"Erica!"
(｀^)
"You're in trouble!"
o(*｀ー)o
When Shirji and Gus both landed smoothly and luckily did not fall to death on the spot, when Shirji was standing nervously next to her dragon that landed on its head, when she looked at a certain stupid uncle with worry. When using that clumsy technique and holy light to heal the huge dragon whose chest and abdomen were dripping with blood, Anne, who only focused on herself jumping on the dragon to escape at the critical moment, of course turned around and spoke to a certain person in a serious and serious manner. The instigator reprimanded loudly:
"How could you mess with that 'magic item'?"
(;｀O)o
"Just use it, don't use it until you see it clearly!"
(｀)/
"Look, look, Shirji's precious dragon has been beaten to a pulp by you. As a result, we may not be able to leave until at least tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."
(σ｀д′)σ
Anyway, Annie will definitely not admit that the toys she gave away long ago have anything to do with her, and she will not be responsible for anything that happened today.
Anyway!
This is all Erica's fault!
She said it was the other party's fault, but it wasn't the fault either. Her Lady Queen Anne had the final say on this matter!
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"Woo..."
"This, you can't blame me!"
"You may not know that various monsters often attack us during this period, and we managed to hold on here with great effort. We just saw this big guy flying down, and we thought it was the monster that came to attack us again. It’s a terrible thing, that’s why…”
"S-say it again!"
"You are hiding on its back and flying so high that we can't see you at all!"
After first shrinking her head and enduring some groundless accusations from Annie, Erica then gritted her teeth and stubbornly defended herself, saying that she really didn't mean it just now, she just wanted to fight off the incoming attacker. The monster was just there to protect everyone. Who would have thought that he would accidentally knock down one of his own?
Furthermore, the giant dragon is not dead yet. The other party has only had a layer of skin blown off, and was frightened by the successive explosions and fell down. It seems that the fall was a bit serious, but Gus Here, nothing big will happen for sure.
"in spite of!"
(へ╬)
"At that time, everyone came down and shouted to stop, but you still hit me. That's your fault!"
(ˇεˇ)
Annie continued to yell angrily, and when Erica turned her head and shrank her neck to look to the other side, she walked around and stood in front of her.
"alright."
"Annie, no more words."
"Fortunately, it's nothing serious. It's just a flesh injury and some shock. After Gus' treatment, he will be almost recovered by tomorrow at most."
"It's fine."
At this time, before Annie could continue, Shirji, her elves Ibarella and Gus finally finished the treatment and walked to the courtyard protected by sharp wooden stakes. He said with gentle words of comfort.
"Great, Gus, you're back!"
"Gus."
"Brother Gus!"
Seeing Gus come in and hearing Shirji say that the dragon was fine, Erica, whose face was full of apologies and shame, cheered with relief and went up to meet her with her adoptive fathers Gott and Rickett. Qi greeted Gus.
"Um."
"Are you all okay?"
"Casca is here too?"
"Very good!"
Gus nodded towards the three of them first, and then in a blink of an eye he found Casca hiding in the door frame of the house timidly observing them secretly. After seeing the other party's intact appearance, he couldn't help but relax. tone.
"fine."
"It's okay for now. Erica still has a lot of powerful weapons, so we can persevere."
"but……"
"I don't know why, but in the past month, those monsters have appeared during the day, and there are more and more types. Some of them are very scary, and some are even the kind of creatures that only exist in legends?"
"Then we saw that the goblin mine was useless, so we had to move Casca here. If you don't come back, we don't know how long we can hold on."
At this time, Rickett, who followed Gott forward, first stared at Gus's gorgeous outfit and light armor. After realizing that Gus was no longer the sloppy look in black clothes and black armor, he was heartbroken. He was slightly confused before he explained.
"Maybe the goblin mines can no longer conceal the aura of Cascaia's brand, right?"
"Now that you are back, and the two brands are together, I don't know what terrible things will appear."
As he spoke, Rickett smiled bitterly again.
During this period of time, they basically stayed here and resisted, never leaving. They had no idea what was going on in the outside world, and they didn't get any more information. Therefore, they took it for granted that those who had appeared this month were The monsters are all caused by Casca's brand.
"brand?"
Hearing this, Gus couldn't help but be slightly startled.
"No!"
"The brand is basically useless now."
"Those monsters..."
"They are not attracted by the brand."
After first staring at the traces of battle inside and outside the ferocious spiked railings and the rotting corpses of certain monsters for a while, Gus turned back, shook his head and sighed.
"ah?"
"Isn't it because of the branding?"
Rickett and Gott looked at each other. Rickett's face was full of doubts and disbelief, and he seemed to have difficulty understanding what Gus just said.
"It's the whole world that has changed."
"That is to say, the underworld and this world are integrated. The brand on our bodies and the breath of blood are no longer the only ones that can attract those monsters."
"But it would be better to let Shirji use magic to cover up Casca later. This will save some trouble."
As he said that, Gus couldn't help but glance at Casca in front of him again, who was hiding behind the door frame and looking at them.
We haven't seen each other for many days, and the other party is actually alienated from him again...
So much so that she refuses to come out when she sees him coming back. She just hides there and observes secretly. From the other party's expression and those ignorant and cowardly eyes, it is not difficult to guess that the other party's condition must not have improved at all. Then There is no doubt about it.
So, thinking of this, while his hatred for a certain guy became stronger, Gus couldn't help but sigh softly in his heart.
"??"
"Is the Nether World integrated with this world?"
"What is the Netherworld?"
"Were those monsters really attracted by Casca's brand?"
"Gus!"
"Tell me, what's going on? Do you know something?!"
First they looked at each other in surprise, and then Gott and Rickett gathered in front of Gus, and they couldn't wait for Gus to tell more information that they didn't know.
"yes!"
"Brother Gus!"
"Tell me, what's going on? Why are there so many monsters?"
"We have been so busy these days, we don't even know how many we have killed, but they still appear in a steady stream, and sometimes they fly across the sky in groups, which scares people to death!"
And Erica also came up and asked in a coquettish voice, hoping that Gus would tell something quickly.
"this……"
"cough!"
"It's a long story."
First, he looked at Annie and Shirji, and found that the two people didn't seem to want to explain such troublesome things to Gott, Rickett, and Erica. Instead, they all looked toward Cass on the other side of the house. After Jia walked over and greeted him warmly, Gus thought for a moment, then sat down on a wooden stake nearby and spoke patiently:
"Here's the thing..."
"then……"
"After we left here, we met that guy again in the south soon..."
"That bastard who calls himself 'Eagle of Light'!"
Just like that, Gus began to describe the things he had done and experienced during this period. For example, he met Griffith again and decided to form and prepare a legion of his own after knowing some of the other party's conspiracy. The matter was slowly relayed to the three of them.
Then, he also talked about the battle they witnessed outside the city of Wyndham, the capital of Mitlan, and the drastic changes in the world they witnessed. After that, he hurriedly returned to the City of Holy Light and began to herd troops, and then moved forward. In the past few days, he had killed an apostle sent by Griffith and categorically rejected the other party's shameful request. All these things were briefly explained to the three of them slowly.
"That's probably what happened."
"The world is not the same as it used to be."
"Whether it's Anne or Shirji, their kind of witches have been basically confirmed..."
"Various evidence has proven that Griffith, who calls himself the 'Eagle of Light', is the culprit who caused this world to become like this!"
"For his own selfish desires, he actually directly merged the ghost world with the real world, allowing monsters, warcraft and other creatures to appear in this world together, and then shamefully allowed those monsters to harm, drive away and kill countless people Ordinary people, forcing them to go to Wyndham, which is now Falconia, and then he can appear in front of those ignorant people with his identity and posture as a 'savior', so as to realize his goal To build a country of his own and become the leader of a country?"
"He is the source of all evil, and I will not forgive him!"
"Although it's not possible now, one day, I will crush his ambition and smash his dream built on the pain of others and his false city together!!"
Nearly half an hour later, Gus, who had basically finished explaining the situation, clenched his fists slightly and made a final summary. At the same time, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and made no effort to hide his feelings for the 'Light'. Eagle' Griffith's Hatred.
"!!"
"No way?!"
After hearing this, while Gott and Erica were stunned, Rickett was so shocked that he stood up and asked in a trembling voice, somewhat helpless:
"this……"
"Impossible, does he need to do that?"
"Is he crazy?!"
Rickett really couldn't believe that their leader, who was respected and loved by everyone in the Eagle Regiment, Griffith, who once had lofty ideals and ambitions, actually survived after sacrificing the entire Eagle Regiment. Not satisfied, he blatantly sacrificed the world and turned it into this, putting the lives of millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of people around the world in danger, and it is even possible that tens of millions of people were killed because of this, and What the other party only wants to achieve is the ridiculous ambition of becoming the master of a country?
Anyway!
Rickett couldn't imagine how crazy and twisted a person must be to do such a terrible thing, and finally have the nerve to disguise himself as a savior? !
"whispering sound!"
"I don't know whether he is crazy or not..."
"But I only know that from the moment he sacrificed the Eagles and from the moment he hurt Casca, he is no longer our Griffith, and he is no longer the leader we respect."
"But..."
Rather, he is a life-long enemy who will never stop fighting and wants to kill him quickly, the kind of sworn enemy!
Of course, he did not say the above sentence, and there is no need to say it again, because what he is doing now and what he will do in the future will confirm that sentence, so of course there is no need to repeat it again.
"Well……"
"If it's really what you said, it seems that we really can't stay here any longer."
At this time, Rickett, who was mentally shocked again, was about to say something. After scratching his messy beard, the blacksmith Gott on the side nodded and confirmed that the man Gus just said was coming to pick him up. The idea of a few of them leaving here.
"During this period..."
"Erica's weapons have been consumed a lot, but those monsters and monsters are still attacking day and night. We are almost overwhelmed and can no longer defend ourselves."
Thinking of those monsters that are emerging one after another, although Gaut is very reluctant to let go of this place where he has lived for a long time, but now that the world has changed, Gus even got a giant dragon and it is said that it has become the City of Holy Light. The lord has 20,000 soldiers under his command, so there is really no need for them to stay here anymore.
"Then we have to wait until tomorrow before leaving..."
"Brother Gus!"
"I really didn't mean it just now, I swear!"
"I will definitely not use that 'poison sting' magic to hit you next time!"
After listening to Gus' words, Erica, thinking that she had accidentally messed up the matter just now, of course bowed to Gus shyly and nervously and apologized.
"Erica, I don't blame you."
"alright."
"I'm going to check on Casca first. If there's any problem, we can talk about it when we have time."
As he said that, he heard the sound of Casca playing with a certain little girl in the house. Gus, who was already a little itchy, stopped talking and nodded towards the three of them before he couldn't wait to get up. He strode towards the Gaut family house, which seemed to be quite dilapidated.
"really?"
"Falconia?"
"Did Griffith really do something terrible like that?"
"It can not be?"
"Is he really crazy?"
"How could it become like this..."
At this time, Rickett was still sitting aside with a tangled and painful expression, biting his fingers with a gloomy face and thinking hard, not knowing what he was thinking about.
…
At the same time, Falconia was thousands of miles away.
'Eagle of Light' Griffith was having a meeting with his apostolic generals and noble generals with ugly expressions, and they were all listening to a messenger who had returned from delivering a letter explaining some more details besides the content of the letter. Much key information.
For example, the approximate military composition of the City of Holy Light, who the lords and main generals are, what kind of magical powers those so-called paladins have, etc.
Of course, it must be indispensable that the so-called "Eagle of Light" that the City of Holy Light is currently promoting to the outside world is actually the "Eagle of Darkness" and is also the culprit that turned the world into what it is now, and is the source of all evil. various statements and messages strongly recommending that people not travel to Falconia.
Boom! !
"Owner!"
At this time, after listening to the messenger's words and seeing the "serious" and guessing the "admonishment" that denounced the Eagle of Light, the "black lion", the lion-cow apostle, the "immortal leftist" De' finally couldn't help it any longer, slammed the table, stood up, and roared a loud invitation to fight at Griffith, who was sitting unmoved in the main seat:
"Let's not think so much, they have already declared war on us!"
"Why don't we just go to a mere 20,000 people?"
"Send me to go with the War Demon Soldiers. With only one charge at most, we can wipe them all out!"
"That guy Beludo can't die in vain!"
"Also, they arrested thousands of our people, so we can't just let it go!"
The angry Zuo De continued to smash the table and speak plausibly.
Speaking of which, the black swordsman Gus made him very embarrassed last time. He had hated the other party for a long time, but he never had the chance. Therefore, now that he has the opportunity to avenge his personal revenge, he is obviously not willing to miss it. .
"Commander Zuo De is right!"
"really!"
"Berudo is our great hero in Falconia. We must not just let it go. We must let those people sacrifice for us!"
"This revenge must be avenged!"
"That's right!"
"That black swordsman dares to spread rumors and slander the great Lord Griffith, so he must be punished by the divine!"
"Your Mightiness!"
"I agree to send troops, and we must teach them a lesson!"
"I agree!"
"Seconded!"
"me too!!"
"Sir, send out troops!"
"As for that group of heretics who believe in the so-called 'holy light', our Dharma King's Hall will never allow them to develop and grow in the northern border of Mitlan. Why not take this opportunity to eliminate them?"
"snort!"
"It is indeed time to eliminate them. There is nothing more appropriate than taking advantage of this opportunity to use these people to establish their authority!"
"well said!"
"How can you allow others to sleep soundly next to your bed?"
"The northern border is not far from Falconia, only a few hundred miles away. If they are allowed to develop, it will be a huge threat to the Falconia survival circle we are about to establish!"
"Indeed."
"You just heard that they have witches and dragons. They obviously have some weird means of capturing monsters for their own use. Don't be careless!"
"Your Mightiness!"
"Send troops!"
"yes!"
"Lord Griffith, let's send troops!!"
After Zuo De was the first to speak out angrily, the other war demon generals, apostles, French King's Hall generals, and the noble generals also loudly shouted, discussed, and clamored to send troops now in order to kill the one who dared to do this. At that time, the 'Holy Light Legion' and 'Holy Light City', which were in opposition to the powerful Falconia, were wiped out in time.
"..."
However, no matter how noisy and noisy those people were, Griffith remained unmoved and just sat silently in his seat without making a sound, not knowing what he was thinking.
for a long time……
When the war demon generals, apostles, French King's Hall generals, and noble generals who were present at the meeting gradually came to a stop, the 'Eagle of Light' Griffith, who was delicate in appearance and even more beautiful than a woman, finally calmed down. He slowly raised his eyelids and spoke:
"Everyone!"
"I can understand your feelings, and I agree with what you just said."
"but……"
"At present, our foundation is not yet stable. We have only occupied Falconia for more than a month, and everything has just started."
"In this unknown new world, if we make a wrong step, it will be an abyss of destruction for our career. We must pay attention to such things!"
"so……"
"Before many important matters such as gathering refugees, resuming production, expanding the army, and establishing the Falconian survival zone have been completed, it is not appropriate for us to use troops abroad!"
"At least, it's not appropriate to use troops on a large scale?"
In this way, the 'Eagle of Light' Griffith looked around at the people attending the meeting while talking unhurriedly, as if Gulen Belludo was killed in battle and the City of Holy Light spread rumors about him. 'And the matter of the thousands of soldiers being captured had nothing to do with him at all.
"this……"
"Aren't you going to send troops?"
"Well……"
"really!"
"There are so many things going on right now, it's really not the right time."
"But you can't just do nothing, right?"
"well!"
"No matter what, we firmly support Lord Griffith's opinion!"
"..."
Hearing what Griffith, who was sitting on the main seat, said, those generals of the war demon soldiers, apostles, generals of the French King's Hall, and those noble generals were a little shocked and puzzled, but in the end, they still had to They all expressed their willingness to accept any order from their noble lord.
"!!"
"Is it not easy to use troops on a large scale?"
"That……"
"Master, what do you mean..."
"We can attack those guys on a small scale?"
Unlike the disappointed and frustrated expressions of other participants, Zuo De seemed to hear some different information, so he hurriedly asked cautiously.
"..."
It's a pity that Griffith didn't want to answer. He just glanced meaningfully at the smart Zuo De.
