Chapter 237: You Missed
Before the first man could even get across the bridge, Dimitri was in front of him, a somewhat deranged smile on his face. However, before he could lift up his knife to take the man’s head, a hole blossomed in the middle of his forehead.
"Ronan!" cursed Dimitri as he looked up and around to see where the connard was lying in wait. That was supposed to be his kill! Not Ronan’s!
"You snooze, you lose," chuckled Ronan as his voice seemed to be coming from all sides. "De first kill is mine!"
Letting out a frustrated hiss, Dimitri gripped the muzzle of the next soldier as the idiot took aim. Pulling him forward, he brought his arm up to stab the little soldier’s neck. But before his knife could taste any blood, Gluttony was there, taking his kill.
"What de fuck?!?" growled Dimitri as he looked around at his brothers. Each one of the fuckers was just standing there, their arms crossed in front of their chests as if they were watching a good show.
"Oh," muttered Beau, his head cocked to the side as he blinked at Dimitri. "I’m sorry. Did I take your kill? I guess that is one for Sloth and one for me. Better luck next time."
Letting out a roar of rage, Dimitri didn’t even bother with the body in his arms, tossing it over the bridge and into the moat like the garbage it was.
"De next one is mine," he vowed softly, his head bent forward as he focused on the man racing toward his death. Determined not to let another brother take it from him, Dimitri raced forward, stabbing the man in the stomach as he dragged his knife upward.
"Sorry, mon frère," chuckled Dante as he whispered in Dimitri’s ear. "But I believe you said that only the heads matter and this one is mine." Holding up the head in his hand, Dante smiled brightly even as the body of the dead human collapsed between the two men.
