Chapter 13: I don't want to ask

Has the Wings of Judgment done their mission, or rather, the Demon King, is he dead? If not, where is he now?

Edward said he didn't know, he really didn't......

Audley accidentally missed something when he recounted his story. There are two completely blank periods in his story, and there is no reason why Arthas's keen mind should not be aware of the existence of loopholes.

The first loophole, how exactly did Emilia escape from the enemy's ambush?

The Knights of Ten were able to escape because the traitor sacrificed himself at the last minute to save his companions, but ...... The brave have no companions. When she returned from the Demon King's Castle, she should have been alone.

So, how did she escape?

The second loophole, is the Demon King dead?

I don't know if Arthas deliberately avoided it, or if he didn't think about it at all, he didn't say a word about the whereabouts of the Demon King in front of Audrey.

Since he didn't ask, Audley didn't talk much, but only told Arthas what he had seen and heard.

Fortunately, he was so immersed in the grief of being betrayed by the Holy See that he didn't mention Edward's existence at all, otherwise...... The consequences are unimaginable.

Edward secretly sweated for himself. If Arthas knew his identity...... Hehe.

There is no place to die

In fact, things are far less terrible than he thinks. It wasn't until much later that he understood what Arthas was thinking.

For any normal human being, the demon race is an unattainable existence, and many human beings will never see a real demon in their lifetime, just from all kinds of legends, relying on the description of chasing wind and shadows, and outlining the possible appearance of the demon in their own minds.

Ugly, stupid, reckless, and murderous, although some demons are very similar in appearance to humans, however, most humans don't know anything about it.

To say that a guy with fine skin and tender flesh like Edward is a demon, eighty percent of listeners will think it's a bad joke.

Even if Audley did tell Arthas all about Edward, he would not have believed it, but would have thought that Audley's brain was broken.

It is precisely because of this subtle misunderstanding that for Arthas, the whereabouts of the Demon King have become an unsolvable mystery, and the two inexplicable holes cannot be filled, so there is a series of misguided stories...... Of course, that's all for later.

Dark, sleep, good night, this seems to be the most normal routine for every human, but the human sitting across from Edward doesn't think so.

Hoag House, Edward's House.

I didn't want to see this person, but I ...... There is no way, they live together, and it is difficult to think about it.

It was cold and snowy outside, and Edward wouldn't have run outside to sleep on the street just to avoid her.

"Where have you been?" asked Emilia as she sat on her bed, staring into Edward's eyes, expressionless.

Hearing her cold voice, Edward was inexplicably a little weak and didn't dare to look at her.

"Ahem...... Well, look into something. Edward replied with a pretended composure.

"Investigate what?"

"Something ......"

"What's the matter?"

"Ecological balance and vegetation cover in silver pine forests. Edward said with a straight face.

"You're lying!" Emilia instantly saw through his lie and pressed on.

"This ......"

"Say!"

"Uh......" Edward quickly looked away, smirking to hide his embarrassment, "That, I heard you won today?" hehe, that's amazing, that's ...... Keep going tomorrow, hehe. ”

"I'm not good. Emilia bluntly denied it.

"No, you're amazing. ”

β€œ...... Where the hell have you been?"

β€œ......”

"Speak quickly!"

"Okay, I'll say......" Edward shrugged, "we're going to find Audley." ”

"Audrey? Oh, I see. Emilia let out a faint sigh.

Hearing the words "Audrey", Emilia seemed to be satisfied.

"Eh, you, you believe me?"

Amilia's cold reaction made Edward a little uncomfortable. A second ago, he still had the attitude of breaking the casserole and asking the end, how did he suddenly become so disinterested?

"......," Emilia didn't answer.

"Why didn't you ask us what we were doing with him?"

"Don't want to ask. ”

"Why don't you want to ask?"

"I just don't want to ask!"

"Oh......"

"I'm sleepy, good night. ”

Without waiting for Edward to respond, Emilia fell headlong on the bed, shrunk into the covers, and fell asleep.

"Uh...... Good night. ”

Edward couldn't figure it out, so he could only sleep on his own.

However, he seemed to have forgotten to tell Emilia about something.

The next day.

Hogg House, the Wild Bear Tribe.

The knockout rounds have finally reached the final round. As long as the Exorcist Salvation Society wins this match, they will be eligible to represent Hogg House in the Knight Tryouts.

Success or failure, in this battle.

"So, you're still like that?" asked the referee in disbelief.

"Looks like so......" Flandall replied weakly.

"Is this your tactic, or is it a strategy?" the referee asked tentatively.

"Who would use such a stupid tactic......" George rolled his eyes and looked at the referee with a sneer.

"That's right, so, are you going to abstain?"

"Let's abstain......"

"No!" Emilia snapped veiled.

"George, you have to believe in Amilia, we can win the battle as well!" Flando was eager to try, clenching her little fists to cheer George on.

"Okay, Iβ€”I'll do my best to ......," George's face became more and more ugly as he said that.

He had foreseen his own tragedy.

After a day's rest, his body is fine, Emilia is right, he just fainted from exhaustion yesterday, and his mental strength has not been damaged.

But today...... Well, since Flandor has said so, what reason does he have to give up?

"Well, good luck to you. The referee was also a little helpless, he sighed, and led the three members of the Exorcism Salvation Society onto the stage.

Yes, three people.

"Damn, where did the two of them go?" George muttered quietly.

These two irresponsible guys, except for the first game to play soy sauce, have never helped much, and they often point fingers at them in peacetime, which is really hateful.

β€œ......”

Emilia didn't say anything, and stepped onto the playing field with her sword in hand.

Doesn't matter. No matter how strong the other party is, and no matter whether she has a partner behind her to help, she just needs to do what she has to do.

Emilia had been mentally prepared for a long time. However, when she saw that familiar face, her excitement could not be calmed down.

No one is good, but she can't tolerate herself being the enemy of that person.

"Emilya Sha, what are youβ€”what are you?" Emilia looked at the seemingly cute girl with wide eyes and surprise.

"Hmph, come to your senses, I won't let you be arrogant any longer!" the girl frowned, pointed at Amilia's nose and said loudly, "That's it!"

"Huh, isn't she the one who said she was going to join our club that day?" George touched his nose, thoughtful.

"She is the daughter of the former brave Vilvette, Emisa Xia. Flandor looked at the girl carefully and said with great certainty.

"Sasha ......"

"Hmph, do you know I'm afraid! The people representing Hogg House must be us!" the corners of her mouth were raised, and Emily Sha Xia was full of confidence.

Give up?

I don't know when it started, Amilia's hand holding the sword gradually let go.
