Chapter 38: The Inevitable End (Part II)

Greene Turn's survival was very lucky, but probably the most unfortunate thing for himself.

Lying on a white bed, a hideous wound almost split his torso in two from his shoulder to his left waist...... Half of his body's skin had turned into a pile of rotten flesh, dark red blood could still be seen under the thick bandages, and the two arrow wounds were not even a few miles away from his throat, almost killing him on the spot!

But the most shocking wound was not here - his right arm, the right arm of Green Turn's sword, was severed. When he was found, his entire arm was already decomposed, and if the rot was not removed soon, it would spread throughout his body, which was the only option for him to survive.

But there is nothing more vital to a knight than to lose his sword-wielding arm—his worth, his abilities, all his capital is on this right hand, and without his right arm, Greene Turn, without whom he may not even be able to win with a squire!

Because not only is there no right hand, but the balance and adaptation of the body, but also the various sensations are very different from the past - at least in Green's own opinion, the body is extremely weak, let alone a sword, and even lifting a finger has become impossible.

"Hey, what's that expression on your face—don't you think I'm dead?" Looking at Edward as he walked in, his expression as silent as water, the pale Green couldn't help but smile: "It's nothing, at least my left hand is still there—I'm not to the point where I can't even protect myself." ”

"It looks pretty good. Edward smiled slightly, "Seriously...... When I heard the news, my first reaction was that Green Turnn might never be seen again. ”

"Why?"

"Because this man will not back down, even when everyone decides to flee. He would still be standing in the square in front of the stairs. Because of that Greene Turn, whom I knew. In the eyes of the royal knight, there was only one word" Edward's voice was slight, and he slowly spoke: "Loyalty!"

The two people in the room fell silent at the same time, and after a while, the pale Green slowly spoke: "I killed them, killed everyone—they, they didn't have to accompany me to die, but now I survived." ”

"Because this is the will of the Radiant Cross. You can't die yet. Edward looked at him calmly, "You still have your own mission to accomplish - if you die, I am sure His Majesty Horace will shed tears for you." ”

"Perhaps. Green smiled reluctantly, he had never expected such a thing, nor did he offer his loyalty in order to be able to move His Majesty. After a while, Green raised his head as if hesitantly and stared at Edward's calm face: "I want to know something......"

"Gavin Brindisi - though not all, but he was indeed the mastermind of this matter, and the rebellion had little to do with the Duke of Berion. After a moment's deliberation, Edward decided to answer him like this: "It's a revenge from beginning to end, this is a crazy guy." And beyond the ordinary. ”

"You killed him?"

"I killed him. Edward nodded with a flat expression, "I put him through enough pain before he died—after cutting him into a stick, to be exact." With a baked knife, he dug out all his internal organs little by little, and then slowly killed him. ”

“...... He deserved it, no matter how cruel it was. After a slight pause, Green Turney slowly spoke: "If you have done so many things, if you let him die like that, it will be cheaper for him." ”

"But...... Edward, did you really do this because of his crimes? Or did you do it for some other purpose - it's not that I don't believe you, but the guy in my head wouldn't do such a cruel thing for no reason. ”

"Because he threatened me that if I didn't cooperate with him, he would kill Allen, Goodwin, Donner...... All my family and friends are so angry. Edward gave a rare wry smile: "In that case...... I couldn't resist the urge to do that myself. ”

Only then did Green nod...... At least that's an answer that he can accept. It is not incomprehensible that his family and friends are threatened, even if they are slightly out of control, at least Edward did not do it on purpose, and he will not say anything more.

"Take good care of your wounds, you immortal fellow, something good will fall on your head. Edward chuckled and said in a very relaxed tone: "Your reward should be back soon, His Majesty Horace has decided to reward you - the Turnes family has officially been made viscounts, and a manor outside Turin will become your family's fiefdom, very rich and beautiful, and it will be very comfortable to live in." ”

"Not only that, but this viscount is completely different from mine, having a seat in both the House and the Imperial Council, and is hereditary - if they pass the examination after three generations, the Turnes can still retain these privileges

"My father had always hoped that the Turnes family would be restored to their former glory, and he would be overjoyed to know the news that the Turnes family would finally be able to produce a nobleman. Green chuckled and nodded, "When that day comes, I will definitely invite you to the manor to cook it and taste the soup I cooked." ”

"Hopefully I won't be poisoned by this. With a slight joke, Edward turned and walked towards the door, only to be stopped by a voice behind him.

"So...... In that case, do I have to resign from the title of commander?"

Green's voice was as calm as a pool of stagnant water, and there wasn't even the slightest emotion in it. But Edward's expression couldn't help but pause, and his right arm holding the doorknob even trembled a little, and he took a deep breath before slowly calming down his emotions.

"Not only is it the commander of the Garrison Legion, but you have also been stripped of your title of Knight of the Royal Family - rest assured, your brother will become the Knight of His Highness Anson's personal guard as compensation. Edward, who said this, didn't even dare to look back at Green's expression, he knew very well how hard this would hit Green: "Probably tomorrow, this news will spread throughout Turin City." ”

With that, Edward turned and walked out of the room, closing the door with great speed. The moment he closed the door, there was an incomparably loud roar behind him, almost shattering the door!

Unwilling! Unwilling! Unwilling!

A knight died...... Edward sighed softly, but this was the most helpless ending. It was impossible for Glynn Turn, not even the royal knights, to continue to appear in the city of Turin as commander, not even for the royal knights - this was a compromise made by His Majesty Horace, a compromise made by all the nobles of Turin.

purged the aliens, imprisoned Berion, stripped him of his title of Duke of Hantu City, and even wiped out the Brindis family completely...... All this comes at a price, and if Horace can't even offer a suitable "price", what awaits him will be a collective confrontation of all the Turin nobles!

Horace couldn't see that happening, because that was what Berrion wanted most - he hadn't been able to win the support of all the Turin nobles yet, but if Horace did do that kind of stupid thing, it would be the biggest chance for him to win.

Grimm must be sacrificed, the commander who has been fighting against all the nobles of Turin from the past to the present, and has been ruthless from the Dominica rebellion to the assassination of the Duke of Berrion, and even purged the garrison again and again, causing those wealthy families to suffer heavy losses.

This was the most rational decision, and the most ruthless - all that Greene Turney did was to unswervingly carry out Horace's orders, but in exchange for such an ending, a most intolerable ending for him.

I would never let myself end up like that, Edward, who whispered to himself, cocked his collar and disappeared into the hallway...... (To be continued.) )
