If it was a year ago, the other party would probably be winking at the blind man, but coincidentally, during the half-day trip, Lan Xing and the others passed through several cities, and they also heard stories about Nia and Baihu from passers-by during the break. Discussion, so I also guessed what the other party meant————— War of Asian Humans.
Although the Kingdom of Lugnica seemed to be peaceful at this time, it was actually in flames of war decades ago, and this war was the so-called ‘subhuman war’.
And the hero who ended this war was none other than the sword master of the previous kingdom, ‘Theresia Van Astrea’.
That’s right, it was the wife of ‘Wilhelm’ who was staying in Roswaal’s mansion at this time.
Not only that, but the village where Rem and Ram used to live in seclusion with their families also chose to hide from the world because of the ‘subhuman war’.
It can be said that the impact of this war is greater than expected, and even the aftermath has continued to the present. Even though some demihumans have been integrated into the kingdom, there are still some nobles who hate demihumans. Most of them Some relatives died in the demi-human war.
Roswaal’s attitude towards this is naturally indifferent. After all, whether it is the current noble status or anything else, it is to resurrect the “Witch of Lust Echidna” that he admires. He doesn’t care about demihumans at all. Just don’t interfere with your own plans.
But I have to say that this time as an excuse is the best.
Even Blue Star couldn’t fault it. After all, the nobles with real power in Bianjing had the duty to defend the country, and they also had powers far beyond ordinary nobles. Not only did they have a certain right to recruit soldiers, they also had It has a certain degree of autonomy.
It can even be said that it is understandable for him to refuse demihumans to enter his territory in order to protect the kingdom’s military deployment.
Coupled with the other party’s attitude of “even if you hate the demihumans, you will still personally persuade them to return”, from a certain point of view, it even flatters those who have nothing to do with it.
But what the other party didn’t know was that the more he was like this, the more suspicious Blue Star was.
Does the other party really hate demihumans that much?
So——
“Of course, but can the Earl of Mazas ask you to answer a doubt in my heart?”
Although Blue Star doesn’t like red tape, he is a person from the modern society anyway, and he still understands basic social rhetoric, not to mention that when he gets along with Jonathan, the other party will occasionally educate him about some noble rules. Although Roswaal couldn’t understand the etiquette presented by Lan Xing, he only regarded it as a unique custom in a foreign country or within the ghost clan.
For Blue Star’s choice, he gave a corresponding reward.
“If I could answer.”
“Then why do you, the Earl of Mazas, who hates demi-humans, accept a ghost girl as a disciple?”
As Lan Xing’s voice fell, the originally friendly atmosphere between the two came to an abrupt end.
Even Eve, who couldn’t understand the confrontation between adults’ words at all, felt the change in Roswaal in front of her.
And Roswaal also confirmed that Blue Star knew about the existence of Ram and Rem, and that the opponent’s target was them.
Now it seems that I may not be able to let the other party leave easily…
Chapter 60 Let your bells and whistles hit the ‘soft spot’ with one blow
If the atmosphere was tense just now, then with Lan Xing’s rhetorical question, the atmosphere at the scene could be said to be on the verge of breaking out.
How should it be solved?
Do you want to do it?
Roswaal immediately put this option behind.
Roswaal, who has lived for 500 years, has been reincarnated with the help of offspring of similar blood through special magic. Is it strong?
There is no doubt about the answer, maybe part of the magic power will be lost after reincarnation, but the power of a magician is not just magic power but knowledge!
If you look at it this way, Roswaal didn’t lose the most important thing in his reincarnation.
So does his 500-year plan rely solely on violence?
The answer is undoubtedly no.
After all, even with the “magic’s protection”, the knowledge accumulated over 500 years and a part of magic power, he still dare not say that he is the strongest existence in the kingdom.
Whether it is the “protection of the sword master” passed down from generation to generation by the Astrea family, or the existence of a legendary life like Wilhelm, in the final analysis, Roswaal is just lucky The favor of the lust witch has acquired magical abilities.
So he is very self-aware but has been silently carrying out his own plan.
For him, as long as he can hold on, it is a victory!
As long as it lasts until the lust witch is resurrected, that’s enough!
So even if the atmosphere with Blue Star had become tense at this time, he still didn’t make a move. After all, if he did, it might affect Rem and Ram, and even if the possibility was only one in ten thousand, he didn’t want to take the risk. .
So he chose another advantage of his own — speaking skills!
Having served so many generations of kings as a nobleman, Roswaal made the most correct choice in his opinion.
“It seems that you have already found out? That’s right, I don’t want you to meet Ram and the others! What I said before is not all an excuse, because the relationship between humans and ghosts is not the same because of the ‘sub-human war’. It’s friendly, even I can only protect Ram and her younger sister Rem, I don’t want unstable factors to appear around her, if you really care about Ram and Rem—then Please leave with your companions!”
Compared with Lan Xing’s strong body, Roswaal looked much thinner, but at this time, he was standing sideways with one hand on his hip, looking up at Lan Xing’s eyes, as if he was a disciple who was trying to protect himself from fear. The warriors of strong enemies are average.
A few simple words changed the atmosphere of the scene suddenly.
If it was just a simple confrontation before, then Roswaal’s words now completely occupy the commanding heights of morality.
The other party admitted and explained that not all what he said before were lies, and then put on the cloak of ‘everything is for the good of Rem and Ram’, and finally used Blue Star’s attack on Rem and Ram Concerned about taking advantage of strength to fight back.
It can be said that in just a few words, Roswaal’s words have been honed through hundreds of years of open and secret battles with countless nobles.
There is a look of ‘If you object, you don’t care about Ram and Rem’.
The opponent’s words were undoubtedly successful, which can be seen from the expressions of Tiayou, Eve, and Nia behind Lan Xing.
Facing the opponent’s offensive, how did Blue Star respond?
“You…are you the one who attacked me a year ago?”
Lan Xing’s words made the atmosphere of the scene suffocated, and Niya even unconsciously moved to Baihu’s side, ready to take off the two wheels beside him at any time.
At the same time, Lan Xing’s words made Roswaal, who had a face of righteousness, stop suddenly, but his excellent self-cultivation made him not show any abnormalities.
“What do you mean? I don’t know you at all, why did I attack you? Or are you just talking nonsense?”
Roswaal’s words were true, he didn’t get any useful clues other than learning Blue Star’s name and the weapon he was good at from Ram and Rem. Later, in order to eliminate the unstable factor of Blue Star, he even Use your own network to keep inquiring about a ghost named ‘Blue Star’.
What he didn’t know was that although the name was good, Lan Xing was not a ghost at all, nor was he from this world.
The final result was that all the efforts of the opponent were in vain.
And Blue Star didn’t give in to the opponent’s pressing every step of the way.
“I don’t know why you attacked me, but my instinct tells me that you are the one who attacked me!”
Lan Xing planned to take Ram and Rem back to his office, but he didn’t plan to let them stay by his side all the time, so even if Ram really recognized Roswaal as his teacher, it didn’t matter, but The attitude of the other party not allowing them to meet even once is undoubtedly very suspicious.
But at first Blue Star was only suspicious, but what Roswaal didn’t know was that when he tried to use words to make Blue Star back down righteously, the sense of oppression actually made Blue Star find a sense of familiarity.
As a hunter himself, he is very good at detecting breath. After all, if he is not good at these things in the wild, let alone hunting monsters, he may become a prey himself.
At the same time, the ability to dodge when facing attacks given by “Dash” also makes him very sensitive to hostility.
The superposition of the two phases, plus that escape was the most embarrassing time since his debut, and he has never forgotten the aura of that mysterious magician until now.
Coupled with the identity of the opponent’s powerful magician…
The result of a combination of various factors was that he came to the conclusion that Fang Fang was the mysterious assailant.
As the saying goes, regardless of your flashy operations, Blue Star directly aimed at the opponent’s ‘weakness’ and was ruthless.
Unsurprisingly, what he said made Roswaal’s heart sink suddenly.
He thought he didn’t leave any clues that time, so how did the other party find him?
intuition?
These guys with swords are more unreasonable than one another! !
In Roswaal’s view, if the power of magicians comes from knowledge and magic power, they rely on magic power to display knowledge and cast powerful magic;
The strength of a warrior comes from faith and a strong body, relying on faith to support a strong body to perform terrifying swordsmanship.
Over the past few hundred years, he has also encountered similarly powerful knights, and they also have terrifying intuitions in certain aspects.
‘Tsk, a group of muscular beasts who don’t know how to think and only know how to rely on intuition! ‘
Although Roswaal cursed secretly in his heart, what he had to admit was that he was indeed in huge trouble right now.
Continue to deny it?
It’s useless.
Through Lan Xing’s eyes, he knew that there was no point in denying it, and the other party would definitely follow this clue to investigate.
Although he couldn’t be sure that the clues found by the other party would overturn the situation he had set up, but—he didn’t want even the slightest accident to happen.
Roswaal’s eyes gradually turned cold…
Chapter 61 Nobody can stop me!
The relationship between Blue Star and Roswaal once again fell into a strange dead silence, but this time the difference from before was that both sides were ready.
Roswaal already knew that the situation was on the verge of getting out of control, and Blue Star had been preparing for nearly a year just for today, so he naturally didn’t plan to back down. They gestured for them to get ready.
Sure enough, when Roswaal suddenly showed a weird smile on his serious face, Lan Xing felt a sense of crisis coming from his side.
“Stop off!!”
Accompanied by Lan Xing’s low voice, everyone responded at the same time.
Yao lifted the cloak that concealed his figure and hugged Tiyayou directly. He jumped back and instantly escaped from the attack range of the flames. As for Nia who was staying beside the other party, and the white tiger carrying Eve also retreated.
While dodging, they even assumed an attacking posture by coincidence.
“White Tiger!!”
“Yao!!”
Accompanied by the low voices of the two, the white tiger directly bit the two wheels above the forelegs and threw it towards Nia, while Ti Yayou was the ‘ether cannon’ handed over by Yao in the same result.
After the two weapons fell into the hands of their blade masters, they shone with dazzling light as if they had gained life.
As for Eve on the other side, she was still sitting on the white tiger, and she seemed to be planning to be a ‘Tiger Rider’.
It’s just that the three parties chose to withdraw from the main battlefield temporarily, obviously only intending to provide assistance, while the opposite was Blue Star who decisively charged at the moment the flames erupted.
The instant burst of flames even made Lan Xing feel a lick of heat, but he didn’t hesitate at all. His hands that were originally placed by his sides decisively clasped the double knives at his waist and made a backhand dash forward.
Different from the sharpness of ordinary double knives, the raw material of the “stone double knives” is the cornerstone of the temple. Even if it is made into a double knives, it still gives people a heavy feeling. The matte blade does not have a common knife. Instead, there was a screaming sound.
“Ding!!”
With the ear-piercing sound of collision, the two knives collided with the crystal-like protective wall. At this time, Roswaal changed his false smile before, and his expression was extremely ferocious.
“Are you still planning to hide your identity? Onimusha?”
Seeing Roswaal’s pale face so close at hand, Lan Xing wished to smash all the powder on his face with a punch, but it was a pity that a simple slash couldn’t break through the opponent’s defense at all.
But at the same time, the other party’s words also proved Blue Star’s guess from the side. The other party was indeed the attacker from a year ago. One night, and according to the requirements of the system to grant titles, only people with a certain status or strength in a certain world can give him the title. The effect of this type of title is equivalent to the title recognized by the world for him.
For example, the title of ‘Hunter’ given to him by Hestia and the gods after discussions; another example is the increasingly outrageous title of ‘Humanity’s Strongest Expulsion Control’, which is passed on by countless gendarmerie members.
These two titles belong to the titles given to him by others, and the third title besides that is ‘Onimusha’.
Blue Star didn’t know the identity of the person who gave him the title, but according to the system’s prompt, it should be the person who attacked him that night, but Roswaal knew that this title should not be known by many people, which undoubtedly proved it from the side his guess.
“It’s really you!!”
“That’s right, it’s me~”
At this time, Roswaal finally no longer denied it. After all, the two sides had already made a move, and he had already decided to deal with Blue Star here. He didn’t mind admitting such an innocuous matter.
But he communicated with Lan Xing not because he had nothing to do, but because of————
“boom!!!”
The dazzling red halo erupted under Lan Xing’s feet again.
It is obvious that the other party is using words to attract Lan Xing’s attention to activate magic.
Unlike ordinary magicians who need to perform self-suggestion to manipulate Mana by chanting spells, releasing magic has long been an instinct for Roswaal who has survived for 500 years, and casting spells without spells will not reduce the power of magic much , in this case the suddenness of magic can deal a fatal blow to ordinary enemies.
It was by relying on this ability to cast spells different from traditional magicians that he was able to ascend to the top of the kingdom’s magicians, and it was even said that one person was enough to counter the existence of an army.
After all, even the magic that Roswaal is going to use is not able to counter and protect against any enemy.
But he obviously underestimated Blue Star.
‘flash’
This is due to the fact that Roswaal gave Blue Star the ability of ‘Onimusha’ to show its true power at this moment. Almost at the same time as the flame erupted, the ‘Onimonization’ was activated, and the bright red hunting soul power also Then covering the body of the blue star endowed the blue star with a stronger explosive force.
