No one cheered, only a gloomy mood. Every participant was silently collecting the bodies of their comrades. This is the territory of Lugnika, so these bodies do not need to be buried on the spot, and can wait for follow-up personnel to come and deal with them..

Compared to the sadness of Karsten and the knights of the Astraea family, the mercenaries of the 'Hexin Chamber of Commerce' appear much indifferent. For the mercenaries, they only work for money. Every mission Casualties are inevitable. As long as you are a mature mercenary, you will never be sad because of death, because you may be the next one to die.

"Lord Cursio... Lord Cursio……"

Felix, a young man with cat ears, sat slumped on the ground. There was no light in his eyes, only death-like darkness and silence. This time, the crusade against the Witch Cult was a complete victory. Most of the Witch Cults were wiped out, and the two The Archbishop of Sin who had left many bad names in history was defeated. It can be said that this was a disastrous defeat that had never happened since the establishment of the Witch Cult, and it was also a great victory that had never been achieved by any major country.

But for Felix, this war was a complete failure because his master, Crusch Karsten, who commanded this battle, was captured by the Witch Cult, which can be said to be a disaster. not enough.

The living people will get the honor they deserve after they go back, but the girl who should have received the greatest honor died here.

Felix is ​​hopeless.

He is an atavist, andThese mixed-races are not treated favorably by people in this world, and even his father hates him. Only Curio Karsten does not care about his bloodline, takes pity on his talent and accepts him as his knight. And gave Felix a lot of help on his way to becoming the 'Blue Magician'

"But I failed to protect Lord Kurxiu... It's all my fault, it's all my fault……"

Felix was crying loudly. Julius, the best knight on the side, wanted him to help the injured people. With his powerful"water magician" power, he would be able to save more people, but look After seeing Felix like this, Julius could only remain silent, unable to say anything unnecessary.

Natsuki Subaru looked at Felix who was slumped on the ground and almost lost his will. Looking at his eyes that had lost the meaning of life, he suddenly felt that this cat-eared knight had great use value.

Natsuki Subaru looked greedily at Felix in women's clothing, seeing that he looked no different from a woman, and looking at the pair of cute cat ears on his head, he felt a strange longing and desire inexplicably.

‘No, now is not the time to think about this. This time my strategy was a complete victory and I solved a difficult enemy. Then the next one is……’

This success gave Natsuki Subaru greater ambitions

……

In the Royal City of Lugnica, the crowds spontaneously came to both sides of the city gate to welcome the knights who returned in triumph. News of the victory against the Witch Cult had long since spread back to the city. The death of Curio Karsten made many Some people are sad, but many people are also happy. For ordinary people, the details of this war are what they are willing to talk about after dinner.

In the most luxurious and expensive hotel in the royal city, Anastasia Hessing listened to the reports from her men. The best knight Julius and the leader of the mercenary group told Anastasia all the details of the battle in detail.

"Was Curio killed in battle? This is really sad news."

Anastasia Hesing felt sad for a while, but soon she was filled with joy in her heart. Crusch was killed in battle, and Priscilla gave up. This means that half of the candidates selected by the king have been eliminated, and the remaining people Among them, Anastasia is undoubtedly the one with the highest winning rate, especially this time against the Witch Cult. The glory that should have been shared with Curio, but with the death of Curio, all went to Anastasia alone.

"Mimi, Ricardo, you did a good job this time. Regarding the remuneration of the mercenaries, I will double it, and I will also give double the pension to the mercenaries who died in the war!"

Anastasia Hexin, who was in a good mood, waved her hand and started to spread the money generously.

"Ha ha! Thank you so much, sir!"

The werewolf-like orc laughed loudly. Although Anastasia is greedy for money, she is very generous to her subordinates. This is why many people are loyal to her and are willing to fight behind her.

At this moment Suddenly, there was the sound of uniform footsteps and the panic and noise of the crowd fleeing from outside. Just listening to this uniform sound, one could tell that it must be an extremely powerful knights. Ricardo's expression tightened, and he came quickly. When I went to the window and looked out, I saw hundreds of knights in armor surrounding the hotel.

"what happened? Why are Lugnika's Knights Guard here?"

It's no wonder that the leader of this iron-blooded mercenary group is nervous. The Kingdom Knights can be said to be Lugnica's strongest spear and shield. It is this powerful fighting group that protects this country and is what makes the aggressive Flaky The sub-empire has not been able to enter Lugnika's territory for hundreds of years.

Even when the mercenary group was at its strongest, as mercenaries they did not dare to fight against Lugnika's strongest military group, let alone now. This mercenary group is on the verge of collapse in the fight with the Witch Cult and is in urgent need of blood replenishment.

"Ricardo, be quiet! Since the knights are here, nothing should happen."

Anastasia said comfortingly. In fact, she was quite uneasy in her heart. Suddenly hundreds of knights appeared here. Seeing their serious attitude, they seemed to want to catch the criminal. How could this not make Anastasia think too much?

"What happened? Mobilizing so many knights is a right that only the Wise Men have. Why didn't I know anything before?"

The best knight Julius looked at the members of the Knights outside the window. Those were his colleagues, and doubts arose in his heart.

Soon, they knew the reason why the Knights came here.

"Lady Anastasia Hesing, someone reported that you had conspired with Lord Cursch Karsten to rebel, and the evidence is conclusive. The Sage Council has issued the most wanted order, and we hope you can come with us."

A knight in his forties walked into the room. He announced coldly that this strong knight was the leader of the kingdom's knights, and all the knights of Lugnica were under his control.

"Sir, have you misunderstood something?"

The best knight Julius took a step forward and said anxiously.

The knight leader just looked at Julius with a disappointed face and said heartbrokenly:"……Julius, you are called the best knight, but you are also guilty of treason. If you still think you are a knight, then take off the sword from your waist and follow me back to listen to the trial!"

Julius opened his mouth, his mind full of confusion, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just silently took off his sword and knelt on the ground on one knee.

He is the eldest son of the Euclidean family and also a member of the family. For a noble of the kingdom, rebellion is not a trivial matter. If he resists even a little bit, he may bring disaster to the family.

The orc mercenaries around Anastasia tightened their weapons. Seeing this The knight leader said coldly:"……I advise you not to resist stubbornly. This place has been surrounded by the Guards Knights. It is the best choice to put down your weapons now. Otherwise, if there are casualties or Lady Anastasia Hessin dies here, don't blame us."

The mercenaries did not listen to the words of the knight leader, but collectively looked at Anastasia.

The president of the Chamber of Commerce from the Kalalaki city-state sighed and said:"……Put down your weapons, resistance will only cause unnecessary casualties... Captain, can you tell me who reported it and submitted the evidence?"

"……Forget it, I guess you won’t tell me, but I guessed it, it should be the man named Natsuki Subaru."

The captain of the knights did not speak, but silence was acquiescence.

Hearing Anastasia's words, the best knight's eyes widened. That was a friend who had a good relationship with him. Why did he betray everyone?

No. , No, I didn't rebel!

The best knight's face was full of anxiety, he only felt that society was sinister, and he was completely played by others.
