"Not having a god to believe in may not sound like a very serious matter, but in fact, it is very serious."
"Because demons cannot produce the power of faith, which is a hindrance to the gods, and our development will definitely interfere with the development of human elves and other creatures, thus affecting their acquisition of the power of faith."
"As long as we occupy the land we own, the number of humans and other creatures will increase dramatically, and the power of faith produced will naturally be more abundant."
"But the gods cannot directly interfere with the world, so they use another method."
When Senal said this, he paused and said word by word:
"That's how to cultivate heroes!"
"Creating heroes?"
Some memories suddenly popped out of her mind, and Lu Qing understood what Senal meant in an instant.
It's similar to those brave men in previous animations. The gods cultivated the brave men and then asked the brave men to defeat the demons.
And what Senal said here about cultivating heroes should have the same meaning.
As expected, what Seinal said next was not much different from what Lu Qing had imagined.
"Rely on divine power to cultivate humans who are not believers, and then create various coincidences, accidents, or opportunities to allow these heroes to gain strong strength and character."
"In the history of the demon clan, these heroes have appeared a total of eight times. The last time they appeared was five hundred years ago. Before that, the interval between heroes appearing was about once every three hundred years."
"Of the heroes in the previous seven times, there were three humans, two elves, one dwarf, and once it was an orc."
"These heroes have caused very serious damage to the demon clan, which is why we cannot withstand the last one."
"After the Sleepless City was breached and the Demon King was killed, our army began to retreat steadily, and was finally driven out of the mainland completely."
"Until we were driven out by humans, we spent everything we had left to build this city that can float on the sea."
"Because there is only one demon city left in the entire world, this city has not been named. It is just called Demon City."
"Perhaps it's because we live on the sea. After Kabell's death, the gods have not cultivated another hero for five hundred years."
"well."
Sighing, Senal showed a worried look on her face and said:
"It's not impossible if we can continue like this. Half a month ago, there was a change in the starry sky. According to the careful confirmation of the fortune teller in Castlevania, it probably won't be long before the next hero appears."
"By then, our last Demon City will probably be destroyed."
The expression on Seinal's face was somewhat lonely. She looked at Lu Qing and said, "We have been forced to the point where we are almost at the end of our rope."
After hesitating for a moment, Lu Qing pointed at herself and said:
"You brought me here, don't you want me to deal with that new hero?"
"Ugh..."
Senal suddenly stretched out his arms, hugged Lu Qing into his arms, and kneaded his face with his hands.
"Hahaha, don't worry, sister, I won't let a cute little girl like you fight."
"Let me go..."
Struggling out of Senal's arms, Lu Qing stood up and sat silently on the other side of Senal.
"I'm sorry, you're so cute, I just can't help it." Sailor clasped her hands together and apologized.
However, from the other party's face, Lu Qing could not tell that she was apologetic in any way.
"The ram's horn headdress is really cute." Seinal added, looking at Lu Qing who was blushing.
"Let's continue talking about business. You haven't said why you wanted to arrest me yet." Lu Qing said helplessly.
"Okay, then I'll continue."
The expression on Seinal's face became serious again. She looked at Lu Qing and said, "What we need is not you, but your blood."
"My blood?"
"That's right."
Seinal pointed at Lu Qing and said, "We have studied a ritual that can absorb the blood of others."
"If you want to deal with a hero, you have to use the hero's power to defeat him. Bloodline alone may not be enough, but if you add the strength of the Demon King himself, then it shouldn't be a problem to deal with the hero this time."
"..."
Lu Qing was silent. She wanted to tell the female devil in front of her that her plan was destined to fail, because according to the script, she would be defeated by Ella in the end.
And the ending of the story will be good for human elves.
The devil was defeated. Ella, the hero who defeated the devil, took his sister and fell from the sky on a paper umbrella, drifting across the blue sea and back to the Elf Forest.
No one knows what Castlevania will look like after the death of the Demon King. The audience in the audience will not know or care about such things.
They don't even know that all the actions of the demons are just to keep themselves alive.
But Lu Qing couldn't stop all of this from happening, and from her standpoint as a human being, she couldn't do this kind of thing.
Because no one knows what will happen after the devil defeats humans. Who knows what will happen to humans when the position is reversed?
After opening her mouth, Lu Qing was unable to say what she wanted to say.
"Why are you telling me this? Logically speaking, you don't need my permission to hold this ceremony."
Hearing Lu Qing's words, Senal nodded and said: "It's true that you don't need your consent, but we hope you can be more cooperative. This can save a lot of trouble."
After saying this, Senal thought for a while and continued: "There is one thing I think it is necessary to apologize to you. When the Demon King gave the order before, in order to prevent panic, the order was very vague.
."
"As a result, the demon who captured you threw you directly into prison. At that time, the Demon King and I were still checking and adjusting the ritual to ensure that it would be effective, and did not notice this matter."
"I didn't bring you out of prison until today. From now on, you can just live in this castle."
"Live here?" Lu Qing grasped the key point and said: "Will the ceremony take a while to be carried out?"
Senal nodded and said: "Yes, now is not the best time to start the ceremony."
"Then when is the best time?" Lu Qing couldn't help but ask.
"Well..." Senal showed some hesitation on his face, then smiled and said: "It's not impossible to tell you, as long as you let me squeeze your face."
"..."
Silent in her heart, with the attitude of giving it a try, Lu Qing sat next to the other party again after hesitating for a while.
Being held in his arms again, feeling the soft touch on the back of his head and the feeling of his face being rubbed, Lu Qing said:
"Now... you can use the steel wire to draw the line. (You can tell me now.)"
"Of course." Senal actually understood. She rubbed Lu Qing's face and said:
"The next full moon night will be the most suitable time."
