Chapter 249 is "faith" or self-deception

"Sequelae?"

Leon frowned, not feeling anything like that at all.

The description of the new talent [Divine Physique: Red Knight] in the Demon Hunting Codex is a bit vague, and for now, he doesn't feel what more abilities he has at all.

But at the same time, he didn't realize that he was missing anything.

It was as if the materials used to forge his new talent had not disappeared at all, but he did feel that he was in very good condition now, and the phenomenon of pain in the back of his head from time to time caused by the overdraft of his mental strength before had completely disappeared.

Scati asked, "Do you have any special feelings right now?"

Li Ang shook his head: "I just feel a little unreal, I'm just in the sequence, I'm already a demigod?" I used to think that this title was still far away from me." ”

This feeling is like I just became a small clerk today, although I have a backer above my head, and I can be promoted sooner or later, but the next day I jumped from a small clerk to the department level, even if I am assigned to a remote city, I still feel very unreal.

Scati was a little puzzled: "What's untrue?"

"I always feel that legendary characters like Achilles and Hercules can be called demigods, right?"

Scati said earnestly, "You will be a legend in the future, and louder than the legends of each of their demigods." ”

That's right!

Leon smiled dumbly: "That's right, speaking of which, the winter goddess Scati is also a legendary figure, so what do I have to feel unreal." ”

Scati: "......"

Convex (θ‰Ή)

"Ha, I'm kidding you. ”

Scati's tone was calm, as if he didn't care about the ridicule in Leon's words: "You better get ready to deal with these elves first, they look at you like a god." ”

"That's terrible!"

Leon looked at the crowd of people gathered around.

Everyone's faces were filled with excitement and shock, and in a desperate situation, they reversed the situation, successfully turned the tables, and defeated an entire demon army......

It's like a dream!

The elves stopped talking, they had too many questions to ask.

For example, are you the legendary Red Knight, what happened to Lady Nasha, why did the Phoenix King say that Lady Nasha has fallen, and so on.

But no one spoke first, and they were in awe of the knight in front of them, dressed in a cloak that seemed to be dyed red with demonic blood.

"Get out of the way!"

The ranger general Kaisha, who was riding a white unicorn, with a bloody body, jumped off his mount, lined up the crowd, and walked slowly towards Leon.

It can be seen that her prestige among the elves is very high, whether it is a ranger general or an elven mage, they all bow their heads when she walks.

She stood in front of Leon, pressed her left hand on her right shoulder, and then bowed down and said, "Thank you, Red Knight, your exploits are amazing, and I am ashamed of my previous distrust of you. ”

Li Ang smiled and shook his head: "You didn't do anything wrong, and there is no need to be ashamed of such a trivial matter." ”

Kai'Sa said respectfully, "Next, please come back to Lothern with us, and we will have a banquet to celebrate today's victory." ”

Banquet?

Leon frowned.

To be honest, he didn't want to have much to do with these Aine El Elves, to be exact, he didn't want to have anything to do with everyone in this world.

Because in his opinion, the fate of this world is already sealed.

He planned to travel in this world for a while, hunt demons, collect the demonic talent of his spiritual tolerance threshold, and then melt the talent of the Luna Divinity and the Body of Managar through the talent furnace.

With that done, he was going to leave.

Leaving this world may be difficult for others, but for Leon, who can disguise himself as a demon, it is not too easy.

The demon legions came from the east, and as long as he followed the path he came, he would find the Purgatory Corridor sooner or later.

Scati said in a flat tone, "Go ahead, it is said that the Al Ain have a scabbard called the Voice of the Forest, and if you can get it from them, you can put a new seal on Avalon and make it more obedient." ”

"You're egging me on?"

"I'm just stating the facts, Lady Nasha has watched you in the kingdom of God for a long time, and He understands your needs very well. ”

"Why didn't you say it earlier?"

"It's the same if you say it early and say it later. ”

"Of course it's different, if you said it earlier, I would have brought the scabbard over before defeating this demon army!"

"You're not so shameless. ”

"I have!"

Scati was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I don't understand, why do you always portray yourself so despicable?"

Leon said categorically: "Because I'm not a good person in the first place, Scati, don't always show how much you know me, you're just a machine spirit of mine!"

"I'm sorry, but I trespassed. ”

Scati's tone was still calm.

But I don't know if it's an illusion, Li Ang always feels that she is a little dazed.

This is also human nature, and anyone who says this will feel unhappy.

But he didn't apologize, as he said, Scati was just a machine spirit of his, and he didn't want her to do something superfluous.

"Your Excellency?"

General Kaisha's voice woke Leon out of his trance.

He didn't hesitate any longer, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll attend your banquet, although I think this celebration is a bit out of place." ”

Kai'Sa was a little puzzled: "I think it's very timely, after the war, everyone needs to relax their tense nerves." ”

Li Ang shook his head: "But the war is far from over. ”

Kai'Sa looked slightly stunned, she lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "Anyway, we have to spend tonight first, Ayn El is not good at war, I hope they have time to lick their wounds." ”

"Hmm. ”

Leon was noncommittal.

Back at Lotherne, the road was spontaneously lined with elves, who saluted and bowed as if to a god as Leon approached.

This made Leon extremely uncomfortable.

But I have to say that Ayn El's elves are generally tall-looking, and they are all quite good-looking, and they look quite eye-catching - although the washboard is the majority.

However, beauty did not attract much attention from Leon.

There are too many beauties he has seen, if nothing else, let's just say that those tree elves in the Witch's Forest, except for a little smaller, any one is taken out, and they are all stunning beauties in the outside world.

"Red Knight!"

On the side of the road, a young elf broke free from his mother's embrace and stumbled towards Leon.

The child's eyes are clear and clean, and even the hardest-hearted person can hardly keep himself strong when he sees this scene.

The same goes for Leon.

He squatted down and touched the young elf's long dark green hair, which felt very soft and smooth, without a hint of roughness: "What's the matter with me?"

"We will defeat the demons, and good will triumph over evil, right?"

She raised her palm-sized little face, her eyes full of adoration and admiration.

Li Ang was slightly stunned, hesitated slightly, and still said, "That's not right." ”

The cold words made the atmosphere that was still happy instantly freeze.

Leon looked at the elf's big eyes, and said seriously: "Winning or losing has nothing to do with justice or evil, the weak will not become strong because of righteousness in their hearts, and the strong will not become weak because of evil in their hearts, stop believing in any nonsense that evil is invincible, only the strong can win." ”

"It's... Is that so?"

The elf's expression was a little confused, and Li Ang's words were obviously the opposite of what she had heard before.

Leon swept the stunned faces around him, shook his head, picked up the elf, and handed it back to her mother.

Kai'Sa followed behind Leon and asked in a low voice, "Why can't you fool her, she's just a child?"

Leon's tone was a little snarky: "I thought you would understand that from today onwards, there will be no 'naivety' at Lothern. ”

Kai'Sa retorted in a hurried tone: "This is not naΓ―ve, but the belief that supports us to fight! We must believe that we can win, otherwise, we have no need to fight." ”

Leon wanted to say that no matter how hard he struggled, the outcome would not change.

In the face of the demon legions, humans can only run!

But he didn't say it, because he realized that he was like a coward who was bent on escaping from the awe-inspiring Japanese army that had invaded China.

Talking sensibly and pouring cold water, but isn't that because this is not your home at all?

If this is Huaxia, the place where he was born and raised, will he still be as rational as he is now?

The atmosphere was solemn, no one spoke, only the crisp footsteps of iron boots on the marble tilesβ€”as if people were not about to hold a celebratory feast, but to go to war again.

Leon finally spoke, "Lady Kaisha." ”

"Huh?"

The unsmiling Ranger General looked earnestly at the knight who had pulled on his mask, his eyes full of inquiry.

Leon organized the language and said sincerely, "I want to say that you are right, you will winβ€”at least, I believe you can do it." ”

For Li Ang's words, the female general was obviously a little surprised.

She was stunned for a moment, and then she was a little at a loss and said, "Thank you." ”

"You're welcome. ”

Li Ang didn't know whether this was the so-called belief or self-deception, he had always been assertive, and he felt confused for the first time.

...

The place where the elves held their feasts was in a garden in the center of the city, and in the center of the garden stood a familiar statue.

It's Lady Nasha, the patron goddess of Lothern, the god of fire and knights.

Leon held a silver tray and stared at the statue as he tasted the elves' dishes.

I have to say that Ms. Nasha has somewhat refreshed his understanding of gods, he never thought that there would be such kind and benevolent gods in this world.

It's a pity......

If you hadn't been targeted by demons, the world would be a beautiful place.

Leon turned his face and no longer looked at the statue of Lady Nasha, but concentrated on the taste of the spiritual dishes, which were mostly vegetarian, but there was no shortage of various meats.

Moreover, he discovered a point in the process of eating, all the food he eats will be broken down into energy the moment it enters the abdomen.

He no longer needs to eat to sustain his life, he only needs to absorb energy, and he can survive forever, and his life has changed from the collapse of his body to the immortality of his soul.

According to Lady Angelina, at the level of demigods, the lifespan reaches thousands of yearsβ€”and after thousands of years, demigods do not die due to physical aging, but their souls continue to age, and thus gradually move towards their twilight years.

In other words, he has completely left behind his old human body.

Behind Leon, a crisp voice rang out.

Leon looked back and found that it was the pious priest who had summoned himself into the world, Lady Nasha.

Beludanti asked solemnly, "Your name is Leon, right?"

"That's right. ”

"Starting today, all of Ain El will chant your name, you are the Red Knight, the successor of Lady Nasha, the new Patronus of Fire and Knightsβ€”you will lead us through the darkness, and we will always follow you, no matter what the future is dark or the process is cruel. ”

Don't talk nonsense, I'm not!

"Madam Priestess, I think we have some misunderstanding. ”

Leon's face changed very quickly, he didn't want to be in such a mess, he didn't even want to protect the medieval world, let alone such a strange other world that had just arrived.

"Where do you get the faith to resist the endless demons?"

"We have the Phoenix King. ”

"Can these demigods or true gods you are talking about deal with the lord?"

"No, you can't. ”

The lord is the second order of the high order, and even those main gods, who are in the realm of the gods, are very difficult to resist the attack of a lord.

The God King may be able to defeat a lord, but the King of the Gods is long gone.

Leon pondered for a moment and spoke, "I heard from Lady Nasha that you have treasured a scabbard called the Voice of the Forest. ”

Beludanti wondered, "Yes, you need it?"

She spread out her hand, and a long, narrow wooden scabbard suddenly appeared in her palm.

The texture was fine, and the edges were inlaid with black metal bars, and Leon could feel that the scabbard contained a rather large and peaceful energy.

"Hmm. ”

Beludanti placed the scabbard in Leon's hand: "Then it's yours now." ”

Li Ang's eyes widened in astonishment.

"Is there anything wrong?"

Beludanti looked at Leon's expression a little confused.

Leon shook his head, and with a wave of his hand, he summoned the magic sword Avalon, thrust it into its scabbard, which had eaten and drunk.

He made up his mind that if Beludanti wanted to do something for her, he would directly refuse with a cheeky face, but from the beginning to the end, Beludanti did not make any requests.

This made Leon feel a little uncomfortable.

He maliciously speculated that this woman was really sinister, and would actually use such a means of retreating as advance.
