Chapter 35: A Man Who Craves Power (Ask for Collection!Ask for Recommendation!)
Out of the basement, Sully walked to a place where the sun was shining, and the knight behind him carried a wooden plank with a humanoid creature nailed to it, and it was the vampire.
"Put it in the sun. Sally said.
"Yes!" replied the knight. Since the other party doesn't say it, he finds the answer himself.
The knights put the vampire nailed to the plank directly under the sun.
"Hiss~" The vampire who was placed in the sun was like lard in a hot pan, and his flesh was roasted to a blur in an instant.
"Ah~ah!" At this time, the vampire also let out a scream of exhaustion. However, the screaming only lasted for a moment, and the vampire could no longer scream, by which time he was exhausted. Sally quietly looked at the vampire under the sun, frowning slightly, the speed at which the vampire's body melted at this time had slowed down considerably, far less intense than before.
After a few more moments, the flesh and skin on the vampire's body showed signs of being roasted, but the flesh did not melt again.
Sally walked over in a few steps. Come to the vampire's side, then crouch down and put your hand on the vampire's body. Doesn't absorb the potion. Sully pinched the other man's neck with his right hand, and by this time he could no longer feel the pulse, and he didn't know if he was dead or not. But Sully doesn't mind "killing" him one more time.
Sally's right hand strained slightly, and the sound of bones shattering came. In a moment, Sally withdrew his palm, and at this time, although the vampire's neck was still attached to his body, it was already a blur of flesh and blood, and some throat veins and other things had long been crowded together, and he was already dead. Although they are conscious, their vitality is still a fraction of that of the average heresy encountered by Sali. Sally had already absorbed the magic liquid it contained, but he was not satisfied with the amount of it.
Suddenly, when Sally's hand left the vampire's body, the other party's corpse turned red little by little, and finally turned black, turning directly into ashes.
"Okay, save me some trouble. Sally said lightly.
"Deal with it. Sally said, and walked alone in the direction of the study, thinking about the information in his head.
The last vampire had less than a unit of potion, which was too little. Was it because the knights' torture made him use too much energy to repair his body, or because he was exposed to the sun, or both.
Vampires are indeed afraid of sunlight, but the impact of sunlight is not as great as he imagined, and even such a weak vampire can't be roasted to death, so the influence of more powerful vampires should be weakened.
Now, he regarded vampires and werewolves as a special kind of heresy, and in his eyes, as long as it contained magic liquid, it didn't matter what it was, it was his target anyway.
Arriving at the study, Sally sat down at his desk and began to sort out the information that the knight had tortured.
....................
Outside the Wright Manor, in another, smaller manor. Three young men dressed in aristocratic robes stood by the window, just out of the sunlight that came in.
"Becky, don't be impulsive. One of the young men said. The three young men all wore heavy beauty foundation on their faces, and their bodies were thin.
"He just... Purified: My brother .." The young man named Becky trembled, suppressed the anger in his heart extremely, and squeezed this sentence out between his teeth.
"It's. . . Disgrace. For "people" like them, the most painful, shameless, and honorless way to die is to be "purified" by the sun, even though they have long since abandoned the so-called glory.
"We have to report this matter to the organization, and we can't do it for revenge alone. Only by getting the adults in the organization to go out can you take revenge on your brother. A young man next to Becky said that he was afraid that Becky would be carried away by anger and make irrational decisions.
"I know!" Becky said through gritted teeth.
The two young men next to "Huh" breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hey, when are you going to leave?" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind the three young people.
The three of them turned their heads, and on the sofa in the room sat a young man in a black rich robe, holding a glass of blood-red liquid, possibly red wine. Possibly.
"Lake. Don't you feel anything when Becky's brother is dead?" said a young man.
"Feelings, what do you feel? Crying for that One Trace member?"
"He's Becky's brother, and we joined the Holy Grail together. ”
"Smack!" the cup in the young man's hand fell to the ground, and shards were scattered everywhere.
"Get out!" said the young man gloomily.
"Lake... You.."
"Or, if I want to throw you into the sun. Lake said.
There was a moment of silence.
"Let's go. Walking to the door, Becky stopped suddenly.
"Lake, you have lost yourself in power, and our friendship has been severed ever since. ”
After saying that, Becky stopped and left the room directly.
After a long time, Lake muttered, "You don't know the cruelty of this world. "He's right to join the Holy Grail with them, but he's joining for a completely different purpose than theirs. They are for that "pleasure", and he is for power.
He was different from others who didn't train as a knight because he couldn't stand the suffering, and he couldn't become a knight because of his physique. But despite this, he began to train as a knight from the time he was able to train physically, day after day, year after year, but as the doctor diagnosed, he could not become a knight.
Later, he gave up, and he began to spend his days drinking like the other noble gentlemen. In the process, he got to know several other gentlemen. Fool around with them until the opportunity to change his fate comes.
Originally, the five of them joined the Holy Grail together, but now, he is the only one who has reached three marks, the remaining three are two marks, and that Kos is only one trace.
With the passage of time, they chose different paths, and the contradictions between them gradually revealed, this time the incident was just a fuse, even if it does not break out now, it will explode sooner or later in the future.
Just now, that idiot from Rondo actually directly said the name of the organization, and with people like them, he will be implicated sooner or later.
In this cruel world, only strength is my only reliance!
Lake poured himself a glass of "red wine" again, led it to the window, and walked straight out into the sun.
"It's a nostalgic feeling. Lake thought.
"Sally Wright. Lake slowly pronounced the name out of his mouth. 、
