Chapter 33: Rebecca's Persuasion

In an instant, the killing intent of everyone present was substantial. Assassinate Nidhogg! This Stoker Empire assassin knows the purpose of their trip very well, no, she must not be left behind!

"Calm down!" Regner raised his hand again to signal the others to calm down, in fact, he had somewhat guessed why Number was waiting for him here. But he didn't expect No. 1 to say his purpose so blatantly.

"You called this woman?" Mel asked with a frown, he didn't like this unknown woman because Mel smelled very strong danger from her.

"......" Regner could only shake his head silently, he hesitated, but still said, "But I can guarantee that this woman has no ill intentions." ”

"Your Excellency, according to Your Majesty's will, this operation is to be kept completely secret. "Soul Reminder.

"Yes, and at the same time Your Majesty said that you three should obey my orders. Regner glanced at the three Assassin brothers and said coldly, "Now I order you to shut up and watch quietly." ”

After suppressing the restless three Assassin brothers, Regner turned to One, and asked, "So, One, what do you want?"

"Didn't I just say that?" One leisurely played with the transparent dagger in his hand, "I'm here to stop you from assassinating Nidhogg, and call me Rebecca." ”

"How do you know the purpose of our trip?" Regner was quite annoyed by One's loose attitude, and he said with a gloomy face, "One, if you are not stupid, you should understand the current situation, and if you don't answer my questions well, then I don't bother to care about you." ”

"It's something obvious. One said nonchalantly, "The entire continent has been made like this, and in the end, the Hawk Empire always has to jump over the wall to find a few assassins to deliver the heads to Nidhogg." Also, again, call me Rebecca. ”

Regner exchanged glances with Mel and Annelot, and finally it was Regner who asked, "So, a ...... Rebecca. Why are you stopping me?"

"I think you've already guessed it, right? Nidhogg has now become an outlander. One, no, Rebecca said slowly, "So haven't you been curious until now? But now you see, Nidhogg has turned the entire continent upside down, and the Origin Rules have not punished it until now?

"We can't figure it out yet, then, little girl, do you know what?" Mel asked.

"I think you also know that it takes a lot of power to confront the punishment of the Origin Rule head-on, but the influence of the Destruction Continent is of this level, let alone Nidhogg. Rebecca said and looked at Regner, and he continued, "Even the power of the gods can't compete with it. But what about the punishment of the original rule, although it is terrible, its rules are extremely rigid and simple, so there are many ways to avoid punishment. Nidhogg, on the other hand, uses this method. ”

"How did he do that?" Mel asked.

"Quite simply, he deceived Kilron into making Kilron the author of the Death Wave, so he could continue to plan what was to come. ”

"Is Kilron so stupid?" Regner couldn't help but complain.

"If your kingdom has been beaten to the imperial capital, maybe you will act even more stupid than him. Rebecca's spicy counterattack.

"Hey, don't beat around the bush and scold me!"

"And what about your reason?" Mel pulled the topic back in time before the two turned into meaningless bickering, "Whoever created the tide of death, the current tide of death is objective, what is your reason for stopping us from moving forward?"

"The rules of origin, though blunt, are not pure fools. Rebecca went on to explain: "Therefore, although Kilron is the one who started the tide of death, as Nidhogg, who planned everything, has also been punished, but standing behind Kilron will make the punishment much less than if he directly started the tide of death." But even so, half of the continent's life is almost reaching Nidhogg's limit.

"You mean ......," Annelot guessed, "even if we don't go, Nidhogg will take the initiative to quell the tide of death for fear of the punishment of the Origin Rules?"

"That's it. Rebecca nodded.

"If that's all your reasoning is, then we're sorry we can't accept it. Regner looked at Rebecca and shook his head: "Actually, according to what you mean, whether we go to the assassination or not, the tide of death will actually subside, right?"

"Yes, isn't that enough?" Rebecca's expression finally took on a bit of loss when she heard Regner's refusal.

"Then let me ask you, even if the tide of death subsides, what will happen to Nidhogg?" Regner couldn't tell whether Rebecca's sudden change of demeanor at this time was acting or real, he could only analyze it without emotion, and said: "Nidhogg will still exist, right? Let such a cancer live in the world, do you think the empire will be stable in the future? Even for the sake of long-term peace in the future, we must kill Nidhogg. ”

"Long peace, peace in the empire, why do you want to lie to me with such a statement? Actually, to put it bluntly......" Rebecca looked at Regner, and suddenly asked sharply, "Actually, to put it bluntly, if Nidhogg is still alive, your baby Anne's life will be in danger at all times!, isn't it?"

Regner stared at Rebecca with some annoyance, then nodded vigorously in retaliation, "Yes, that's it. ”

"Me?" Anne Lot was stunned, although she also noticed that several of the agents that Regner had planted to protect her had died, but she thought that it was just the assassination of the entire human race by the high undead in the Tide of Death. Therefore, she still did not expect that she was the most important thing in Nidhogg's eyes.

"I'm sorry, kid, I shouldn't have kept it a secret from you. Mel sighed helplessly, and then told some of the truth that had been hidden.

"So......" Anne Lot looked at Regner.

"That's why Regner has been so desperate to improve his strength in the past few months, that's why he has placed the entire MIA good hand by your side, so he will come forward when he sees the situation getting more and more serious. He didn't do this for any country, continent, or human race. Rebecca glanced at Annelot, sneered, and said, "Just for you." ”

"That's enough!" Under Rebecca's aggressive tone, a nameless fire also flashed in Regner's heart, and he said in a fierce voice: "Whether Lao Tzu saves mankind, the mainland, or Anne, it's all Lao Tzu's own business, and Lao Tzu doesn't need to listen to your fingers here." ”

"Don't you see it now?" Rebecca raised her voice, "Why hasn't Nidhogg quelled the tide of death yet? It's not because he wants to kill as many people as he wants, he's just trying to force you out!"

"Forcing me out?" Ragner almost laughed at him, pointing at himself and asking self-deprecatingly, "How can I, Regner, do I, have a mere assassin who has not yet entered the Sanctuary, and the famous legendary mage Nidhogg go to great lengths to deal with it?"

"Because you're a shadow...... Poof!" Rebecca was halfway through her words when she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Revealing the secrets of the gods is also a taboo in the rules of the origin, if you say it, you will die, and it will be a death of inaction, because the truth you confide cannot change the current situation at all. A voice rang in Rebecca's head.

"Pero!" Rebecca gritted her teeth as she spat out the name of the sun god.

"Well, I'm not interested in knowing that right now. Regner frowned impatiently: "I want you to understand that if the truth you tell can't change the fact that Nidhogg is still alive, then I can't stop moving forward, that's all." ”

"......" Rebecca silently.

"Look, that's it, the predetermined destiny is the fact. And now, you have only two choices in the face of the facts, the first is to help him complete the predetermined destiny, the second is to let him fail before his fate, and you need to wait again for an unknown number of years to usher in the next reincarnation with unknown results. After Pero said this, he fell completely silent.

Rebecca, on the other hand, pondered a countermeasure in hatred amid the strange gazes of the others. But after a long time, she didn't think of any better path. Perro was right, there were only two paths in front of her. Go ahead, or keep waiting.
