Chapter 362: The Lost Lamb
How pitiful, how pathetic, that a girl should exchange a dagger for a windmill on the other side of the scale...... Looking down at Fiona's brown eyes, Glori saw a flickering light. However, it was a light that shocked Glori, and there was nothing but coldness.
"You've got to fall here!"
Hearing Fiona's words, Glori couldn't help but want to sneer. However, Glori couldn't laugh out loud. For the poor girl, let out a sneer, Glori couldn't do it.
Afraid that her reaction would make Fiona do something more out of the ordinary, Glori suddenly opened her left hand as if she had touched a thunderbolt, and slowly moved her left hand away from the dagger that had just been clenched. Then, with a sword swing in his right hand, Glori vented his anger on the assassin.
After the assassin let out a wail from behind, Glori nudged Fiona's right shoulder. "Girl named Fiona, please get out of here, and please never go back to the place you have to go back to. β
Glori's meaning is to make Fiona stop what she wants to do, escape from the place where freedom is bound, never be dictated by the bad guys, never return to the place where the bad guys live. And the place where Fiona is going to return is undoubtedly the Church of Runees - the reason why I think this is because Glori saw the carving of the word "fire" at the end of the dagger.
Unexpectedly, Fiona smiled wryly and asked Glori, "Where can I go? Perhaps, I should join them, because I am also homeless. Perhaps, on any day, in which corner, I will be like those poor people...... Lie there forever. β
"Maybe, you can find some partners. Perhaps, you can go southwest, there is a town called Feitian, where some righteous people are located. Moreover, a seventeen-year-old girl who dares to hold a dagger in her hand should have the courage to bear some ordeals. β
In fact, looking at Fiona, Glori didn't say anything, just a flash of persuasion in his heart. Just as he felt pity, Glori realized that the girl was just trying to attract attention with pitiful words. Even though Fiona didn't let out a smug smile, Glori saw Fiona's gaze look away.
As the wind followed the blade, Glori shoved Fiona's right shoulder. Stepping to the left, turning, and leaning, Glori raised his sword in his right hand and sent the tip of the sword high into the air. And just like that, Glori lay down and stopped an assailant who pounced.
But that's not the end of the story.
While Glori struggled to get up, a fourth assailant ran in from the south. Without saying a word, he swept over Glori's head, and the assailant dropped his sword.
Bang, crisp and deafening.
Glori looked at the sword that landed on the left side of his neck, and thrust with his left hand at the assailant who had been pierced by the tip of Glori's sword. Tumbling to the right, holding the ground with his left hand and standing up on one knee, Glory swung his sword south.
For the first sword, Glori just sent out a sword wave. Immediately afterward, Glori swung his second sword, which was sharp enough to bring down the fourth assailant.
After a struggle, Glori looked around, but still couldn't find Luna and Dragon. When the wind whistled again, Glori heard the croaking of crows.
There was no trace of sympathy in the crow's cry, only the coldness in Glori's ears. Glori was sure of Luna and Dragon's intentions, and it turned out that he was just watching everything happen and end.
Very good, things are not good or bad. At the very least, Glori could get guidance from Luna and Dragona about the magic of darkness. It was fair enough, because in exchange, Luna and Dragon were able to witness a human's struggle.
Rest assured, right?
The one you are going to look at will never go astray again, much less a lamb to the slaughter. At least, in the face of darkness.
Glori swung his sword, spilling the blood from it, and scanned the first assailant who had been knocked down from the south by the basket and the fifth assailant standing to the west near Fiona.
"It doesn't matter who you are...... Drop your sword, and you will be gone. β
Glori persuaded the bad comer. Glori knew that the next time he swung his sword, it would be life or death. At the very least, before that sad thing happens, do something, say somethingβas long as it can make a person lose their way, Glori is willing to do a little more.
Coming back to his senses, he looked at the first attacker and the fifth attacker, and Glori found that they were the only ones frowning. On the battlefield, Glori had seen a similar ferocity - the attacker in front of him was in a state of murderous urgency. Glori knew that the sword in his hand was about to bathe in blood again.
Respect for life, the kindness in Glori's heart is at work. In particular, there is a seventeen-year-old girl in front of me. However, in such a dangerous situation, shouldn't it be normal for a person to take care of his own safety?
"Fiona, get out of here, no matter what, don't be so tormented by life that you forget the good. Think about it, the happy times you had. Perhaps, the people of the Land of Flowers do not want to see your current ferocity at all. Yes, a child should not be infected by evil. β
Glori repeatedly persuaded. However, all Glori could see was Fiona sneering and retreating. And the dagger that was used to do evil was still in Fiona's left hand. Euro eBook
Gradually, Glori shifted his gaze away from the dagger and back to Fiona's face. Fiona was still smiling, but with a wry smile.
It is also true that a person has taken the wrong path and it is not so easy to turn back. However, not everyone understands this.
Perhaps, Fiona is regretting it.
Glori stepped forward, not intending to snatch Fiona's dagger. Glori knew that the dagger was the only thing Fiona could use to show her courage and anger. Perhaps, a girl who can hold a dagger tightly has not given up the pursuit of a better life, and perhaps, a girl who has been displaced by war will only be left with the anger when wielding a dagger.
Yes, a hope should be given. Also, one more persuasion.
Glori stopped the second step he wanted to take. "Fiona, what would you do if you met another poor child? Would you use the dagger in your hand to help him finish a sumptuous dinner? Or would you use the dagger in your hand to snatch the only precious thing in the poor child's hands?"
"No, don't ask, don't say that!"
Fiona was a little anxious, and even held back tears from the corners of her eyes. It was as if Glori had said something that Fiona would never forget. Step by step, Fiona retreated.
"Don't go any further!"
Fiona, still couldn't hold back. She shouted directly, and even raised her dagger. Images flashed through her mind, Fiona saw the burning of houses and heard people's cries for help.
It was in the Knights' City that Fiona witnessed a human tragedy - the black dragon flying overhead, leaving behind a blood-red color that soaked the sky, some struggling in the dark fire, and others fleeing without caring for their families in the carriage.
In one corner, Fiona found her family.
Luckily, Fiona's family survived the baptism of the Order Legion. Fiona, who loves the one who survived. Later, Fiona saw her family fall under the battle between people. Although Fiona knew that her family had committed serious crimes, she could not help but hate those who caused the disaster.
Javier was one of the creators of that disaster. Fiona remembers very well that after the Order Clan had invaded the Knights' City, in a Bloodblade Inquisition Court run by the Bishop of the Church of Light, Javier sat on the podium while her family was tied up with ropes under the stage.
In fact, Fiona's family had a tragic end, not because of Javier, but because Fiona's family had been involved in the assassination of the court minister. Moreover, it was a terrible thing to do - the assassination of Lord Xavier, a loyal servant of the Kingdom of Alex, of the Magic Seminar.
If you have to blame for Fiona's misery, you can only blame it on endless desires. In order to be protected by the nobles, Fiona's family compromised their rights and would rather do things that hurt nature and reason.
Looking back, after some inner fighting, Fiona was staring at Glori. This time, it wasn't just Glori who questioned.
Fiona asked, "Blue Star, how did you get out of the torments of life?"
"Absolutely. β
Glori replied bluntly. Moreover, Glori felt that what had happened in the past was nothing to dodge, after all, it had already happened.
"Wolfer, who was a headache for me. Whether it was in the City of Miracles or in Mr. Mayne's student boarding life, Wuver kept me on the lookout and on the lookout. Sometimes, Wooder would wake me up in the middle of the night, and I couldn't bear to disturb the instructors. So, I had to endure the Woffer toss. And Wuver, he will take my sword. When I caught up, Wofer carried his sword to the edge of the steep slope and threatened me with the intention of losing it. β
Fiona was a little interested in Glori's words. Even, she asked the man who was going to attack Glori to stand aside. "So, what about later?"
Later, Wolfer dropped his sword. As for me, there was no fighting, but I climbed down the steep slope in the middle of the night in search of the sword that Wuver had used as scrap metal. No one knows how important that sword is to me. Whether it's wielding a sword to practice or protecting the people around me, that sword has always been my help. β
As he spoke, Glori shrugged his shoulders and said that the past was over. In life, there will be some headaches, and you just need to face them. If you really can't do it, you can find someone to help and talk to someone. In short, don't get lost on the road.
So, when you're lost, be careful. Perhaps, when you let go of the stones in your heart, you will usher in a ray of light, or perhaps, the next day, you will see a different world, like a new life. β
"That's a feeling of enlightenment. I know!" replied Fiona, neatly.
When she saw Glori put away her sword, Fiona said excitedly, "But, can you help me convince the people of the Rune Church?"
