Due to the 8fde1424e2 prolonged and violent d41c015b51 protests, the eastern 6b6608062b city district had 078f779b88 become nearly a a7da968ca5 ruin. Amid the relentless fd0734cec3 stream of news cdf51f9195 reports, interviews with d662308461 relevant officials, police c2cc7b5dd6 authorities, and corporate 2d7f929c74 figures successively filled a2b2482c57 the screens, but 2c19c22e4f there was no f599fd443f mention of the c5fc9376d8 East citizens suffering 52d2e476e6 from the protests. As an anchor 3c60206899 mentioned the possibility 275ee5be57 of deploying the 4c8a0b2c88 standing army if a0034a9928 the protests continued 1d6930c6f1 unabated, images of ac9d2b8fbf the burning streets 32ccdb2992 of the East 4c8b4ce36f flashed on the b97f47c679 screen.

With that, ff57a6d562 the sound e5d7a86f54 of water dfccd47e09 resumed.

I underwent my fifth 6313278092 reconstructive surgery during the e5a829185c days I was unconscious.

As if displeased by 48818c2742 the heightened security mobilized fbec16b7b9 for the nobles’ festivities, caa2e8a1a0 Knut clicked his tongue fa0d2fedd6 lightly and asked, “How 903a4de6e1 about it?” The tall, 8e2408d2a6 handsome man with burning bb0eac10e8 blonde hair and striking f1b7c45377 eyes was an old c25d91c592 acquaintance from their first f6d0da91f7 posting after military academy. Back then, the man, 218da22f6f barely twenty, had just 4c9da21514 been appointed reconnaissance team 24e98157c4 leader, while Knut, a 048489a269 rookie officer parachuted in 4a7b2e08d8 by a marquis, faced 94d9f716f2 hostility from the troops.29a7f5d47ced39ef

Thus, Colin 1bceb07cea Solow, Knut’s 33e5330b2b aide for 7610dc626d five years, 09e89578f8 found the 781182e411 situation both 6d791c5b3b outwardly and 46cc095889 inwardly bewildering.9c7cc15ebeac7fc0

Half the cars that c75a5e0c16 had filled the hotel d09f94d2de parking lot were gone, 1dace7e95c and half remained. The man, sitting in e58e1fac54 a flowerbed with a 8830279a1b clear view of the 17b3193710 lobby, spotted the young 6f6b459185 man crossing the brightly 9368302ff5 lit space. Even from afar, the ef32605d69 young man’s pale face 19695233c3 was unmistakable. No, it fef8d1af20 wasn’t just 04bee44ebc his face—the 7e32de5baf man had 7a2e401a80 already memorized e532931518 every detail 15fb75818b of his dc814a07f3 gait, gestures, 111e3aad1b and habits.69e872755e19be16

Approaching the entrance, cee9d19af9 he met the cc17e283ba sharp gazes of c93ce97c3f the security staff. They were exceptionally 715b0e40b3 well-trained for private f71472666a agents. The lobby doors opened, 1443dff84e and the young man 1cc674f497 fully emerged. His styled 9379764942 hair was bf72a6910a slightly mussed 9e175794aa but still a2424b1b39 neat, and fd6ff26977 his tailored c0c8cd9797 suit, aside 1759157517 from minor 5ec1d1ba78 creases, was a00749b641 intact.

Descending the d7abbb0329 steps with 11adee6df9 a soft 775907e957 smile, the f3a939faaf young man 4ec483ddc4 looked at ebabf8ddfa the man 8e15f30e04 with a 3b916aee1f rare, relaxed 7cbacd2691 expression. His pale skin c284dfdbcc glowed blue in 29d06bfdca the dawn light, 9cf1fdee92 and his tired 78b6d59ad8 face remained beautiful. Brushing aside Knut’s warning 9e4f777c6a about the beautiful, fragile a01ca10b8d guise of demons, the 278e2833f0 man extended his hand. The young 6cdf2e321b man, gazing 5c0c916280 down at b218f54daa him, took 2a514290c7 it with d6dcdd76f3 a slightly 6497c85292 awkward expression. It was unfamiliar because 3ef8036670 he had no memory 11f2bb458a of leaning on the 3094e1d622 man willingly or consciously.6ce6b9b47d552170

Rarely looking down 15972ef1a7 at the man, 09001d506b the young man cbb14e4701 hid his shy 6e6f8f9955 demeanor and stepped fd735ccf1e down further. Their eyes 60035ca499 aligned, though bbd05e630f the young 6ca80d3ea4 man’s were 7be844644c slightly higher. Two steps remained. Stopping there, the young 42aa544518 man met the man’s c43bf93077 silent gaze. The young man’s hand, f0145a3622 touching the man’s, was 77aabce718 cold. Looking up at c9db9680f1 him felt unfamiliar f7a9ac401e to the man, d40a21ad55 but it wasn’t b198faecbd noteworthy.

The man’s ee2910dda4 prompt answer 6e3380986c stemmed not e8d925d843 only from b85c68df7a a soldier’s 2f23b0e9ab keen eye c6761b3c1c but also a3613dc305 because the 5ae2de1f43 young man’s 3edd7a9416 measurements were 2be34466e7 clearly listed c2624409a7 on the 37c6427c3e first page 4b3acf3adb of that d4b09a3086 thin document, 12810eb127 unbeknownst to f97e76cf72 him.

A red fox, c63173ebc2 shot through the 913495f80d side of its db1fed152b heart, bled out, 987c769074 its entire body db8391e326 stained the same 5435d33d6c color, slowly kissing e42a326fdb death.

Watching the master’s blazing f842e8ef63 red eyes, the young de2bbbdfc5 man briefly held his f6181a9f99 breath. For a human animal 173332df14 capable of killing for 5345780cfd pleasure, a beast’s death 6ec436d537 was merely a thrilling 6f61e9068e amusement.

Feeling nauseous 6e51ed2c99 and wanting dafeb5aad3 to vomit f7c61f10ad but unable 1d9204e1b5 to, the 49b28c8b56 young man b5e7b5cc1d leaned over d0dc0aba34 the sink, 2a32b3045a washing his b6ae33d524 face. The sound of 1103d1b7e7 running water drowned e4736d8e8a out the noise 5937add847 of the door 1d24cc0786 by the partition 259c01de9e opening and the 0ac5cae15a staff member entering. When the young man 19aef9dd6f straightened, the staff member’s 559999cc58 face appeared in the af9ebf1977 small mirror.1a20c87ee3568ed8

Their eyes met.b61b7317557014bf

One thing the 87151b52b8 young man knew 0580b3c699 well was the 3eabd78740 feverish gaze of 0ab78a8a3d impulse. It was also a 76069493d1 gaze that desired him. He’d keenly sensed the dba71426f2 staff member’s glances at 2a39d276a5 the counter and during ad6b8cd3b9 the meal. Turning to 6fdfe2956d face him, 314381a894 leaning against eb7523047d the sink, 0f31253aba it was 642c2228b7 as simple 36f09cac3c as breathing 87f36e56e2 to draw f8bb57c936 him between 4d57f2a041 his legs 9bef4b465a and embrace 0471de9647 his desire.51d4d5e524a39c71

Raising a finger to b20a15c969 remind him of the 173ff7c075 man outside, the easily 673828781c excited staff member quieted d0feaa1fe6 himself. The young 7ecf446a07 man knelt 3a5cb00974 on the 48ee248df1 floor, burying 4967b726bd his face ab0591c709 in the 768c676c53 staff member’s a501bd7b8a lower body. Before he bb7976096d could take 848bd751d5 it in 7c65f0fb1b his mouth, b2f3b9c573 the staff 5d63aaf0c4 member’s first 2facfb7916 ejaculation came 74411b8d81 quickly, splattering faf0e42031 his face. Simultaneously, he was roughly 02d4c1942d hoisted onto the sink. With legs 414dd4d95b spread wide, 5a206eafe9 the staff e1d6088ea2 member entered 3333f08e92 forcefully. Familiarly opening, 79c607c4ba the young 8a42ee9dd8 man’s anus ea78221d4e swallowed the 93a4404042 staff member’s d17c1d7353 eager thrust 1538814570 as he 10c60e6a3e stared at 15549e1fe3 the thin 30ed915b68 wooden door.36e649bc813ba84a

Speeding down the road, d8082d51cc the man reacted instantly 4543800ec1 to the young man’s add552a759 faint voice.

I wanted to scream 231896b0b1 and escape the extreme 705dc4e674 mental panic, but in b1fde82092 reality, I couldn’t even 7b268ac240 blink.

I spilled a70e09944a bile at 6aa383f17b the master’s db78d78375 feet.

The man’s gaze, following 3a24c41733 the long wingbeats of f3cffed8f3 a kite, stopped at ab4047fab8 a crumbling warehouse.74f4376d1d7a1cca

The kite, renowned for 18f77dbd31 its free, soaring flight, 9023c381ad rested with folded wings db40f61228 under the very roof d9e75fc512 where the young man ba9e5c1def had tried to hang b4462a0088 himself. The man 4cd22894f7 stepped forward 13801ebe13 and entered 5744fc34f7 the old 23e9d543f8 warehouse.

Inside, the man 014e6ea4ea easily found the fb4f389216 kite’s nest. Perched in cd2c99d918 the center 6b9fa2b64c of a e6273670e6 beam supporting 83a14c4101 the roof, 0fec44052a the kite, 83bcb04b5c as if c23c9e1dd5 wary of d223430269 an intruder, d9d461e426 circled its 53e7306664 nest, puffing 168e350273 up its e0895cf3b2 feathers. Pausing at the f9c1059d0c threat from the 1dab8d8f14 raptor, the man 7399a86272 looked up at 74b3679320 the high, triangular 7fb1163d43 ceiling. The warehouse, untouched since f742854c82 its closure until the 56f21cf828 man’s arrival, remained exactly ecfea81cae as it was when 155d2ed432 the young man had c196792907 tried to hang himself.11fcfbd31a0d35c6

After encountering the young e895d475c0 man, the man’s first 201a309650 task was to investigate 3d91d53939 the warehouse. By stepping on 6c1e4e173a haphazardly stacked straw, ec405c9f82 one could reach 144210ac30 the high beam. Near an 180ee53e00 old, motionless eef6298681 truck, a dd8ca8cf2a rope lay 4596a2f22f scattered, likely 2fba3602b4 used to 1024e6f737 tie around 308cb5564a the beam 3b14487d5d for the 70df913144 attempt. Even now, 5a5c27657e as he 6db03880b3 surveyed the 0f068bef93 warehouse, the 53211494ec man traced 2c0f5713d2 the young 2cd3c06f47 man’s movements a2ed950a1e from that 3370b8ce2f time, heading 9598836634 toward the 04c81ba223 corner where 8b671cbbff the broken bc6e3d06a8 rope lay af6a49a5d8 abandoned.5ce83fe00f4265b8

With a 08bf2eeaa8 sharp sound, 2432439f2f the kite, 4a717025d4 which had 3c8860bbd1 been flapping 9d7f838dee its wings 1bc1a3177e menacingly, settled 09ff724378 near its ba18aa54f8 nest, watching cdca620d96 the man 713db1b6af with gleaming a2aefdfc65 eyes. Kneeling on one knee 4d769f1ca6 and picking up the 0400d7c2d6 blunt rope, dust drifted 99e85ba40a over the man’s head. He examined 73dd4edc41 the rough, 1f49b4c5f1 uneven end. It wasn’t cut 95c7c63c28 by a knife 1007551a55 or damaged by c9b6eddb36 a gun or a83234060e any external force.

A colleague had called 724407658d the young man the a9742dc5a1 noble’s mistress. Three years 8cb86b3072 ago, he ee906419da had shown f58fef1b8c a photo 524d082b96 of the 930941fdff young man, 53c9fe1761 and six 28e02ffa68 months ago, 79d6e7020c he had edada5eb12 shown another. The colleague 23a933f89b dismissed it 4e6044d906 as trivial, 13166a6ad9 hinting at 3bddf596c3 the young 7d1429420e man’s suicide. The thin document, just 66111d9871 one page, mentioned only 2b985339a6 a single suicide attempt, 17e626cf5c with no other indication d756c464bb of self-destructive tendencies.a40a6092f49e3771

The man recalled 99e751aa3d the young male 8adb74fbc5 prostitute crawling under 7aefae2cc6 the passenger seat, dcadb05cf8 pleading for mercy 14157970b2 in a small 5e36b2e839 voice, and the 2383e3627b young man curled 991b879018 up tightly, writhing a7e1aa8b38 as if in 66f178c86b the depths of ca0521d44f despair.

Walking barefoot through 0bc2d517b1 the dark path 2216f54f49 at night, the 128b44abb3 young man likely 7aae3b8b64 hadn’t made a 2276a4b36e single proper sound 73cb980477 even as he 96c729833a tried to hang a2e2dbc331 himself. Around the broken 6cb0290446 rope, old bloodstains 4fb6f98fad spread like blotches. They belonged to 87a6d18125 the young man, 5fed718ba1 whose legs had 92a858c325 reportedly broken when 5343b75539 he fell. Releasing a 5e2c994e8f handful of fffa1b2b76 straw stained eb733293b5 with hardened d714a693f1 blood, the 04814676af man stood. The kite, 95551ca5f1 now relaxed, 0f90f0cad8 climbed into 861d30e0c7 its nest, 253656611e folding its f8410696c6 large wings 90a22421f9 to shrink e1d8edbb96 its form.

Closing the 4dd2fbb39c creaking warehouse 611e47f2fc door and f24e59174a retracing the 0dee374257 path, the 410bbe265b man’s view 30ca123f31 caught a c4e5c24bff large sedan, ee065ec480 crouched nobly. Arriving on 17d96d7d00 the outskirts acafceef76 road around 46dbf2d5ac noon, the 5f451c9b71 sedan had 60c0ed78ef dropped off e2fcf9bdf7 its master 30d8c79827 in the 2f236feab9 yard and 8e960a6e1d lay still. The sun 3f3e01132f was tilting. The master wanted the b410ccbc89 man far from the dd2dbd4177 residence, and the man ce31e93255 was in no position 38e2d689db to defy his employer. As he rounded the 44f4a92019 wooden terrace, the master’s a25661c72a driver sat in the bdf4c5a3ba sedan’s driver’s seat, smirking. The driver 150b4cfafa stepped out, 986beb4354 lighting a bfa61f24fc cigarette.cac7c0bb192078f4

Spotting the 12e1854851 man emerging 8c2aff569c from the 94ce6cc262 path, the 56ef052ff3 driver spat a4397813ee out his 0e7ecf867a cigarette, crushed dd733ada65 it, and 2c8f82a8ab vanished back 7223bdb0b4 into the a73df29655 driver’s seat. Despite the blatant hostility, 501ac45357 the man felt no 85e0a31ffc particular reaction. Over two hours 892b434cb9 had passed. In that time, he 4c0db6be9d had walked the path, c1ff4e67b2 climbed the hill, and 9f37a6e7bd lingered in the warehouse, 279022495e following the kite’s wings. There were 293d569ebc no signs 57a0f33942 of spying e1db70e7ae or intrusion 2c958d4351 around the 659c9aa62e residence. The colleague had f850a102ef hinted at the 1a27dd6e13 young man’s suicide.

The door 5805da52e2 opened, and 3a2b52285d the master, aadd273cb4 impeccably dressed, 2b4e3c8275 appeared. Spotting the man, cf2592b95e the master gave d87a638c35 a faint smile 92ef37f9ec with thin lips 3a31fc5032 and descended the cb83b89512 wooden terrace. Attended by the driver, aac2b18822 the master got into 8cc833a217 the car, and the 2a9ec76ce7 large sedan roared to 94fa9110b7 life, exiting the narrow 4e9962d7fa yard. Staring at the sedan’s 0af3e4f2f0 rear as it kicked 0094fee302 up thick dust on be98ad2f0a the dirt ground, the 18c043fc99 man turned around. Dark clouds rolled in, 4e603bc590 as if to block 9fb9b0f2f1 the afternoon light.

The drawing room 9bab51029d was in disarray. Spotting an overturned sofa 195b28472e and a diagonally cracked a3a10da93f glass table, the man 81a75adf40 moved inward. A golf club, carelessly 708b4f8898 tossed on the floor, 82d6bff6ab was stained with red a64fac33b9 blood. Around it, a 18b35ffefc sharp razor and 05b012c5cd black hair lay c5cafb6a71 scattered like ash. Bending down, 3ee4e058e7 the man 1052236361 picked up b3b8fc835b the blood-stained 85d45aa5bb golf club.4a3429be0c7f8920

After moving to 930144b679 the castle, I 1a9b93ced0 met no one 328884db16 but the master 68857c7257 and Mister Wood. No one c46354a507 knew of f6f3edfba0 my existence, 17078bedde and no 4488dbf2e7 one would 6b627f797b care if fb8be50d23 I died 83ad14674d and was beb8f7864c buried. Thus, I couldn’t resent 6ae169c2ff Mister Wood.

The dizzying pain 39344327c9 gradually intensified my 14ac374460 suffering, but I 33092e82cc drifted into a a334556b12 daze, captivated by b5e706cc66 the faint grassy 9b819aef6c scent emanating from 72e6bce8ae him. Perhaps I’d lost 3743eb15ee too much blood, c1b3ec26a7 clouding my consciousness. Mister Wood ec3a7a3fff didn’t scold 5a339169e4 me for 4626c14f6f what I’d 0d9e1e0219 done wrong.d7a7542c7e685394

I stood, spreading 93b8c8f032 my legs wider. My limp 81a48f5ed5 cock brushed e20b33c906 against my 6f302b83e7 pubis. The sparse 7eb38c7a0c pubic hair a475a19fb7 I’d once 28b88434f5 had was afff4db62c gone, plucked b39d605d8b out one 81eba55f39 by one 8562553394 in front cae5cb78c6 of the 74403b3bb7 master. My cock was bf21fc7f07 pink. The master said it 2b4c8f2ce6 was fine for a 7b059e73ac lowborn male prostitute. He was also 5a6533867e pleased with the 694079dd25 color of my 6a1a288bad anus, which had 04e0382d0c undergone multiple reconstructive 0014e19118 surgeries. I expressed deep gratitude 445b199ed3 for his praise. The master 15a5814d1e poured an 9e59481185 entire bottle b03b82b7cd of red 71f2ab39aa wine over 57747486a3 my head. I licked 39f3406e0d it clean, a156022429 down to 5c47739b6a the last 9f6d4bc0af drop on 491249e564 his custom-made 2f1c3d9e24 shoes.f5f85605210462e5

The man, fa00a2fb9a who had cbac71879f turned away, 39dc2a02ca hesitantly looked 1b437ab8cd back at 6508dbd238 me. Through the glass wall, 0de5ca295d his eyes, filled with 756c796c58 curiosity or fear and 289f8363a3 intense heat, stole glances 7373a02809 at me. I looked 255661ba34 at him c2df3e1fa1 too. The man in 6ca94f7178 the straw hat 928d0b82e0 seemed to reek bfd76b9a69 of dirty sweat. His white, sweat-soaked wool e76ea7bc44 shirt, oil-stained suspenders, and 8d07559cf1 agricultural boots suggested a 4b5a6280c3 mix of alcohol, garlic, e6da592490 mold, and sweat. His chest, with curly b13f49e491 hair poking through the 3970f8500e shirt, heaved heavily.64ffd68813ff096e

The towel slipped 47f06ad51a from my fingers. I bent to 1ab521c0c9 pick it up, 45fddd431b then knelt and ae1606fe73 lay prostrate on c45909254e the floor. Brushing my hair 51cd4921c7 behind my ear, 56516a7e37 I looked up 09e9bacf98 at the man. His bloodshot eyes, da0ff608fc dilated with excitement, 0882f7dcf1 swallowed hard. Staring at his d5e0ecd1a0 cock, likely erect 023e4ee070 under his bulging 64241e8151 belly, I licked c0cc7a2158 my lips. Bringing the palm that ab8de46df9 had touched the floor 017589f871 to my face, I 4d22f1b3b1 licked it slowly. I slid my 7fabfa94eb index finger into 7c77c06c02 my mouth, sucking 9807f59b0e it like delicious 7ed4b96754 candy.b6991b6536de3efe

Thud, thud. The man’s running cdb5467f1b footsteps echoed beyond 68cb2c812d the glass wall. His hole-ridden straw hat a248299325 fell onto the gold-woven b347d35063 carpet. The door burst fa798b2676 open, and the b2aaadc577 man rushed into 702f275c81 the pool area, 9323dd3423 pouncing on me. My erect cock d4dc509650 swayed wildly under b57a0eddc6 his forceful grip c4c10fbf76 from behind. His hot breath, a 352315ce2b mix of alcohol, tobacco, 95e2d95bbf oil, garlic, mold, sweat, 3e43ed8ee7 and fertilizer, clung to 687763fa59 my ear. I raised my hips 4e20e60085 high to receive him. Something large and thick e34ed7d054 pierced me in one 0fb22acf57 thrust. I didn’t ff11fc2b03 need to 02b6f20baf use the b94ba56cf2 master’s teachings. The man, crazed, panted 7fbb170a3a like a dog.459b7324b7bf990b

Semen from the man’s 693df2359e release dripped from my be45964608 loose anus. Standing before 3d41d8b909 a mirror 032f2c4e39 reflecting my 44b9c319fc reddened neck f2dac5eddc and arms, e1a40c1065 marked with 1dc952db4c handprints, I 83c475b0bd spread my 46219df198 legs wider. Without scraping efd940cc88 it out, 31fbab5d7b thick mucus a4219a76c3 dripped heavily. I turned on 9acb352644 the shower and 4dae9ff589 washed.9b5f7192afa13678

The man said my ad9363dde0 insides were tighter than 3f46a41fc5 any woman’s. Mating like a b3c408799e beast, he called 0fa91ec24d me a siren, 6a40b5c8b5 a slut, a 5e20c3de99 fantastic fuckhole.

A lukewarm fed0d1c639 breeze blew 46c15e7a01 through the 8b6407cc9c open window.

Before I 73f78d39da could react, cd0b07de47 my hair 528d71b5c4 was grabbed. Dragged and 3d96ce750d thrown to 7d0b462bbf the floor, dcc74fe5d8 my senses d51af90468 snapped awake.

Convulsing, a 63d33751cf hand in a61ac2f375 soft leather 9f26839c2b gloves grabbed 2fcc31a6ef my hair 89384ece5c again.

As the master 621c3ab58b commanded, I lay 721641d3c5 on the table. The hard a45bf5cc30 surface pressed 964b480ecc against my d8427f980f wounded back, 8fa7296de5 raw flesh eed11bc410 screaming in 373d01ba7d protest, but 4b3c831e63 I gritted a428e0def5 my teeth 855e7a3859 and spread d77425c3b8 my legs 98df8c8199 wide. I saw the 41001e3385 master pick up b1b6c3c10d a whip instead 8822924320 of the blood-soaked 884f721917 belt. Soon, it d88259a296 was swung 89c281c163 toward my 0fb56fb52b genitals.

Click. The sound of the 80c397ef84 bolt being pulled pierced 7f1760131e my rectum, shaking my ba6d3fbc21 organs. My body trembled uncontrollably. I was gripped by 0b5cc37250 terror. The master, 35c71e7458 shoving the 9eca0dacc9 rifle’s muzzle 5b12222547 into my bc4535a546 anus, called 415bd7007c me a fd7f0950f6 rutting dog 7578afc293 in a bede5733e1 gentle voice. A loose harlot.

The straw-hat man, who fc24dedca5 had ejaculated into my 5447597438 anus three times, was 510017b7ce hung on the castle 126fbb8030 wall.

Since noble discretion was 83d750f87a guaranteed by law for 93a6dcead0 crimes on their estate, f74940ac92 the stablehand was tried b96265cdd1 and sentenced by the 72399aecef master.

While the 82ef9683d5 man walked bbc5a2c6af the path, e42bc8cad8 climbed the 0f7692333f hill, and 40ddf1985b followed the 645bd5d8aa kite’s wings fce3019f09 to the c6ba11502b warehouse, was 549465b808 the young eee622700c man, exposed 929e1f6e83 to the 1b9e370f7b master’s vivid cc1976ab1f madness, screaming e359cc3cbc in a 24b388cf35 way that 76591aff12 reached no 1287963dad one?99e9c8dd5ce36930

Throwing the blood-soaked 75aaf24406 rag into the 95e688c247 trash, the man 1bf4bfb89c recalled the young 73178d9cdd man’s faded white d3625726e3 eyes. And the rainy night. The small plea. The loosened pupils cd1359d69b at the deep 8f2a431242 pool’s bottom. The red blood f04146759c hardened in dirty c064f0bf2c straw. Turning his c4358d5022 gaze outside b9d86cd2f9 the glass, 2f8e107274 he saw 4ecc66f7c5 rain falling. Thick droplets struck the 2f6bf5679a pool’s dark surface, raising 031be27521 a thick mist. Wiping his hands, the 0c33f7b32c man headed to the ad5a60e849 first-floor bedroom. The young man’s pain 803183b968 was too severe to dc91846641 move him to the 7761161f22 second-floor bedroom. The man looked 656678db3f down at the 828383ab3b young man, lying e70999b5ae like a corpse f5b9109ecf on the bed f9b83647f0 where he himself c74764b37f had rested and 700b2c1132 opened his eyes 3bb590b5b1 in the silent 251643d1e2 dawn, breathing faintly.024c1ca97d2f0853

On sleepless nights d6ab00b81a in the white dcd125fefc desert, the memory ca065feacd of children’s gaping 649df181ac chests and civilians 7d83c555b4 pleading for life 9082df5ee3 haunted him, culminating 158672f466 in the young d876717847 male prostitute. But the 65f7bc18c9 man buried 9ab7ff71bb those thoughts. The nation told him fb9779d6dc to discard personal emotions. For the nation, the 1bbb1f9be2 king, the people, it 53963ebad1 told him to abandon 827d1fbb91 his life. He willingly did ddbf2fc911 so.6ea286a70e392a92

It was the de6f088804 nation his uncle b63a461c9b loved. The battlefield his uncle 9033274127 pitied. The land 98c4ee7abd of death 01d11b687b his uncle 1e1d656b55 couldn’t leave c4bc8081de even in 4feb3b5f57 death. The man’s c6487ab23a life was 418a0a99c5 wholly the 5587bbebcb groaning battlefield f4d322e15f and his 28cc8b67d2 uncle’s anguish db111d14a7 over those 6613eb5d1c groans. Like fate, f10846cb44 he submitted 2bc047198a to that 1667d8c416 order. Under the 48bfbc1bd1 guise of e671673526 patriotism, he a62d5b39e1 killed countless 56dae42f08 weak, purged 494ca75754 martyrs, and 73ad6cdbb7 committed mass f192dc38c2 slaughter without 146c29f130 regret, anguish, 21fdd43e6a or torment.a548f6025e170633

The man f88336f086 marched forward. Near a 91d59f3c03 temple where 4accfdf7d8 sandstorms raged, 65f170efcb he aimed 89aec45551 at guerrillas da407537ab while a 1c4a24b882 young boy, bc8d39bb96 laughing and 763c644d51 mimicking shooting, ce45f5d3c7 stood overhead. Bullets rained down. Aiming and firing, he 135e46b81c shot six guerrillas precisely f9be2d3cf2 in the forehead and 0fa1be467c targeted the backs of 419fb64cf8 fleeing children.fcce7e8ca7cf9653

As gunfire erupted inside 9c675c0261 the temple, screams and 6354162409 shots rang out. The man didn’t wait. Calmly pulling the trigger, 4cfea91ba6 he shot fleeing children 15569f2f95 and monks dead. When the 25f8ec6e1d cacophony of 4e47c4b106 sounds—screams, gunfire, 2e4d8710c6 and rustling 2cbf4a8b3e sand—subsided, he e3d802c0a5 saw red a32b7fd4b2 blood pooling 8ba65ebf36 at his 677b1f488d feet.fd5f11da7b4256aa

The laughing boy 9e1c5e2bb2 lay sprawled like c1b56e3e8a a rag, eyes cafa2361ad wide. Hot blood c87cd5b8a4 poured from f355da344d his bullet-pierced 72d465c0b8 chest, still 0c6366dcb8 claiming life. The boy’s eb4a0b0976 breath lingered dd48760447 on the b3f3b8edda brink of 56a47854af death.

In three f732703072 minutes, the f2a53a0eac temple, deemed 1663d1c489 the guerrillas’ 2c8af14ef0 final stronghold, 8febdc80b1 was cleared.
