Chapter 81: Ellis's Faith
Lista, who went out, found Ellis, who was still writing and drawing in the diary: "I'm sorry, the head of the regiment told me not to look it up." ”
But Ellis didn't seem to hear it, and looked at the diary and said to himself, "What the hell am I seeing, that ...... It seems to be a demon, and it seems to be ...... It's not a demon. ”
Lista couldn't understand Ellis's words, so he walked around behind Ellis, only to see a skeleton in a robe drawn in his diary, which looked very terrifying.
Lista: "What is it?" ”
Only then did Ellis notice that Lista was already beside him: "Oh... Yes... It's something I saw on the walls of the Ayurun Atrium, and it's fine. By the way, Mistress Lista, what did you say the big key around the Goblin Commander's neck was for? ”
Lista: "The regiment commander said don't check ......"
Ellis: "Aunt Penella used to live in that place, and you don't think she'll know what that key was for?" ”
"Ellis......" Ellis turned and ran to the grocery store, but Lista didn't have time to dissuade him, so he could only follow him to the grocery store. At this time, there are only Penella who counts the goods and Lille who is in a daze in the grocery store. Because the crisis in the Glacier Valley was only resolved last month, Elle takes Claudia to make a new Ice Strawberry liqueur in the tavern.
Penela was also overjoyed to see the two, and just wanted to ask about Ayulun's situation, but Ellis preemptively opened her mouth and asked, "Aunt Penella, do you know what Ayuren has a big key for?" ”
"Keys? What kind of key are you talking about? ”
Ellis immediately took out his journal and flipped to one of the pages to show Penella. Surprised by Ellis's meticulousness and responsibility for his work, Ellis drew the key while he was just observing the goblins. Such a person will definitely be a good knight in the future.
Penella: "Oh...... You're talking about the key to the middle door of Ayulun. Ayulun's middle gate has a common farmland, and that key is the key that only the owner of the farmland has. ”
Penella: "I was forbidden to enter that place when I left the village before, but there are many entrances to the Ayurun Middle Gate, after all, Ayuren is quite large, but only one door can be opened with a key, and the other doors are opened from the inside. ”
Speaking of which, Ellis recalled that the middle door he had seen before was indeed clean, and there was no hole for a key to be inserted, and then asked Penella, "Do you know where the middle door can be opened with a key?" He then pulled out a map of Ayurun and gave it to Penella.
Penella said as she searched for the map, "Map, it's been a long time since I've seen Ayurin's map, and I'm really nostalgic." But where do you want to go? I suggest you still don't go, the last time I went, Ayurun had already been burned, and I walked all the way to the middle gate, and there was no one at the middle gate, and there was no demon as you said, but there were people from your knights in the middle gate. I also heard a terrible sound from inside the middle door, and now I am scared when I think about it, that sound ...... Well, here it is. ”
The diary in Ellis's hand fell to the ground, and the shock in his heart could not be eliminated for a while, and he looked at Penella with wide eyes: "You mean, the Kingdom Knights, who were there before?" ”
Penella: "I saw the Order's coat of arms." ”
Ellis: "Knights of the Kingdom... I actually knew, but the Knights also ordered a ban on entering Ayurun. And it was impossible for them not to hear such a loud scream. ”
Ellis's expression looked a little helpless, so it seemed that the fall of Ayurun was inseparable from the Knights, and he didn't admit that the place he had longed for since he was a child had now become the object of his suspicion.
Although Lista also aims to become a knight, he is not the same as Ellis. After becoming a knight, what Lista wanted to do was to save and change the status quo at the bottom of society, rather than taking the knights as his own faith as Ellis did.
Lista stroked Ellis's back and persuaded Ellis to think better. At some point, Lille went around behind Lista, threw himself on Lista's back, and said, "That's what you're talking about?" It's the magic explosion that happened the other day. ”
Ellis: "Magic explosion? Isn't it simple to burn? ”
Lille was put off his back by Lista: "Ho ho ho! Yes yes, oh! No, no, no, that, that, it was suddenly perceived in the middle of the night, and the magic explosion was not an ordinary explosion. It's an explosion of mana, like the archmages using the Destruction Magic Circle...... Or the kind of storm that occurs when an extremely powerful mage uses super magic. ”
Lille: "But that night was different. Yes, uh, it's like the door of the dimension is broken. ”
Lista and Ellis heard it in a fog, but generally understood that it seemed that it was time for the magician to intervene.
Ellis suddenly stood up and began to pack his things, and said to Lista, "I'm sorry Lord Lista, I will personally ask Captain Adan for instructions, please accompany me to Ayurun again." ”
"Ellis......" Lista was helpless, but now he couldn't stop Ellis, only to see Ellis shouting as he walked towards the mercenary group: "It's impossible for the Kingdom Knights to lie, so I must find the truth." ”
Aidan, who was in the mercenary group, saw Ellis, the trainee non-commissioned officer beside Deyun, rushing in in a hurry, and instantly understood the purpose of his coming. He motioned for Ellis to be quiet, and the two of them went back to the separate room.
"Tell me, boy, what's the matter?"
"Captain, Lord Deyun is a knight, so ......, but I believe that the knights will not deceive people, I must find out the truth."
"Non-commissioned officer, listen to the old man's advice, don't ...... the truth of the Knights"
"Please help me, Captain!"
Captain Edan thought about it in his heart, he really wanted to get a little more news about the Knights, if only the mercenary group went, it would be easy to be discovered by the Knights, but if it was a non-commissioned officer of this knight who asked for help...... Speaking to the outside world, our mercenary group supports the actions of the Knights in all aspects, and there is no hierarchical distinction between the people of the Knights, and secondly, after obtaining the information, the Knights are not easy to talk to us.
After deciding in his heart, Aidan shouted behind Ellis, "Okay, don't hide, cooperate with Non-commissioned Officer Ellis." ”
"Yes!" From behind the door came the voice of Lista.
"Thank you, Captain! But please keep it a secret from Lord Deku, I don't want him to worry! ”
"Hmm." Aidan smiled slightly, he had arranged for Lista to get more information, how could he let Deyun stop it.
