- The Song of Roland
β¦β¦
"Stop!"
But just when the scene was chaotic and noisy, a voice quieted everyone.
The crowd that had been smashing stones and shouting all stopped, and the soldiers who were facing each other put away their weapons.
"Her Majesty! Sanction the evil wizards! β
But after a while, the quiet crowd fell to their knees in front of the arriving Anna, pleading reverently.
Even the soldiers, who had put away their weapons, fell to their knees along with the people, and kept asking Anna for it.
This sudden change made Anna, who was seriously injured, frown.
She knew that Frey did not represent evil, but a force that belonged to their side.
But seeing almost all the populace and half of the soldiers on their knees begging her to sanction Frey, Anna had a hard time.
After a moment's hesitation, Anna was no longer swayed this time, and made the decision that Frey was not guilty, and also decided to let Frey take over her as the head of the Crusaders on the spot.
"What! How can this be! Not only are there no sanctions against wizards! And to give him such an important position! β
Hearing Anna's decision, everyone who had fallen to their knees stood up one after another and kept protesting, unable to accept Anna's decision to blaspheme the gods and holy places.
"No! No one can give it to this wizard! β
"As the queen of the Holy Land, she actually made such a decision! Her Majesty must have been charmed by that wizard! β
"Yes, yes, yes! It must be so! β
In the face of the unreasonable crowd, even some soldiers in military uniforms, Anna's eyes flashed with anger, and her hands clenched into fists, enduring.
"As the queen of the Holy Land! Such a decision was made! The sacrificial King Arthur would be ashamed to have a daughter like you! β
"What did you say!" In the end, the bottomless words of the crowd still made Anna unbearable, gritted her teeth, grabbed the silver spear that appeared out of thin air in one hand, and stabbed at the young man who was speaking wildly.
"Click!"
But he was grabbed by his bloodied hand and stopped in front of the young man.
"Frey?" Anna looked at the owner of the hand, and with some surprise, she saw Frey grab the spear she had stabbed out with one hand, and shook her head with some difficulty, signaling her not to.
The sharp spear pointed to the center of his eyebrows, and the young man's eyes widened in fright, and a cold sweat broke out.
This thrilling scene also made the originally noisy scene instantly quiet, like a freeze-frame picture.
Almost everyone's eyes stopped at Frey, who was holding a spear.
The eyes of the people and soldiers who had cursed Frey flashed with a hint of incredulity.
The wizard actually saved a human in a holy place?
The rescued young man was stunned for a while, hesitated for a long time, and then let go of his tangled mouth and said "thank you".
"Sorcerers will save humanity?" Many people saw this dramatic scene and all fell into thought.
There are also some people who are still thinking "impossible, this must be faked".
But everyone's emotions are generally not as excited as before.
Seeing the change in the crowd, Frey also walked to Anna's side with great difficulty, and whispered: "Your Majesty, just do what they say, I really don't want to see the interior of the Holy Land split because of me at this critical juncture when the monsters are attacking." β
After speaking, Frey looked at the crowd of people who were muttering and talking again, and the two groups of soldiers who were incompatible, and really didn't want to break up the soldiers who were originally united because of this incident.
"But it's not your fault! Why do it for them! Anna couldn't help but feel sorry for Frey.
"So what's not? What else can I do now? Besides, I'm just going to find a witch in the dungeon to replenish my mana, so let's stop by. Frey only smiled wryly.
"Okay, then you bear with me, I'll be a little lighter."
With that, Anna waved the silver spear in her hand.
A thunderbolt also fell from the sky and struck Fred.
"Ahh
Seeing Frey let out a painful scream in the lightning strike and fell to the ground, many people who were talking about it couldn't bear it, some unconsciously covered their mouths with their hands, and some frowned.
"Wouldn't this be too much, although he is a wizard, he has saved everyone's lives before." Although his voice was weak and he was a little afraid of being ostracized by others, the young man who had been saved by Frey from Anna before spoke up.
"yes, wouldn't it be a little too much." But what the young man didn't expect was that many people heard his words and began to speak out for Frey.
"Grace will take revenge, this is really too much!"
β¦β¦
"Hmm...... But he's a wizard...... "The person who was extremely happy to watch Frey suffer the sanctions, found that more and more people around him were complaining about Frey, and his voice slowly became unconfident, and then even the courage to look at the dying Frey with a happy expression has been lost, and he lowered his head, forced by the eyes and pressure of others, and slowly began to doubt whether his previous approach and hatred were correct.
Frey, who was carried to the dungeon by Joan of Arc and Wayne, watched the originally fanatical crowd on the side slowly begin to become rational, and also showed a smile of relief.
Although this is still a bit embarrassing, a lightning strike and unwarranted infamy can make everyone slowly sober up and change their opinion of themselves, even witches, and Frey already feels that it is worth it.
After all, he is not the only one who suffers from this kind of unfair discrimination and persecution, how many witch girls are locked in the dungeon like prisoners, and how many girls who are sneaky and dare not reveal their witch identities are living a life that ordinary people can't imagine.
If he only needs to suffer a little bit of sin, so many witch girls can live a normal life in the future, Frey doesn't think it's anything.
On the contrary, I think it is a good deal.
And now at this critical juncture when a monster is crushing the city, if you can change people's perception of witches and enlist the help of witches' power, I am afraid it will be the key to reversing this unfavorable situation.
"Lord Frey, whether you are a wizard or a human, or even a monster, we will always stand by your side." Joan of Arc, who had carried Frey to the dungeon, said suddenly.
"And us." Several of the other soldiers who were escorting Frey also looked at Frey with determined eyes.
"yes, I know." Frey also replied with relief, and then closed his eyes with relief.
I just feel that all this is slowly getting better.
"Huh?" But Frey had just gone down to the dungeon to hold the monsters, but he frowned again, feeling a bad premonition.
