To Edie, the thugs were nothing short of a bunch of combat amateurs. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

No, in fact, it can't be said either.

The reason why I have this idea is because I have made extremely rapid progress over the years. So much so that these big people who had to look up to Santos have now become lambs that can be easily slaughtered.

The half-sword swirled and danced in the air, and with a single twist of the power of his wrist, he easily disarmed the screaming and wielding one-handed axe. Then he swiped his half-sword at the opponent's neck, which was wide open, and the poor fellow clutched his neck and lay on the ground screaming.

"Evil, devil! This guy is a demon!"

A dozen or so evil parties pushed me backwards, and they looked at Edie like demons in the abyss.

The delicate red carpet of the bungalow had been stained with black and red ink, the blood that had flowed from the bodies of corpses lying crookedly on the ground.

"Demons? Hmph, you wastes who are good for nothing but oppressing the good, in my opinion, you are the real demons! Uncle, I have never seen a mad guy like you in Santos Town!"

Edie looked coldly at this group of guys who were shivering like lambs, after the baptism of the Northern War, he was no longer the rookie who would be swayed by the enemy's plea for mercy, he had become a real elite knight.

"Get out of the way, I'm going to give this bastard a little color!"

A bookshelf in the lobby of the bungalow was pushed open, and a strong man dressed in a delicate merchant's costume with a meaty face walked out.

He didn't look like a businessman at all, and anyone who first met him would think he was a bandit in the middle of the word.

In fact, this guy is even more odious than a bandit. He is the head of this chamber of commerce, and he is also the boss of this gang.

"Knight, aren't you very strong, I'd like to see how you fight the demons I have summoned!"

The fleshy man laughed maniacally, and then he turned sideways, and through the filthy room covered in blood and viscera, a terrifying tall black figure could be seen stepping step by step.

Knock, knock, knock......

Dull footsteps and a frantic roar could be heard coming from the room, and Edie's eyes were imprinted into a terrifying monster that was two meters and a half tall, with hideous horns that bent backwards, and muscles tied all over the body.

Its hands, ankles, and crotch were black crusty horns, and a molten red glow flowed from the cracks, and its feet were as large and terrifying as cow's hooves.

Its whiskers flowed the red of magma, and when its eyes and mouth opened, a scarlet glow converged from it.

It was a fierce demon, and it was also a mid-to-high-end terrifying monster among the abyssal demons.

Under the smug gaze of the gang boss, Edie showed a solemn expression.

He hadn't really fought a demon, in other words, he didn't know anything about the Demons' strengths, shortcomings, and characteristics, which was the worst for a warrior.

But before that, the terrible monster had stabbed the gang boss in the back with a right hand as sharp as a drill, and blood burst out from a huge gap. The gang boss stared incredulously at the hideous claws protruding from his chest, and a pain that was so hot that it burned his soul made him gasp for breath.

"Why, why ......"

He struggled to look back at the demon he had summoned, and the latter responded to him with a large, enlarged, fishy mouth.

Click, click......

It was the crisp sound of the demon chewing on the hard skull, which reminded Edie of the crunchy bones of eating chicken thighs, and the association made him take a deep breath and barely suppress the discomfort of his stomach rolling.

"Hah! The elite knight of the two-legged pig, you never told me to fight such an enemy. So, the price of deceiving me is your delicious head. But don't worry, I'm a devil of credit, and since you've paid what you deserve, I'll take this two-legged pig into your stomach!hahaha, thank me for my generosity!"

The demons let out a deep cry, and the tragic death of the boss completely broke the thugs.

They threw down their weapons and rushed out of the door, even if there were enemies outside, but in their eyes it was a thousand times better than being in the same room with a demon.

"Hmph, what a big talker, I'm going to make your head into a wine vessel and present it to the great Archduke Erossa!"

The demons' foul words completely enraged Edie, and he unleashed magical energy throughout his body, displaying martial arts that he had never used before.

The sword in the stone, the body of steel, that is the secret sword technique of the Clayderman family that was taught with Lawrence's permission. Just an ordinary slash made the bungalow gather a chilling sword wind.

The demon could no longer be as easy as it appeared, swinging its massive claws like drill bits, and the claws of the sword intersected with a clanging sound.

The Demon thought that with his strong strength, he could easily knock the weak two-legged pig in front of him away, but it miscalculated Edie's strength, and the body of steel gave Edie great strength and resistance to blows, using the skills taught to him by the martial arts master, he used the power of his wrist to unload the terrifying strength of the Demon, and turned slightly short to the back, borrowing the centripetal force to slash at the weak neck of the Demon.

"Whew-"

Seven points into the flesh, it was the painful wail of the demons. Edie smiled triumphantly, and to his surprise, even after such a severe mortal wound, the demon was not dead for a while. It spun around and stabbed its drill-like hands at Edie like a mad beast.

Although he narrowly avoided the desperate killing attempt, his shoulders were grazed by the Demon's counterattack. Lava and evil forces invaded Edie's body, causing him to feel like his soul was being burned.

Eddie was angry at his carelessness, and he mustered all his demonic energy to kick the demon hard, trying to escape the other man's pursuit.

Then, the angry knight raised his sword in his hand and half a sword towards the enemy.

"I declare that you have officially angered me!"

……

Two minutes later, the knight, whose shoulders had become tattered, walked out of the bungalow with his huge head in his hand, and his terrifying aura made every soldier look at him with admiration.

"Well done! ”

Evan praised the knight, and he sighed at the wonder of this world.

Before this, he would never have imagined that this uneducated gangster in the small town of Santos eight years ago would grow to the extent he is today.

"Fortunately, Your Highness!"

Edie knelt down on one knee and stood his half-sword upright in front of him, and made a knightly salute to Aven.

"But, with all due respect! I always felt like every one of our arrests was deliberately guided, where could so many people who knew how to summon demons appear in one day, it was just, almost like ......"

Edie didn't say what he said, and the knight who had grown up in the slums had his own way of doing things.

He wouldn't be quick to make his assumptions, because that would only lead to countless enemies.

"We've got a traitor in the middle. ”

Evan knew what Edie was trying to say, something he had suspected for a long time.

No matter how powerful the intelligence is, it is impossible to find out so many madmen who can summon demons in one day.

However, it is precisely because of the accuracy of the intelligence that Evan cannot mobilize forces to support his brother, because the slightest mistake in judgment may cause a terrible disaster.

It's like someone is deliberately guiding the mode of action!

That person was gambling, betting that Ai Wenming knew that Charlotte's side was the most likely place for the Annihilation of All Things to be active, but he didn't dare to make a decision easily.

"What a nasty conspiracy!"

Evan looked at the people present one by one, and he knew that if there were really traitors, then the greatest possibility was among these high-ranking people. But everyone's face was as usual, and there was no sign of wavering at all.

"Your Highness Aven, with all due respect, I feel compelled to give strength to the evening assembly. Even if it distracts us, it's the only way to cope. And I don't understand, why don't you ask Her Royal Highness the Princess to help, if Her Royal Highness Fei Wenli makes a move, for us who are short of manpower, we must be able to get stronger support!"

Edie decided to speak his mind, and he was a little puzzled by what Evan was doing.

Why freeze your own most powerful power? Is it really because of Crown Prince Elbert? This is a little too unwise.

He has been growing up with Evan and Fei Wenli, and he knows in his heart that the so-called discord between siblings is completely imaginary from the outside world. In fact, Evan had spoiled Vivien Leigh to the point of exceeding.

Hearing Edie's mention of Princess Vivien Leigh, Earl Aubrey, who was still thinking about marrying Edie, looked at the gradually fading sky in embarrassment, and he decided to give up the so-called dream of marriage.

After all, although Edie is very strong, a nobleman who does not understand politics really can't achieve a higher level. Just when Aubrey was embarrassed and didn't know what to do, the overly serious pastor finally did a good thing.

"What assembly, what assembly, Your Highness Aven, do you have something to hide from us?"

This is an overly old-fashioned fellow, Aubrey thought.

Where there is a reason for the inferior to question the superior, for the future career of this priest, Earl Aubrey silently sentenced him to death.

Evan touched his brow in annoyance, and Edie's words made sense. But who should be sent to support Charlotte? This person must be strong enough not to hold Charlotte back, and he must also be trustworthy.

It seems that only Edie, Vivien Leigh and Claire are up to par, but Claire and Edie have become overwhelmed just by suppressing these demon summoners, and Vivien Leigh?

In fact, although it seems that the most suitable person is her, for reasons that cannot be said, Fei Wenli is precisely the one who cannot be used.

So, who is left?

Aven's gaze swept over everyone present, Aubrey, don't be funny, want an earl to be in danger? Aven wasn't stupid enough to do that.

So Neham or Inigo? Although Evan is the leader of this team, in terms of rights, he does not have the right to force Inigo and Neam to act.

Crown Prince Elbert?When have you ever seen the reason to let a distinguished guest go into danger, although Evan has such an impulse in his heart.

So...... That's all I can think about.

With this in mind, Evan decided to hand over the command to Count Aubrey, and then, to investigate the rally himself, and to support his brother.

Only then could he use this as an excuse to activate the secret army that even he couldn't fully control.

Hope...... Charlotte, that guy wouldn't be so talkative as to reveal his hidden true strength.

He sighed slightly, and was about to speak, when Neham's serious voice came to his ears.

"Your Highness, I hope you can tell me the truth. After all, as Baron Edie said, we can't afford to leave anything to chance. Neham is willing to inquire into the authenticity of the so-called assembly, and I will not allow any trace of evil to grow in front of Dagmar's eyes!"

It was an unexpected twist, and Evan finally smiled happily as he looked at the priest in front of him.

Being able to unleash Dagmar's divine magic, in Aven's opinion, this guy has almost no chance of falling into evil!
