Chapter 137: Debate
The next morning, Ryan walked out of his tent with a pale face, because of his bad stomach, he didn't sleep well all night last night, and his stomach was not stable until it was almost dawn.
Ryan moved around the clearing for a moment to see Moses and Nancy coming together, and since their relationship had been established, Moses and Nancy had already lived in the same tent at night, which didn't seem strange as two adults.
After seeing Moses' refreshed face and Nancy's face radiant, Ryan showed his trademark smile and said to Moses and Nancy in a joking tone, "How is it? When are you going to have a baby?"
"Nasty!" Nancy's face turned red when she heard Ryan's words, and Moses said unheardly, "What are you going to do with that guy yesterday?"
Ryan smiled slightly in his heart, secretly admiring Moses' kung fu in changing the topic, but since he talked about business, Ryan also put away his joke thoughts, he thought about it and said: "Two days of adventure in a row, everyone is a little tired, today is a day off, but you can't relax, you still have to take everyone to train in batches." As for the elf, well, bring it to my tent. ”
"Okay. ”
"Well, hopefully he's calmed down. Ryan said in a regretful tone, "I wonder why the most beautiful creatures of legend always show their arrogant side in front of me?"
Moses shrugged his shoulders and said, "There is always a gap between legend and reality. ”
Ryan waved his hand and motioned for Moses to go about their business, then turned and walked back to the tent. A few minutes later, before Ryan had finished eating the two loaves of bread in front of him, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Moses himself walked in with several burly warriors, carrying the bundled Serres.
Ryan waved everyone back, then crouched in front of Seres and pulled out a dagger, Serres's mouth was gagged, and Moses even wrapped strips of cloth around his face in order to let more people know his elf identity, only showing him a nose breath and a pair of eyes. After seeing Ryan crouching in front of him with a dagger, Seres closed his eyes in despair.
However, Seres soon sensed that something was wrong, as Ryan did not hurt him with a dagger, but instead cut through the strips of cloth and rope that bound him. Ryan's movements were fast, and in a few moments, Ceres's hands were free, and he struggled a few times before reaching out and pulling the strip of cloth off his face.
"Why don't you kill me?" Seres gulped in his breath and asked Ryan indifferently, "Kill me, and you won't have to worry about anything." ”
"What am I worried about?" Ryan slipped the dagger into Serres' hand, then walked back to the blanket and sat down, continuing to enjoy his breakfast, pointing to the bread and fruit on the other plate and saying to Serres, "This is for you, let's talk while we eat." ”
Serres was stunned for a while, only to realize that his stomach was already hungry, he quickly broke free from all the restraints on his body with his dagger, and then sat down opposite Ryan, picked up the fruit and took a bite of it.
"To be honest, I could have killed you with a single sword yesterday, but why would I do that?" Ryan said to Seres as he ate, "I didn't steal it, I came here as an accident, and the whole thing has nothing to do with me." ”
"Then how did you know that the Song of the Soul Suppression was stolen?" Seres finished eating the fruit in his hand in a few bites, stared at Ryan and asked, "Even if the entire Demon Moon City knows about this matter after the theft, no outsiders have entered the Demon Moon City for many years. ”
"You swear a poisonous oath to your goddess of moonlight first, promise not to divulge anything I tell you, and I will tell you the whole story. Ryan said, "First of all, I have nothing to do with the theft of the Song of the Soul, I just don't want to give away my own secrets." ”
Seres sat there and thought for a long time, not knowing whether he should swear this poisonous oath or not, Ryan finished his breakfast, and still saw Seres there in a daze, so he had to smile bitterly and said: "Can you elves be shrewd? You want me to prove your innocence, but you also have to prove yourself first." In other words, suppose you stole something, and then something happens, and you lose that thing, and now you are desperately looking for it, and you see that I know about it, so you kill people, this explanation is also very reasonable, right?"
"Shut up, I'm not going to do that kind of blasphemous ...... as a Luna Temple," Serres shouted as she opened her mouth.
"Where's the proof?" Ryan slowly interrupted Serres' discernment, then said slowly, "Who can prove that your words are true?"
"Hmph, the goddess will watch our every move, and we are absolutely ......"
"Stop, stop!" Ryan hurriedly gestured for Seres to listen, he thought about his words for a moment, and then said, "Then I will also make an oath that this matter has nothing to do with me, do you believe it?"
"How do I know if you're lying to me, who knows which god you worship, in case ......," Seres said, shaking her head.
"So, how can your oath convince me?" Ryan said sharply, "Not all elves believe in the Moonlight, do they?" I remember many years ago, a group of elves abandoned the blessing of the Moonlight Goddess and turned to the evil god Rose......"
Seres shouted as if he had been greatly insulted: "Shut up, don't let me and those depraved ......"
Ryan still said unhurriedly, "Shut up is you!"
"What are you talking about? You say our noble elves are stupid?"
"That's right. Ryan said categorically: "Why are you elves noble? You have three heads, nine arms, or are you so powerful that others have to submit? Why do you have to believe what you say, and other people's justifications seem to you to be a sophistry of criminals to shirk their responsibilities? I tell you, all creatures are created equal, and you elves may be lucky, but it doesn't mean that you can trample on the heads of other creatures with impunity!"
Seres was reprimanded by Ryan's words and his face turned red and white, he was very unconvinced of Ryan's evaluation of his race, and wanted to find out Ryan's shortcomings and refute it, but after thinking about it for a long time, Seres suddenly found that he couldn't find any reason to oppose Ryan's words, this discovery made Ceres's head confused, and he couldn't accept what Ryan said.
