Adopted Soldier-Chapter 355

Chapter 355

The Executioner who was now named Leon by Alex, looked at the boy confused . The name sounds very familiar which made Leon look at Alex with a bit of doubt .

'I guess I really might be Leon Greyhound . . . '

Richter who was watching through the security cameras was also interested in what happens next .

. . .

It was true that the one greatest regret he ever had in his life was killing his brother . This was the reason he tried everything in his power to resurrect him, and in the end, he succeeded . Richter's former subordinates Phil and Marge were able to make a specialized cryo coffin, that was able to somehow preserve Leon's body at the time of his death . It was then Leon's time stopped moving . The next step in the plan was to create a clone of Leon . This was not as easy to achieve even for Phil and Marge, but after a few years of research, they were able to make a perfect clone .

This clone was simply used to harvest organs and transplant it into the real Leon . The transplant was a success, Leon's time was able to move again . Yet when he woke up he was no longer the brother Richter remembered, he had no recollection of his past . Still, Richter considered this a good thing, since he believed that his brother's past was shameful .

Now that Alex brought it up, Richter was rather curious how his brother would react .

. . .

"Grandfather Leon . . . Please stop this, please help me end your brother's insanity . " Leon looked at Alex and saw the sincerity of his request, yet he didn't respond in the way Alex wished . Leon who was feeling a bit weird now shook his head .

"Though I cannot remember who I was before if it is as you say then that would mean the leader, Richter is my younger brother . If so that would make you my grandson as well, that would make you part of my family . Then why should I kill my own brother? Well, aside from that I'm no longer Leon anyway . . . It is as the leader said, Leon Greyhound the past me, has already died . I am no longer that person, now I'm only the Executioner . "

Leon then took his stance signaling Alex to keep on fighting . When Alex heard Leon's answer he couldn't comprehend it . Even though his memories of Leon were almost non-existant, Alex's father has told him stories about Leon . This person was supposedly the only Greyhound that truly didn't like the idea of revenge . He was the sanest of the Greyhounds, and also was one of the most powerful .

'Then why did he answer in such a way? Was it because of his lost memories? That must be it! I just need to remind him of who he was . '

"Leon! Are you truly okay with the path your brother has taken? As the older brother will you not bring him back to the correct path?"

Leon didn't bother to answer Alex as he once again started attacking . Alex didn't bother fighting back and was dodging while trying to convince Leon .

"I know you're still in there somewhere! Please listen to me!" Alex who was a bit distracted wasn't able to properly dodge the incoming kick as his mind was elsewhere . Leon's kick to Alex's gut blew the young man into the wall .

This was the first good hit Alex had after he gained his new strength . Yet it didn't hinder him instead it woke him up .

"I guess you won't talk to me if I use the normal methods . So let's do this the Greyhound way!" Alex spat a mouthful of blood and then sped forward while shooting at Leon . It was easy for Leon to dodge gunfire, if he wanted to he could even catch a bullet using his teeth . In their current level, unless the other party could predict the next move of the opponent, there is no way a bullet could hit . Since Leon and Alex were almost equally skilled with Leon having an advantage, Alex didn't have the capability to make the battle flow his way .

Alex then blocked the shat of the scythe using his sword, but then Leon pulled the scythe closer aiming to cut Alex in half . Alex followed the blade as he stepped forward towards Leon and punched him . Leon tried to sway his head to dodge but was unable to as Alex's punch suddenly accelerated hitting him at the head .

"Did that wake you up?"

. . .

It was already an hour since the battle between Alex and Leon started, and it would seem that a winner couldn't be decided . Based on their skill their battle could last for days before a victor would appear . So Richter decided to end the match prematurely .

. . .

Leon who just finished his bout with Alex was now talking to Richter .

"So what do you think?" Richter asked filled with curiosity .

"About what?"

"About you being my older brother, it's the truth you know . Do you wish to once again become Leon Greyhound? If you so wish it, I could even hand you the position as head of the Greyhounds . So what do you say?" Richter looked calm on the outside, but on the inside, he was trying to hold in his excitement .

Leon looked at Richter for a few seconds before shaking his head .

"I don't want to become the head of the Greyhounds . As for being your brother, does it matter? . . . It's as you said before I already died as Leon Greyhound, and I am no longer him . My name alongside everything else from my past has been wiped clean from my memory . I can no longer be who I used to be . . . Now I can only be the Executioner, nothing more nothing less . . . "

Richter who was excited moments ago was now feeling a bit depressed . "I see . . . You may leave . " Leon bowed his head and left the room, leaving a disappointed Richter behind .

'In the end . . . I can only rely on myself . . . '
