Devil's Bible

Chapter 210 Hero's Companion

Faced with the sudden appearance of the person, Zuowen saw the knife at the other person's waist and the other person's strong muscles, and determined that the other person might have extraordinary power, so he chose to hold back for the time being.

After the vicious man and the old woman bird chatted for a while, the old woman bird left because she had to fetch water.

The vicious man offered to help several times, but Granny Bird refused each time.

After the old woman left, the man looked at Zuowen, and the smile on his face quickly disappeared.

"Lillian's little brat?" These words made Zovin quickly assume a fighting stance, looking at the man warily.

"Don't be so wary. I'm just here to say a few words and advise you to leave quickly." The man looked at Zovin with a serious expression.

"What do you want to say?!" Zovin was trembling all over, and the thought of fighting to the death with Nemus's lackeys even rose in his mind.

"When Grandma Bird was young, she had a husband and children. Her husband was a mule, which meant he was a smuggler who transported goods in smuggling." The man, however, did not see this scene and then began to talk about Grandma Bird on his own.

"My husband made a mistake while delivering something and was punished by his superiors. He was stabbed several times and dumped on the roadside. He bled to death and no one cared. Because of my husband's work, my mother-in-law was arrested and questioned. She had her leg broken. My child was so scared that he hid in the closet at home and starved to death."

"The old woman with a broken leg was abandoned on the street, but she was lucky enough to survive. She survived and one day she saw a child bleeding and unconscious on the roadside near her home. She picked him up and treated him."

"She gave her last ration of food to the child so that the child could live."

"At that time, a new bishop took office, and the church arranged a large-scale sermon, which is why the old bird survived."

"After that, Granny Bird put aside her grudges and began to do her best to help those who had nowhere else to turn, whether they were gang members or ordinary people who had lost their families and were destitute."

"Grandma Bird did not die because of this unconditional dedication."

"Because most of the people he saved were standing behind her," the man said earnestly.

"What exactly are you trying to say?" Zovin was getting impatient; his hatred for Nemus was preventing him from thinking rationally.

“Grandma Bird’s husband, you’re familiar with his father’s name, Xibin Lillian, yes, that’s your father!” The man’s words made Zovin stand up instantly.

A surge of anger at his father being falsely accused drove Zuowen to rush toward the man.

The next moment, phantom images of wild beasts appeared on the man's body. These phantom images jumped out of him and pressed down on Zovin.

Zuowen tried to struggle, but found that he couldn't do it at all.

Lillian did not summon the spirit of history to empower him, and the little giant Mello had already left.

Without Lillian's help, Zovin is just an ordinary Black Stone species with a stat of just eight.

"By the way, I was the first child rescued back then."

"A loser who survived the struggles of the Northern District aristocracy, remember my name: Anse Kevin."

"Whether you believe it or not, I urge you to leave here as soon as possible and not bring any trouble upon yourself."

"After all, you're already on the church's wanted list."

"If it weren't for Granny Bird saving you, I would have taken you to claim the reward long ago."

"If you, this little brat from the Lillian family, hurt Granny Bird again, I will definitely kill you."

Having said all this, Anse manipulated the animal spirits and released Zovin.

After giving Zuowen a fierce glare, his smile returned.

He walked out of the room, and after a while he heard Anse talking to the old woman bird, as well as the sound of Anse helping to pour water from the bucket into the water tank.

Zuo Wen got up somewhat awkwardly, his mind a complete mess.

From the moment Anse released him, the other party could no longer be Nems's subordinate. So what he was talking about...

"Heroes cannot choose their origins. Many heroes are born with sins in their blood, but in the process, they confront their own existence and overcome the problems that come with their origins!" Lillian's epic chanting brought Zovin to his senses somewhat.

"Lillian, why didn't you help me before?" Zovin couldn't help but ask. He had been beaten up and let off the hook, but he had no confidence to refute what Anse had said.

"Because the wheels of history have begun to turn, and the hero's companions are gathering around him."

Although the tone was strange, Zovin still understood what Lillian meant.

"You mean that Anse from earlier?" Zovin's face was full of disbelief, but at the same time, he had to start thinking about everything Anse had said.

Zuowen wasn't too clear about his father's smuggling activities. He usually didn't need to concern himself with family matters. He only knew that his family had some businesses, but there was a high probability that such a thing was true.

He had never thought about these things before.

However, as he entered the South District today, his values ​​have undergone several updates.

Now, he has to start thinking.

Is my home really clean?
If Grandma Bird is truly a good person, then her words are much more credible.

If that's the case, then Nems...

Zuowen's mind was in turmoil.

"Anse isn't targeting you, is she?" Granny Bird's question made Zovin shake his head with a complicated expression.

Having shed his intense hatred for Nemus, he once again sensed the genuine kindness in Granny Bird.

At this moment, Zovin was unsure of what he should do.

His own family was the villain, while Nemes did good things for these lower-class people.

"So, is it just for me to take revenge on Niall?"

"Am I even capable of becoming a hero?" Zovin began to doubt himself.

After all, from the very beginning, his desire to become a hero, starting with his escape from Nemes' control, had a major problem.

He unilaterally broke his contract with Nems and ran away, disregarding his family's situation.

The tragic deaths of his family members are largely due to him.

Grandma Bird herself was not the problem; in fact, she was a victim who suffered because of her family.

He felt a murderous intent rising in his heart, and blindly wanted to kill her.

"Don't be embarrassed." Grandma Bird didn't know much; she was just comforting this confused person.

“Anse was just worried about me and acted impulsively; he’s not a bad person.”

"He has protected me all these years, which is why I have survived." Granny Bird could tell that Anse was hostile towards Zovin.

They also knew that it was probably because Zuowen's identity was not simple and might bring trouble.

Looking at Granny Bird, Zuowen could sense the calmness in her heart, which was completely different from his own.

So he began to wonder, how could Granny Bird, who had suffered so much her whole life, be able to remain calm?
