In addition to his cordiality, Eoham retains the majesty of a ruler. And he really cares about Curt's safety, so he makes a very strong decision to force Curt to accept the protection of the four sacrificial swords. From the caster's point of view, Curt could tell that the Sword of Sacrifice was definitely one of the strongest magical creations. In front of them, I'm afraid even Gordon won't be able to make a few moves.

What surprised Curt the most was that the Swords of Sacrifice seemed to possess some intelligence. They are able to make eye contact and follow simple commands. As Curt walked out of the main tower, four sacrificial swords lined up in a phalanx, following him in unison. Their gaze looked in different directions, relentlessly searching for potential threats.

When Curt arrived in the Inquisition Hall, the mages near the gate avoided him. The gaze sent by the sacrificial sword was cold and merciless, giving a strong sense of threat. Curt walked briskly, pondering how much hidden power the Sword of Sacrifice still had. - When ascending to the high platform where the Hall of Inquisition was located, the sacrificial swords actually blessed themselves with levitation. Suddenly, Curt failed to figure out whether the sacrificial swords were casting spells on their own or if they had activated a magic item.

Half a minute later, Curt found Inquisitor Olga who was deliberating on the matter, and Inquisitor Gran. Both Olga and Gran were a little surprised by Curt's sudden arrival.

Curt waved his hand, signaling the sacrificial swords to stay outside the door. Then he walked over to Olga's desk and bowed deeply.

“...... What's wrong?"

Olga looked at Curt, whose forehead was about to touch the table, and asked calmly. At the same time, he nodded slightly unconsciously, and it seemed that he was not completely incomprehensible to Curt's approach. Gran on the side scratched at the back of his head. Looks a little nervous. Curt slowly straightened up. Said with a guilty face:

"The people of Olga. You should know about me, right? I'm sorry I cheated on you. ”

"Hmm......"

Olga raised her hand and stroked her beard, narrowing her eyes. As one of the core high-ranking officials of Thousand Law City, he has certainly figured out Curt's identity. So Olga also understands that in the past few months, he has been deceived badly enough by Curt who wants to subvert Thousand Laws City. His appreciation of Curt is tantamount to a slap in the face, and as the defender of the legal system in the City of Thousand Laws, Olga failed to reveal Curt's identity. To be so close to Curt is in itself a dereliction of duty.

Although things didn't end up getting big under pressure from Ioham, those in the know wouldn't be without. So Olga has been a bit of a wolf in recent days, and the prestige he has accumulated over the decades is being questioned.

"Sit. ”

After a short period of thought, Olga decided to listen to what Curt had to say. He stretched out his hand toward an empty chair, but Curt didn't sit down. Curt honestly stood in place, bowed his head and said:

"I sincerely apologize to you, Olga, Mr. Gran. I'm sure you already know. I am the son of Lord Eorham, but I am deceived by my enemies. Come and carry out a conspiracy against the Thousand Law City. I can't defend this, and I don't dare ask for your forgiveness. Especially the people of Olga, I have abused your kindness and lived up to your expectations. ”

"Seriously, I almost got by you......"

Olga muttered with a frown, then nodded, motioning for Gran to bring the teapot and cup. Under Curt's gaze, Olga poured three cups of tea with an unhappy face. He gave the tea to everyone, and then said with a straight face:

"Anyway, you're the son of Ioham, and that's enough to settle all the troubles. Dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of mice make holes...... Anyway, I'm not the only one who was played miserably by you, everyone pretended to be deaf and dumb, and they got by. Curt, I'm glad you made the trip to say that. But now you don't need to be forgiven, you know what I mean?"

"Yes, I'm clear. Next, I will contribute to the Thousand Law City and make up for my mistakes with practical actions. In addition, I would appreciate your permission for me to temporarily resign from the post of Secretary General. ”

Curt's tone was very sincere, which moved Gran on the side. Olga stared at Curt for a moment, and then said sternly:

"Looks like you're well aware of the situation, Curt. Then I will deprive you of the position of secretary, and not resign yourself. That position will be vacant for a while, but not for long. Do a good job and get what needs to be done. After that, the Thousand Laws City will truly accept you, you know what I'm talking about, right?"

"Yes, thank you for your leniency. ”

Curt nodded respectfully, he knew that in Olga's position, there were some things that had to be done. If Olga doesn't punish Curt in any way, but just covers his ears and steals the bell when he doesn't do anything, then he will leave a handle, which will be bad for both Curt and Olga.

On the contrary, if Olga had expelled Curt from the team of the inquisitors, he would have been able to consolidate his selfless image and save face to the greatest extent. And from Curt's position, he now naturally has the obligation to get rid of the Grand Druid McDonough. Once Curt did, it was a huge achievement. When the time comes, Olga will reinstate Officer Curt, and there will be no one to say anything nonsense.

"I'm still saying the same thing, you're a promising young man. Do it well, and I won't be able to give you this chair in the future. Of course, you are the only son of Ioham. For you...... Hehe, this chair of mine may be a little too small. ”

After dealing with Curt, Olga was relieved. He picked up his teacup, and even had a smile on his face. After Curt responded a few words politely, Olga looked him up and down, and said with some doubts:

"By the way, what are you doing dressed like this? Isn't the matter of the Sword Nation over yet? I heard that you have won a great victory. ”

"There are still some hand tails to deal with, and if you look at it from the perspective of the 'whole thing', one qiē is just beginning. I plan to give up my role as a mage for the time being and contribute as much as I can. ”

Curt replied in a way that Olga could understand, and his hint was clear enough. So Olga nodded slowly, with a thoughtful expression. Curt took the opportunity to retire and left the trial hall accompanied by Gran.

A few minutes later, Curt stopped at the edge of the raised platform outside the trial hall. Through the scattered snowflakes, he looked out at the main tower in the distance. Gran on the side shrunk his neck, as if feeling a little cold. He looked around at the four sacrificial swords that were scattered and stood to form a defensive circle, and said with emotion:

"It's a little different from what I thought I would, but you've made it to the top, Curt. The people of Olga are indeed very stubborn, even a little unkind. But he cares about you, you must understand that. ”

"I've always felt that in the City of a Thousand Laws, the only people who can be called friends are you and the people of Orga...... It may be a bit disrespectful to him to say that. In short, I trusted you and never thought of sacrificing you to do anything. ”

At this point, Curt paused. He turned his head, looked at the rather moved Gran and said:

"Well, you know what I'm doing. Whether I want to or not, as long as I stay in Qianfa City, I have to keep climbing up. I am the son of Ioham, and I have no other choice. ”

"You mean ......"

"I need someone I can trust, Gran, do you want to come with me?"

Curt turned and looked at the startled Gran. Gran opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but hesitated. In his opinion, Curt's invitation was a reasonable thing. But it's not very attractive to ask Gran to give up his comfortable life and get involved in unpredictable chaos.

"Stupid--law-teacher-!"

Just as Gran was hesitating whether to refuse, someone suddenly shouted in a long voice and leaned over from a distance. Curt looked up suddenly, and saw a slender figure holding twin swords, rushing down from the roof of the trial hall.

Although the exterior wall of the trial hall is only slightly sloping, it should be too steep for people to stand. But the visitor was leaning down, slanting across the wall as if he were walking on the ground. Her degree is incredibly fast, it is Adios's childhood sweetheart, Lola has arrived.

Curt pushed away Gran, who was about to cast the spell, and drew his sword calmly. He knew the relationship between Lola and Ioham, but he didn't worry about any malice on the other side. Curt still understands Lola's freewheeling and unreasonable personality. He was mentally prepared to suffer a small loss, and at this time, the four sacrificial swords acted at the same time.

Within half a second, the two sacrificial swords moved their feet and stopped in front of Curt, forming an impregnable defensive formation. The other two sacrificial swords drew their weapons at the same time, raising their long and wide enchanted two-handed swords and striding forward. From behind the two sacrificial swords, Curt saw Lola sneering from afar. She rushed over with a look of contempt.

The two sacrificial swords in front of them were unmoved, and they stood still. This surprised Lola a little, but she still pressed towards Curt relentlessly.

The moment the weapon was enough to reach Lola, the two sacrificial swords slashed down the two-handed swords. Their degree, strength, and accuracy surpassed that of high-ranking warriors, and the sound of the blade slicing through the air was like tearing paper. Lola's response was to add it again, like a phantom, burrowing under the blade of the sword. She swung a backhand sword and slashed at the left arm of a sacrificial sword. Sparks erupted as the sacrificial sword flipped its palm abruptly, gripping the blade that it didn't have time to withdraw.

"You!"

For a moment, Lola's face turned pale. Another sacrificial sword lunged at him, slamming Lola with his shoulder, wrapped in heavy armor. Lola flew out like a puppet, her tiny body spinning rapidly in the air. While she was in her own hands, the two sacrificial swords protecting Curt raised their two-handed swords and made a motion to throw them over. (To be continued......)
