Chapter 21: Hypocrisy
That's right, Will can't do it......
Richard had not taught him to be ungrateful, and Will's good-natured nature would not allow him to kill a ...... he knew Girlish!
It has nothing to do with what Will has done before, it's just about human nature......
Once there is communication, even if it is just a relationship that is no longer a stranger, Will will not be able to do it.
Will was silent for a long time, and finally he shook his head with a wry smile and sat down a little tired.
The dazzling light emitted by the Redemption Sanctuary made people's eyes feel very uncomfortable, Will hesitated for a moment, then sighed lightly, picked up a short sword from the side that had come to the Salvation Sanctuary before, and gently threw it at Tina.
Tina didn't catch it, and it wasn't until the sound of blades crashing on the ground that she looked down blankly at the sharp dagger at her feet.
Will closed his eyes, but his face was completely missing the previous violence, only gloom and helplessness. As if afraid of making the girl in front of him feel frightened, Will deliberately slowed down his speech and said unusually gently, "...... I'm sorry I couldn't complete your request...... I am sorry for the calamity I have brought upon you Lacales, though it is not my intention, and I have heard of your Lacales on the battlefields of the North. But in any case, this is all in the past...... Perhaps, I should say thank you to you, thank you for bringing me back from the far north, back to the heart of Rome. Even though this is not my hometown, it is much better to die here than there. You've probably already experienced the bitter cold in Ivey......"
The moment he closed his eyes, everything that had happened in half a year was like a pair of rapidly alternating murals, quickly rotating in front of Will's eyes.
Their contents varied, and most of them were Will's more impressive memories.
For example, discussing the planning of the territory with the tribesmen in the north, such as going to the Warcraft Forest with Uncle Cohen and his guards to hunt, such as ...... Later, during the war, the people died out and their homes were lost......
Slowly opening his eyes and seeing the surprise gradually appearing on the girl's face, Will sighed, he had never hated his so-called "kindness" more than he did now.
Will clearly sensed that due to the lack of sufficient soul nourishment, the energy contained in the Sanctuary of Salvation was becoming less and less. This also means that after about two minutes, the Salvation Sanctuary that has lost its energy will collapse in an instant!
However, while it collapses, if there are more than one living beings in the realm, then the damned divine power of the Lord contained in the realm will instantly penetrate the bodies of the living, incinerating all existence with holy flames!
Will can't understand why Jehovah, who is so hostile to the holy family, simply sends down the so-called divine punishment like the gods in Rome?
In this way, the results are much more effective than this unworthy sanctuary of salvation.
However, after entering the sanctuary of redemption, Will clearly sensed that Yahweh was trying to torment the Holy Family.
Moreover, theoretically speaking, as long as the Salvation Sanctuary has enough souls to fill, it will last forever, of course, the length of time it lasts, the quality and quantity of souls required, all depend on the strength and number of unlucky people imprisoned within the Salvation Sanctuary.
Now, I'm such an unlucky guy.
After two minutes or so, once one of them and Tina and himself did not lose their lives, then he and Tina would both be devoured by the Holy Flame!
Will glanced up unwillingly, but all he could see was an arc of light that could touch the entity.
Will also knew that if he killed Tina before the Redemption Sanctuary was about to collapse, then there was a good chance that he would be able to rush out without Laika reacting and continuing to inject new souls into the Redemption Sanctuary!
Because, Tina's soul alone cannot meet the energy needed to extend the time of the Salvation Sanctuary!
But......
“...... Tina, I ask you now, do what you want me to do, to you...... Just outside Laika with ...... Your father's conversation, you should have heard. The Holy See's reinforcements for Laika should be coming soon. So, even if I get out, I won't be able to kill Laika, and I won't be able to continue avenging our compatriots......"
"It can be said that if the person who enters the Sanctuary of Salvation is not you, but someone else, such as the bishop named Corando, and the Roman nobleman who grovels to the Holy See, or even ...... It's your father, I can simply deal with them, and then continue to use my blood to erode the Sanctuary of Redemption...... Just give me another ten minutes and I'll be able to get out...... Unfortunately, it was all too late. ”
"Now it seems that even if the best scenario is followed, after I leave the Sanctuary, I will face many other legendary powerhouses besides Laika's damned traitor...... I can't leave, so just do what you have to do...... If I die at your hands, I should be able to compensate you and your people for something...... And I don't want to die at the hands of that vile and shameless villain of Laika...... If I die at your hands, he will be so angry that he will die...... Hehe......"
Will closed his eyes again, ready for his own death. However, the death that was persistently waiting did not wait for the familiar pain. On the contrary, a body full of warmth embraced him when he was about to continue to speak!
Will opened his eyes in amazement, only to find himself tightly hugged by the girl who had only seen him twice in a sense!
The girl didn't know when she burst into tears.
The tears that dripped from her smooth and round face made Will see it, and he didn't know why he suddenly felt distressed......
"You...... What's wrong with you?"
"I ...... I don't know ......."
Obviously, neither of them intended to let the other die......
......
Because the conversation between the two in the Sanctuary of Redemption was deliberately kept low, the conversation between Will and Tina was not heard by the outside world.
Laika was still boasting to the others with a smug face, and now she couldn't find the panic that had just appeared on his face.
At this moment, the few people who were still in the highest position in the Colosseum were also barely squeezing out almost similar smiles on their faces, and it seemed that they had forgotten Laika's order to send them to death just now!
In the middle of the staircase next to the highest position, Chiyo Hattori felt a flower in front of her eyes, and all the images of Will and Tina that appeared in front of her disappeared.
Chiyo Hattori's face was only blank...... She didn't know what kind of mood she should be in right now.
The environment she has been in since she was a child determines Chiyo Hattori's dull personality, or rather, because of the environment Chiyo Hattori lived in when she was a child, she will always be half a beat slower than others emotionally.
However, this does not prevent Hattori Chiyo from recognizing her feelings for Will - she loves Will.
This kind of love is not the kind of love between brothers and sisters, but between lovers and lovers...... Love.
She also forgot when she first developed that emotion towards Will, and thought about it carefully, it should have been when she was a child, when she first met Will's uncle Cohen, and when she was taken to play by Cohen's daughter, she saw the ...... that Cohen's daughter let her see Romantic knight or something.
However, Chiyo Hattori has always buried her feelings for Will deep in her heart (but in reality, it is often revealed and known to others other than Will).
Because, Hattori Chiyo knows very well how Will sees himself - he just sees himself as a sister.
That's right, with a sister like Vera.
Chiyo Hattori was terrified, how would Will react if she opened her mouth to show this emotion to Will?
Because she cherished Will very much, she didn't even dare to take a risk, so the relationship between the two of them has been stable for seven years......
Chiyo Hattori often thinks about telling Will about his inner feelings, but in the end, he always retreats.
Suddenly, one day, Chiyo Hattori learned from a casual joke when Cui Ming and Moying had nothing to do that Will seemed to have the kind of emotion that Chiyo Hattori yearned for a girl named Hydra.
At that moment, Chiyo Hattori felt like the sky was falling, and she still remembered how embarrassed she was at that time - tears welled up uncontrollably, still in the crowd.
Fortunately, she quickly disappeared in place with her swift speed, at least, without anyone else noticing.
That night, Chiyo Hattori quietly left the family with him, following the father-son henchmen of Richard and Will to find a young girl named Hydra.
On the third day, after the faithful men brought back the news that there was no woman named Hydra in the Holy Clan, Chiyo Hattori temporarily let go of his inner turmoil.
It wasn't until later that Cui Ming and Moying mentioned it again, saying that the girl named Hydra only appeared in Will's dream that Hattori Chiyo completely let go of the worries in his heart.
However, the good times did not last long, and a series of events after his trip to Rome seemed to confirm Hydra's existence......
Then, the day we returned to the city of Deya...... Chiyo Hattori stayed behind Will, reassuring him that day......
That night, because of a rare argument with his father, Will had been depressed, but later, he behaved ...... Not to feel like Atlas any longer?
On that night, Chiyo Hattori instinctively felt a wave of uncomfortable sensations, like ...... It's the kind that has been targeted by poisonous snakes...... Under the weather. And the node of Will's mood change seems to be before and after that feeling.
Afterward...... The girl with long dark green hair named Hydra suddenly appeared.
Later, it was under her leadership that Will insisted on going to the depths of the Warcraft Forest as if he was enchanted......
And finally, what happened last night......
Also, he appeared here inexplicably, and it seemed that his soul was lodged in the body of this man named Brutum.
Everything in this world is strange.
Will in this world is also a stranger to Chiyo Hattori - even if she is still worried about him, even if there is still kindness in him that touches her......
Chiyo Hattori slowly closed her eyes, and she kept convincing herself that it was all just a dream.
However, Chiyo Hattori also speculated based on what Hydra said before sending her into this world that this young girl named Tina should be ...... Is it Hydra?
But what happened during this period?
Chiyo Hattori still did not forget to be cautious, slowly exhaled, adjusted his breathing, and slowly touched towards the supreme position.
Although her heart is very unpeaceful now...... But what needs to be done, still has to be done!
"Hehehe...... Will that guy, this time it's dead!Stuart ...... The Holy See will remember you and your daughter's deeds...... I will personally state the loyalty of the Lacales clan to His Majesty Basseny. Staring gloomily at the Sanctuary of Redemption, Laika sneered a few times, glanced at Flavies, who was standing on the side, with a changing expression on his face, and knew in his heart that he was worried that the Holy See would support Stuart, King of Lacalles, to regain his position, which would affect the interests of the Roman Empire. So, Laika said gently: "Of course, Flavis, the Holy See will not forget your dedication...... All of you here will be rewarded as you deserve, especially those warriors who volunteered to give everything for the Lord...... They even had the courage to sacrifice their lives to fight the evil Black Death!"
Laika said solemnly, but no matter how he performed now, his hypocrisy had been clearly seen by these people who were still alive in the highest position.
However, when faced with the temptation of profit, all people will become hypocritical.
"Stuart......" Laika looked at Stuart first, he made a compassionate expression, and said in a deep voice, "I am saddened by all the disasters brought to Lacales by the Black Death Lewell ......"
Apparently, Laika intends to blame Will for everything that happened here.
"Yes...... Archbishop, grateful...... Your condolences ......" Stuart, King of Lacales, was about to say more, but he said these words anyway, and he only felt as disgusting as if he had eaten a mouthful of flies!
"Hmm...... I will ask the Holy See to have a cardinal come and preach......" Laika said as he looked at Stuart reservedly, and the meaning of his words could not be more obvious - the mission of a cardinal, whatever the effect, represents the approval of Lacales by the Holy See!
This means that Lacales will be tied to the chariot of the Holy See and gallop forward in the new world dominated by the Holy See!
"Thank you, Archbishop......" Stuart bowed his head, as a king, he had to ...... Bowed his head.
