"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Blanco."
"I haven't introduced myself to you yet. That's not etiquette, is it?"
Murphy loosened her grip on the dagger handle.
Then he straightened up and bowed in front of Bronco's puzzled eyes.
"Hello, my name is Murphy, and I'm a vengeful evil spirit that belongs only to you."
Murphy drew his sword, and without hesitation or words, he thrust it directly into Bronco's chest.
Looking at those wide eyes, he slowly moved his head closer to Bronco's ear.
"I hope that even in hell, you will get the reward you deserve."
"Then go to hell, Mr. Blanco."
The sword was pulled out of Bronco's body.
Bronco was not dead yet. He was gasping for breath, and his throat was like a broken bellows, making a "huff-huff" sound.
Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, completely soaking the socks, but his eyes were still fixed on Murphy, as if asking why.
"It would be too easy for you to die like this."
Murphy looked at his terrified eyes expressionlessly and thrust the sword in again.
Bronco shouted, "Not dead yet."
Two hits, not dead, Bronco turned his head.
Three hits, not dead, Bronco————
……
Finally, thanks to Murphy's unremitting efforts, Bronco died.
His body was no longer in human form, and Murphy's body was covered in his blood.
The blood was absorbed by the black clothes, leaving dark spots.
The expressionless face and calm eyes looked like a red and black demon covered in blood.
To Murphy, who has become a strong man, Bronco is just an ordinary person.
So it was a massacre, no doubt about it.
Murphy didn't feel any burden in his heart because he was not a pushover.
When he was in the brave team in the past, he had killed people with the brave.
Not to mention, the person he just killed was a scumbag.
Murphy didn't know Bronco very well. He didn't know if Bronco was a good guy in hiding, nor did he know if he had repented in the past few years.
But none of this matters to Murphy. He is the murderer of his father, so he just wants to kill him, and that's enough.
Put down the butcher knife and become a Buddha instantly?
When will injustice be repaid?
Bullshit.
I just regret that he has no family and that I couldn't make his death more painful.
Murphy is not a bloodthirsty person. He doesn't want to kill innocent people, so he didn't attack Bronco's friends or his old lover.
Because they don't know what happened in the past and are on the innocent side.
Murphy wiped the sword clean, put it back into the scabbard, and walked to the window.
He turned his head again to look at the rotten meat called Bronco, then climbed out the window and left Wilfred Castle according to his original escape route.
Instead of going through the main gate, he climbed through the window of his hiding place in the city, just as he had left before.
After entering the hotel room, he took off all his clothes and the dagger and put them in the bag, then changed into his original clothes. Then he left the hotel and disposed of the bag.
After doing all this, he did not leave the city, but returned to the hotel and lay directly on the bed.
It wasn't that he didn't want to leave now, of course he wanted to leave now.
After all, the sooner you leave, the less likely you are to be discovered.
But if he leaves now, he will definitely be questioned by the guards at the city gate, which will definitely become very troublesome.
Chapter 74 Even if the apprentice is not good enough, there is still a place for him here
If Murphy rushed out of the city right now, he would not only be questioned for going out late at night, but also when Bronco's body was found, he, who left the city that night, would easily be suspected.
So instead of taking the risk of leaving now, it’s better to leave early tomorrow morning.
It's the same thing as leaving early tomorrow. I can just blend in with the crowd and leave the city.
Murphy made a decision while lying on the bed with his clothes on. He closed his eyes and prepared to rest, but his thoughts flying far away kept him awake for a long time.
The team of heroes no longer exists. Among the four people in the team, except Murphy and the hero, the lives of three of them have deviated from their original trajectory.
Ella missed the selection of the hero because she "overslept".
The hero, who failed to find a satisfactory candidate, left Lars early, resulting in Candice not meeting the hero in the maze, and there was no question of her being chosen by the hero.
For the same reason, Filia missed the hero who visited Wilfred Castle and is likely to have returned to the royal capital.
Except for the fourth person whose identity is still unknown, everyone's life trajectory has changed to varying degrees because of Murphy.
Even old Jed did not die at the hands of the dragon for saving Murphy, and the organization was not wiped out by Dickens.
Unconsciously, the world has changed so much because of Murphy, so much that Murphy himself feels it is unrealistic.
It’s as if everything that happened in the previous life was just a dream, and now is the right life after waking up from the dream.
“Maybe my current life is just a dream.”
Murphy smiled bitterly and slowly closed her eyes.
If this is a dream, it would be best if I never wake up again.
After all, I am generally quite satisfied with my life now.
-------------------------------------
"Is everything settled?"
"That man is just an ordinary person after all."
Murphy shrugged and nonchalantly responded to the first greeting from old Jed, whom she hadn't seen for almost two weeks.
His tone was very calm, without any excitement or other feelings. This made Old Jed somewhat surprised. He put down his pipe and opened his single eye to look at him. "You have avenged your great hatred, but why do you look so unhappy?"
Murphy thought about it carefully and found that it was indeed the case.
Ever since he dealt with Bronco, there seemed to be no special emotional changes. Until now, when he came back in the carriage prepared before, he didn't seem to feel any joy of revenge.
There was only this feeling, which couldn't really be called an emotion: "Ah, Bronco is dead, and revenge has been taken."
"Hmm~~ Never mind." Old Jed, who was sitting in the alley, picked up his pipe again, knocked the bottom of the pipe on the ground beside him, and then waved to Murphy: "Come over and have a drink, I have something to tell you."
Murphy nodded and walked over to sit next to Old Jed.
It seemed to have rained yesterday, and there was still some water on the ground. However, I don’t know how old Jed dealt with it. There was no water where he was sitting, and it was very dry.
After Murphy sat down, Old Jed handed him a bottle of wine.
This has become a routine activity. Every time he comes to Old Jed's place, he has to accompany him to drink and talk.
"This time's reward."
"what?"
"The reward for escorting that girl was not difficult, so I got the lion's share."
"..."
Murphy took the purse handed to him by Old Jed speechlessly. He didn't expect that he would actually get money this time.
Although it was a small amount, I did get the money.
Old Jed extended his hand holding the bottle and asked, "What are your plans next?"
"It seems that nothing has happened." Murphy clinked glasses with him, then thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you can look around. Maybe you can do something big out there."
"Staying here all the time, under your protection, will ultimately lead to nothing."
After hearing Murphy's answer, Old Jed let out a dry laugh: "The brat's wings are hard, he wants to fly away."
"Feel sorry."
Murphy knew that old Jed was training her to be his successor.
But...how to say it, he can't stay in this small place of Lars forever, he has to do something big.
By the way, go and satisfy your own little selfish desire.
The world is big, and he wants to go out and see the scenery that he has never seen in his previous life.
Old Jed fell silent, a rare occurrence. He drank his wine without saying a word.
After a long while, he put down the bottle and said, "There's nothing to apologize for. Sharon is here anyway, and I don't need you."
"but......"
At this point, Old Jed suddenly reached out and rubbed Murphy's head: "If one day you fail to accomplish the big thing you wanted to do, or you are bullied outside and don't want to continue."
"You can go back to Lars then."
"Don't worry, even if my apprentice is not a good person, I still have a place for him to stay here."
Murphy didn't know what emotions were surging in her heart. It seemed that she had thousands of words to say to Old Jed, but her throat moved for a long time but she couldn't say a word.
Finally, he could only bow his head and thank him in a humming voice: "Then... thank you first, Master."
"You're so hypocritical, you little brat, hahahaha."
Old Jed laughed and clapped Murphy's shoulder hard.
Then he raised the bottle again and started chatting with Murphy while drinking.
When the sun set and dusk came, the drunk old Jed let Murphy leave.
"Go away, kid. If you can't do something to leave your name behind, don't come back."
"...That's not what you just said."
"Hey, what do you care about me? By the way, don't forget what I just told you."
Looking at his master who was laughing like a naughty boy, Murphy stood up and replied helplessly, "Don't worry, old man. Besides, my first stop is the capital anyway."
"Hey, old man?" Old Jed opened his one eye and looked at Murphy, with a hint of barely perceptible happiness in his eyes. Maybe he really liked this kind of address that brought them closer.
But he didn't say anything, just muttered "Forget it this time", and then he waved his hand at Murphy: "As long as you haven't forgotten that thing, get out of here."
"Well, see you the day after tomorrow, Master."
Murphy nodded and turned to leave the alley.
Murphy actually didn't know what exactly Old Jed was talking about.
He only knew that their destination was the royal capital, and that they were going there to watch a good show.
As for more specific things, such as what the good show he was watching was and how that good show was related to himself, Old Jed didn't say anything.
But I think it might be related to the incident with the Reinhardt family.
Chapter 75 Dragon Horn Sword
"Come to think of it... I wonder if not meeting the hero will have any effect on her."
Under the influence of alcohol, Murphy's somewhat confused brain began to unconsciously think of Filia.
The future has been changed by Murphy, and the endings of many people are different from what they originally were.
So Murphy doesn't know where Filia's future will go.
He knew about the incident; Filia told him herself.
In the near future, Count Patrick, the current head of the Reinhard family, will be arrested by Leyden XIII on charges of attempted treason without any warning.
When the kingdom's guards went to the mansion where Patrick lived, what was waiting for them was not the earl who was scared to tears, but a group of well-trained elite private soldiers.
