Chapter 53: Princess Lillet
"Brother Yu, this, what is this?"
The girl leaned close to me, grabbed my cloak and asked me. I couldn't help but hold my forehead, and said in my heart, sister, your brother is not omnipotent, not he knows everything!
But when I thought so in my heart, I didn't dare to say it. Doesn't that ruin my lofty image? At this time, we all looked at the demon lord, and the guy lay motionless on the ground as if he was dead, but in fact, this guy was not alive in the first place, but a spirit body pretending to be big here. Now lying in the magic array, the situation around us is unclear, and I really don't know what will happen next.
At this moment, if the real demon lord came out of the magic array, I wouldn't feel strange, the spirit body I left here was bullied by others, and if it didn't come out again, wouldn't it be going to on its neck?
But what came out was not the demon lord who I imagined might crawl out, after the magic array was completely perfected, the demon lord's spirit body slowly floated, floating in the air in our surprise, stopped at a distance of about a meter from the ground, and then, a bright light came out from the magic array, we looked carefully, and then grew our mouths in surprise.
I saw a beautiful figure appear in the center of the magic array, a wavy long hair swaying slightly with the wind, snow-white skin with delicate facial features, although it is not a beautiful woman in the city, but it is also beautiful, especially her light purple eyes, like a mandala flower blooming by the Lechuan River, exuding a fatal temptation, making it difficult to take people off their eyes.
The beauty shook her long skirt lightly and looked at us in front of her suspiciously. He looked at the neighborhood again, and finally focused his gaze on the demon lord's spirit. However, at this time, the spirit of the demon lord is still no different from death, even if it is looked at by a beautiful woman, it does not mean to stand up and show his manhood. And if you look closely, you will see that her name is still flashing on the head of the beautiful woman: Princess Lillette!
It seems that this one in front of us is the princess we are looking for this time!
After seeing the spirit of the demon lord, this long-haired princess walked over slowly, her movements were noble and elegant, and she was well-educated at first glance, unlike the white stars and silk buds in my house, although they were born noble and amazing, but they were as amazing as people!
When he came to the Demon Lord's side, he gently stretched out his little hand and placed it on the Demon Lord's spirit body, feeling the message from the spirit.
Then the princess gently lowered her hand and turned her head to look at us, her voice like a spring breeze in March, and she was intoxicated with harmony: "Brave adventurer, I knew of your arrival from the beginning. And I also know that it was you who defeated Dius, and Lillite is very grateful to the few people who helped Dius stop Dius, otherwise Dius would probably have made a big mistake! ”
Bai Mei and I looked at each other, it seemed that there were still some things we didn't understand, and we didn't even know the center of this mission from the beginning, and now that we met the princess, I thought that all our doubts could be answered by someone.
Taking a step forward, Bai Mei asked directly: "Your Royal Highness the Princess, we are also entrusted by someone to come here, if it is convenient for you, can you tell us about the Demon Lord?" Maybe we can only really help him if we find out what he has been through! ”
I didn't expect Bai Mei to deal with NPCs as well, Princess Lillette seemed to be able to stand only in the center of the magic array, as if as long as she left there, her soul would be scattered, the princess's eyes stayed on the spirit of the demon lord, but she didn't ignore us, and slowly told about the events of the year.
It's a love story that can be sung and cried, and the protagonists are, of course, the demon lord Dius and Princess Lillet. Back then, the demon lord Dius brought his people to this land to develop, and showed the war nature of the demon race, and soon conquered many surrounding tribes, posing a threat to the three-legged situation at that time. And Princess Lillette is the princess of the Gidia Empire, one of the three-legged countries, and the Gidia Empire is the closest country to the Demon Kingdom, so the surrounding residents are often invaded by the Demon Kingdom. In this regard, the Jidiya Empire once sent a large number of soldiers and generals, hoping to completely wipe out the demon kingdom. However, although the number of people in the demon kingdom is small, they are all brave and good at fighting, and even the women of the demon kingdom can go into battle to kill the enemy. The defeat of the Great Army left the Gidia Empire in a gap in military deployment, so much so that the other two countries were eyeing each other.
At this time, in the slaughtered village, the demon lord Dius met the kind and beautiful Princess Lillet, fell in love with her at first sight, and finally ordered his people not to harass the Gerdian Empire anymore. After the king knew about this matter, he immediately discussed with the other two countries, and he could use a plan to lure the demon lord Dius out, sneak attack on the border of the demon country, and then divide a group of people to sneak attack the lair of the demon country, so that the two-pronged approach can ensure that the hidden danger of the demon country can be eliminated!
Out of fear of the Demon Kingdom, the other two countries immediately agreed to send troops to help the Jidiya Empire exterminate the Demon Kingdom. As for the strategy mentioned by the king of the Gidia Empire, it is to spread the news that Princess Riel Wright is about to marry another country, and when the time comes, the procession of relatives will pass through here, and Dius will definitely appear!
Sure enough, when Dius knew that his beloved woman was about to marry away from another country, he immediately brought someone over and prepared to intercept Princess Lillette's send-off party halfway.
However, in fact this was nothing more than a lie, and Lillette was adamantly opposed to it, but was imprisoned by the king in his castle. The greeting procession greeted the princess disguised by others, and swaggered to pass through the forest. Unexpectedly, Dius, who had come to rob his relatives, was ambushed, and his escort was all killed in this place. Although Dius desperately took the bride, he found that it was not his beloved woman at all, and at that moment, Dius killed everyone in the wedding party, and he stumbled back to the demon kingdom. However, when he went back, he found that the people of the demon kingdom had been slaughtered, there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and the smell of blood was disgusting. Originally, I wanted to burn this piece of wood to ashes, but the appearance of a person brought about a turnaround.
This person is the grave sweeper at the old site!
The name of the princess is not introduced, but it is only because he is the last person alive in the Demon Kingdom, and when he is about to be persecuted, suddenly those killed remnants of the Demon Kingdom suddenly stood up and wanted to come over and attack the human race. It seems to be protecting the last bloodline of the Demon Kingdom. But they were all wrong, these remnants of the Demon Kingdom were just bewitched by the dark plague, so they became such monsters. And the reason why they didn't attack the grave sweeper at the old site was completely out of fear of the demon lord, even though it was just a piece of wood that sealed the demon lord's soul.
The people of the empire soon discovered this fact, so they made an agreement with the tomb sweeper at the old site, as long as the tomb sweeper at the old site could guard the soul of the demon lord here for 500 years, then he could leave with the seal wood of the demon lord. In fact, they just thought that even if the people of the Demon Kingdom lived a long life, it would not be possible to survive for 500 years, so this seemingly sincere agreement was actually just a scam!
Then the tomb sweeper at the old site has been guarding the seal wood of the demon lord in the ruins of the demon kingdom for more than 400 years, until now.
As for Princess Lillette, when she learned that Dius had lost his life for her, she began to be depressed, and finally, in the negligence of the guards, Princess Lillette escaped from the castle and came to the place where Dius was rumored to have died. However, at that time, the place was already in ruins, and there were yellow grass and trees everywhere, and even the marks of slashing could be seen. It's a pity that there is no trace of Dius at all.
Princess Lillette lingered here for a long time, it seemed that her grief moved the heavens, and the breath of those who had the remnants of the Demon Medal slowly condensed into a shadow of Deus, which is now the spirit of Deus, the boss we just dealt with! However, the two men who met again were not as happy as they had imagined, and Dius's spirit was soaked in blood, leaving him with only anger and hatred, and he killed the woman he loved with his own hands and sealed her soul in the land. Only by defeating Deus's spirit and cracking the magic circle can she come out again. As for what the grave sweeper at the old site said, the demon lord had prepared a magic array to reawaken the princess, but it was just a reason that the empire found out in order to cover up the real cause of Lillette's death, and the tomb sweeper at the old site, who knew nothing, believed it. That's why we were invited to come and see how the princess's soul is doing.
Now that everything is clear, it turns out that the grave sweeper at the old site is also in the dark, and since this is the case, then reluctantly forgive him. But if he doesn't give him enough rewards when we get back, I'll have to teach him a good lesson. It took a lot of effort this time.
The princess looked at us and continued, "Brave adventurer, I am very eager to see Dius again, but I have no chance of doing so, if you have any news of him, can you tell me?" ”
We looked at each other, and it turned out that the princess didn't know that Dius had died in the territory of the demon kingdom and that his soul was there. After listening to the princess's story, Bai Mei turned to the princess and said: "We just met the soul of the demon lord by chance, although it was sealed, but it is indeed the soul of the demon lord himself, with his own memories and feelings, if you can leave this magic array, we can take you to find the soul of the demon lord, and there is a person who also wants to see you!" ”
