Chapter 554: Respective Decisions
Everyone looked at their fingers, and Lothar, who was not very surprised, spread his hands, obviously he had a premonition. The Count of Montenegro then took the battle axe from behind his back and unwrapped the cloth wrapped around it, revealing the golden body of the axe. "Is it because of it?" Those who first saw this weapon, which was no longer in Hearn's hands, were amazed at its ostentatious appearance, but it was interesting to note that the Fool's Justice, though golden, did not have the luster of a precious metal, and it looked like a knock-off of cheap brass.
"The witch hunting knife can sense the presence of evil creatures, especially demons and devils. They are born with a powerful aura of magic, and they are not hidden in other ways like wizards. So even if the devil tried to disguise himself again, he wouldn't be able to fool himself in front of this tomahawk. Krus said, and the man took a half step back, and with the devil's blood in his veins, he was not welcome with the witch-hunting knife, and the same demon descendants did not like this weapon.
"That's easy, let Leon take it back to the coalition and find that devil and kill him. Lothar said that he was about to hand the weapon to the Blood Lion, but when the Fool's Justice was held by the latter, the color of the battle axe quickly turned gray, like a lifeless plant rapidly decaying. Seeing this, Leon hurriedly shoved the witch hunting knife back into Lothar's hand, and everyone could see that this weapon only recognized one owner.
"It seems that this axe cannot be separated from its owner. The killer raised an eyebrow, "But it doesn't matter if you use it to find the devil's true body." Witch Hunting Knives were not originally designed to kill devils or demons, they were meant to fight wizards, so they could not kill demons. The devil knows this very well, and he will not be afraid of you. And as far as I know, this Mr. Lothar has not had a good reputation at the moment, and it is difficult to say who those people will believe in the end. ”
The Blood Lion frowned, it was a well-known fact that Lothar was still wanted, and the nobles of the kingdom had always lacked favor with the overly aggressive Count of Montenegro. He could fully imagine that as long as the devil had a reasonable identity, he could ignore Lothar's accusations or even turn black and white upside down. "Then we're back to square one, is there really nothing we can do?"
"I'm afraid so, Mr. Knight. Krus glanced at Gloria and the nezumi present, "Honestly, I don't hate you, and while your kind have attacked my friend's city, you can't be blamed. I know very well what it's like to be treated like a monster, and that's not good. But that's what the world is, it doesn't always go our way, especially when there is a shadow of the devil and demons. I'm here to make sure that the nezumi aren't a threat anymore, and now it seems inevitable. So it's time for me to leave, and the last thing I can do for you poor fellows is I'm going to take Jerry and make him a great killer and keep your race, if you can call it a race, a little longer. ”
With that, the Demon Spawn turned and walked out of the room. Soon Jerry's shouts were heard, and it was clear that the apprentice didn't like the teacher's decision. But he had no ability to resist in front of Krus, and the noise quickly subsided, and the people in the house who didn't need to go out knew that the master and apprentice were no longer there. Sitting in the room, Peg silently clutched her clothes, she wanted to stop Jerry from leaving, and the boy made a deep impression on her. But the little witch also knew that she was not qualified to do so. At the same time, she doesn't want to live a wandering life with the Demon Descendant, her freedom is not easy to come by, and she shouldn't be so impatient to put shackles on herself again.
"We don't have a reason to go to war, it's one thing to drive out demons, it's another to fight the whole kingdom. Moreover, the foundations of the Alexander clan are too weak to go out into the sun. Jack said in a deep voice, seeing that it was already impractical to find out the devil in the coalition, as the leader of the wolfwalkers, he also had to take care of his human identity. If the Frost Guardian appears among the nezumi, it will definitely cause revenge from the nobles of the kingdom who have long been dissatisfied with the Legion. "So not only me, Mona, nor Elsa will not and cannot help you. ”
Mona, who was still plagued by bestiality, would not react to such a decision, and Elsa seemed to want to refute Jack's point at first, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that there was nothing wrong with what he said. They are also members of the Frost in addition to their own will, and the Legion cannot help inhuman monsters, even if they were once human.
"I have a suggestion, though. Just when everyone thought the Frosts were going to leave, Jack continued, "While we can't help you as allies, Dragonspine Mountain is big enough to provide shelter for our friends. If it were just you and the few people around you, I think the commander would still be willing to help. ”
"So do we. Kolanty held up her hand, "In my name and my mother, I am willing to provide protection for a small number of nezumen. Trust us to do that. And this offer isn't just for the nezumi, if you will, Peg, maybe you'll want to live with us for a while. ”
"Wait a minute, it's not that far, is it? Do you need to be so decisive now?" Lothar looked at his companions, he couldn't believe that they would offer to abandon Gloria and her people at this time. In the Earl's view, this was tantamount to leaving them to fend for themselves.
"I'm afraid that's the case. Earl, it would be unwise for any person or group to go against a kingdom. You know that better than anyone else, don't you?" said Networm behind him. She was also thinking about her own way out. If Lothar can't reclaim his title in the Blue Lion, perhaps she can take the warrior with the witch-hunting knife away from the country and become a mercenary, and with the skills of the Count of Montenegro, they are enough to support themselves.
The mercenary's words did remind Lothar of the thieves and bandits he had eliminated with his massive forces. Although the nezumi are far more effective than these juniors, the blue lion is still the kingdom after all, and now that the momentum of the plague has faded, there will not be so many new nezumi born, and their situation will become like that sooner or later. Even if a small number of nezumi escape the pursuit, they will have to hide in the forest and other places to survive, and become the legendary monsters of the countryside.
Looking at the Count, who was silent, Gloria didn't scold anyone. She nodded silently, "From the very beginning, we already owe Mr. Cheese and everyone here too much favor. You are not obligated to fight for us twisters, and that would be so unfair to you. Including you, Your Excellency Lyon, you need not worry about our past. No one would want to recognize such a compatriot. ”
Then, the Daughter of Saron, the leader of the nezumi, turned to look at the wise nezumi who followed her. "I'm sorry you were involved in this disaster, it's not your fault. So if you wish to follow Mr. Jack or Miss Colandy and accept their protection, do not hesitate to stay strong. I'm sure Mr. Cheese will find a way to get in touch with this curse sooner or later. And if you still decide to stay here and still think I can be your lord, then allow me to make a decision. ”
"All the nezumi, launch a general attack on Valley City at sunset, and do your best to destroy the demons. This is our salvation and the last thing we can do for this land. ”
