Chapter 66 The Cunning Demon King
Because the tavern was relatively noisy, only Mora heard what Sirius just said.
To the tavern owner, Sirius just moved his lips and said some nonsense that he didn't understand like a drunkard. Although from the outside it looked like the handsome young man had not been drinking.
"Boss, 20 silver coins, right? I'll pay."
Well, this time he understood. It turned out to be a fool.
20 silver coins is actually not too much, if you just use it for drinking.
However, as the boss, he would naturally not stop Sirius from paying for the drink for that silly girl, and from the look in the girl's eyes towards Sirius, he vaguely guessed that the two of them might have known each other before, and it was probably just the right time today. It's just a matter of helping out.
It's just that this girl's eyes have a kind of fierce and fierce look. Could it be that... this boy is her brother, and he came here today to catch this rebellious girl who ran away from home and took her home?
Since this is the case, he has no reason to stop it.
"By the way, boss, how is the business of your tavern?" Sirius, after paying the money, also directly stated his purpose today, "I heard you just said, boss... is the rent getting more and more expensive?" "
Yes... "
The tavern owner shook his head helplessly. Judging from his appearance, it was indeed because of these objective facts that he raised the price of drinks. "I don't know what's wrong with the people in this city. They are immersed in false prosperity all day long. Among them, it is obvious that everyone's life has not improved much, but prices have skyrocketed...
When the Lizardmen come again, I think all these people will break through the defense on the spot." "
Maybe it's because everyone thinks that their lives will be different in the future. It will get better and better, and the victory in the last war also gave them plenty of confidence."
Moura on the side stopped looking at Sirius, and then interjected calmly.
"It's getting better and better? I can't see it. Isn't it just that I had better luck in that war and suddenly encountered a phenomenon that is rare to see once in a hundred years? I really hope that such good things will happen every day..."
The boss took a look Mo La, seeing that she didn't seem to be talking drunkenly, responded to her question politely.
"I even feel that the people in the church have been brainwashed by these people. Tiantian thinks that the God of Light..."
"Shh~"
Mo La made a silencing gesture, signaling the boss not to continue, "You can't do this You should speak ill of the church and the God of Light at this time, otherwise a member of the church might listen to it, and the boss would never want to open this tavern~" "
Forget it, then I really have nothing to say. . How about you ask me again what I think of the church, and I will definitely praise it this time."
"Um..."
When the three of them were chatting and joking, Sirius glanced at the man with his speaking style and age. The girl's voice and other things were a bit inconsistent, and then she could clearly see the other person's appearance through the dim light.
how to say? After seeing clearly this cute baby's fat face, the sense of disobedience in his heart became deeper and deeper.
But what made Sirius feel even more weird was that it seemed that from the first words he said when he entered the door, the other party looked at him with a lot of complicated meanings.
After all, he had seen many people who gave him similar feelings, so he could understand that this was not a friendly look. What was revealed was not only surprise, but also some personal malice directed at him.
But the problem is, you don’t know the other party either?
"Miss, do I know you?"
After calling the housekeeper Jia'an and asking him to discuss buying the shop with the tavern owner alone, Sirius took the opportunity when no one was around, picked up the wine glass and said calmly He asked the girl.
As soon as he said these words, Sirius could clearly feel the girl's body trembling and shaking with the wine in his glass.
"Sorry... I don't understand what you are talking about."
The doubts in Sirius's heart deepened, and without waiting for what he was saying, the girl actually stood up and said the last sentence:
"Thank you for helping me. Pay for the drink and I'll pay it back next time."
After saying that, as if he was resisting continuing the conversation with himself, he stood up and walked towards the door of the pub, and even accidentally bumped into a pillar because he was walking in a hurry.
This girl... looks so weird.
But he couldn't rush to ask so recklessly, so he could only turn his body back to the bar and continue to drink slowly alone and eat some snacks to go with the wine.
Speaking of which, Sirius has been having a question lately. With the help of alcohol, he also began to think about this issue that he had not thought about carefully before.
He and Nalia returned to the imperial city. Although his poor mother died in the end, his resurrection ability was indeed activated anyway.
This is certainly undeniable, so it is also undeniable that the side effect of the button will definitely kill a person whose name he does not know in this world.
At this moment, Sirius was not only curious about who this person was, but also found it very puzzling about the phrase in the side effect, "The children of the deceased will definitely remember you as the murderer."
Thinking that everyone is dead, is it possible that the corpse will still tell others who killed him? That's nonsense...but has the button ever lied? Except for the fact that sometimes the judgment rules make him confused, it seems that there are really no big bugs in the buttons.
Sirius rubbed his head. Unable to think clearly about these issues, he could only pick up the wine glass again and drink this low-quality beer, whose taste and purity were completely inferior to those in his previous life.
"Lord Sirius, I have already negotiated with the boss."
When Sirius, who was not used to drinking these drinks, stood up and was about to go out for some air, Ryan and the boss walked in through the back door of the pub.
"You don't need to tell me these things, you can just handle them yourself."
Sirius waved his hand, not intending to get too involved in these troublesome matters.
For him, what he wants to do most now is to leave this noisy environment. He who prefers quietness really doesn't like places where so many people sit together and shout loudly.
But just when he left the tavern and walked around to the back of the alley, ready to be alone for a while, a voice that was not clearly male or female came from the direction above him, as if he was talking to himself:
" You really still hate these places with a lot of humans..."
"...What?"
Sirius turned his head, only to see a black shadow standing on the roof talking to him.
But before he could say anything, Sirius noticed that the figure jumped directly from the eaves, and then landed on the ground as if wrapped in flames.
He couldn't see the man's face clearly because he was wearing a black robe and a funny bunny mask that didn't fit his overall temperament.
But Sirius knew that this man must have a grudge against him, because he could feel the ground under his feet was a little hot.
Even everything around him seemed to be constantly changing, and he seemed to be pulled into a different dimension in an instant by this person with unimaginable strength.
In this somewhat twisted world, purple flames spread from around the mysterious man's body, sweeping towards him from all directions like a snake, as if to wrap him up in it and then strangle him.
But Sirius wasn't panicking at all at the moment. After all, in this alien space with no one else around, there was no reason why he would lose to anyone after triggering the 50/50 ability. So when the two fought for a long time, and every attack from the other side was neutralized by Sirius, the mysterious man finally gave up and looked at him with almost despair.
"I...can't beat you."
"Can you tell me your purpose?" Sirius crossed his arms and saw that the person opposite didn't want to speak, so he asked tentatively again, "If it's because of your dead relatives... I'm sorry.
Although I know you may not believe these words, I really want to tell you that his death has nothing to do with me." "It has nothing to do
with you? Do you want to lose face... If it weren't for you, he wouldn't do it at all. Die!"
Under the mask, Mora looked at Sirius with mocking eyes, as if she had heard a huge joke.
But so what? He couldn't beat the Demon King... It was impossible for him to beat him from the beginning.
She actually hoped that she had recognized the wrong person. After all, it was not just the Demon King at that time who knew the demon language and used words that were almost the same as when she was still living in the demon clan more than 100 years ago.
What's more, everyone knows that the Demon King is already dead...
The story of the brave man has become a legend, let alone the Demon King who is a has-been villain in the human kingdom?
Mora has been away from the demon clan for too long. She knows what the demon clan has been brewing for these years. She also knows that a guy like herself who has abandoned her own race and completely turned herself into a human will definitely not have a good ending. .
But she never thought that what she met this time would really be the demon king who killed her father more than a hundred years ago - Ramos.
Only he would recognize himself and then use the demon language to make himself confused.
Only when she couldn't help but test whether he was coming to Anka to capture her fellow demons, he used a few words to provoke things that she didn't want to remember.
When it came to this, there was no point in hiding it anymore...
Mo La took off the rabbit mask that she bought for herself at the downtown market with great joy during the festival, and then hugged it like a treasure. In her arms, she then shook her head and threw off the hood on her head, revealing her long, jet-black hair.
Of course, she would never give up all her disguises and show off her demonic horns, because she really didn't want to admit that she was a member of that dirty race that only wanted to destroy, separate, and abandon everything.
Now she can be a nun in white silk stockings who wears a nun's uniform every day and is in a daze, or she can be a fun-loving person who reveals her true nature after get off work and just wants to take money and be happy.
In short, she hopes that she can be regarded as a human being, not a witch who is spurned by human society.
"So it's you."
"Yes, it's me...are you surprised to see me? Ramos." "
Ramos?"
Sirius frowned, then shook his head in denial, "I'm not Ramos. , my name is Sirius, it has always been."
"Really..."
There seemed to be a hint of joking in Moura's eyes, but she soon became relieved, "Kill me, just like when you killed me It's the same as my father." As soon as
these words came out, Sirius completely confirmed that the girl in front of him was the child of the person who was persecuted to death when he resurrected the empress.
But there was one thing that made Sirius feel very strange. Where did this terrifyingly powerful girl in front of him come from?
Could it be that people like Engli are just junior bosses in the Novice Village, and is this girl in front of me, whose attainments in magic are beyond comprehension, the norm in this crisis-ridden world?
Wait, Sirius suddenly thought of his settings about the demons.
She has a talent for magic that goes beyond understanding, and there is no need to chant... So there is a high probability that the girl in front of her is actually a demon.
Unlike himself, who was treated as a demon spy by stupid Jim because of the effects of the buttons, the seemingly weak and helpless girl standing in front of him at the moment, with a somewhat cute appearance, was a real demon.
No, I can't afford to offend this kind of person... He must find a way to make the other person give up the idea of revenge against him today.
"I won't kill you."
Sirius' face was calm, making it difficult to tell what he was thinking. At this moment, he looked at Mo La with a condescending look in his eyes, "Since you insist on thinking that I killed your father, so I have nothing to say.
But I hope you can recognize the reality, that is, your father is dead. This is absolutely impossible to change. I will not repent hypocritically. I won’t let you choose to forgive.
Even if you hate me, after all, your hatred will only make me feel ridiculous.
You can’t beat me, and you can’t kill me, unless you give up everything in hatred and want to expose your identity to everyone. , but even then, I still have the ability to drag all mankind, including you, to be buried together.
Believe me, your revenge is destined to be just a farce. So do what you should do in the future, and don’t waste time on meaningless and valueless things. Matters."
There is indeed nothing wrong with this...
If the witch in front of him really wants to attack him in front of everyone and make his 100% equal skill useless, then he will definitely trigger the weather control ability before he dies, so that everyone in Anka, including the girl herself, will follow him Die together.
"You!"
Mo La's pupils dilated, and her hand holding the rabbit mask was slightly harder, but she was afraid of crushing the gift she gave to herself. In the end, she could only look at this hateful devil fiercely, hoping to use this A way to anger the other party, and then let Sirius kill him on the spot.
However, Mo La found that the angrier she seemed to be, the prouder the other party became.
From the beginning to the end, the Demon King, whose alias was Sirius, just stood there from a distance, without the slightest thought of executing himself, a traitor to the Demon Race.
Ramos is indeed the most arrogant and good at taking advantage of people's weaknesses. How could she, a useless witch who has been fishing for hundreds of years, be his opponent after resurrection?
The most offensive magic she had cast with all her strength did not harm the opponent at all. Such a sense of despair had long since made her temporarily give up the so-called revenge idea.
What's more, she has already fallen in love with this city. Many times when Anka is unable to resist the attacks of the lizard people, she will secretly help the human side.
The terrifying demon king had already penetrated all her thoughts and easily captured her lifeline.
"I understand... I will do what I should do."
After saying this, she fell to the ground, looking helpless.
The magic in the different space dissipated, along with Sirius, who was still there just now.
