Verse 170. For whom she is crying
Mr. Schwaro and Dean Brehim appeared at Annan's side at the same time.
The soldiers, who did not yet know what was happening, were maintaining order, the grey-robed mage was arriving from afar, Elimoas landed in the square, and Annan saw Evelyn climb onto the roof of the tavern, holding the Philosopher's Stone to shoot the sky.
"Devil's Eye...... Mad Dog Grand Duke is coming? ”
"Nope."
Mr. Swarro looked at Claire, who fell to the ground: "She's a relative of the Mad Dog Grand Duke?" ”
Annan remembered what she said when they parted...... Go back and dissuade my brother.
"This is a sacrificial ceremony, and the Mad Dog Grand Duke wants to sacrifice the entire Liberty City." Dean Brahem said.
"The solution?"
"This is the power of the Demon Lord, and we can't do anything about it...... Only leave here before the ritual is completed. ”
Annan frowned: "Can I take the Floating City away?" ”
"When are you still bargaining!"
"Treasure reigns supreme!" Elimoas, who spoke in a low voice, expressed her support.
"I just don't want to run away anymore......"
Annan looked up at the Demon Eye in deep space, and the scarlet in the sky was getting deeper and deeper, as if it was about to drip blood......
"Hurry up and make a decision." Mr. Schwarro urged.
At this time, the demonic eye hanging in the deep space suddenly became vibrating and blurred, as if it was affected by a force.
The sacrificial rites of the Demon Maharaja were suppressed.
Annan looked at the three epics in surprise, "...... Not us. The Dean shook his head.
"Could it be that the golden dragon Rex hasn't left yet?"
Only Mr. Svarro glanced thoughtfully at the silly cat slumped on the windowsill.
The tremor of the demon's eye continued to intensify, eventually dissipating in a way that the three epics could not comprehend. The diffuse scarlet gradually returned to the sky's original color.
Evelyn trotted over with her skirt not at all ladylike: "I took a picture of the evidence!" This will be a weapon to shoot the mad dog archduke to death! ”
"It's over?"
Annan was still wondering when a transparent soul emerged from Claire's corpse.
"You stopped his evil plan......"
"Mad Dog Archduke is your brother?" Annan asked.
"I'm Claire Montabulllock...... Gilles's sister. ”
"You want to sacrifice Liberty City with him?" Ingrid asked hostilely.
They were on the verge of abandoning their homes again.
Claire didn't explain, just whispered sadly: "Kill him...... He's not my brother anymore. ”
"I will......" Annan looked at her.
Claire's soul said nothing more, and gradually dissipated.
Annan put away his inexplicable sentimentality, took a deep breath and said: "The Mad Dog Grand Duke has exhausted the last resort, and he has nothing!" Now, attack the Overwatch! ”
Annan couldn't wait a minute or a second. He rode on Elimoas's dragon back and opened the portal after looking out at the castle that belonged to Lord Lorain.
Knights, mages, musketeers, and professions who were on the verge of being sacrificed.
The fragile resistance on the periphery of the castle disappeared in an instant, and Annan entered the castle surrounded by everyone.
There was not a single light in the dark hall, and dust drifted in front of the window.
Annan saw the young man slumped in front of the king's chair.
The glory and power that the Mad Dog Grand Duke once possessed was now in vain, and now he was like a ghost forgotten by the world, and all catharsis could only reverberate in the halls of the castle.
"Why! Why can't even the Demon Lord kill you! Even his roar was like a defeated dog.
"Because I won't use my own relatives as bait."
"Your answer doesn't fit the logic of the question." Alice corrected.
"Anyway, you know I mean he's a complete scumbag." Annan said nonchalantly.
The Mad Dog Grand Duke struggled to his feet and pounced on Annan like a maniac with a cloak of hair.
Bell –
His dagger is blocked by Dela, who stops her when she holds the dagger and prepares to stab it in the heart of the Mad Dog Grand Duke.
Annan looked at the mad dog archduke condescendingly and said, "It's not time yet. ”
He killed so many people, left civilians homeless, and killed his own sister...... It's too cheap for him to die like this.
When the Mad Dog Archduke was shackled and led out of the castle, Evelyn ran over and filmed the scene.
It seems that "Voices of Freedom" no longer needs to record the war in real time, and in the second issue, they will be able to put this image and the title: The War is Over.
The journey back to Liberty City had gone smoothly, and it seemed that the Demon Maharaja had given up his useless spokesman.
The Mad Dog Grand Duke was locked in the deepest part of the dungeon. In order to prevent him from escaping, Annan also entrusted the dean to arrange a master-level warning spell for him.
"Are you going to see him?"
"There's no need for it...... His story is over. The gray-robed mage said.
Annan continued to ask him: "Mr. Dahl, is this the end you foresee?" ”
"Perhaps......"
Annan went to Lord Loran again, and he said the same thing as the gray-robed mage: "I don't want to see him again......"
None of them wanted to see the rebellious mad dog Grand Duke again.
……
Da Da Da –
Gentle footsteps appear in the depths of the dungeon.
Gilles, shackled in front of the cold wall, looked up.
"Dahl...... You betrayed me. ”
"I didn't. I have always been loyal to this country......"
"Fuck off, I don't want to see you again."
"If that's your last wish as a loser."
Dahl Frank departed from Gilles, trembling with rage, and dissipated around the corner he couldn't see.
Annan and Tina, who were next to them, covered their mouths and snickered.
"And then there's Lorain......," Annan and Tina said.
Da Da Da –
Heavy footsteps stopped in front of the cell.
"You're here to laugh at me, too?"
“…… I just wanted to say, you're wrong. You will lead the country to ruin. Giraldi is the hope of the principality! ”
"That bastard......" Gilles wanted to say something, but Lord Lorain ignored his confession and turned away.
"Claire next?" Tina asked eagerly.
Annan restrained his smile: "No...... I went out on my own. ”
Gilles looked up at the sound of footsteps again, and saw the man he hated standing outside the cell.
"You win, devil ......"
Annan looked left and right: "Are you talking to me?" ”
"You're a devil!" Gilles roared like a mad dog.
Like a devil who plays with people's hearts, Annan follows behind the Mad Dog Grand Duke and does only one thing: punctures his every plan, and then forces him to look at him with the deepest, solemn gaze, and tells him: "Look, you have screwed it all up." ”
"It's not me who messes you up, it's you."
Annan looked at Gilles with pity: "You know, Claire said when she said goodbye to me that in the future she would bring her brother to Liberty City with her. ”
"But she has no future."
Annan suddenly had no desire to say more, ignored the stunned Gilles, and left the dungeon.
Behind him, the dungeon echoed with a beastly scream.
