Volume 3 The Song of the Dragon and the Wind Chapter 108 Slaying the Demon (2)
Susan and Pod get enough herbs from the basement to make poison with the help of a magic shop that sells potions, which always reminds Susan of her past happiness.
Susan's family is fairly wealthy, but she also has a younger sister at home, so she has become ingenious. When she met Glori, she found that many things were easier, and she just had to watch him and Dylan do the troublesome things.
Later, receiving Glori's attention became Susan's habit. She wished for Glori's peace and happiness, and prayed for him both when she parted in the City of Miracles and when she was in danger. When she heard the girl's name from Glori's mouth, she always did, as evidenced by the desperate crying at Camp East.
"Glori needs to form a team, do you have any thoughts?" asked Susan trying. She hoped that Glori would have a trusted friend like Pod and Dylan.
"You should ask Mr. Glorie Carlos, you must have misunderstood, I'm just an outsider. Pod explained.
"Well, I don't mean anything else. I was going to ask them about it tonight, but they were arguing as soon as they got back here, and I wasn't sure if Sister Oraya's advice was correct. Susan explained as she mixed the potion with the bottle.
"Guests, this is not Redreeve City or Mochizuki City after all, so I won't ask about what you've developed. I can rest assured that everything in the Glaive is happening right under the eyes of the Church Knights. One thing I want to tell you is that you can use whatever you want here, but don't break it. It's not easy to get these things from Redleaf City. Said the owner of the imitation magic shop.
"Well, thank you for allowing us to use here, we'll be careful. Susan chimed in.
"Susan, do you care about their quarrel? I think Glori will settle it. Actually, they are all too tired, and they will get better after resting. After grinding the other herb, she weighed it and handed it to Susan.
"You have a point. You've been through so many life-threatening things with them along the way. Thank you. Susan said gratefully. She is grateful that Pod has been with her friend, and is happy because of Pod's kindness, especially when she hears that Glori has been being cared for by Pod.
Despite their caution, they were careless, not noticing that Alison was following them with stealth magic. Wrapped tightly in a cloak, Allison was hiding in the narrow alleyway between the houses, eavesdropping on their conversation through the walls. She was here because Silver wanted to know when they were going to put the poison.
"It's time for us to go back, the potions are ready. Susan breathed a sigh of relief. She placed the potion in a cloth bag.
"Well, these coins are for the boss, and this is what Wei gave me. Pod handed the coin to Susan and explained.
"It seems that their potion is finished, I had better go back first and tell Master Silver so that he can be prepared. Alison disappeared into the night and muttered to herself, but felt sorry for herself. She thought of herself because of Susan's words. She liked Silver, but she could only run errands for him.
When Alison returned to church, it was late at night, and Corriz and Gudo were having dinner.
"Hahaha, tell me, what happened on the night of June 5th, and what burned down my lab?" Gudo raised the corner of his right mouth and looked at Coritz. His eyes are like those of the arrogant rich man to the commoners, a world where the rich are respected, and the commoners are as low as the slaves who are called.
"My esteemed pharmacist...... No, my esteemed Ruler of the vast Church, forget about it. Half of the church was left, which I didn't want to see, and it was all drunks who were in trouble and smoked cigarette bags in my garden. Coritz replied with a sycophancy. But he didn't like Gudo's eyes, even disgusted.
"I've always been concerned about those luna flowers, don't you know how dangerous they are? Gudo rebuked.
"Of course, but those flowers are really attractive. Coritz explained. He stood up and bowed, and toasted again.
"Because of the charm of these flowers, you will not hesitate to spend the magic of the church magicians to feed them!hmph!" Gudo poured a bottle of potion down. Coritz was a coward who didn't have the guts to hit the institute's idea, he thought. And it took a lot of effort on the part of Corritz, and when he thought about it, he didn't want to ask any more, he knew that Corriz wouldn't spend his fortune.
"My lord, don't mention those Luna Flowers, I've already tasted the torment of these flowers. Corriz waved to the nearby servants.
"Your Excellency?" asked Schredder, bending over.
"Get rid of all the flowers, of course!" Corriz retorted.
"Well, sir, I'll just do whatever you say. Schrader didn't understand what Krytz was doing, because he would carry water to water the flowers himself every day, and Kryze told him not to slack off. Now, Corriz told him to destroy these rare flowers once and for all. "Hey, I can't figure out what the master thinks in my life. He muttered as he went out.
Alison, who had just returned to church, was bumped into by Schredder, who was thinking about things with his head down. "Be careful, you've soiled my clothes. She reprimanded.
"Miss, I'm sorry, let me go this time. I have other things to do. Next time, I'll say more nice things for you in front of Master Silver. Shredder apologized vigorously and begged Allison to let him go. Electronic Chinese Network
Alison carefully cleaned up Silver and her clothes. "That's a good idea. Let's go, it's better never let me see you. The displeasure on her face vanished.
"Miss, the young master was looking for you just now, and dinner is about to end. Guy Golden said, standing in the hallway.
"Well, Uncle Guy Golden, I'll go over here. Allison was in a better mood when she heard Silver looking for her. So, Allison traveled to Silver's residence. But soon, she was disappointed.
"Young Master, may I ask you for what you are looking for me?" Alison asked respectfully as she pushed open the door.
At this point, Martin walked into the room wearing a suit of armor. "Alison, when you come back, it means that the poison is ready, let's plan it tonight. Silver said with a smile to Martin.
"Master, why is Martin here......? I understand. Allison wanted to say a few words to Silver, but had to go back to her room to prepare.
That night, Silver and his men wore night suits and watched Glori and his companions in the dark.
"Glori, let me go this time. Susan tried to get the poison out of Glori's hands. Glori had agreed to poison Susan and Pod, but he was still worried and found Susan and the others on the streets of the village. And now, they are outside the window of Gudo's room. Gudo's room was guarded by the wizards of the Order Clan, and they had to hide from the guards.
"While Kryze is stalling at the banquet, we need to get the poison thing done as soon as possible. Glori didn't let go of the hand holding the vial.
"I don't think any of you are suitable for this, so I'd better do it. Remember, you owe me one more time. Pod snatched the vial and disappeared into the shadows. She entered through the window where she had been coated with Victorian powder.
"Well, this is...... The test bottles that have been bubbling are supposed to be the boiling potions that Kryz is talking about. There was only one bottle of poison, but there were so many of these potions, which one would he drink tonight?" This is inconsistent with the news given by Coritz, originally Gudo had a habit of developing a bottle of boiling potion a day, but today is an exception, Gudo has developed many bottles after he returned.
"The feast is over, and you'd better put away the empty bottle you took from Gudo-sama and keep it out of sight of Gudo. Otherwise, your fingers may become materials for his alchemy. Outside the door came the sound of the guards chatting.
"I'll be careful. The remnants of these empty bottles were strong enough to refresh me all day, and it made me not tired at all while tormenting those humans and gods. Thinking about the screams of those guys before they died, I get excited. Another gatekeeper replied.
Suddenly, the lights in the hallway came on, and Glori and Susan lowered their posture outside the window, but they were frightened by the next scene, and Gudo's room was lit by the firelight.
"Oh no, Gudo is coming back. Pod almost cried out. And the flash magic on her body actually failed.
After surveying her surroundings, Glori quickly jumped into the window and covered Pod's mouth from behind. "Shhh, be quiet, you go out of the window first, and I'll take care of the rest. He said. He calmly examined the furnishings on the test bench. Only then did he understand the reason why the pods had taken so long.
"You go first. Afterwards, meet at the hotel. Glori hid on the side of the window and whispered to the outside window.
"Then be careful, don't be caught by them. Susan didn't hesitate to take Pod's hand and leave. She knew to trust Glori.
Glori heard footsteps outside getting closer. Suddenly, it occurred to him about the guards of the rooms of Gudo, whom Corryz had mentioned, one of whom liked to collect remnant potions. So, he poured out a portion of a bottle of boiling potion, then poured the poison into the mixture and put it back in place. When he pushed all the other pill bottles off the table and smashed them, he immediately jumped out of the window and walked away along the wall.
"There's a sound in the house!" the guard pushed the door in.
By this time, Gudo had already arrived here with Coritz, who hurriedly hurried a few steps on crutches and entered the house to check.
"Damn it. Can't you guys do this well? Wait, let me take a closer look. Gudo entered the house and looked around carefully. Corriz turned his back to them and whispered a spell. As a result, the empty bottle penetrated the pocket of the mage who had collected the remnants of the potion and fell to the ground. With a "click", the bottle shattered.
"My lord, this ......" The guard was at a loss for what to do, his legs limp and spread on the ground.
"So it's you?" Gudo took out the potion from the bone bag around his waist and poured it on the guard. The guard shuddered and turned into a dry skeleton in an instant. The dry bone stood up and left a moment later, heading to the Legion garrison of Gudor to continue his duties.
"Ah, one more thing. I heard that you've been entertaining a few rare guests from me lately?" said Gudo looked at Kriz, with a low face.
