The knights of the Church left the castle of Scarlet and galloped away in the direction of the town.

On the way, the attendant couldn't help but ask the knight, "My lord, don't you plan not to hold Scarlet responsible?" ”

"Our credo is consequentialism," came a dull response from under the heavy iron helmet, "There are no demons in Scarlett Castle, and unlike what we originally thought, they are still part of the human camp, so it has nothing to do with our goal this time." ”

The knight's words silenced the servant, but the other knight continued, "Gail, do you believe the butler's words?" ”

“...... The minutiae may be hidden, but it doesn't hurt. The head of the Church Knight Gale replied in a deep voice.

He remembered what the boy had said not long ago, after he had gotten the magic book—

"One day, a man came to Scarlet's castle with this book, claiming to be the messenger of the witch, and he showed us the power of the book, which the Earl believed could lead Scarlet to the top, but unexpectedly attracted demons."

The boy's words were full of loopholes, but Gail didn't think about the dirty aristocratic deals for the time being, he only grasped the connection between the witch and the demon.

Even if Scarlet really hid something, the witch's messenger and the magic book were in their hands, and as long as the unconscious man woke up, or if they unlocked the ban on the book, everything would be revealed.

It's just that there is no evidence of direct collusion between Scarlet and the demons, and they can't attack a nobleman for no reason.

The top priority is to destroy that witch first, to be able to have the means to summon such a powerful demon, this kind of existence will definitely not allow her to live.

Gail froze his mind and waved the horsewhip in his hand to speed up his journey: "Hurry up, everyone, don't let the witch escape." ”

"Yes!"

......

......

Through the window of the study, the maid looked at the distant knight procession and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Dragaga, is this really okay?" Gloria, who had changed into a maid dress again, asked worriedly, the eldest lady just now was pretending to be her.

The teenager managed to fool the church's censorship by taking advantage of the man in the basement and the magic book, and finally adding her as a real human being.

In Gloria's eyes, it was nothing more than a dangerous show, but the teenager did more than that.

The knights of the church must have the ability to detect lies, so the boy only told the "truth", but with a slight adjustment in chronological order.

In addition, he deliberately added complicated prohibitions to the magic book that originally had a simple hypnotic effect, in order to confuse the knight's gaze.

But the most important thing is that he quietly hypnotized the knight Gale in a brief encounter.

"It's really good luck to be in Europa this time, even if it is a powerful knight, the gap in cognition cannot be bridged, and it is impossible for him to be prepared for the Extreme Eastern Hexelism that he has never seen before."

In Gloria's astonished eyes, in the young man's empty right hand, an eyeball wrapped in a thin thread was quietly suspended on it, looming, like a dream bubble, and disappeared after a while.

"The first time I used Miss Jue's power, it was really too reluctant, and I am afraid that the effect can only last for about a day." The boy muttered to himself, his gaze falling on the dusty dust left by the horses' hooves outside the castle, and he looked a little heavy.

"Gloria." The boy shouted the maid's name.

"What do you command, Mr. Dragaga?" The maid obediently stepped forward.

After taking a deep breath, the boy turned around and left the maid with a back: "Go pack up, bring the necessary luggage, it's time for us to leave." ”

"I see." After Gloria answered, the boy had just left the study, and Remilia walked out of the cubicle: "Miss." ”

The most dangerous place is the safest place, and the place where the teenager has Remilia and Flandrew hiding is in the cubicle of the study.

Using the spellbook and pretending to be the eldest lady, Gloria diverts the knight Gail's attention and successfully hides the existence of the compartment.

Thanks to the fact that the chamber is purely physical, and there is no trace of magic, it is avoided from detection.

Remilia had apparently heard the conversation between the two, so she asked Gloria directly, "When are you leaving?" ”

"Mr. Draga was preparing a few days ago, and he can leave tonight at the earliest."

"Got it, go get busy."

When Gloria retreated, Remilia looked out the window, and all that could be seen was the traces of horses' hooves, densely arranged around the castle like a nightmare, haunting her.

"It's an eyesore......"

Remilia's weak anger made her feel irritated from the bottom of her heart, and she was cursed by the light world to not even step into the sun-drenched area.

The desire to be strong had already been planted in her heart, but at this moment, after being watered by the weakness of self-loathing, it grew irrepressibly crazy.

Apparently unsummoned, Gangnir suddenly shone brightly in Remilia's hands, and the surging demonic power seemed to respond to her heart's desire, pulsating on the tip of the spear.

The roaring spiritual storm shattered the study, shattering all the glass of the windows, and red streamers unleashed out, erasing all the unsightly horseshoe marks around the castle.

Although this was not Remilia's subjective will, it was the embodiment of her inner thoughts, unaware that she had done all this, until she heard her sister's cry and suddenly woke up from that trance.

Gungnir's light slowly faded and disappeared, and the boy appeared in front of him, and Remilia was slightly startled, and slowly reached out and grabbed the corner of the boy's clothes, as if it was the night they first met.

The boy didn't question what Remilia had done, but responded to her expectations with the same reliability as ever: "Let's go, Gloria has ready lunch." ”

The boy's voice seemed to have magical power, and the irritability in Remilia's heart was strangely suppressed in an instant.

It's not that the desire for strength is dispelled, but as long as he is by her side, no matter what kind of enemy she is, there is no way to hurt her.

"Ernie sauce, you're strong, aren't you?" Remilia asked in a slightly stiff tone, tugging at the corner of the boy's clothes.

"Ah, I guess it's pretty strong." The boy didn't give a very numerical answer to this question, but although the answer was ambiguous, the relaxed tone was reassuring.

However, Remilia did not seem satisfied with this answer, so she asked, "Is it stronger than all enemies?" ”

"I still have that confidence." The boy responded with a smile.

"Then, will you protect me, as you do now, all the time."

"That's what I do, isn't it? I'll protect you, it's something that has been decided since the time our fates were connected, well, if you're still uneasy, then let's pull the hook. ”

"Pull Hook?"

"yes, it's like that."

The two little fingers, one large and one small, hooked together, and the boy crouched down to meet Remilia's eyes, although she did not understand the meaning of this action, but she unexpectedly felt a special sense of relief.

Then, she smiled.
