Volume 1: Arrogance Chapter 11: The Last Remaining Goodwill

Late at night, the capital of Ams

"What's the matter with me so late?" The sound of the door being pushed open didn't stop Ronald from moving his hands, now he was dealing with an urgent document, and the increasing frequency of some forces caused his workload to increase geometrically, although he could also leave everything to his subordinates to do, but some things were better to do it himself for safety.

"See for yourself." As he spoke, Navis held a report directly to Ronald's desk, and the smile on his face was not hidden in the slightest.

"How do I feel like you're gloating?" Glancing at the person standing beside him, Ronald immediately picked up the report on the table, but in the next second, he directly clutched the things in his hand into a ball, "These bastards!" ”

"Don't be too angry, after all, the people down there don't know who she is."

Navis's words made Ronald calm down a little, and after taking a deep breath, he spoke again and asked, "Do you know who did it?" ”

"Regarding this, the person who bought the murder did not reveal his name or family, presumably considering that this situation happened."

"Humph! Tell the people below to check it for me! If they can't find out, they will take their own lives! Ronald slammed his right hand on the table, and the bruises on his forehead made it easy to see his anger at the moment.

"Understood." Navis spread his hands, then turned and walked towards the door, but stopped again before he could reach the door, "Oh, by the way, there is another thing, that girl recently left Moonspring and is now staying in a village called Rishire. ”

"Rishire? I see, and don't forget to urge the people over there. ”

"Got it......"

Navis's figure disappeared from Ronald's field of vision with a sound of the door closing, and then Ronald sighed and closed his eyes and leaned back in his chair, his mind a little complicated. The changes that have taken place throughout the Islamic continent, what was once seen only in books, are now in reality. At this moment, Ronald's heart was entangled with a touch of irritability, although he had seen similar records in ancient books, but it was only a few strokes and did not elaborate too much.

Why is there no solution? Or is there no such thing as a solution? Of course, it is also possible that it has been artificially erased, but this possibility is ...... Very small...... There are also those forces that are ready to move, even if they have not yet reached the level of war, but all kinds of friction continue, and war is only a matter of time.

"Maybe it's time to go out and have a look......"

……

A few days later, a small forest in the territory of the Duchy of Otto

"The environment hasn't changed much."

In the forest path, a giant wolf walked slowly ahead, and on its back sat a woman on its side. The woman was wearing a close-fitting leather skirt, carrying a giant sword on her back, and her long silver hair was raised high by a red rope, and the whole person looked very neat.

"Well, and from the observations along the way, there shouldn't be many places that have changed, at least as far as we know, it's the Silent Ridge, and as for other places, we have to collect some information."

"So you're only here to gather intelligence?"

"No, I'm just passing through here this time, after all, if you want to get to that place, you have to pass through here first." This time, the goal is to go to the former site of the Duchy of Evel, where she once belonged. In addition, although Xiao Yueluo had the intention of revenge in her heart, she also knew that now was not the time, and besides, she was weak, even if she went to Otto's palace, she was afraid that she would only give her life in vain.

"But...... It seems that we will inevitably get into trouble wherever we go, so let's come out, there's no point in hiding any longer, right? ”

The next second Xiao Yueluo spoke, the head wolf also stopped his steps, and then more than two dozen men dressed in cloth instantly jumped out of the two sides of the road.

"Robbers? Will there be robbers in such a place? Xiao Yueluo raised her eyebrows, her voice with obvious surprise. In fact, it is not surprising that Xiao Yueluo is strange, after all, the scale of this forest is not very large, it can be said that there is no suitable place to hide, and of course, it is not excluded that the group of people in front of her came from other places.

"Little girl, hand over everything on your body, otherwise you ......"

"How else?" Jumping off the wolf's back with one hand, Xiao Yueluo tilted her head to look at the group of people in front of her, "Kill me?" Or is it ...... Killed by me? ”

"Brothers, give it to me, I want to live!" A voice that almost gritted his teeth burst out of the mouth of a middle-aged man with an eyepatch, and his vicious eyes seemed to be about to devour Xiaoyue Luo alive.

"Boss, just look at it, brothers!"

The bland path instantly set off a bloody explosion, the roar of beasts, the sound of swords colliding, every swing of the sword will take away a person's life, for Xiao Yueluo, the combat effectiveness of these robbers is not strong, and it can even be said that it is only a little higher than those monsters in Silent Hill.

A few minutes later, except for Xiao Yueluo and the head wolf, only the middle-aged man wearing an eyepatch was left on the path. At this moment, the man's eyes widened, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief, the bright red all over the ground and the suffocating smell of blood, and Xiao Yueluo, who was constantly approaching him with a giant sword in hand, this culprit who caused everything had undoubtedly become his eternal nightmare.

"That's you...... Want to capture me alive? ”

"You...... Don't come here......" The right hand holding the long sword continued to tremble, and the man subconsciously took a half step back, but found that he didn't even have the courage to turn around and run away.

"Scared now? If it's not me who is here this time, but other ordinary people, maybe ...... You've already killed you, right? There was a sweet smile on his face, but this smile fell into the man's eyes like a demon seeking his life.

"Next time you are reincarnated, remember to do more good deeds, goodbye......" The knife fell from his hand, and the blood sprayed everywhere instantly.

Because of being on the battlefield all the year round, Xiao Yueluo realized the preciousness of life, and these people who wanted to kill her for money had long since made her unable to have a trace of pity. Wealth is in the sky, life and death have fate, but those killings on the battlefield, those lives, the wails before death, those unwillingness, and those resentment. For Xiao Yueluo, since she has the courage to take up a weapon, she must have the idea of killing the enemy, and if she has the idea of killing, she must be ready to be killed. So since these people appeared in front of her, she had no intention of letting go of one person, and her hands were stained with countless blood, and now she is not an exaggeration to say that she is numb.

"Shadow, help me dig a pit over there before you find a place to live...... "At this time, it is approaching the afternoon, and the temperature in April is not too high, but it is always unreasonable for so many people to be violent in the wilderness, killing people to numbness, but not losing the kindness in their hearts, maybe this is the most suitable portrayal of Xiao Yueluo now.
