Chapter VII: The Unforgivable IV.

Lucilla followed Gray out of the town in a trance, although her mind was also deducing the battle that might break out at any time, but her mind was still more immersed in the aftermath of being "identified".

Why?! I didn't shout out the questions, and I asked myself over and over again in my heart. Lucila never expected ordinary people to support them, whether it was a numb cold bystander, or a gloating "dog-eat-dog show", they could endure it...... No matter how you say it, you can't stand on the side of the monster and deal with yourself.

'What are we fighting in half-demon bodies for? What is the meaning of our existence...... 'The deeper Lucila thought about it, the more unacceptable it became, and the strength of her body and mind seemed to be leaked all at once, her hands and feet were numb and weak, let alone fighting, and even normal walking was a little uncoordinated.

It wasn't until Gray, who was leading the way, stopped that Lucilla barely recovered, but her attention was immediately drawn to a metal reflection in front of her......

It is a big sword, a big sword with a familiar sword mark neatly extended, the distance between the various sword tombs seems to be exactly the same, there is not even a little weed around, and the "tombstone" as the main body is as if the owner is still alive, has been carefully maintained, so that it can still be as bright as before. All this was in stark contrast to what Lucilla had seen in the past, the scattered and desolate tombs in the wilderness bushes, and she was stunned for a moment.

'Ten ......' felt like she couldn't breathe, and Lucila immediately counted the number of these great swords.

The reason for this number is naturally because of the first few warriors that Gray will encounter in the near future...... He also moved over, and even the great sword of the warrior who appeared only in the form of a head was found in the ruined village nearby. In addition, he has been deliberately avoiding Claire recently, so he has a lot of time, as for why he did this, in addition to feeling that they should not be buried like lonely ghosts, there is also to calm the little guilt in his heart......

However, in Lucilla's eyes, these actions are like showing off the "hunters" who show off their intentions, displaying well-maintained "game specimens" in their homes. Therefore, Lucilla reacted from the shock and immediately liberated the demonic energy, but just before she was about to fight desperately, she found herself surrounded by several "weird" warriors.

"Wait! I don't want to do anything with you. Gray, who was standing on the periphery, spoke, "If you can." He has also figured out a set of ways to "communicate" with the big sword, so that he can control the initiative no matter what, so that whether it is war or peace, he can deal with it calmly.

'It's true...... Lucilla's whole body trembled with rage. It wasn't that she didn't believe Canaan's words before that, but because it sounded too bizarre, but now she saw it with her own eyes......

'Not only did he kill them, but he did this to them......

Lucilla suddenly felt the urge to kill the Awakened even if they all died together. As we all know, the sensitive and restless power of "demonic energy" is easily affected by violent emotional fluctuations. Therefore, Lucilan's demonic energy, which was still released rhythmically at first, began to soar like a loose horse in an instant, and it was not until she touched the "critical line" that she suddenly woke up and suppressed the demonic energy with all her might......

After a few tug-of-wars, Lucyra was able to regain control of the demonic energy. But when she thought of her current situation, she immediately contradictory to the "loosening" she had just suppressed/suppressed, and she also realized something even stranger, that is, this awakened person did not take the opportunity to attack her.

"I want you to feel my sincerity." Gray noticed the suspicious look on Lucila's face, and hurriedly spoke.

He didn't make a move just now, in addition to not wanting to provoke a fight, but also because Lucila's demonic energy came out of control too suddenly, and that demonic energy was obviously "qualitative" different from the NO.2 last time, which made him recall the feeling of facing "Tianyu" at the beginning...... The warrior in this state really can't touch it, because if she can't kill with one hit, it is simply "helping" her awaken in disguise.

"And I'm not your enemy."

Looking at Lucila's nun outfit, he also thought of the "secret operation" when he led the way before, and after thinking about it, there was only one reason why the organization sent Lucila to touch his bottom. But it's okay, after the organization knows that it's not easy to mess with, it shouldn't send fighters to disturb it more frequently......

"Your enemy, no, or rather, our common enemy, should be the 'organization'!"

Since letting go of NO.2 like that last time, Gray has thought a lot about it afterwards and feels that he was too hasty. Although he didn't have the ambition to defeat the organization and save all the big swords, he had to at least reveal some truth to these big swords, and even if he couldn't turn enemies into friends, he had to let them figure out who was really behind the scenes. And Lucilla, who met this time, was a very reasonable and empathetic existence in the impression of those warriors in her body. At least it's easier to communicate than last time, when the No.2 who looked like a madman.

"Don't you have any doubts? Do you really think that demons have existed since 'time immemorial'? And have you ever heard of or seen demons breeding? From the time we male warriors can be counted until now, the number of demons has not decreased in the slightest. Everything shows that the "demon" is created, just like you and me......"

Guerrero listed one fact after another, but you can see Lucila's expression, although she listened and thought, but it was more of the kind of forbearance before waiting for an opportunity. This made Gray think for a moment, and began to break the news, "Don't compare me to those awakened people, those monsters whose brains are ruined by appetite!" I can say that I came from another world, and my will still belongs to humanity! I know everything about this world! I know the future of the world! I ......"

This bombshell-like remark finally worked, and finally Lucila's expression changed greatly, but after only a few seconds, she looked at Gray's eyes, just like when Gray told Claire what the universe was, Claire looked at herself, not at the eyes of normal people anyway...... This forced Gray to stop the topic immediately.

"Anyway, that's all I have to say, I hope you'll think about it. Now I'm going back, so please,"

Gray said and began to take small steps backwards, and only after retreating far enough distance did he turn around, and after just a few steps he seemed to remember something, "What if... If you want to break away from the "organization", you can join me...... I mean, I'd love to help you. ”

However, when he saw Lucila's unmoved expression, he knew that this "rebellion" was purely self-inflicted, so he shook his head in embarrassment and jumped away, and at the same time removed the "corpse concubine" who surrounded Lucilla.

“……”

Lucila watched the surrounding "companions" disappear with the wind, sensing the demonic aura of the awakened getting farther and farther away, she couldn't believe that this was true, she casually took off the nun headscarf she was wearing, held it tightly in her hand, and looked at the town of Plainsville, located in the basin, in the direction of the awakened, her expression struggled for a long time, and finally turned away in despair.

Lucilla would love to catch up with Gray and fight to the death, but she knew very well that if the monster only controlled the other "warriors", she still had a slight chance of winning, but it held a trump card called "Sistina", which was enough to wipe out all her advantages......

'Therefore you must not be emotional, if you even fall into its hands, then ......'

In addition, Lucilla's emotions are far less determined than they appear in front of Gray, what the Awakened said, she knows, maybe many warriors know, but they don't want to think deeply, just because "for the sake of humanity, slaying demons and demons" may be their only reason for existence......

Now that everything has been picked out by that monster, what to do...... Do you continue to deceive yourself like this...... Lucilla suddenly stopped, raised her head high, and stared directly at the dazzling sun with her silver eyes, as if begging "Rabona" to give her guidance, but her mind was a mess, constantly recalling the scene when she was "betrayed" by humans to the awakened......

'Wake up, think back, because it won't be long before the world will be gray......

Above the sky, a dark cloud drifted over and obscured the sun, which made Lucilla's originally slightly squinted eyes widen a little, and made her think a lot: the ability of the Awakened, and the crazy words it claimed to come from another world, the recent trip to the Holy Capital, the vivid and impactful mural of the gods and demons slaying the demons in the Rabona Cathedral, at this time it became even more vivid, as if there was life and sound, and she was like she had really returned to the distant past, watching this epic battle......

"Demons don't come from under our feet." Lucyra lowered her head and groaned, gritting her hands on the serpentine pillar-shaped metal pendant on her chest, and hissing through gritted teeth, "-It's from a foreign land!" ”

…………

There is also a small hotel in the village of Piro, which looks a little more deserted than the small hotel in the town of Plansville. The innkeeper, at first glance, was an uncle with a bald head and a small strand of hair, looking at the ceiling above him with a sad face. Now in the most expensive and "best" guest room on the second floor, there are two women who are perfect in terms of figure, appearance, and temperament, and the only thing that is unacceptable is the big sword behind them......

Leto, who was only wearing a straitjacket, leaned against the head of the bed, although he was holding a book in his hand to read, but he couldn't read a word, just because of the burning gaze from the opposite side, even if there was a book in the way, it still made her uncomfortable. After enduring it for a while, Leto finally gave out his breath and slammed the book to his side, not to be outdone, and looked at the opposite "traitor NO,2" who was sitting on the ground with his back to the big sword.

Leto thinks he has a better temper, but he has been "accompanied" by Canaan until now, and he is a little unbearable, because Canaan's stalking is "staring" in the real sense, and his eyes don't turn for a moment, walking there and there, and he doesn't even seem to blink his eyes.

“……”

Leto glared at Canaan for a long time, and after realizing the fact that he couldn't beat Canaan again, he sighed in frustration, got out of bed and walked towards the cubicle in the room. But as soon as his hand touched the doorknob, he felt that Canaan was already following him like a shadow. Leto rolled his eyes, kicked the door unbearably, turned to look at Canaan, and asked with a smile full of anger but forced to calm down: "Sister, I want to go to the toilet, do you want to come in and help me wipe my ass?" ”

After Leto finished speaking, she strode in angrily, but then she lost her temper at all, because Canaan still followed up unrelentingly.
