Crime and Punishment (7)
.” Can the sealer decide on Kara’s identity. Is it possible for everyone? If it is true that Klein doesn’t do it himself? As a demon crystal apostle, he can also be considered a voter of the demon god. Why doesn’t he lift the ban himself, but instead ask me to do it? Is it related to the demon god’s swaying attitude?
No, if you think about it carefully, this seems to make no sense. If faith can really determine whether the original Kara or the gods of another world whose power has been usurped after the unsealed darkness, if Mara, Ceresto and Shivig have reached some agreement in private, then they should not make the faith stronger. "At least, more appropriate in identity, such as Lucien. As the new pope, even if his faith is not so firm, at least in terms of his attitude towards divine weapons, he is more pious and respectful than Klein and me. Why not choose him? Alberrecht. If Mara really wants to make him one of his many followers, why not let him open this seal? As long as he doesn't tell him the truth, he just says that it can break the ancient seal of the army of the dark camp, why not do this?"
Just as Victor was thinking hard, Neli, who had been facing away from him, suddenly stood up, but her eyes did not look at the pillars that Victor was hiding, but faced the direction of the gate.
"Article sacrifice!"
A slightly dull call came from outside the door. “What’s the matter? Didn’t I say not to disturb me?” Nelly’s nervousness was a little relieved after hearing that it was the priest in the temple.
"The Great Elder asked me to inform you that the vanguard of humanity has arrived in Alfonso."
"So fast, shouldn't there be still half a day?" Neli was slightly surprised. No matter how fast the airship was, it would be impossible for him to arrive in Beilu now.
"The human garrison on the ground was defeated by the Golden Dragon and had begun to flee."
"I knew that when I remembered the golden dragon that reached a contract with the Holy Empire through the Viin Code, Neri laughed silently. How could she forget this? That damn dragon! It can be teleported directly wherever it has been,"
Putting away the shadow crystal, Nai Wan opened the heavy wooden door locked from the temple, but unexpectedly, besides the priest who came to report the news, there was another figure she most reluctant to see.
"You" eyes widened in vain, and panic only appeared on the face of the dark elf female priest for an extremely short moment. Soon she armed herself with sternness and displeasure.
"Why are you here
"The high priest is joking. Since it is the altar of the demon god Celesto, it is not surprising that I, the apostle of the magic crystal, appear here. But, what are you doing sneakily?!" A low laugh spread in the empty hall. Victor recognized the moment he heard it. This familiar voice belonged to Klein.
"You" dares to talk to me in this tone." Although he realized that Klein was no longer a helpless slave in the past, Connelly could not change her habits for many years. While scolding her, she subconsciously glanced at the shadow crystal in her hand. The image of the Lich King disappeared when Neli showed a warning expression. Even so, Neli was still worried that Klein knew that she had a secret connection with Paglotte. Even if she had not made up her mind, she would only be regarded as a traitor.
"Although you are a respected priest in the clan, you should be aware that the gap between us is not just the rank represented by a few numbers. Ceresto is a god who likes to prove everything with his strength. Even if I have no reason to kill you, he will not blame me for this. What's more, if you betray first, I'm just cleaning up the portal
Neli's face changed drastically, before Klein could finish speaking, he crossed the other hand holding the scepter. The black lightning shot out from the crystal at the tip of the scepter with thunder.
Klein did not dodge and took a blow. Lightning hit the body with red tattoos like a rock sinking into the sea. Neli retreated again. He belonged to a divine weapon. In terms of divine art, their powers offset each other. It can be said that no one can kill anyone, but once he entered the hand-to-hand combat, Neli knew very well that she was definitely not Klein's opponent.
"Don't worry, your opponent has someone else." Seeing Neli retreating in fear, Klein pulled the corner of his mouth and pulled out a curve that made Victor hiding in the dark feel bad.
"Hey, how long do you want to hide there?"
Neli's whole body was stiff and turned around in Klein's sight. After a pillar, she found the culprit that made her restless. No wonder she always felt something was wrong just now, it turned out to be her hallucination.
"I'm not interested in participating in your personal grudges." Victor made his position, and before he figured out Klein, it was the devil's plan, An didn't want to take risks.
"I said why didn't you take the opportunity to kill me? It turns out that you are also a traitor!!" Neli, who was originally unsure of herself, burst into laughter when she saw Victor appear.
That's great, no matter what the Demon God's judgment on me is. Klein's betrayal by bringing another believer to the altar. He is suppressed by the divine weapon, even as a divine envoy, I can't fully exert my full strength. Even if I have two-on-one, I still have a chance of winning.
Seeing Neli's expression changed from anxiety to gladness, Klein always had a cold expression with a smile.
"You don't seem to understand the situation, Neri Sacrifice. I don't do it myself, it's not that I put this guy in. If it weren't for the tight war on the surface, and this guy pushed me and refused to take action, I'll suppress it.
Klein's sense of pressure increased sharply, and Victor keenly captured the disgust and hatred flashing in the demon's eyes.
Even if it was suppressed quickly, it still realized it. This was the first time Victor had truly felt Klein's true feelings, rather than the illusion that was disguised.
Even if he is related to blood, he never calls Sister Neli or a more intimate title. "Is it the culprit that led to him becoming a demon eighty years ago?
"You seem sure we dare not do it." Do you really think Victor and I will restrain ourselves if this is the altar?" The sneered expression showed Klein's rebelliousness and rebellion. Neri's left arm and fingers moved slightly, and was immediately suppressed by Klein's pressure: "Don't move, don't force me to kill you now."
Victor walked forward and pulled the shadow crystal from Neli's hand. With a hard grip, Neli's last hope turned into useless fragments with a bang.
"There is no time left, unseal the seal." Although his eyes were staring at Nelly, Klein's words were said to Victor.
"Tell me why I prevented the showdown between Alberrecht and I, and I will unseal the seal. Since Klein is unwilling to say about Celesto's real purpose, at least this must be clarified, and perhaps it can be calculated by devil's Jirong. Victor was planning this way.
"Alberrecht will attack the ground at any time. Do you want him to complete the mission of liberating Kara?" Drawing out the scimitar, Klein shook his head at Neli, who was trying to find a chance to fight back, and signaled her not to act rashly.
"This exchange is fair. I didn't force you to tell your master's plan." Although it was not visible on the surface, after spending so many years together, Victor could still notice that Klein began to be impatient.
"You are so stubborn and forced to do nothing. Klein can only tell the truth that he has been hiding: "Everything is a trial, a trial that you have started without knowing that you have a half-brother. Don't glare at me. I also know it's not long.
"The key points" could feel the tremor. Victor knew that the priest just now that the tight war on the surface that the priest said was not a lie that tempted Nellie to open the door.
"Didn't you always want to know why the chants were destroyed? As a descendant of Mara, the clan with divine blood was abandoned by the magical weapon that created it. The reason is very simple, pure blood. The chants who want to keep the supreme glory of the chants inbreeding. They created pure blood with divine nature, which threatened Mara. The God King originally wanted only an obedient servant, a loyal clump of his blood flowing, not another Shivig. I don't understand, "You are really forgetful, so quickly that he forgot that he is the father of all the gods in this world. In order to prevent the divine nature from being taken away, he turned his attention to mortals. Although the mixed blood reduced the power of the divine power, faith allowed him to exist even after sealing his twin gods."
"What did you want to say about Klein's hint that made Victor secretly shocked. If what he said was true, no." Without the fact that the chants had been destroyed, and in the end, the three of them became undead and the other became demons. Even Alberrecht was about to become a god, and the chants would really no longer exist.
"I think I have already said it very clearly. Too pure blood created a cherry with divine nature, and became another kind of existence. The ancestors who were dissatisfied with it were just subordinate gods, so they defected to the gods from another world. This is the true identity of the fallen spirit, not the illusion of annihilation in history. As Klein said, he only knew the truth from Ceresto not long ago. Compared to Victor, Klein did not care about the past of the family. Anyway, he only had one-quarter of the blood of the cherry, and neither had any feelings for the cherry nor had he been recognized. Whether the cherry extermination or continuation of the cherry has anything to do with him. It is precisely because Klein did not attach and entangle with the cherry as Victor that Ceresto was relieved to tell him the hidden truth.
Is it destined to be sacrificed from the beginning?
Victor didn't know whether he should thank Shivig for hiding the true origin of the hymn or hating him for not telling the truth. If he had known the truth eight years ago, he might not have been thinking about facing Mara and pursuing such meaningless truth.
"You seem to be very disappointed." So I don't want to tell you the truth. Notice the change in Victor's expression, Klein couldn't help complaining: "From the beginning, I reminded you that your pursuit is undoubtedly true. If it were me, I would never be entangled in the history I had already lived."
"Even if he knew that it was me, the fallen spirit, why did Shivig choose me as his elect? He knew that I was so eager to get the answer and even betrayed the glory of the family, wouldn't he be worried that one day I would find out the truth and surrender to the magic weapon of another world in despair? "I have told you the truth I want to know, in exchange, don't you want to make some reward? The eyes floated to the altar behind Victor, and Klein said it was clear that he wanted Victor to unseal the seal.
Although there are many offerings on the altar, none of them meet the requirements. Victor's gaze condensed on the hideous statue of the demon god. Could it be that it is sealed within the statue?
