Of course, those knights who searched deep into Foggy Valley could not find any trace of Anne, because, while they were still wandering around in the deepest part of Foggy Valley, searching for those non-existent clues, Anne had already I have been teleported to another place, and after eating and drinking, I rejoined that stupid guy Gus and set up camp.
"That is to say..."
(⊙o⊙*)
"Uncle Gus!"
(^▽^)
"You didn't kill those guys, you just knocked over their formation and then escaped by grabbing this useless big sister?"
(ψ`▽′)o
Sitting by the bonfire, I looked at Gus who was roasting meat, and then at the female prisoner who was sitting under the tree with her hands and feet tied behind her back and sitting sluggishly. After roughly learning what happened, , Anne nodded and asked playfully.
"No!"
"I didn't run away!"
Everything else was fine, Gus probably didn't bother to explain, but the word 'escape' made him a little disgusted, so he had to speak up and refute Annie quickly.
Because Gus did not escape at that time. He really broke through the opponent's formation and successfully caught the opponent's general and left in a grand manner. The word "escape" has nothing to do with it!
"Is that so?"
()
Hearing this, Annie nodded to express her understanding.
"That……"
(ω)
"Idiot Uncle Gus, what are you going to do with her?"
(ψ`▽′)o
"Should she just cut off her head and roast it, or give it to someone else's little bear to eat?"
(^▽^)
Although she knew that the idiot Gus in front of her would definitely not choose to do that, Annie, who was extremely bored and wanted nothing to do, thought about it, and suddenly pretended to be cruel and evil and said that she would definitely be captured by that person. The voice he heard said quietly.
"..."
Of course Gus didn't answer Annie's question, which was definitely a joke, and he didn't even look up.
He just continued to sit by the campfire and grilled the pile of meat in his hand that was sizzling with oil and water but without any seasonings.
They all came from a lone and very hungry wild wolf. At that time, when Gus left the foggy valley to get rid of his pursuers and came here, the opponent followed the smell of blood and chased him all the way. He did not stay in Gus's house. The provocative figure around him grinned and seemed to want to eat meat to fill its belly, so Gus decisively satisfied it so that it no longer had to worry about hunger in the future.
"How about letting the little bear eat it?"
(ω)
"She looks like she has tender skin and tender flesh. If she is cleaned, she might be delicious?"
(`)
Anne wasn't upset when Gus didn't respond. She just looked at the man who was tied up hand and foot and leaning on the tree trunk. At the same time, he was trembling slightly and showing a look of fear, maybe because of what she said. The eldest sister captive teased.
(…)
(● ̄ ̄●)
(Tibbers said that it takes it seriously. If some bad little master really lets it out, it will definitely strip off the armor and clothes of the female leader within a second and then swallow them whole. No chewing, absolutely no chance for anyone to object or stop!)
"..."
Gus still ignored him.
Obviously, he was already familiar with Anne's temperament or some ideas of tormenting people and pranks, so he didn't take it too seriously and just continued to bake his dinner and made the piece a little smaller. He stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.
"!!"
"demon!"
Finally, Farnese, the leader of the Knights of the Holy Iron Rope, who was captured alive in front of the battle and brought all the way here with his hands and feet bound, couldn't help it anymore. He directly defeated his fear and cursed and threatened through gritted teeth:
"The King's Hall and my friends from the Knights of the Holy Iron Chain will never let you go!"
"伱, you guys..."
"What awaits villains like you will definitely be the most severe punishment at the stake!"
"I-I promise God!!!"
In this way, the female leader, who had been tormented by fear, hesitation, and someone's intimidation for a long time, and whose spirit had reached a certain upper limit, directly used the slightly trembling words and the stern tone to say something to Gus. A certain little girl demon who just said he was going to feed her to some kind of bear roared angrily.
"Eh?"
|ω`)
"Burning at the stake..."
(**;)
"Um……"
(`)
You know, Anne is also known as the 'Daughter of Fire'. If the other party wants to use flames to burn her, I'm afraid they really chose the wrong way.
But she was not talking nonsense. Even if the other party chopped down all the firewood on the entire planet and piled it under her feet every day to burn it until the planet became bare, they would not be able to do anything to her!
"Burning at fire may not be very effective. How about you, big sister, give me another one?"
(^▽^)
"for example……"
()
"How about stuffing people to death with delicious food?"
(゜▽^*)
So, although she might have disappointed the other party, Anne still smiled and said responsibly: The threat of being burned at the stake just now had no intimidating effect on her, Queen Anne.
on the contrary!
The suggestion she gave to the other party might be more intimidating. If the other party really placed countless delicious foods in front of her, maybe she would really be supported and worried about it for a long time. a period of time?
(…)
(● ̄ ̄●)
"you!!"
"??"
Hearing Anne's teasing words, the female leader Farnese, whose hands and feet were bound and filled with grief and anger, was about to continue saying something, but suddenly found that the black swordsman who was sitting opposite the bonfire suddenly He stood up and walked towards her in a few steps with an unfriendly expression.
"!!"
"E-Devil!"
"What do you want to do?"
"Go away!"
"leave me alone!!"
So, she no longer bothered to argue with Annie, but while looking at the bright dagger in Gus' hand, she tried to huddle up and wanted to retreat, and asked helplessly in that trembling voice.
"demon?"
"Jie!"
Staring at the prisoner's uncertain face under the firelight, Gus suddenly snorted in disdain and shook his head. Then he pointed the knife at Annie with a grin, indicating that the other party had used the wrong name.
"Look carefully!"
"She is the devil!"
Gus is a warrior. To be more precise, he is at best a sacrifice and chess piece who is being hunted by evil, played by demons and struggling to survive. He is not in any way with those monsters. of.
On the contrary, he is an existence that stands on the opposite side of the demons, and is pursuing and searching for the demons unswervingly. He vows to fight those existences until death, just like those evil ones have always been chasing and entangled and tortured. Same as him!
"??"
(.)
"You're talking nonsense!"
(`^)
"You are the devil!"
()
Hearing this, Annie glared back at Gus fiercely.
"but……"
乛乛
"Um……"
(ˇˇ)
"When eating meat, people always like to disembowel it, skin it, cramp it, bleed it, chop the head off, and then slowly roast it and eat it. From another perspective, they seem to be almost like demons!"
(=^▽^=)
While saying words that were so frightening that one would not pay for one's life, Anne also showed a cute smile, which frightened the prisoner huddled under the tree to subconsciously widen his eyes and hold his breath. They didn't even dare to take a breath.
“But it’s not okay if I don’t eat!”
(~)
"It's really nerve-wracking!"
ε=(ο`*)))Alas
Then, after crunching the analysis, Annie pretended to sigh, showing a troubled look.
What she was talking about was eating the meat of those big and small animals, not humans. After all, those animals were so delicious, and it was impossible for her not to eat them. Therefore, it might be reasonable for her to be called a devil by those animals. of?
Of course, she said that deliberately to intimidate the captive sister, and she had no intention of explaining it at all.
(…)
(● ̄ ̄●)
"!!"
"you!!"
At this time, the captive female leader Farnese was of course so frightened by Anne's words that her face turned pale, her eyes widened and her lips trembled, and she couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
because……
What Annie said naturally reminded her of the pile of corpses she encountered outside Foggy Valley before. At that time, she had never been able to figure out why the corpses were stripped clean, but now, she suddenly understood. And he couldn't help but feel waves of nausea and vomiting in his heart.
"..."
Walking up to him, Gus looked coldly at the woman who was so frightened that she huddled up and trembled after Anne's few words. Although he knew that the other party must have misunderstood something, he didn't bother to explain more. He just sneered and continued to hold on tightly. Holding his sharp dagger, he squatted in front of the opponent.
"!!"
Seeing another demon suddenly squatting in front of him with a dagger in his hand, and thinking about what a bad little girl just said, he felt that he might soon face some kind of tragic and terrifying end. Farnese's face instantly turned pale again.
"you……"
"What are you going to do?!"
Then, driven by fear, while asking in a trembling voice, a smell of filth finally began to fill the air.
"??"
Gus, who was getting closer, certainly smelled that familiar smell, but he didn't say anything. He just turned around expressionlessly and waved the dagger. Soon, a piece of charred but fragrant meat was removed from him. It was cut off from a shelf by the campfire and held with a knife to the prisoner's mouth.
"!!"
"I!"
"I will not eat!!"
"Get away!"
Seeing that the other party actually wanted to feed him, rather than being as ruthless as he imagined, Farnese felt ashamed and blushed, and continued to curl up his legs to try to hide something, feeling sad and angry. Turn your head away.
"Don't eat?"
Hearing this, Gus raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Jie!"
"You either eat it..."
"Either..."
"We're just going to eat you!?"
As he spoke, Gus made a move and reached directly into the opponent's arms, as if he wanted to rip off the flashy and lightweight silver plate armor on the opponent and then do something evil.
"!!"
Seeing this, Farnese made a decisive decision and suddenly opened his mouth and bit Gus's dagger.
"..."
Then, while taking the initiative to bite off the large piece of wolf meat and chewing it hard, she did not forget to look fiercely at Gus's single eye with her stubborn eyes.
"very good!"
"Prisoners must behave like prisoners, and obedience is a must!"
"otherwise……"
"I don't mind selling you to a brothel like that?"
Gus, who has grown up in a mercenary group with blades that lick blood since he was a child and has been in countless places, is certainly not the kind of kid who doesn't know anything. Therefore, he knows how to deal with such a eldest lady from a noble family. He nodded with satisfaction and threatened with a grin.
"..."
The next second, he saw that the female prisoner's face, which was originally full of anger and unyielding, suddenly had a look of fear and shock.
"whispering sound!"
However, Gus didn't pay much attention, and he had no intention of continuing to feed the prisoners. Instead, he walked to his original position and picked up another large skewer of wolf meat and started to eat it.
After all, for a prisoner or something, he only needs to eat a bite to avoid starving to death. He will not be stupid enough to feed the other party and then have the strength to resist or make himself uncomfortable, or have the strength to escape or something.
"..."
It didn't take long for the Farnese to recover, and while continuing to chew the piece of meat in her mouth viciously, she glared at Gus through the firelight with fierce and angry eyes.
"Why!"
(ψ`▽′)o
"Uncle Gus..."
|ω)
At this time, Annie spoke again, and moved toward the other party in a long and lewd tone.
"..."
"If you want to eat, take it yourself!"
Thinking that Annie wanted to beg for food, Gus didn't even raise his head. He said this coldly and continued to wolf down the food.
"Eat something?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"It's so dirty and you don't even put any salt in it, so people won't eat your crap!"
ε=(ˇεˇ))) Bah! !
Anne was startled for a moment, then hurriedly pouted and refuted.
"What I want to say!"
()
"There seem to be a lot of people outside slowly coming around. They seem to be the knights during the day. You may not be able to sleep again tonight!"
(^o^)
Then, Annie spoke openly and openly about her findings without trying to manipulate the other party or hiding it.
"..."
Sure enough, after hearing Annie's words, Gus stopped moving his hands and mouth, then subconsciously raised his head and stretched his neck to look around, and even listened to something.
But unfortunately, maybe those people were hiding very well, or maybe they were still far away, so he didn't see, hear or smell anything.
"!!"
At this time, the female captive Farnese, who had already swallowed the piece of meat and felt a touch of warmth in her body, straightened up and looked around the dark forest after hearing Anne's words.
"Is it Vice Captain Yasang and Serpico who are chasing us?"
"Aha!"
"Demons!"
"Let me tell you, you can't escape!!"
Immediately afterwards, although she didn't see or hear anything like Gus, she seemed to have gained the confidence and began to taunt Gus with a little arrogance.
"..."
Looking at the female captive in the flickering light of the campfire, and then at her wet crotch, Gus sneered and continued to eat his own food.
He didn't doubt what Anne just said. Since the other party said that it was the knights who were chasing him, it must be true.
But he is not worried!
You know, the leader of the other party is still in his hands and is up to him whether he lives or dies. What can those people do even if they surround him?
Since the other party did not dare to make up his mind to take action during the day and allowed him to carry the prisoner and leave grandly, now, if he surrounded him after he had eaten, drank, and rested enough, the odds of winning would undoubtedly become better. Low.
Therefore, Gus didn't mind too much. He just swallowed the last mouthful of wolf meat and wiped his mouth carelessly. Then he picked up a water bag and drank directly.
"call!!"
Then, after drinking all the water, he sighed and threw away the water bag.
"?!"
Sudden!
He didn't know why, but just as he was about to stretch and rest for a while, he reached out with a serious face and grasped the hilt of his dragon-slaying sword and stood up.
"!!"
"Are you scared?"
"Let me go!"
"hurry up!"
"Perhaps I can offer you a chance for leniency?"
"Hello!"
"Did you hear that?"
Seeing Gus's surprise, he thought that Gus was afraid of his subordinates who were quietly surrounding him, so the female leader and prisoner Farnese mustered up his courage again and became a little arrogant again. He shouted and ordered at Gus domineeringly.
"..."
Gus didn't pay attention to the stupid woman, and just looked around the dark surroundings indifferently.
because……
At this moment, the brand on the back of his neck was tingling faintly and bleeding, and no one knew better than him what that meant!
"Oh!"
(⊙o⊙*)
"Sure enough, here we are again. There is such a thing around here?"
(Д≡д)!?
"really!"
ε=(ο`*)))Alas
"Stupid Gus, you should sleep during the day instead. Maybe it would be better to travel at night?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
As the night around her became darker and darker, Annie of course knew why Gus suddenly stood up on guard, and then made a careless joke to the guy who was holding a sword on guard.
"??"
"Hello!"
"What are you two doing?!"
At this time, Farnese became angry when she received no response from the two of them. She struggled to stand up, yelled angrily, and wanted to shout loudly and summon her subordinates.
"Some fun stuff!"
(*^▽^*)
"Sister, don't you keep saying that people are devils? Next, you can take a closer look and see what exactly is a devil?"
(゜▽^*)
"sometimes……"
(ω)
"What you saw and thought may not be what you imagined at all!"
(-)
Anne didn't mean to explain to the other party, she just said two specious words to the other party vaguely and with a playful smile.
"??"
"you……"
at this time!
"!?"
Before Farnese could speak again, she was horrified to discover that in the dark and strange night surrounding her, the people slowly appearing in the dense forest were not her subordinates, but...
But those demons and monsters that are twisted and twisted like ghosts? !
What was even more frightening was that one of them slowly floated toward her, passed through the tree trunk she was originally leaning on, and at the same time opened its arms and hugged her face? !
"!!"
"Yeah!!!!!!"
The next second, she, who had never seen such a terrifying picture and terrifying scene that subverted her beliefs, screamed loudly.
"!!"
Uh-huh! !
Seeing this, the golden light on Gus' giant ship flashed, and then, with just one sword strike, he shattered the ghost that wanted to attack the prisoner.
"Watch carefully!"
"The devil in your mouth..."
"These are the devils you talk about!!!"
After saying that, without waiting for the other party to recover from the shock and say something else, Gus roared with a ferocious smile, resolutely rushed into the boundless darkness with one sword and one man, and began to fight with the undead and the wild wolves and wild boars that had transformed into The ferocious demons started fighting fiercely.
"..."
At this moment, the female prisoner Farnese who had just retorted was already frightened by the horrific scenes and existences beyond imagination that appeared around her. She just widened her eyes and shivered. On the ground beside the campfire, I couldn't say a word.
"..."
(ω)
As for the vision here and the battle between Gus and the devil, those members of the Knights of the Holy Iron Rope who were lurking in the distance and surrounding them obviously also saw it, so that the siege that was originally lurking in a good way suddenly became chaotic. , and some people even began to howl and make noises and fled from this dense forest.
However, it seems that some of those people are smart and courageous.
Anne saw it. How dare someone dare to run towards the bonfire where they were, risking the danger and suppressing the fear of the unknown at this time of low morale and chaos?
"All right!"
(~)
"that……"
()°
"Big sister, goodbye!"
ヾ(⌒⌒*)See You
After thinking about it for a while, Anne thought about it, and then greeted the frightened female captives towards the scene that still seemed to subvert common sense, and did not wait for those who were about to take the risk and rush here soon. When the knights' uncles arrived, they appeared and disappeared in an instant.
After all, Gus is only focused on fighting those demons and undead now, and he definitely doesn't care about the safety of the captives. And Annie herself obviously doesn't want to care about the captive sister who is so grown-up that she wets her pants. So, of course she left and gave the captives to those knight uncles.
"!!"
Soon, a fat but extremely strong Knight of the Holy Iron Cable, the vice-captain Yasang, rushed away several invisible evil spirits and led the people to the bonfire.
"Very good!"
"Farnese is indeed here!"
"quick!"
"Let's withdraw!!"
Then, without looking at the black swordsman who was fighting the undead demons not far away, he just leaned over and picked up Farnese, who was scared to death, and then turned around and ran away. Just run outside.
"hurry up!"
"Don't get entangled with those monsters, let's retreat!"
"Quickly retreat!!!"
Then, while running fast, he did not forget to angrily yell at the soldiers who were trying to fight the incoming undead, telling them not to meddle in their own business, and not to fight those invisible monsters.
Not long after, they successfully rescued the leader of their own knights and evacuated to a safe area outside. They quickly reunited the team, and then led the team away from the terrifying dense forest without thinking. Even the people who originally wanted to save people He also ignored the plan to arrest the black swordsman.
After all, they were a group of real demons, monsters they didn't understand and couldn't hurt!
Faced with an existence that has never been seen before and only appears in books and scriptures such as the Apocalypse, although they are known as the most elite Knights of the Holy Iron Cable in the King's Hall, if they are as terrifying as the devil, If they go to fight like black swordsmen, it will really be a bit difficult for them.
Because, that kind of weird miracle exists, even if it belongs to the King's Hall, even if it is the so-called holy army, they have absolutely no response or attack methods that have been practiced and proven to be effective!
So, at the moment, they really have no choice but to take their leader and run away and stay away from those existences.
"."
"kill!!"
"bring it on!"
"Kill them all!!"
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
"come!!!"
At this time, in the middle of the dense forest, the wanted persons who had been considered by the King's Hall to be demons or related to demons, that is, the black swordsman and the double-seal knight Gus, were recklessly fighting with those who kept moving towards them. The evil spirits, dead souls, demons and mutated creatures he rushed towards and attacked were fighting endlessly.
The sounds and angry roars made during fierce battles were clearly heard in this silent night by even the knights of the Holy Iron Rope Knights who were evacuating in a panic in the distance.
However, those knights who claimed to be righteous and holy had no intention of stopping. They just stepped on their horses and led their frightened captain away from that terrible place as quickly as possible.
