16TH CENTURY, AN UNPRECEDENTED DROUGHT
RAVAGES THE SOUTH OF FRANCE.

On my grave, I would like it to say,

"If you want old age
and a cushy life, don't have kids."

Where is she?

Things were so good before I had a child.

Fuck it.

I should never have left Lamartine.

LAMARTINE CITY

Lamartine is the largest
trading city round here.

Which means it's the wealthiest,
and the most corrupt. And the most fun.

Do you like what you see?

Did you miss me?

I followed the classic career path.
Orphanage, to the street, then prison.

Until my boss got me out,

and employed me.

My boss is Nicolas de Rochemort,
the city's vice consul.

-He's like a father to me.
-Should I trust him?

In fact, I would die for him.

There are seven of us.

We all have our own areas of expertise
and mine is being the best.

One day, I'll sit at his table.

I'll see you shortly.

And I'll be like one of his family.

Hortense, the boss's daughter.

The red eyes, the sad face,
that's all to be expected.

The poor girl has just lost
her betrothed, Tancrède.

A young general who died in battle,
killed by the penitents.

The penitents are fanatics
who terrorise the countryside.

They say we aren't
submissive enough to God.

Stay close to me.

They're lunatics.

Néro.

Allow me to introduce Néro.

He was with your son
at the time of the tragedy.

Néro, uh… can you tell them what happened?

Hmm.

Your son was determined
to strike a peace agreement.

But the penitents had decided otherwise.

I've never seen anyone fight like that.

We fought side by side like old friends.

But the enemy were far too strong.

And they outnumbered us.

We were soon overwhelmed.

He simply saved my life.

There was nothing I could do.

And he died… He died a hero.

Thank you.

But don't think I'm a traitor.
There's no one more loyal than me.

I don't decide who lives or dies.
My boss does.

My name is Néro,
and I'm the best assassin in Lamartine.

NÉRO THE ASSASSIN

Or at least, I was.

ROME, THE HOLY SEE

CERTIFICATE OF BAPTISM

That's it.

It's him.

I have him.

It's him.

It's him.

I found him.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

He's the one.

The last descendant of the devil.

-It all fits.
-Show me.

The baptism took place in an orphanage
in the south of France 35 years ago.

-The Holy Father must be told.
-Of course.

Pray first though, as evil is here.

I found him.

Anyone else knows this name?

The consul wants to see me.

That's not good.

His Eminence, Consul Corsini.

My deepest condolences.

Your daughter must be devastated.

A tragedy.

Don't fuck with me, Nicolas.

You had her fiancé killed so that
she could marry the Prince of Ségur.

I never gave my approval
for that marriage.

You forget your rank, Nicolas.

Your rank is vice consul.

The lands of Ségur are so rich in tin

and those stupid idiots do nothing.

The prince is young and feeble.

Once we're family,
the prince can be manoeuvred

to our ends.

"To our ends."

With you as the prince's father-in-law,

you will be rich.

Very rich.

And powerful.

So powerful.

In other words,

the new consul.

You're rotten to the core, Nicolas.

As for your daughter's wedding,
it's a "no".

-Néro, are you coming?
-Néro!

Always tempting, but I don't have time.

Spare a coin?

Hey, Néro, alright, brother?

Take this. It's an incredible root.
You'll be high as a kite, my friend.

And one day, will you get a job
that will make your mother proud?

I'm not sure. Will you?

Mmm.

Ah! Here she is.

Diamantina.

Hi, honey.

Nice boots, Néro.

Don't fret now. I remember.
I'll pay you back soon.

Whoo!

Mmm.

-Hey!
-I'll show you a real man.

-Ah!
-Leave her. Come on.

Néro, yes, I'm coming.
Sorry, boys. Let's go.

Yes?

Ugh!

Who are you?

Why the long faces?

-The boss wants to introduce someone.
-Let's go.

What's happening?

The consul snuffs it tonight.

Sorry, my lord, but that's suicide.

Everyone has tried and failed.

Even us.

Can't get into his palace.

He has a whole garrison.

Against us seven.

One is enough.

Toussaint.

-The consul is dead!
-What?

The consul is dead?

Consul Corsini is dead!

What?

We've lost the consul!

Murdered in his bed!

Toussaint!

Toussaint.

We're late.

-I won't come. I'm exhausted.
-Ugh!

It needs air in here. It stinks of death.

What do you want?

I just came to see how you are.

I'm not well.

You have a…

Oh, fuck.

How did you murder Corsini?
The seven of us never managed it.

-How did you do it on your own?
-I really can't say.

Did the one-eyed woman know a way in?

Yeah. That's it.

-You're taking the piss?
-Yes, I am.

Who is she, this woman?

She's a witch.

But…

Yeah.

I thought it was a myth.

But she did some kind of ritual with me

and I found myself
in the consul's chamber.

You can go now.

Hail, Lord Consul.

-Congratulations, my Lord Consul.
-Thank you.

You could smile.

This is a funeral.

You smile too much.

Thank you very much. Thank you.

Thank you for your kindness.

Pleasure.

-Who is the one-eyed woman you hired?
-No one, Néro.

We'll pay her, she disappears.

Forget about her and have a good time.
Tonight, you dine at my table.

It'll just be family. Nothing formal.

I should be very pleased
if you would dine with us.

Yes, I'll be there. It's… it's… it's…

It's a great honour, of course.
I'm lost for words.

Then say nothing. Don't be late.

Hmm.

Uh…

No, that's for fish. I can't believe this.
Have you been taught nothing?

No.

My lady.

Leave us alone, please.

Are you nervous about dinner tonight?

-Give it to me. I'll show you.
-No, it's alright.

-Do I intimidate you?
-No, you don't intimate me at all.

I'm truly happy for you.

You were an orphan

and now you're dining
with the most powerful man in Lamartine.

I can barely imagine
the things you've done to merit that.

But I'm not surprised.

We don't speak,
but I've been watching you for a while.

You're different to the others.

You have something special.

Néro?

Yes, my lady?

Did my father kill my fiancé?

Why would he want to do that?

So that I would marry the Prince of Ségur?

Don't pretend you don't know.

Why would he tell me though?

Ah.

But the dog who lies
at his master's feet hears it all.

You could have asked me directly
about your fiancé, you know.

It would have been less demeaning.

It can't hold a fork, but it has feelings.

Isn't life strange, huh?
I'm his dog but it's you he abandons?

At least once I'm married,
I won't have to see your ugly face.

Yes?

This is from Consul Rochemort, here.

"So you never forget
how much you mean to me."

Just eat, why don't you?

You're not the problem. It's her.

Can you believe that's the face
of a future princess?

I'm about to be sold and raped,
but he's a prince so I should be thankful?

You'll be the sovereign of a great city.

Ségur holds
a lot of power in Christianity.

Oh, good.

I so love going to Mass.

That's enough now!

All you've ever known is privilege!

So now you will stop complaining

and, for once,
you will please uphold your rank

and you will do what I want!

Get out, all of you.

Out!

Stay there.

Good food?

Mmm.

If you only knew
how lucky you are not to be a father.

You know, I would have loved
to have a son like you.

A son who has a sense of family.

You would do anything for me.

I'd give up my life for you.

I know.

That's why you're here.

I told you we would pay
the one-eyed woman.

You're the payment, I'm afraid.

I'm what?

You mean…

to screw her?

It's not that, no.

I have to kill someone?

So what then?

Sorry, but I don't agree.

I thought that would happen.

As did she.

So sorry, Néro.

Fuck…

Let him loose.

You have children.
Where are your children?

What's the matter?

He has children.

You told me he didn't have a child!

Where are they?

Your children?

I don't know.

I don't have any children.

You find them.

We agreed on Néro, you got that.
This is no longer my problem.

You'd prefer to have me as your problem?

Do any of you know anything?

His love life is no secret.

You just have to go to Diamantina's.

He stays alive until we find his child.

Toussaint? Why are you here?

I heard what the bitch did to you.

Go on. Try it.

Hang on. My necklace.

Try it.

Do it, do it, do it. Yes, yes.

Yes!

Forget it. It won't work.

Thank you.

Don't thank me.

Just knife the bitch.

It's too late for me.

He had an affair with one of my girls.

Callista.

She had a baby.

And where is this Callista?

She died giving birth to her.

-When?
-Fourteen years ago.

And the baby?

The Sainte Mère Orphanage,
he left her there.

Tell the one-eyed woman.

SAINTE MÈRE ORPHANAGE

Horace!

Horace!

Hmm.

You should know
that I'm an early riser, Néro.

Where is my daughter?

Why do you want to see her?

'Cause she's my daughter.

She doesn't need you.

Some people want to murder her.

-But you've come to save her?
-Mm-hmm.

Mmm. You save people now, do you?

Hmm.

Who is looking?

You won't believe me.

A witch is.

Look at what she did to me.

Néro, you know that witches are a myth.

And that? What's that?

Go on, try to remove it.

-Try it. Try to pull it off, will you?
-Hmm.

She put this on me.
She can strangle me at will.

Try to tell me
what's happening, without lying.

I don't understand it.
She went after me. Now she's after her.

She spoke of the… the last descendant of…

I don't know.

Néro, seriously.

Tell me where I can find my daughter.

What's she doing up here?

She's being punished. She's very unruly.

A chip off the old block.

We caught her skinning
a dead cat, you know.

There was a public execution
that she'd seen. She wanted to copy it.

-Why did you take her to see it?
-It's not our fault.

She runs off
to go and see it. She loves it.

Perhaps she hopes to see her father there.

No, wa… You bastard! Fuck it!

Horace! You're the lowest scum
in this city! Open the door!

Come on, Horace, open it!

I swear to you. I wanna help her.

Horace. Horace! Horace, it's her!

Please, don't answer.
You'll get killed, you fool!

Open the door, Horace! Horace! Fuck!

Yes?

I'm looking for a child.

If it's about an adoption,
you'll have to come back later.

They're not up yet.

I've come for the daughter
of the prostitute, Callista.

She was entrusted to you 14 years ago.

And you are?

Her auntie.

Ah, well, I…

I'll have to check in my register.
You just wait there.

I'll come with you.

Hmm…

You said it was 14 years ago?

Yeah…

Um… uh…

It's this one.

Yes, but she's not here now.

So where?

You know, with these children,

we keep them if we can.

She was very wild, actually.
Very, very violent.

I… I've never known such a violent child.

And some of them
just go back to the streets.

Where is she now?

Uh…

Hey, hey, hey.

The cat-torturer girl,
where is she? Tell me!

Hey.

Hey, there.

Come on, we're out of here.

Don't be scared. I'm here to help you.

They want to kill you, okay?
We have to leave. Hurry.

Brother, what is happening?

Brother Horace.

Brother Horace!

She's here.

Not happy at all.

You let him escape.

And he has his daughter with him as well.

You have to close the city gates.

Issue a wanted notice.

And a very generous reward.

He'll already be far away.

Then you have to dispatch
all your men after him.

You don't know Néro.

You can't catch a ghost.

My lord, he's here.

Look what the cat dragged in.

He's unarmed.

I want to negotiate.
You just have to remove this necklace.

You give me 10,000 ducats, a boat,
and then you get the child back alive.

You want the child back alive,
isn't that right?

-Where is she?
-Kill me, you kill the girl.

If I don't make it back, she'll die.

Tell me where.

Up your arse!

Now bring her to me.

Hang on. Hang on.

First, remove this.

-It's not that simple.
-Hmm, yes, it is.

Whoo!

You saw that?

You saw that.

Turns out… not so bad with a fork, huh?

Oh, she was a pain in the arse!

Why do you all look like that?

You preferred her alive, is that it?
Not impressed, my lord?

-We're content
-Ah.

I didn't think you'd come back,
to be honest.

I wasn't gonna leave you with that loon.

I wouldn't leave her lying there
'cause she'll fuck up your floor.

Chop chop.

What is it you want, Néro?

Just that it all…
goes back to like before.

It was fine then. No, my lord?

Just forget about it?

Mm-hmm.

I'd like that very much, Néro,
but I played Judas.

Let's not deny it.

Well, you betrayed me, but you had to.

True.

But we both know that,
however much you try,

you won't forget what I did, will you?

Let me try.

And if you can't do that?

Moi?

You see, that's the problem.

From now on, I would have to trust you,
after I betrayed you, wouldn't I?

I've looked at it from all angles, but…

there's no going back.

Of course you betrayed me, my lord,
but that's our job, huh?

I betray you, you betray me,
we all betray each other.

You're the best at this game, my lord.
So why would I be upset?

I mean, it's an honour, really.

Kill him.

Find him.

He knows too much.

She went after me. Now she's after her.

She spoke of the…
the last descendant of… I don't know.

"When the time comes,

the devil will possess

the body of his last descendant

to make him into the Messiah of Darkness,

who will bring about the advent

of the apocalypse."

I'm listening.

I am here about a child.

A child I care for.

What about her?

She has to die.

But why?

She is the last descendant of the devil.

I was the one who raised this child.

And I love her with all my heart.

I could never find
the strength to kill her.

Horace, if what you say is true,
you have no choice.

I'll accompany her to Ségur.
The archbishop will handle it all.

-The journey to Ségur is dangerous.
-I know who can accompany me.

And he has the abilities
to undertake this kind of journey.

-Stop it, Néro. Stop it.
-How did you find me?

You've been hiding here
since you were ten.

-Where's your daughter?
-Ah, I see you want to save her now?

Where is she?

She's safe somewhere.

We must go right away.

Don't worry.
I killed the witch. She's in no danger.

We must take her to Ségur,
to the archbishop.

For what reason?

To protect her. It's the only place
she won't be in danger.

You know how the journey is?
There's a famine over there.

The region is ablaze
because of the penitents.

It's no journey for a girl.
Or you, for that matter.

That's why you have to come with us, Néro.

-Of course.
-You have to help her, Néro.

You already abandoned her before.

Do you really want to abandon her again?

That girl means nothing to me.

The archbishop will pay you handsomely
once we get there.

I promise you.

Don't worry. We will take you to safety.

What the fuck is going on?
And who is the grandfather?

And where's my money?

I'm warning you, if you double-cross me
you'll choke on your own blood.

Horace, pay him. I have nothing.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hey, hey. Alright, stop.

I'm on your side. Just calm down.

Stop. Don't do it!

Hey! He's your father!

Perla, listen. He's your father.

Give it to me.

Give it.

Why didn't you tell me
that I had a father?

I never spoke of him
so you wouldn't hope in vain.

Your father isn't a good man.

He's not a man of his word.

He is a godless,
lawless man with no scruples…

No, go on, will you?

Go ahead.

Because you forgot to mention…

I'm a liar, thief, uh… uncouth,

a cheat, debauched.

Uh…

An addict, a ne'er-do-well…

Hmm… Did I leave anything out?

Come on. We'll take the south gate.

-What's so special about the girl?
-The forces of evil are after her.

-Why?
-I don't know, Néro.

That's why I want to find the archbishop.
He'll have the answers.

NÉRO - DEAD OR ALIVE
10,000 DUCATS

-This isn't right. Let us through.
-It's sealed off. You can't.

Get back.

Take up your position.

Get back. You can't pass.

The city gates are shut
by order of the consul.

What's going on?

Get back! You can't pass!

-We'll split up. It's safer.
-What?

Come here.

Come on. Come on now.

Where are we going?

Néro, where are we going?

You'll see.

There.

That's your plan? Rochemort's palace?

Trust me. We'll get out
of this city, no problem.

Everyone knows that carriage.
No guard will dare stop it.

Ah!

There you are.

I was looking for you everywhere.

Your carriage awaits.

Driver, the soldiers are here.

Bring out the coach.

What's happening?

-They need the carriage.
-Shit.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa.

I have a few things to sort out here.

Tell the prince I'll be in Ségur
the day after tomorrow… with gold.

The mission upsets you, Captain?

This marriage serves your interests,

not those of the city.

If you'd prefer a promotion to the front,
I can arrange it for you now.

I'm proud of you.

I always knew you had
what it takes to be a woman of power.

Mmm.

Ya!

Push back! Push back!

Make way! Make way!

Let the consul's carriage through!

Make way for the consul!

Make way.

Do you have a name?

Hey, look there!

What?

What do you have for us?

What are you doing?

Are you stupid or what? She's stiff.

So what? Me too!

You fucking disgust me.
You're an animal, you are.

If you don't mind, I don't mind.

Hey, hurry up, will you, yeah?

She has some really weird shit.

Are you done yet?

Yes.
