Chapter 36: The Bad End
"Hey, hey, what are you doing? ”
"Why would Lord Bradford ask to kill Sue?"
"Did he eat an illegal potion of his own making and break his brain?"
Not to mention the parties on the field, Kai's decision made the gladiators explode.
"Alas......"
However, for Leah, this is the end that has already been met. Abnormal gladiatorial battles, abnormal battle arrangements, all of this is to make Cerus and Sue fall in love and kill each other. That was what Kay Bradford really was for, the man was going to have Cyrus kill his lover with his own hands.
"Lord Bradford, please take back your order-!!"
Cyrus looked at the alchemist on the audience and said loudly.
"I'm sorry, I can't take it back. Do it, Cyrus. ”
Kay shook his head.
"Are you dissatisfied with the previous fight!?If that's the case, let's try again, I promise you, Sue is definitely a strong gladiator!! you don't deserve to lose her !!"
Cyrus was completely confused, he couldn't figure out why it had ended up like this.
[He got it...... He got it...... He really got it......]
However, Sue understood, and she suddenly realized that what little Lori said was right, and the man knew everything.
"Sue is a promising and talented gladiator, and to be honest, I really can't bear to kill her here. ”
"Then why ......"
"Why!?Do you dare to ask me why!?Who ruined this promising gladiator, who took away her purity, tell me. Cyrus !!"
Kai angrily interrupted the champion.
"No...... It can't be ......"
This time, it was Cyrus' turn to be speechless. He didn't expect it at all. The man really knew it all.
"Impossible? Why do you think it's impossible? You slaves can't hide your every move from my eyes!!"
Kai roared:
"Don't think you're a champion, I'm going to protect you. And you slaves have also been remembered for me, with me. No one can take the purity of female gladiators, otherwise, Cyrus and Sue will be doomed.
Instead of feeding Sue to the parasitic wasps, let you kill her yourself and give her the gladiator's death, that's my mercy!"
"I ...... I ......"
Realizing that it was pointless to say anything to Kai now, as if his neck was rusty, Cerus turned his head with difficulty, looking at Sue's eyes full of pain.
"Let's do it...... Cyrus ......"
Sue also understood. This is the gladiatorial arena, surrounded by the guards of the Bradford family, even if they want to resist, what can they do? Neither of them is a hero, in the face of a large number of soldiers, even if they can kill dozens of them, they still have to die here together.
"No...... I can't ......."
Cyrus stood on the chariot, his spear pressed against Sue's chest, but he couldn't get his hands down. The tip of the spear trembled violently. It was like his inner struggle.
"You have to do it, or you'll die!"
Sue shouted.
"But how could I kill you!?"
Cyrus was stunned.
[No matter what, please don't take away Sister Su's purity ......]
[Run away with Sister Sue, Cyrus, while the next foggy night hunt is time.] 】
I remembered what the girl had said. Killing the person he loves the most with his own hands, is this a punishment for not listening to advice?
[Slave ...... This is the slave ......]
Cyrus's heart was dripping blood, right now. He finally understood - the honor of the so-called gladiator did not exist from the beginning. They were nothing more than toys for the aristocracy, as they are now. Even if he exerts all his honor, he can't even save his own woman.
"I'm not going to do it. Sue. Let's take up arms and die together!!"
He came to his senses. Since there is no chance of recovery, let's die happily!
"Sure enough, you'd say that......"
Looking at Cyrus, who had already been released, Sue shook her head gently and painfully.
"You've been protecting me ever since, always, all the time. ”
She reached out with a trembling hand and grabbed the tip of Cerus's spear.
"So- this time it's my turn to protect you. Live, Cyrus, live. Go find Isa, she must know something we don't know at all, and you need her help. ”
The girl's gaze became determined, but this made Cerus feel extremely uneasy. In an instant, he understood Sue's thoughts.
"I love you the most, Cyrus. ”
However, it was still too late, and Sue grabbed his spear and, with all the strength of his body, stabbed himself in the chest.
"No--!!!!!"
The man looked at everything in front of him and let out a mournful roar. However, it was over, and Sue fell, blood staining the cruel and merciless sand. The eyes that once stared at him, pouring out warmth and love, gradually lost their vitality.
The girl left this world, leaving only a devastated man kneeling on the chariot and crying out in despair.
Leah looked at the scene outside the fence with mixed feelings.
And not only her, all the gladiators were silent, some clenched their fists tightly, allowing their nails to pierce their skin, and some smashed their hands on the wall with blood, they more or less understood that the so-called slaves had no honor and freedom from the beginning......
The gladiatorial fight is over, and a third-rate script of love and killing each other has come to an end.
All that's left is to clean up the stage.
That afternoon, a horse-drawn carriage drove into a dirty, walled wasteland in the main city, the ghoul cemetery, where the slaves finally rested.
Gladiatorial fights are always accompanied by death, and corpses are such things as corpses, if not handled well, it is easy for large-scale plagues to break out.
In the Duchy of Federo, in order to cope with the daily appearance of corpses, a ghoul cemetery was established, which had no tombstones and no grave keepers, but only domesticated ghouls, waiting to be eaten and wiped clean of the "food" thrown in.
"Hey!!"
A carriage bearing the Bradford family coat of arms drove into the area and threw the corpses on the carriage to the ground. It's daytime, and ghouls aren't around.
"Let's go, I don't want to stay here too long. ”
"yes, I always feel like a monster is popping up. ”
The two men who had transported the bodies left, and the wasteland returned to its empty solitude once again. However, at this moment, with a fluctuation, a man with white hair and a fat face appeared out of thin air.
"It's not my job to find corpses, though. Alas...... Who told you that this is the task that little Leah has given me?"
He bent down, pulled out the body of a woman from the pile of corpses, picked it up, and left the place. (To be continued.) )
