The tip of the sword pierced Benita's skin, leaving a drop of blood on the blade.

Naomi stood still, not knowing whether to advance or retreat.

There's no way she'll give up Benita's life, but she's not stupid enough to leave her life and death in the hands of the other party.

"How can you guarantee that I'll let us go when I drop my weapon. ”

Raleigh smiled grimly:

"I can't guarantee that I won't be able to save my life if I let you escape, but I can guarantee that at least you won't die right now.

"You are the property of the adults, and if I kill you, I will be punished too. ”

Even if they surrendered, they would only survive a little longer, and if she did it, at least one would survive.

Naomi tried to convince herself that.

But she couldn't.

Naomi sighed:

"You win, I give up. ”

Naomi let go of the weapon and landed on the ground.

Raleigh did not let his guard down and continued:

"Kick the dagger aside. ”

Benita saw it all.

Because of the difficult life in the past, her comprehension ability is much stronger than that of children of the same age.

In her opinion, as long as Naomi doesn't care about her life or death, she can easily kill Raleigh and escape from here, and no one will know that the famous female thief Naomi abandoned a poor girl in a dark basement.

But she didn't choose to sacrifice herself, whether the other party wanted to find another way to save herself, or really gave up the struggle, she made a choice.

She chose Benita.

It's an unfair world, her parents abandoned her, no one cared about her except her sister and teachers, the boys bullied her for fun, and she was caught by the bad guys and even bled to death when she had always listened to her sister.

It's an unjust world, helping a weak thief get caught by the bad guys, and no one will save her, as if the good things she once did were completely meaningless, and she could have escaped and fell into a desperate situation for the sake of her own burden.

Everything was so bad, the world was the same as Benita imagined, but there were many people she never thought of, either in groups or alone, fighting against evil and injustice.

Naomi kicked the dagger away, but instead of kicking it to the side, it sent it to Raleigh's face.

The woman leaned down and rushed towards Raleigh.

Her goal is Benita, and she doesn't plan to give up on the girl, nor does she plan to tie her hands down.

Raleigh swung the sword against the girl's body forward, sending the dagger flying.

As the blade left Benita, a strong inertia constrained its movement.

It's too late to recycle the blade and threaten Naomi again, but it can continue to slash forward.

The wanderer dodged her weapon nimbly as she ran, the sword passing through the outside of her right arm, a narrow streak of blood appearing, flesh peeling open for faint bone.

But Naomi was still moving forward, and she was about to touch Benita, just a little closer.

Bang!

The basement door was opened, and boots were made up the stairs.

A real chill instantly filled the room.

Both sides froze in place, holding their original positions.

The person who came wore a mask that was familiar to everyone present.

Raleigh smiled flatteringly:

"My lord, they somehow got their hands on the weapons, and they killed my other companions in an attempt to escape, but fortunately I stopped them in desperation. ”

"Desiray" walked up to Raleigh.

Raleigh felt a little abnormal, and hurriedly handed the girl out in his arms, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Excellency. We have not let our guard down, and the influx of this weapon has absolutely nothing to do with me. ”

"Desire" took the girl.

Benita didn't try to escape, but turned her head to look at Naomi, her mouth opened slightly, and she said two words silently:

Come on!

Benita then pounced on "Desiré", hugged his thigh, and then slammed into his outer thigh.

She didn't expect that she would be able to really block Desire's actions, she just hoped that the other party would vent her anger on her because of her actions, creating a chance for Naomi to escape.

If she can't run away from them all, then at least she wishes she could save others like Naomi.

Naomi did not take the opportunity to leave, nor did she provoke "Desire", but shouted:

"Don't hurt her, she's just a child, you come at me for anything, no matter what you do to ......"

"Desire" snorted softly:

"Ahh ”

Raleigh was stunned, this was not an adult's voice.

"That's impressive...... the Masked Man sighed, "Mistress Tyr has asked me to take over the Rathat for the time being, and someone else will continue D'Isireth's work later." ”

Being able to access Raleigh, who is able to transport blood, is naturally not only a member of the Rat Hat Gang, but also a fringe member of the White Lions Club.

Raleigh opened his mouth dumbly:

"Where's Lord Desire?"

Hewen said softly:

"Dead, miserable. ”

Raleigh wanted to say something, but Hewen had already inserted his crampon-turned hand into his chest.

He finally kept his eyes wide open and slowly fell, as if he didn't understand why the other party wanted to kill him.

Hervin's sudden killing of his own men sent chills through the crowd, and Benita unconsciously let go.

He looked at the remaining three and touched his chin:

"I am very touched by your self-sacrifice, how can I reward you?"

Naomi smiled stubbornly:

"Hmph, don't pretend, you're all killers, do you want to reward us for a peaceful death. ”

Hervin says:

"No, I'm going to reward you for your freedom. ”

He half-crouched down and gently patted Benita on the back.

Naomi exclaimed:

"Don't. ”

Hervin comforted softly:

"Kid, it's okay, the bad guy is dead. ”

Benita stared blankly at the Iron Mask, a little incredulous that it was all over.

Naomi stared at Hervin for fear that he would suddenly smack the back of the girl's chest at Benita as he had just done.

Herwin stood up again:

"Désiré's actions were not our intention, and soon someone will come here to take his place, and soon you will be free. ”

Naomi asked suspiciously:

"Why don't you just let us go. ”

Hervin says:

"Of course, we'll need to do a little bit of tricking your brain to make sure you don't talk nonsense when you go out, but I can promise it's harmless. ”

He only took Desire's place temporarily.

Although Tyr offered him to take over the Rathats, he declined and recommended another deputy.

Mary Anne will soon be over and continue her activities as Désiré to take control of the underground organization, and she will let them all go after making sure no one can reveal the secrets of the White Lions.

And Hewen will make sure that this thing goes smoothly.
