Chapter 110: Dragon Demon (2)
Yuna didn't know how long it had been since she had believed in anything else, especially since she had believed in a human for a long time. The funny thing is that as a human being, Yuna doesn't believe in humans the most.
Of course, there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no hate for no reason. For as long as Yuna can remember, she said that the injustices and even abuses she received often came from humans, the kind of humans who came from the same ancestors as her, and had the same blood in their bodies.
After Yuna's trust was wasted again and again, she finally chose to hide herself and arm herself. And kill all the humans who dared to squander her trust, one after another. Although she lost a lot for revenge at the beginning, even her body was ruthlessly destroyed again and again. But fortunately, she escaped every time. Of course, her luck is the misfortune of her targets, no, those who killed her were killed without exception. Speaking of which, a large part of his current status is due to those who were killed by her.
It is undoubtedly a very sad thing to be a human being who does not believe in his own kind. But why doesn't she trust her own kind? If you really want to dig into the cause of this question, then you will find that the answer to this question itself is extremely pathetic.
It's just that now it seems that Yuna should change her perspective on humanity again. She didn't know what the name of the beautiful and young human girl in front of her was, but she could feel that the smile on her face was genuine.
In this way, Yuna was taken by the female shopkeeper into her own province and came to the courtyard of the mansion next to the street not far away. Judging from the appearance of this official residence alone, it is basically indistinguishable from the other similar official residences on the street. But when she walked in again, Yuna realized that there was something else. As with the structure of other large official residences on this street, the buildings inside are basically open as soon as you enter the main entrance. This is due to the fact that the Danmos Empire had a uniform arrangement for the appearance of the buildings in the city. For example, if you are on the same street, then the exterior color of the buildings on the whole street must be the same, and even the buildings inside must at least have similar outlines. If Qi Tianci was present, he would definitely feel that such a situation was very familiar. Because this is obviously the image project of the era in which Qi Tianci lived before.
It's just that the building that the female shopkeeper brought Yuna to is more special. After the shopkeeper took Yuna into a carriage, the two of them drove on the carriage, which was not bumpy at all, for ten minutes, until they came close to the outer city, and then they stopped in front of a very remote manor.
This is not so much a manor as a large mansion. As in the big cities, the mansion was protected on all four sides by the city walls. The only difference is that only part of the manor's walls are made of stone, while the rest are made of clay and wood. The walls of the city are made of extremely strong stone, and even the walls of the capital of the Danmos Empire are strengthened by special magicians with magic. Ironically, however, the courageous line of defense, which is now the first line of defense against foreign enemies, did not use such technology. I don't know if this was because the regent was disgusted with the duke's instructions, or if the old emperor didn't intend to do it at all. Anyway, he's a complete puppet now, and his empire is about to fall, so why should he care about such a small thing?
The two got out of the car at the door of the mansion, and then the servants inside quickly opened the door. Led by the servants, the two wandered through the tree-lined paths covered by various flower beds.
Yuna let herself be led by the female shopkeeper and stared blankly at her surroundings. It can be said that this is a completely green world, except for the path, everything else is decorated with green. Green gardens can be found everywhere, creepers have already climbed all over the facades, and even the railings of the gate are covered with green plants.
"What do you think, ma'am?"
"It's beautiful, it's beautiful. Yuna replied truthfully that she really liked the sight too much. If you stand on a nearby hill and look at it from a distance, you will even think that it is a very beautiful painting. After a while, Yuna continued, "Also, call me Yuna. ”
The shopkeeper was very happy: "Yuna, Yuna. By the way, I haven't introduced my name to you, I'm called... ”
"Say no more. Yuna shook her head, "You still don't tell me your name." ”
"Why? Yuna. The shopkeeper looked extremely puzzled: "Why don't you want to know my name, don't you think I'm also your friend?"
"It's hard to be my friend. Yuna stared at the smiling shopkeeper, trying to see a hint of hypocrisy in her smile, but Yuna was disappointed. Because even if her life was threatened just now, the female shopkeeper still didn't have any fear in her heart, and this time, there was no exception at all. "And, for your own safety, you still don't tell me your name. I'm talking about life safety. Although this was a warning word, Yuna did not have the same strong killing intent as before. Just now, if Yuna hadn't temporarily used her ability to isolate herself from the location of the female shopkeeper, Yuna's murderous intent at that time might have scared away an entire street. However, this point made Yuna even more strange, why in the face of such a strong killing intent, this female shopkeeper did not collapse because of this. Yuna remembers very clearly that the female shopkeeper was just a little scared and broke out in a cold sweat.
After arriving at the pavilion Yuna had mentioned, Yuna sat down on the stone table in the middle. The shopkeeper also laughed a little and sat down on one of the four stone benches next to the stone table. "Is this your family's mansion?" Yuna asked lightly, glancing at the still beautiful scenery around her.
"No, it's not. The shopkeeper smiled and shook her head: "This is one of my homes, but because this is a suburb, I don't usually live here." But it's definitely one of the best I've ever had. The others are in the hustle and bustle of the city, and the traffic is busy, so it is very noisy. ”
Yuna said with some envy: "Yes, that's good." If I had a family like yours, I probably wouldn't have had that kind of experience, and I wouldn't have come down this path. ”
"Yuna, experience, what kind of experience are you talking about?"
Yuna subconsciously became very angry. Because in Yuna's heart, what she experienced before has always been her avoidance. If someone inadvertently brings it up, Yuna will not hesitate to kill the person who made her remember the painful past. But this time, Yuna just frowned and glanced at the female shopkeeper. And the female shopkeeper also obviously reacted that she seemed to have asked the wrong question, so she hurriedly apologized: "Ah, I'm sorry, Yuna. I don't know this question I shouldn't ask. ”
"It's okay, you've already asked, I can't let you take this question back. Yuna stroked her windswept hair and recalled, "I never met my parents. When I was four or five years old, I was raped by an adopted person, but then when I killed that person, she told me that I was not a virgin at that time. Later, I was robbed and taken as a sex slave, and for the next ten years, I didn't have a good life. ”
"And now?"
"Now?" Yuna looked back at the shopkeeper who was almost in tears, and looked at her helplessly. Yuna only understated her past experience, but the female shopkeeper already had such emotions. Yuna wondered in her heart, how did this female shopkeeper manage such a large family property? If she didn't rely on her own family power to do this, Yuna really didn't believe it. But the truth is that the other side of this extremely sentimental woman is a strong woman with a resolute style and extremely strong strength. Perhaps, this is the two sides of a person. Of course, that's all for later. After enduring it for a while, Yuna said to the female shopkeeper with a smile: "Now, I am an apostle, and an apostle of extremely high status. Can you believe it?" Yuna burst out laughing, probing the female shopkeeper's reaction. If anything was wrong with her, Yuna would never hesitate to slaughter the entire manor without hesitation.
Surprisingly, however, the female shopkeeper didn't giggle in order to echo Yuna's laugh. Instead, he nodded solemnly: "Well, Yuna, I believe." ”
This time, Yuna's killing intent spread again. Yuna originally thought it was a joke, but it was taken seriously by the female shopkeeper. The ferocity of Yuna's murderous intent made their hair rise automatically without wind, and even a few birds nearby were scared to death and fell to the ground. "Say, why do you believe this. Yuna wanted to repeat her old trick and stuck the female shopkeeper's neck, but after hesitating, she still didn't move.
The female shopkeeper also clearly felt such a killing intent, but her mood still did not fluctuate at all. She said sincerely: "Because, you are my friend." But I confess, I was a little surprised to learn that you were an apostle. ”
Surprised? Yuna was speechless, what point did the female shopkeeper's expression and posture reflect surprise? "You're not afraid of me? You still dare to think I'm your friend?"
"Why don't you dare, just because you are now an apostle?"
"As I said, I am no ordinary apostle. In the whole apostolic world, I am second only to the Mourner. ”
"Lord Mourner?" It was obvious that the shopkeeper was extremely unfamiliar with this title, "Yuna, your identity has no meaning to me. And no matter who you are, you're my friend. ”
"Even if I would set foot on the entire Damos Empire and kill all the people in this country, even you will be without the slightest exception, just like the Kingdom of Magellan. Yuna sneered, "Before you decide if I'm your friend or not, I'll tell you that the reason why I want the slave girl you are talking about is because I need to train her to be a terrifying killer." Think about it, how much of a storm can a dragon demon set off in this world?"
"It's okay?" said the shopkeeper innocently, "I believe that you will not be able to break through the defense of courage, and even if you occupy this country, we can move our family when you occupy the empire." ”
"Migration, what is the use of migration? Our target is the whole continent. ”
"There are many islands in the southern part of the empire, and it just so happens that we also have our own strength on several islands. Our family's home base is on one of these islands. ”
Well, now Yuna is served. "But do you still want me to buy this dragon demon now?"
"Yuna, not to buy it. The shopkeeper corrected, "I didn't buy it, I gave it to you." I will guarantee that you will not be hindered in the process of buying the Dragon Demon. Even if you only give out one silver coin, you can take it. ”
"Why are you doing this, don't you realize that by doing this, you are simply helping us destroy this human world?"
"No, it's not. The shopkeeper smiled faintly: "Yuna, I don't care much about the future of this country. The reason why I want you to buy this dragon demon is because she is my friend. I don't want her to be abused in any way. As for whether she will destroy the entire human world, I don't think so. Because in this world, only human beings can destroy human beings. ”
Only humans can destroy humanity, and Yuna is all too familiar with this phrase. Because Yuna didn't just take this sentence as a human motto, no wonder she felt so attached to this female shopkeeper, it seems that it was not for nothing. "Okay. Yuna said, "This empire will definitely perish." However, I will tell you in advance before we storm the city. You also have time to escape from this country, this continent. ”
