Kajika's mood at this time was very complicated.

It was the first time he had killed an innocent person outside of his mission, and it was the first time he had set off a massacre.

Before making a move, Akajika also made a lot of plans in her mind: what to do if she encounters a strong person who can't be solved quickly, what to do if these people kill her together, and what if someone finds out her purpose and removes the bandages on her body. But when it came time to actually get his hands dirty, he realized that these preparations didn't make the slightest sense.

These carals kept in greenhouses are too fragile, too cowardly.

About eighty percent of them have never seen a dead person, and even fewer have come down from the front. Just frightened by the red oak flowers, they didn't even dare to move.

I obviously made so many preparations, but I found that the opponent was completely useless...... For a while, the red tree flower had a feeling of powerlessness to smash her fist on the cotton.

In fact, now that I think about it, this is also a matter of course.

This is the edge of the disaster area, and it is a place for the minor injured to recover and recuperate. Unlike in the central area, where the ground has collapsed and houses have collapsed on a large scale, the people here are either nearby residents or "rescuers" who are afraid to go there or are too lazy to go to the center of gravity of the disaster area.

They are people who have been transferred from the surrounding cities. But they were afraid that there was a devil in the center of the disaster area, or that there was a possibility of it collapsing again, or that they didn't want to use their physical strength to save people, so they nested in this marginal area where there was basically nothing to do to pass the time.

If they were tired of standing, they would shovel around with shovels, or walk around like ghosts behind other workers. Expressing the gesture of "I am working" and rubbing off on the achievements of the "disaster relief". Even none of them were saved. also dangling around to block the way for people who are really saving people.

Now people who really have the courage and perseverance are saving people in the central area. will be lazy and run to the periphery.,Basically, it's not a powerful character with a threat.。 Facing the intimidation of the red oak flower. Of course they wanted to resist, but as soon as that thought came to them, they were immediately suppressed.

Of course, this has something to do with the "character image" created by the red oak flower.

Akajika doesn't want to leave her whole life here. Even if he dies, he will at least save some face for his parents and younger brother. If the news of his killing of hundreds of people spreads, what else would they do? If the families of the victims were to find them, what would happen to their parents and younger brothers?

Akajika didn't dare to bet. He didn't even dare to die in his own name, he could only use someone else's identity.

The role he plays as a "mad veteran" is not something he fabricated out of thin air. This is a man he once killed who made a deal with the devil.

That man was a lucky veteran who had fought seven battles and charged the front line three times, but was still in good health. At the time of his discharge, he was eventually awarded four medals and a hereditary knighthood as well as a sizable estate in recognition of his outstanding achievements.

The veteran wasn't satisfied with that. He felt insulted. He thought he could still fight—but the truth is, his hair was more than half white, and his skin was covered with age spots and lost its elasticity.

He longed for the blood of his enemies, and he was deeply attached to the touch of tearing apart his enemies' bodies with Karar's sword. Coupled with the fact that his wife had died of illness and his children had died on the battlefield, he had no attachment to the world - and the warrior was naturally depraved. He made a pact with the devil in the hope of regaining the vitality of his youth and returning to the battlefield he loved.

Like everyone else, he was deceived.

Veterans get nothing but "vitality". His body was full of vigor, and he couldn't sleep night after night. But his bones were still slender and fragile, his skin was still inelastic, and his hair was dry, and it was difficult to hold his sword.

So he went crazy.

In the madness, he seems to have completed some forbidden ritual. In the end, he killed the demon's projection with mysterious power and successfully regained the ownership of his soul. But since then, the veteran's will has also been distorted. From a warrior who pursues honor to a cruel artist who pursues beauty.

At that time, Akajika was tasked with killing the devil. When they arrived, they found that the devil had been killed by the veteran, and the veteran had degenerated into some kind of monster that was not inferior to the devil - he had anemone-like swinging tentacles on the back of his head. And his eyes have become the eyes of a snake.

Realizing that she was a demon hunter, Akajira killed him in the wild and buried him.

And with the consciousness of a junior, Akajika did not tell the other villagers what a terrible monster this veteran was, nor did he reveal his identity as a devil believer, so that this veteran finally retained his reputation and was honored as a hero.

Akajika uses his image, speaks in his tone, and uses the weapons he left behind at that time. Therefore, using any identity prophecy magic on this disguised image will only end up with the veteran's information.

According to the ordinary people's thinking, few people would have thought that a person who used the Karar military swordsmanship so smoothly would be a warrior of another country. Akajika has no doubt that her true identity will not be revealed.

But what made him entangled was that after he realized this, a strong sense of pleasure rose in his heart.

When using that veteran identity, Akajika felt as if she was possessed by that veteran. For the first time, Akajika felt some kind of pleasure when she was killing.

After making sure that her fake news had been left, Akajika never spoke again, so she killed all the way in silence, aiming directly at the center of the disaster area...... In other words, the target is directly aimed at the Marquis of Saya.

On the other side, Roland had already followed Kakarit to Joseph.

When he saw Joseph again, Roland's murderous intent was clear.

Although Joseph seemed very low-key and silent, Roland clearly saw a flash of surprise in Joseph's eyes.

He shouldn't have feelings.

There is no doubt that Joseph's brain wound has been healed by someone. Roland saw very clearly a sharp light in Joseph's eyes.

Roland's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked as if nothing had happened, "Joseph, where are our gold coins?" ”

"Your Highness, it's right at your feet."

Joseph's head was lowered, his eyes fixed on the ground, and he said with a blank face, "By the inspiration of my teacher, I have hidden the gold and silver coins in the cemetery here. In every coffin. ”

Roland nodded knowingly, revealing a gentle smile, "You've done a good job, Joseph." I bless you in the name of the Guru. ”

Joseph nodded silently, without the slightest expression on his face.

“…… Now, I'm going to give you a new assignment. And Kakarit, you come over too. ”

Roland's face became serious: "I have destroyed the City of Wealth by the will of my mentor. This is what you know. ”

Joseph and Kakarit nodded.

That's when they started following Roland, and of course they knew about it.

Roland took a deep breath and continued, "But, as you know, there is one last existence in the City of Wealth that has not been obliterated. ”

"—The Tree of Suffering."

Kakarit immediately answered.

Roland nodded: "Exactly." ”

"The Mentor's command is to 'guide all life to eternal sleep and let the sinful city be reborn from the ashes,'" Roland sighed deeply, "I hope for your help. ”

"As you wish."

Without hesitation, Kakarit agreed. Although Joseph did not take a stand, Roland did not look at him because he "should not have an opinion in theory", but continued: "From this point on, I apologize to you, because it was my job. I repent of my sloth and many other sins. ”

"You don't have to."

Kakarit replied in a dignified manner, "You are the substitute of the Guru, the glory of walking on the earth. It is our honor to share your worries with you. ”

"Exactly."

Joseph had no choice but to reply.

Roland smiled with relief.

He nodded with satisfaction and said to the two of them, "Then, in order to ensure that the operation is foolproof, Joseph, you will first go and find out the information of the Tree of Suffering. We will meet you at the West Gate of the City of Fortune in two days, so please pay attention to your own safety and put safety first. ”

"Yes."

"Kakarit, you go with me to the White Wolf Cemetery first. I'm going to get something there. ”

"As you wish."

Roland's expression gradually softened, and then he said something that made Kakarit and Joseph not help but be surprised: "This matter means a lot to me. If this goes well, I'll bring you a ring and a shoulder strap. ”

Roland smiled gently at the two: "I want to ...... I need about a few cardinals to do my part. (To be continued.) )
