Yao Chi came to see me, followed by Veraya, the demoness who had been captured by the Aardman during Yegri's assassination of the Scepter, and I asked Misser to help her mix with our soldiers all the way back to Cry.

As a result, Yao Chi knew Veraille, and knew them very well, as if they were classmates or colleagues or something. I couldn't fully trust the female demon envoy, so I let Yao Chi take care of her, there was no big basket at the moment, and I trusted Yao Chi's judgment.

Yao Chi said: "It's too cruel to burn at the stake publicly, Fishbone, what is the difference between you doing this and the extremists of the Sword and Shield Society?" ”

I know that the Sword and Shield Society will be in the early days of the Frontier, and if the mages of the Era Empire are captured, they will also be burned at the stake, maybe Yao Chi remembers bad memories.

I replied, "It's a cruel punishment, but it can't be helped." ”

Yao Chi asked, "What do you mean by no way?" Mst did not sin unto death, but now you will burn him alive with fire. ”

I said, "He had a very bad effect, and both the Mandor and the Brahmites thought that offending Cain's theocracy deserved the most severe death penalty." ”

Yao Chi sighed, "So you're satisfying them?" You can execute Mst, confiscate his property, there's no problem at all, but burn him in public..."

I said, "Ma'am, let's be a little more precipitous, we are not in a civilized society, and now is not the time for the heart of Mary to overflow. Outside the city, people are eating people, demons are eating people, sixty percent of the survivors are robbers, and we can't be forgiving and forgiving, and we are not rich enough to keep prisoners. I am establishing the authority of the law so that everyone knows that Cainism will see all sin and punish all sin. ”

Yao Chi said: "If you do this, the weeping aborigines are afraid that they will not be able to stand it, and they cannot watch one of their respected compatriots being burned to charcoals. ”

"The Muster family's behavior can't even bear their own people, don't worry, things will go well."

Yaochi's eyes stared at me and said, "Kara told me that she was the one who reminded you to use burning at the stake. ”

I patiently replied, "Yes, she reminded me, but the burning at the stake is the result of a court sentence." ”

"Carla is a genius, but she doesn't understand how terrible it is to be burned at the stake," Yaochi said. You can't make her like this feeling of having someone else's life and death in her hands, she needs to be disciplined, and if you let her see the stake, maybe she will get used to burning people in the future. ”

I frowned, "You think Kara is psychopathic?" How could this happen to my daughter? ”

Yao Chi smiled bitterly: "When I was a child, watching my beloved being burned to death by flames, I hated and feared burning at the stake ever since. Similarly, at Kara's age, if she knew that someone she hated had died in flames, she might have become obsessed with the power. You can't go along with her in everything. ”

I wanted to find something to fiddle with, but I couldn't find it, so I said, "My beloved lady, I can only ask you to help me enlighten her." ”

Yao Chi hesitated for a moment and said, "You will never change your mind?" ”

"I'm sorry, but the court's verdict is absolute."

Yao Chi said, "At least execute the execution in private, and don't spread this heinous horror." ”

"Yaochi, in these years, have they seen fewer tragic things? Tragic deaths are everywhere, and the burning at the stake is just a reminder to cherish peace and share the weal and woe of all, rather than satisfying one's own ugly desires and ignoring the lives and deaths of others. ”

Yao Chi retorted: "Torture does not make people learn or comprehend anything, their essence does not change, and only through learning and education can the next generation be changed." ”

I said, "Didn't I start a school?" The academy is also in the pipeline. But troubled times need to be re-enacted, Yaochi, if the people who cry are as soft-hearted as you, how long can we live? We need knowledge and morality, but we also need blood and strength. ”

Yao Chi lowered her head, as if she didn't intend to argue about it anymore, and she finally said, "Carla and Martin, I gradually lost control of them, and everything I had taught them gradually fell apart. They have already begun to run forward on their own. ”

I asked, "Do they have no respect for you?" These two little bastards, I've got to talk about them. ”

Yao Chi said: "They only worship you, only you can make them understand, don't let them go astray, fishbone, I beg you." ”

Knowing that she cared for my child so much, I was so moved that I stepped forward, shook her hand, and said, "Madame, I am so grateful for all that you have done. ”

Yaochi didn't say anything anymore, turned around and walked out of the office, her back a little lonely.

Suddenly Veraille whispered in my ear: "These two children have the mark of Simon Magus on them. ”

I was stunned and said, "What? ”

"Not only Carla and Martin, but also Lamia, like me, belongs to Simon Magus," Veraille said. ”

I know that Lamia's mother, Carla and Martin's parents, have a relationship with Simon Magus, no, Simon Magus is the enemy of all my relatives, but what the hell is the mark of Magus?

Veraille: "Simon is also a weirdo in the Anno Empire. Did you know that the predecessor of the Anno Empire was an organization of mages called the Demon Maidens? ”

"I happen to know that."

"Simon is one of the widows of the Devil's Daughter, and he has created some Neferem through various methods, and these Neferems have special marks on them, I don't know what he wants to do, but you have to be careful," Veraille said. ”

I suddenly had another annoyance, and replied, "Doesn't that mean you haven't said anything?" Of course I'll be careful, but how? ”

Veraille showed me the skin of her right hand, and there was nothing on it.

I was taken aback and asked, "You didn't keep the palace sand?" ”

"No, what is Shoumiyasha?"

I couldn't explain it, so I could say, "It's just... It's also considered ... Some kind of imprint, if you and men .... Forget it, don't mention it. ”

At this time, I wanted to know if she was still a virgin, which made me realize that I was really hopeless, and that she was an aunt at all, although she was very young.

"You can't see it, but I can see it," said Veraille, "and it is the mark that Simon Magus is looking for, and he has commanded us to look for him as well." ”

I shouted, "What do you want?" If you dare to have any bad intentions against Lamia and Kara..."

Veraille said, "No, I have completely broken away from Magus, from the Epochal Empire, and I swore to you, so you can rest assured. ”

I can rest assured that there are ghosts.

I asked, "What do you think about burning at the stake?" ”

Veraye pursed her lips and trembled with fear, and she hurried after Yao Chi without even answering me.

I don't know what evil I have fallen into, why do I have to be so entangled in a burning at the stake? Did Yaochi say those big truths that messed up my brain?

The stake was just outside the window, and I opened the window and looked at the wood piled up diagonally, and even though it wasn't burning, I could still smell the burning.

I can't waver, I can't be soft-hearted, but I'm not a butcher who kills for pleasure.

But I was no longer qualified to judge whether I was a butcher or not, because my bombs killed thousands of people in the chasm.

I thought of Verayet's look of fear, she was terrified, as if it was she who was going to be burned. In an instant, a cold pierced my spine like a sharp knife and flowed all over my body, and I wanted to have the burner removed from the stake and the sentence to be sent to a prison cell, but I restrained myself.

He asked me, "Fishbone, what's wrong with you?" ”

I said, "Tighten your guard, see if there's anything wrong with the cameras around, and if the crying people get together, tell me right away and listen to what they say." ”

Lack: "What else?" ”

"Where's the mask?"

"He's not here, the detective agency has a case to investigate, it's a cheating...."

I think the mask is just an excuse to be lazy.

"Where's Master Helsin? Ask him to come and see me when he's free. ”

When I met Hawke Helsing, I was reassured by his pale hair and wrinkles on his face.

Hawke smiled, "I've already read those documents you gave me, thank you." ”

He was in a good mood, which made me feel relieved for a while, and I said, "What do you think about burning at the stake?" ”

Hawke said, "What else can you see? I've seen a lot of people at Sword and Shield. ”

I said, "Ke Yao Chi...."

"Everybody has their own knots, and for her, burning at the stake is a hurdle in her heart, and that's it, and I know you respect her opinion, but what can you do?" Without the necessary compassion and conscience, it will only harm you in this age. ”

I was relieved that I should have gone to the Black Coffin to see Michael and Le Steel, but now I didn't want to run anywhere.

I took out a bottle of wine, poured a glass for Master Hawke, and said, "I've met quite a few people from the Helsings, and sure enough, all of them are different. ”

Hawke laughed, swept away his melancholy and serious temperament, and said, "Knowing that I have a grandniece and have a good time with Salvador, I feel like finding a lottery ticket that has won the jackpot." You know I'm bullish on this kid from Salvador. ”

I said, "Hotty is doing well. ”

We fell silent, but luckily Master Hawke didn't have a knife with him.

I changed my words and said, "No, I just said that she has grown well, she is very tall and strong, and her chest is big and her head is big..."

Helsing's family didn't know if there was a kind of mental blade that killed people with his eyes, but I think there was, and Hawke was planning to use it.

I added, "No, I'm saying she's the right body for fighting, her chest is a significant protector of her heart and lungs, and the fat content is tsk..."

What the hell am I talking about? Isn't that getting darker and darker?

Hawke asked, "Do you have a picture of her?" ”

I laughed and said, "No, do you want to see if what I said about boobs is true?" You always watch your body. ”

He stared at me again, this old man has a problem in his heart, I just want to liven up the atmosphere, I have something to say, why kill people with my eyes?

Hawke took a sip of wine and said, "That Bostex should be my nephew." ”

I said, "He died a heroic death, and maybe that's the style of the Helsings." ”

I really have a bad mouth, which pot can't be opened, and now he began to sigh.

I said, "You don't have to blame yourself for the Helsings, and you don't have to think about revenge on the Sword and Shield Society, as you said, every family is prone to death these days." ”

Hawke smiled wryly, "I really want to meet Longley Helsing." ”
