Extra Story Dark Tales - Back to the Dividing Line
Demon Alliance, Foxborough, Duke's Mansion, reception on the third day.
"You asked about the military strength of the Black Skull and Bones? You don't need to know so much now. The only thing you need to remember is our pursuit goal. You should also understand that the reason why we made this plan is no longer focused on personal grudges. Cohen
Keda and the Sibia Empire have now become cancerous tumors on this continent. Without this plan, who can guarantee their elimination?"
"I know you have a lot of questions, but you have also seen that the plan has been discussed and is being implemented. Neither you nor I can stop this process. Are you still worried about Lieutenant General Glens? But now it is too late.
His destiny is in his own hands..."
"What are you still hesitating about? Don't you know that you are the unofficial commander-in-chief of the coalition forces? The decisive battle with Cohen Keda, a decisive battle in which all your talents can be fully utilized, isn't it what you have been looking forward to? There are people from the Black Skull and Bones Society.
With full support, you will win. Failure is a shame. Who will care about the failed Cohen Keda? Do you still want to treat this enemy with a kind heart? The harm he will bring to the mainland is unimaginable.
! We have done so many things to eliminate him and his empire, why not leave any one alive? Because Cohen Keda’s intention has penetrated into his empire, and it is useless to eliminate him alone..."
Duke Sivis was sitting in a corner of the garden, holding a glass of red wine in his hand. The words of the golden-robed officiant kept appearing in his mind, making him feel overwhelmed.
The Duke has always been a man of his duty, as a nobleman, and even more so as a soldier. Although his appearance caused him a lot of trouble, he always had a passion to maintain his faith in his heart. He always wanted to use his own
Try to change the surrounding environment and change the people around you... The Duke has never thought of killing so many innocent people just to stick to his beliefs. Although he did not kill them with his own hands, what is the difference in essence?
It turns out that the belief that I have always inherited is actually such a heavy and dark thing, but I still waste my passion and youth on it without any regrets...
Cohen Keda, ever since he knew this name, the Duke only regarded him as an opponent. Even if the former coalition marshal died because of him, the Duke did not hate this person in his heart, because it was a war that no one could do anything about! And now
, but he entered a plan with the purpose of annihilating his body and will, and could no longer escape.
Is this really the case? Is this really necessary? The Black Skull and Bones Society must ask everything clearly some other time!
"Drink this glass of wine quickly, and then give me the cup." Suddenly, a man came out from beside the Duke, "Also, you have to give me two things you brought with you. For example, handkerchiefs and scarves.
I want to exchange it for a love letter."
This person is, of course, the Emperor of Sbia, Cohen Keda, who was deceiving the Demon Alliance in the name of Asa Gutai.
Cohen had no idea about the Skull and Bones conspiracy and the Duke's troubles, and was sparing no effort in fighting for his love letter with another person. The Duke wrote with a pen, used a fan, and even sat on a stone.
He exchanged the stools for love letters. Finally, he even took some second-hand clothes, labeled them with the words used by the Duke, and traded them for love letters...
"Aren't you keen on making fakes? That's very convenient." Because there was something on his mind, Duke Swice really didn't have the energy to preach to this carefree guy, so he just asked him softly, "Why do you still ask me for something?"
Woolen cloth?"
"Well, although it is very convenient, but...occasionally...occasionally you still have to give me a real one!" Someone scratched his head in embarrassment. Although this action was very inappropriate for his current attire, it seemed...
It won't make people feel unnatural, "Because I am a very honest person! Besides, if someone exposes me, I can use the genuine article to turn around..."
"Use the real thing to turn over? How do you turn over?" Duke Swice knew in his heart that if he didn't ask this now, he would never have a good night. Someone would try their best to torture himself until he asked this question.
"It's very simple! The existence of genuine products proves that I did ask you for it." Cohen shrugged and replied disapprovingly, "This way I can prove that you gave me the fakes and that you were setting me up and it has nothing to do with me.
I am naturally innocent..."
It was obviously not a very funny joke, but Duke Swice laughed. The cheers of girls immediately came from the flowers in the distance. Cohen excitedly waved his fist and said loudly, "The first one tonight."
With a smile, I got two more love letters!"
"But, I want to ask you a question." Sitting down next to Duke Swice, Cohen asked, "You have been in a very bad mood since you met someone that day. What was the reason? You met someone.
Is there something difficult to solve?"
"Of course something happened, but please forgive me, I can't tell you, and no one can tell it." Duke Swice answered Cohen calmly, not worried at all that this kind of thing would affect the relationship between the two, "Although you have been
You refuse to admit that you are my friend, but I do treat you as a good friend. Only this matter, please let it be a secret. It can cover me, but it cannot cover you. I envy your freedom and leaving.
The family’s choice.”
"So that's it, I probably understand it a little bit." Cohen smiled, "Then, let me give you a suggestion!"
"What suggestion?" Duke Swice was a little surprised. According to his opinion, Cohen should at least complain a few times.
"If something is covering you and you can't break free, then don't waste your efforts." Cohen looked at the stars in the sky. "It's better to think about how to take it as your own and make it your own strength.
Then use this power according to your own wishes... You are so cunning, you don't need me to teach you how to do it, right?"
"Sometimes, I feel very confused about you." Duke Swice did not answer Cohen's words, but instead talked about his feelings towards him, "Your behavior and thoughts really make me unable to see through. You also have many secrets.
Keep it in your heart, right?"
"Of course there are secrets, isn't it said in a book?" Cohen sighed, "A person without secrets is incomplete."
"I'll make you whole right away!" an angry female voice sounded, and Cohen was immediately hit on the head with something.
When I turned around, I saw that it was Miss Shania Gillen and Miss Ally Fran. Miss Shania's face was full of anger, but Miss Ally who followed her smiled gently and nodded to the gentlemen.
"You guy, you're going around the world with those things in exchange for love letters. Are there any people like you who do this? You're in a duel!"
Miss Shania was very angry, but she looked even more charming in her evening dress when she was angry, "You actually used this method to duel? It's so infuriating. You exchanged a handkerchief for a love letter, and you exchanged a girl's
What do you think a love letter is?"
"Of course I know what a love letter is." Cohen hummed, his movements imitating the pride of Duke Swice, and his tone imitating Duke Swice's indifferent style, "The so-called love letter is just written
'Sir, I love you' is just a piece of waste paper. It cannot be used as food or clothing, but it can be used for self-satisfaction..."
"You...you...you!" Miss Shania was so angry that Cohen was speechless.
"Sir, a real love letter is not like that." Miss Ellie approached Cohen, first took Miss Shania's hand, and then explained to Cohen in a soft voice, "Love letters, especially love letters from girls, are
The most sincere expression of love and affection is written with great courage and shyness. Although it may not necessarily get an equal reply, at the moment when the love letter is written, the girl is already waiting for it.
I made a vow of love..."
"That's it!" Miss Senia's anger disappeared a little, but her tone was still strong, "If you rely on your true self to make women admire you and get these love letters, that's fine, but you are in exchange for items.
This shows that you don’t treat these love letters well at all, you liar..."
"Hey, everyone knows this is a duel. Will anyone really write a love letter to me? It's just a show!" Cohen looked at the two ladies in front of him, "Looking at your excitement, can it be said that you also
Wrote me a love letter?"
"You think so well, don't we still know what kind of person you are? How could we be deceived by you?" Miss Shania snorted, "It's just a few of our friends who really wrote love letters to you...
If you don’t promise to treat it well, I won’t give it to you.”
"Ah! That's it." Cohen smiled proudly, "If you don't give it to me, I will just treat someone's proposal casually, choose a woman among them, and then give someone to her..."
"You...how could you do this?" Of course Miss Shania knew who this person was, but she couldn't find a suitable reason to stop her. "It's a marriage, it's a big deal, you can't make such a hasty decision..."
"Don't worry." At this time, someone who had never spoken suddenly spoke, "Even if His Majesty the Emperor orders it, I still have opinions on my marriage. This is something I will never give up. Please rest assured, ladies."
After hearing this sentence, the three people next to me didn't know what to answer.
Such a statement is completely unlike Duke Swice's usual style!
Moreover, the Duke said, "Please don't worry, ladies." Is this what he is foreshadowing?
As a result, the two ladies made a big fuss on the spot. Fortunately, others only saw the two ladies talking to Mr. Crazy Wolf from a distance and making angry sounds, otherwise the situation of the two ladies would have changed.
Not good.
"I understand, I will help you arrange the proposal." Cohen smiled slightly, "I'm going to work hard to tease the ladies. I still have more than twenty love letters left!"
In the next few days, while teasing the noble ladies every day, Cohen also tried his best to create opportunities for the two ladies to meet the Duke. He did not know what happened to the Duke and was too lazy to take care of it.
Under his command, the intelligence system around the imperial capital had completed its overall transfer in peace. Five days later, Cohen finally collected a hundred love letters.
Cohen uncharacteristically wrote acknowledgments for these 100 letters of love. He was sincere and declined politely.
When the Duke personally delivered the receipts of these love letters to the noble ladies, many people actually shed tears for this young nobleman who "only wants to pursue freedom in his life and will never talk about marriage before he is forty years old."
The reason why Duke Swice went to deliver the receipt was of course because Lord Mad Wolf secretly dropped the receipt of the love letter and ran away... disappearing very suddenly, just like when he appeared.
On the third day after Sir Crazy Wolf left the Imperial Capital, the urgent warning from a distant country once again reached the Imperial Capital.
This means that the crazy Sibia Empire is launching the seventh attack against the Demonic Empire. But no one is surprised now, because everyone is used to it. Anyway, Sibia is like this, every few days
I'll come here to fight once, it's no big deal...
Duke Swice stood on the roof of the study, looked at the dots of beacon fire in the distance and sighed, hoping that the handwritten letter he had written and sent out a few days ago would be delivered to Lieutenant General Glens before the tragedy happened.
It is impossible to avoid the fate of the lieutenant general, but it is better to at least save his life...
At this time, our Majesty Cohen, who has caused constant turmoil in the Demon Alliance, is still dressed as Asa Gutai, and is walking with Bai Ying in the dense forest at the dividing line between gods and demons.
"Please tell me the reason." Bai Ying followed Cohen, "Why don't we go back to the Holy Capital and go to the army, but we have to trek step by step in the dense forest?"
"I forgot that when you came to me, the Battle of Tucheng had already passed." Hearing Bai Ying's question, Cohen replied without looking back: "Tell you what! Go through the forest in front, it's
It’s the place where Tucheng used to be.”
"Why do you come here? The army headquarters is not here!"
"Of course it's not here, but I have some things that need to be verified." Cohen stopped, "One thing you don't know is our original escape route. That passage was very magical, very strange, and inaccessible to humans. I
I want to investigate it carefully and find out the reason."
"Why are you suddenly looking for answers?"
"Because a person like Siwes won't worry too much about trivial matters. What can make him do this must be a big thing. And now, what other big things are there? His performance makes me feel unusual.
"
Cohen looked at the surrounding environment, "It seems like there is something surrounding me, something dangerous... So I came here, hoping to find something that can help me, no matter what it is, since it will help me in the first place,
Then you will still help me now."
Then Cohen explained the situation of the Tucheng Passage in detail, and even Bai Ying was surprised.
"The passage is alive, does it still exist now?" Bai Ying stopped and considered Cohen's words carefully, "If it is not a person, but something else... then the reason why this passage still exists now is...
…”
"I just figured out that the only reason why this passage still exists..." Cohen turned around and smiled at Bai Ying, "She is waiting for me, I want to find her."
"But, the passage is so big..."
"As long as I appear near the passage, as long as she is waiting for me." Cohen continued walking, "she will jump out on her own!"
Deep in the dense forest of the dividing line, a leaf suddenly trembled slightly... (To be continued)
