Chapter 10: This Killer Is Not Too Cold (6)
While everyone was sighing, Leon finally sighed.
Just as he sighed when he opened the door to Matilda, his sigh this time was so helpless.
Perhaps it was the only remaining kindness of being a human being that prevented him from doing such a cruel thing, he withdrew his right hand and silently left Matilda's room as if he had never been there.
His behavior also made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, and even many people applauded him!
Even if these nobles know that this killer may not have a good time in the future, and he may even be killed by this girl, but the brilliance of humanity at this moment also moved them who were a little indifferent.
"Maybe he can give up continuing to do such a dangerous job as a killer and concentrate on being his mercenary."
"Yes, just be a mercenary! Anyway, the city officials didn't notice him. ”
"They're definitely going to have a good ending."
"Of course! Definitely. ”
The nobles whispered, as if trying to convince themselves.
Of course, they also hope that the story will develop in this direction, because they have seen enough human darkness in this short half an hour, and they really don't want to continue to read such stories.
It's as if the filmmakers of the Shadow know what the audience wants to see, and at the same time know what the audience is wondering about.
Soon the audience experienced a feeling of 'sweet enough to remember the girl's heart that was thrown away many years ago', and the daily life of Leon and Matilda made people feel so good!
At the same time, they also have a deep understanding of what the setting of Leon's mission is like from the story!
Leon is a wandering mercenary who has been exiled from an accident to the newly established Rivendell, where he has to settle down.
He had lost all his money because of the accident, and he didn't even have any hope of going home - the teleportation array was too expensive, and it was so far away from the nearest city in Rivendell that he couldn't get there on his own.
In such an extreme situation, Leon, who is desperately short of money, gets to know a group of people who are hidden in the deepest recites of Rivendell.
This group of people is engaged in all kinds of illegal transactions, and it is this group of people who discovers Leon and gives Leon a new opportunity.
That is to help them get rid of people they perceive as 'trouble' or 'people who are standing in their way'!
Destitute Leon didn't have any options, when he first came to Rivendell, there wasn't even a mercenary union here, there was no quest source and no lot of money, he couldn't go home at all!
So he accepted the employment of these people, and since then he has embarked on an abyss from which there is no way back.
It can be said that this is a complete tragedy, because Leon has no choice, in order to survive in order to return home, he can only do this!
In order to return home and protect himself, Leon cut off most of his diplomacy, and he didn't even know that the Grand Prince Kane had brought the teleportation array with him.
He didn't know this until he was chatting with Matilda, but by this time it was too late.
Leon is not a qualified killer because he has his own principles - never kill women and children, never kill anyone who has not committed any crime!
So his missions are all very dangerous, and at the same time they are well paid, and even sometimes he is reluctant to do anything to those mission targets and prefers to throw them to the law enforcement team!
At this moment, all the viewers knew why this guy let go of the fat man named Jones at the beginning, it turned out that he was not a real bloodthirsty killer!
He is just a poor person who has been forced by life to become such a poor person!
Such a Leon is a real person, and his image touched everyone present.
Even General Audrick, who felt that this character was too fake at first, seemed even more silent, and at this moment he didn't feel that this guy named Leon was fake.
Even he felt that the story was not a fictional story at all!
Like the Guardian, he now began to believe that the mercenary killer named Leon really existed!
Because such characters, such complex hearts and complex backgrounds, and such a complex story cannot be imagined!
He lives alone in a small dilapidated cottage in Rivinedell, with only a potted plant to accompany him.
Although this man is extraordinary in killing, he will patiently fold his clothes, drink a whole glass of milk every day, and go alone to a small theater in the art district to watch an awkward stage performance.
And this person is also kind-hearted, he will go to pick up some odd tasks, and if the employer is also poor, he may not take a commission.
Or help someone in need, and after helping out, they will quietly leave without saying their name.
There must be such a person, and then he dug up his story and told it to everyone in this form!
As for what happened to this person, General Odryk didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it, such a person was too real, and truth was often a tragedy.
As General Audrick thought, this was truly a tragedy.
When the army of the city magistrate pressed the border, the end of this mercenary killer seemed to be predestined. No, it should be said that since he put that little girl in the room, his fate has been sealed!
When Leon used his war spirit to smash open the ventilation duct and wrap his beloved potted plant and give it to Matilda, many women cried silently. Because they are afraid, afraid to see the fragments that make them sad.
"Listen, listen to me, we don't have a chance to escape together, I want one to have a chance. Trust me, I'm fine, Matilda, I have a lot of money from Tony, we'll leave with that money, just the two of us, okay? Come on! ”
"No, you're just saying comforting words again! I'll lose you! ”
"No, you won't lose me, you have given me a taste of life again, the happiness I began to want to live, with care, with my own roots, you won't feel lonely again, Matilda, please, go away! Let's go! ”
Slowly pushing Matilda into the pipe, Leon said without hesitation, "I love you, Matilda!" ”
"I love you too, Leon!"
This sentence I love you made all the audience feel sweet, but such sweetness was too late.
Because the city magistrate and the law enforcement team had already attacked, the magic arrows and feathers blew Leon's hut to pieces with a violent explosion, and everyone was silent, because they felt that Leon was dead.
But the next scene made everyone's hearts flutter - they saw that Leon was actually disguised as a seriously injured law enforcement team member, and was taken out by other law enforcement team members!
This suddenly made all the viewers forget the rules of the theater, and they all began to cheer unhappily!
"Well done! This guy is really smart! ”
"Oh my God! In such an extreme situation, he can still come up with a way! What an amazing man, an amazing mercenary, it's a pity. ”
"Yes, that's a shame. If he's still in Rivendell, I'll hire him! Let him take Matilda into my realm. ”
"Don't dream, he's definitely gone out of here with Matilda. I just don't know where their destination is. ”
The gate was close at hand, and the audience resounded with cheers. Because Leon was about to walk towards the light, he had fulfilled his promise to leave here with Matilda, leaving the place that had made him desperate and returning to his homeland, to his homeland.
But in the next second, the cheers and exchanges were dumbfounded, and a huge suffocation enveloped the audience!
As the camera shifts, everyone sees Danny, the city magistrate, appearing behind Leon, and he is pointing a crossbow at his back.
A slow-motion sound, a ringing in the ears with a light piano sound, Leon's perspective slowly falling to the ground, his eyes full of light.
The camera cuts to Matilda walking down a sunny street.
And the camera turns back to Leon already lying in a pool of blood.
Stan flipped Leon over, but checked his life and death.
At this time, Leon used the last of his strength to activate the battle qi and stuffed an object into Stan's hand. His eyes were almost out of focus, but he spoke slowly to Stan.
"Stan Field?"
"Waiting to be sent."
"It's Matilda's gift to you"
Leon's bloodstained hands held the gift and placed it in Danny's hand.
Then his arms hung down weakly, and his out-of-focus eyes looked upward, seemingly piercing through the ceiling and soaring into the sky!
Danny frowned and glanced at a ribbon in his hand, and subconsciously pulled away Leon's clothes, and then found that there were all kinds of scrolls underneath, or the kind that had been activated!
"Hell."
For a moment, all the spectators watched the screen fill with the light of the explosion!
Their lips twitched, they wanted to say something but couldn't speak, and they were silent for now.
At this moment, they wish they were a woman, because they could vent their feelings unscrupulously!
However, the story is not over, all the audience watched in silence, until the heroine Matilda took the bonsai and buried the bonsai raised by the mercenary into the soil, which can be said to have replaced his life.
"Now we're safe, Leon."
When this sentence is spoken, the ending song "Shape· Of· My· The moment "Heart" sounded, a wave of sadness flooded the hall like a tsunami!
At this moment, even Josh, who was sitting at the front, could hear the faint sobbing sound in the entire theater, and even Avella, who was sitting next to him, could not cry for a long time.
As for General Audrick, who had always had a lot of ambiguity about the role of Demon Shadow and Leon, he slowly closed his eyes at this time. Not to mention, the rest of you.
