CH.16 House Arrest, Hywig Kurd's True Purpose
"Hey, Soft, wake up! Soft......" Gilia's voice echoed in Soft's ears.
"Eh......" she slowly opened her eyes. I saw that I was lying on a large bed with luxurious decoration and softness.
"You've finally woken up. ”
"Let's not talk about this for now, can you get out of the way of me?" I saw that Gillia was riding on Ah Soft's body.
"Do you think I'm heavy?"
“...... Why, I just want to sit up, it will be easier to talk. Ah said weakly.
"That's right. Kylia stood up, then jumped out of bed lightly.
Ah Soft got up and sat up, and found that a golden bracelet was worn on his left hand. "What is this thing?"
"Ah, you found that Ra, this is the Ring of Strength, which was brought to us while we were stunned in order to seal our power. Gillia said very unhappily.
"So, we're under house arrest now?" Ah Ruan looked around, and the whole room was extraordinarily magnificent.
"Yes, that dead old man! I can't believe it!!!!" said Gillia as she picked up a pillow from the bed and slammed it out, and a beautifully crafted decorative vase fell to the ground.
"Okay, okay, calm down. Soft grabbed the furious Gilia. "It's already happened, and it's useless to make trouble. ”
"Oh, my little princess, her temper is still so bad. The closed door slowly opened, and Fate's Priest Hywig Kurd walked in with a smile.
"Big bastard!" Gillia quickly grabbed another pillow and threw it at him. The sudden attack hit Hywig in the face. Unbalanced, he fell backwards to the ground.
"Hungry...... It hurts, you treat your lovely elder like this?" he slowly stood up and rubbed his ass. "Calm down and listen to my ......"
Before he could finish speaking, the second pillow had already rushed towards him like a meteor. Another wonderful bully, Ah Soft on the side couldn't help clapping. "Good and accurate technical ......"
"Don't throw it away, I'm afraid of you, okay?" said Hywig pretentiously. Unexpectedly, Gillia was already holding a chair and looking at him with burning eyes.
"Hey, hey, this thing can't be littered, it's going to die. Hywig said, stepping back in fear.
"Alright, Gillia! Ah Soft on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore and grabbed Gilia. "Let him finish his sentence. ”
"If you have something to say, let it go!" Gillia put down the chair in her hand with great reluctance.
"Have you finally calmed down?" Hywig wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Do you know what you brought back this time?"
"My friend, what's wrong?" said Gillia coldly.
"Is the Demon King also a friend?"
"Why, can't the Demon King be friends?"
"It's not that it can't be, it's that it's impossible!"
"Why not?"
"The demon race has been a race that wants to destroy the world since ancient times, and the demon king, as the leader, is the axis of evil in this world, how can he be friends with you, a little girl?"
"I don't want to be wordy with you! Hurry up and let go of Brother Lei! And let go of Ah Soft!"
"There must also be a limit to willfulness, the matter of you bringing the demon king to Yugartrahi without permission has reached the ears of the nobles above, I arrested him to protect you, if you still want to continue to be your fifth princess, please cooperate with me, saying that you brought him into the city in order to capture the demon king. ”
"Villain, I misjudged you! What a fifth princess! I don't want it! It's shameful to betray others in order to protect yourself! It's despicable!" said Gillia viciously, as if she was going to swallow him.
"It seems that there is nothing more to say. Hywig, who had been smiling, put away his smile. "Tomorrow, I will personally escort the Demon King back to the royal capital, you can reflect here for a few days!"
"Get out! I don't want to see you again!" Gillia threw something at him, and walked out of the room in frustration as the bullets flew everywhere.
When the door closed again, Gillia finally stopped what she was doing, and sat down on the ground.
"I'm sorry, it's all my bad ......" She suddenly sobbed when she was originally arrogant. "I ...... I didn't expect ...... Will it be like this...... Really ......"
This can make Ah Soft mess up all of a sudden, after all, she is the worst at dealing with girls' tears. "Don't cry, I can't blame you for this, Brother Lei will find a way to get out, he must ......" Ah Ruan didn't know how to comfort her for a while, so he simply hugged her in his arms, only to feel that Gilia's weak body was constantly trembling. It can make her so sad, it seems that this fate sacrifice has been such a trusted person for her, Ah Soft thought to herself, and then gently stroked Gilia's head with her hand, her silky smooth hair, which made Ah Rou feel very comfortable to touch. Finally, her mood seemed to have stabilized, and her trembling body gradually regained its calmness.
"It's so fragrant, and it makes people feel so relieved. Gillia buried her head in Asoft's chest, and sniffed hard.
"Don't rub it...... It's a little itchy...... "Ah Soft wanted to help Gillia up, but she hugged her tightly.
"Just hold me for a while. Gillia raised her head slightly, her teary eyes casting a wistful look at Ah Ruan.
"Well, that's all I can do for you. Gillia buried her head in Ah Soft's arms again, looking at the girl in front of her so haggard, she couldn't help but feel a cramp in Ah Soft's heart. Brother Lei didn't know what the situation was now, Ah Ruan thought so, and couldn't help but sigh again.
At the base of the giant tree Yugartrahi, a prison half-submerged in the sea was built there. This is where the elves consider death row prisoners to be held, and when the tide rises, the bitter and icy sea water pours into the prison, flooding most of the prisoners, so at this time, the prisoners must constantly swim for their lives, keeping themselves close to the ceiling so that they can continue to breathe. Because of such a harsh environment, the prison is also known as the Hell of Water.
At night, when the tide had just receded, the whole prison was filled with the fishy smell of seawater, and in the deepest part of a dark cell, a man sat soaking wet. Four stout chains held his limbs firmly, and the walls of his cell were covered with countless sealing runes.
"Swimming with a chain is really exercised!" the man said self-deprecatingly, and the dim light in the prison illuminated the man's face, none other than Brother Lei. "Hey, hey, I'm going to hang on a few more times. He grumbled as he wrung his clothes out with his hands.
At this moment, footsteps were heard in the dark corridor. Brother Lei raised his head slightly, looked at the deep corridor, and saw Hywig slowly walking out of the darkness.
"What a rare guest, why did you come here, the Great Priest?" said Brother Lei with a smile.
"Being bound by such a large number of spells, and being able to speak so easily, is worthy of the Demon King. Hywig looked at Brother Lei calmly.
"Are you kidding? Do you think these things can really bind me?"
"Of course I know that if you, as a demon king, really want to leave, it's a simple move. Hywig opened the door to his cell and walked in slowly.
"As a generation of sealing masters, there should be more than that, right?" Brother Lei stopped smiling, and his tone became sharper.
"I just want to know, why do you obediently tie your hands and arrest them, don't you want to involve the people who are traveling with you?"
"......" Brother Lei was silent.
"Why did you come here with you if you knew it would affect others, do you think Yugatrashi wouldn't be aware of the existence of a demon king?"
"Okay. I don't want to say anything more, you can do whatever you want with me, but I hope to spare the other two girls. ”
"It's ridiculous, a demon king would intercede for two girls......" Hywig burst out laughing.
"Do you think I'm joking?" Brother Lei's eyes flashed with murderous aura, and the entire prison began to tremble slightly.
"Here's to you. Hywig suddenly took out an armband inlaid with red gems from his hand and handed it to Brother Lei's hand.
"This is ......" Brother Lei looked at him puzzled.
"This is my latest work, an improved version of the Blood Seal Stone, you can seal your power when you bring it, you can remove it to be lifted, and you can use it repeatedly, unlike the previous one that could only be used once. ”
"Why did you give me this? I'm already a prisoner, and this kind of thing doesn't make sense to me anymore. ”
"Hey, why did you sentence yourself to death so quickly. It turns out that His Majesty the Demon King is such a spineless person?"
“......”
"I have already arranged for Gillia and Ah Soft, you don't have to worry, I will personally press you to go to the royal capital tomorrow, and then you can find a way to slip away by yourself." ”
"But you ......"
"It's okay, I've been in this fateful position for so long, it's time to step down, and all the responsibility is on me. ”
"Why?"
"Why? Speaking of which, you're so much like one of the most hated guys in my life that I can't leave it ......alone," Hywig said as he suddenly fell into deep thought. "It's so annoying, and it reminds me of unpleasant things. ”
"Yes, in that case, thank you for your help, and I will definitely repay you for this kindness. ”
"There's no need to repay them, protect those two girls well, that's the best reward for me. Hewig said, slowly walking out of the cell, his figure slowly disappearing into the depths of the hallway. "By the way, there should be another high tide in the middle of the night, don't sleep too hard~"
"Hey, hey, you still want to swim, please, change my room, hey!!, don't you hear me!!!hey!!"
In the entire prison, the shouts of Brother Lei echoed~
