Undead Requiem

Chapter 8: Lovers

"Dear Eugene, when summer comes, let's open a bakery and adopt Whitman." In the bridge hole late at night, lying in the arms of his lover wrapped in a quilt, Eugene whispered.

"Of course." Eugene kissed his lover's hair.

This summer, they have saved enough money to buy a shop in London by then.The second floor can be used as a living home, and the storefront along the way can be used as a bakery.

Although Whitman has grown to 15 years old after Christmas this year, in their eyes, he is just a half-grown child.Moreover, Eugene liked him and regarded him as family.

Holding his lover firmly in his arms, Eugene whispered, "Let's give him a surprise in summer."

He believed that Whitman would not refuse to live with them.He knew that this young boy liked Eugene.

Eugene gave a soft "hmm" before falling asleep in peace.

The work of catching mice does not happen every day.But as a window knocker, you must knock on the window for the owner on time.Walt's entanglement confuses Whitman.He thought, if he ignored the other party.After a period of time, the other party will find that he is a boring person, and at that time, they will naturally leave his side.

Today, they accept a job as a rat catcher in a London pub.The rats in this tavern, not giant rats.But they are a large group.If you can't kill this group of dirty guys, the wine barrels in the tavern will be bitten through and the food will be eaten after a long time.

You know, in the cold winter, thousands of warm households have become the habitat of mice.

Following Eugene and Eugenie to catch rats several times, Whitman has become very proficient in catching rats.

After getting paid, Eugene bought him a warm scarf.

Compared with the flamboyant Eugene, Eugene is really a gentle person-Whitman thought.

Over time, Eugene would talk about their past unconsciously.

It turned out that they were lovers from Paris.Moreover, Eugene was a nobleman of a certain family in Paris.And Eugenie was his family's servant.Now that they were down in London as rat-catchers, Whitman guessed they must have escaped.

In fact, he guessed right.

When Eugene was young, he didn't understand love.He often willfully bullies the family's young servant Eugene, in order to attract the attention of the other party.But seeing him talking with other maids, he felt unhappy inside.Later, the young governess reassured him.

It turned out that he liked Eugene, that's why he wanted to attract the other's attention, and he was jealous when he saw him joking with other maids.

Eugene, who just understood what "love" is, is as sensitive as a small animal.He thinks he's an idiot for beating around the bush and trying to figure out how to be nice to the other person, but keeps screwing up.

The gentle Eugene always cleaned up the mess for him, no matter how the young master made things difficult for him, he would never get angry at all.

Until, in the rose garden, Eugene kissed him and blushed with love.After the shock, Eugene was frightened and uneasy.If the master knew the young master's feelings for him, he would not only lose his job, but also be kicked out.Seriously, he will be sent to a madhouse, and then he will be charged with seducing his master.

Therefore, Eugene rejected Eugene.

The arrogant Eugene does not accept rejection.And using his identity as the master, he can do whatever he wants with Eugenie.

After a long time, Eugene found that he also fell into Eugene's passionate love.

Three years later, they had a physical relationship.

The two were too gluey to attract the butler's attention.The butler discovered the affair between the two and told Eugene's father about it.The father who heard the news was very angry.So, he locked Eugene in the basement, insulted him as a dirty male prostitute who seduced men, and swore that he would be punished most severely.

Eugene trembled with fear, but bravely expressed his love for the young master.

This made Eugene's father even more angry.

Eugene was forced to separate from Eugene, one was locked in the basement, and the other was locked in a room.Every day, his mother whispered bad things about Eugene in his ears and told him that a banquet would be held for him.At that time, the ladies and ladies in Paris will come here to dance with him.

Trapped in the room, arranged by his father and mother, Eugene will also suffer inhumane injuries.Eugene was devastated.When he decided to take the risk and climb out of the window to rescue Eugene.His governess came into the room and told him that the banquet held in his honor was an opportunity for him and Eugene to escape from here.

However, can the noble young master who has never suffered any hardship really endure the life of being displaced and starving?

Eugene said firmly, yes.As long as he can be with Eugene, even hell, he can bear it.

Getting the answer from him, the tutor decided to help them.

On the day of the banquet, gentlemen and ladies from various nobles welcomed in the magnificent manor.On that day, Eugene was as well behaved as a different person, and told his father that he was only temporarily deceived by Eugene, and that he had already seen through the true face of that lowly servant.His father was very pleased with his awakening.

After the banquet started, Eugene "followed" a lady, and after a dance, he invited the lady to a rose garden for a tryst.In the Rose Garden, he knocked the lady unconscious and went to the dungeon to rescue Eugene.

Knowing that Eugene was going to escape here with him, Eugene persuaded him to stay.But Eugene threatened his life, so Eugene had to follow him into the carriage prepared for them by the tutor.

Driving in a carriage, Eugene fled Paris with his lover.They wandered all the way and set foot on British soil.Along the way, they eluded men sent by their father and ran out of money.Eugene, who had never suffered, endured the suffering of inferior people.But he knew that Eugene, who took care of him all the way, was even harder.

Being arrogant, he doesn't want to look at other people's faces and work.Eugene, on the other hand, smiled and endured the insulting work of others.Eugene saw all of this.

One night, I looked at the injured hands of my lover.

He weeps and weeps.

It was he who made Eugene suffer all kinds of hardships with him, which also made him completely see that he was no longer a noble young master.Since then, no matter what coolie work, he has worked hard to share it with his lover.

After coming to London, my lover said that he wanted to open a bakery.So they work together.Three years later, they finally managed to save enough money.

This summer, they can finally achieve their wish.

"Eugene's bread is delicious, you should try it," said Eugene proudly.Not only the bread, but also the black tea brewed by Eugene, the snacks and the steak are all very delicious.However, after they fled, he never tasted the bread made by Eugene.

Whitman looked expectant: "Of course, I want to eat Mr. Eugene's bread."

Whitman couldn't help looking forward to this summer.

Following Eugene and Eugene to hunt mice for a winter, when the summer was approaching, they were hired by a family in the North District.They passed Westminster Abbey on their way to the North End.This holy church, people come and go from time to time.

Did Whitman believe in the existence of God?

maybe.

Because, in this world, there are gods of death and demons.Therefore, God should exist.

They continued walking, came to the bustling area of ​​the North District, and entered a big house.The owner of this house is the vicar of Westminster Abbey.At home, there is a huge library.Inside, there are piles of books.He took out a book that had been eaten by mice and said, "Drive them out for me."

Eugene said, "Yes, sir."

So, the three began to prepare for the mouse hunt.

"Really bad weather."

Standing above London, Walter looked up at the sky.

Today, it will snow.

Spring is coming and this might be the last snow.

He took out the book of the dead from his pocket and opened it, and the names of three people floated out along with the time and place of their death.Moreover, he knew the two of them during the term.

"It sucks."

Walter sighed again.

Mr. Pastor's study is very dim.When Whitman was looking for the mouse hole, he felt an ominous strangeness.I saw a mouse hole in the corner of the study.He lay on his stomach, checking for an abandoned mouse hole, when he touched a book on the shelf.The book doesn't fall, it pushes backwards.Then, the bookshelf suddenly moved.

The bookshelf is open.

Behind, is a long corridor.

What's in here?

He stood up and couldn't help but walked in.

At the end of the corridor is a room with candles.Whitman saw that there was a magic circle drawn with blood in the middle of the room, and at the top of the magic circle, there was a mummy hanging from the top.

This is... this is...

Whitman's eyes widened in horror.

He turned and ran out.

Mr. Eugene and Mr. Eugene must, must leave here!

When he walked back to the study through the corridor, he felt a pain in the back of his head and passed out.

Something took the opportunity to flap its wings and fly in.

When Whitman awoke with a splitting headache, he found himself bound.Moreover, the people who fell beside him were Eugene and Eugene who were unconscious.

Seeing him wake up, the pastor shook his head and said, "Son, you shouldn't have broken in here."

Whitman said tremblingly: "Mr. Pastor, please let us go. We are innocent. After leaving here, we will never tell anyone what happened today."

The pastor shook his head cruelly: "No, child. No one who breaks into this place can leave. Moreover, my calling requires life and blood."

At this moment, Eugene and Eugene woke up.

They overheard Whitman's conversation with the priest.

Eugene moved his body and protected Eugene behind his back: "Damn bastard, what are you trying to do?"

Seeing his actions, the pastor stepped forward.He reached out and wanted to touch Eugene, but Eugene sternly reprimanded him: "Don't touch him!"

The pastor suddenly realized, and he nodded with satisfaction: "It turns out that you are lovers. This is very good. With the soul and blood of the powerful bond, you may be able to successfully summon the powerful - undead."

Eugene said tremblingly: "You are crazy! God will not forgive you!"

The pastor laughed wildly: "Hahahaha, God can't save anyone. And once I can summon a powerful undead, I will become even stronger."

Whitman saw madness in the pastor's eyes.

The pastor forcibly dragged Eugene out from behind Eugene and put him in the middle of the magic circle. He took out a knife and cut Eugene's wrist.The blood flowed out and slowly flowed into the array of the magic circle.

The formation chart emitted a red light.

Eugene rolled over frantically, trying to rescue Eugene from it.But he was bounced off.

Eugene looked at Eugene, deep in his eyes, full of affectionate love and reluctance.

Whitman roared: "Let Mr. Eugene! Let Mr. Eugene!"

Why, why should M. Eugene be subjected to such ordeals?Whitman's spirit began to become chaotic, and something wanted to break out of his body.

Seeing the red light getting stronger and stronger, the priest opened his hands and began to chant spells.The blood on Eugene's body flowed faster and faster.

Slowly, slowly, his eyes became more and more blurred.

"Eugene, I love you," he said with a smile.Then, slowly, the anger disappeared.

Eugene broke down and forced his way into the magic circle.In the magic circle, he was swallowed by the red light, and his mouth let out a painful howl like a beast.

In the magic circle, Eugene, who was enduring the terrible magic, saw Eugene's soul.

Yes, he saw Eugene's soul.Not only that, but he also saw an ugly demon that had been lurking inside, and took the opportunity to eat Eugene's soul.

The soul that was supposed to be sacrificed to the undead was eaten by the sudden demon.The pastor was furious, so he attacked Eugene in the magic circle.

However, Whitman, who was on the verge of a nervous breakdown, suddenly yelled "Ah——".Because of Eugene's death and soul being eaten, and Eugene who was tortured by dark magic, Whitman's powerful spiritual pressure went out of control.

The rope tied to his body broke.

The cross on the neck couldn't withstand the powerful spiritual pressure, and it split and fell.

The death sickle broke through the body and flew out.

He grabbed the huge death scythe and cut the demon who had eaten Eugene's soul in half, then aimed the scythe at the stunned priest.

The pastor knelt and trembled and begged, "I beg you to be merciful and let me go."

But Whitman, who had a nervous breakdown, no longer heard his voice.He beheaded the priest with the scythe, and then destroyed the sanctuary and the mansion.

"Whitman!"

Eugene yelled with his last breath as Whitman flew out of the house.

Whitman returned rationally, the sickle in his hand fell, and fell to the ground.

Walter went to the North to harvest the souls of Eugene, Eugene and the pastor.When he approached the pastor's house, the powerful spiritual pressure that suddenly vibrated inside forced him to take a step back.

Immediately afterwards, the vicarage collapsed.

What happened?

Walter flew toward the collapsed center of the house.

The magic circle had been destroyed, and Eugene, who was lying in the center of the magic circle, had no breath.And Eugene, who was covered in blood, had been untied by Whitman, and he weakly comforted Whitman who kept crying.

"Don't cry, Whitman."

Bean-sized tears fell from Whitman's eyes, and his cry was full of pain: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." them?

Reaching out to stroke Whitman's head, Eugene smiled and said, "Whitman, I'm sorry."

I'm sorry, I promised you summer, and let you taste the bread made by Eugene.

I'm sorry, Eugene and I agreed to adopt you together.

But this sound made Whitman cry even harder.

"Whitman, please, send me to Eugene."

"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Mr.

"Honey, Eugene is everything to me. I can't bear the world without him. Please, Whitman, send me to him." I was afraid he was alone.

Whitman thumped the ground in pain.

Picking up the death scythe on the ground, Whitman swung the scythe at Eugene who was smiling at him.

Snowing.

When Walt rushed to the center of the collapsed house, he saw Whitman weeping over the bodies of Eugene and Eugene.Near them, there is a priest who was killed, and a demon who was cut in half.

Judging from the wound, the thing that killed the demon was the sickle of death.

As for today, all the souls he wanted to harvest disappeared.

Looking at the magic array on the ground that summoned the undead, Walt guessed that they had been persecuted.And the one who persecuted them was the priest in the skin of a priest.

But, whose powerful spiritual pressure just now belonged to?

Here, only Whitman is alive.Could it be the Grim Reaper who killed the demon?

Snowflakes from the sky fell on the sad and crying boy. Walter wanted to ask the boy, but he didn't know how to ask.There is a strong bond between the boy and the two rat catchers.Today, watching the other party die in front of one's own eyes is undoubtedly sad and unbearable.

Walter stood silently behind the boy, watching his back crying on the two corpses.

Until, the boy passed out from crying.

"Monsieur Eugene... Monsieur Eugene..."

In the dream, Eugene teased him and gently adjusted Eugenie's scarf.

"When the bakery is opened later, Whitman will come to taste it."

By the way, he made an appointment with them to taste the delicious bread made by Eugene in summer.Speaking of which, Mr. Eugene also gave him a warm scarf.

But...but...they're all dead...

The boy who fell ill on the bed was hot all over, he was talking, crying, happy and sad.

Two days have passed since that day.Whitman fell ill and never got sober.He thought, he couldn't accept the fact that those two people left.

What a poor man.

Doctors said he had to wake up on his own.What should I do if I have been indulging in sadness?Sitting on the edge of the bed, Walt was reading with a book, and on the bed, the sick Whitman was talking raving.

Outside the window, there is a rare sunshine.

After that snowfall, spring came.the weather is nice today.The fog that hung over London was blown away by the wind.Clean blue sky, deep and empty.

When Whitman woke up, he found himself lying on a clean and soft bed.And there is a book on the table next to the bed.He looked out the window and saw the evening sun.The sun turned London orange.

Now, what time is it?
