"Even though there are only two pieces in the set, I hope you are satisfied." Seeing Claudia staring at the box in a daze for a long time, Moriarty couldn't help but smile again.

"Of course! Of course yes! ”

As if awakened, the Blood Earl shouted at once.

Just kidding, how can this not be satisfied?!

One is a killing short blade with five physical attack effects, and the other is a rare magic bracelet that combines demon and spell casting, and any one is the best of the best, and it is extremely suitable for Claudia's own positioning. The set bonus attribute "Constant Magical Camouflage Effect" not only allows the Blood Earl to be more deeply active in the human kingdom, but is also an excellent weapon for concealing his own whereabouts when fighting enemies, and it also perfectly matches his class "Level 10 Shadow Assassin plus Level 2 Necromancer and Level 1 Elemental Mage".

Therefore, even if the "Scarlet Mandala" is only the minimum number of two-piece magic sets, it is the most suitable for Claudia, and it is even more expensive.

"Thank you."

Although the inscription on the magic suit reads "Gift to my pet", considering that the "Scarlet Mandala" is too much to her heart, Claudia does not care about these details, and rarely respects the other party.

"You're welcome." Moriarty nodded, and persuaded the Blood Count to wear it immediately.

Sure enough, when Claudia held a five-leaf dagger and wore a magic wreath on her arm, her figure was immediately covered by a layer of magical light and shadow, becoming blurry and unreal, and it was very close to the surrounding environment, as if it had blended in, and its own aura was further introverted.

"Yes, that's good." Seeing the true effect of his work, Moriarty smiled with satisfaction. Then he said: "Then you can return to Kent as much as possible, and be careful all the way." ”

"Yes." The Blood Earl nodded, and finally asked, "When will you come back?" ”

"I can only say as much as I can." The points required for the dimensional gate are very high, and Moriarty doesn't know how long it will take to save them all, but after thinking about it, he said, "I'll return within three months as much as possible." ”

"Okay."

The Blood Earl nodded, and finally glanced sideways at the coffin knight on the other side. Turning around, he jumped a few times, and disappeared into the forest in the distance, without a trace.

And it wasn't until Claudia was completely away that Moriarty turned around, looked at Gauguin, and said in a low voice, "You should know who I am." ”

"Not bad."

There is denial or an attempt to obfuscate, the coffin knight said directly.

It's just that like the Blood Earl, it can't understand anything. Why is it that in a short period of time, the other party is so powerful that he even kills many fourteenth-level powerhouses of the Holy Spirit Hall with one enemy and three like chopping melons.

"If you were allowed to take advantage of Claudia just now, what are you going to do next? Is it to send her back to the Temple of the Holy Spirit? Suddenly, Moriarty asked again.

“… Yes. After a rare hesitation, Gauguin said in a deep voice: "The 'Death Sacred Ritual Guide' of the Holy Spirit Temple can restore my injuries in exchange for Claudia. Should be able to use it once. ”

"Oh? Listening to you, are you not ready to take the opportunity to return to the Holy Spirit Temple? Why? Moriarty asked faintly.

"Yes." The coffin knight nodded: "Because the previous mission failed." I have been disgusted by the Son. Even if you take Claudia, you won't be re-recognized by the other party, let alone get the inheritance of the core of the Holy Spirit Temple. ”

"Who is the 'Son'? Death Evangelist Jahue? You joined the Holy Spirit Temple just for your duties and martial arts? Moriarty frowned.

"The 'Son' is the second most powerful person in the Temple of the Holy Spirit after the Patriarch of Death. Although he is only level fifteen, he has a powerful power comparable to that of the Death Monarch, and his relationship with Lord Jehue is not very harmonious. The factions between the two often fought each other over various issues, and this was a matter of great knowledge throughout the Holy Spirit Temple. Gauguin immediately explained. It's rare to have "too much to say": "As for me, I only pursue the strongest force, and I am not interested in anything else." ”

"What is the name and occupation of the 'Holy Son'?"

"I don't know," the coffin knight shook his head, "I heard that apart from the Death Patriarch, even Lord Jahue doesn't know. The only two times I saw the Son was a faint gray light. And there was only a faint figure swaying in the light cluster, and it was impossible to make out clearly. ”

"Yes." Seeing that the other party could not provide more information, Moriarty nodded and said, "Now you have two choices: either swear by soul fire and declare your allegiance to me; Or accept the most complete extinction, from body to soul to nothingness. ”

Now that some secrets have been revealed, there are only two options left for the parties involved, and even the coffin knight will not be surprised by such a multiple-choice question.

"I choose allegiance." There was no expected repetition of the struggle, and when the other party gave two choices, Gauguin immediately made a decision.

"Oh? Chosen so quickly? Moriarty was slightly surprised: "You know, sometimes allegiance doesn't necessarily pay less than destruction. ”

"You don't have to tempt anymore, adults." The coffin knight looked down at Moriarty, this time after a long silence, and finally said in a deep voice: "A hundred years ago, I was a mercenary knight from Erathia, and I died near the Ember Forest to complete a mission. But for some reason, I thought I would sleep here forever, but I woke up a few months later, became an undead warrior, and retained many memories of human times. Therefore, after the 'resurrection', I could not completely destroy my original humanity and become a complete undead, nor could I return to the human world, so I could only wander aimlessly in Dejia. For more than ten years, by chance, my warrior heart was reawakened. Since then, the path to the strongest military position in the world has become the whole meaning of my continued existence in the future. ”

"I see." Listening to Gauguin's brief and implicitly sad self-description, Moriarty nodded slightly: "So, do you think that by being loyal to me, you can continue on your path?" You know, I don't have a 'war job' to pass on to you right now. ”

"But at least, there is hope. Moreover, you are human and should understand me better than those pure undead. The coffin knight finally said.

"Yes, I believe what you said." Looking up at Gauguin, Moriarty suddenly smiled: "At least, I have never heard the word 'hope' in the mouth of any undead." For a life that is completely dead from body to mind, there is of course no longer 'hope' in the world. ”

After speaking, Moriarty took a step back lightly and said, "My name: Moriarty. Ensberg, now you can take the oath. ”

"Yes."

With a heavy nod, the coffin knight knelt down on one knee with a "bang", and at the same time raised his remaining arm, which was laid across his chest, while his head was deeply bowed.

This is the standard posture for a human knight to swear allegiance to the Lord.

"I, Ferdinando. Gauguin, hereby swears with the fire of his soul to Moriarty. Ensberg offered all my loyalty, and henceforth made him Lord and never betrayed..."

And with Gauguin's solemn oath of allegiance, a trace of soul fire floated out of his helmet, forming a crystal filament, which fell on the body of Moriarty on the opposite side, and then disappeared.

In this way, the coffin knight established an inviolable relationship between the knight and the lord. If Gauguin intended to betray or divulge Moriarty's secrets in the future, Moriarty would be able to extinguish his soul and perish forever with a flicker of his mind.

"Very well, I accept your allegiance."

Nodding, Moriarty also took out a magic sword, and according to the etiquette of human nobles, he tapped on the top of the coffin knight's head and on both shoulders that knelt down in front of him, and completed the entire procedure perfectly.

"Get up, Gauguin." Being able to reap the allegiance of the coffin knight is very satisfying.

"Yes, sir." Gauguin then stood up.

"I'll find a way to help you recover from your injuries, don't worry." Looking at the newly housed subordinates, Moriarty said directly: "Similarly, like Claudia, if the conditions are right, I will also order a magic suit for you, which can be regarded as a manor fief in place of the human world, to reward your loyalty." ”

"Yes, thank you, sir!"

Hearing this, the coffin knight was stunned for a moment, then fell down on one knee and solemnly thanked the sovereign.

With the absolute strength that Moriarty had shown before, Gauguin naturally fully believed that he had the strength and the way to treat his injury.

As for the latter, magic equipment is also rare in Dejia, not to mention suits. But having only seen the Blood Count accept a set of "Blood Mandalas", it fully proves the identity of Moriarty's powerful alchemist. In addition, the other party also took the initiative to make a hearty promise, which really made Gauguin not know what to say. Moreover, compared with the legal profession, the love and importance of military equipment and equipment are much higher.

"By the way, what is the battle inheritance of the Holy Spirit Temple that you originally fancied?" Waving his hand to make the coffin knight stand up, Moriarty asked casually.

"The Extreme Way Branch of the Necromantic Paladin - 'Forgotten Knight'."

"The Forgotten Knight?" Moriarty raised an eyebrow.

"Yes, I don't know the specific content of the inheritance, I only know that this class can use the power of death to lay down the 'Oblivion Domain', so that the enemy's memory is blinded and he loses himself."

"The Forgotten Realm... Memories are clouded and self is lost. ”

Hearing this, Moriarty's expression suddenly became stern.

If Gauguin's words are true, then the Knights of Oblivion are arguably one of the strongest forces in the Holy Spirit. Even in the plane, it is one of the most terrible realms.

Because for any strong person, if he is forced to forget his memory, then let alone continue to fight, I am afraid that it will be difficult to maintain even the continued existence of the self, and he may have to self-destruct on the spot. Therefore, if there really exists such a "Forgotten Knight" as Zài in the Holy Spirit Temple, once it is sacrificed in a great battle, it will really suppress the whole audience, and even the "Plane Guardian" may not dare to really attack him.
