"The monarch killer will come to this tavern? Are you kidding me? ”

Knight Colt gasped slightly, and looked up at the surrounding streets.

Nolanco is completely different from the streets of the capital of the Frost Country, and the streets of the Frost Nation can run wild on a war horse without any problems.

But horseback riding is even slower on the streets of Nolan than on foot.

"There are too many damn citygoers!"

"Trust my 'sense of smell', the monarch killer is here! His body was sprinkled with special spices, which are only available in this tavern. ”

A man with a rickety figure said to the Cavalier of Calth.

"Spices? Why didn't Prince Slekav let you poison his cup when you had this opportunity? ”

Knight Colt rallied his men recruited from the Land of Frost and complained that his superiors had done something superfluous.

"We've tried, and the spirits around the monarch killer can distinguish highly poisonous substances, and we've lost a lot of people in the palace for this." The man who followed the knight of Colt said in a hoarse voice.

"No matter, this is our only chance, the monarch killer left his personal guard and came to Nolan alone."

Knight Colt gripped the hilt of the long sword at his waist, then glanced at the rickety man beside him.

"After entering, drive away the drunkards in this shabby tavern first, and One-Eyed you will lead a team of people to delay Nolan's enforcers, for the sake of the blood of the orthodox royal family!"

The knight let out a low snort and poured into the tavern with his men.

He was about to draw his sword, tear out his voice and shout for the 'drunks' to get out of this bloody place... The knight's roar choked in his throat as he could see the situation inside the tavern.

This tavern called 'Hearthstone' has a very quaint décor at the main entrance, and there is an old feel to it on the wooden sign with the words written on it, which is no different from the façade of those taverns in the Land of Frost.

But the first time I entered the tavern, I felt that the Calt Knight was too big to exaggerate, and the floor area inside could no longer be described as an ordinary tavern.

The guests sitting in the tavern were not drunkards, and most of the nearly two hundred tables in the tavern were filled with spellcasters and dwarves, including some richly dressed nobles.

Damn it! It turns out that Nolan's nobles will also run to the tavern?!

But it was a pity that the knights of Colt did not see any scantily clad handmaidens beside the nobles, and the dwarves in heavy armor were all in piles.

"There it is!"

The rickety man beside him immediately judged where Shayl was.

Knight Colt shook his head and banished some strange thoughts from his mind, and an ice-blue spirit emerged from his side.

He is also recognized by the Frost Spirits and is one of the most powerful knights in the Frost Nation, unlike Shail... The Knights of Colt were an old king.

And the succession of the new king is inevitably too strange.

"Colter, get your men to do it." The rickety man urged with some urgency.

"Shut up..."

The Knight of Colt looked away from Shayl and looked at the man sitting across from Shail.

When he recognized his true identity, the Colt Knight was so nervous that he even became breathless.

"The rumors are true, that monarch killer really colluded with the demon!"

The Knight of Colt immediately recognized the man sitting across from Shail as a demon, or the highest rank of the Chaos Demon.

"Demons?!"

The rickety man was about to say something when the Chaos Demon stood up and walked slowly towards them.

"We're in big trouble."

Knight Colt stared at the Chaos Demon closely, he had fought with the Chaos Demon, and he would not forget how terrifying the guy at the top of the demon clan was.

"Uh... This isn't the first time this has happened. Qiao Xiu came to the group of people from the Frost Nation and looked them up and down, "You don't look like people from the Inquisition, are you going to smash the field?" ”

"Smashing the field?" Knight Colt didn't figure out what the Chaos Demon was talking about for a moment, but his gaze instantly turned to Shayl, who had a cold face.

"Monarchicide! You're secretly in the company of demons! He raised his voice as if he wanted the whole tavern to hear.

In other taverns, there were already people who had raised their heads to watch the excitement, but unfortunately, no matter how loud the voice of the Knight of Cort was, only a dozen casters raised their heads to take a look.

But they only glanced up, and soon their attention remained focused on the table in front of them.

What's wrong with this bunch of guys? The king of a country ascended to the throne with the help of the power of demons, this news is enough to discuss for a whole year, right?

"What's wrong with that?"

Suddenly, a voice answered the knight of Colter, who looked around and saw a spellcaster girl walk into the tavern.

Judging by the color of her hair and eyes, she should be a native of the Land of Frost.

"That monarch killer ascended to the throne with the help of the power of the demons!"

The Cavalier of Colt didn't understand where the spellcaster girl came from, possibly as a member of another team?

"Huh... It turns out that with the power of the demons, he can be the king of the land of frost, if it were really that simple, this country would probably have perished long ago, right? ”

"You—" Knight Colt choked up, but then he felt the gaze of the people around him.

There are still a lot of spellcasters from the Land of Frost in the tavern, and these spellcasters who can come to Nolan to study are basically the elite class of the Land of Frost, and the Knight of Colt must now grasp public opinion.

"The conspiracy between the demons and this monarchicide, sure enough, the previous king was also killed by the monarchicide on the charge of a judge, in order to summon that chaos demon, how many lives did you sacrifice? Could it be that the first king was also one of them? ”

"Shayle, when you return home, I hope you can make a newspaper and TV station or something."

In the end, Qiao Xiu finally couldn't listen to it anymore, not because the knight's words were harsh, but because he felt a little sad.

If the ability to create public opinion is compared to strength, then Qiao Xiu's strength is enough to crush the people in front of him into pieces.

This is like a crab dancing its teeth and claws in front of Qiao Xiu, Qiao Xiu's heart has no fluctuations, and there are only two thoughts in his heart, that is, steaming or stewing?

"And Ciri, stop and stop, he's not talking about you."

Josiu said as he grabbed Ciri, who looked like he was about to roll up his sleeves and beat the knight.

"Sure enough, you're also a fellow demon member?"

The Knight of Colt felt that he had won the battle, and that if he revealed what had happened in the tavern today, his majesty would be ruined.

"I remember you were Colt Skakiff?"

The expression on Shail's face did not change, and her cold gaze glanced around, and Shayl was worried that the dwarves around him had shown impatient expressions.

If the knight shouted a few more times, the dwarves would probably start wielding their hammers.

"Exactly, Monarch Searle, the evidence of your collusion with the demons has been conclusive..."

"I'm here to find my mentor, the Grey One."

Although Shayl knew that the other party was here to assassinate him, if Shayl escaped now, or killed them.

Public opinion in the Land of Frost will become even more uncontrollable.

"No one will believe your lies, and tomorrow everyone will know your true colors."

By the time the knight of Colt said this, a mist had already drifted around Shell, and it was clear that the king was ready to execute the man in front of him.

But unfortunately, even if he was executed, it would have no effect on public opinion at all.

Her action was still too reckless, but a little girl wanted to see her long-lost friend, and under the influence of this mood, Shayl didn't think much about it at all.

"That, Your Majesty Shail." Qiao Xiu looked at Shayl beside him and said, "See you at the ceremony in three days, please don't be assassinated before that, and no one will object to me shaking hands with you at that time." ”

“……”

Although Shayl didn't understand what Qiao Xiu was talking about, she just nodded slightly.

"Isn't this Shail?"

The Gray-Clad came to Shayl as if he hadn't seen anything.

"Mentor Lursk." Shayl gave a mage salute to the Grey Man.

"I'm guessing you're here for the Inquisition Matter." The gray-clothed man straightened his somewhat messy beard and walked directly among the knights, none of whom dared to make a move to the sage: "I'll take you to the embassy of the Frost Country, where the environment is cleaner." ”

"Hmm."

Shayl quickly followed the gray-clothed man out of here, not looking at Qiao Xiu the whole time.

The knights didn't know what to do, but the heavily armed dwarves weren't an ornament, so they had no choice but to leave here for the time being.

…………

Night.

"What if I mind if you shake her hand?"

Ciri curled up in the corner of the bed, wrapped the quilt around her body and entered the state of quilt essence again, while staring at Qiao Xiu, who was writing something.

"Are you still angry during the day?"

Qiao Xiu turned the ink pen in his hand, but his eyes were on Ciri.

She's been in this 'I'm not happy' state for a whole afternoon.

"I think it's the foolish people of the Frost Nation who are angry." Ciri said, "It's 577 years in the Nolan calendar!" They even stubbornly believe in the saying of the Holy Religion Country, all demons are very brutal, summoning demons to sacrifice human souls or something. ”

"Foolish? That tone sounded like a queen. Qiao Xiu got up from the desk and sat down beside the bed, "Ciri, it's only been two years since I came to Nolan from the Demon Realm, and it took these two years for the people of Nolan to recognize the Demon Clan, and the inherent impression of the people of other countries on the Demon Race is estimated to have not changed, not to mention the Frost Country, which has been an enemy of the Demon Race for a long time. ”

"I just think it's unfair! Why does the black cauldron of the Inquisition want the demons to carry it, those guys still take it as the truth! Ciri looked at Qiao Xiu's calm expression, "Aren't you angry?" They're scolding your race! If it were me, I would have beaten that guy into pixels with a staff. ”

"Beat it into pixels, please do it, Ciri... Your staff can't stand your toss. ”

Qiao Xiu glanced at the roof of the room, where a miniature Deathwing was spitting flames in anger.

It also proves that Heri is indeed angry about the events of the day.

"My words may be a little different in terms of substitution." Qiao Xiu said.

"Sense of substitution?"

"Would you believe me if I said I was a human before?" Qiao Xiu said as he looked at Ciri's gray eyes.

Although he came to this world and became a Chaos Demon, Qiao Xiu is essentially a Celestial Empire man on Earth.

If the people of this world said anything insulting to the people of the Celestial Empire, Qiao Xiu estimated that he might pick up a chair and throw it in the other party's face.

"Was it human before? What kind of setting is it from a past life? Recently, there seems to be a book of this type in the Fudo Library, and it is quite popular, which is the book "The Past Life Given by the Gods" written by Mother Denessa. Ciri was immediately intrigued when she said this

"It's... Pretty good. Qiao Xiu said that this sentence was completely against his will, mainly because the nun was too diligent, and the content of the writing was miserable.

"In short, I don't have much feeling about the demons themselves, helping the demons establish relationships with countries around the world, just to make my life more comfortable." After Qiao Xiu said this, he looked at Ciri again, "Are you deflated now?" ”

"No...... Whether it's what the Inquisition has done, or what those people have misunderstood about the demons, I am very angry. ”

Ciri said this, covering the sheet with her hand, and then wrapped it tighter.

"Really?"

Qiao Xiu sighed helplessly, and then put his hand into Ciri's sheet.

"Wait..."Ciri hadn't reacted to what was going on, even if her strength was beyond the average range of humans, she was not at all Qiao Xiu's opponent with the bloodline of the Chaos Demon.

Ciri, who was wearing light pajamas, was easily picked up by Qiao Xiu, because Qiao Xiu was hugging a part of Ciri's shoulders, so she subconsciously hugged Qiao Xiu's waist with her legs.

In this way, Qiao Xiu hugged Ciri, and her legs made Qiao Xiu feel a little unexpectedly fleshy.

When Qiao Xiu raised his head again, Ciri's cheeks were just a little above his side, his lips with a slight sense of crystal were a little uneasy, and the color of the skin on his cheeks was replaced by a touch of crimson.

"Suddenly... What to do all of a sudden? ”

The sudden movement made Ciri already in a state of blushing.

"Is it deflated now?" Qiao Xiu looked at the girl in front of him and asked.

Ciri could only turn her head sideways, and just as she was about to speak, she found herself gradually losing her balance.

Qiao Xiu still overestimated his balance ability, and before he could do anything, he just took a few steps back and stepped on something and fell backwards.

"You... Has it become heavier? ”

Qiao Xiu, who was lying on the ground, rubbed the back of his head, looked at Xili who was lying on top of him and said.

"Nope! Look there's not even a bit of meat here! ”

Ciri, who was straddled Qiao Xiu, showed off her slender arms, but before she could finish speaking, Qiao Xiu held her hand.

"Then prove it." Qiao Xiu said.
