22. Pathos

"Huh! Looks like I'm going to use the 'spare tire' move in this 'spare tire'. At this time, Custer bit his finger and quickly smeared the blood on the cross stigma, and in an instant he felt that the blood of his whole body was flowing into the "Blood Rose" in the cross 'entrance' of the Guò stigmata, and the barbs on the whip of the "Blood Rose" shone with a red light like blood. "I was wrong Dad, I didn't know how naïve I was until now, I couldn't let Poru fall into the hands of the enemy, if I couldn't seal you ......"

At this point, the entire body of the "Blood Rose" turned a blood-red color, and it danced wildly in front of Custer like an enraged snake. He looked at Poru surrounded by blue flames with a determined gaze and roared, "I will kill you with my own hands!" Like a red bolt of lightning, the Blood Rose stabbed through the Netherfire's defenses and stabbed into Poru's heart, as Boru's sharp claws stabbed him in the chest.

At this time, the collision of red and blue energy obscured the figures of Custer and Poru, and Mordred held the two short blades and said, "Godson is in danger!" Lancelot stopped him at this time and squinted and smiled: "It's not us who saved the 'little prince'." Mordred looked at Lancelot suspiciously: "What?" ”

Just as the little policeman was about to take Dora away, she suddenly broke free of his hand and ran to Custer and Poru, "Hey! Little girl! "Come back!" "Are you crazy?" The little policeman stomped his feet and shouted, and Dora's figure was quickly hidden in the light of red and blue two huge energies.

"Ahh Bright red blood flowed down the Blood Rose to his hands. Custer's hands trembled, his eyes widened, and his lips twitched for a long time before he uttered, "Many... Pull...."

The temperature of the blood splashed on her face, Poru's angry red pupils calmed down completely, and close at hand was Dora's back, her body twitching, and the sharp whip of the Blood Rose pierced her back. "Ahh Ahh

Custer held the "Blood Rose" in his hand, his brain was blank, he couldn't perceive the qiē around him, Dora's face was full of tears, and he gasped in pain. Custer was just mechanically calling out the name "Dora" at this time.

The corners of Dora's mouth rose slightly. Unconscious eyes curled at him. Custer's tears flowed unconsciously, and the hand holding the Blood Rose suddenly let go. Dora fell into Poru's arms. Poru's hoarse voice called out to her, and Dora smiled at him with teary eyes with the last of her strength: "Bo....Ru... Return... Come ......"

Poru felt the arm holding Dora's body sink, his eyes slowly closed, and Poru gently shook her body, "Ah... Ahh Two lines of blood-colored tears flowed silently from his eyes. Drops on Dora's forever frozen smile.

Castel stood still. His flustered eyes just stared at his blood-stained hands and muttered, "What did I....do...", "I ....... did... What "I ......"

Long silver hair obscured Poru's face, and he stopped making a "Ahhh Ahh Custer's mind was completely out of order. He swayed to get closer to Poru.

As soon as he took a step, he heard a hoarse warning from Poru: "No....to... Come...."Custer stopped, "I can't get it back." Thinking desperately, Poru carefully picked up Dora's body and turned to walk to Lancelot and Mordred.

The two of them bowed to him at the same time, and Lancelot whispered, "Your Highness." Mordred's red pupils glanced at Poru's fingers tightly around Dora's body, put his hand on his chest, and bowed, "Young master, we should go." ”

Looking at the back of Boru about to leave, Custer wanted to rush up to stop him, but because he used his own blood to enhance the fighting power of the Blood Rose, it really had a side effect as Willis said, and he stumbled and fell to the ground before he could run two steps.

Custer wanted to get up at this time, but all the strength of his body seemed to be drained, and he could only watch the figure of Poru holding Dora gradually disappear from sight, and he used all his strength to crawl towards him on the ground, as if begging: "You can't go!" "Stop! You can't do this! "Stop! … You belong to the Hunter family...... You can't go with your father's murderer....... please... Poru... Stop it... Please......"

Custer had never bowed his head and begged anyone like this, even if he was beaten half to death, he had never begged anyone like this, and Poru, who had regained his sanity, was a little moved by this, and he actually stopped.

When Custer saw that Poru had stopped, he tried his best to crawl forward, but at this time he didn't expect Poru to shout: "The 'Hunter' will be my eternal enemy!" The voice was still there, but his figure dissipated into view like the wind, and Custer's ears echoed with that resentful, categorical roar, and he felt as if his heart had been pinched so hard that it hurt to the extreme.

Lancelot: "Huh! His Royal Highness seems to have made up his mind. "Mordred has already drawn the short blade in his sleeve at this time, and stabbed at Custer, who was powerless to fight back!" Mistake... It's all my fault... Please punish me....I am willing to bear a qiē guilt....... please...... Please......"

"Come back !!" Facing the sharp blade that whizzed and pounced, Custer let out a final scream of despair!

The dagger was as fast as the wind, and the tip of the knife was already approaching in front of him, and Custer thought that he would really lose his life with infinite remorse, but then a figure suddenly appeared in front of him. Mordred's brow furrowed slightly. Custer looked at the familiar back and called, "Mom! ”

Looking at the housewife-like woman who stopped in front of Custer, Lancelot touched his chin and thought for a while and bowed like a gentleman, "Oh! You are the wife of Mr. Sergeant Willis. Shirley held a pistol at this time, staring at the two "black knights" with cold eyes. Custer looked up at his mother's back, and the fragment of his memory suddenly replayed in front of his eyes: "Christmas... Snowfield... Bell ......"

The dusty memories were all released in an instant, and the tragedy happened again more than ten years later, is this really the arrangement of fate? In a faint voice, Custer told her mother, "Daddy... They killed me... Poru....was taken away... I'm sorry... I'm sorry..."What Custer didn't expect at this time was that the first words of his mother Shirley were: "It's good that you're alive...""Mom..."There is no blame, no complaints, remorse, fear, helplessness, despair, a complex intertwined emotion finally turned into tears after hearing his mother's words, and he sobbed like a wronged child.

Lancelot looked at Shirley, who was pointing the gun at him, and then looked at his watch and said, "It's almost time," and as he said, he pulled out a pistol from behind, "Ma'am, who do you or I want to shoot first?" Shirley was stunned for a moment, and at this time, the little policeman jumped out of the low wall and shouted: "Don't shoot!" Gas! Gas! While Shirley was hesitating, the bullet had already shot through the window from Lancelot's breech.

"Oops!" The little policeman grabbed the road with his head in his arms and ran wildly, "Run!" Custer shouted at his mother Shirley, but his shout was quickly drowned out by the loud sound of the explosion, and Shirley pounced on Custer without hesitation, "Karl... Custer... You want to live...... In place of everyone...... Alive....... get back Poru...... Together... Okay... Live well......"

The last gentle words of her mother were in her ears, and the last scene in front of her was the kind smile on her tearful face, and the huge wave of air swept up the dust, and her mother's smile was buried in the darkness in an instant......

Two months later

Custer received a notice of admission to the police academy, and on the way to the police academy, he took a detour again and stopped in front of Dora's house, standing at the entrance of the original courtyard, he silently looked at the charred ruins, and everything that happened here was deeply engraved in his heart

"You two brothers are really alike!" "Stinky boy, did you review yesterday's lesson?" "Custer....live....find Poru....together....well....live well" Custer took out a lighter at this time and burned the admission notice, the ashes of the paper were scattered in the wind, falling on the pale yellow petals of a few daisy flowers left next to the ruins of the courtyard, Custer lowered his head and swore silently in his heart: "I will live until I bring you home... Poru"

Palermo Estate

Godfather Braham sat behind his desk when there was a knock on the door, "Come in." The wooden door was slowly pushed open, and I saw Poru wearing a straight black suit, walking in with steady steps, his posture was straight, his face was sinking like water, his skin was as white as falling snow, and his blue eyes flashed with a bewitching red glow. A smile tugged at Godfather Bream's face, "We've finally met, Al." I saw Poru lower his eyes and bow slightly, and replied, "Yes, we have finally met, Father." (To be continued......)
