Chapter 2 Louis XVI Happy Terrace
The assassination of the lord on his first day in office shows that the opposition within the realm is very strong and the attitude is extreme.
Vincent sighed secretly in his heart, is it because he is a demon?
The life of the demon clan is also the life!
After the Great War, many territories on the continent have been occupied by the demons for thirty years.
Over the years, the way the demons rule has gradually converged with the mainland country, but the voices against the rule of the demons have not disappeared among the people.
This time, he was appointed as the lord by the demon king's father, and the prince had already been warned to be wary of dangerous elements in the territory.
The sixth prince, who was originally mild-mannered, heeded the admonition, consulted a lot of literature, and finally chose the Huairou policy.
Before coming to the territory, he also graciously announced that the peasants of the territory would be exempted from twenty percent of the tax.
Many of the demons are undead, energy saving and emission reduction, and food can be consumed a little less, which is equivalent to a gift to the people.
But this group of damned Terrans actually took revenge on this part.
The blood of irritability and impulse began to surge, and Vincent had a desire to kill all the rebels.
While he was still rational, he hurriedly recited a calming spell to dissipate his anger.
It's easy to kill all the people, who will create wealth and defend the territory in the future, can only rely on those big and small demons and brainless skeletons?
Maybe there are people who wish they were so stupid......
Vincent quickly calmed down, he was glad that this counterattack had left a living hole, otherwise he wouldn't have known who was behind the conspiracy.
Be sure to find out who is behind the scenes, eliminate hidden dangers, and then start a happy life of playthings.
Paying close attention to the captured female assassin, Vincent felt an indescribable strangeness.
Blonde and blue-eyed, pretty-looking, well-proportioned and bony body is constantly shaking.
A pair of big blue eyes were full of shame and stubbornness, and she was obviously trying to calm down.
Her teeth chattered, but Sakura's lips were closed, not like she would confess easily.
This kind of beautiful and conceited little girl is the type that can arouse people's desire to challenge.
Everyone present just made him feel strange, only she was special.
As for what is special, I can't say specifically.
But one thing he was sure of was that he wasn't going to let her go.
From now on, in front of the demon subordinates and the people of different races, you must show the momentum of the demon ruthless, so that everyone does not dare to offend themselves easily.
At the same time, do the devil and leave a line, and want to see each other.
"Didn't expect that, did you? You despicable assassin. Vincent spoke in a tough tone that he rarely used, "The Master of Skill is immortal, and no evil magic will work on me. ”
The bloodline of the demon royal family is already very powerful, and this sentence is not a bluff.
The girl saw the demon lord squinting at her, the indescribable evil in his eyes, and the corners of her mouth were still slightly upturned.
It's not like looking at people, it's like looking at toys that are about to be broken.
"Master, I'll torture you." Scythe volunteered to suggest, "This female is weak. ”
Vincent waved his hand, signaling him to be uneasy, and the Scythe Demon immediately stood obediently to the side.
"Investigate the dead bodies and see where they came from." Vincent said unhurriedly, "Ruling cannot be separated from the law, and we must rule the country according to law." ”
"Rule of law?" The lich leader turned his skeletal neck and asked suspiciously, "What is this law of contract?" ”
For the members of the demon clan who are naturally accustomed to obeying power, the law is just the will of the strong, and they don't think there is any public order and good customs.
The lich leader who accompanied the prince this time claimed to be a famous scholar among the demons, but he still didn't understand the concept that the prince said.
"The law is an extension of His Majesty's will, and everyone must obey it, and no one can disobey it." Vincent quickly took out the big hat of the demon king and explained casually, "According to the law, to assassinate the lord, you must be hanged in public." ”
"A dead body cannot be hanged." The lich leader made a suggestion, "Turn them into zombies and hang them first." ”
Can you still be hanged if you become a zombie? Vincent complained in his heart and shook his head helplessly.
"You can also feed the werewolves." The lich leader has a lot of ideas, "It's easy to get started." ”
The teenage assassin's body shuddered.
"Werewolves have been eating too much lately, fatter than a three-headed dog, and have to lose fat." Vincent was babbling gibberish as he peeked at the female assassin, "I've said it all, rule the country according to law." ”
"The Assassin was so guilty that even if he was dead, he would continue to be hanged, and his body would be hung at the gates of the city until his neck rotted and fell off."
"It's not scary." The giant scythe also interjected, "The skeleton is happy to see it." ”
Vincent thought to himself, isn't the scene of the skeleton laughing horribly?
"Law is law, and it cannot be ruled by curse." Vincent no longer discussed the matter of the dead body, but turned his face to the teenage assassin, "This assassin is a coercive observant, and according to the law, he is hanged. ”
"You blaspheme the dead, what a devil!"
The girl could still force her composure and scolded weakly.
"I'm afraid people won't know I'm a demon." Vincent smiled wickedly at her, "Miss, are you a witcher?" ”
"So what?" The female assassin looked at the handsome face that could not contain much anger, and said weakly, "The warriors of the god of liberty will kill you all and take your homeland!" ”
"Master, are you going to hang it now?" Scythe asked hoarsely, "It's easy, and it's boring." ”
Vincent's eyes rolled and he had a new idea.
To govern the country according to law, it is also necessary to work hard.
"The master has changed his mind......"
Except for the female assassin, who secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the other wise servants all looked at the lord in bewilderment.
"We need to pay attention to the environmental hygiene of the territory. The hanged man has an ugly face and excretes filth, which disgusts me. ”
"Such a beautiful head, I want her to fall off without pain and put it away."
"By the way, in order to beautify the city, let's make a skull monument in the middle of the street, and write her charges below, so that people will know the fate of resisting me."
"Demons! The god of liberty will curse you! The female assassin's face turned pale with fright, and she struggled with all her strength and scolded, "Murderer! Coward! Don't you even have the courage to kill me? ”
"I have ......"
The giant scythe lifted the handle of the scythe slightly, and the girl's neck was cold, and she immediately closed her mouth.
"Master, how can you behead without pain?" The giant scythe asked, a little embarrassed, "The people I have beheaded are in great pain. ”
This factual description scared the female assassin to the point of incontinence.
In any case, she didn't expect that these demons were so cruel, and they only thought about killing themselves without interrogation.
The female assassin had completely regretted that she had come to assassinate the demon with others in a hot head.
This is not a surefire action at all, but a fatal death.
"You have to pay attention to the spirit of craftsmanship in everything you do, don't forget, I have the protection of the craftsman god." Vincent said triumphantly, "Don't be in a hurry to die, stupid woman, I'll design you a new toy right now." ”
"The new toy is guaranteed to make your beautiful head hit the ground in an instant, and the pain will disappear in the blink of an eye like a breeze."
"Demons!" The female assassin's voice became weak and boring, "I'm dead, you...... Your judgment is coming soon! ”
"No one in the territory wants to judge me, only I judge others." Vincent replied nonchalantly, "I'm a cultured royal family, for the sake of you just being coerced, I'll give you some technical work before execution." ”
Under the curious gaze of everyone, Vincent asked people to find all kinds of materials, and without much effort, he used the craftsman's hand to rub a strange-looking little thing.
As Vinson focused on the production, instead of feeling tired, he became distracted.
All kinds of intricate problems were peeled away, and slowly settled his mind.
This feeling of undistracted concentration is so beautiful that it can be so fascinating that you can forget your sorrows.
"This toy is called 'Louis XVI Happy Table'. Remember, you must learn to execute in a way that people can understand, so that you can educate the foolish. ”
Vincent held the bladed machine in his hand and placed it in front of the female assassin.
"Alas, such a stupid woman probably can't remember, you might as well call it 'guillotine'."
Compared to the axes or swords commonly used for executions in this era, this machine is simply a blessing for the executioner.
"Look, just like that, 'click', 'click', 'click'...... It's great that my head fell in the basket and I didn't have time to close my eyes, and I could still look at me at the end, wasn't it? ”
"Great!" The flame in the giant scythe's eyes doubled, "Master, I'm here to execute." ”
Although the name of the toy is difficult to remember, the blade on the small model uses the falling energy to accelerate and cut several branches in succession.
The female assassin had burst into tears, and the lord's retainers admired her master's ingenuity.
Although this thing is of little use to the demons, it can intimidate humans and make them happy.
"Gravity, very practical." The lich leader exclaimed, "It's worth documenting and publishing a monograph." ”
Fear is one of the sources of magic for high-level demons, and being scary is equivalent to eating a snack.
The technical level of the guillotine is a little worse, but at least it is a classic product.
"It's as simple as this, and the nearby residents are notified to come to the scene to see the popular legal education."
"Lord of Mercy, why enforce the law strictly; The girl in the flower season, why is her head in a different place; Racial reconciliation, why are there so many ups and downs, is it the distortion of human nature or the degradation of morality behind all this......"
The demon lord's frightened look with joy was really evil and terrifying.
A group of slow-moving skeletons began to get busy.
The monsters began to rummage around the blacksmith shops at the docks.
The talking lichs began to relay summoning orders to the petty officials on the docks.
It's going to be real!
The female assassin, whose face was as pale as paper, gritted her teeth for a long time, and finally stopped cursing, but opened her mouth to try to communicate.
"Wait...... Wait a minute, lord...... My lord, I have something to say......"
