Chapter 25: Intent

"Harry, it's getting late, you go back to bed. www.biquge.info"Festria took Kalia and they left after saying this, and handed Harry over to the servants of the manor, who brought Harry to his room and thoughtfully prepared a set of clothes and a rich supper for him.

Harry lay on his back on a large soft and comfortable bed, with a small cart parked next to the bed, on which a rich and tempting dinner was placed, and a set of gray clean clothes was placed on the lampstand, but Harry was in no mood to pay attention to these, his dark pupils silently looked at the white clean ceiling, and did not speak.

"Yo, what's wrong? A joking voice came to my head.

"I said, is it really good for me to do this? Although I have lied, this heavy feeling in my heart makes me very uncomfortable, and even I am a little disgusted with myself, hehe. Harry laughed at himself and saw the happy expressions of Master Festeria, Sister Kalia, and Uncle Nabo, who all trusted me and I lied, and the feeling of betraying everyone condemned Harry's conscience.

Obviously, I said that I would not deceive my companions, but now? I am full of lies and deceive everyone, this feeling is really sad, lying is actually a very easy thing, you can move your mouth.

"Hey, I said are you stupid, this little thing is annoying like this, you don't need me to repeat these things a second time, you chose to deceive them in order to protect your important companions, the safety of your companions' lives and small lies, you say which is more important?" the voice said.

"I know all of this, and I'm just ashamed of what I did. Harry said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, okay, I really don't understand why you humans have such boring thoughts, forget it, you just need to remember that you lied to protect your friends, and everyone will understand your distress one day, don't worry. The voice said bitterly comfortingly.

He's right, I'm lying for everyone, I'm sacrificing to protect everyone, everyone will understand one day, there's no need to worry about it, Harry sat up from the bed, and suddenly thought to himself.

"You know, eat well, then take a shower or something, don't treat your body badly. When the voice had said this, it fell silent.

Harry smiled slightly, thinking that maybe the demons weren't that scary, and that they cared about others.

And on the other side......

"Everyone should know that this is the territory of the Duke of Myron, and it is also an area very close to the emperor, but it is only a territory away, but you should also understand the meaning. Festria spread out a map on the table, pointing to the corner of the map with her white-gloved fingers.

The map depicts the area where the empire is located, and the empire is bordered by the sea to the east and surrounded by its own countries, which is a veritable coastal state, and it is also one of the great powers with a large area and strong military power.

"In this way, their power is really everywhere, most of the strongholds that exterminated them were far away from the imperial capital, very remote places, but this time we found another stronghold of theirs here, which means ......" The long-haired Ibette pointed to the rest of the map, and finally to the point that Festria had also pointed to, looking at you with a solemn face.

"They have infiltrated the vicinity of the imperial capital. The wave of brown refined short hair said as he looked at Ibette with his hands on his chest.

"So, there may be people within the empire too?! After all, the castle that was destroyed by Lord Festeria this time was a place where an earl lived, and the problem became not easy. The bald-headed Punk said worriedly with his hands propped up on the table.

"This is already warning us, and we must be careful in the future, but there are many doubts about it, Kalia, and give them the information so far. Festeria said to Kalia on the side.

Kalia nodded, took out a stack of documents from the suitcase she was carrying, and handed them evenly.

"It's! hey, hey, hey. It can't be. After a while, Nabo looked at the information in his hand and said in disbelief, cold sweat was already breaking out on his forehead.

"Lord Festeria, are they doing this for any purpose?" said Ibet, putting down the information and looking at Festeria.

"What are their intentions? Punk touched his bald head and asked suspiciously.

"This is a document made by those who have been bewitched by them along the way, and you should find a common denominator, that is, why most of the people who are bewitched by them, most of them are big businessmen or famous nobles in a certain place, why there are no ordinary commoners, this is also too strange, of course, and their purpose is to obtain a large number of means of wealth, and they do not hesitate to do things that harm the people, just to collect money, all of which makes us very puzzled. Festeria said, covering her forehead.

"If we're not mistaken, they must be doing something, but we don't know what they're going to do. Festeria then looked at the crowd at the table.

"For now, we can only wait for news from the Knights of Heavenly Punishment and the Knights of Adventure. Ibert said with a solemn face, because there was no other way for them to do it.

"What do you think of Harry?" said Festeria.

"He, this kid, how to say, is a very smart and sensible fellow, or a very affectionate and righteous person, I can see from the look in his eyes. Nabo didn't understand why Festria was asking, but he told the truth according to his impression of Harry.

"Judging by his words and deeds, he is a very honest child, very kind, and of course, very naïve. Ibert said lightly.

"What's wrong? Why did you suddenly ask about Harry? Punk touched his shiny head and said suspiciously.

"It's okay, just asking, don't worry, everyone is gone, it's late at night, and we have a lot of things to do tomorrow." Festeria said with a smile and left the room with Kalia, leaving everyone in a daze.

In the corridor of the outer corridor in the dead of night, through the pillars of the corridor, the moon in the night sky was still so bright, and Festeria looked at the moon outside the pillar while walking, and then sighed, maybe I thought too much.

"What's wrong with you, Mistress Festeria?" asked Kalia behind her as she saw Festeria sigh and worry.

"It's nothing, Kalia, if you could bring me a glass of polya juice, maybe I'll be in a much better mood. Festeria paused, turned back and smiled, jokingly.

"Okay, wait a minute. Kalia smiled and said respectfully, and left, leaving Festeria alone in the hallway.

"Harry, don't let me down. Festria looked back at the moon in the night sky and said lightly.
