Chapter 35: The King's Doubts
After the six inquisitors walked out of the palace, they came to a secluded place.
Catherine took off her cloak and said to the other five, "I have done what Lord Adrien said, and you should spare this country." ”
There was a plea in her tone.
"You just have to continue to be your judge, and you don't have to worry about the rest. If the humans of the kingdom do not resist, we can spare their lives. One of the head maids said.
These words were only said to appease Catherine, after all, she still has the value of use, and it is up to their king to kill the commoners or not.
They are only the most faithful servants, and they are only responsible for carrying out orders.
Hearing the maid's answer, Catherine didn't believe it all, but her heart was a little lighter.
That's all she can do for the country in her current situation.
Through contact with the five head maids, she also learned that the power possessed by the Demon King is not something that a country can compete with at all, so she also chose to give up resistance, and instead won the mercy of the Demon King by doing more things for the Demon King.
......
In the halls of the Royal Palace.
Ebol's expression was hideous, and he stood up, his magic bursting, and his whole body flashed with purple light.
Franklin and Badra immediately stood before the king and said solemnly:
"Aibol, what are you going to do?"
"What am I going to do? He killed the king's guards, and instead of punishing him, you came to punish me, what do you say I'm going to do?" said Ebor frantically, pointing at Dorag.
"This is the decision of the Inquisitor, I have no right to change it, you have questioned the decision of the Inquisitor, you have committed a capital crime. The king said.
"Hahaha, the Inquisitor's decision, as the king of the Kingdom of Koenigsettian, you are cowardly, stupid, incompetent, and rely on the Inquisitor for everything, don't you have a brain yourself?"
As a gem-level exorcist, Ebol spent several years in the Kingdom of Koenigsetan, and the king assigned him large and small tasks, and he knew the king's temper.
As long as they are the kings, they seek the opinions of the judges whenever they encounter problems that cannot be solved, and they have no independent thinking at all, let alone the temperament of a leader.
He is nothing without the throne and without the help of so many gem-level exorcists.
Anyway, they had already torn their faces, so they simply said everything, and they felt more comfortable.
"I ......"
The king's eyes trembled, and for a moment he didn't know how to refute him.
Am I such a king in his heart?
"Your Majesty, Ebol is crazy, don't listen to his nonsense. Franklin leaned sideways and comforted.
Bhadra rushed straight forward, and he directly cast the reincarnation magic and transformed into a humanoid demon wolf.
Sharp claws slowly emerged from his fingertips, glowing with cold light.
Badra pounced on Ebol as if he had met a tasty prey.
Claws crossed against Ebol.
Ebol dodged and took a few steps back to dodge Bhadra's attack.
The surrounding nobles also retreated in unison, for fear that the battle between the two would hurt them.
"Okay, you forced me. ”
Ebol knew that in terms of combat effectiveness, he could only draw with Badera, but if he drew with Badera, Franklin would take the opportunity to sneak attack, and if he wanted to survive, he could only escape from here first, and even if he couldn't escape from here, he would have to let these people be buried together.
He pulled out a crystal, and a black skeleton was sealed in the center of the crystal. , his face turned fierce, and he suddenly plunged the crystal into his chest.
In an instant, a surging black magic power was released from his body, enveloping it like a silkworm cocoon.
Two seconds later, the black magic dissipated, and a five-meter-tall black skeleton appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
The black skeleton didn't have a single muscle on it, but it could constantly exhale cold air.
The temperature in the main hall dropped instantly.
Feeling the cold, the nobles shivered and their bodies kept retreating.
"It's ...... Forbidden magic!" said some of the knowledgeable nobles in horror.
Forbidden magic is the magic used by demons.
There is a difference between the structure of demons and humans, and the magic of demons that humans learn to use, the user will have a power far beyond ordinary people in a short period of time, but the price paid is also quite large.
Normally, human beings will shorten their lifespan when they use the magic of the demons, and the stronger the power obtained, the longer the shortened lifespan, and some magic needs to sacrifice the lives of others to complete, which is why the magic of the demons is listed as taboo magic by humans.
In any country, forbidden magic is strictly forbidden to learn.
If caught, the exorcist will be permanently revoked and deported from the country.
But there are always a few people who can't resist the temptation of power and secretly learn forbidden magic, such as Aibol.
Dorag looked at the black skeleton, which was similar to the Ghost Rider he had created, but only half as powerful.
It is impossible for humans to control the magic of the demons, and with the constitution of a human being, they cannot exert the full power of evil spirit magic.
Even if he only exerts half of his strength, when the magic is over, Aibol's lifespan will be greatly shortened.
Human beings can really give anything in order to gain power.
Dorag's understanding of human beings deepened at this time.
Unlike Dorag's indifference, Badra is now in a heavy mood.
Now he is no match for the Black Skull at all.
The black skeleton reached out and grabbed Bhadra with its boneless arm.
The black skeleton is large in size, but surprisingly fast.
Before Bhadra could react, he was grabbed by its huge palm
Badella's palms are propped outwards against its strong grip.
Sensing Bhadra's resistance, the black skeleton pushed upwards, lifted him up, and then threw it to the side.
Badra flew out like a ball and slammed into the walls of the palace, smashing a large hole in the wall, and his body fell to the ground, spitting blood from his mouth and fainting.
Franklin looked at Bhadra, who had passed out, and swallowed.
Suddenly, he felt a cold gaze staring at him.
When he looked up, the black skeleton was already standing in front of him.
A drop of cold sweat slipped from Franklin's forehead, and he immediately cast his magic, and his body shook, and his body turned into a shadow and burrowed into the shadow of the black skeleton.
The black skeleton's body froze, as if it had been frozen.
After waiting for a while, the black skeleton did not react, just like a sculpture.
The king breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that Mr. Franklin has brought him under control. ”
As soon as I finished thinking about it, I saw the huge body of the black skeleton move mechanically.
Little by little, the black skeleton turned sideways, then punched the shadow behind it.
"Poof!"
Franklin's body emerges from the shadows, blood spitting out of his mouth.
"Mr. Franklin!"
The king screamed.
The black skeleton turned to look at him.
The king was terrified, and his eyes were even more helpless, and he looked at the nobles standing on either side, and none of the nobles on either side was willing to come forward to save him.
This is the true face of the aristocracy.
At a time when the state was needed to be profitable, these nobles were more active than the other.
Once something happens, one retreats faster than the other.
Alas, are you going to die?
Seeing the five phalanges reaching towards him, the king closed his eyes in despair.
One second.
Two seconds.
Three seconds.
......
After more than ten seconds passed, he still did not feel the death coming, and the king slowly opened his eyes.
He saw a silver-haired boy standing in front of him, the middle finger of the black skeleton held by him with one hand, and the phalanges could not advance for another half a minute.
I saw the silver-haired young man lift it vigorously, and the huge body of the black skeleton was lifted up by him at once.
He flung it hard, and the black skeleton was thrown into the noble crowd by him.
Several nobles didn't react, and were directly pressed into meat sauce by it.
Blood poured out from under the black skeleton, making it look as if the black skeleton was bleeding.
The black skeleton stood up, first screaming at Dorag, and then began to frantically hunt down the nobles in the hall.
If you can't beat Dorag, you can simply kill a few more nobles.
Usually, these nobles look like they are high, and they feel disgusting when they look at them.
The nobility is no better than the gem-level exorcists, most of them are merchant families, and their strength is very weak.
The black skeleton can kill several with a single wave.
The screams of the nobles rang out in the hall one after another.
"Your Majesty, save ...... Help!"
"Mr. Adrian, save me!"
"No...... Don't kill me, I'll give you all my possessions. ”
......
The nobles' pleas for mercy had no effect, and Dorag stood in front of the king and watched them be dealt with one by one by the black skeletons.
"Mr. Adrian, can you save them?"
The king relented again, after all, these nobles had been of great help to the country, and the country's economy still depended on them to support it, and it was a loss for the country to be killed.
Dorag looked at the black skeleton that was chasing the nobles, stretched out his index finger and said lightly, "Razer." ”
A snake formed by thunder and lightning shot out from his fingertips and flew towards the black skeleton.
Rumble!
The black skeleton was hit by the electricity, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a pile of black scum, and even a few nobles around it were not spared, and they were burned by the electricity and fell to the ground.
After dealing with the black skeleton, Dorag came to Badra and said, "Kali. ”
"The subordinates are here. ”
"Take him back. ”
"Yes. ”
With that, Dorag left the palace without looking back.
Carrie slung Bhadera on her shoulders and followed.
The king looked at the back of Dorag leaving, and sighed in his heart, "I didn't expect him to save me in the end." ”
Those who once believed in him wanted to kill him, and those who he once wanted to destroy saved him in the end.
Is there really something wrong with my vision?
Am I really not fit to be a king?
The king's mind was deeply doubted by this incident.
