Chapter 55: God's Punishment, the Rain of the Sky
"Your Majesty, it seems that you are very satisfied with your new king, Arman. β
Isabella's face was very ugly. She struggled with her brains, but she felt powerless than ever in the current situation.
"At least he won't give an unfair verdict to his own adherents. β
Duke Arman replied lightly.
"Oh, so it seems to you that the punishment of the defeated army is unjust?"
Isabella's eyes narrowed. Now that the use of force is a mortal situation, she tries to shift the battlefield to the negotiating table.
"Whatever you may say, this is your grave anyway. β
However, the Duke of Arman shook his head, and had no intention of engaging in such a verbal battle.
"Please stop being obsessed, Lord Arman, betrayal will only defile your sword and make the Britt family ......"
"Shut up - !!"
Leona rushed out, pleading in a mournful tone to the Duke. However, the girl's appeal was ruthlessly interrupted, and the Duke looked at her with cold eyes and said:
"You used to be my most trusted subordinate, Angelica. But now, to me, you are only a traitor, an enemy of mine!"
"Woo......"
The most respected benefactor faced her with a sword, which made Leona's heart ache.
"Enough......
I'll go back with you, Arman, whether I'm greeted after that by beheading or hanging. Please spare these children. β
Even the king stood up and spoke righteously.
"I can't accept your offer, Cliff. However, to pay tribute to your courage. I'm happy to give you a choice - stay with Leah Farainn and leave. Or all die here. β
He gave an ultimatum. It was also Germain's order.
It's a sinister multiple-choice question, intellectually speaking. No one would choose the latter. However, once the former is chosen, then abandonment will also be an indisputable fact.
Germain thinks that if the princess can take the initiative to abandon Leah, maybe there will be a chance to draw little Lori to his side.
"I refuse to hand over Leah!"
However, Isabella decisively rejected the offer.
"Think clearly, princess. β
The Duke frowned, he didn't expect the other party to make such an irrational judgment anyway.
"I'm well aware, Arman. You don't want to take Leah from here, unless I'm dead. β
That's right, the princess is irrational now. When the other party makes such a request. She refused without even thinking about it.
"Wake up, my daughter, you shouldn't make that judgment. β
However, not everyone kept this mind, and the king stood up, unable to watch his daughter behave so irrationally.
Everyone present could see that choosing the former would only lose Leah, and choosing the latter would lose everything including Leah.
"In the name of the King, I declare to you, Duke of Arman, that I am willing to accept your advice and hand over Leah Farain. β
When the king said this. Everyone reacted differently, and the queen shook her head and sighed mournfully. Rebecca gripped the spear in her hand, and Carl prayed silently. Rowan looked around. Jessica frowned, and the two struggled to find and think about impossible ways to fight back. Rebecca and Alec tightly protected Lori, vigilant to everyone around them. Leona, on the other hand, fell to her knees with her eyes distracted. She couldn't have imagined that the former Duke would throw such a vicious problem.
As for Leah. Although it is a last resort to understand the other party's approach, but in the face of this naked betrayal. She still felt a pain in her heart.
"Shut up, I don't recognize you as a king, Cliff, your name is worthless in my eyes. I'm asking now about Isabella, your decision. β
Arman shook his head, he humiliated Cliff nakedly.
"I ......"
Isabella hesitated. If it was just her and Leah here, the princess thought she would not hesitate to choose to live and die with little Lori. However, there are many other people around her, including her own parents.
[What should I do?]
For a moment, she felt at a loss.
At that moment, a warm hand took hold of her.
"Leah?"
The princess looked back and saw a smiling little Lori.
"It's okay, Isa, trust me. β
Leah smiled softly.
She didn't reproach anyone in the team, because it was a vicious question and there was no right answer.
"Mr. Britt, and Your Majesty, it seems that I never allowed the two of you to trade me as a bargaining chip on the table. β
In order not to embarrass the princess even more, she stepped forward and stood in front of the Iron Wing army.
"But you don't have a choice, miss. β
The Duke shook his head.
"What arrogant words.
Listen -- Arman Britt. I also give you a choice - lay down your arms and accept the judgment of the princess, or continue to be obsessed and meet my wrath. β
Little Lori's voice is full of coldness and ruthlessness.
For a moment, there was silence in the canyon, as if a needle could be heard.
Duke Arman shook his head in disbelief. The scene in front of him seemed to him as comical as a mouse threatening to bite a cat to death.
"You're insulting me, Miss Leah. β
"I'm graciously giving you a chance, Mr. Arman. β
"As I said, the choice is not yours, miss. β
"So I'll leave it up to you, sir. β
The two of them are-for-tat, and every word makes the taste of gunpowder stronger.
"Enough, don't provoke me any more, miss. β
Duke Arman raised his sword.
"Your logic is really weird, no one is going to try to provoke the garbage bags on the side of the street. β
In the face of the threat, Little Lori was nakedly sarcastic and sarcastic.
"Ah, yes, yes? Do you want to bargain with me before you die?"
All of them can see it. The Duke's anger had reached its peak.
However, Leah was not satisfied, and she smiled. Elegantly lifted the skirt and saluted:
"No, don't get me wrong. I'm not targeting you, Mr. Arman. I mean, all of you of the Iron Wing Knights - are rubbish. β
An understatement, but it instantly angered everyone on the enemy side.
"I'm sorry, it seems that this is your choice, and you will kill everyone for it. β
The Duke shook his head.
"I'm sorry too, it seems that this is your choice, but don't worry, I won't take away the title and artifact that you hold in your hands at the cost of falling so closely, but in return - I'm going to take the rest with me. β
Leah shook her head as well.
"Attack-!!"
The Duke swung his sword. Command the torrent of steel to charge, no one can insult the Iron Wing Knights, they must pay with their lives.
"Spread your wingsβNilfi!!
Let Time FlowβEledont !!"
But even more terrifying than that is the other side. With Leah as the center, a huge burst of energy erupted, and the giant wings fanned the blue wind, brutally and mercilessly knocking down the steel journey, the knights were blown off the horses, and the huge ballista was torn to pieces, and even the Duke of Arman, who held the Catalvard, was as powerless as a child. He was shot down and dismounted, and fell to the ground.
"You...... ...... the hell you"
Looking up, Arman saw a wave of blue wings, hanging the Wheel of Time. Leah, who floats quietly in the sky like a goddess.
"Accept judgment. β
The girl made an awe-inspiring announcement, clasped her hands to her chest, and began to sing loudly.
"Chant!?"
Moment. Duke Arman's mind conjured up the powerlessness of the Iron Wing Castle in the face of the azure barrier.
"No...... Wrong. That's not the song Leah usually sings!"
However, Isabella, who was more familiar with Leah's singing than the duke, understood. It was not a blue salute, but a colder song that proclaimed merciless judgment.
It is the wrath of the goddess, and at this moment, the world will bring divine punishment on sinners.
Dark clouds began to gather in the dawn sky, and then a distant bell rang out of nowhere, like a signal, representing the final raindrops falling to the ground.
"Hey, the blue ...... Rain?"
A soldier of the Iron Wing Knights stretched out his hand and noticed that raindrops were falling from the sky and turned blue.
Click!
"Uhh!!hh
First there was a sound like glass breaking, and then the palm of the hand that touched the raindrops began to twist, and the broken fingers and blood splattered wantonly, causing him to let out a scream.
That's -- the rain of the sky:
The ancient Song of Divine Punishment rains down on everything it touches and washes away all the unclean on the earth.
For a moment, the world fell silent.
[What happened?]
Duke Arman stood in the blue rainstorm, his brain completely frozen, unable to comprehend what was in front of him.
[It's broken, it's all broken.] γ
The rain-drenched soldiers were like fragile glass artifacts, shattering wantonly, making a clattering sound, and then turning into puddles of meat on the ground.
[Blood, blood everywhere.] γ
As far as the eye could see, blood soaked the earth, and now he was the only one left in the Knights, who had been invincible before, standing in the blood-stained heaven and earth.
The maiden had indeed taken everything as announced, leaving him alone with the Katravard in his hand, watching the once-glorious Order of Knights in the rainstorm as it turned to dust.
"I won't kill you because of Leona's expectations, now- let's leave. β
Leah descended from the sky, walked in front of Duke Arman, and said coldly.
The Duke did not reply, but like a puppet, he dragged the Dawn Blade upside down, allowing it to make long marks between the muddy water, and insensitive faded away, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight. (To be continued......)
