The self-cultivation of the passer-by hero

In a roaring sound, the knights of the church left Scarlet's castle and flew towards the town.

On the way, the accompanying retinue couldn't help but ask the knight: "Sir, don't you intend not to hold Scarlet accountable?"

"Our creed is consequentialism," a dull response came from under the heavy iron helmet: "There are no demons in Scarlet Castle. Unlike what we originally imagined, they are still members of the human camp, so, It has nothing to do with our goals this time.”

The knight's words silenced the servant, but another knight then spoke: "Gale, do you believe what the butler said?"

"The details may be hidden, but they are harmless." Gale, the leading church knight, replied in a deep voice.

He recalled what the young man said not long ago after he got the magic book——

"One day, a man came to Scarlet's castle with this book, claiming to be the messenger of the witch. He showed us the power of the book. The Earl believed that this power could lead Scarlet to the top. Unexpectedly, it attracted the devil."

There were many loopholes in the young man's words upon careful consideration, but Gale did not consider those dirty noble transactions for the time being. He only grasped the connection between the witch and the devil.

Even if Scarlet really hides something, the witch's messenger and the magic book are in their hands. As long as the comatose man wakes up, or they unlock the restrictions on the book, everything will be revealed.

However, no evidence of direct collusion between Scarlet and the devil was found, so they could not attack a nobleman for no reason.

The top priority was to eliminate the witch first. Being able to summon such a powerful demon would definitely not allow her to survive.

Gale calmed down and waved the riding crop in his hand to speed up the journey: "Everyone, hurry up, don't let the witch escape."

"yes!"

Through the window of the study, the maid watched the knights retreating and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Draga, is this really okay?" Gloria, who had put on her maid uniform again, asked worriedly. She was pretending to be the young lady just now.

The boy used the man in the basement and the magic book, and finally added her, a real human being, to successfully deceive the church's censorship.

In Gloria's eyes, this was just a dangerous performance, but what the boy actually did was more than that.

The church knight must have the ability to detect lies, so the boy just told the "truth", but made a slight adjustment in the chronological order.

In addition, he deliberately added complex restrictions to the magic book that originally only had a simple hypnotic effect, in order to confuse the knight's eyes.

But the most important thing is that he quietly hypnotized Knight Gale during the brief confrontation.

"It's really good luck to be in Europa this time. No matter how powerful the knight is, the gap in knowledge cannot be bridged. He cannot be prepared for the magic of the Far East that he has never seen before."

In Gloria's surprised eyes, in the young man's empty right hand, an eyeball wrapped with thin threads floated quietly on it, looming like a dream bubble, and disappeared after a while.

"The first time I used Miss Jue's power, it turned out to be too reluctant. I'm afraid the effect will only last for about a day." The young man muttered to himself, his eyes falling on the dust left by the horse's hooves outside the castle, which seemed a bit heavy.

"Gloria." The boy called the maid's name.

"What are your orders, Mr. Draga?" The maid came forward obediently.

After taking a deep breath, the young man turned around and left the maid with his back: "Go pack up and take the necessary luggage. It's time for us to leave."

"I understand." After Gloria responded, the boy had just left the study, and Remilia walked out of the cubicle: "Miss."

The most dangerous place is the safest place. The place where the boy let Remilia and Flandre hide was in the cubicle of the study.

Using the magic book and Gloria pretending to be the eldest lady, she diverted Knight Gale's attention and successfully concealed the existence of the compartment.

Thanks to the fact that this compartment is a purely physical structure and contains no traces of magic, it avoids detection.

Remilia obviously heard the conversation between the two, so she asked Gloria directly: "When will we set off?"

"Mr. Draga has been preparing a few days ago, and we can set off as soon as tonight."

"I understand, go and do your work."

After Gloria retreated, Remilia looked at the window. All she could see through there were the marks of horse hooves, densely arranged around the castle, like a nightmare, wrapped around her body. Lingering.

"What an eyesore."

The powerless anger made Remilia feel irritable from the bottom of her heart. She was cursed by the light world and could not even step into the area shrouded in sunlight.

The desire to be powerful had already been planted in her heart, but at this moment, after being watered by self-loathing for being weak, it grew uncontrollably.

Even though he was not summoned, Gungnir suddenly shone brightly in Remilia's hand, and the rushing demonic power danced on the tip of the gun as if responding to her voice.

The roaring spiritual storm turned the study into a mess, all the glass windows were shattered, and red light flowed out wantonly, smoothing out all the unsightly horse hoof marks around the castle.

Although this was not Remilia's subjective wish, it was the embodiment of her inner thoughts. She did not realize that she had done all this, and it was not until she heard her sister's cry that she suddenly came out of that trance. wake up.

Gangnir's light slowly weakened and disappeared, and the boy appeared in front of him. Remilia was slightly startled, and slowly stretched out her hand to grab the corner of the boy's clothes, just like the night they first met.

The boy did not raise any questions about what Remilia had done, but responded to her expectations with the same reliability as always: "Let's go, Gloria has already prepared lunch."

The boy's voice seemed to have magic power, and Remilia's annoyance was miraculously suppressed for a moment.

It's not that she has given up her desire for strength, but as long as he is by her side, no enemy, no matter what kind, can hurt her.

"Onii-chan, you're very strong, aren't you?" Remilia pulled the boy's clothes and asked in a slightly stiff tone.

"Ah, it should be considered very strong." The young man did not give a very data-based answer to this question, but although the answer was ambiguous, his relaxed tone was reassuring.

But Remilia didn't seem satisfied with this answer, so she asked again: "Are you stronger than all enemies?"

"I still have this little bit of confidence." The young man responded with a smile.

"Then, will you protect me, just like now, all the time."

"This is my job, isn't it? I will protect you. This was decided from the time our destinies were connected. Well, if you are still uneasy, let's have sex."

"Lagou?"

"Yes, like this."

The young man hooked his little fingers together. He squatted down and met Remilia's eyes. Although she didn't understand the meaning of this action, she unexpectedly felt a special sense of peace of mind.

Then she smiled.
