PS2: I've been in a burnout period lately......

――――――――――――――――

"Ahem, now, let's summarize all the information we've gotten so far—even though we haven't even been in Heidelberg for a night."

Merlin coughed twice and tapped his fingers on the table as he looked at the other four people sitting around the inn room, casually throwing a soundproof barrier (the same one he had lost during the previous battle), enveloping the entire room in it.

"First of all, there's the question of demons."

Merlin thought for a moment, then said, "As you saw just now, that warrior clearly showed demonic tendencies - such as high-speed recovery and the abyssal aura that that guy carried. When that guy didn't show his vindictiveness, I even thought the other party was just an ordinary fighter......"

"So, those demons are very hidden?" Reiner asked.

Merlin shook his head: "That's not it, as long as you are a priest, you can feel that aura from the abyss, but it's a pity that the Gaunt Empire has always been at odds with the priesthood." At least I didn't find a church in Heidelberg......"

Nova raised her hand weakly and said, "The church is still there, but it's in the middle of nowhere, in the corner of Heidelberg. ”

Merlin nodded: "Okay, then I'll go over tomorrow to take a look." Holy water should be very useful to demons, maybe we can get some. ”

Merlin looked at the four people who were listening to him carefully, sighed and said, "You know, the current situation is not optimistic. As I said on the road earlier, it is possible that the demon has infiltrated the nobles of various countries...... Now it seems that this has come true, and the situation is not optimistic. Casually using demonized warriors in the center of the Gaunt Empire, you can already see how powerful the other party is. ”

"Besides, aren't they afraid to reveal their identities?" Merlin subconsciously rubbed his fingers, his brows furrowed, "Could it be that they have made any big moves, are they ready to do it?" ”

Then, Merlin thought of a terrifying possibility, so he turned his head and asked Nova, "Do you know what the Hyde family gathered so many people from the branch family for this time?" ”

Nova replied without thinking, "Of course, it's to commemorate the day when the Hyde family was made a nobleman!" ”

“…… All the people of the branch family will come? Merlin was more sure of the conjecture in his mind.

"Of course." Nova said.

The trio of players realized something at the same time, and their faces changed in unison.

Merlin stopped knocking on the table and asked with a solemn face, "What do you think...... Do they have a chance to wipe out the top of the Hyde family? ”

Liu Jingjing nodded helplessly: "Absolutely no problem...... It's only been a few days since Hell Lord Fana escaped, and they're already preparing to attack an empire? ”

"No...... It should be said that they have already attacked the various empires, and now they are just slaughtering a batch of fat pigs that have been raised a long time ago......," Merlin said, "The Lord of Hell has just broken through the seal, and he urgently needs to recover his strength, and the quickest and easiest way is to ...... Blood Sacrifice. ”

"It's a good option for them to start a war."

――――――――I'm the legendary dividing line――――――――

At the same time.

"Damn, what are you doing?!"

The current head of the Atlas family was firmly pressed to the ground by two warriors, and he writhed his body angrily in an attempt to break free from their control, but with only the peak strength of the fifth order, it was impossible for him to escape from the two people who were also fifth orders.

"You guys! You have betrayed your family! He roared loudly, and the fighting spirit on his body was uncertain, and it could burst out at any time. Seeing that the situation was not good, the two warriors looked at each other, and one of them took out a strange-looking bracelet from his bosom and fastened it around the other's arm.

Then, the fighting energy surging in the Atlas family master suddenly became much smaller. He obviously realized what this strange bracelet was, so he lost his voice and shouted: "The current limiting bracelet?!" Isn't this kind of thing from a demon already destroyed by the Holy See even how to make it?! ”

The two warriors did not speak, but restrained each other's arms more forcefully.

"Yes, this kind of thing has long been destroyed by the Holy See."

A voice came abruptly from behind the head of the house, and he turned his head to see a guy that surprised him.

The head of the house gritted his teeth and said, "...... It's you, Ebola. Why are you doing this?! Hasn't your son already embodied your excellent bloodline and been admitted to Tristine School of Magic?! ”

A middle-aged man in a red and black aristocratic dress gracefully raised the teacup in his hand and raised it to the head of Atlas's family from afar - Ebola smiled contemptuously and said, "You know what? I don't need you to prove my bloodline, I'm already superior to you......"

Ebola's face distorted: "You always felt that my existence had become a drag on the Hyde family, trying to squeeze me out and take away our rights - now that I have the power, you have the shame to come back to me to form an alliance - do you think this is possible?!" ”

The louder he spoke, the louder he became, and at last he burst into a maniacal laugh.

"Hahaha!! I want my rights back! No, I should have more with power!! You should all surrender at my feet! ”

The head of the Atlas family turned paler and paler, and he couldn't help but say, "Ebola. Osiris! Do you know what you're talking about?! You're treasoning! ”

Ebola's wild laughter paused slightly, and he curled the corners of his mouth again, revealing a non-human smile: "Yes, I want to rebel." As long as you're my person too. ”

"How is that possible?! I won't be with you! The other party roared.

Ebola shook his head, regained his previous graceful posture, and said, "No, no, no, I mean ......" An ominous red glint flashed in his eyes, which made the hair of the head of the house stand on end.

Then, after Ebola said something, the head of the Atlas family turned pale and hung his head weakly.

The other party laughed, but where he didn't notice, the blue gemstone necklace on the man's chest glowed slightly red.
