Protagonist:

Lin En

Lena

He extended his fingers, covered in blood and grease, and lightly patted Dominic's cheek.

The movement was frivolous, full of insult.

Dark green viscous fluid dripped from his fingertips, landing on Dominic's pale face, emitting a pungent foul smell.

However, contrary to Lianggenna's expectations.

Faced with his mockery and insult, Dominic did not show any expression of fear or despair.

On the contrary, he suddenly laughed.

It was an extremely carefree smile, even carrying a trace of mockery.

Even though he had lost his left arm, was covered in wounds, and sat on the ground in a sorry state.

But his gaze remained as proud as before, just as confident.

As if the victor standing there was not Lianggenna, but he, Dominic Wenturia.

"Xenos, do you really think killing me counts as winning?"

Dominic's voice was not loud, but every word was clear.

The smile on Lianggenna's face froze instantly.

His complexion darkened bit by bit.

What he hated most was this kind of gaze.

This kind of lofty gaze, as if everything was under control.

Just like those damn human generals before, they always looked at him with this gaze, looked at all Green Skins with this gaze.

As if they were born inferior by nature.

"The reason we humans are great has never been because of individual strength!"

Dominic raised his head, staring straight into Lianggenna's eyes.

His voice grew louder and louder, firmer and firmer.

"Even if I die, the remaining soldiers will come in a steady stream to kill you!"

"Even if they all die, the Empire will dispatch more fleets, more soldiers!"

"They will flatten Dolido, kill all Green Skins!"

"Even the entire James Tong can be buried alongside you and me!"

"No matter what, don't even think about going back alive!"

After speaking, Dominic burst into loud laughter.

The laughter was hearty and carefree, filled with the spirit of facing death calmly.

In the empty hall, his laughter drowned out Lianggenna's heavy breathing.

Listening to Dominic's laughter, Lianggenna felt incomparably irritable.

A nameless fire fiercely surged up from the bottom of his heart.

He really hated this feeling.

It was as if the one who had just taken the enemy general's head amidst thousands of troops was the other side, not him.

This feeling of having his momentum suppressed made him very displeased, extremely displeased!

He wanted to tear this shrimp's mouth to shreds!

Make it so he could never laugh again!

Lianggenna did not continue speaking.

He merely raised his fist.

This punch, he used all his strength.

He wanted to smash Dominic's head, along with that damn pride of his, together into flesh pulp!

"Go die, arrogant shrimp!"

Lianggenna roared in anger, his fist carrying a whistling wind sound, smashing fiercely toward Dominic's head.

Dominic closed his eyes.

He did not dodge, nor did he beg for mercy.

He had already prepared to sacrifice himself for the Emperor.

To die on the battlefield is the highest glory for an Imperial soldier.

But just at the moment the fist was about to smash into Dominic's head.

"Whoosh!"

A black shadow darted out from the side.

He used his own body to block in front of Dominic.

"Puchi!!!"

Lianggenna's fist, without suspense, pierced through his chest.

The enormous force punched through his entire body.

Fresh blood mixed with metal fragments and hydraulic oil spurted out like a fountain, splashing all over Dominic's face.

Scalding fresh blood fell onto Dominic's face.

He fiercely opened his eyes.

What met his gaze was a familiar face.

It was that Imperial Lion Fire Guard who had previously been slapped flying by Lianggenna and embedded in the Wall.

Half of his body had already been smashed into a distorted deformity.

Fragments of armor were deeply embedded in his flesh and blood.

That he could survive until now was itself a miracle.

Fresh blood continuously surged from the Guard's mouth.

He looked at the unscathed Dominic, and on his originally pained face, a trace of relieved smile actually appeared.

"Made... made it in time......"

He used the last bit of strength to speak these words.

Afterwards, his head drooped down powerlessly.

His eyes closed forever.

But his body still dead-firmly blocked in front of Dominic.

"Haisen!!!"

Dominic let out a heart-rending roar.

His eyes instantly turned blood-red.

Tears, mixed with fresh blood, slid from the corners of his eyes.

Haisen was his earliest batch of Escorts.

Following him for over a decade already.

They had experienced countless life-and-deaths together.

He had long since regarded Haisen as his own brother.

Now, Haisen to save him, "once again" died before his eyes.

Yet he still could do nothing.

An indescribable anger and self-blame, like countless poisonous insects, gnawed at Dominic's heart.

He does not need others to sacrifice for him!

Does not need it!

He would rather die here himself!

Than watch these loyal soldiers, one by one, die to protect him!

"Ah!!!"

Dominic let out a beast-like howl.

He dragged his ravaged Green Skin Body, struggling to climb up from the ground.

He picked up a sharp Metal Fragment from the ground.

Although he only had a Right Hand left, even standing was tottering.

But he still unhesitatingly charged toward Lianggenna.

He wants to perish together with this Monster!

He wants to die gloriously in battle here!

Like every Empire martyr!

"Dominic Adult, don't!"

An anxious Shout came from the mouth of a severely injured Bodyguard.

At Same Time two surviving Silent Sisters took the opportunity to rush to Dominic's side.

One left one right, they braced Dominic's arms.

Then without a word they lifted him, rapidly withdrawing backward.

Their Quest is to protect Dominic Adult's Safety at all costs.

"Let go of me! Let go of me!"

Dominic madly struggled.

"Let me go kill that Monster!"

"I don't want your protection!"

"Let go of me!!!"

But he was already exhausted long ago, how could he possibly match rigorously trained Silent Sisters.

No matter how he struggled, he could not break free of their restraint.

Could only watch helplessly as himself grew farther and farther from Lianggenna.

Just as he was continuously distancing from Lianggenna.

His peripheral vision caught a familiar figure.

Ralph.

That Black Ship Lady who was always taciturn, hard and cold like Brevis Frozen Soil.

She didn't know when she had already stood up from the Medic's embrace.

Her complexion was still pale, wounds on her body still constantly bleeding.

The damage High Voltage Current caused to her body had still far from Restored.

She could even barely walk without staggering.

But she did not retreat along with them.

Instead, she walked against the flow of people, heading straight toward Lianggenna, step by step.

Her footsteps were steady and composed.

Every step proved that she had already steeled herself to fulfill her sacred duty.

When she passed by Dominic's side.

Ralph turned her head slightly.

She glanced at Dominic out of the corner of her eye.

Even though she wore a black mask covering most of her face.

Dominic seemed to see, at the corner of her mouth, a faint, resigned smile.

It was the smile of someone who had set down every burden, ready to embrace death.

"No!!! Ralph, don't!"

Dominic let out a cry of despair.

He struggled desperately, trying to rush over and grab Ralph.

But two Silent Sisters held him fast, not letting him move an inch.

He could only watch helplessly as Ralph's back grew farther and farther away.

This was not the ending he wanted!

He didn't want everyone to die for him!

He didn't want to survive by clinging to life, alone bearing everyone's sacrifice!
