Blood Sea (5)

After throwing out his identity as a high priest's younger brother, Klein was taken by Neri to the temple deep in the rock wall by the pirates.

This simple offering land that had not been excavated for a long time had nothing but a statue of a demon god. The believers were dismissed, and the female priest left only the great leader.

Rebek was deeply suspicious of this brother who suddenly appeared. He was not a pure dark elf in terms of height alone. No matter what species, he was more concerned about bloodline. It was okay for ordinary people, but most nobles and powerhouses were deeply disgusted with mixed-race people.

As a high priest and also the patriarch, why did Neli admit that a mixed race is almost unknown to her brother?

"It is not surprising that your generation doesn't know him. Eighty years ago, he was a famous character in Beilu - a blood-colored mercenary." Neli's lips raised slightly, and a faint smile appeared. Although she still looked indifferent, she was still in a good mood, who knew her well.

It's him!

Although Rebek is only forty years old, he has heard of the rumors of the blood-colored mercenaries.

He is known as the strongest warrior in Beilu, the champion of the Blood Arena for ten consecutive years, and the mercenary who is almost equal to legend. But didn’t he die in the Civil War eighty years ago? Why is he still alive, and... it seems that he is the enemy?

"I heard from Bailer, are you staying in the South Land now?" Without answering Rebek's doubts, Nellie directly asked Klein. Staying him down was just to let him know the decision he had to make next.

Nellie's attitude made Klein's brow even more entangled with the topic that should have been discussed privately in front of the pirate leader.

He knew this half-sister too well. She would never interfere in the matter without profit, and she would never give a good face to the enemy. It would be not a good thing to be so obvious that she was close to her...

Victor will not reveal his purpose of entering the middle world to Baile without reservation, and Nellie will not know the true identity of the lich. To her, Victor is just the illegitimate son of the great man. He is far from the point of paying attention to it. Is her current behavior really as Baile said, and she wants to make herself officially return?

A joke, do you still want him to accept this acceptance that was too late?

He is not angry or interested.

With purpose, he does not need to take interests as the starting point, and affect family affection for power and position.

"For the time being, although the conditions over there are harsh, they are much better than when staying in Hoku. At least I don't have to worry about Victor's knife behind me."

"Humans will not truly form an alliance with you. I have convinced the Senate to let them give up their prejudices. I wanted Bailer to notify you, but I didn't expect you to go north so soon. Just follow me to go back to the Night Cinema." Nellie didn't hear the sarcasm in Klein's words. Although she was unruly, her combat power was necessary at the moment. In any case, she could not let him continue to stay in the Southland.

"You seem to misunderstand what I mean." Klein sneered: "Although Victor has become a dead soul, he has the so-called chivalrous spirit that he himself does not know, and he will always attack from the front. Although this kid is rigid, he is stupid and cute. Even if he wants to rebel or become an enemy, he will inform him in advance that I will not give up such an ally."

Neli's smile disappeared: "So, do you want to reject the position of the Blood Martial Arts Chief? You must know that I can't let you become the patriarch now. It's the limit that a mixed-race can become the commander of the entire clan warrior. Don't be too greedy!"

"The person who made the mistake is you, the high priest."

Nelly never used the word "sister" to Klein, he had no family, and he did not have one before, and he would be the same in the future.

"What I don't care about is the position of the martial arts chief or the clan leader. No matter you or anyone, I can't give me what I once hoped for. Time grinds my innocent childhood thoughts, here, here..." Pointing to my heart and head, Klein said something horrible to the pirate leader who killed countless people: "I am an unordered person, and I have no interest in establishing an orderly law. I am an unsatisfied person and have no dreams that must be realized. From beginning to end, there is only one thing I pursue, that is, fighting, whether with myself, with the same clan, or with human beings, all I want is fighting. Once it stops, this body that lives only for battle will also lose its life."

"Crazy!" Nellie criticized Klein's remarks.

"Isn't it the dark elves led by you and the humans on the right side that have forced me to this situation? What qualifications do you have to evaluate the monsters you have created? Besides, the lord I serve has agreed that as long as he can create chaos in the middle world and as long as he can enjoy the battle that satisfies him, he will not intervene no matter what I want to do. You, understand what I mean, the Great Priest of Neri." Klein said word by word with his right hand on his left chest.

Listening to the dark force that leaps like a heart, Neri bit her lower lip.

As a high priest, how could she not feel the breath that ordinary people cannot detect?

Whether it is favor or blessing, that is, the power of God.

Is it too late? This younger brother, who was branded with dark marks from birth, was baptized by blood and death since childhood. Although she tried her best to win over, she never succeeded from beginning to end. How could they have thought that this mixed-race, which was regarded as a shame, would one day be chosen and become the darling of the demon god Celesto.

"The reminiscence has come to this point." Suddenly, a familiar force was sensed, and Klein pulled out the first smile after meeting Neli: "Don't you mind giving me the honor of defeating the lurking pirates in the Northland as a gift for me, right?"

"What...this, this is..." Neli was caught in thought and was surprised for a moment. Soon, she also sensed other forces that invaded the island, a stream of darkness, with the breath of death and other gods. The other was light that pierced the pain all over her body. Such a strong holy power... was obviously a member of the higher-level church with holy objects.

"You actually told me?" Nellie was incredible. Unexpectedly, Klein was really incompatible with me.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it. After all, I didn't expect that as the leader of the clan, you would be here. I originally thought that this was just an ordinary temple. How could I do if I wanted to please the nobles of humanity without doing some results? Those guys were jealous of my identity. Who told me that I had unpleasant dark skin? If I inherited more of my mother's bloodline, I could also pretend to be a white elf. Unfortunately~" The smiling demon did not apologize at all. Neli lowered his spell and instructed Rebek to investigate the situation outside.

As soon as the chief left the temple, he immediately saw the new intruder.

Two people, one black and one white, stood on the open space of the square by the pirates. The man in the black robe wore a strange wolf-headed mask, full of mystery. He could not guess the history for a while. He could only vaguely feel from his decoration that he should be a magician who could use spells. The other one was very easy to identify. The Sun Holy Emblem, the costumes on white background and gold edges, and the lightsaber round shield emblem all marked their origins - the Apologist Knight from Saint Vanssetis.

"Only two people dare to go to the island, do you want to die?"

"Kill these two arrogant guys, their equipment can be sold for a lot of money." The pirates who were used to robbing ignored Lucien's most representative logo. If Neli was present, he would never let these people who had never seen the world speak loudly.

Although Paladins are more lethal to the enemy camp, they are more invincible than ordinary people than dark elves.

With a specific direction, with the high-speed flight of Light Wings and the assistance of magic, Victor and Lucien arrived at Kuroka Island in the middle of the night. At this time, the Tidis Navy was still kept in the dark, and the warships of the Magic Society and the Church were left behind, and it was estimated that they would not arrive until dawn.

"Go up, I'll cover you. Although range magic can easily solve the problem, the Navy wants to live, not to destroy it." Victor was ready to help with his hands and put out a prayer gesture.

Lucien pulled out the light of Mara, and the light-like blade made the pirates gathered nearby subconsciously cover their eyes.

"In the name of the God of Light, here judge the unclean and ungod."

"Damn! What is he talking about?" Hearing the prayers recited by the church knights every time they fight with the Dark clan or the evil ones, the pirates who were bewitched by the light of Mara roar.

"The buds of fear, the seeds of pain, darkness, cover this land. The nightmare of death and the lament of rebirth, come, chant, and I will sacrifice with my blood and flesh."

The prayer of death echoed with Lucien's charge, and the light of Mara emitted a more dazzling light, and all weapons that touched it were instantly qiuized. Paladins danced their lightsabers in their hands in the crowd, killing no one, but removing only their weapons. The amazing heat caused all pirates to fear, and their eyes and hands were more or less burned or burned to varying degrees.

The terrified shouts spread around like a tide, and after a while, there were groans throughout the open space.

"It is really a rare scene when justice and evil join forces to defeat the enemy."

Lucien's gaze was turned around with a teasing tone, and he sensed one of the two powerful dark forces on the island. The dark-skinned elf leaned against the rock wall, wrapped his hands around his chest, and was looking at him with a very interested expression.

"Devil?" Although he looks like a dark elves, his inner power cannot deceive the church knights with holy power. This evil aura and pure darkness are not something that ordinary dark elves can possess.

"For the first time we meet, Lord Paladin." What surprised Lucien was that Klein actually gave him a noble ceremony: "In Klein Zaire, Victor's friend."

Is it him... Victor sent to the dark elves inside the pirates?

Lucien tightened his hand holding the sword, and was very angry that his brother had actually concealed the origin of this so-called friend.

A newly degenerate lich and a demon with dark elf blood must be conspiring for some evil purpose.

"High Priest?" Seeing Neli pulling out the flying dragon with both feet, Rebek felt bad. Would she give up on herself and these men?

There are only two enemies. Even if they are Paladins, even if they have her help, even if the blood-colored mercenaries don’t take action, there is still hope. After being in business for so long, they can’t give up just because of two inexplicable invaders.

"I agreed at the beginning that I am helping you gain a foothold in this sea area. Whenever you are in danger, you will immediately pull your hands."

"But they only have two people..." The chief did not count Klein. Although his position was unknown, the dark elf seemed to have no intention of fighting.

"I'm not stupid enough to be enemies with three holy holders with divine favors at the same time. Rebek, you can choose any one of the deaths or suicides in battle. You know the rules. Once you reveal secrets that should not be revealed, the secret curse on your body will take effect immediately." The flying dragon flapped its wings and took off from the black rock. It soon turned into a small black dot in everyone's sight, leaving a group of stunned pirates.

Without the protection of the sacrifice, the dark power that originally surrounded the entire island collapsed in an instant. Many pirates who rely on their belief in the demons and gained special powers found that they were defeated back to their prototype. Not only did their strength be reduced, but their continuous abundant physical strength also disappeared without a trace, making them unable to fight against Lucien, who held the light of Mara.

"Damn..." Although there was a deal, Rebek did not expect the female priest to leave as soon as he said that. He turned around and looked at the paladin with a serious face, his thoughts rose and fell, and finally turned into a loud shout.

He pulled out the sword from his waist and would rather die in battle than be captured cowardly.

Seeing the hint of Klein's eyes, Victor, who had been standing still, suddenly teleported, blocking Lucien's face, and with magical fingers touched Rebek's body one step ahead of the light of Mara.

"This guy can't be killed, it's useful to keep him."

The body was suddenly paralyzed, and the leader who slowly fell to the ground was unwilling to be cursed.

Damn... If most pirates either obey orders and stand by nearby islands, or collect intelligence and recruit members, how could the high priest not even give him a chance to fight...

If I had known this, I wouldn't believe that woman, and I would gain power by believing in the demon god. In this case, how could he be willing to lose the whole game in such a ridiculous way?

"Celesto never gives refuge to believers. You should have heard her say when accepting Nellie's invitation. It means that your way of gaining power is not liked by the demon." It is not difficult to guess what he is thinking now from Rebeck's expression.

Another idiot who thought that as long as you believe, you can get everything unconditionally.

God is also very picky about sacrifices and believers.

Even if you bleed and trampled on others' lives, if you cannot win the favor of Celesto, you will still not be able to gain power.

"Don't think that discovering the pirate's nest can completely eradicate them. The Alfonso people in the North have long been used to this kind of life without a fixed place. Robbery, killing and even become their dogma. Don't forget the origin of the word "Sea of ​​Blood" and the seas stained with blood. If you want to completely cure pirates, you must start with war and politics. When will Alfonso be incorporated into the territory of the South Land to stop the endless war with pirates." Klein's words made Lucien look at him a few more times.

Unexpectedly, this dark clan, who was full of evil spirits, had such an opinion. What he had come into contact with in the past was either a fighting maniac or a fanatical religious figure.

It seems that he must reexamine Victor's purpose, which is definitely not the so-called pursuit of the ultimate spell.
