Section 41: Ignorance

"Ashrufat," Claire changed the subject. "You...... Can you stay?"

Ashruphat let out a chuckle, but did not answer.

"I can feel it...... You...... Among the southerners, it is not an ordinary person. ”

"Two eyes, two hands, two legs, and a mouth. Ashrufat said. "Ordinary people can't be ordinary anymore. By the time he said this, he had once again lay down and looked at the top of the tent.

"No, you should be a ...... Leader!" Claire said categorically this time. "I've asked other people and that's what everyone says. Claire leaned closer. "As long as you want, you are ......"

"I'm here to find a woman. Ashrufat replied decisively. "That's all there is to it. And, it's time for me to leave. ”

"Leave?"

"Well, I've decided to leave the day after tomorrow. Ashrufat said. He rolled over, his back to the other. "That's what I said at the beginning. ”

"Wait, Eshurufat......" Maybe it was the categorical taste in Eshurufat's tone, and Claire was a little anxious. "Don't go, because you won't find it. ”

"Can't find it?" Ashrufat was taken aback this time.

"Because the woman ...... That fiancée of yours...... She never existed. Claire was also in a hurry. Her mind was now full of the fact that Ashrufat was leaving, and she even forgot that she should keep this secret for the Prince of Pleasure. "She is an incarnation of the Prince of Pleasure. ”

"Incarnation?" Ashrufat really felt inexplicable, and couldn't even understand it for a moment. "What do you mean?"

"She just asked you to come here...... You're here to entertain the prince!" said Claire. "You'll never find her!The Prince of Joy wants you to join our tribe...... It has to be like this!"

"Ah...... Ah......h Eventually, he let out a laugh.

"I'm sorry, Claire, I'm afraid you're mistaken. Ashrufat said. "What I am looking for is not the embodiment of nothingness, but a real woman. My fiancée was kidnapped by a horrified Chaos Lord and brought back to the Chaos Realm. So I came to find her. She's a person I know the roots. ”

"What...... What?" asked Claire instinctively. "Chaos Lord, snatched your fiancée, what's the name of that Chaos Lord. ”

"I don't know the exact name, but everyone else should call him 'Lord of the Blood Fangs'. Ashrufat replied. "Speaking of which, 'Bloodfang' doesn't feel like a name, but more like a nickname. But I've heard that he's also a well-known man in the midst of chaos. ”

"Lord of the Bloodfangs...... Bloodfang Lord...... Could it be the ...... The one who took over a large chunk of the lord in the South?" Claire finally came to her senses. "But he should be in the south. ”

"It's a pity that he suffered defeat and lost his territory. Ashrufat replied lightly. "I should have fled back to the prairie by now. The only problem is not knowing exactly where he is now. ”

"However, the Bloodfang Lord is a very powerful man!" Claire said. "You are looking for him to die. ”

"Not necessarily. Ashrufat replied. "Besides, I don't have to fight him. ”

Suddenly, footsteps were heard outside. Ashrufat rolled over and sat up, while Claire held her mace in her hand in a vigilant gesture.

"Good news, Claire," someone lifted the curtain door, and it was Gander's face that came in. "Asowen woke up. ”

During this time, on the one hand, because the injury was really not light, and on the other hand, because of the bumpy journey, the leader of the tribe, the wizard Asowen, has been in a coma and semi-comatose state. But in any case, he is the leader of the tribe and an indispensable magical combat force, so the people in the tribe also do their best to take care of him, and someone is responsible for feeding him every day and cooling him down when he has a high fever.

"I'll check it out right away. Claire replied immediately.

A few minutes later, Ashrufat and Claire arrived at Asowen's tent. Gander was right, Asowen had come to his senses. Although his body was still weak, he was completely conscious. In fact, he had been awake for some time and - quite naturally - already knew what was going on with the whole tribe. Gander had already returned to Asowen one step earlier, and there was another woman—a young and beautiful woman. She is the woman of Assowen, the forbidden kind.

"Claire, it looks like you're doing a good job. Seeing Claire's arrival, Asowen made this statement as soon as possible. His injury was inevitable, and since Claire was able to take his place temporarily, Asowen didn't care if she continued to stay in that position for a while. Moreover, it was clear that he still had a long time to recuperate, and it would be good for him to leave it to someone like Claire to take care of the specifics. Because it is clear that Claire is not yet a Chaos Warrior, her current status is like a reed, which will collapse as soon as the wind blows, and she cannot really pose a threat to Asowen.

The real threat to Asowen at this moment was his injuries - although he was awake now, no one could guarantee that he would not pass out again, or even die.

"Wizard-sama. Looking at Asowen, Claire felt a very conflicted feeling, happy on the one hand, disappointed on the other. Glad to see that things would turn out for the better with the guidance of the sorcerer's wisdom - Asowen had been in charge of the tribe for many years, and although he looked young on the outside, it was actually because of the gift of the Prince of Pleasure. At least, for as long as Claire can remember, Asowen has been at the top of the tribe. Disappointingly, she, the temporary leader who spent a lot of effort to get it, has completely become a worthless cabbage. "You're finally ......"

She was only halfway through her sentence when another man came in. It was Flint, the tribe's newly promoted Chosen Warrior.

Flint looked at Asowen and gestured. It's not deliberate, it's an inadvertent action. But this action reveals a lot of information. Contrary to Claire's restrained attitude, Flint didn't care much about what happened to the wizard when he came to his senses.

"Flint, I've heard of your great deeds. Assowen said with a smile. "It's amazing, you'll be able to ......" Perhaps it was the smile that tugged at the wound, and a sharp pain welled up in it, causing the wizard's whole body to convulse.

Flint glanced up at Ashrufat on the side, and when he saw that Ashrufat didn't say anything, he immediately spoke. "Lord Asowen, you should rest assured and take care of your injuries. The situation of the tribe is good, the place is private, there is plenty of food and water, we are safe here for the time being. ”

Asowen finally broke free from the wave of severe pain. The accident just now made his face pale and his expression awkward, and several people who came to visit thought that they should retire. The wizard is still there, and that's enough. With this veteran leader, the hearts of the people in the tribe will not be dissipated.

After everyone left, Asowen made a gesture with the hand he could still move, and Gander immediately came up to him. The wizard's face was a sickly red.

"Flint killed Atolian?" Asowen asked. "Has anyone seen it with their own eyes?"

Ashrufat was there, but he said he didn't see the process. Gander replied. "It was a scuffle, and it was normal for him to not have the leisure to observe. ”

"A Chaos Warrior killed a Chaos Lord...... Asowen asked. "Is this possible?" Ostensibly he was asking Gander, but in reality he was asking himself.

"Wizard, though it's unlikely...... It's as small as a person who falls to death on a flat road...... But you can't say 'impossible'. There are no absolutes, are there no absolutes? Perhaps, Atorian's carelessness in battle, perhaps, was an almost miraculous accident that occurred by chance. After all, the Chaos Lord can also be killed. ”

"That's right. Asowen groaned. "Before he came, I felt the same way. Perhaps it was really Atorian who was so arrogant that he made a big mistake in a battle that he shouldn't have lost. But now, I can believe that this is not the case. ”

"Oh. The tone in which Gander spoke showed that he was not very convinced of the wizard's judgment.

"Something special must have happened. The wizard said in a self-to-own tone.

"It's a secret. Gander said. "But why should we pursue the secret truth? Is the truth important? It's a fact that Atolian is dead, and it's enough for us to know that, isn't it?"

"Nope. Asowen said. "Now, a miracle has happened. If we can find out the real reason behind this miracle, maybe we can make this miracle happen a second time. He continued to speak to himself. "We're ...... now It was so much in need of a miracle. ”

Footsteps were heard outside, and the tent door was lifted again, and Ashrufat walked in alone.

"Ashrufat, what's wrong?" Gander asked immediately.

"I'm sorry, Master Wizard, Gander. Ashrufat looked left and right, seemingly hesitant, but finally spoke. "I have a small question...... Have you ever heard of the name 'Lord of the Bloodfangs'?"

"Lord of the Bloodfangs?" Gander and Asowen glanced at each other. "Of course, a horrified Chaos Lord. ”

"What kind of person is he?"

"Ah, Lord of the Bloodfangs...... There are rumors that he is married to a tiger, but it is clear that the tiger had to divorce him because of domestic violence and abuse. Gander replied. "However, if you want to find him, I'm afraid it's more difficult. Previous years...... He led an army and occupied a piece of southerners' land...... It seems to be a castle or something, and he has made himself the ruler...... But now, he didn't know where he was going. ”

Really...... Ashruphat is also somewhat of a bit of a figure now. The Chaos tribes also passed on news through various trade exchanges. The more powerful the tribe, the more qualified it is to trade with anyone, and the more information it will know. All a small tribe like Asowen can do is shrink into a corner and do everything possible to hide itself. Don't talk about trade, thank God for not being discovered. In this case, their news was naturally very closed, and even the Chaos Legion invaded the south and was eventually defeated was known from Ashrufat.

In this tribe, Ashrufat did not have access to the information he needed. He'd have to find a way to reach out to more tribes, especially the big ones, so he can get information about the Bloodfang Lord.
