Chapter 247: The Iron-Leaf Tree, Never Withers (2)

A jar of chili sauce, Glori took a sip. Next, it's time to lift the sword. The spicy bite warmed Glori's heart, and in his opinion, it was better than drinking.

"Opportunities never wait for unprepared people. Glori said.

"Are you sure you're going like this? Mochizuki is embattled, you're too risky," Zoe reminded, "and you'll have to take care of Susan, she doesn't know you're alive." ”

"Yes, I have to take into account her feelings. I could have done what Evan said, using the disguise technique, but leaving without meeting was not the solution, because it would make Susan uneasy. Glori smiled.

Glori rechecked the rivets from his armor and placed them on the wooden crate. Next, a thin layer of molten iron was poured onto the left side of the breastplate, and the Bloody Sword Insignia was placed smoothly on it.

Zoe frowned as she watched as Glori did her final work.

Glori's gaze was determined, and his face was grim, and all his movements were so deliberate. Waiting quietly for the emblem to cool, he then sanded the spilled molten iron layer with sand until the inlay of the emblem was as delicate as handwork and straight.

"The Bloody Sword Insignia is the symbol of Alex's Kingdom. After all that I've been through, I'm supposed to be on Lord Bard's side, and the Knights of Merit is where I'm supposed to be—a knight who fights for the common people. Glori said calmly.

"If you do, what about our team?" said Zoe disappointed.

"I'd love to see Dylan and Iris back, but it's hard. Dylan and Iris must have thought the same thing, didn't you question me because I heard about the Glaive Cliffs?" Glory said calmly, but without complaining.

"I'm sorry, but I'm just making sure to you, because it's about the fate of the city. If I don't, then Evan will definitely want Zachary to torment you longer. Zoe explained.

"Of course I don't care about this, I apologize to you. Even if the Loyalty Tree is green for a long time, no one can guarantee that the tree around it will be of the same species. You're doing the right thing, and I agree with it. I'm just annoyed by the things about Dylan. Glori said uncomfortably.

Zoe saw Glori press down on the left side of her head. She understood that the prolonged insomnia was causing Glorry's head to ache.

"It's all up to you. I hope each of you is safe......" Zoe looked forward to. Originally, Zoe wanted to say that Iris would speak in this tone, but saying this was taboo and would only have the opposite effect. So, she made the words completely her own.

"What can I do if Xavier the Holy Mage and Evan the Spell Mage can't deal with Silver? Either way, I'm ready to do whatever it takes, for this city was bought back by the sacrifices of many. Glori said solemnly.

"So, what are you going to say to Susan?" asked Zoe with a shrug.

Going forward, that's probably the best answer. Each of us has to move forward, and we simply can't stop because of the hope in our hearts. Glori said.

After a moment, Glori felt a warm sensation behind him. He knew that Zoe wasn't gossiping, but was ready to keep up with him, and the flames that surrounded Zoe's magic gauntlet, like Glori's fiery heart, were enough to make the night shiver.

In the midst of the excitement, something came to Glori's mind: the magnates were vying for power when the kingdom needed it. Some of them drove the poor as lowly animals, and let the poor saddle their horses and become the stepping stones for them to step on the throne. So, Glori couldn't help but repeat what Bard wrote in The Ebel Era: "Stepping on the corpses of the poor, they thought they could sit on a land full of flowers." However, they do not think that there will come a day when the poor will straighten their backs and defend their dignity. ”

"However, what Lord Bud hoped for never came to pass. Moreover, King Velen has also passed away. Now, Vilon's loyal subordinates are either in exile or have lost their tracks. Glori, we can only do what we can. Zoe said.

"Yes, you're right. We don't have the ambition of Lord Bard or King Velon, but the courage to hope for a better tomorrow is something we all share. My friend, we have to cherish the present, even every step until dawn comes. Glori argued.

Glori didn't look back, just took a steady step forward. This step surprised Zoe, and she saw the change in Glori, and this calm step was the beginning, a proof of courage in the night.

One step, two steps...... Zoe followed Glori, riding two warhorses.

Walking through the woods, you can easily reach Mochizuki Castle. But there are always things that come up for no apparent reason, such as trees that have become hideous due to the influence of dark magic, that make way for orderly soldiers, that block the way of Terrans, and that even turn branches into hammers to smash Terrans at passers-by.

Glori and Zoe endure a bit of torture. The sharp branches pierced the mounts, pierced the cloaks, and scratched their cheeks.

Gloriy tugged at the reins, and the horse lifted its front hooves and stepped down.

"Hah, two humans!" the orderly soldier propped up his shield, pressed against the front hooves of his warhorse, and pushed forward.

"We still have to draw our swords, because this is their camp. I mean, if they surrender, maybe I'll give them a chance to leave. But I knew they all had blood on their hands, because they had familiar faces that I had ever seen. Some of the people I knew had died at his hands! Their attack on the Emerald City was as if it had just happened!" Zoe said angrily.

"If they kill, we'll have to draw our swords and fight!" Glori shouted. Stomping on the stirrups hard, Glori jumps in front of the horse. "Dragonfire!" Glori shouted. He slashed with his long sword, and swept again. As a result, three soldiers were knocked to the ground by the flames.

"Haha! They're pretty powerful, they think they're gods. We are all loyal subordinates of the Order King, let them relive the fragility of humanity!" said the leader of the Order Clan.

"Humanity is not forever cowardly. Everything we have does not fall from the sky. We have hope for the future and build our home with wisdom and hard work, which is proof of this. Glori said calmly.

"But you know one thing, too. You humans have provoked a war and deprived the Supreme King of his loved ones! Your prejudices are the trigger for this war. An orderly soldier said.

"And now? Everything now is caused by Kyle. Killing, not everything. Glori said.

"Oh, there is no point in arguing, only the result is the most convincing. Soon, your city will be reduced to ruins, right under our feet!" the leader's order viciously "mended".

"Glori, Carlos, get out of the way! I've got to clean up this leader with my own hands, because of the blood debt!" Zoe was furious. Glori noticed Zoe shaking her hands and saw flames surrounding Zoe.

"Lend me, God of Fire—the flame of punishment! Sin and evil burn out in the flames!" Zoe sang. In an instant, a ball of fire engulfed the leader. This group of orderly soldiers dropped their swords one after another.

"Wait! We recruits were just sent in, and we didn't do anything harmful. Dear Miss, please don't hurt us!" a young orderly soldier came out of the back of the line, pleading.

Zoe frowned, wanting to use a second fire spell to wipe out the entire squad of Orderly Soldiers. This team, the number of members is not large, although there are only about a dozen, but it is not a troublesome thing for Zoe.

"Wait, Zoe. Glori grabbed Zoe's hand and persuaded him.

"What are they waiting for? They're going to Mochizuki City, that's our city! What can they do? Help the old man take care of the crops? And then they'll pick up the fallen kids?" said Zoe in a breath.

"Not all orderlies are as evil as you think they are!" the soldier roared.

At this moment, Glori stared at the soldier's face. The divine power brewed on his sword was enough to knock the soldiers in front of him to the ground in the blink of an eye when they had bad thoughts.

"You can leave with your buddy. I didn't believe what you said, but if you lie or take the opportunity to swing your sword, then your leader will be your end. Glori warned.

"Thank you, Honorable Knight. The young orderly soldier said.

"Glori, Carlos, how can you do that? they're orderly! a bunch of demons!" Zoe said in disbelief.

Zoe has always considered Glori to be the most trustworthy person, a leader who is too good to comment on. And the bitter sadness in his eyes proves that he must have love and hope in his heart. Only people who are full of hope and love will seem so painful when they lose something important. Now, how could he do this to the orderly soldiers who had harmed his fellow citizens? He had let them go like this? What was the status of what he cherished?

Zoe couldn't help but wonder what she was seeing, "Glori, they are the enemy, and they will take our home!

"Zoe, bloodshed doesn't solve everything. You look at them closely, it's better to give hope than despair! we can't be like them, and it's not our job to make the blade bleed!" Glori explained.

"You're right, the Tree of Loyalty may not change, but the Tree of Iron Leaf that surrounds it may change!" Zoe said, pushing Glori away.

"Now, are you all going to walk away like this?" said Glori, disappointed.

"I can't understand you at all, I can't even trust you!" Zoe said disappointed. With that, Zoe mounted his horse and headed straight to the southwest, heading to Mochizuki City.

Looking at Zoe's back, Glori shouted, "Don't let hatred swallow up your sanity!" Then, retracting his gaze, Glori looked at the orderly soldiers who had left in a hurry, then at the burning Mochizuki City, and finally at the sword in his hand.

"This sword does not exist for hatred. Glori said sadly. But if you don't fight back, how can you defend the innocent under the sword of the Order soldiers?
