Chapter 557 (1/2)
After leaving the ship without any living people, little Yod turned and left without looking back, and went north along the river bank to eboden; Loren went south to Bain and went to red blood castle.
When they said goodbye, they had a tacit understanding and didn't say a word; The dark haired wizard with a smile watched little Joad leave and got a pair of eyes that gouged out his heart and bones like a sharp blade and looked at the wolf.
You don't have to think about it... He hates himself completely.
But it doesn't matter. What Lauren needs this time is not friends, but running dogs and chess pieces that can be used. He doesn't really care about the life and death of little Joad;
Even if he died, there was only one trouble that would threaten him. He wanted to clean up the giant Yoder chamber of Commerce... Loren had plenty of ways, not him.
What's more, it's not Loren who is really worried at the moment, but little Joad - in less than a month, governor Bain will receive the news that his people have died on the gem River; If he can't convince eboden and get their shelter, little Yod will be dead!
It doesn't matter if he dares to escape. The nine pointed star Holy Grail is on this guy... Little Joad is not a wizard and doesn't know how to use the Holy Grail. This thing is not a treasure but a disaster to him; As long as Loren told master corona the news of the Holy Grail on him, he didn't have to do it himself. Naturally, someone would go after him.
Governor Byrne and eboden - before these two forces are really ready to kill him, little Yod must go to eboden and try his best to win the trust of the corona family and the nine pointed star wizard tower, betraying the family and becoming the first running dog to destroy Yod's chamber of Commerce.
Little Joad... The shackles on his neck have been tightly held in his hands. No matter how he barks, he won't dare to touch a cold hair again.
Yes, he's just a biting dog... He has enough friends and doesn't need any more.
Ayn Rand, Isaac Grantham, Elven war dancer Leia, night watchman Edward, Lucian, little priest Weber, Brandon de saleon
Every more friend is a responsibility and commitment... Lauren thinks he can't bear more commitments. All he needs now is a running dog willing to lie under his feet and do things for himself.
Shaking his head, the dark haired wizard turned around with a smile; Asriel, dressed in a red and black dress, stood in front of him, put his hands on his chest, widened his eyes, puffed his cheeks and looked at him angrily.
”What are you doing?” Lauren couldn't understand the boy's behavior at all.
”I'm angry!”
Asriel made it clear for the first time that he was unhappy and naturally supported his small chest: ”in the past, Asriel could accept whatever Loren said, but this time... It turns out that Asriel is not your friend in Loren's heart!”
”...” Loren Turin.
”It's too much. Are there any closer friends in the world than us?!”
”... how boring are you?”
Resisting the urge to roll his eyes, Lauren, who couldn't stand the harassment of teenagers, pointed to him: ”besides, isn't there an ellipsis in that sentence? And... You eavesdropped again.”
”How can you give such an important thing as the nine pointed star holy grail to that bad man?”
After switching the topic without embarrassment for a second, Asriel suddenly became a polite and clever boy, with a considerate smile on his mouth: ”even if he didn't dare... Wouldn't it be very dangerous to be found by the Holy Cross Church?”
”If I can give him something, it means I'm sure I'll get it back.” Lauren glanced at him. ”And if he's really stupid enough... I'll have less trouble.”
Without the help of the wizard, even if the church caught little Joad, it could not get the nine pointed star Holy Grail from his body. On the contrary, it would bring disaster to the East, making Joad's chamber of Commerce stand in the camp opposite to the church.
Of course, Loren also believes that there are many wizard running dogs in the hands of the church. Like little priest Weber, there are priests who sympathize with wizards... But wizards who can reach the level of master corona and turn the Holy Grail from Ancient Runes into physical objects can never join the church!
In fact, these are not the key. The key point is... No matter who holds the nine pointed star Holy Grail, it can not be obtained by Asriel.
The last time Ariel unexpectedly became a vampire, which finally made Asriel lose the chance to get the nine pointed star Holy Grail... From that day on, he has been trying every means to get another ”nine pointed star Holy Grail”.
Loren also believes that Asriel and Ariel are not completely honest about the nine pointed star grail and valve - or for some reason, they can't tell themselves the truth.
