Upon hearing the extremely sensitive place name "Hamel", Yokent III's frown relaxed, and he even breathed a sigh of relief:
"Retribution...is coming."
As for the weird attitudes of the two big shots, Ya Xiu didn't notice at all, because his state was even weirder than the two of them.
He pressed his eyes tightly with his left hand, and the veins on both his arms and face were bulging, as if he was under tremendous pressure:
"My left eye... hurts... it has been hurting since I was a child..."
To be precise, after the tragedy that changed his life and the entire village happened, that scene was forever imprinted in his heart.
The village was burned by fire, and familiar people fell into pools of blood one by one, everywhere.
Red and black.
Blood and fire.
Screaming and crying.
Purgatory on earth.
Like a nightmare, it keeps appearing in front of my eyes.
No distinction between day and night.
Keep him awake at night and restless during the day.
This is the biggest secret of him, Ash Kabed.
He has never told anyone, not even his closest classmates and Lecter, who has taken care of him for many years. He has hidden this aspect even deeper than Miao Jie.
To put it bluntly, just like Crowe and Miriam back then, those who transferred to Class VII halfway through always have an unknown past.
"The scene is vivid in my mind...when I was taking care of my sick mother, I kept...hearing voices..."
"If you want me to kill the worst time, kill him, kill him..."
Perhaps because his words vented some of his emotions, Ash's only exposed right eye became focused, staring intently at the Iron-Blooded Prime Minister and the Imperial Emperor, who were less than three feet away from him.
"...The hunters who attacked the village were all annihilated, and the ringleaders were all executed by you..."
"Hamel has also disappeared from the map... The person who allowed all this is you, the emperor..."
"Queen Liber, who acquiesced in this matter, may also be guilty."
"...The same goes for 'the two people' who left me alone and ran away..."
"And the 'Scarecrow' guy who is the son of the ringleader."
The more he talked, the deeper Ya Xiu's resentment became. At the end of the sentence, an ominous aura visible to the naked eye even appeared on his body.
I saw him putting his right hand into his arms and taking out a mini pistol.
This weapon is made of special materials and can pass security checks smoothly. It is a weapon specially designed for assassination and espionage operations. He secretly hid it in a "flash of inspiration" during yesterday's spy arrest operation.
Until this moment, the murder weapon is in hand, and the murderous intention arises.
"Hey...tell me...who should I kill to get rid of this pain...?"
Being pointed at close range by pistols, the emperor and the prime minister were not afraid at all, but only felt regret and a little... understanding.
The emperor asked: "Is this a curse?"
The prime minister replied: "Well...it is the 'sacrifice' this time."
After saying that, the prime minister stepped forward and held his head high: "Of course you want to kill me. But don't aim at the heart, because it's useless to shoot there. Here, just shoot here."
This refers to the head. In order to emphasize it, the prime minister pointed his finger to the temple.
"If everything goes well, there may be a 'just in case'."
Affected by this, Ash let out a cry, moved the muzzle of his gun upward, and really aimed it at Osborn's head.
Unexpectedly, Jukent III actually shook his head: "It's useless, Ash. This guy is no longer a human being. We probably can't kill him this way."
"Your Majesty?" Osborne's expression changed slightly. He did not expect that the emperor would cause trouble at this time.
Yokent III first gave Osborn a determined look, then slowly stood up, walked closer to Ash, and stretched out his hand to invite him.
"No need to let young people work in vain - Ash, what happened to Hamel is all my fault. Free yourself from the long-term pain."
Osborne's right hand trembled subconsciously, but in the end he did not raise it.
At the same time, the ominous aura on Ash's body reached its peak, flowing out crazily through the shield of his left hand.
He roared and growled: "Are you kidding... Why... Uh oh oh oh oh -"
Finger pulls the trigger.
boom!
There was a gunshot.
But no blood was seen.
It wasn't that Ash didn't have standards, he was very sure that he was aiming at the emperor's chest.
The enlightened emperor did not dodge.
Osborne did not interfere even more, because he respected the choice of Jukent III, and at the same time knew that this was a necessary process of the "Twilight Project", which had already been clearly written in the "Black History Book".
Although "what if" is also recorded in the history books, this what if may be him or someone else, but it cannot be Yukent III.
The reason why there was no blood was that just before the bullet hit, a golden sword suddenly shot through the door. It not only broke through the door, but also changed the trajectory of the bullet in the air, allowing it to pass over the emperor.
But the golden sword fell downwards with the force of the collision, and was inserted right in front of the emperor.
The golden sword goes first, and the master comes last.
A young man with pale blond hair and a gray trench coat pushed open the door and walked in. His posture and words were exactly the same as Ash just now:
"excuse me."
Of course it was just the beginning. After that, he looked at the emperor and prime minister expressionlessly.
"First meeting, Emperor Jukent. And, long time no see, Prime Minister Osborne."
"You are - the 'Sword Emperor' of the Earnhardt... association."
Osborne's eyes widened, but fortunately he was an outstanding person who had reached the pinnacle of the empire twice, so he quickly calmed down.
"I heard that you died in Liber's mutation before. So that's what happened. You also came here because of Hamel. Hamel's first orphan, well, there's also a second orphan.
, Joshua Astley, no, now it’s Joshua Brett.”
Joshua came out from behind Lai Wei and nodded calmly: "Although it's not the first time we've met, it's the first time we've greeted each other like this."
Before Osborn could reply, he heard Ash howl even more shrillly:
"You... you two... why?"
"Why did you abandon me at that time...why did you ignore me for so many years...why-"
"Why - are you coming to stop me now!"
"When I can kill the worst person right away and be freed from this nightmare!
"
"I know, you are also an accomplice, so——"
The gun that had never been put down turned and was pointed at Levi and Joshua, the two last compatriots he should have regarded as his brothers.
However, the two people who were pointed at the gun, like Osborn and Yokent III, were not afraid, but only felt regret. Joshua followed the shadow, ducked behind Ash, and tried to lock his arms.
Unexpectedly, Joshua's strength was unexpectedly great. Fortunately, Joshua changed his joint skills in time and finally succeeded in the strongman lock.
Then Lai Wei walked up to Ash, first reached out and grabbed his gun, and then opened his arms to hug both Ash and Joshua.
The moment their cheeks met, Laiwei said sincerely:
