The Only Ending for the Evil Count Pig Is Destruction

chapter 283



283 – Scene 283# Tears of Blood

*

The surroundings became dark again.

When the imperial army’s shouts and screams completely stopped, only the sound of sobbing remained in the darkness.

“Ah… Ugh…”

Ariel sobbed endlessly after confirming Kyle’s last words.

Until now, I thought Kyle had died fighting the demons, but I realized that he was actually labeled a traitor and fell at the hands of the imperial army.

At this point, Luna’s face changed from pale to her earthy color. When she saw the dark past of the empire, she was just as shocked as Ariel.

Even if it happened before she was born, her father her her, Maxim May Kahel, cannot help but feel great responsibility and guilt for the atrocities he committed.

That’s why Luna just covered her face with her palms and couldn’t say anything.

“You’re too much…”

Wendy covered her mouth and she was crying.

“This is so… It’s so cruel…”

As she said, it was an incredibly cruel past. Milliam’s past her, having witnessed the death of her, her one and only friend and benefactor her, Kyle, was devastating to anyone.

I felt like I knew why it was an ordeal of despair.

It was painful just to watch, but I was forced to feel Milliam’s emotions due to my sensitivity to her. Although it was prevented to some extent through ‘patience’, it was not possible to completely prevent mental exhaustion.

Her head was pounding.

If it weren’t for ‘patience’, I would definitely have sunk into extreme sadness.

In my heart, I wanted to run away from this ordeal even now.

But the ordeal is not over yet. Not all of the past has been revealed. Above all, the reason why Kyle ended up in such a miserable state was not revealed.

My guess is that the Kyle I saw earlier was already dead because she was killed by someone.

He was controlled by a mysterious technique. The vicious way of manipulating the dead was by no means unfamiliar.

The background is fully predictable. And it seemed like Milliam had already guessed that.

Okay. Even though it’s painful, now… There is no choice but to move forward.

I took a deep breath.

As I reflect on the fact that I have no choice but to endure this ordeal in order to approach the darkness.

Then again, as if an incandescent light bulb was turned on, the light illuminated a dark room.

“Who is there!?”

Milliam, who was in complete disrepair, encountered a group of imperial soldiers.

“Was there a rebel still hiding?”

“Hey. Looking at his condition, I guess he was caught and ran away?”

“Hey! “I won’t talk too much, so surrender.”

“…”

Millium calmly drew his sword. However, because the injury was severe, the hand she held the sword was convulsing.

The soldiers burst out laughing when they saw that.

“Phew… What are you going to do with that body? Are you going to fight us?”

“Surrender when something good is said. Young master. Then we can kill it comfortably… Huh?!”

Milliam’s sword closed the distance in an instant and pierced the soldier’s chest. A soldier suddenly fell down with blood gushing out.

“This… This guy?!”

The soldiers, who did not expect him to be able to do this injured while, believed to draw their swords. But Milliam mercilessly cut them down before they could do anything.

“I do not have time…”

Milliam walked with a limp, not even looking at the dead soldiers.

“Huh… Huh…”

Milliam moves to the next room, breathing heavily. The light followed him and continued to illuminate new rooms.

How long have you been wandering around? I couldn’t tell which room it was, but Milliam was desperately looking for something with her injured body.

“Doesn’t exist…” . Why…”

Milliam muttered in a nervous voice. He was looking for Kyle’s child.

Was it not even in the closet that Kyle was talking about?

He searched the rooms in the castle, but apparently couldn’t find Kyle’s child.

“Tsk… !”

Nevertheless, Millium did not give up and searched his her her her her her. This is the amount of time Kyle gave him, even giving her life away her. He didn’t stop moving as quickly as possible to get Kyle’s child out of this mess. Whipping his injured body her her, he searched all over the castle.

‘Wait… There’s something strange.’

As I was watching that miserable scene, I suddenly felt something strange. The condition of all the rooms Milliam wandered around was a mess. All his belongings she were spilled out and he had blood stains everywhere. This was clearly a sign that the imperial troops had invaded. Traces of atrocities that mercilessly harmed the people in the castle.

However, among the traces, there were no ‘bodies’ where they should have been.

“Where…” . Where is it…”

Milliam seemed to be so busy that she didn’t notice this fact. Because his mind was entirely focused on Kyle’s child.

“?! Cluck cluck… !”

Milliam suddenly coughs repeatedly.

Black smoke was creeping up the hallway where he was standing.

Could it be that the imperial army set fire to the castle? If so, it’s a big deal.

“Cough! Fire… We have to put out the fire first…”

Millium’s thoughts were no different as he went down the stairs, covering his mouth her and nose her. He fell down at times due to his injured leg, but Milliem kept walking without showing any signs of pain.

It was a scene that was difficult to open my eyes and watch.

There was not a single sound on my body. Nevertheless, Milliam was moving forward with the single intention of keeping her promise to Kyle.

How long did it take to walk like that?

Milliam arrived on the first floor of the Margrave’s Castle.

Grumbling.

The source of the smoke was the large drawing room we saw upon entering the Margrave’s castle.

“… !?”

For a moment, I frowned.

As soon as I entered the living room, there was a foul smell as if my hair was burning.

Seeing as Wendy, Ariel, and Luna seemed completely unaffected, it seemed like it was probably only conveyed to me through Milliam’s senses of her.

What on earth is that smell that makes it so disgusting?

A fire was burning fiercely in the center of the drawing room. The soldiers around were playing around there, basking in the fire.

Fortunately, it didn’t seem like the castle itself was set on fire.

“Ugh, it’s cold. Cold. There! “Put in some more firewood!”

Soldiers, working in groups of two, were carrying stacks of logs and throwing them into the fire. The logs that were engulfed in flames one after another soon burned with fierce force.

However, Milliam, looking at the flames, became as hard as stone. Like someone looking at something that shouldn’t be there.

Excited.

Suddenly, my heart started beating rapidly.

[Response to trials!]

[Your sensitivity is 70%!]

Milliam’s eyes filled with flame were shaking uncontrollably.

“Uh… ?”

Wendy tried to get closer to the fire when she felt something was wrong.

“That… ?”

“You shouldn’t look!”

“Hi?!”

I quickly covered Wendy’s eyes.

“Ship, Count?!”

“From now on, you must not look at anything.”

“Yes, yes?”

“Those b*stards…”

I cursed without realizing it.

Because I found out what the ‘firewood’ burning in the flames was.

“Ah…”

Milliem sat down on the spot as if his legs had become weak.

The ‘firewood’ the soldiers were putting in was corpses.

The ‘firewood’, which were probably members of the Roelgreen family and their servants, were swallowed up in the flames one by one.

The foul smell that Millium felt through his senses was the smell of them burning.

No one could move as the terrible scene unfolded before their eyes.

In particular, Milliam, who had been staying with the Roelgreen family here, seemed to be in shock and was unable to stand up. When he saw Kyle’s family being brutally murdered under the false accusation of being a rebel, his feelings were sinking to the bottom of despair.

The sensitivity is already at 70%. At this point, I couldn’t endure it unless I actively used ‘patience’ to suppress it.

“Who is there?”

“Hold on!”

In the end, even when he was discovered by the soldiers around him and dragged away, Millium could not take his eyes off the flames.

“This this.” Isn’t this Milliam? “I thought you ran away a long time ago, but what kind of grasshopper did you do to show up here?”

“…”

Milliam, who was kneeling in front of Dolan, was in no condition to talk at all. Having suffered from repeated cruel incidents, he was already exhausted.

“Well, that’s good. But what is that monster that looks like Sir Kyle? No matter how many arrows you hit, you won’t fall…”

“Brother Kyle… What happened?”

In response to Milliam’s question, Dolan waved his right hand. There was a bandage wrapped where his right hand should have been. It was probably cut by Kyle’s sword.

“I almost died too. Every time the monster swings his sword, his fingers and arms. Isn’t there anything left to do? However, he continued to swing his sword and continued to cut down the soldiers. Well, no matter what, it ended up turning into sand.”

“…”

Millium bowed his head. Even though Kyle fought hard until the end, he conveyed to me his frustration and resentment that he could not keep his promise.

“Captain! The purge of the rebels is over.”

“Ah? Ah. Is it over already?”

“It’s over… “You said?”

“Do you see over there? “

Dolan pointed to a red window… No, it was a burning village beyond the window.

“As you can see, the cleanup of those who rebelled has been completed.”

“Did they even kill innocent residents? .”

“Yes? What are you saying? They are all participants in the Margrave’s rebellion. No matter how much we tried to persuade them, they were rebels who hid Sir Kyle instead of handing him over. “We can’t leave even one person alive. .”

“You…”

“Don’t worry. Milium will be able to join them soon. Ugh, my bones are sore from being injured. Hey! Put in some more firewood!”

“Yes!”

Perhaps because the corpse alone did not burn well, the soldiers began bringing furniture from the castle and putting it into the fire.

Grumbling.

As the soldiers showed firewood, the fire grew bigger and bigger. Milliam’s eyes her, who were blankly watching the scene, grew bigger.

Excited.

His heart began to beat faster and faster as his emotions were conveyed.

“That…”

“Hmm? Oh, you mean ‘this’?”

The firewood Dolan wanted to put in was a wooden cradle. If I’m not mistaken, this is the cradle where Kyle’s baby was sleeping soundly. But the pure white blanket the baby would have been covered with… Everything was covered in blood.

“Oh, no… No… Please…”

Ariel, recognizing the cradle, sat down again. She desperately covered her own eyes. She tried to contain the pouring tears. She tries to ignore the unacceptable reality.

“… This can’t be happening.”

It was difficult for Milliam to accept it as well.

“A child who can’t even speak is guilty of something…”

But Dolan’s next words completely shattered his hopes.

“You sound weak. Of course, we purged every rebel ‘without exception.'”

“…”

Millium bowed his head. Her shoulders were shaking uncontrollably.

[Response to trials!]

[Your sensitivity is 90%!]

For a moment, I fell to my knees in pain that felt like my heart was going to melt.

My eyes became dizzy with emotions that even ‘patience’ could not suppress.

An indescribable emotion began to boil inside me. The feeling of falling endlessly to the bottom.

Pajik-

I felt something was broken inside me.

I wanted to scream.

I wanted to pour out words of hate.

I had the urge to destroy everything in this world if I could.

This is probably what Milliam feels. But he didn’t. I just mumbled something.

“… “I was thinking of becoming that child’s godfather.”

Milliam slowly raised her head.

“I planned to take care of that child like my own on behalf of my only friend.”

There was no expression on his her face her her her her. I looked up at Dolan with a face that seemed to have all emotions erased.

“Because that was the only way I could atone for him.”

At that time, I felt a hot sensation in my eyes.

Tear? As I gently rubbed it with my hand, I realized that what was flowing from my eyes were not tears.

“The blood…”

The palms were stained with bright red blood.

And just like that, bloody tears were flowing from Milliam’s eyes.

“However… “Now I will never be able to wash away my sins.”

Hands wet with bloody tears clenched into fists.

Meanwhile, Milliam’s expression showed no change in her.

A face that only a person lacking something can make. It was almost identical to the appearance of Millium seen in Tristan’s past.

“Fuha…”

“So what do you want me to do?”

“Hey, I was so scared.”

The imperial soldiers, who were momentarily speechless due to the unusual atmosphere, burst into laughter.

“What did you expect? There’s no way we can spare the foolish rebels who rebelled against His Majesty the Emperor, right?”

Dolan shouted at Milliam.

“All foolish people deserve to die.”

“… Really?”

“Yes. Those who are of no help to this country and to His Majesty the Emperor should not live. No, it’s not worth living.”

“…”

Milliam seemed to have resigned herself to silence.

“Ah! Captain. Now that I think about it, I guess I’ll have to deal with that woman when I get back.”

“That woman?”

“Ah. The Margrave’s wife? Well, even though she was a married woman, she was pretty even. “Go back quickly and make sure-“

Kwasik.

There was a sound of something soft being crushed.

The soldier who was about to say something vulgar looked down at his chest where the sound came from.

“Uh… ?”

There was a hand there that had squeezed his heart and burst it. By the time he realized that someone had pierced his chest with strength exceeding that of a human, he had already died.

“W-Who are you!?!”

“Everyone be on guard!”

Dolan was still the captain. He quickly widened the distance and was wary of those who unexpectedly attacked the imperial army.

Where on earth did it appear?

The bright bonfire illuminated the people wearing pitch-black military coats. They appeared without a sound, all wearing lion masks made of steel.

“Ah, Aslan…”

The soldiers who realized their identity muttered like moans. As private soldiers of the Ruelberta family, they were a ruthless group and were a notorious group in this country.

However, there seemed to be another reason why the soldiers were nervous.

“Hmm, how could these many troops suddenly…”

As if by magic, more than a hundred members of Aslan, not just fifteen, stood next to Milliam. He must have arrived in a hurry after receiving the order, but he wasn’t even out of breath or even moving. In addition, Roelgreen Castle is completely occupied by the imperial army. It was completely unbelievable that this many troops had come this far after being surrounded by so many imperial troops.

When this happened, the situation completely changed.

And Dolan, who realized the unfavorable situation, immediately shouted.

“Now, wait! Milliam! We don’t want a fight with the Ruelberta family! Mo, I apologize for attempting to take your life. The rest is motivated… I guess I was crazy.”

“…”

“However, now that we have eliminated all the rebels, we will return to the system immediately. The battle is now over. There is no reason for us, as allies, to fight among ourselves.”

“Right. There is no reason for us to fight.”

Milliem, who was quietly listening to Dolan’s words, slowly nodded.

“Surely, there is no benefit for me if I fight with you now.”

“Yes, that’s right! He is also wise.”

“So die.”

“…Yes?”

Dolan, who had been bowing her head, suddenly raised his head. Milliam’s face was there.

“There is no reason to fight with you. “The only thing left is a reason to kill you guys.”

“Now, wait… I mean…”

“Didn’t you say that earlier? Dolan.”

A face with no sadness or hatred, just an expressionless face spoke to him.

“All foolish people deserve to die. And those who cannot help should not live and are not worth living.”

“Well, that’s…”

“So I’m telling you to die.”

Milliam’s eyes were dark and cloudy as she said that. Looking at that, I realized.

Millium, who once wanted to follow Kyle and become a hero, has now disappeared.

“Even if you’re alive, you won’t be of any help to me.”

“Ugh… ?!”

Cold sweat broke out on Dolan’s forehead as he looked into the abyss.

“Woah, if you kill us, His Majesty won’t sit still!”

“No. He will have no choice but to remain still.”

“Yes?”

“Because dead people can’t help.”

“?!”

Milliam turned around, ignoring Dolan, who was speechless. And he gave orders to those who were waiting for his command.

“Kill it.”

Just before disappearing into the dark abyss, Milliam added briefly.

“Everything.”
