Chapter 43 Chapter Forty-Three

There were times when the days felt like they would never end, Ferry recalls.After the sun went down, their matter still hadn't been resolved. The shutters are raised to greet the evening.He sat down on the spindle sofa and looked at Sadist sitting at the other end of Reese's study.The soldier, like him, did not say a word for a long time. Sadist had just dropped another bomb on the mess.First there was Tormont, Wells, and the young girl.Now, there is one more thing. "God, Asa..." Reese rubbed his eyes, shook his head and said, "Do you think it's appropriate to mention this now?"

"We've got other things to attend to. Also, no matter what you say, I'll have a private meeting with this secondary killer. Nothing to discuss." "Asa, brother...I won't allow you to do this." Ferry cringed at his twin brother's reaction, as did everyone else in the room.They were tired, but they also knew Sadiste well.He still has enough strength to make trouble. The brother just shrugged his shoulders: "The second person only wants to find me, besides, I also want to entertain him. For Bella, for Tormont, and for the girl hostage. I can't not go, let me I will definitely not do it as a backup."

"My brother, you are digging your own grave." "At least I'll do as much damage as I can before they kill me." Reese folded his arms across his chest: "No, Asa, I can't let you go." "They're going to kill that woman." "There are other ways to deal with this, it's just that we need to figure out how to do it." Sadist paused and said, "I want everyone to get out and let me talk to Reese alone. Except you, Ferry, you stay." Butch, Vishows, and Ricky looked at each other, then at the king.After he nodded, the three got up and left.

After the three of them left, Sadist slammed his back and closed the door: "You can't stop me. I want to avenge my Xie Lan, and I want to avenge my brother's Xie Lan. You don't have any reason Come stop me, it's my right as a fighter." Reese said badly: "You didn't combine with her at all." "I don't need any ceremony to prove that she is my Xie Lan." "Asa..." "What about Thor? Are you going to say he's not my brother? You were there the night I was introduced to the Brotherhood of the Black Sword. You know, Tormont's flesh is mine. I have the same right to revenge."

Reese leaned back in the chair, his weight making the chair creak in protest: "God, Sardiste. I didn't say no to you, I just didn't want you to go alone." Ferry looked back and forth between the two, he had never seen such a calm Sadist.His gaze is firm, clear-eyed, and he regards death as home.It might have been a memorable moment if the situation hadn't been so grotesque, even horrific. "I'm not the one who sets the rules on occasions like this," Sadiste said. "If you go alone, you will die." "Okay...then I'm probably ready."

Ferry felt his skin tighten. "What did you say?" Reese gasped. Sadist left the door and walked into the elegant French room.Pausing before the flames of the fireplace, flames swaying across his broken face: "I'm ready to end it all." "What do you want..." "I'm going to go out like this. I want to kill that second person. The real glory will burn my enemies to ashes." Reese's mouth loosened: "You asked me to agree with you to commit suicide?" Sadist shook his head. "No. But unless you chain me up, you can't stop me from showing up at that movie theater tonight. I just want you to make sure no one else gets hurt. I I hope you can order others, especially him," Saddist pointed to Ferry specifically, "to stand by."

Reese took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes again.He raised his head, his light green pupils shone like floodlights: "The Brotherhood has suffered too much death. Don't do it." "I have to go, I have to go. So, you have to order other people not to go." Long silence, tense confrontation.Then Reese gave him the shortest answer: "Then let's decide." The gears of fate turned, clearly pointing to Sardiste's death, and Ferry lowered his body helplessly, resting his elbows on his knees.He suddenly recalled the taste of Bella's blood, and he tasted a very special taste on the tip of his tongue.

"Feel sorry." He felt Reese and Sadist Zizi look over at him, and realized that he had said his apology.He stood up: "Sorry, please allow me to leave." Sadist frowned: "Wait, I want to ask you for something." Looking at the face of the twin brother, Ferry traced the scar that truncated the face, and the feeling of vomiting that he had never felt choked in his throat: "Say it." "Promise me that you will not leave the Brotherhood of the Black Sword after my death." Sadist pointed at Reese, "Swear before his ring." "why?"

"Just do it." Ferry frowned: "Why?" "I don't want you to be alone." Ferry stared at Sadiste for a long time, his eyes were ruthless, thinking about the echo in each other's lives.God, the two of them were really brothers who were cursed, although the reason for the curse was unknown, maybe it was just bad luck.However, he always wanted to find a reason. Logic... a logical answer is better than a capricious fate that throws you at will. "I drank her blood." He said abruptly, "Bella, last night, when I went to Havers, I sucked blood from her. Are you still thinking of finding someone to take care of me?"

Sadist closed his eyes, and a cold wave of despair came from his body, passing through the room: "I'm glad you did that. Now, are you going to tell me your oath?" "Come on, Asa..." "I want nothing more than your promise now." "Of course, whatever you want." God, enough is enough.He cursed inwardly. Ferry walked up to Reese, bent down and knelt down, with one hand hanging above the king's ring, and swore in the ancient language: "As long as I live, I will stay in the Brotherhood of the Black Sword forever. I humbly present this The oath, I hope it will reach your ears, my king."

"Your oath I agree with," Rhys replied, "kiss my ring, and prove your oath with your glory." Ferry kissed the king's black diamond ring and stood up again: "This scene must be over now. I'm going out." Walking to the door, he stopped and stared back at Reese's face: "Did I tell you how proud it is to be able to serve you?" Reese was taken aback: "Ah, no, but..." "This is indeed an honor." Seeing the Vampire King narrow his eyes, Ferry smiled slightly, "I don't understand why I suddenly thought of this, maybe it's because I was looking up to you just now." Ferry left the room, delighted to see Wei Xiaosi and Butch waiting outside the study. "Hey, guys." He put his shoulders on both of them. "You know? You two are a perfect match, a family genius and a human pool master. Anyone think?" The two looked at him strangely, He asked again, "Ricky went back to his room?" Seeing the two nodding, he went straight to the door of Hollywood and knocked on the door.Ricky opened the door, and Ferry greeted him with a smile, putting one hand on his thick neck, "Hey, my brother." He probably hesitated for a moment, but Ricky's keen eyes caught it: "What's the matter, Ferry?" "Nothing." He put down his hand, "Just come and see, you have to take care of your woman, do you understand what I mean? Lucky, lucky...you are a very lucky man. Goodbye." Ferry went into his room, expecting Tormont to be there.While lamenting for him, he began to arm himself, taking a half-way glance down the corridor.He heard members of the fraternity talking loudly in Reese's study. In order to avoid them, he disintegrated and teleported to the corridor with the statues, entered the guest room next to Sardiste's bedroom, closed the door and went to take a shower.He turned on the light and stared at his reflection in the mirror. He drew a dagger and grabbed the thickest tuft of hair.The blade sliced, severed the waves, again and again, leaving the red and blond and brown hair to fall to the ground in tufts that covered riding boots.At last, when his hair was only an inch long, he took a can of shaving cream from the case and sprayed it on his scalp, and took a tweezer from under the sink. Having nearly shaved his head, he shaved off what remained of his scalp.He tore off the shirt, and some hair fell into the collar, which made his neck itch, but his head felt relieved.He touched his scalp with his hands, and looked at himself in the mirror. Then he took the dagger and pointed the point to his forehead. The trembling hand drew the blade across his face, and rested on the upper lip in an S-shaped zigzag.Blood dripped like a fountain, and he just wiped it off with a clean white towel. Sadist armed himself carefully, and when he was ready, he walked out of the closet.The bedroom was dark and dark, and he had more to move about the room by habit than by sight.He faced the pool of light leaking from the bathroom, walked to the sink, turned on the faucet, bent down to pick up the cold water, splashed it on his face, rubbed his eyes, and drank some water from his palm. As he dried his face, he felt Ferry moving around the bedroom, though he couldn't see him. "Ferry...I was going to find you before I left." With the towel pressed to his face, Sadist looked at himself in the mirror, at those brand new yellow eyes.Thinking of all the ups and downs in my life, most of them are shit like shit.Only two things are different: a woman and another man. "I love you," he whispered, realizing it was the first time he'd used the word for his twin brother. "Just wanted to say it." Ferry walked into the bathroom and stood behind him. Seeing his brother in the mirror, Sadist backed away in horror.Ferry lost his hair, a scar across his face, and his eyes were dull and lifeless. "Oh, my dear saint." Sardiste gasped, "What the hell did you do to yourself..." "I love you too, my brother." Ferry raised his arm, holding a syringe in his hand, which was one of the two medicines left for Bella before. "And, you must live." Sadist turned and was meeting the fallen arms of his twin brother.The needle stuck in Sadiste's neck, and he felt nothing but morphine rushing into his veins.He snarled and grabbed Ferry's shoulders, but the drug kicked in and he fell limp, finding himself lying on the floor. Ferry knelt beside him, stroking his face: "I only have you to live. If you die, I have nothing and am completely lost. And, you need to stay here." Ferry stood up, and Saddist tried to grab him, but couldn't even raise his arm. "God, Asa. I've been thinking that this tragedy between the two of us will end one day. It has continued until now, don't you?" The sound of the twin brother's footsteps walked out of the room, and Sadist fainted.
