Chapter 23 (1/2)
Law of the Devil – 023 – Pitiful Vivian Young
A e, an apparently atsorceress, a so nervous and tense when speaking it was like a young lady fro out into the world for the first tiician
And most importantly, she stuttered
The people around couldn’t help staring wide eyed Looking at this furiously blushi+ng girl, big eyes close to overfloith tears, everyone seemed to subconsciously lower the swords in their hands
This girl didn’t appear to be any threat
Even Duwei stared…… This stuttering girl, with an expression as tiician?
But this robe, and still that badge, neither could be faked! Duwei knew that all such badges issued by the eries
Coughing, Duwei couldn’t refrain frooblin soirl:
“Distinguished s to you?”
“Ye…… Ah n-n~~no” The girl finally started crying, tears unexpectedly flowing from her eyelids: “This is my m-m-master’s C-can’t you re-re-return it to me……”
Return it?
Duwei really didn’t want to return it!
Why? This little creature had ruthlessly attacked his people, leaving everyone battered and exhausted, Duas really of a , and afterwards do like Thorskei said and take out its horn
But, looking at this sorceress co it back…… With the kind of person this was, could he really shamelessly do it?
If he wanted to act shaician!
Despite this girls apparently very weak appearance
“This…… Esteeician, please…… please don’t worry” Duas patient, even soa little girl: “If this little creature really is yours……”
“O-o-o-of course!” The sorceress seemed to hear what she hoped for andat Duith a hopeful expression Those two innocent big eyes were inco expression froirl, really didn’t let people lower their intentions
“Don’t worry” Duwei slowly said: “Even if this little creature is yours, as its owner, I think you should take responsibility for the mistakes it committed, no?”
The sorceress’ expression turned flustered, and she very timidly looked at Duwei:
“M-may I a-a-a-ask……”
“This little creature, is it a high level ic beast’s owner, you didn’t properly look after it, letting it run off to the hinterlands of the imperial south! Don’t tellall over would cause for the people in this region!”
Looking at his young ician, Thorskei to the side really wanted to laugh, but didn’t dare to
Because…… That was an arche!
Looking at the badge pinned to the girl’s chest, Thorskei sed resolutely After all, the greatest dreaician like Thorskei was to one day advance in rank, putting on such a golden badge!
“Ah……Th-th-th-this……” The sorceress’ face showed a guilty expression, hanging her head: “M-e of l-looking after Squeaky, b-b-but it t-took advantage ofto s-seefor it for v-very m-m-many days”
“Your mistake cannot becohteously and sternly: “Don’t you knooff to this serene little toould cause for the residents here? These brave soldiers all came up to this mountain in order to catch it! Moreover, don’t you kno much harm this little pet of yours just now caused to these brave soldiers!”
“……” The sorceress was speechless, she only looked at Duith that guilty and iaze
Duwei’sat this sorceress as perhaps a young lady who had never left horeenhouse flower
“This creature brought panic to the region! The soldiers bled, sweated, to catch it here, in order to protect the peace of this region! But you have come to take it away, may I ask with such a method, is there not a trace of shame in your heart?”
As Duwei spoke, the sorceress’ head hung practically to her stomach
When Duwei finally was finished, the sorceress roused her courage, cautiously speaking up: “I-I-I-I want to apologize t-t-to you f-for i-it’s actions…… I-I-I’m very……”
“Stop your apologies!” Duas unforgiving: “If apologies were of use, would there still be need for police?”
“P-police…… W-what’s that?”
Duwei coughed, covering up his aardness That was a slip of the tongue just now, this world didn’t have things like police officers
“What I mean is……” Duwei stuck out his chest, his voice loud: “Don’t tell h to compensate the blood and sweat of our brave soldiers?”
His words were actually soirl
These search parties that entered the mountain actually hadn’t shed any blood, the scene of flesh and blood flying in that battle just noas all an illusion After eli the illusion, everyone were actually just confused, they hadn’t suffered any injuries, atIt wasn’t a big loss
The only injury was that of the lady knight Rolynn
Duwei naturally wouldn’t waste the chance to e the lady knight supported by his subordinates behind him
Rolynn’s con of poor health from sudden blood loss, but overall there wasn’tthere unsteadily, hand still wrapped in white bandages, hair in disorder, still really uilty
“How can I-I-I c-compensate you?” The sorceress’ eyes were reddened
Duwei drew a breath, a satisfied light flashi+ng in his eyes, then looked at Thorskei to his side Over this past ti about alche about the tenal he ihtly saluting, he slowly said: “Respected arche”
When the girl saw Thorskei’s esture: “M-Mister ician”
At this instant, Thorskei couldn’t keep fro somewhat…… In his entire life he had perhaps never even dreaician address hiician”
“This, I think, this little pet of yours has already caused harion, if was simply released, perhaps these soldiers who have suffered would be unable to accept it, further fa ht in this matter today, therefore, I think, some punishment for this little creature is in order”
