"Brand Yo, you who are in the darkness should know very well that the darkness is 'abomination, nothingness, destruction...', so the more you are in the darkness, the more you yearn for the light, but ・・・・・・ you go out into the sun, you realize that ・・・・・ in the world we live in, the light is also false・・・・・・ everything becomes unbelievable. What do we end up with? It's nothing more than [the only thing you can believe in this world is yourself.] 】”
Charles looked at the red pupils at the entrance of the temple with a sloppy look in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled into a mocking arc.
The killer is a person who walks in the dark world, but when the killer yearns for the light, he finds that the blood on his hands and the darkness in his heart are more intense.
What is the ultimate consequence of this road called saving people, but killing people?
It can only be feared by everyone - monsters!!
Yes, ordinary people can't defeat monsters, and those who can defeat monsters can only be monsters.
"What has been done, there will be again. What has been done, it will be done again. That's not wrong at all, it's really the adult. Ahem... Now, you are walking on my old path, and I am a stranger to the killer who yearns for the 'light'. ”
He said something like a curse, but maybe it was also an admonition.
If Charles is already a 'monster', then everyone who attacked at night chose to go to the 'monster'.
Everyone in the night attack was silent, and it was precisely because they were killers who yearned for the light that they could clearly know how much blood was stained on their hands, and they also clearly knew how much evil they had on their bodies.
Even if one day you suffer retribution for this, it is a matter of course.
"Ah, this question, master, you can rest assured, we will never become like you."
Brand waved his hand, and the armor on his body disappeared, transforming into a broad-bladed Western broadsword.
"Unlike you, master, there are them by my side."
Brand came to Tazmi's side and patted Tazmi on the head with his broad palm.
"Big brother, your injury."
"Little things, little things, I can hold on."
With that, Brand struck a toned pose. However, for this action, blood gushed out from Brand's chest.
In this regard, Brand's face was also a little pale.
"Wow! also said trivial things, if you don't stop the bleeding, you will hang up, big brother. ”
"Ahaha, no problem, no problem."
Brand smiled and touched Tazmi's little head.
Not~~~!!!
Tazmi's face turned red, which was naturally not shy, but angry!
What's the situation now, and there's kung fu to joke about here!
"That's enough, lie down for me, and undress!"
Tazmi yelled at Brand for the first time, much to Brand's loss.
It's not just Brand who is at a loss, but the Red Pupils and their group are the same, and Tazmi actually yelled at Brand! And the content is still so powerful!
Completely unaware that the Red Pupils and the others had looked at him with gossipy eyes, Tazmi couldn't help but pull Brand's hand, then pushed Brand to the ground, and forcefully pulled Brand's clothes off.
In an instant, Brand's masculine upper body, with eight-pack abs and mermaid lines, was exposed in front of everyone.
"Black Hitomi, don't look!"
The red pupil subconsciously covered the black pupil's eyes with his hands, but he watched it with relish.
Lana turned her head shyly, even if Brand is a guy, but Brand's figure really has nothing to say, it definitely fits the taste of those deep resentful women.
"Oh yes ~ Tazmi has the potential to attack unexpectedly! Or is it that under the indication of the receiving, the essence is actually attacking?! ”
Leona looked at the tough Tazmi with interest, and his eyes sparkled brightly.
"Huh?! The tower..."
Before Brand could finish speaking, Tazmi's face darkened.
"Don't move, just be obedient!"
"Huh! Be! ”
Facing Tazmi, who was in full swing at the moment, even Brand was defeated.
As if aware of Brand's compromise, Tazmina was aggressive (blackened?). His face has also improved a lot.
Then, Tazmi took out some bottles and cans from his body, then opened them, poured some liquid medicine into the wounds on Brand's chest and back, and then shredded the clothes on his body into the shape of a strip of cloth and wrapped them around Brand's wounds.
"The bleeding has stopped, but it's only on the surface, the injuries inside are very serious, and we have to go back for treatment quickly."
Tazmi wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, and after doing all this, he realized that something seemed to be wrong.
What's the matter, why are people looking at me so weirdly!
Looking at Leonai's 'adultery, definitely adultery', Lana's 'come on, I'm supporting you', red pupil's 'it's worthy of Tazmi, I underestimate you a little', and most importantly, Brand's 'gratifying' eyes and 'smug' smile.
Bad! Bad!! Bad!!!
"Everyone, that ・・・・・・・"
"Yikes! Congratulations, Brand. Leonay squinted her cat-like mouth and patted Brand on the shoulder playfully.
"Hmm~ Although I know the ending, but, I have to say, Brand, you are too fast." Lana looked at Tazmi, then said something strange to Brand.
"Bless you." Red Hitomi gave Tazmi a thumbs up, and even Black Hitomi gave a thumbs up
So, what the hell is going on!
Congratulations on what the hell! What a strategy too fast! What's the point of blessings!!
Tell me clearly!!!!!!
Tazmi roared inwardly, but there did seem to be a slight hint of snickering joy.
"Blushed, blushed. Sure enough, Tazmi has been... Hehehe・・・・・"
"No, it's not! This, it's just because..."
"Because of what? Tsundere tower ~ z ~ m ~ "
Leonay covered the corners of her mouth with her hand, but the playfulness that flowed from her eyes could not be concealed.
"Hey, don't be kidding Tazmi."
Looking, the 'tsundere' Tazmi, who suddenly turned into a wife protector madman, hooked Tazmi's neck with his own one hand, and suppressed Tazmi's face on his chest, looking like he was obviously showing affection, but then Tazmi broke free.
"Tazmi's heart, I've received it."
This time, it was Brandra who passed Tazmi's hand and provoked Tazmi's chin, saying affectionately, and then Brand, who didn't give Tazmi any chance to react, shifted his gaze to Charles.
"Unlike you, the lonely master, only I have their presence by my side, and I am Brand."
Yes, unlike Charles, by Brand's side, there are companions, companions who walk together on the dark path of longing for light, support each other, and rely on each other.
When you are lonely, you will be lonely with your companions, and when you cry, your companions will cry with you, and when you are troubled, you will also have your companions holding your brains together.
However, as long as you have a companion by your side, you can always forgive each other, no matter how much pain you are hurting.
"Even one day, I really went down the wrong path. They're going to punch me in the face and pull me out of hell. So, with them, I have nothing to fear. ”
"In my opinion, everyone who is attacking at night is my world. If, in the future, even if the world is really saved, if everyone is gone, I will disappear, and my companions are like the puzzle pieces of the whole world to me, and when you sacrifice any of them, for me, it is a part of the destruction of the world. If you had such a companion by your side, master, maybe the outcome would have been different. ”
Brand's words made everyone's hearts, which were originally gloomy because of Charles's words, warm at the moment.
Oh, yes! If it weren't for meeting Charles today, maybe in the end we wouldn't have said that we cared so much about each other, after all, with such a good partner, it doesn't matter if you say it or not. Because, everyone can feel that as long as they are still together, they will face everything with a smile, and this mood will never change.
"That's right, old man, as long as the old lady has everyone by her side, the old lady is still Leonai! You can die in peace. ”
“・・・・・・・・”
Although, Charles wanted to complain, obviously it was supposed to be a very serious painting style before, but why was it so funny in the next second, and besides, he should have gone down to get a boxed lunch, but he still kept himself alive, and the author told the old man to get out and something like that.
・・・・・・Perhaps, the real sorrow may not be that you can't get it, but that you know that you can't get it. If ・・・・・ maybe・・・・・ who knows・・・・・ the only thing I know now is that I'm a monster named Charles. ”
Brand, who disagrees with such a bright smile, is used to hiding in a dark corner and licking his wounds silently, never expecting a trace of warm sunshine to shine on him, nor does he expect warm words to warm his already cold and scarred heart.
Pain or remorse. Nothing makes any sense.
"In my dreams, all I dream about is the color of blood. I couldn't tell if it was my dream or my heart's desire, so whenever I woke up, I felt a sense of relief. ”
"Is it the reality reflected in dreams? Or does reality reflect dreams? Who is the dream, and who is the reality? By now, it's a no-brainer. Perhaps, my nature is bloodthirsty, and the emptiness in my heart is just a reason for my own bloodthirstiness. ”
Charles didn't know why he was speaking his mind to Brand, no, or to everyone at the moment.
But, he knew, he had to say it.
"Selfishness is the narcotic of human nature, and the sins in you are like a heavy burden, and even if you have companions to share them, these sins will still crush you. Are you sure you want to carry this on your back? ”
The people who attacked at night looked at each other, and then nodded firmly at Charles.
"Once, when I was living as an assassination unit of the Empire, I killed many innocent people, and even killed one person who was very important to me (Martha). Even after she was resurrected, the scars on my heart still hadn't diminished much. For me, the pain and sorrow that was brought to me by that painful memory of happiness was so great. ”
Red Hitomi spoke first, and she once again recalled the time she lived with Martha, her six friends in Cornelia, and the Gozzi who was called 'Father'.
Where, there was the hard training of everyone, the motherly care of Cornelia, the careful help of Tsukushi, the disdain because of Guy's obscenities, the anger of captain Nahaxiu who mouthed a 'miscellaneous fish', the helplessness of Boni's brainlessness, and the feeling of being overwhelmed by the strange gaze that Green looked at him.
"But even so・・・・・・・・ if I had to choose between discarding it and keeping it, I'd rather keep this memory forever and let it grow with me. Although I don't want to forget it all the time, I believe that if I don't run away from it and keep bringing it to the end of my life, one day, I will overcome those past events and make myself stronger. So, I want to open my mind and try to accept it and believe it. ”
"Woo ~ red pupil sauce, it's really pitiful, hurry up and get into the arms of Leonai's big sister."
Leona couldn't help but take the red pupil into her arms, and used her huge and round plump twin peaks to hit the red pupil's little face heavily, so that the red pupil felt what is called an authentic facial cleanser!
Just use a thin piece of black cloth to carry out simple restraints, and even if you are standing, the fabric on your chest is held up high and a large snow-white giant **** is exposed, even if you just look at it, it makes people feel very plump and soft.
And at this moment, under the squeezing of the red pupil's face, the two big rabbits that are constantly deforming are full of reunion, and there is a sense of charm and seduction, which makes people want to reach out and feel the soft and wonderful touch carefully.
"Hmm! Ray, Leonay! ”
"Ha, so is the black pupil, come to my sister's arms."
Facing the black pupil who was about to sneak away, Leona waved his hand and successfully captured the black pupil and completed the feat of the sisters' double kill!
"Ah, how happy!"
Leonay sighed.
And the red pupil and the black pupil don't feel very good, but it's not too bad, but the black pupil is a little emotional, if Ma Yin is here, he can push Ma Yin to Leonai.
However, it is a pity that Ma Yin and Ciel have to be on guard around. (PS: That's why there is no scene between Main and Hill.) )
However, after a moment of playing, Leonay rarely showed a serious expression.
"I'm similar to you, old man, both orphans who haven't seen their parents since they were young, and I grew up in the famous slum of Slam in the imperial capital, and thanks to their help, so, for me, Slam is my home, and the people of Slam are my family."
"Later, there were nobles who played a game of riding horses and trampling on the dead in Slam, and I killed those nobles if I couldn't see it, and then I couldn't help but kill them when I saw the evil party, and finally joined the night attack for this reason, and I didn't dare to go back to Slam after exposing my identity not long ago, after all, going can only bring trouble to them."
"Then, at that time, I felt sad, and it was definitely not because I couldn't go to the imperial capital to drink!"
Leonay's voice became much quieter inexplicably.
"Well, well, there is a little, but the most important thing is that whoever holds something important, maybe not even when they have it, but when they sense it, it has slipped out of their hands. I sometimes wonder if it would be better not to get rid of that kind of thing, but before I knew it, I was carrying it again, and although it would be much easier to throw it all away, I couldn't do it, and it would be boring to walk without it. ”
Lana smiled, looked up at the beautiful moon in the sky, and thought to herself, everyone is the same.
"So it is, is your strength due to the weight you carry?"
Charles showed a relieved smile inexplicably, he really lost, completely lost.
Unlike throwing away all guilt and taking the initiative to fall, the group of people in front of them is taking the initiative to bear the guilt and then face it head-on.
All the people who attacked at night, no one was strong, because any of them had tenderness, everyone was weak, but the weak also had weak persistence, and this persistence was their strength.
・・・・・・ is really powerful.
"Master, this is how we have carried it all the way and come all the way. We have not forgotten the blood on our hands, but have just endured, before the new era that is coming. If we really can't kill people, we won't kill people, but in this era, we can't do without killing people, and if we don't care about it now, then the people we killed before will die meaninglessly. ”
Brand said sadly, whether it was as a soldier of the empire or as a killer of night raids, there were countless people who died at his hands, and how many of them should or should not die, Brand himself did not know.
The only thing that is clear is - to believe.
"I believe that behind this blood-stained hand and the life of my own victim, there is a new era in which everyone can live with peace of mind, and a new era that can make everyone laugh and laugh・・・・・・・・
"At that time, we can abandon the burden of [killer] and go to our salvation."
"Redemption?"
Charles looked at Brand suspiciously, he didn't understand why Brand would say that.
"Well, let's say atonement, although 'killing to pay for life' is one of the ways to atone for sin, but because this life belongs to Lord Yao, there is no way to commit suicide. Therefore, wandering the world, while saving more people, as compensation. ”
I see, at the cost of the sin of murder for the rest of my life, and then to help others, in order to atone for the sins of the past. ’
Perhaps, in the eyes of ordinary people, this seems to be just self-justification, in order to escape the punishment of death.
However, for people like Charles, who walk in darkness, carrying the sin of murder and then living a long life is far more painful than death.
"・・・・・・It's really hard・・・・・"
Charles's voice grew softer and softer, and in just a second, his voice was inaudible.
Everyone knows that Charles's life has come to an end, and Brand's attack is a fatal blow, and it is also the tenacity of Charles's vitality that has been able to survive until now. (PS: The truth is that the author doesn't let him die.) 23333333)
[Suddenly, I want to live in this world for a few more days.] 】
Charles closed his eyes.
[・・・・・ want to see the advent of a new era・・・・・]
With a relieved smile, Charles died peacefully.
At the moment of Charles's death, the body began to fall back.
At this time, Brand came to Charles's body and supported Charles's body with both hands.
"Good all the way, Master Charles."
There is sadness in the sad words, even as an enemy, but at the moment when he kills his mentor with his own hands, even Brand, a tough guy with iron bones, is inevitably sad.
Of course, no matter how long ago people or events, when you lose important people and things, you will always be sad and unforgettable.
------- Dividing Line--------
In a field of tea trees at the back of the temple, Brand dug four pits lined up and buried the bodies of Charles and three other old men.
The grave was very rudimentary, just covered with mud and then piled up with rocks, so simple that there was not even a tombstone.
"Big brother, is this really okay? Do you want us to ・・・・・?"
Brand shook his head, a bitter smile on his face.
"That's enough, let the master sleep peacefully here. In the future, it is enough to bring a pot of wine to worship every year. Don't worry, I'm fine, after all, as a killer, this ending couldn't be better. ”
Brand touched Tazmi's head.
"Walking on the path of the killer, there is both sadness and pain, oh, it should be said that all we have encountered are these things. However, since we have chosen this path, we can only keep moving forward, and we can take on the dirty role, and then use it to change the world, and after this goal, we only need to disappear quietly. ”
"We need neither the sympathy of others・・・・・・ nor the pity of others. As long as others can feel sad for us・・・・・ this is enough, and this is already the greatest understanding for us. ”
"Let's go. There's a lot more to come. ”
"Well, big brother, I'll always be by your side."
"Hmm! Is this a confession!! ”
"That's it, it's not! Big brother, where do you think of it!! ”
・・・・・・・・・
The sound of playfulness blew away the sadness that had been enveloping Brand in his heart.
This may be life.
Walking on the road called life, we will inevitably encounter many things that make us full of regrets, but even if we regret it, all we can do is to continue walking.
Even if I don't know when it began, the journey of life has become a kind of torture.
With each step, the road behind you disappears with no way back. Sometimes, I know that if I continue like this, it will be more painful, but I still have to tell myself to go on.
Life has never lacked shortcomings, on the road of life, everything has to rely on oneself - rely on one's own understanding, rely on one's own will, rely on one's own pursuit, even after doing something wrong, no one can change anything, and the most that can be done is just to make up for it.
It is the young people of the new era who destroy the aging empire and establish a new order, each with their own mission.
At this moment, no one thought that for Brand, it was just a duel between master and apprentice, but it did completely open the curtain of a new era.
(PS: I don't know if you understand the true meaning below, Charles represents the end of the old era, and Brand represents the beginning of the new era.) )
(ps: There shouldn't be anyone who can understand it, after all, the writing is not very good, and I can't write the deep meaning of those great writers.) Drawing a tiger from a cat should be called, right? Or is it not an anti-dog? (To be continued.) )
