"Have you met the little princess?" The Dark Lord's voice floated in the deep palace hall: "How is she doing?"
"Reporting to His Highness the Demon King, when we caught up with His Highness the little princess, Her Highness was in good condition and did not appear to have suffered any signs of abuse, but..." The first Demon General kneeling on the floor hesitated for a moment, holding back the old and new.
The pain radiated from the wound: "It's just that the human man next to His Highness was very disrespectful to His Highness in his words."
"You're not speaking very respectfully, so you've already done something, right?" Looking at the injuries on the first demon general, the Dark Lord nodded in relief: "Crow? What do you think of him?"
"We are incompetent and cannot rescue the little princess from his hands." The first demon general's head hung slightly: "What he possesses is a power that is strange to us but very powerful, and he can release power
The way……"
"The way he releases his power makes you feel familiar and frightened, right?" The Dark Lord took over the words that the first demon general did not dare to finish, and then waved his hand gently: "I understand, you go down and recuperate.
"
After the ashamed-faced First Demon General exited the hall, the eldest princess on the side stepped forward and said: "Father, ordinary humans actually have the ability to harm the Dark Demon Clan. This is beyond the scope of what we can tolerate. In order to protect the Dark Demon Clan,
For the sake of my dignity, and for the sake of the tranquility of Bis Continent, I ask my father to allow me to kill this person, and jointly hold Emperor Si Biya accountable for harboring this person."
"You are so eager to bring back the little princess for me, right?" The Dark Lord smiled faintly and took the eldest princess's impulse into his own hands: "Actually, there is no need. The little princess already has her own opinion. Let's not do it.
If you worry about everything for her, you might as well consider what direction is best for her. Otherwise, if you do bad things with good intentions and end it for her every time, she will never truly mature. If nothing else, she is
This time I went out willfully and caused a lot of trouble to the dark demons and Sbia."
"But father..." Realizing that her tone was too eager, the eldest princess slowed down her voice: "Then we will no longer pursue the matter of Crow having the ability to harm the first demon general?"
"His origin is actually very complicated. No third party besides me and the God King knows about it. Even Cohen Keda, who is closest to him, and even he himself don't know. I will tell you the whole thing in detail later,
But now, it is obviously not the time yet." The Dark Lord motioned the eldest princess to come closer and said gently: "Don't touch crows or anything related to crows anymore. This is related to my agreement with the God King.
.Also, don’t try to establish contact with the little princess, because as long as the crow is willing, the transmission of consciousness and spying magic between the gods and demons will be ineffective, even the god king and I are no exception."
"As you command, father." The Dark Lord's words shocked the eldest princess. After the little princess got married, she had spied on the little princess's environment many times, but all ended in failure. Before, she thought it was her little sister.
Because she gave up the power of the demons, she never thought that the failure of magic would be related to an "inconspicuous" human being, and the origin of this human being was so mysterious that even she couldn't know it. She couldn't help but worry about the safety of the little princess.
.
Not to mention that this human named Crow also has the ability to disable the transmission of consciousness between gods and demons and to detect the failure of magic. For any member of the dark demon clan, this is beyond the scope of shock. Crow, he originally
How could he be so powerful if he was just a killer from the Temple of Light?
"You don't need to worry too much. The crow can hurt the demon general, but that doesn't mean he will hurt the little princess. These are completely different things." The demon king saw through the eldest princess's mind and comforted her and said: "Besides, we don't
Knowing what the little princess's mentality was for running away from him, if it was really a matter between the two of them, then it would be best to let the two of them resolve it themselves. If some affection could arise between them, that would be gratifying.
"
"I obey the order!" The eldest princess bowed slightly and said, "Because of this incident, Sibiya is making a big fuss. How should we deal with it?"
"You have always been handling the matter of Cohen Keda. I will not give you any advice on this matter. I believe you can find the most suitable method. Didn't you do a good job some time ago?" The Dark Lord
He showed a hidden smile: "You go down, the matter of the crow is under the care of the God King, so the Light God Clan will not interfere."
Now that the Dark Lord has given instructions on this matter, the eldest princess can only obey her father's will. Although she is still worried about the Dark Lord being injured at the hands of Crow, the authority of the Dark Lord is unquestionable.
, and she couldn't ask again and again about some things that were "not timely".
After walking out of the Demon King's palace, the eldest princess saw the injured No. 1 Demon General still waiting outside the door, so she went over to comfort him a few words. However, secretly, her hatred for Sibia and Cohen had obviously deepened.
layer.
Sbia Empire, special province of Campo, southern mountains.
In this season, the light moonlight will gradually become deeper after nightfall, evenly shining on the unique deep blue tone of the mountains here, as if everything is covered with a layer of gauze called "dream". The cold reflection
Jumping overhead, the gentle breeze brought bursts of "rustling", and everything in the field of vision became so hazy, but with an unreal sense of beauty. Occasionally, a long cry of wild beasts was heard from the distance.
, will break this peaceful and distant picture.
The man in white is walking on the mountain path, empty-handed and alone. His steps ignore the ruggedness and always follow a rhythm, even the amplitude of each step is exactly the same; his eyes pass through obstacles and are always looking straight ahead, not knowing at all
Showing any emotion...as if he should belong here and be an integral part of this silence.
Compared with the man in white, the delicate figure following him seemed out of place in this environment. Although her face was very pure, she was trying hard to follow his steps. She never complained or even breathed.
So soft, but she still doesn't belong here, because the traces of imitation and reluctance on her body are too heavy. The plants and trees on both sides of the path are rejecting her existence, which makes her figure look lonely and...
It seems that I feel pity for him.
Yes, this is the eloping crow and the little princess of the demon clan. Ever since they were caught up by the demon general in the wilderness of Dingcheng and were forced to abandon the carriage, they have been traveling in such an atmosphere. For the demon clan,
Embarrassment and loneliness are nothing, but the crow is special. He can make the little princess feel an inexplicable fear.
After leaving the Youshuang Palace, the crow naturally returned to the solitary character of the former killer. He never spoke more than five words, and his movements were all razor-sharp. The little princess has been growing up in the depths of Hell Island since she can remember.
Palace, where did Cohen's cunning and affinity come from? He was helplessly reduced to a completely passive situation.
Over the past few days, following the crow from the wilds of the city to the mountains of the special province of Campo, the little princess has understood that her previous methods have no effect on the crow, and she can only use other tricks. She has cried, she has made trouble, she has
He also talked to the crow, but it was of no use. Or from the crow's point of view, the little princess's actions were no different from those who begged for their lives under his sword in the past, and were even not as brave as some people.
Before leaving the city, the little princess hoped to find answers to certain questions in the crow, but in fact, in that kind of vague communication, the little princess really felt that the secrets of the dark demons were being revealed.
The crow unraveled bit by bit - the little princess fell into silence, and then discovered that the crow had no clear goal. In addition to avoiding the hunting army and checkpoints, his route was completely arbitrary. To put it nicely, the crow was completely free.
This is aimless, or to put it harshly, it is... wandering.
Seeing that the journey was getting farther and farther, and the road ahead was full of confusion, she could only complain in her heart and pray silently, hoping that her eldest sister would show up to rescue her. If the little princess knew the reaction of the Dark Lord, she would regret her treatment of the crow.
An attempt, right? However, there is no regret in selling medicine in this world. All she can do now is to endure it silently. After all, she planted this bitter fruit with her own hands.
The crow walking in front stopped and looked at the path that forked in front with confusion. He hesitated for a moment and turned in the direction leading to a dense forest. The little princess who followed five steps away was already used to the crow.
This kind of behavior, she followed them indifferently. Before entering the woods, she raised her head and took a look - the canopy was neatly arranged in layers, and in the middle was a path that could only be walked by a single person. If it was a sunny day,
, the scenery here will definitely be very good.
But at night, under the moonlight, this deep forest felt a little eerie. Although the little princess didn't want to go in, she had no choice. The crow had already turned her head, reminding her with that cold gaze who was the real one.
Boss. If there is one person in this world besides the Dark Lord who the little princess cannot violate, it is undoubtedly the crow.
The established rhythm was restored, and a white and purple figure marched on the forest path. The road under the moonlight seemed so long that it would never end, and it was curved like a question mark that would never be answered. Aini
His Highness even had a very absurd hallucination in his mind, that he would always follow the crow, and just go on like this...
After all, hallucinations are hallucinations and cannot compete with reality. The crow walking in front stopped without warning. The little princess, who was immersed in loss, did not notice it and almost collided with him. Based on her experience in the past few days, she
This kind of reckless behavior will face severe punishment. But this time, the crow didn't care, or in other words, he didn't notice it.
The crow closed his eyes slightly, and when he opened his eyes again, his pupils flashed with a trace of splendor. This time, the crow did not move in a hurry, but stood quietly in place, as if something was wrong.
It was difficult to make a decision. The little princess behind him was confused because nothing like this happened along the way. There was only one road under his feet and there was nothing unusual around him. Why did he stop?
Finally, Crow's footsteps moved forward, and he gave up all methods to hide himself. The grass blades rubbed under the soles of his shoes, making a slight sound, and the skirt of his clothes was blown by the night wind, floating gently...
"Have you reached a safe place?" the little princess thought, and her mood relaxed.
It wasn't until she turned another corner and a circular open space appeared in front of her that the little princess realized that she had thought wrong!
This is a very regular circular open space. The surrounding trees, grass and vines have been carefully trimmed. There are no dead branches or leaves on the ground, and there is not even the faint smell of decay in the forest. However, what shocked the little princess the most was
The group of stone tables and chairs in the center of the open space - she had seen tables and chairs of this shape in the Imperial Garden when she left Youshuang Palace. This was something that Cohen Keda liked!
There is a sword, a pot of wine, and two wine glasses on the table.
Without the shadow of many trees, the moonlight spreads over the open space without any hindrance, casting a slanting shadow on the tables, chairs, wine and swords. The sword is black iron, the pot is silver, and the wine glass is crystal clear. The three complement each other, reflecting a little bit of charming.
Broken light. The night breeze blows all around, and the figures are graceful. What kind of poetic and picturesque feeling should this be?
No! When this scene fell into the eyes of the little princess, she could only feel two words - fear! Weird!
In other words, what the little princess felt was the coldness and severity of the two atmospheres intertwined.
Cohen Keda came, he chose this place and time, prepared everything, and quietly waited for the crow and himself to come to the door... What did he want to explain with this arrangement? He hoped to use this to express
The anger and regret of a human male after being betrayed? Or hope that the crow understands his subsequent revenge?
Human beings really don’t want to look directly at their own race!
The crow's hesitation and stop before must have sensed something was wrong, right?
The most confusing thing in the little princess's heart is why she didn't realize that there was an ambush here? She was sure that she had not given up this ability. The Sibiya troops that had been chasing and blocking them before were unable to escape due to her super perception...
...Until now, she is still not sure that it is Cohen Keda himself there. It seems that the current dark demons still underestimate him.
Cohen Keda had his back to the two of them and stood motionless at the other end of the stone table. The large black cloak blocked his body below the shoulders, but it made the whole person's profile look very majestic, at least in a small way.
From the princess's perspective, he was now a wall in front of her, which she could never cross with her own ability.
The crow walked straight over, and his footsteps became very strange at this time. The little princess could be sure that such footsteps had never appeared on a crow. This was completely a way of letting go of all vigilance, and even a kind of relief.
Characteristics that can only be shown in one's mood. That kind of relaxation and indifference can never be possessed by a killer or a betrayer!
Crow who walked to the table looked at the wine bottle and sat down without saying a word.
The moment Crow sat down, Aine Isabant's eyes almost froze, and an expression of disbelief stayed on her face for a long time, until it gradually disintegrated, and finally her face turned ashen...
Although she was shocked that Cohen Keda found them, when she was planning this plan, she had deduced this possible scenario countless times in her mind. The worst result would be a fight between the two sides, with both sides losing. In any case, the situation
They will all be controlled by themselves. You must know that this is the encounter between a betrayer and a betrayed. How could there be another ending?
Along the way, no matter how bad the situation got, no matter how Crow treated herself, she never gave up hope. She firmly believed that as long as she took the first step, the whole incident would develop according to common sense and achieve the results of the original plan. But what was in front of her was
Everything, but broke the little princess's last psychological sustenance... I have to say, the taste of failure is very uncomfortable.
Less than ten steps away from the little demon princess, Emperor Sbia let out a long sigh, and then slowly turned around.
Cohen Keda's expression at this time was very calm. He was not looking at her firmly at the dividing line between gods and demons, nor was he roaring madly in the Baohua Building. So under his calm gaze, Aini felt...
·His Royal Highness Isabel Ant’s body began to tremble slightly!
At this moment, there was only one very direct doubt in her mind - was he really human?
If he is really a human being, how come he has absolutely no emotions and emotions that humans should have?
"Your Highness, do you know that your departure has greatly affected the Sibia Empire? It has been thirty-three days since you left Youshuang Palace." Cohen Keda's voice was very soft, without any emotion: "Here
Within a period of time, the civil administration was almost abandoned, which led to unpredictable changes in the political structure of the empire, and all of this will affect the entire continent in the days to come. In the name of Emperor Sibia, I order you to
Bear all the consequences, Your Highness has ten days to write a letter of apology to the superiors."
The little demon princess' face was ashen and she stared at the crow fiercely without saying a word.
"Here comes someone." Cohen didn't care whether she answered or not: "Take Aine Isabant back to Youshuang Palace and take good care of her."
With the sound of footsteps, the tall half-orc lord - Major General Rock appeared next to the little demon princess, reminding the little princess with cold and contemptuous eyes that her stage has ended and she should be on her way. Aine Isab
Ant's eyes were full of humiliation and unwillingness, but in the end he turned away resolutely, without saying a word from beginning to end.
"You don't like her." After a long time, Cohen's voice broke the silence after the little princess left, and the crow's silence was considered a kind of acquiescence.
"What a beautiful moonlight." Cohen smiled slightly and sat down in front of the crow: "Drinking at this time is the most pleasant thing." After that, he picked up the silver pot and filled the two wine glasses.
"Your route is too weird. It's easy for me to find. Cheers." The two wine glasses touched each other in the air and bottomed out at the same time.
"I don't care if you abduct her. If you two can become a couple, I will set up two tables to celebrate - cheers." The two wine glasses touched each other again and bottomed out again.
"Already have two cups." Crow covered the mouth of the cup with his hand: "Now, tell me what you care about."
"Do you really want to say it?" Cohen looked at the crow, his expression much gloomier than before: "Those are all bad things."
"Sooner or later, things will be made clear one day." Crow Crow seemed very calm, as if at this moment he was a monarch who had insight into people's hearts and possessed all directions: "You are not a person who likes to hide your inner thoughts.
It’s been so long and it’s hard for you.”
"Agree, you are destined to face what you are destined to face, and you can never escape." Cohen nodded, his hand shook, and a few drops of wine spilled on the table. (To be continued)
