Ember Gun

  Chapter 268 Funeral

This is a very strange feeling, Lorenzo is also difficult to describe, but he can really feel the sudden anger in his heart, this is not aimed at Anthony or others, but a certain feeling of being teased , As if something has been forgotten, but because I can't remember it anyway, I feel powerless.

  "You said, I am...Medanzo?"

  Lorenzo looked at Anthony, he clenched his fists, his eyes swept across the faces, and then the angry heart suddenly cooled.

  Arthur Merlin...Everyone, they all have similar eyes with Anthony, a little bit of pity and sorrow, it seems that Lorenzo is really a poor guy who has been deceiving himself and living.

   "Medanzo is dead, dead in the night of the Holy Promenade, I am Lorenzo Holmes, the hunting squad number 042!"

  Lorenzo wanted to shout with all his strength, but when the words reached his lips, he seemed so weak.

  All this comes so quickly, it doesn’t give people any time to prepare.

   "Why do you continue to cheat? Hiding the truth will only make your situation worse, Mr. Holmes."

  Anthony is like a judge, examining this confused lamb little by little.

"Your true identity is 047, the demon hunter named Medanzo, you won the false Holy Grail in the night of the Holy Advent, and escaped from the Holy Gospel Papal kingdom. After arriving in Old Dunling, Yi Luo Continue to act in the name of Renzo Holmes."

   "No! I am 042."

   is very rare. For some reason, Lorenzo has rarely lost his sanity on the issue of this identity. He did not perform deception and cunningly deal with Anthony as before.

  He is like a morbid fanatic, Lorenzo seems to emphasize his identity, stubborn, as if language is magical, under this mechanical repetition, everything will come true.

   "It's a pity that your deception ends here, Mr. Holmes."

  Anthony continued speaking, he had the chance to win.

   "042 does not exist, he is just a way you use to deceive others... This is very subtle. Under your story, you successfully disguised your death and became active as 042."

Lorenzo stared at Anthony fiercely, even in the face of the tide of monsters, the almost incomprehensible Master Lawrence, and even said that the desperate night of the Holy Advent, he had not been afraid of all this, but This time Lorenzo also couldn't understand why this happened.

  Something seems to be coming out. From his stomach, fragile heart, brain, there are countless hands stretched out in those places that cannot be seen. They are vying to get rid of the shackles under this poor body.

  In those memories that are unwilling to look back, deliberately forgotten.

   "042...doesn't exist?"

  Lorenzo...or 042, he looked at Anthony blankly with incomprehension and doubt, as well as those unknown fears.

   "Literally, 042 does not exist."

  Anthony directly denies the existence of 042, and Lorenzo considers himself to exist.

"In fact, this conversation has been planned for a long time. After all, you have also experienced the night of the Holy Prophet. You are in a false Holy Grail. You are very dangerous, that kind of unknown danger, so in order to be able to convince you thoroughly, or make you calm Talking with us, we have done a lot of preparation."

  Another document was taken out. Lorenzo had long been their goal. They had prepared for the meeting today for too long.

"This is the list of the Demon Hunters. According to the records on the list and the mission records of the Demon Hunters... these records do not have the number 042... Precisely speaking, the Demon Hunters did not use this number at all. The devil does not exist at all."

  The document slid along the smooth table top, and the paper was a bit yellowish. This is a record before the night of the Holy Prophet, and there is no possibility of falsification.

   "You said I...do not exist?"

   Lorenzo said in disbelief.

   "You are 047, named Medanzo." He replied indifferently.

   "This is impossible...impossible! I am 042...I...I..."

  Lorenzo looked at the document in front of him. He wanted to find something that could prove his identity, but no, nothing.

Arthur remained silent, and saw Lorenzo raised his head in a panic. This was the first time Arthur saw Lorenzo like this, like a trapped beast in a cage, slamming against a solid iron wall. But it didn't work.

   "I... Horror Valley, me and 016 and 011..."

  Like grabbing a straw, Lorenzo's voice trembled a little.

   "You mean Operation Uncanny Valley? On the second page, the participant is you, 047, 011, 016, and there is nothing 042."

Anthony made all the preparations. Lorenzo turned to the second page directly when he heard it. It was a familiar handwriting. Although it has been so long, he can still recognize his own handwriting. It is his own handwriting. The task report written, but the participant was replaced from 042 to 047.

  No...No, I really exist, 042 does exist, I am the best proof.

  Lorenzo frantically searched for the file in front of him, but there was nothing. No matter how the characters were rearranged, he could not find the point that could prove him.

  "Will you continue to play stupid? Mr. Holmes, your lie has been exposed."

  Anthony continued to persecute.

   "No! This is fake, I am 042! Lorenzo Holmes! Medanzo is dead! I have witnessed his death with my own eyes!"

  Lorenzo finally couldn't help it, and roared angrily, a dazzling dim light appeared in his eyes, this sign made everyone present nervous.

This is no ordinary trapped beast in front of him. He is Lorenzo Holmes, the demon hunter who survived the night of the Holy Prophet, and bears the weird pseudo-Holy Grail. Once Lorenzo chooses the most Bad option, maybe it will be covered by war in the next second.

   "Calm down, Lorenzo."

   Arthur said timely.

   "What are you going to do next? Grab me? Then have a good dissection?"

  Lorenzo’s eyes were full of distrust.

  Perhaps because of his identity as a fan. When he was touched on this point, Lorenzo completely lost his former calmness.

   "We just want to confirm whether the false Holy Grail is really on you."

   Arthur shook his voice, and then his tone softened again, explaining his own position.

   "Lorenzo, the premise of cooperation is trust. Our cleansing agency does not care about your past. Even now you are still a member of the cleansing agency. The gospel church declares war on you and declares war on us."

  With Arthur's comfort, Lorenzo took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then a sharp pain came in his mind, as if someone was breaking his head abruptly.

"But you concealed the false Holy Grail. According to Anthony, it was an evil product of the Holy Night of Advent. The participants basically died that night. Even now, the Gospel Church does not know the power of that thing... It is dangerous."

   "Then what do you want to do?" Lorenzo asked.

   "Cooperate with us and contain this potential danger...or you."

  Arthur slowly raised his finger and pointed at Lorenzo.

   "No... wait a moment."

   Very strange, it was Anthony who interrupted at this time. He looked at Lorenzo and seemed to realize something, and then asked again.

   "Lorenzo Holmes, I want to ask you another question."

   Lorenzo’s face was reflected in those cold eyes, and he seemed to see everything.

   "Who do you think you are?"

   "No. 042."

  Lorenzo replied without hesitation.

   There was silence at first, and then Anthony sighed, his eyes with the pity before.

   "In other words, you are not deceiving us, are you?"

  This sentence was like a sharp sword, and it pierced Lorenzo's heart fiercely. It was obviously nothing, but he felt an unspeakable cold.

"What do you mean?"

  This sentence can express too much meaning, Anthony said slowly.

  "This is not a deception. You think you are 042 instead of 047. Do you think 047...that is, you are dead?"

  Anthony made a startling conclusion, and for a moment Lorenzo's mind went blank.

   "Lorenzo's perception of himself is wrong?"

   Merlin said suddenly.

"For some reason, Medanzo...047, he imagined himself as a non-existent demon hunter numbered 042, and after recognizing himself as 042, 042 is Lorenzo Mr. Holmes, you think that you are another person, another person who died on the night of Holy Prophet."

   "No...what are you talking about? I am 042! I am here alive! I am the best proof of myself!"

   Lorenzo retorted unacceptably.

"But you are 047! Look at these documents. In order to prepare for this conversation, we brought all the information about you, from joining the gospel church when you were young to the eruption of Holy Night. All of the information can piece together a complete life!

  Number 047 The Life of a Demon Hunter! "

   Anthony scolded.

"According to your report, 042 and 047 are friends, and 042 is also the Medanzo Demon Hunter... But in fact, there is no mention of the existence of 042 in these materials, and our records have never The number 042 has never been activated."

   "Then you mean I'm crazy?"

  Lorenzo stood up angrily, as if fighting a trapped beast.

   "I imagined myself as another person! A person who doesn't exist!"

   "Isn't it? 047."

  Anthony continued.

   "In fact, all of this is very good proof. Looking at those photos, I am thinking about everything about the night of Holy Prophet."

On the scattered files, there are pictures after another. The owners in the pictures are all the same person. The only difference is that they were taken at different ages. They were put together to build a growing boy, and now He is questioning everything.

   "If you think you are 042, then what were you doing on the night of the Holy Promenade? 042!"

Anthony asked aloft that it was a nightmare night, a night Lorenzo would never forget, in that night his life was completely reversed, he killed Medanzo himself and took over the taboo. False Holy Grail.

   "The Silent Temple was out of control. Medanzo guarded the gates of heaven and intercepted the demons who tried to break through the defenses, and I was..."

  The words Lorenzo recalled suddenly stopped.

"I……"

  It seems that an invisible big hand is holding his heart. All the anger and incomprehension just now dissipates at this moment, and some is just an inexplicable fear.

  Fear of own existence, this long life, self-righteous anger, everything... all this is just the imagination of a madman.

   "Say, 042."

  Anthony’s tone deliberately increased 042’s name and continued to force Lorenzo.

   "I was..."

Lorenzo slowly raised his hand and concealed half of his face forcefully. The memories he had been unwilling to face, the memories he had forgotten and lost, were cruelly torn apart at this moment, unreservedly revealed. .

   "I was in the Seven Hills at the time to solve the other demons, and finally merged with Medanzo who smashed out of the Silent Temple..."

"But the Medanzo demon hunters were all guarding outside the Cathedral of San Nalo at the time. After the eruption of the Holy Promenade, they all guarded the gates of heaven with Medanzo, blocking those demons, and why would you be alone? Leaving the team?"

  Anthony repeats all that happened, and Lorenzo’s words are fragmented in front of the true story.

   "Personality split? Due to the pseudo-Holy Grail...or something else, the personality of 047 split into a personality named 042, and 042 killed 047."

   Percival said suddenly, her voice was always so brisk, and it seemed so abrupt in this serious meeting.

   "Percival!"

   Gawain said solemnly, trying to keep Percival quiet.

  "It's not impossible. Due to erosion, there are many cases in Montenegro Hospital..."

  Percival wanted to continue to say something, but looking at Gawain's solemn gaze, he could only go on silently.

   But her proposal does have such a possibility. From this conversation, it can be seen that Lorenzo didn't seem to want to deceive everyone, but he really had a cognitive error about his identity.

  "Answer my question, 042, why is this?"

   Anthony continued to chase, and then raised the question again without waiting for Lorenzo to answer him.

   "Then you said you killed Medanzo, but why did you use his silver-binding bolt on your body?"

  Suddenly everything was quiet, Lorenzo looked at Anthony blankly, his eyes shifting stiffly.

   "You said... the bolt of silver binding..."

"As a demon hunter, you should be aware of the role of the silver bolt. It is not only a limitation of the power of your demon hunters, but through the Temple of Silence, when you break through the critical value, we can use it to determine your position. "

  Speaking of this, Anthony's vision was out of sight to observe Arthur's reaction.

   "But a few days ago, the Silent Temple detected the reaction of 047 Silver Bolt, located in the north of Old Dunling... If you killed 047 with your own hands, what happened to this reaction report?"

  Without giving Lorenzo any room to counterattack, Anthony threw the final punch.

   "You should be aware that the silver binding bolt cannot be removed."

  Fr. finished the final mass, and under the watchful eyes of the family members, the last handful of mud was covered on the 042 coffin.

  047 seems to have lost his language ability, standing in despair, the beautiful dream burst, showing the cruel reality.

   "Medanzo, you have been eroded by the false Holy Grail."

  Anthony looked at the demon hunter who had killed his entire life with pity.

   "Fell into this long-lasting madness, so long that even this maddening nightmare has been regarded as normal by you."
