Besides, given his extremely cautious nature, he probably still doubts even the authenticity of this holy sword, so how could he possibly agree to it...?
Chapter 1247 Sacrificial Ceremony? Are you sure this isn't a victory celebration?!
[The scene shifts, and it's evening. A sacred sword ceremony, prepared by Queen Riviera, is about to begin...]
[In the arena, numerous lizardmen moved about, accompanied by musicians playing cheerful tunes; the atmosphere was filled with laughter and joy.]
They sat around a table laden with delicious food, feasting with such joy that it seemed as if this were not a solemn ceremony concerning sacrifice and mission.
Rather, the whole scene resembled a lavish banquet...
"Don't worry, this is a ceremonial dinner prepared with heart by the villagers," Queen Liverie said with a smile, gesturing for the heroes to enjoy themselves.
"2 Jiuqi Liu Jiu (1) 厁V+I Li Yi Wait a minute, isn't this a bit off... Shouldn't the atmosphere be more somber? What's with this scene that looks like a victory celebration?!"
"Eruru is about to pay with her life for this so-called ritual, and these lizards are still happily feasting without a care in the world? They're a bunch of beasts."
As everyone watched the sacrificial ceremony on the screen, which resembled a victory celebration, they were truly enraged. Their faces were filled with anger and resentment!
What do these beasts value life? Just tools to gain honor for themselves?
Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid World
“Ahhhh——!!”
Thor was completely enraged. His eyes flashed with a blood-red light, and his mouth opened wide, revealing sharp, shark-like teeth.
"I simply can't stand it anymore! In what kind of world can these guys be allowed to act so recklessly?!"
She would barely call them sub-dragons if they had any horns on their heads, but these lizards didn't even have horns, let alone a bump on their heads.
It doesn't even have sharp teeth, and its face is shaped like a lizard's...
Heaven knows how painful it must be for a dragon to watch a bunch of lizards shamelessly call themselves dragons and hold a banquet with no restraint...
Most importantly, these lizards are using the name of the dragon race to do the things that proud dragons despise the most!
When did the glory of the dragon race have to be obtained by sacrificing children? This is simply a stain on the honor of the dragon race.
Thinking of all this, Thor trembled with anger. He rolled up his sleeves, rushed to the door, and turned back to Kobayashi: "I'm going out for a bit. I'll be right back."
"Wait……"
Kobayashi instinctively reached out his hand, only to see Thor's figure flash by, flying far away like a shooting star in the blink of an eye, leaving only a blurry afterimage.
"I'll go find Lucoa to see if there's a way to travel between worlds..." Thor's distant voice faintly drifted over.
Lucoa?
That world-class one?
Recalling the opponent's formidable fighting power, which was in some ways terrifying, Kobayashi silently withdrew his hand: "Thor seems to be quite angry."
"This Dragon's Lair contains a magic circle left by the first Dragon Emperor. If you jump in, your blood will be absorbed and become the Holy Sword!"
As the sacrificial ceremony officially began, Queen Riviera proclaimed loudly, her expression suggesting she was about to accomplish an incredibly great feat.
"Is this all there is to it?" Looking at the reactions around him, Matthew felt incredibly angry and utterly disappointed with this so-called land of dragons.
However, before Matthew could make a move, two burly lizard soldiers pounced on him like hungry wolves and pinned him to the ground.
[Levier silently observed Elulu's reaction above, a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Looks like she hasn't made a decision yet. Someone, help her push her down!"]
There was no pity in her tone, as if Eluru's life was merely a tool to achieve her goal.
"Wait..." Lysita was extremely anxious and hurriedly tried to dissuade the Queen from stopping: "Isn't this murder?!"
However, before she could finish speaking, she turned around and saw the incredibly fanatical faces of the lizard-like crowd below the stage.
Before he could finish speaking, he turned around and saw the incredibly fanatical faces of the lizard people, and heard their shouts.
Their eyes gleamed with madness as they repeatedly shouted, "Push her down!!!"
"This is something to celebrate—!!"
"This is a cult! This is definitely a cult! The honor they consider is even more despicable than I imagined."
"It's supposed to be an act to save the world, but it feels more like an act of some kind of dragon faith... This place is full of twisted monsters."
Seeing Queen Levier, who no longer even bothered to act, the people from other worlds were unusually calm this time, not angry, but rather pondering a question.
Is there really any need to save a world like this?
No wonder the Demon King's army conquered 70% of the world so quickly...
These dragons who guard the holy sword only cower in this remote corner, ridiculously defending the glory that they had long ago thrown to the ground and trampled upon.
It's important to understand that although there's only a one-word difference between "voluntary" and "forced to volunteer," they convey completely different meanings!
Just as the two soldiers were about to forcibly throw Elulu off the cliff, Seiya appeared behind them without them noticing and kicked both soldiers away.
"I've already said it, there's no need to repeat myself. Didn't I specifically explain it so you wouldn't understand...?" (Read thrilling novels on Feilu Novel Network!)
"You're here to carry my luggage, how am I supposed to carry it now that you've turned into a sword?"
[Eluru stared blankly at Seiya, for the first time she understood with absolute clarity what she wanted.]
What she wanted wasn't to be some tool for saving the world, nor some vague, unrealistic mission, but simply to be able to stay with Matthew and the others.
Even if I'm worthless in other people's eyes, even if all I do is carry their luggage day after day, as long as I can be a companion, stay by their side, and keep going, that's enough.
Ristarte looked worried: "But if Elulu doesn't become Igusosion, then this world will..."
"Haha, as expected, luggage is the most important thing. After all, with his attitude of preparing three copies of everything, there are definitely not enough backpack compartments."
"No, Goddess, what do you mean by that? You really want to sacrifice Elulu?!"
Everyone was baffled by this goddess of facial expressions' contradictory attitude. Did she want Elulu to sacrifice herself, or did she not want her to sacrifice herself...?
Bless the World
With a whoosh, as if an invisible force was drawing everyone's attention, they all subtly turned towards Aqua, who was hiding behind the sofa.
"This goddess seems to be sick." Darkness gasped, her voice sharp and shrill, as if she had been startled by something.
Huihui nodded in deep agreement, her expression quite grave: "And it looks like he's quite ill."
Not long ago, Ristarte was still indignant about the sacrifice that Elulu was about to face.
Now that Elulu isn't planning to sacrifice herself, why does this goddess seem a bit... how should I put it, strange?
There's a kind of beauty in the interplay between the left and right hemispheres of the brain; do you want her to jump or not?!
Kazuma, his gaze vacant, forced a smile that looked more like a grimace: "Heh, is this the first time you've met your goddess?"
It turns out that it's best not to have too high expectations of so-called goddesses; their mental state may be more beautiful than you imagine.
"You guys are going too far!!" Hearing everyone criticizing the goddess, Aqua was so aggrieved that she almost cried: "How can individual behavior be generalized to the whole group?"
"Apologize to me! You must offer the most sincere apology to the goddess Aqua!" Aqua stomped her foot, her face full of anger, showing no sign of letting it go.
"I'm sorry, Aqua." Kazuma smiled gently, his face full of sincerity: "It really shouldn't be generalized to the whole group..."
However, he silently added in his mind: I'm just talking about you and the goddess of facial expressions.
After all, goddesses like Hestia and Ariadne are pretty normal, well, at least for now!
"So what?!"
"Without that sword, what would this world be like? Is there really no other way?"
Seiya slowly turned to look at the dragons, his tone filled with deep doubt: "Ultimately, it's questionable whether that sword can even defeat the Demon King."
Queen Liveyer trembled with rage upon hearing this, her eyes burning with fury: "What nonsense are you spouting? This is the revelation of the first Dragon Emperor!"
"That's astonishing; there's absolutely no theoretical basis for it." Seiya looked at the group with a subtle expression, making no attempt to hide his opinion.
"This is ultimately just the lizard old woman's nonsense."
"Hahaha, congratulations on finally discovering the truth. This group of dragons who don't even have horns probably just gave themselves that title."
"Although I hate to admit it, you are indeed a tiny bit more handsome than me right now, and your logical thinking is frighteningly clear!"
Upon hearing the name "Lizard Granny," everyone suddenly smiled with relief, realizing that the Cautious Warrior hadn't listened to a word they were saying.
The rebuttal was quite brilliant; these people are clearly lizardmen who call themselves dragons!
Replacing the so-called revelation of the first Dragon Emperor with that of the first lizard instantly lowered the overall quality of the prophecy, making its authenticity highly questionable.
Chapter 1248 The Dragon Mother's outrageous attributes severely damage our teammates!
Having said all that, the others around him stopped being polite. Matthew immediately transformed into a dragon and began to fight back, but before he could even look cool for two seconds, he collapsed to the ground.
"Matthew?! What's wrong with you, oh dear..." Ristarte was about to rush forward to help when she felt a tingling sensation throughout her body, and then her body twisted and collapsed to the ground.
"Hehehe, I was very careful." Livermore's lips curled up slightly, letting out a smug chuckle. "Knowing this would happen, I put anesthetic in the food earlier."
"Neither magic nor antidotes can remove it; even the goddess is temporarily immobilized!"
Queen Riviera then glanced contemptuously at the fallen crowd, turned, and ordered her men to continue the ceremony.
However, just as the lizard soldiers approached Eluru again, preparing to push her off the cliff, something unexpected happened.
[But Seiya was completely unharmed; instead, he kicked the soldiers away with a blank expression, creating an awkward moment.]
"Hahaha, this is hilarious! Someone actually dares to compare caution with a cautious hero? The last one who dared to do that is nowhere to be found."
"Good heavens, magic and antidotes are useless, it even took down a goddess. What kind of anesthetic is so potent? Send me a link!"
