Corma 2

D’s blade was coming down now!
Realizing that the steel was slowly slicing through his iron club, Corma
was an instant away from total panic when he heard D’s voice.
“Where’s the girl?” the gorgeous god of death inquired.

Despite his present situation, Corma found himself intoxicated by the
voice and the beauty of the one who gazed at him. “Meyer came . . . took
her away in the wagon. Took Cuore with them, too . . . ”
D nodded, and then, with one slash, he split the iron club in half and
Corma from skull to crotch.

Without so much as a glance at the body—sending out a bloody spray
when it fell onto its back and split in two—D mounted his horse.
