Two days later, when Leon, the leader of the Empire's Blue Dragon Knights, and his adjutant Liat led thousands of soldiers of the Empire's Blue Dragon Knights through the village, the first thing they saw was, They were the villagers whose hands were tied and hung from the big tree at the entrance of the village.
Although there didn't appear to be any injuries on those people's bodies, they kept moaning and groaning for some unknown reason, obviously suffering a lot of pain.
"whispering sound!"
"Liat, tell me..."
"How is this going?"
Zhu Ma watched for a while. Leon did not pay attention to the pleadings of the people hanging on the tree. Instead, he turned around and asked his adjutant with interest.
"have no idea……"
"But the battle mage in our legion said that there was a trace of a monster's presence near the cemetery. Could it be the monster's doing?"
"But if it was done by a monster, it would usually not be left alive..."
Liat began to make random guesses, and he was a little unclear.
"Well?"
"look!"
"Barter and the others are back, we will find out soon."
At this time, Leon looked up and saw an officer walking quickly out of the village with someone.
"Report!"
"Commander of the Leon Army!"
"The investigation has been clear. What happened is this..."
The legion captain Bart, who hurriedly came out of the village with a few soldiers, didn't say much. He directly explained that a few days ago, a 'half-demon' named Sonia led an attack on the village, and was then killed by a powerful little mage. They were defeated, and then, for some reason, the little mage allowed the half-demon Sonia to retaliate against these villagers, hang them on trees, and said that they had to be starved for three days before they could be put down. come out.
"Well?"
"Little mage?"
For some reason, Leon suddenly recalled a familiar figure, but he didn't think much about it and just continued to ask curiously:
"That half-demon, why did she attack the village and only torture these people?"
"Did you ask?"
Marching was a bit boring, so Leon couldn't help but gossip.
"have!"
"It is said that it is because the half-demon named Sonia was bullied and abused by these people?"
"These are the ones hanging from the trees!"
Captain Bart did not hide anything, and continued to tell a little bit about what he learned after questioning about the poor brother and sister who struggled to survive in the village, and finally were mistreated and separated after their adoptive father died of illness.
"snort!"
"So that's it, then these guys are not good people and deserve to be hanged!"
"That mage, he didn't let the half-demon vent his anger on others. He just punished these culprits. Is that appropriate?"
Lieutenant Liat, who was also riding a horse beside him, spoke.
Looking at his indignant look, he seemed to sympathize with the tragic experience of the 'half-demon' brother and sister and feel very unhappy about the bullying behavior of the people who were being hung?
"alright."
"Liat, now that the monsters here have been suppressed, it's time for us to set off. Business is more important!"
"By the way, let's put them down. If we hang them down again, their hands will become useless."
After knowing the whole story and hearing that the monsters here had been successfully suppressed, Leon looked at the soldiers who had finished resting behind him and did not intend to stay any longer. He directly gave orders to his adjutant Liat and turned his horse's head. Get ready to leave.
"ah?"
"Put them down?"
"this……"
"yes!"
"My subordinate understands!"
Although Liat was unwilling, he just looked at the resolute back of the Leon Army Commander hesitantly, and did not dare to ask any more questions. He had to pull out the long sword from his waist with some annoyance, and then slashed with sword energy. He came out and cut off the ropes hanging those people, causing the wailing unlucky ones to fall to the ground one after another.
"Attention everyone!"
"Line up!"
"keep going!"
Then, without even looking at the guys rolling on the ground, he waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Blue Dragon Knights quickly lined up in a long line, and then set off in neat rows with bows and horses, and quickly walked quickly left this village.
…
And when the Blue Dragon Knights and their leader, Leon, the strongest knight on the continent, had just left, a certain bad little girl arcane archmage had already brought her three newly hired mercenaries and a new The subdued half-demon, that is, the dark-skinned girl with pointed ears, Sonia, walked on the road to the ruins of the capital of the ancient Kingdom of Bardia.
At this time, they were slowly and staggeringly moving forward.
In order to make the journey easier, Grenier and Matthew also rented a carriage, so Anne, Almeida and Sonia naturally sat in the carriage, and they could only sit in front of them honestly. Acting as a coolie in the 'driver's seat'.
"..."
In the carriage, Sonia, who somehow insisted on following her for some reason, once again looked at Annie, who was holding the shrunken furry bear and taking a nap.
From the day she set out until now, she had looked at him several times and opened her mouth several times to ask something, but in the end she stopped in confusion.
"??"
"Sonia, is there anything you want to say to Anne?"
Finally, Almeda, who had not felt any sleep all this time, noticed it and felt a little strange. She smiled and asked softly to Sonia, who was hesitating to speak.
During these two days of getting along, she had already learned about Sonia's tragic childhood experience. She also knew that Sonia had been bullied by the ignorant villagers since she was a child, and that her brother and sister were separated. She only had various bad memories of that village. ...So, naturally, even though she is a believer of the Goddess of Light, Almeda is full of pity for Sonia and doesn't mind getting close to the one in front of her who has half-human and half-demon blood and is also a human being. A girl of the same age with dark powers.
"talk?"
(???.???)????
"What words?"
(?Д?≡?д?)!?
The dazed Annie was also awakened, and then she looked around curiously, looking at Sonia who was huddled in the corner, hugging her knees, and didn't know what she was thinking.

"..."
However, Sonia did not rush to answer.
She just slowly raised her head and looked at Anne with a frown, and when she found that Anne was also looking at her curiously...
After a long time, she finally mustered up the courage and asked:
"I thought about it all the way..."
"But, I can't figure it out, who are you?"
"besides!"
"Why do you have...that kind of powerful power?!"
You know, at that time, Sonia faced the darkest side of Anne. Although what was exposed to her was probably just the tip of the iceberg, it was enough to make her give up all will to resist then and now.
And this was exactly why she insisted on following him through some strange combination of circumstances afterwards.
"Huh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Didn't people already say that?"
(°ー°〃)
Anne was a little confused and didn't know why the other party asked again.
"oops!"
"Sonia, you don't have to ask Annie this question, because I know it too!"
"Now, let me tell you again generously!"
"Annie..."
“She is actually a most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most most The most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most powerful arcane mage!”
Anyway, during this period of time, everyone has become very familiar with each other, and they get along quite harmoniously on weekdays, so Almeda suppressed her smile and imitated the bad little girl from back then. The tone in which he introduced himself was repeated loudly and playfully in the carriage.
"!!"
!(?o?;)
"Sister Almeda, shut up!"
?(?﹏?,)?
Hearing the other party's weird tone teasing her, Annie, who was a little angry, naturally refused to obey, so she fiercely pounced on the other party, planning to reach out and tear the other party's bad mouth. .
Of course, Queen Anne herself is indeed such a most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most... most powerful arcane mage. However, the other party said it in such a sinister tone. Can't!
(…)
(● ̄? ̄●)
"!!"
"Alas!"
"Annie, stop it!"
"??"
"Ti-Tibbers! What are you doing? Let me go!"
"don't want!!"
"Yeah~?"
"Help, help!!"
Soon, in front of Sonia, the two began to roll, struggle and play in the carriage.
Benedict! Benedict!
Benedict! Benedict! Benedict!
"Hello!"
"You guys should take a rest and be careful, you don't want to overturn the car!"
"well……"
"Okay, Grenier, don't worry about them. It'll be just right if it turns over. Why don't we all just get out of the car and go on our way?"
Then, with several crisp knocks on the door and dissatisfied complaints from Matthew and Grenier coming from the driver's seat outside the carriage, the fun in the carriage gradually subsided.
Then, Anne reluctantly let go of Miss Almeda, who was being held down in the carriage by Tibbers, who had grown to be about the same size as them, and was about to spank her with her pants down.
"snort!"
o(′^`)o
"Let's see if you still dare to tease others in the future?"
(??へ??╬)
Snapped! !
With the help of the little bear as an accomplice, Annie first gave Miss Almeda a hard slap on the big buttocks of the girl who almost screamed just now, and then she sat aside angrily with some unfinished thoughts.
"..."
Almeda, who was not embarrassed in front of Sonia at least, did not dare to speak. She just blushed and glared back unconvinced. Then, she hurriedly covered her butt and distanced herself from the troubled little girl and the other party. That nasty furry bear is further away.
Although the opponent didn't use magic, the bear's power was too great. If one fought two, she was no match for her.
"correct!"
o(′▽`)o
"Sister Sonia, what did you want to ask just now?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
After the fun, Annie finally remembered something that had just happened, and turned her head curiously to the dumbfounded little girl with pointed ears who was huddled in the corner and asked.
At the same time, Annie's eyes unconsciously looked towards the other person's lower body.
Because, she suddenly thought that the other party's skin was dark, and looked very firm and elastic. She wondered if the feel of the fight would be a little different from Miss Almeda's?
"I……"
"I just don't understand why you have that terrible... um, dark power?"
After hesitating for a while, Sonia finally summoned up the courage to ask.
However, she did not dare to compare the power of the prince of darkness she knew. After all, there were followers of the goddess of light, Almeda, here, and she did not dare to say more.
"Eh?"
(???.???)????
"Dark power?"
(⊙_⊙)?
Anne blinked, then began to think.
"Aha!"
(∩▽∩)
"In fact, they can not only use the power of darkness, but they can also use the power of holy light, fire, frost, arcane, nature or chaos, etc.!"
?*. ?(ˊωˋ*)??*.
It turned out that the other party was still struggling with such trivial matters, so Anne suddenly stretched out her hands.
Then, the two people in the carriage were shocked to see: in her hands, magic energy pellets representing different powers, with different attributes and colors soon appeared. People were dumbfounded.
"Okay, so awesome!"
"Annie!"
"I discovered that this holy light of yours seems to be similar to the healing power of the Goddess of Light that I use!"
At this time, Almeda no longer cared about protecting her rear buttocks and crawled over in surprise and watched the excitement with Sonia.
"But……"
"Why can you still order the undead I summoned?"
After staring at the different energy balls for a while, Sonia still asked with some worry.
She had always believed that Anne might be some kind of high-ranking being in the dark power, even more powerful than her dark prince Bozanlu. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to possess the kind of power she had never seen or heard of before. The powerful dark power, and it is even more impossible to directly order the undead souls she summoned using the dark power.
"Eh?"
く(^_?)ゝ
"It seems that there were no orders at that time..."
(′?_?`)
"ah!"
(ノ′▽`)
"Now that I think about it, that wasn't an order, I just scared them back!"
(????-)?
Anne didn't hide anything, telling her that she was too lazy to set fire to the glass, and then just used a trick to scare the boring undead, so that they would crawl back into their own graves.
After all, no matter it is an undead creature or any other creature, as long as it still has a certain degree of autonomy, it must have the instinct of fear, and under the suppression of her absolute power, a simple fear spell can It wouldn't be difficult to make them act according to her wishes.
"..."
"is that so?"
She opened her mouth, but in the end, Sonia frowned and lowered her head, and said no more.
However, it could be seen that she did not fully believe Anne's statement, but what she was thinking was temporarily unknown.
"Hello!"
"Annie!"
"When we go to the ancient ruins and the city of Bardia this time, can we really find the holy sword Langulisa you mentioned?"
Seeing that Sonia stopped speaking, Almeida felt that the atmosphere in the carriage was a bit dull and awkward, so she quickly found another topic and asked.
"Um……"
(′???`)
"If you go early, it should be no problem."
(*^▽^*)
“But, if you go late, that’s not necessarily the case!”
(?ω?)
Anne knew that Alvin and Hain's group must also be on their way. However, there were only five of them in their group, and they took a carriage the whole way, while Alvin and the others were on their way in a mighty way. Hundreds of thousands of people set off, and as long as they don't waste too much time on the road, they can definitely beat them by at least a few days.
"Is that so?"
"Well!"
After listening to Annie's answer, Almeda thought for a moment, then quickly gave a high-five, as if she had made a certain decision.
Then, she opened the small window at the front of the carriage and shouted loudly to Matthew and Grenier, who were driving the carriage outside:
"Hello!"
"Matthew! And Grenier!"
"Hurry up and drive, we have to hurry up to find the Holy Sword!"
If ordinary people were talking about the Holy Sword, Almeida might not really believe it.
However, if it was said by the super powerful little girl Archmage in front of her, then she still planned to believe it for the time being, even if they had been to the ancient city of Bardia before and there was indeed nothing in it.
"Where is the holy sword?"
"Okay, okay!"
"As long as you don't mess around in the car, as long as you don't overturn the car, we can definitely go faster."
Grenier, who was driving a carriage in front, waved his hand impatiently.
Then, taking advantage of the opportunity to open the window, he did not forget to glance at Sonia in the car several times, and his eyes almost went straight.
"!!"
"What are you looking at?!"
"Haven't you ever seen a girl?"
Unfortunately, Almeida glared at him fiercely, and then closed the small window on the carriage with a bang.
"See what's going on?"
"Look at the indispensable piece of meat..."
"cut!"
"I'll watch it tonight!"
After smacking his lips and muttering a few words in the direction of the carriage angrily, Grenier looked back at the road in front of the carriage with some unfinished thoughts.
