Sicily, Tebelle collar.

In the sky, there was a gloomy cloud, and the storm that had just left yesterday seemed to be pouring down again.

Li Ang's mind moved, and the war horse suddenly stopped on the hillside like a finger.

These tireless, master-controlled puppet creations are the finest mounts, and it is hard to imagine any army that can sustain a single charge if a cavalry army were to be formed.

He looked at the castle on the hill from afar, and from here, he could only see the high platform at the top of the castle.

As he departed, Baron Tebelli stood there watching him.

It's been half a month in the blink of an eye, and he has gone from a trainee knight with more strength to a demon hunter who is about to break through to the transcendent level.

It is worth mentioning that they came from Dante's hut to Syracuse, and when they returned, they went straight from Syracuse to the Witches' Forest.

The round-trip route forms a triangle, which is why it passes through Tbelley, not by intention.

Lagaia had suggested that it would be more polite to rush back to Dante's house first, as usual, and then let Lady Angelina pick them up.

Although Lagaia had some conflicts with Mr. Dante on the issue of Leon's "Grass Trial", she was also very clear in her heart, whether Dante gave Leon a lesson or promised her to participate in this demon hunt, and his kindness was far beyond the scope of the transaction.

However, Dante rejected her proposal on the grounds that he was "responsible for the safety of the two of them" and that he would "save time on the road".

The three of them walked down the hill, and Dante turned his head and smiled goodbye to the two: "Ahead is the Witch's Forest, and I will send you here." ”

Lagaia said politely: "Thank you, sir, for your careful escort along the way, since you have arrived at the door, sir may as well go to the Witch's Forest to have a look, so that our sister and brother can talk about the friendship of the landlord." ”

Dante smiled and refused, "Thank you Miss Lagaia for the invitation, but I still have some trivial matters to attend to, and I won't even be going back to my residence during this time." ”

He looked at Leon again: "I should have been traveling far away in the last three days, and the teaching will be temporarily suspended, in addition to digesting the harvest of this experience in these three days, you should also remember to discuss the matter of the grass trial with Miss Lagaia and Ms. Angelina, and give me an answer in three days." ”

Leon nodded: "I will." ”

"Then we'll see you in three days. ”

Dante waved his hand goodbye to the two of them and drifted away.

Although he didn't know the space spells, when he reached the realm of the high sequence, the speed of his journey was naturally far faster than that of the puppet war horse riding Li Ang.

Leon disbanded the horse that Dante was riding, turning it back into a pile of dead wood, and then asked, "Sister, since you have already arrived here, do you want to see your father?"

Lagaia snorted coldly, "I don't have a father. ”

Li Ang had an expression that was not what I expected, and chuckled: "Then you wait for me, my father asked me to go to the Witches' Forest to ask my mother for help, and it has been so long, I have to give him an explanation." ”

At the very least, he should tell Baron T'Bailey what he knows about the anti-epidemic knowledge of the future.

......

Li Ang walked into the town, and in the little half a month since he left, there have been great changes here, and the corpses placed in the streets and alleys have disappeared.

Most of the people were hiding in their homes, there were few pedestrians on the roads, and the whole town seemed depressed, but it didn't have the lifeless, apocalyptic scene it had before.

"Stop, who are you? Outsiders are not welcome here!"

Two patrolling guards greeted him.

Li Ang turned his head, and the two of them were suddenly surprised: "Young Master Leon!"

"What about my father?"

"Your Excellency the Baron is right ahead, young master, do you want us to take you there?"

Li Ang shook his head and said, "No need, I'll go find him myself." ”

Far away, Leon saw the figure that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

"Father. ”

Leon shouted.

Baron Tebelli was surprised: "Why are you back?"

Half a month was gone, and Baron Tebelli's face was obviously a little haggard.

"Well, didn't you ask Lady Angelina for a cure for the Black Death? I met with Lady Angelina and brought back a cure for the Black Death. ”

Baron Tebelli frowned, "Since you have met Lady Angelina, how can she let you back?"

Leon was stunned for a moment, hearing this, Baron Tbelley didn't seem to want to come back at all.

Baron Tebelli sighed helplessly: "It's so dangerous outside now, how can your mother be willing to let you out, my original intention of letting you go to her is to let you stay inside honestly." ”

Li Ang was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I left the Witches' Forest this time just to tell you how to control the Black Death, although witchcraft and potions cannot cure the Black Death, there are still other ways to control the intensity of the epidemic." ”

Baron Terrbelli, who had long expected that witchcraft would not cure the Black Death, did not show a look of surprise, but said, "You say, I will remember." ”

"First of all, not only humans can spread the Black Death, but rats and fleas on them can also spread the disease, so it is necessary to cull the rats intensively......"

He carefully explained with Baron Tebley the methods of preventing the Black Death that he had compiled with modern knowledge.

Finally, he added: "The spread of this knowledge may shake the authority of the church, so Father, you must be mindful of this, and it is better to wrap the cloak of theology in these methods of preventing the Black Death, or not to let it spread altogether." ”

Baron Tebelli smiled: "When it is your turn to teach me, I will naturally grasp the proportions." ”

He touched Li Ang's head and looked pleased: "After all, he has grown up." ”

"Now that the matter is over, let's go back. For more than 20 years, you have not been with your mother, and you should be with her for a few years, but you must remember that time cannot be wasted, and martial arts cannot be wasted. By the way, learn more skills from your mother, and if you don't have more skills, even if our family is broken in the future, you will have a way out. ”

Leon hesitated, but still didn't tell Baron Tebelli that he had become a witcher, but replied, "I will." ”

He thought for a moment, and then said, "This place is so close to the Witches' Forest, I will come to see you often in the future." ”

Baron Tbelley smiled: "This is not close to the Witches' Forest, for more than twenty years, your mother has seen me from the future, and sometimes the idea of looking for her is always blocked by the big forest...... Does she still blame me?"

Li Ang thought for a moment, shook his head, and said, "She doesn't blame you. ”

It's just that I don't really have any feelings for you anymore.

If you hate, it means that you still love.

But when Lady Angelina mentioned Baron Tebelli, her tone was very calm, probably for an immortal species like a witch, the relationship between humans and humans should not be taken to heart.

Baron Tebelli couldn't help but laugh and said, "That's good, she still has a long future, and she shouldn't always be burdened with resentment." ”

He was a little embarrassed, hesitated for a long time, and asked, "Since I have met your mother, you should have also met your sister, right?"

"Lagaia. ”

Baron Tebelli chuckled, "What a good name, Lagaia, she should be beautiful, right?"

Leon nodded: "Of course." ”

"Get along with her, although she is your sister, but she was born a little earlier than you, the girl's temper may be a little worse, you have to be more tolerant......"

Baron Tbelly's babbling voice kept coming.

Leon sighed secretly, and he didn't know what had happened in the first place, it was worth Baron T'Bailey to abandon his wife and daughter.

"Do you remember what I said?"

Baron Tbelli straightened his face and said solemnly.

Li Ang nodded hurriedly: "Remember." ”

He stretched out his hand and patted Li Ang on the shoulder: "Since you are already a man who stands up to the sky, you have to support this family and take care of your sister and mother." ”

"I will. ”

"Alright, that's all that needs to be said, let's leave. ”

Baron Tatebelli began to issue an eviction order.

Leon said goodbye to him, "I will come to see you often." ”

......

After Leon left, Baron Tebelli let out a long sigh.

He stood still, not moving for a long time.

"To this day, I still have no regrets about my decision, after all, Angelina's temperament, I know very well......"

"I just regret that I didn't have time to hold my daughter a few more times. ”

After some time, footsteps were heard, and a girl in a cloak walked past him, her long flaxen hair and face under her hood flashing in front of him.

"Wait, are you?"

Baron Tbelli stopped her, staring intently at the stunning maiden, puzzled.

"Passers-by. ”

The voice is cold, and the words are like gold.

Baron Tebelli nodded, and couldn't help but worry: "There are few places where outsiders are allowed to walk around now, you are traveling alone, and you may encounter robbers, is there no one with you?"

"What's the matter with you?"

Ragaia said coldly.

Baron Tebelli was choked speechless, but for some reason, he didn't feel the slightest bit angry.

Seeing that the girl's back was about to go away, he suddenly realized something, and his breathing became short.

He walked forward quickly, "Wait a minute. ”

The girl turned her head with a cold expression: "Is there something wrong with you?"

"I ......"

Baron Tebelli took a deep breath and said, "I have a daughter I haven't seen in a long time, and if memory serves, she should be as old as you now. ”

The girl glanced at him coldly: "You have never had any daughters. ”

She waved her cloak, and her figure curled away like smoke.

A panicked voice suddenly sounded from the corner: "God above, what have I just seen? a witch who has cast an evil witch and disappeared from before us! I have known for a long time that the women cursed by the devil will surely violate the Tbelley territory again." ”

The person who came was Father Sean, who was still wearing a black sacrificial cloak today, and said excitedly: "Your Excellency, you must immediately gather the knights under your command and launch a holy war against the Witches' Forest!Wait, we alone are not enough, those evil witches have extremely terrifying magical powers, and they must report to the Church, and ask them to dispatch the Judgment Knights who specialize in dealing with witches to the Witches' Forest to capture them!"

Baron Tbelley frowned: "Where did the witch come from? ”

"No way, she clearly is!"

Father Sean danced and gestured to the sudden disappearance, convinced that he was not mistaken.

As long as this "real" witch is caught, he will make a great contribution, and it is very likely that he will go one step further and be promoted to the bishop of the city.

Sadly, he had been hiding here for thirteen years as if he had been abandoned.

A hint of violence flashed between Baron Tebelli's eyebrows, and he said coldly, "You are wrong. ”

Probably so carried away that Father Sean, who had even begun to look forward to a better future, did not notice the change in the Baron's tone, and retorted: "Your Excellency, I am only forty years old, and I have not yet reached the point of old and faint. ”

Poof.

The sword pierced through Father Sean's chest, and the clean draw of the sword didn't even give Sean the slightest chance to react.

He leaned into Father Sean's ear with a blank face and whispered, "I said, you read it wrong. ”

Father Sean opened his mouth, a creaking sound creaked out of his throat, and his eyes gradually lost focus.

......

Lagaia, who deliberately left a little trouble for Baron Tebelly, couldn't help but feel a trace of remorse in her heart.

She was not a particularly headstrong woman, and after being impulsive, she feared that Baron Tebelli would be charged with "collusion with witches".

wanted to make amends, but Leon had already returned by this time.

She could only pretend to wait for a long time, and asked casually without showing a clue: "There are clergy in this territory, you just go back, if you are detected with demonic power in your body, the consequences must be serious, right?"

Leon shook his head and said: "Of course not, there is only one priest in the town, Father Sean, he is just an ordinary person, and he has no backing behind him, if he is not smart enough and knows how to judge the situation, he can always happen to get stuck in his father's bottom line, just with the things he did, his father should have been unable to help but find a reason to kill him." ”

"Oh, that's good. ”

Leon frowned and said, "And the relationship between the witchers and the church is not as bad as you think, according to Mr. Dante, the vast majority of the witchers have connections with the clergy of the church, and many regional bishops will even take the initiative to contact the witchers and ask them to replace or assist them in completing the exorcism." ”

Lagaia said angrily: "So it's clear that we witches have nothing to do with demons, but we have to bear notoriety, and you demon hunters obviously use demonic powers, but they are complicit in the church?"

Leon smiled awkwardly, he didn't dare to answer this question, he always felt that after he came back, Lagaia's mood was not quite right.

Seeing that Lagaia angrily dropped her mount and walked into the Witches' Forest, Leon also disbanded her mount and chased after her.
