Chapter 12: Lord of Shadows, Twin Dukes (Part I)

Devil?!

The moment he heard the word, Abner ignored the 'believers' behind him, as well as Jane's joking words. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Whether in this life or in the previous life, he had never heard the word 'devil' less. But he had only heard of it - he had never seen a real devil, either alive or dead.

However, unlike the Blue Star in the previous life, in this world, the devil is real - although he has not seen it, but in the stories of the bards, these evil creatures from hell are always secretly plotting all kinds of schemes to lure people to fall, in order to harvest souls, obtain treasures, corrupt society - and succeed in bringing the souls of the fallen to hell......

In contrast to these demons, who like to use intrigue in secret, there is another kind of demon from the abyss, chaotic and disorderly, but also very harmful to mankind, and to some extent more harmful, prefers to destroy people's bodies and souls directly and violently - the direct manifestation of which is the passage of the plane that is opened up without knowing when and where, and the countless demons that spring out of it. Every time a dimensional passage is opened, it is a huge disaster for the humans in that region and its surroundings.

But why did Miss Jane tell herself this information? Is it because she lives in Virgil?

Logically speaking, this kind of thing about the reputation of the kingdom will not be widely known. For example, the fact that the 'former' Duke Wacent, for unknown reasons, was completely eradicated, disappeared overnight, and then the title and title were abolished the next day in a low-key manner - if it weren't for Abner's father, who was also a mid-level official in the kingdom, he wouldn't even know about it.

As for whether those devil believers will include their own parents...... Abner felt that if his father or mother had become a cultist who believed in the devil less than a day after he had just arrived at school, it would be better for the kingdom and human society to perish sooner rather than later.

"Abner?"

Seeing that he was lost in thought (and began to wander), Jane exclaimed softly.

"What are you thinking?" Paris asked in a direct tone, with a hint of unkindness in her eyes.

"Uh...... I was thinking, this must be a very confidential matter, isn't it? Why did Miss Jane tell me?"

"Hehe, but it's not that classified—for us. Jane chuckled, "My first task this year is to assist the other powerful people in the kingdom in a few days to eliminate some of the low-level personnel of these devil believers. ”

When she said this task, a look of pride clearly appeared on her face, and she was obviously proud to be able to participate in such an operation.

"And to tell you about this is just in the right mind. If you strayed into the site of the purge without knowing it, whether it was taken back to investigate, or affected by those believers, or most unfortunately, it was 'accidentally' 'cleared', hehe, it's not a good thing, isn't it?. ”

"Of course, Abner, you'd better not mention this matter to others, after all, there are devil believers in the royal capital, and if too many people know about it, even if it doesn't cause panic, it will make people uneasy. ”

"Well, I understand, Miss Jane. ”

Nodding, Abner agreed.

"Well, goodbye. ”

"Goodbye, Miss Jane, goodbye, Miss Paris. ”

"Well, goodbye, little ghost!"

You're the little ghost!

......

At night, inside a street in the Virgil district.

Unlike other streets where bands of city guards and night watchmen patrol by, making reassuring sounds. Tonight in this street and around it, although there were dozens or hundreds of tall soldiers dressed in black full-body steel plate armor, and more than a dozen knights dressed in silver-white armor with a faint gloss of chain mail on them, it was very strange that both soldiers and knights stood motionless like statues, and no one made a sound.

And in the moonless sky above, there were also a considerable number of black shadows circling and dancing, bringing up gusts of air.

Not only that, but the buildings around this street are also pitch black, as if the people here are people who like to go to bed early and get up early and have good living habits.

And in the middle of the street, near one of the houses here, there were three men who seemed to be the leader. They

One was a tall man with short blond hair and a plain white swordsman's outfit - it was too dark for him to see his face.

The other was dressed in the same white priest's robes and wore a square hat on his head...... Well, women. The height is only the height of the former's neck, and the face is also difficult to see.

The last one was a ...... wearing the same black mage suit as Abner's Girl—Probably. Slightly shorter than the priestess, with beautiful, waist-length blond hair, still too dark to see her face. However, even so, those soldiers and knights who were hundreds of meters away from her still felt that the other party was really arrogant, and they felt ashamed of themselves in their hearts.

The corners of the clothes of the three people did not flutter at all.

"Mr. Kyle, and Miss Catherine, are very grateful to Sophie for being able to come and help rid these devil believers this time. ”

The woman in the priest's robe, who stood in the middle, spoke to the two people beside her, and the voice that echoed only around the three of them was pleasant, and seemed to have a faint, soothing effect.

"Just because of the order of His Majesty the King, Your Excellency the Holy Maiden need not be thanked. The tall man said lightly, his voice calm, as if unmoved, "Also, the current name under the next is Fett." ”

"Hmph, I just heard that there may be a devil here, to capture the experimental material. The blonde 'girl' snorted and said haughtily, "So you don't have to be sentimental - your information can't be fake, right?"

"This is information that the Duke of Soferland and the Inquisition have jointly reached, and there is no need to doubt the authenticity. Her kind polite words were said coldly by the two of them, and the Holy See Lady named 'Sophie' said with a wry smile - although she really wanted to fight, she felt that she was not afraid of either of them. But after all, it is the territory of the other party, and the commander-in-chief of this operation is also a man, and the Holy See owes the Noxon Kingdom a favor...... And the personalities of these two people are also somewhat eccentric - the woman among them is notoriously eccentric. It's good that the other party can come, so for the glory of the goddess, she should put up with their words.

Besides, except for words, the other party has always been very cooperative in action, and even made up for a few loopholes that they neglected, so there is really no need to conflict with these two people over this trivial matter.

"'Dispel idlers' and 'lethargy' have been used on everyone here, right?"

The man who is called 'Kyle' but calls himself Fett asks the 'girl' named Catherine.

"Do you still need to say it?"

The woman named Catherine asked rhetorically.

"Your Excellency, are all the others already in place?"

The man was also not angry by her attitude, and continued to ask the Holy Lady of the Holy See.

"Head Matvey and Bishop Koberus have already set up all the members of the Templars and priests on the perimeter. ”

The Holy Maiden of Sophie replied, as for whether the people of the kingdom have made arrangements or not, I believe that the man, as the commander-in-chief, will naturally not make low-level small mistakes.

"Then let's get in. ”

Glancing at the pitch-black manor not far below that looked indistinguishable from other buildings, the man who was the commander-in-chief said calmly. Then, take a step forward.

Behind him, Catherine, who was dressed in black, and Sophie, a saintess in white robes, waved their hands lightly, blessing the men with various buff spells and magic spells.

The right arm was raised high, just like Jane before, and an ordinary long sword suddenly appeared in the man's hand, and with his movements, the clothes on the three of them also began to flutter.

"Slash. ”
