Chapter 287: Disposition
The Dax invasion battle 20 years ago destroyed not only the will of the front-line garrison of the Duchy of Dax and the entire knights, but also the belief of the Duke of Dax to resist the demons, as well as the endless despair brought by the dark night of the endless east. Although the demons returned to the Great Abyss after the invasion and did not further destroy Dax, Dax still maintained the dilapidated appearance after the war for 1 year, until the new Duke of Dax, Leorick, took office, everything began to be in ruins again, and new hope was planted in people's fragile hearts.
But for those who had made the 'Devil's Pact' at the time, the night would never fade. They are here to survive, or for profit, or for the sake of loved ones, but whatever they asked for in the first place, they will now be the meaningless tombstone they were upon upon death. In the face of the spitting, contempt, and disgust of the people who have been reinvigorated, as well as the hatred of those who once knew each other, and even those who loved each other, some of these contractors committed suicide, some simply joined the demons and became slaves, and more of them wandered the streets, becoming 'angry ones' who could explode at any time.
And today, the homeless man who appeared in front of Alan and Sehir was one of the many 'rage ones'. Unable to bear people's eyes and their own sins, they burst out with anger in their hearts, anger that wanted to destroy everything. Catalyzed by the alcohol, the sensation became even more inflated and intense, as if his chest could burst with anger at any moment if he didn't destroy everything in front of him.
The anger subsided as the alcohol evaporated, leaving only the man's pale face and the remnants of the ground.
"What did I do, I don't"
The man hid his face and wept, helpless like a child, and the onlookers sighed, sighed, and cursed, although quietly, but in this quiet street where only the sound of crying was heard. Worried that the man would be angry again because of the stimulation of the outside world, Sehir hurriedly dispersed the crowd around him, and the people also dispersed because the incident was calmed down, and the encirclement that seemed to close the entire space finally collapsed, and the fresh air gradually poured in, blowing away the turbidity, and it also seemed to blow away the gloom of Sehir's heart.
"Okay, don't cry anymore, after all, you are still doing it yourself, you are all old, you should take responsibility for the mistakes you have made, and follow me back to the Self-Defense Force to accept the guilt."
Although Cershir said something serious, he did not lock him up with iron chains as he had done with prisoners in the past, but only picked up the long sword that had been broken into two sections on the ground, reinserted it into its scabbard, and then poked the man with the scabbard, signaling him to go with him. Alan looked at Sehir with some curiosity, a female knight, courageous and courageous, although her swordsmanship was a little worse, but she couldn't hide her light, is this what the former aristocratic Canterlot family looks like now? Alan couldn't help but sigh that there are many people who uphold justice among those nobles, and there are no absolutes in the world. As Father said, justice in this world is a circle, and you may stand at different points on this circle, but the center around it is the same. They may have different ways and different definitions, but in the end, the goal of all those who pursue the footsteps of justice is the same, that is, to fight with kindness and to be friends with love.
Sehir came to Allen with the homeless man, the tall Sehir was about the same height as Allen, but he blushed slightly like a little girl, I don't know if it was because of the previous defeat, or because Alan was too handsome.
"Alan, I thank you again for your help."
Sehir said politely.
"Does your injury matter?"
Alan saw that Sehir's red wrist must have been sprained by too much force when he caught the homeless man's axe, and it must have hurt a lot. Out of chivalry, Alan couldn't help but blurt out.
"Ah, it's okay, it's just a minor injury."
Sehir's face turned redder, but what happened next surprised her even more. Alan held up Sehir's hand, took out a bandage from his arms, and gently bandaged her, the movement was fast and light, and the skillful technique made Sehir's eyes widen,
"No, you don't need to bandage it, go back and ice it and you'll be fine."
wanted to break free, but was pinched by Allen's seemingly gentle movements.
"Don't move, it'll be fine right away, I'm very skilled at this, peace of mind."
Allen's beautiful voice seemed to be the most beautiful star of Dax at the moment illuminating the softest part of Sehir's heart, she was not worried about Allen's bandaging skills at all, but this was the first time she was held by a boy by her hand, inexplicably throbbing and heartbeat, as if she felt when entering a battle, but it was different, the difference was that at this moment, this feeling of excitement filled her with joy, as if a hundred flowers were blooming, and countless spring elves were singing above her head.
Seeing that Sehil didn't reply, Alan quickly finished the bandage,
"Very good, the emergency is done!"
Sehir looked up and met Alan's bright smile, completely different from when he focused on fighting when he drew his sword, now Eren is more like a boy next door, with a sunny smile that blinds Sehir.
"What are you going to do with this man, Sehir?"
Alan asked.
"Lock him up, of course."
Sehir knew that although he didn't want to punish this man excessively, he couldn't escape the punishment of the Self-Defense Forces no matter what, and it was impossible for him to stay on this street, so he could only answer like this.
"Can't you let him go?"
"What?"
Allen's words surprised Sehir, and people generally avoid such a homeless person. Allen's appearance is a swordsman, these people who have dealt with the demons are already hostile to each other with righteous people like Allen, and now Allen is interceding for him, which has to impress Sehir.
"Although it was his fault that he suddenly went berserk, you should also know how difficult it will be for people who have accepted the 'Demon Contract' to survive in today's Dax. Are those who bullied him and drove him mad also to blame? ”
The crowd around him had long since dispersed, and the so-called messenger had long since disappeared, and Sehir brushed his hair behind his ears,
"I know what you mean, but to prevent him from doing it again, I can't just leave him here. As you said, those who instigated him and bullied him are also at fault, but I don't have the right to arrest them all, leaving him will only increase their harm to each other, maybe going back with me will be a good thing for him.
