The Devil Inside

Even Rachel, who was watching everything, took a moment to understand the essence of it.

It was also at this moment that——

The imprint in the body was changing dramatically. The transformation progress of the "Seal of Void" was greatly accelerated and was close to taking shape.

The pervasive black fog dissipated, and the powerless tentacles of Chala were left there, as if they were dead.

Brandon looked at the girl in front of him, feeling only despair.

He is weak and frail, and signs of defeat are already apparent.

"Moment, illusion, withering and flourishing. Rachel, the Seal of Void has been condensed, but you still need a lot of time to adapt to it. You are a diligent person, this is your strength."

The Flower Sword Saint held the sword horizontally, her brows lowered slightly, not paying any attention to her opponent, she was just talking to Rachel.

Brandon wished the other party would treat him as if he didn't exist!

Unfortunately, this is not possible.

He struggled to stand up and spoke in a gentle and muddy voice: "Madam, if there is anything, we can discuss it. I don't think there is any need for us to fight."

The Flower Sword Saint sneered and strode towards him.

"Sir, that should be enough!"

The air became very sticky, and my steps were hindered.

The Flower Sword Saint paused for a moment, then tilted his head and looked towards the windowsill.

A burly man jumped down from the windowsill.

He was wearing a pure white military uniform, had brown hair and brown eyes, and his brows were firm.

Just a glance.

The Flower Sword Saint could tell that this person was extremely powerful and should not be underestimated: "Who are you?"

"Lorenzo."

the man answered.

"——I don't know you. Do you have a better name?"

Actually know each other.

Today during the day, Rachel saw Lorenzo on the playground in her room. His temperament was very outstanding and easy to remember.

"I'm afraid I'll disappoint you. I'm just a warrior, without any reputation."

Lorenzo answered calmly, neither humble nor arrogant.

At dinner today, Isabella once again persuaded Lorenzo to join her team.

Try to become a Laila teammate.

But Lorenzo refused no matter how hard he tried.

no way.

Isabella had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and asked him to help her get a big ship, preferably one that could accommodate three to five hundred people, as she wanted to go out to sea to hunt sea monsters.

Lorenzo was dumbfounded.

A ship with three to five hundred people on it must be a warship. Where can he get a warship?

Even if the number of people was reduced to 30 or 50, it was not an ordinary fishing boat. Lorenzo had no choice but to bring her to Brandon, the fishing tyrant who had several large boats and might be able to satisfy Isabella's amazing appetite.

I didn't expect to see this scene as soon as I arrived.

Lorenzo remained calm and continued, "I know what Brandon Seaclaw did. I can also guess why you killed him. But---"--Miss, you should act within the framework of the 'Code'. If everyone is like you, acting only on blood and courage, then society will be in chaos. "

The Flower Sword Saint didn't buy it: "You want to protect him?"

"..-I am just defending the dignity of the law."

Lorenzo felt a little guilty.

After all, he really came to borrow the boat.

"You're talking to me about the law, I just find it funny. If the law is really useful, people like him... The Flower Sword Saint pointed at Brandon and smiled, "Can he survive until now? I'm telling you straight, I must kill him today. If you are determined to protect him, then you will become my enemy."

"Why are you so persistent?"

"You need a reason, and I'll give it to you. Since entering this manor, I have killed all the engravers I saw, and the reason for their death was "aiding and abetting the evil." If you let me let this person go, let the main culprit go, I will become a clown. I'm afraid those who died at my hands can't bear it."

Lorenzo was pleased.

Unexpected reasons.

It sounds unorthodox, but it makes perfect sense if you think about it carefully, and it also has a weird sense of "fairness"

Although they all died at the hands of the Flower Sword Saint, His Excellency the Sword Saint would not let them down and would guarantee to give them and their boss a——

Equal death.

Lorenzo began to feel somewhat favorable toward the man before him, and said, "You seem to be a fair man."

The Flower Sword Saint said nothing, holding his sword, and walked towards Brandon with murderous intent.

“No, no—

First go to heaven, then go to hell.

The ups and downs of life came so quickly that Brandon was terrified. He leaned his back against the wall and looked at Lorenzo, shouting, "Lorenzo! Save me!"

Lorenzo just watched.

He saw the Flower Sword Master raise his sword and chop off Brandon's head cleanly.

Lorenzo remained calm. He looked at the Flower Sword Saint and asked, "Are you satisfied now?"

"what?"

The Flower Sword Master frowned.

Lorenzo looked disillusioned with the world. After a brief silence, he spoke: "You killed one Brandon, and there will soon be another one. The sins in this world are endless, and justice is pitifully rare, because doing evil is easy and the rewards are visible to the naked eye, while doing good is difficult and the benefits are meager.

“I think Brandon Seaclaw is good. Even though he is a heinous criminal, he is weak and easy to control.

"After I came, even though he was very dissatisfied in his heart, cursing me every day and hoping that I would die on the street, that was all. You can go and ask around. His reputation in the past ten years is pretty good. I think he has suppressed the breeding of evil to a certain extent."

The Flower Sword Saint heard it, but he was wrong.

After a moment, she sneered, "What a weird idea. It's really refreshing. You are a freak."

"A freak? Maybe! I want to ask, if the next 'Brandon' has all-powerful hands and eyes, and I can't suppress him, and he madly exploits the entire Fish Town, how will you deal with it?"

"I don't want to engage in a meaningless debate with you, kid."

The Flower Sword Master sheathed his sword and prepared to leave.

She finally said: "If the situation you described happens, and a lawless and omnipotent bully comes to Fish Town, then I am willing to discuss countermeasures with you. Because that is worth discussing.

In return, I would like to ask you a question. If you leave one day, will you kill Brandon?"

"Of course not. Restraining Brandon from doing evil is the best I can do. I am an officer of Elzlia, not Zethlia. I don't need to go to that extent."

Lorenzo replied with a smile.

"You have good intentions, but only a little."

The Flower Sword Saint turned and walked away. Lorenzo did not stop him, but just watched.

"Miss Rachel? Are you Miss--Rachel?"

Just at this moment, another person appeared at the door of the study and walked into the room leisurely.

This is a woman wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a black veil hanging down, covering her face.

She was wearing a black court dress, and her exposed neck was snow-white and extremely eye-catching.

This person is, of course, the former captain of the Imperial Vanguard, Ms. Isabella.

She looked at Rachel in surprise and immediately became energetic!

As someone who wanted to join Leila's team, how could she not know about the "Brave Gathering" a while ago?

Leila brought Rachel with her?

Many people speculated that Laila's audition was just a formality and that the winner had already been chosen by Rachel;

There are also many people looking for Rachel. In their opinion, as long as they try to join Rachel's team, they can benefit from her and be admitted directly.

Unexpectedly—

We met here!

Isabella stepped forward and asked, "Miss Rachel, what's going on? I've been walking all the way.

Saw a lot of dead bodies.”

The Flower Sword Saint did not recognize the person in front of him.

Since you are looking for Rachel, let Rachel come out and face it.

Just a thought and control of the body changed hands.

Rachel didn't react in time, and suddenly felt the pull of gravity. She took a step back and barely managed to steady herself.

Isabella saw the opportunity very quickly!

She reached out and supported Rachel: "Be careful."

“Thank you—”

Rachel was a little panicked when she was suddenly thrown into the body. Especially, Lorenzo and Isabella looked like they were not easy to mess with.

In order to better express her goodwill, Isabella took off her hat and revealed her face.

What a typical Elzliya.

Red eyes, big wavy blonde hair, and three-dimensional facial features like sculptures.

She looked to be around thirty years old, her eyes were full of wisdom, and the smile on her lips was sophisticated and friendly, giving people a sense of being knowledgeable and experienced. She was much more mature than the Black Mage and could easily win the trust of others.

Isabella looked at Lorenzo at the window and asked, "Enzo, what's going on?"

Lorenzo shook his head. "You're asking me what's going on? I also want to ask Miss Rachel what's going on. Brandon Seaclaw is a bully in Fish Town. His cultivation level is not high, but he is at level 15. Miss Rachel is only at level 10, so killing him is like killing a dog."

Rachel did it?

Including the dozen or so corpses we saw along the way?

OK OK.

Isn't this opportunity here?

Isabella laughed and said, "Sturgeon Town is ordinary, and most of the residents are poor. This Brandon has such a mansion and can hire so many vicious thugs. He must be a local bully who controls the fishery Enzo, am I right?"

"Not even a cent! As expected of you, Captain. This Brandon has done so many evil things."

Lorenzo saw through Isabella's thoughts and began to play supporting roles.

Isabella added, "Such a villain deserves death. Miss Rachel is indeed worthy of being Lady Leila's friend. She is indeed kind and righteous! On the other hand, someone is stationed here as an officer, but he condones the rampant evil. It is really shameful."

Lorenzo was speechless.

Who is this Rachel? It sounds like she is related to Leila?

He thought Isabella was overdoing it and was a bit shameless, fawning like that, and if someone didn't know her, they would think she was a minor character.

Actually?

This is the captain of the Imperial Vanguard. As a supervisory agency independent of the political and legal system, the Imperial Vanguard had a bad reputation for a long time. It was not until the headquarters was transformed that it gradually declined.

Isabella didn't come at a good time.

But her identity as "vanguard sergeant" still demonstrates her talent.

Rachel was confused.

This auntie in front of me——what does she mean?

Isabella asked again: "Ms. Rachel, are you here alone?"

"."

Rachel took a deep breath and regained her composure.
