Chapter Seventy-Four: The Long Sword XIII

"Is that you?"

Brewster and Alik came at the curry, feeling that Sulfur was in danger. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Alik's weapon was a two-handed tomahawk, which was powerful but inconvenient, so Brewster ran over alone. However, he never dreamed that such a scene would be in front of him. Standing above the inhumanoid demon was a shadow that swayed in the moonlight. If it weren't for the knight's keen sense of smell telling Brewster that this man was his newfound greatsword, he would have thought it was a demon from a nightmare.

"Ha, it's you, you saw it, right? Why, are you surprised?"

Brewster discovers that Sulfona is in a state of unusual euphoria.

"This is the real me, are you scared?"

The anger in her heart was rekindled by Brewster's presence, and she roared and sped away at Brewster. The knight's light armor was no thicker than paper to Sulfona, and the sword Brewster held in his hand was more like a toy. She wanted to tear the man to shreds, just like the demons she had killed. Sulfona swung her fist through the air like a meteor.

Brewster did not resist, and of course he was powerless to resist. He was intimidated by Sulfona's tyrannical behavior, and he realized how dangerous it was for him to offend Sulfona. Alek's words echoed in Brewster's ears again. Daddy was right, it was no more difficult for Thanh to kill him than it was to kill a chicken. Brewster suddenly felt relaxed, and he felt like he was about to be killed by Sulfona, perhaps a beautiful sudden death.

In the moonlight, Brewster saw Sulfona's eyes clearly. What appeared in front of him was a slender girl, just like the beautiful golden-eyed girl he glimpsed when he first saw Sulfur. It's just that this time, Brewster saw an irrepressible sadness and imperceptible weakness in Sulfona's eyes. Brewster had thought that Sulfura was a strong warrior with an indifferent greatsword. It wasn't until now that Brewster realized he was wrong.

Sulfona's fist didn't penetrate Brewster's body, and she tore over a row of houses around Brewsterβ€”the work of the demonic power that lingered on Stormster's fist. Sulfona frowned, her eyes returning to silver, and she suppressed the furious anger inside her. A burst of emptiness ensued. Sulfona only felt weak, and sweat was all over her forehead. Brewster had just come back from the door, and he felt his teeth chatter. Still, Brewster crouched down to check on Sulfona's condition. Sulfona clutched a plank with her hands, fiddling with a pendulum.

"Get out of me quickly, I'm in danger right now. Sulfona said as hard as she could, not knowing if she would take out Brewster's heart in the next second.

"I ......" Brewster hesitated, he wanted to leave, but he still held back, "You saved me, this may be the second time." What will happen to you if I'm gone?"

"Lose your mind, or continue to live like this. Sulfur said.

"Then I can't go. ”

"It's a very unwise choice. ”

"I should have apologized to you. Brewster pulled out the pamphlet he had copied the prayer from his bosom, "Were you like that last time? There are no old wounds at all, are they?"

"I didn't lie to you, my body hurts, but my heart is more serious. Sulfona shook her head, her dry hair scattered like a wild man, "You better give up on me, I'm already crazy." I've been crazy for a long time. ”

"No, you're normal, you've seen a lot of people more normal than me!"

Sulfona didn't have the strength to talk to Brewster, and Brewster realized it. He flickered through the prayers in his hands, trying to choose the one that best suited him. But the praise of the twin goddesses and the half-demon did not match, and Brewster only felt that his head was as big as a fight. He began to mutter dryly in a trembling voice, mixed with all the prayers he knew, his thoughts of his friends, and his guilt for Sulfona.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ The twin goddesses returned with a blessing, and the blessing came to everyone. Dinisha taught people to farm. Peaceful coexistence with everything around them, with all the animals in the wilderness, and with all the crawling and crawling things on the earth! cats no longer have to eat mice, and frogs don't have to fear pythons. All of them are all right. …… I think that in me your power is clear, not only to know the origin of all things, but also to follow the supreme actions of the sages...... So all the creatures of the world followed, the queen of all things. Crossing low-lying and steep areas, passing through straight, rugged, dense and empty water, the head, hands, wings, and feet are used together, and they rush forward desperately, or swimming, or diving, or wading, or climbing, or flying. All means were exhausted, and a deafening commotion was finally heard...... From afar, it is just a shining star, but up close, it looks like a different world, or an island of happiness, like those famous Hespalian gardens in ancient and modern times, with happy fields, small forests and valleys of flowers. Who's living on this extremely happy island, don't ask. Because from now on, this is their paradise. ”

Brewster finished reading and found Sulfona sitting watching him. Sulfona still looked weak, but her face was a little ruddy.

"Does this prayer have a name?"

"It'......," Brewster shook his head, which he made up on the spot, "without a name." ”

"But I think it's well said. The twin goddesses came to Paradise with all the creatures of the earth. Everyone is equal and there is no difference between them. Cats don't have to eat mice anymore, so demons probably won't eat people either. Sulfona sighed and said, "But sure enough, it's a prayer." It's fake, how can the twin goddesses care about the life and death of demons. ”

"No, it will. Brewster himself felt that his words were not convincing, and he added, "I think that if the Twin Goddesses had been born as humans in our time, I don't think they would have chosen to teach humans to farm, or to become doctors." They will surely become great swords in order to protect humanity. ”

"Thank you. ”

Alik had been standing by for a while, and he didn't know exactly what was going on between Sulfona and Brewster, but he knew that the relationship between the two was improving. So the old knight chose to wait and see, until now.

"Miss Sulfona, were you attacked by a demon just now? I saw a mess here, but the demon seems to have run away. ”

Sulfona was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect that this demon would be destroyed by her to such an extent that she would have the strength to escape. The trail of blood on the ground stretched forward for a while, and then vanished without a trace. Sulfona noticed that the blood here was showing a radioactive pattern on the ground. Sulfona brain-filled the scene of the demon recovering her hind feet, then kicking the ground hard, and then spreading her elytra behind her back and flying away. Sulfur couldn't help but grab her broadsword, trying to sense the demon's location. But the indescribable sense of prostration impacted Sulfona's weak body, and she couldn't help but smile bitterly - the demonic power was used too much today.

"I can't catch up with it. However, it was not so much that I was attacked by demons, but that demons were attacked by me. "I'm sorry I hid it from you, but I'm a problematic fighter. I can't control myself when I use the power of demon flesh. It's dangerous to be around me, and I'm probably more dangerous than a demon. ”

Alik was silent for a while, even though he had a lot of experience, he didn't know that such a thing would happen to the Great Sword. The old knight turned his gaze to Brewster, who wanted to know Brewster's choice.

"Is that why you're in so much pain?"

"That's right, so I sealed my greatsword. This is used as a sign of personality switching. "Rather than being crazy all day long, I'm willing to try to keep my crazy side to the demons and my normal side to the humans." Recently, however, this line has become increasingly blurred. I almost attacked you when I wasn't holding a great sword. ”

"That's because I you off. ”

Brewster said, walking up to Sulfona and bending down. Sulfona doesn't know why.

"What is this?"

"You can choose to punch me and we'll be even. If you're no longer angry, then you're not so crazy either. ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What an interesting idea. ”

"I once had a friend who if we had a conflict, this was how it was resolved. "When there's an argument, we take turns punching each other until one of them can't stand it anymore. ”

"I guess you're beating each other to the point of flesh and blood. Sulfur said.

"Not really. Brewster shrugged, "I usually choose to punch him hard and then throw in the towel before he tries to hit me." ”

Sulfona laughed dumbly. If she had done this sooner, maybe things would have been much easier. Brewster soon regretted that he had come up with the idea. Although Sulfona had lightened her strength, the warrior's light blow was still heavy for Brewster. He lay on the ground holding his stomach for a while. Alik glanced helplessly at Brewster.

"Anyway, we need the help of the Great Sword, and it's dangerous for us here. "I want to bring the child we rescued back to the Holy City, she may know what happened." ”

"I've got a guess about what's going on here. "I have to report this to my seniors, I suspect that someone may be breeding demons." The tragic situation here is caused by someone deliberately casting these demons. ”

"Raise demons!" Brewster opened his mouth in surprise, "why would anyone do such a thing?"

"I don't know. But I guess there are still a lot of demons here, and we need to get to safety as soon as possible. The demon has fled, but he will surely come back for revenge. I may not be able to fight it and protect you at the same time. Maybe it's a good idea to leave overnight. ”

Note: The prayer is a nonsense, adapted from Milton's Paradise Lost.
