Chapter 31 / Writing about the Righteous Man

"Also, I want to remind you that if you surrender now, then the wounded in the pit can still be saved, and if it drags on, I don't guarantee that they won't suffocate to death. After saying this, Evan Ian stood on the edge of the giant pit with one foot and kindly reminded the other party.

Miles looked at him, the anger in his heart had nowhere to vent, and he almost gritted his teeth.

But Miles quickly realized the point of the other man's words.

Evan Ian...... It's this youth?!"

However, Miles instantly reversed his own opinion - since the person in front of him was the black-blooded heretic, then his actual age was only 15 years old, to be exact, just a teenager.

Miles observed intently, and by the moonlight, he could indeed see that the person in front of him was extremely similar to the person in the portrait.

It's really me......

The remaining Black Knights stepped out from behind Evangel, each carrying three bloodied captives, revealing themselves in the shadows of the streets.

Miles glanced at the three people who had passed out, a man and a woman, and a child, but they were the owners of the hut that had been blown up before, and the spy agents developed by the church in White Rose City.

"Even the children are not spared...... It's a black-blooded demon......" Miles couldn't help but sneer, "and what do you say about the wounded being saved...... Obviously he was born a heretic, but he still has to disguise himself as a saint, and you have not learned any of the virtues of human beings, but you have carried out this boring hypocrisy to the end. ”

Evanian frowned, although from the beginning, he didn't think he could convince the other party to surrender, but Miles's words still made him a little unhappy, "Qingfeng Technique." He muttered in a low voice, and cyan flames ignited from his fingertips, staggering toward the depths of the crater. When the elemental fire touched the bottom of the pit, it exploded with a "bang", setting off a gust of wind that blew out the smoke and exhaust fumes deposited at the bottom of the pit.

It wasn't until he had done these things that Evan Ian looked back at Miles: "I didn't expect the inquisitors of the church to say such boring naïve things. Ever since I was 3 years old, I have faced numerous threats and assassinations, including those of you who are members of the church. No one has ever opened up because I am a child, and the age gap between me and that child is much greater than the gap between the Pope and me. ”

Speaking of this, Evan Ian spread his hands unhurriedly: "Or are you, uncle, different from them, will you stop and leave because I am just a child?" Let me say in advance, if you really plan to evacuate Nanling, I will send you away and will not stop you." ”

Hearing Evan Ian's words, Miles fell silent, knowing very well that he was not a good person. To be honest, before he knew that the person in front of him was Evan Ian, in the face of at least nine truth-level knights, he once retreated in his heart.

But...... The person in front of him is Evan Ian!?The Pope's Hall and the Inquisition are ready to kill Evan Ian at all costs, taking advantage of the disagreement between the Emperor and Silver Rose!

If Miles can kill him and get out of the way, then let alone be promoted two levels in the Stigmata Knights, as long as he is willing, even if it is directly to wash away the stigma and restore his free body, it is not impossible!

As for his subordinates' surnames? What was that? He never cared!

Miles raised his hand and pressed down: "Kill him." ”

However, no one moved.

The Stigmata Knights looked at each other, they knew very well the identity of the enemy in front of them, and they also understood the horror of the nine Truth-level Great Knights, and now they couldn't even do two to one...... Kill him, Miles, why don't you just say let's die?!

Evan Ian looked at Miles' left hand frozen in the air and almost laughed, Hey, are these assassins here to be funny?

"Since you don't plan to surrender, let's do ......"

Evan Ian raised his hand with a smile, but before he could say the last word "yes", he suddenly felt a wave of magic power on his side-

More than ten meters away, in Miles's eyes, anger burned coldly, and in the next moment, the unconscious man at Evan Ian's feet exploded.

With a "boom", the human body expanded, exploding from the inside, and the shock wave caused by the divine magic, wrapped in flesh and bones, turned into shrapnel, crackling and hitting the black knights' whole body armor.

The Stone Shaping Technique in Evanian's hand turned the ground into cover, and the round stone shield that rose up in an instant blocked the human bomb for him, and no one in the Black Knight was injured in the explosion. However, when Evanian dissolved the spell, he saw that the hostages on the ground were only three pools of rotten flesh, and his eyes couldn't help but be gloomy for an instant.

Miles looked around at the black-robed knight beside him, his eyes were equally gloomy: "Kill him." ”

This time, no one dared to disobey the order, and the black-robed knights turned into shadows, and the soldiers were divided into three ways, from the top of the huge crater, as well as from the left and right sides, and pounced on Evanian.

In the face of the church knight who jumped over the pit and pounced directly at Evanian, a black knight took a step forward and jumped up in an instant.

There were three Stigmata Knights who chose to jump over the pit, and there was only one Black Knight, but through the gaps in his helmet and armor, the Black Knight could see the deep fear in the eyes of the other party.

The moment he staggered with the first Church Knight, the Black Knight handed the sword in his hand forward, and the opponent's sword sparked and shattered in front of the armor on his chest, and the next moment, the opponent's head was already separated - the blade that was passed through the gap between the helmet and the breastplate easily split his cervical vertebrae.

The black knight let go of the long sword and let it fall into the pit with the corpse, his outstretched left hand instantly grabbed the second knight's cloak, and used the huge momentum of the forward leap to spin three hundred and sixty degrees in the air, as if wielding a sandbag, and smashed the knight in his hand hard at his last colleague. The two black-robed knights who crashed into each other screamed and fell into the crater, and after dealing with the three church knights in one go, the black knight himself, who had lost his momentum, also fell freely into the pit.

It's naïve to want to compete with the Black Knights?

Evan Ian commented noncommittally on this short battle, compared to the lightning battle directly ahead, the church knights who were entwined from both sides were more difficult to deal with, at least the black knights could not easily deal with these dozen high-level warriors as easily as they did in the air battle with three church knights.

From the deep pit, there was the sound of battle with long swords colliding, and it seemed that the black knight who had fallen into the pit could not jump up again in a short time. There were only two of the Guard Knights beside Evan Ian at this time.

On the other side of the pit, after ordering his subordinates to attack, Miles himself did not move. His and Evangel's gazes intertwined in the air, and there was no smell of gunpowder in the air, but there was a cold killing intent permeating each other.

“...... Sure enough, I still can't like you gods. Evan Ian was silent for a moment, and finally spoke, "That's just a child, and his mother is from Southridge...... Only that man's physical strength suddenly fluctuated......"

Evan Ian couldn't tell what he felt at this point: "If I hadn't tied them together, at least the two of them wouldn't have to die......"

Miles snorted coldly: "You should be glad that you tied them together, without those two meat shields as a buffer, the power of the magic explosion is enough to knock you down the pit." ”

Evanian's brow furrowed deeply: "...... If you can say such things, do you and the church you represent still intend to call ourselves good and righteous?"

In Evangel's heart, he knew very well that he was not a villain, but he had never known what to do if he wanted to kill his church in the name of punishing evil. To use an analogy, he feels like an innocent wronged person, the enemy is the police and the relatives of the victim, even if he has suffered an unjustified injustice and has to fight with them in order to protect himself, but hatred is such a thing...... The feeling in Evangel's heart is more of a deep sense of helplessness and powerlessness.

However, now Miles has broken Evan Ian's heart, Knetting, the nuns of the church in Wenning District, and even said that Kate Kirsner's stupid and cute paladin gave him a good impression, challenging his little inner bottom line-

"What a naïve question. Miles laughed mercilessly at Evan Ian, "Does it matter if I'm good or evil?"

"In other words, does it really matter whether our church is good or evil?" Miles held down the long sword, he didn't plan to wait any longer, "In this world, if there are evil people like me, there will also be good people like the chief leader, but even if there is an evil person like me, there will be occasional times when the conscience is discovered, and the head of the group will not deliberately do evil, but there are not necessarily harmless small problems in him." ”

"Even if it's an empire that claims to be righteous, and a church that persuades people to do good. Since they are also composed of all kinds of human beings, they will also have all kinds of complex appearances like human beings, and if I really have to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, I can only answer you-"

"Victory is justice!"

Miles swung his sword—

"Holy Sword Technique!"

The dazzling sword light exploded in front of Evangel, and when the sword light fell, Miles had already jumped over a distance of more than ten meters without hesitation, and slashed at Evangel with his sword: "So give me peace of mind to die!

Swords and swords clashed, sparks and sword lights exploded in the night, and a black knight stood in front of Evan Ian, fighting with Miles. Tossing and turning, the sword light staggered, and the figures of the black-armored knight and the silver-armored inquisitor quickly staggered, gradually turning into two silver and black streamers, but it was impossible to tell who was who.

Caught under the armpit by another black knight, evading the direct attack of the Holy Sword Technique, the hat was blown off by the huge shockwave, and the hairstyle was a little messy, Evanian, stood on the ground again.

"Is it a king or a loser......" However, Miles's last words unlocked the mustard in Evan Ian's heart, "It's not bad to think like this." ”

"Pure goodness does not exist after all...... I should have figured it out a long time ago. Evan Ian sighed, "Maybe it's because I've been so comfortable lately...... I'm a little scared of getting my hands dirty again......"

That's right, it's like the train derailment, if there are 10 people on two tracks, and there are 5 people on the other, which one would you change?

In this case, many people will choose to keep the original track of the train and leave it as it is, because when you choose any road, you will get your hands dirty, and it is best not to choose.

In the hands of every hero, there are countless people with surnames, kings and losers, and the victors write history.

In Suzo's previous life, these phrases were often derogatory. But Evan Ian knows very well that this is the truth.

Hill Taylor thought he had a talent for the right direction, but he never thought that way.

He has been on a path to change the world for nine years now, and he is constantly looking at his achievements repeatedly, his heart full of pride, but at the same time, his inner turmoil is getting heavier and heavier.

Sometimes, recovering from the excruciating pain caused by the extraction of mana, he was sore, lying on the ground unable to do anything, and he would quietly wonder if this would be the punishment of fate in the dark, or the curse given to him by the gods?

He could not deny at all that in the revolution he initiated, the established destiny of countless people was changed, the poor could become rich, the rich would become poor, the serfs would be freed, the farmers would go bankrupt, and the merchants would gain power, and the advantages of the trading houses would be squeezed.

If one person goes to heaven, the other will fall to hell, which is the law of equivalent exchange, but it also means that without expanding the cake itself, no matter how the power holder distributes the cake, someone will starve to death.

So in order to keep everyone fed, Evanian did whatever it took to launch a revolution to develop the productivity of Southridge and promote industrialization. However, in this series of orders and measures, can he really guarantee absolute correctness?

Suzo knew he couldn't. He had only seen the "right" world that no one else had ever seen, but he didn't know how to take the right path, this world was too different from his previous life, and he was just "crossing the river by feeling the stones".

But...... Although Evan Ian doesn't think of himself as justice, if he loses even the courage to make a choice, then he won't choose to change the world in the first place.

Yes, since the change has begun, it is necessary to kill people or wage war.

He'll follow it through!

PS: Needless to deny, the protagonist is a hypocritical idealistic bastard, typically eating from the bowl and looking at the greedy guy in the pot.
