Then Wei Ji bowed politely to the emperor: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty, but I am burdened with the title of misfortune, I am afraid that it is not suitable to stay in the Jinxi military headquarters to affect the reputation of your army." I'm the Reaper's Advisor, and the one that makes this nickname stick in front of my name is the Order of the Holy Light. I had to go to them for a theory to really wash it away. ”

The Emperor never expected that the two teenagers would so simply reject his thoughtful kindness. Although the princess fully understood their decision, she still felt extremely reluctant.

Someone has to continue along the path that Teacher Qiao Luya has not finished.

The Four Knights of the Holy Feather, who had outstanding achievements in the past, did not hesitate to turn into beasts in order to investigate the truth in the shadows.

So what we can do is at least not to live incognito for the sake of a comfortable life.

"Then the thank you gift can only be ......," the emperor pondered.

With tears in her eyes, the princess replied aloud, "I can't use up a lot of gold coins! ”

The emperor could have given the deposit certificate to Jinxi Bank, but he was worried that it would not be available to the mainland, so he finally gave a large box full of gold coins. Yuri was dazzled, thinking that the salary of a mere D-class mission would break through the sky like this, it was simply unprecedented.

The princess drove Yuri and Virgy out of the palace with the cash box in a carriage. Yuri looked at the huge cash box and thought to himself that no one could travel with this huge amount of money, but luckily with Flora's space magic, it was easy to put away all the gold coins.

But then he thought that for the rest of the journey, there would be no space magic, and there would be no Her Royal Highness the Princess. He had long been accustomed to the princess's delicate and pleasant words along the way, and had gone through hard battles with her full of gunsmoke and fire, but he had long been unaccustomed to the unbright journey before meeting her.

Yuri finally felt the true feeling of parting at this moment, and his heart ached instantly.

He could have embarked on his journey early, but he ended up wandering around Sorantil for a long time. said that he wanted to live a few days of leisure, but in fact, he was just trying to postpone the day of parting a little later.

In the midst of another day of wandering with nothing to do, General Steelwing descended from the sky in a steel wing, and said to Yuri and Virgil, "I've been looking for you for a long time. The Spirit Wind Knight Arlan came to the Xinghuang Palace, and brought a person with him, hoping that you will also return to the palace as soon as possible to discuss. ”

"Who is Arlan with you?" Yuri was a little nervous.

"Benalis, the Night Witch. General Steelwing replied with a solemn expression.

It turned out that one second before the Lord of Despair was sucked into the Otherworldly Gate, the boys were recalled by the Archangel's feathers, but the Spirit Wind Knight did not carry the feathers on him, so he kept them until the end.

In the end, Benaliss did not completely sever her connection with the Lord of Despair, and was bound to be swallowed up together. Arlan hesitated for just two seconds, and finally decided to cut open the purple veins on Benarys's body, leading her out of the gate of the Otherworld, and riding the strong wind to soar into the sky.

"One of the reasons is that if Benarys were swallowed up like this, I don't know if it would come back to this land one day in the future. And the second reason is that I saw a clear light in her eyes at the end, as if the dark side of her soul had faded. ”

The second reason mentioned by Lord Allan made the hearts of everyone present feel terrified. Benaliss is just a dark consciousness, and this consciousness is just a human girl attached to a shell, once when she fought with the god knight, there was a situation where consciousness did not return to the girl's appearance. On the other hand, Princess Flora also had a dark seed in her heart, and if she didn't get the encouragement of her friends, the seed germination would take away the control of the princess's body, making her become another witch.

"In short, if the dark consciousness is parasitic on someone, she will become a witch. On the other hand, if the dark power can be stripped away, the girl may return to her original heart. And Benalis, when faced with the crisis of destruction, subconsciously chose to flee and gave up the dominance of Layla's body. So I took it a try and brought her back. ”

In the palace, the knights of the gods also stood in golden armor.

Without hesitation, the Divine Knight said, "The witch who has been infected by darkness and brought so many disasters is hopeless. Her best salvation is to be destroyed in the light. ”

This made the princess, Yuri, and the guard general glare.

Just like the Ranger General, was dismantled by the Holy Light Purification Technique without you saying anything!

But Arlan would never dare to be angry and dare not speak, she smiled coldly, and looked back at the Divine Knight: "My lord, I feel inexplicable, what to do with Benalis, how is it your turn to decide? You did not participate in the final battle to defeat the witch, strictly speaking, she is my captive, I came to discuss with His Majesty the Emperor, but I did not ask for your opinion." ”

The scene was tense for a while, and Emperor Jin Xi was in a dilemma, he didn't want to offend the leaders of the Knights of Light, but he also didn't want to offend the Winged Terran hero Arlan, who was also a Seven Holy Horsemen. But in his heart, he is more inclined to completely destroy Benarys, after all, a lot of reconstruction work depends on the Light Order, and trying to exorcise demons for the girl, drive away the dark consciousness and return her to her original heart, lest the night be long and dreamy, if you are not careful, it is difficult to imagine what kind of disaster will happen, it is a completely thankless move.

But the princess thinks that she must save Layla if she can, because if she herself has never had redemption and hope, she is no longer the hero Princess Flora, but should be called "Moloni the Fallen Witch". She knew that her heart was infested by darkness, and her soul had fallen into the abyss of despair, leaving only the terrible taste of the karmic fire of revenge and killing.

So the scene was deadlocked.

Yuri and Virgil arrived at this time, and said unceremoniously to Arlan, "Speaking of the right to dispose of it, Lord Arlan, you are not qualified to decide the fate of Benalis, right?"

Arlan was puzzled and said angrily, "Yuri, what do you want to say, this kid?"

Yuri smiled and said calmly: "I distinctly remember that it was I who gave Benaliss the final blow, made the Lord of Despair sink by a millimeter, and finally broke the balance of gravity and upward force. I'm the one who brought down Benalis, and of course it's up to me to decide. ”

Yuri pointed to the unconscious Benalis, and said loudly: "Of course you should find a way to expel the dark will for her! At the bottom of this guy's consciousness, there is a poor girl who is crying helplessly! She is a gardener girl, in the dark abyss prison, she has always been kind to each other, refusing to kill each other, naively thinking that she wants to lead everyone to the end. I don't want her to disappear if I can. ”

The Divine Knight asked in a gloomy voice, "What did you say? You even excused the witch? Even if Layla's soul was still there, it might have been broken and had no value to recover." ”

"Layla's soul, at least she should have the final say!" Yuri said indignantly, "I believe that even in the depths of darkness, there are still sporadic souls of light that will still choose to redeem themselves. If this were not the case, it would not be impossible for Her Royal Highness the Princess to defeat the demons in her heart and stand here now, and it would be impossible for the Ranger General to awaken at the most critical moment and open up a path to victory for us. ”

Virgi nodded and said firmly, "I also believe that not leaving any soul into darkness is one of the most fundamental teachings of the God of Light. ”

Jin Xi's ministers objected, saying, "Then Benalisy doesn't need to pay any price! She started the war, brought so many casualties and losses, if we can't execute her publicly, how can our justice be demonstrated?"

Arlan's eyes were cold: "Of course Benaliss must die. As soon as I extract the dark consciousness, I will bring the dark side of Benaliss back to the Stronghold and beg the Storm Goddess to destroy it once and for all. That's the price she should pay. ”

"But her incarnation as Benalis's host is an original sin that she cannot get rid of!" retorted the Divine Knight.

Even Arlan couldn't refute it for a moment.

"Layla may be guilty, but her guilt was only in the hellish witch advent ritual, and she didn't make it to the end. Yuri lowered his voice, patted his chest, and said resolutely, "In that kind of ritual, all the girls turned into demons, and no one was spared, and Layla was the last one, if Layla's crime cannot be forgiven, it is equivalent to thinking that everyone in this world has the original sin of being incarnated as a demon, so it is unforgivable." The regent who made Benarys has reaped the consequences, and Benaryse will eventually die, and as for Layla, her fault, if I can, I am willing to pay for it with my small credit!"

Yuri took out the bank deposit slip hidden in his arms, and Virgy didn't hesitate to take out his share.

The Emperor was shocked that Yuri had exchanged his life for today's glory and wealth, but it was incomprehensible that he could give up without thinking and only want to save the soul of an ordinary gardener girl.

"Were you and Layla ever friends?"

"Even though Layla used to live in Holy Thorn, I never knew her. Yuri replied.

"And what is this for?" the Emperor's beard trembled slightly.

Yuri smiled softly: "Because my teacher Qiao Luya, if he was still alive, he would definitely make the same choice." ”

Arlan smiled at Yuri in relief.

But the princess felt anxious for Yuri, and said loudly: "Yuri, why can't you get along with the glittering gold coins!

The Guards General and the Steel Wing General were very embarrassed.

The princess turned to beg the emperor: "Father, you can rest assured that Benalisa and Layla will be handed over to them, Benaryse will save Layla, isn't this the most perfect ending?
