Chapter 478: Bewitchment and Revenge
Being young means impulsive, it means being simple, it means being easily seduced.
Rhea has the heart to take revenge on the Demon King, so he must find a way to gather all the power he can gather! A young warrior monk who can inflict heavy damage on himself has naturally become an object that can be wooed in Queen Rhea's heart. Therefore, after the battle, Queen Rhea did not blame Green for being seriously injured, but invited Green to drink with him very warmly.
Queen Rhea wants to woo Green, and Green also wants to ask Queen Rhea about her "bloodline". Grimm once transformed Queen Rhea into a demon clan and imprisoned her in the Demon King City, but then Green was assassinated and Queen Rhea disappeared - in the chaos at the time, no one knew whether Queen Rhea died in the spatial collapse or fled. But now, when Grimm meets Queen Rhea by chance in a tavern in the Dwarven Kingdom, and discovers that Queen Rhea's blood color has changed from purple to red, it's hard not to make Grimm think about it. Therefore, when Queen Rhea invited Green, Green also accepted Queen Rhea's invitation very happily.
In front of the tavern bar, the tavern owner placed two cheap glasses of ale in front of Green and Queen Rhea.
"Doesn't this Miss Mia Morasuna Dani Shelly Hong really need a drink?" Queen Rhea looked at Chikage, who was sitting next to Grimm.
Green blinked and looked at Queen Rhea in surprise: "You can actually remember that long and awkward name?" ”
"It's a matter of course to remember someone's name, isn't it?" Queen Rhea gracefully raised her glass and saluted Green, "Mr. Dharabun Bandib Dobiruon, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
A subtle look appeared on Green's face: "Hmm...... You still call me 'the brave'. That name is too long to call. ”
It's fun to talk about yourself, but I've really heard someone call you that...... Green was worried that he would burst out laughing.
Queen Rhea raised her eyebrows: "Okay." Mr. Brave. You can also call me 'The Avenger'. ”
"Alright, Avenger Queen." Green raised his glass and saluted the Avenger Miss in front of him, who was suspected to be Queen Rhea, "It's a pleasure to meet you." ”
After touching the glass with Queen Rhea, Green took a sip of the ale, and then took the initiative to open the conversation.
"Lady Avenger, what happened to you after you disappeared in the first place, and why are you here? Can you tell me about it? Green is intrigued by the story of Queen Rhea's "disappearance".
Queen Rhea took the wine glass and shook it, her eyes were confused: "It's nothing." Since I left Northbird, I've been traveling around researching about the demons and their kings. This time, I went to the Flame Throne, first, for the Flame Temple's books, and secondly, to ask the Dwarven King to help forge a weapon. What about you? What are you doing at the Throne of Fire? ”
"I also want a weapon that works for me, so I'd like to try my luck at the Flame Throne and see if I can get the Dwarven King to help me build a powerful weapon."
Queen Rhea looked at Green with a strange expression: "The Dwarf King is good at smelting, if you want a staff, you should go to the Witch League or the Crescent City-State." ”
"The staff is too fragile or something. I wanted a sturdy weapon. Green shrugged, "Let's talk about you." You said you were investigating the demons and the king of the demons, so did you investigate anything? ”
"I did find something." Queen Rhea's fingers slid gently over the glass.
"Can you say that?" Green asked curiously.
"Oh~ Mr. Brave, it took me a lot of effort to get this information." Queen Rhea lowered her glass and stared at Green, "Of course, if you're willing to fight the demons with me, I don't mind sharing the information in my hand with you. ”
Green thought for a moment: "Forget about fighting demons or something." I want to live a few more years. ”
Queen Rhea: "I've heard that warrior monks are brave and righteous people. ”
"I'm a mage!" Green couldn't help but correct, "As a mage, rationally judging the strength of the two sides is the most basic ability. ”
"It's a shame. It seems that you are not as brave as your name. "Queen Rhea tried to provoke Green with a provocative technique. But unfortunately, her agitation method was completely used to the wrong target.
"Courage is not the same as recklessness. The demons have a population of hundreds of thousands, and with Mona, monsters, and other messes, the devil knows how many of them there are. And other demons didn't do anything harmful, if it weren't for the Northboy Kingdom taking the initiative to declare war, those Mona might still be huddled in the Miracle Canyon and living their own little life until now. Green scoffed, "It seems to me that the fall of the Kingdom of Northbod was entirely self-inflicted. ”
"Did you ask for it?" A wry smile appeared on Queen Rhea's face, "Mr. Brave, what do you think of the demons?" ”
"Hmm...... A newborn race that feels a bit like a vampire among the undead. Although it may not be as good as a vampire in terms of physical fitness, it does not have the fatal weaknesses of a vampire. ”
"Vampires?" Queen Rhea nodded, "Demons and vampires are a bit alike. Eternal life, expanding the race through bloodline, high-level vampires have a strong suppressive ability against low-level vampires, and so on. These abilities are easily reminiscent of vampires. If the demons and vampires are left alone, the world will be destroyed sooner or later! ”
"Huh?" Green's eyes widened, "Why is the world destroyed?" "Am I so dangerous?
"The demons have expanded their race by absorbing creatures from other races. If you leave them alone and let them expand, then they will spread like a plague, and eventually the human race will disappear completely. The fall of the Kingdom of Norsbod illustrates this point well. The kingdom of Norsbod was not destroyed by war, but by the betrayal of mankind! When the 'plague' called the demon clan corrupts the human nobility, the kingdom will soon collapse. ”
Hearing Queen Rhea's words, Green couldn't help frowning.
"In the face of the demons, we have to declare war. If war had been declared a little later, there would have been more corrupted nobles. If most of the nobles of the kingdom are corrupted by the demons, then we will not even have a chance to war, and we will be destroyed. ”
Greene: "All of this you said was speculation. It is also possible that the demons have been living their own small lives in the Miracle Canyon, ignoring the strife of the outside world. ”
"It's impossible." Queen Rhea spread her hands, "Although they stayed in Miracle Canyon at the time, no one can guarantee that those demons will not suddenly leave Miracle Canyon one day and launch a surprise attack. ”
"Uh......" Green was speechless, "although I don't think it's right to 'suspect guilt,' your fears do have a point. ”
Hearing Green's words, a smile appeared on Queen Rhea's face: "Yes, so it is necessary to destroy the demons. Otherwise, sooner or later, the world will be destroyed! ”
"It's an exaggeration to say that the world is destroying or something. At most, everyone has become a demon. Although I don't want to become a woman, if it's to save my life, I probably won't care so much. ”
Green's "timid" speech made Queen Rhea frown: "The upper demon clan has absolute power over the lower demon clan, if the demon clan rules the world, you and I will become slaves!" Are you willing to give your life and death to someone else's complete control? ”
Hearing Queen Rhea's words, Green raised his eyebrows.
Green thought for a moment, and his expression slowly became solemn: "'If I hadn't seen the light, I could have endured the darkness. Most people wouldn't want to do that. ”
"Yes. If the demons rule the world, you and I will become the lowest slaves, and under the oppression of the high-level demons, we will live a bleak life like slaves. "Queen Rhea painted a very cruel picture.
"I have to admit that your rhetoric is very tempting. But what can a few of us do? Green looked at Queen Rhea suspiciously, "You don't think that just a few people can destroy the demons, do you?" ”
"It's impossible to destroy the Demon Clan, but if it's just to kill the Demon King, there's still a great possibility. Isn't it? ”
Green:???
Girl, am I so hated?
Seeing Green's "black question mark" expression, Queen Rhea thought for a moment and slowly explained: "All countries are afraid of the power of the demon king, so they are unwilling to declare war with the demons. After all, it is safer than a legendary powerhouse who hides in the shadows and is bent on assassination, or a legendary powerhouse who stands on the bright side. But once the Demon King dies, those nobles who were originally afraid of the Demon King's strength may end up carving up the territory of the Demon Clan at any time! ”
"Hmm......" Green stared at the Queen of Vengeance in front of him, frowning slightly, "Could it be that this war between elves and demons was actually provoked by you behind your back?" ”
"Elves aren't stupid." Queen Rhea glanced at the tavernkeeper who was wiping his glass, "I have some friendship with the Fairy Forest, but it's not enough for them to fight for me. ”
Green looked at Queen Rhea with a suspicious face: "You went to the Flame Throne, did you plan to persuade the dwarves to declare war on the demons?" ”
"You look down on me too much." Queen Rhea shook her head, "I went to the Flame Throne this time just to find the Dwarven King to craft weapons. ”
"Weapons? What kind of weapons do you need to make a special trip? Green looked at Queen Rhea curiously.
"Like you, I want to build a weapon that works for me." Queen Rhea shrugged, "I have some friendship with the Dwarven King, and I think he should have a good chance of agreeing to my request." ”
Once the seeds of doubt have sprouted, they are indelible. Although Queen Rhea denied Green's speculation, Green was skeptical.
Green looked at Queen Rhea with suspicious eyes. Green suspects that this woman's weaponry is just an excuse, and that tricking the Dwarf King into declaring war on the demons is her real purpose!
Green felt that perhaps he should slaughter her, lest the "Queen of Vengeance" cause trouble for herself.
