes of the past, and will look down on many things and let go of the attachments of the past. Maki Jiu is like this, once for ambition, in order to keep the family, in order to gain status, betrayed, killed indiscriminately, hurt many people, and his hands have long been stained with blood.

Regret it?

No, if he had to do it all over again, he would still do it.

Because of the existence of extraordinary powers, the mysterious world is more naked than the world, the weak eat the strong, and the hierarchy is strict. For a variety of reasons, such as geography and history, Japan is even more serious than that of Western society.

Living in such a world, in such a dangerous family, if you don't want to be knocked into the dust, you can only try your best to climb up until you become a behemoth, and no one can easily shake it.

Maki did it.

He led the Tono family to become the leader of the "half-blood" line, became a giant of Japan's mystical world, and became the administrator of the Tokyo area.

He became the finest head of the historic Tono family.

So, he won't regret it.

However, although he does not regret it, he still has some guilt for the people he hurts, and as time goes by, this guilt becomes deeper and heavier - although mixed with the blood of the "demon", he has never lost his humanity after all, which is why Orange finally decided to take action.

This puppeteer, who aspires to become an "immortal" and has stepped into the realm of the soul and embarked on the path of immortality, loves the most is the sparkle of human nature, that is, the brilliance of the soul. Everything she does is for this brilliance.

Maki Jiu, who walked in the dark for a lifetime, did not disappoint the orange in the end.

After secretly observing his daughter and the Amber Jade Sisters, and confirming the relationship between the three, Maki made a decision.

He's old and doesn't have much time left. But these children are still young, they should have a better and brighter future, and they should not be ruined because of their own darkness and their own mistakes, so use their lives that are about to burn out to do something for these children, which is considered a trivial atonement.

On that day, Maki left the hospital bed for a long time and called his family, clansmen, and servants to hold a banquet. After the feast, he feasted oranges alone, and the two drank until late, and no one knew what they were talking about.

Maki then summons Amber to his room, just as the nightmare began on the night of his eighth birthday.

The difference is that Maki does something to Amber like before, just makes her sit down, and then kneels on the ground with a "poof". He began to tell about his past, without embellishment, without shirking, but with an old and trembling voice.

With all that said, he threw himself on the ground. Not to ask for Amber's forgiveness, but to hope that Amber will focus all her hatred on herself. Whether it's to kill, chop, or torture, Maki is willing to bear it, but he doesn't want her to be angry with Akiba. Because Akiba treats Amber with sincerity and treats Amber as family. In order to protect Amber from being harmed, Akiba named her as her personal maid.

Amber sat in her chair in a daze, not imitating her sister's smile, her eyes blank, as if she had become a puppet again.

She just sat still, quietly, motionless.

Maki Jiu just knelt like this, waiting, motionless.

I don't know how long it took, Amber stood up and walked to the door without saying a word, she ended up doing nothing.

A second before Amber was about to walk out of the room, Maki stopped her. Amber turned around, and then she saw Maki Ku lying on the ground in an eerie position.

His right hand was passed through his left chest, and there were still fragments of his heart in his hand - he committed suicide.

When he was dying, he said his last prayer: "Don't be angry with Autumn Leaves, and don't let the fire of hatred get out of control and finally spread to my sister Jade, and leave a place for yourself and everyone." ”

He just fell to the ground and looked at Amber, at the girl who had been sent to hell by his own hands.

Look, look...... He didn't close his eyes until he died.

There was a long silence, a dead silence.

Amber let out a terrible scream, and then punched and kicked Makihisa's corpse as if she had gone mad.

Blood soaked her clothes, her hands, feet, face, and pink hair, and she was like a vengeful female ghost, constantly venting her hatred for her enemies, until before nightbreak, her strength was exhausted, and she fell in a pool of blood with Maki Jiu, who had long since lost her human form.

A long sigh sounded, and the door to Makihisa's bedroom was opened, revealing two long-haired women, one mature and the other immature, none other than Orange and Autumn Leaves.

Orange silently walked out of the room, leaving space for the most innocent of girls.

The moment the door closed, she heard a suppressed whimper, the grief of losing a loved one, and the relief that the poor girl could finally express her heart.

A little spark lit up, and wisps of smoke filled the air, and the puppeteer who could see the brilliance of the soul held his beloved "dragon smoke" to his mouth and closed his eyes.

She saw the last detachment of the scattered soul, and the color of chaos and filth gradually faded, leaving behind a most innocent determination, infused into the body around her that had already been hurt countless times.

She saw that the soul covered by the fire of hatred had a different coolness, although it was still very weak compared to the fire of hatred, but as long as there was an introduction and hope, she would one day find her way and no longer be lost.

She saw that the girl with the same characteristics as herself was constantly tortured by the imposed will, although she suffered a lot, but she never forgot her original intention, did not forget her true nature, and finally bloomed with a different kind of brilliance.

"It's beautiful. ”

The puppeteer with his eyes closed pushed open the window and let the morning light shine into the home, dispelling the darkness that had entrenched here, allowing the crisp air to flow through the mansion and take away the haze that had accumulated for years.

This ancient family has finally broken free from the entanglement of the karma and embarked on a new path.

The sky was bright and clear as glass.

PS: Anyway, the traitor can't understand some of Maki's operations, and he is decisive for a lifetime, but in the end he leaves so many hidden dangers. It's a pity that "Moon Hime" is not popular enough, otherwise it would be Shi Chen's turn to take the blame?

PS2: Come, read with me - it's all Maki's fault.
