Chapter 46: A Disaster from Heaven

In Ian's previous world, natural disasters such as droughts, floods, hurricanes, hailstorms, volcanoes, earthquakes, and tsunamis that were triggered by natural changes or man-made factors and could cause great damage to people in a short or long period of time were called natural disasters.

However, in this world, natural disasters do not mean much more than that.

Since more than 1,200 years ago, when the demons in the abyss tore open the gap to the mortal world, the history of mankind has become a history of struggle that can be sung and cried.

In this thousand-year-long defeat and struggle, referring to the classification of the capable, the world has also divided the demons into upper, middle and lower positions according to the absolute difference in strength. However, just as there are the strongest beings among the human race who are completely above these ranked, there are also some extremely rare beings among the demons who are far above the superior demons.

1,200 years ago, the ancients called these beings Demon Kings, and 1,200 years later, the people of the world call them natural disasters.

The transcendent existence of these demons has a huge body that even a big demon will look small in front of it, and its power through such a body is often extremely terrifying, far beyond common sense, and it can almost really do all kinds of great feats of destroying mountains and rivers and destroying cities and states in myths and legends.

But even so, the terrifying power that is enough to make them feared by the world is not the real reason for them to be called a scourge.

They don't need to be hostile to humans at all, and they don't need to use their enormous power to deliberately slap mortals to death who are like ants to them. They only need to pass by the human city-state, and they don't even need to go inside, which will bring devastating disaster to that city-state.

Just because their very existence is a natural disaster, it will bring fires, floods, hurricanes, all sorts of other incredible calamities!

That's why the world will name them after natural disasters, indicating that they are disasters from heaven.

At this moment, Ian is not at all surprised why Camilla is so frightened, because there is no one in the world who is not afraid of the "natural disaster", which is the great enemy of human existence!

Since 700 years ago, when humanity barely gained a foothold under the attack of demons, whenever there has been a situation of the fall of cities, then the cause of its fall must be a pale and unified word - natural disasters.

Even though many people have never really seen natural disasters nowadays, the fear of natural disasters in the world has been deeply engraved into the bone marrow with the continuation of the bloodline.

In fact, when Phil and Camilla came to this conclusion, Ian was already remorseful, he really didn't expect that just a momentary soft-heartedness would bring such a huge disaster to the Northern Regions!

He clenched his fists tightly, and the back of his hand was bruised from overexertion, though he could still deceive himself by reassuring himself that it was just a guess. But the stronger premonition in my heart told myself vividly that this is probably the truth of the matter!

"Ian?" Fei'er noticed the teenager's state at this time, and she gently put her hand on the other party's clenched fist, "You idiot don't think it's your fault for causing this consequence?"

"Isn't it?" Ian closed his eyes and shook his head slowly, "I caused all of this. Tina's mother, the defenders of the Great Wall of the Northern Regions, and the student named Andy all died because of my momentary soft-heartedness. And maybe more people will die because of this, and even the Northern Regions may fall because of this!"

Looking at Ian, who was caught in self-blame, Camilla forced herself to pull out an awkward smile and persuaded in a fluke tone: "Ian, these are just speculations, not necessarily the case." And ......"

"No, that's the truth!" the silver-haired boy suddenly opened his eyes, revealing an incomparably sharp gaze, which immediately startled Camilla.

However, Fei'er was not stunned by such a gaze, and she accentuated her tone slightly: "Idiot, don't think too highly of yourself! We are not omniscient and all-powerful gods, we are all mere mortals who are hindsighted!

"Maybe you're right, but I still have an unshirkable responsibility," Ian said with more firmness than ever before, "I'm going to have to get Lilith out anyway!"

"Are you sure you're okay with your current state of mind?" asked Fei'er, frowning.

"Instead of feeling sorry for yourself, it's better to seize the moment. That's what you told me. Ian looked directly at the black-haired girl, and the corners of his mouth drew a cold arc: "But I don't deny it, I do feel sorry and angry now!"

"It's good that you understand it yourself. Phil nodded a little hesitantly, and then asked the Sakura-haired girl, "Camilla, I remember that your painting is good, can you paint a portrait of Lilith?" ”

"Well, that's fine, I'll get out as soon as possible. The Sakura-haired girl nodded solemnly.

"Fei'er, you have to reveal this matter to the Grand Duke. Ian asked.

"Hmm. The black-haired girl admitted, "After all, this matter is too important, and it would be better if my father searched for it." ”

"But in whose name should I tell him?" Ian frowned, the Grand Duke would not stir up a crowd because of the inferences of a few young men.

"Of course it's yours!" said Phil as a matter of course.

"Huh?"

"Indeed!" Camilla chimed in, "In the name of the Black Sword Saint, His Excellency the Grand Duke would indeed believe it. ”

The corners of Ian's mouth twitched after being stunned. It was the first time he knew the full name of Fei'er's name, and he knew that this name had such a great faith in the Northern Regions. Moreover, the real Sword Saint went to reveal the situation to the Grand Duke under the pretense of being a fake Sword Saint, this kind of thing is a little strange no matter how you think about it......

"Okay. After a moment of silence, Ian glanced at Phil, and after confirming the girl's intentions, he said a little awkwardly, "It was me who caused the trouble, and it is only natural to do this." ”

After a heavy "um", Fei'er announced, "Then it's decided." ”

......Seeing that the two had reached an agreement, Camilla opened her mouth with a little hesitation, and when she saw that the eyes of the two turned to her, she said as if she had made up her mind: "I hope I can tell the seniors about this while I have a farewell party for Mentor Adolf." ”

"You have to understand that it's dangerous. A few of you may have been targeted. Phil reminded.

"That's why I had to tell them that tomorrow is the weekend, that there are four doors to leave the school, that it's hard for me to inform the seniors, and that the meeting place is in Uptown. I don't think Lilith will be able to do it during the day, and at night, when everyone knows about it, they will return together. ”

"Hmm" Feeling the girl's determination, Fei'er pondered for a moment and said: "If you act together, then it is indeed relatively safe, but ......."

"That's right. Thinking of something, Phil turned to look at Ian again: "Ian, you can stay with Camilla and protect her when she leaves the academy." ”

"Hey, is that okay? Let Ian protect me or something, isn't he your bodyguard?" Camilla was surprised.

Ian, on the other hand, immediately understood what Phil meant: "If Lilith is indeed going to prioritize the members of the original trial team, as we suspected, then maybe this is a chance to catch her, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"Camilla, when is the party?" asked Ian, turning to the Sakura-haired girl.

"Well, ah, it's Sunday night. ”
