Sulfona was silent, and it dawned on her that it might really be a mistake for a warrior to fight a demon. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is the reigning big sword is only a few dozen people, the number of demons is difficult to count, even if these dozens of people vomit blood tired, they can't completely avoid the tragedy. If humans could have their own way of fighting and fighting demons on their own, maybe the situation would be much different. Perhaps Tifa was right in his thinking, the presence of warriors hindered the development of humanity. If the warriors didn't exist, humans would hunt demons at risk of casualties and study their weaknesses. At that time, it may be possible to solve this problem once and for all.

Alik, however, has a different view on the issue.

"Your friend thinks that the great sword is an obstacle to humanity's fight against demons - this idea is new, but it's not necessarily true. "First of all, if it weren't for your great sword, I think humanity might have collapsed." The church collapsed, the faith was missing, the holy city was breached, and the people's villages were no longer connected with each other - it was a time when humanity fought against demons. The existence of the greatsword at least perpetuates the spark of human civilization. Besides, if the human army really has weapons against the demons, then it must be a terrible and brutal war. Humans and demons will be swept into the millstone, all crushed into flesh and blood, and at that time, perhaps all humans and demons on the road will be extinct. ”

Sulfona was stunned for a moment, she thought of the war that took place in the north. The silver king of the demons, Isli of the North leads his demons and warriors in fierce battles. At that time, the organization was defeated, losing six fighters, and only No.3 was seriously wounded and retreated. From the battle report, Sulfona couldn't see how tragic this war was, but if it was a human being fighting against a demon, then a human with the same combat strength as these six warriors would need to die. What a terrifying number it would be, Sulfur couldn't have imagined.

"So Tifa is still wrong?"

"I don't know, I'm used to maintaining my current stability. Alik shrugged, "You've heard about me. ”

Sulfona was stunned and nodded awkwardly.

"I, my decision may not be the most correct. Your friend's ideas are dangerous, but if she really succeeds in solving the demon problem, then she is a hero and a saint. Later generations will say that the man received the oracle of the twin goddesses in a dream. The future is still chaotic and unknowable, and we mortals can only make our own choices. On two divergent paths, we are all confused children. ”

Sulfur subconsciously looked at her big sword, the pale golden light emitted by the sword mark on the sword, which was a motto to Sulfona. As Sulfona became unable to contain her irritability, the sword became more and more strange. While slashing the demons, Sulfona even felt that the sword was sucking the blood of the demons. Sulfona, who was always furious, was using the sword, and she felt the metal in her hand laugh wildly. As if sensing Sulfona's gaze, the greatsword pulsated slightly in Sulfona's hand like a creature. Sulfona took a deep breath, deciding to classify these as nervous hallucinations and ignore them.

"You're not walking as fast as you did last time, and I want you to show Daddy your leg strength. ”

Brewster grinned and stepped forward and patted Sulfona on the shoulder. Caught off guard and almost falling, Brewster looked at Sulfur in surprise.

"What's wrong with you?"

"It's just that the old wound has flare-up. Sulfona's face turned a little pale, "I, it doesn't matter. ”

"I've heard that the greatsword's recovery ability is almost as good as that of demons. Alik said solemnly, "If even the great sword can't heal an old wound, I'm afraid it's a very serious problem." ”

"I'm kind of an outlier among the warriors. ”

When Sulfona had said this, she was silent. Brewster thought it was strange and continued to ask, but Alik could see that Sulfur didn't seem to say much about it. So Alik changed the subject.

"Well, now that you know about me, I think I should tell you about this kid too. That's fair. Alik laughed and said, "Don't look at him as reckless and idiotic, but he's actually the son of Church Robbins, the president of the Chamber of Commerce in the Holy City." ”

"Chamber of Commerce?" said Sulfur was stunned.

"The chamber of commerce is a self-regulatory organization formed by businessmen to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of its members. Alik saw that Sulfona didn't understand, so he explained, "The Chamber of Commerce is still a novelty outside of the Holy City. The merchants were actually a vulnerable group, and the real ruling class of the Holy City was the sacrifice of the Church and the nobility that existed in the Holy City from the beginning of its construction. The people of the Church are the spiritual leaders of the people, while the nobility are the owners of all the lands in the Holy City. Although businessmen are rich, they are often oppressed by both. So the oppressed united to form the Chamber of Commerce. If someone wants to buy and sell, the chamber of commerce will organize all the merchants to stop selling to that person. At the same time, if there is price gouging or vicious competition among businessmen, the chamber of commerce will also come forward to coordinate. ”

"And the Chamber of Commerce is like a very powerful merchant?" asked Sulfur, "It sells everything, and there are many merchants under it?"

"No, the Chamber of Commerce is a non-profit organization that is not involved in trading. No one is allowed to buy or sell in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, and there is no money for trading in the organization. Alek explained, "The accounts and clerks in the Chamber of Commerce, their salaries are not high, and they are all provided by the merchants under the Chamber of Commerce. These accounts are all clearly written and released to the public annually to ensure the purity of the Chamber. If it weren't for that, the aristocracy and the church would be in trouble. ”

"But...... Brewster's father, Mr. Robbins, must have been a nobleman. ”

"That's right. If the nobles had not come forward to support the Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce would have been destroyed by the church or the council of the nobility. Brewster shrugged his shoulders and picked up the conversation, "Everyone else thinks my father is doing this to protect the weak, or to evaluate the market. But only I know that he has a crush on the interests of the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"But Mr. Alik just said that this organization is not profitable, is it?" said Sulfona, a little confused.

"Organizations don't make profits, but people can make profits. "People who don't understand business and trade will think that the most important thing for a merchant is the capital they hoard, the goods they trade, and the credibility they have accumulated over time." But the most important thing for a businessman is information. With the Chamber of Commerce in hand, it is possible to know the prices of goods in various places throughout the continent. At the same time, you can also learn a lot of first-hand information. With these, you can make a lot of money. ”

Sulfona nodded as if she didn't understand, she was very bad at math, so she didn't know anything about the things that needed to be calculated. But she knew that business and martial arts were the same. Virginia's "Demonic Harmony" and Tifa's "Demonic Traction" are good examples. "Voyeurism" is a method that allows the owner to easily understand the weakness of the enemy's demonic power and the flow of demonic power. Knowing this information, you will have a great advantage in battle.

"I don't like him in a sanctimonious place. Brewster shrugged, "He wants me to be in business, but I don't, I want to practice martial arts." The Chamber of Commerce he is in charge of is very different from the Church, and I am going to join the Knights of the Church and become a knight. Anyway, I did whatever he didn't want me to do. I'm going to do my best to keep him speechless. ”

Sulfona couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

"What are you laughing at?" Brewster snorted unhappily, "Think I'm naïve?"

"Not really, I just remembered what happened when I was a child. Sulfur suppressed a smile, and the expression on her face became complicated, "There was once someone who wanted to teach me swordsmanship, but I didn't want to learn her swordsmanship. To this day, I'm using the swordsmanship she taught me. After I became the Great Sword, I often wanted to find her, but I was afraid that the way I was now would disappoint her. Isn't it ridiculous?"

"So you've had times when you've been rebellious?"

Brewster smiled and patted Sulfona on the shoulder. Sulfona was a little uncomfortable with his shoulder-to-shoulder attitude, but she was not disgusted. She realized that she had become friends with the two knights at some point. For warriors, human friends are extremely rare and precious.

"Miss Sulfona is far less rebellious than you. Alik shook his head and said helplessly, "Who would have thought that you would sneak out of the house alone and go on a mission with me." When we return to the Holy City, I'm afraid I'll have to explain to the characters above, and maybe I'll have to trouble the Holy Maiden. You are so ignorant, this mission is so dangerous, you actually came here without permission. I really regret telling you about my mission. ”

"I'm just an ordinary knight, and this is just my apprenticeship. Brewster stiffened his neck and said, "It stands to reason that knights should be rewarded for exceeding the standard for completing the task." ”

"But you're no ordinary knight, you're ......"

Alik was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly paused. Sulfona shook her head at the old knight.

"Don't worry, just a big cat that gets lost. ”

"Big cat?"

Brewster didn't know why, but he soon saw the big cat. Out of the woods came a half-man-tall leopard, with an angular head, smooth and soft fur, strong muscles, and a slightly curly whip tail. Brewster was taken aback, and the beast of the jungle easily aroused the fear that lived in the hearts of humans. The young knight stiffened, and he drew his sword with a swipe on the ground, and the leopard shrugged his powerful back. Sulfona grabbed Brewster's hand holding the sword.

"Don't scare it, it just wants to pass through here. ”

Brewster calmed down a little. On closer inspection, the cheetah looked at Sulfur with amber eyes, and trembled slightly. Then, it crouched slightly and let out a low-powered roar, passing past several people like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, the cheetah disappeared without a trace, and Sulfona felt a little pity.

"This big cat is even more scared than you, and you shouldn't scare it away. ”

"That's the big cat to you, it's the devil to me. Ever since I was a kid, I've been scared of this kind of stuff. I wish it had left sooner. Brewster stumbled back into the scabbard, "Would you like that kind of thing?"

"I like animals. After I became a warrior, animals were no longer close to me. Sulfona shrugged her shoulders and showed a look of regret, "Don't you think it's strange that we've met almost no other animals except this big cat......"

Before she could finish her sentence, another wild boar rushed by. The boar was fat and big, but it shook off the fat on its body and ran as if it were flying, not much slower than the leopard. It slammed into a tree and grazed past Sulfona. A monkey also rushed next to Alex, and the old knight hurriedly bent down to prevent Helois, who was carrying on his back, from being frightened. Brewster hadn't had any animals running here, but his head had a puddle of bird droppings.

"Didn't you say no animal would come near you?" said Brewster, trying to clean himself from nausea.

"I don't know ...... either"

"Kids, I think we're in trouble. Alik took out his two-handed battle axe with a serious face, "There is a dangerous aura on the big sword, so the beast does not dare to approach...... Unless they encounter something more dangerous than a greatsword. ”
