Chương 15: Arc 1 epilogue part 1
[3rd POV]
" Fcking useless bastard!"
That was what Edgar thought. After all those years following this bastard and for what? He couldn't contain his anger when he heard Alex's words. Edgar has been following George for nearly 10 years, he was loyal to Geroge and always did his duty well. Even Alan had tried many times to recruit Edgar but was always rejected. Now Edgar started to regret that, what he hated more than a corrupted man like Alan was a useless being. He was a soldier, a former mercenary. There's a say: ' kill your deadweight before killing the enemy', Edgar believed in that, in fact, he was saved by that line. Edgar had fought many wars, the faction he chose was not the one that gave him the most benefits, but the one that gave him the feeling of fighting for a certain idea, such as 'justice'. At this moment George was reduced to a wild dog, what future would he hold if he follows this man? The only end for George and his followers was to die in a corner somewhere without anyone knowing.
The rage made Edgar draw his sword, if he could, he would just kill George and be done with it but right now Latina, George's daughter was still with Alan. Who knew what was gonna happen in the future if he was to left a witness. Edgar immediately aimed for the gunners. Most of them were disciples that he directly trained and had almost absolute faith in their teacher. So when his sword was just an inch from their necks, their eyes still had the look of surprise.
' Such a disappointment, after all the time I wasted to train you.'
In just a moment Edgar killed all the gunners then he turned to the 2 vanguards. As well as the gunners, they were too slow. The first man's head fell to the ground before he could draw his sword, Edgar cut off the second man's right hand. The guy shouted and just stood with his mouth gaping at Edgar dazingly, tears were welling up in his eyes.
" What a joke."
As Edgar's sword was about to cut off the guard's head, he saw a projection in the guy's pupils. Something was happening behind his back. A shot rang out at Edgar's head, just a moment of delay he would have died. Cold sweat broke out on his back but as a veteran warrior, he immediately regained his composure. The shot just now didn't have any killing intent, there was no sound or sense of moment from the shooter. This time it was Edgar whose eyes widened in surprise because the person who fired the shot was a 12-year-old child. Alex continued to shoot, the shots were absolute accurate at Edgar's fatal points, all of them were the same, without the slightest hint of killing intent. There was something about the kid's figure that made Edgar confused, he couldn't feel Alex's presence at all, as if just a second of distraction Alex's figure would disappear from his sight. Although Alex's shots are extremely accurate, it also became a fatal weakness, Edgar could easily guess the direction of the bullet before Alex could pull the trigger. In a blink of an eye Edgar approached Alex, he didn't hate Alex, whether Alex was a spy of Alan or not. Edgar's mind still felt a little hesitant when he had to kill a child. A cold swift sound of the metal cut through the air and the scenery became silent.
Looking at Alex's severed head under the oak tree with a bewildered expression as if he couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. Edgar clenched his teeth. He turned to the city lord, who was crawling on the ground. It all happened because of this guy, Edgar couldn't imagine a person that useless that not even be able to properly lifted his legs and ran away. A knife pierced Geroge's leg causing him to scream in pain. Edgar ignores George, he chased the people in the convoy and kills them all one by one.
" Wh—What's happening Edgar?"
" To think I wasted 10 years on someone like you."
" No! You want gold? Take everything, please let me live!"
" Sorry, but letting you live might cause me trouble."
Edgar leisurely walked over to George, putting down his guard, to Edgar, George was like a legless deer. After killing the city lord he was gonna take all the money George brought which was enough for a normal person to live a whole life. Mercenaries and the stuff like that Edgar didn't care anymore. He would go to a place far away from Alan's reach and also the rebels, even if he had to flee the empire.
While Edgar was thinking about his future plans, an unusual phenomenon occurred. Blood spread everywhere and the place George was crawling was now just a motionless corpse.
" !"
Edgar immediately took a defensive stance. ' Stab!' he suddenly felt a sharp object pierce his thigh, a dagger. Given Edgar's massive physique, this was only a minor injury, so instead of checking on the dagger, he immediately returned after looking for the thrower but that was his mistake. There was no one behind him, there was though a thing that shocked Edgar. Alex's body was gone, not only that, not a trace of blood on the ground.
After a few seconds, Edgar immediately felt something was wrong with his wound, he pulled the knife out of his thigh, it was covered with slime-like liquid with a strong odor. There was only 1 possibility, poison. The blood flowing from his wound turned black. He immediately ran in the direction where the knife came from. He didn't know the extent of the poison but his only hope right now was to catch the culprit and hope the guy carried an antidote. However, having only moved a few meters, Edgar fell, the poison made his blood harden and almost all of his blood vessels were ripped open.
In his dizziness he saw a figure from afar, a slender familiar figure was mocking him, before his body could no longer move, Edgar used all his remaining strength to throw his sword.
" Fck this disgusting..." Edgar cursed before letting out his last breath.
[Alex POV]
' Annoying crickets sound!'
How long had it been since I heard these familiar sounds? The chirping of the crickets felt somewhat soothing and peaceful, I opened my tired eyes, I guess it was late at night because everything around me was dark except for the glimmering light from an oil lamp. I was lying on a makeshift tarp on the ground, sitting beside me was a familiar figure. For some reason, just seeing this figure, I couldn't hold back my tears.
" Natalia nee…"
Hearing my call, Natalia immediately woke up, she hurriedly reached for the lamp.
" Alex!"
She gently held my head, I could feel my hair getting wet. I want to hug Natalia but my shoulder hurts like hell.
' Wait a minute? Hurt like hell? I am hurt…'
Like an instinct, I immediately braced myself for the horrible feeling that was about to come but nothing came.
" Nee san, this… is this a dream?"
Natalia gave me a warm smile and patted my head
' No way! Finally…'
Joy welled up in my heart, after so many years I was finally free from that damned curse, I couldn't believe this was true.
" Of course Alex."
" Huh?"
For a moment Natila's hand became rough and her voice suddenly changed to that of a man.
" I will never leave you, we're friends after all ~"
" No no no. Ahgghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! #!%$~#%!#!#%!%$^!^!^!#^~!$%!~^^!"
[3rd POV]
" Alex! Alex! He's finally awake! Damn it! Someone help!"
Although Sabatini and Natalia were overjoyed at Alex's awakening, it wasn't the first time they'd seen him go crazy when he was injured. Only the wound this time was very serious, Alex's whole body was bandaged like a mummy, if he kept struggling, it would only open the wound. Sabatini and Natalia used all their strength to hold Alex's limbs, but at times like this, he was unusually strong. The rest of the crew were busy working outside. Only the two of them took care of Alex and one more person. A young face poked inside the tent, a face of a young girl.
" Thank god! Quickly give us a hand."
" But, the meat would burn."
" Leave it! We will buy more later!"
Raven hair, red eyes were looking innocently at the two. Scattered on the white skin were scratches and scars, but if there was only one word to describe this girl, it was beautiful. The girl kept switching her look inside and outside the tent hesitatingly.
" Please Akame!"
