Chapter 222: Prophecy
But the people present obviously did not understand Leon's behavior, and there was a lot of discussion, at this time Barbara suddenly said loudly: "Well done, the credit for this is ours!"
There was an uproar in the field, and the eyes of the people who looked at Leon were full of contempt, it turned out that he was just a credit grab......
But Josephine obviously didn't think so, but she didn't say anything, and lowered her voice and said: "Adventurer, your behavior is a steal of merit, but the point of what you say, no matter how you cover it up, you are treason!"
Barbara, who was behind Leon, stood up: "This knight, what you said is not right, Leon clearly killed this demon with his own hands, how can it be considered treason?"
At the same time, Barbara lowered her voice and forced Leon who wanted to speak back: "You just stop, no one can protect you if you make any more trouble." Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
That being said, Barbara didn't mean to blame it in the slightest, or that all of this happened with the acquiescence of Barbara and Doron, who knew Leon, a companion who traveled together, and who became a companion because of the "smell of the same thing".
Josephine was about to speak, when suddenly, another knight left the team and walked out, and it was obviously unruly to leave the team at such a time, but Josephine did not speak, but took control of his horse and walked back a little, giving up his position to the knight.
Because the knight was wearing a covered helmet, his face could not be seen, and only his voice could be heard as an old man's.
"Adventurer, you have to know that this demon soldier may have killed a lot of human soldiers on the battlefield, if you help him like this, won't you let those soldiers who sacrificed to protect the continent die blindly?"
Leon shook his head: "Old man, that's not what I said, I killed him with this knife, just because he also killed humans, and the blood debt was repaid, and that was enough, as for the rest, then let me be happy." ”
Leon's words obviously angered Josephine on the side, but the middle-aged knight waved his hand, signaled Josephine not to move, and spoke again: "It is said that the hearts of non-my race must be different, and the demons and humans are destined mortal enemies, are you a little strong?"
Leon spoke again: "I think even if it is my race, its heart may not be the same, without the invasion of the Demon Realm, the human race itself is not fighting back and forth? ”
The old knight looked interested, and threw out a question again: "But no matter how much the war between humans is fought, it still sheds the same blood, and eventually they will understand each other and usher in peace, just like the current Doma Empire, and humans and demons are destined to die." ”
Leon scratched his head: "Why do humans and demons have to rest until death?"
This sentence was like a bomb, even Barbara and Doron around Leon were stunned, this is a big rebellion, fortunately, the surrounding onlookers have gradually dispersed, not many people heard Leon's words, otherwise Leon might be torn to pieces by the angry crowd!
But this sentence angered the surrounding soldiers to the maximum, including Josephine, the soldiers were almost furious, and their eyes were almost bursting with anger, and no one had any objection to this kind of rebellious words even if they were sentenced to death.
The field suddenly fell into an eerie silence, Barbara's eyes inadvertently skimmed around, while cursing Leon to speak without thinking, while investigating possible escape routes, and Doron's hand was on the hilt of the sword, intentionally or unintentionally, for him, it was just a big battle, there was nothing to be afraid of.
"Hahaha!"
But it was the old knight who broke the silence, and he laughed as if he had heard some joke, and the laughter lasted for a long time, and the people around him laughed inexplicably.
At last, the laughter stopped, and the old knight took off his helmet, revealing a face full of spirit, and a momentum that was not angry but mighty rushed towards him.
"Adventurer, are you interested in coming to work in my palace?"
※※※
Time back to the present, Leon is also embarrassed, from that moment on, his life really embarked on a different path, that is, during that time, he met Josephine and met many people, until he finally became a brave man.
The old king also woke up from his memories and said thoughtfully: "Leon, why do you think I chose you in the first place?"
"Isn't that because of that sentence?"
The old king smiled and said: "Your words, if you put it in the ears of ordinary people, it is the attribute of "Holy Mother" that is spurned by thousands of people, okay, don't think about things too simply, and don't underestimate the foresight of me, an old man, and don't underestimate the heritage of my Doma Empire!"
"Want to know why I chose you in the first place?"
"Yes. ”
"I won't tell you!"
Seeing Leon's deflated look, the old king smiled and said: "Forget it, I won't go around the bend with you, if you want to know the reason why I chose you in the first place, go back to see the "Battle of the King's Choice", before a certain prince comes to me with seven gold leaves, you can take those seven gold leaves to the Imperial Library, there, there is a reason for me to choose you, and there is also the tip of the iceberg of the secrets of this continent." ”
"But I want to say it again, this time in the "battle of the king's choice", I will not support you again, now I have some doubts, whether it was the right decision to choose you and give up Josephine in the first place, this time, you and Josephine, go and fight for yourself!"
"It's not like you," Leon laughed, "and the old king I know will never regret anything he has done." ”
The old king shook his head helplessly: "Then if you see the future, Josephine came to see me with the "Prophet Witch" and showed me that in the near future, the war between humans and the demon world has come to an end. ”
"Isn't that just right?" Leonqi said, the war between humans and the demon world has been going on for thousands of years, and if it can be drawn to an end in this generation, it will also be the best ending.
"But that's not the result everyone wants......" The old king looked at Leon meaningfully: "In that prophetic picture, I saw the earth cracking, the mountains and rivers collapsing, the sky was cracked one after another, and the entire continent was full of mourning, and a figure appeared above the gate of the Demon Realm, completely opening the gate of the Demon Realm, and with his order, the army of the Demon Realm with no end in sight swarmed out, and the continent was no longer the opponent of the Demon Realm......"
"And the one who opened the gate of the Demon Realm, let the people of the Demon Realm obey the orders, levitate above the nine heavens, and look down on the painful struggles of the people in the world, it is you, Leon Christine!"
"Do you still want me to believe you?"
