Princess' personal painter

Taking advantage of the gap between the shows, Roach tiptoed to the side of the chairman, and whispered something beside Chi Xie with a flattering smile.

Chi Xie said calmly: "That woman just now..."

Luo Qi understood, and then said: "I understand, I will arrange it right away, and it will be later today. What do you think, Your Majesty?"

Speaking of such words, Roach still felt a little uneasy in his heart.After all, he tasted the fish secretly in front of the monarch, and he blamed that beauty for being too alluring.There has never been such a thing in the past. If the monarch finds out, he can't imagine what the consequences will be.

He carefully looked at the monarch's expression, but Chi Xie suddenly asked: "Is she an outsider?"

Luo Qi was slightly taken aback, and quickly answered: "According to that clown, she is a slave bought from outsiders at a high price."

"Humph!"

The sudden heavy hum made Luo Qi tremble all over, he subconsciously knelt down towards Chi Xie, and said in a trembling voice: "Please, please make it clear, Your Majesty."

Chi Xie didn't even look at Luo Qi behind him: "Luo Qi, in vain you have been with me for 30 years. Have you forgotten the order issued by the Seven Pillars to arrest all outsiders half a year ago? Do you know that you have committed the crime of covering up and deceiving if you don’t report to me the information of the perpetrator?”

Luo Qi never thought that there was such a mistake. He was sweating continuously, and said in a trembling voice: "The guilty minister deserves to die. The criminal minister knows that His Majesty is magnanimous. Please forgive the criminal minister for a momentary mistake..."

Chi Xie took a sip of the good wine, and said lightly: "For the sake of you being a veteran, get up and give me a chance to make up for my mistakes. Listen carefully to what I'm going to say..."

Most of the nobles in the stands, including all the people in the square, focused their attention on the stage. They didn't notice the conversation between Chi Xie and Roach, and no one noticed that Roach came to the audience with an unprecedented solemn expression. The guard officer standing on the side of the high platform conveyed His Majesty's order to him.

Different from the magnificence on the stage, the undercurrent quietly began to surge in the audience.

At this time, Irene was wearing a flowing dress and a large robe, playing the role of a "troubadour". While she was magically drawing various pictures, she narrated the Another world is those eloquent and moving stories that have been recited by countless people.

Because of her outstanding appearance, Irene put on half a silver mask to cover the upper half of her cheeks.But even so, just listening to her light and moving voice and seeing the confident smile at the corner of her mouth, people can't help but be full of reverie about her.

"...In this way, our poor mermaid princess was still unable to be with her beloved prince in the end. Due to the curse of the witch, her body gradually turned into colorful bubbles under the sunshine, heading deep into the pink clouds. flew over..."

In a mournful soundtrack, Erin finishes the story of "Daughter of the Sea" in a mournful tone.The last scene of the scene depicted in her hands is the picture of the prince making marriage vows with another girl, and they are surprised by the sudden appearance of colorful bubbles - but no one knows that there was once a beautiful mermaid princess , so infatuatedly in love with the prince, and in the end, she paid her own life for this love.

The story came to an end in the strong contrast between sweetness and sadness. Irene gently erased those illusory images, stood alone in the center of the quiet stage, and sighed secretly.

Not long after, from the noble seats on the square and the high platform, there were faint sobs, but they were all people who were sad about the experience of the mermaid princess.In Eileen's narration and interpretation, such a poignant and gripping story seems to have happened in front of her eyes. Even the most hard-hearted people among the demons will inevitably be moved by it.

From this point of view, there is no difference in essence between the emotions of demons and humans.Is it really the will of the demons themselves that Luna said to serve "evil"?

In order to obtain the best performance effect, Erin used the enhanced learning ability of the artifact "Vancetti's Whisper" to forcibly master the language of the demons within ten days. of.Thinking of this, Erin gained a little more confidence in her actions this time.

After the audience calmed down a little, Irene smiled lightly again, and asked everyone: "...the next story, do you still want to hear it?"

Unsurprisingly, her question received an enthusiastic response.

In this way, Irene finished the story of "Cinderella" and "Snow White and the Seven Children" in the same way.Although the appeal of the story is not as strong as that of "The Daughter of the Sea", the surprise brought by the former Cinderella's counterattack, the exciting experience of Snow White in the latter, and the dazzling gesture of expelling the evil queen at the end are all in Irene's wonderful story. Under the interpretation, the audience was all mesmerized...

However, during this process, almost no one noticed that Chi Xie, who had also heard these two stories on the high platform, was getting more and more ugly.

When Irene told the story, her perception naturally noticed that an army of nearly [-] people had surrounded the square area at some point.At the same time, the guards who were originally stationed near the high platform also received the order and quietly put their hands on the weapons, waiting for the officer to give an order.

"...Then, the last thing I want to tell is the story about the princess who is loved by the moon god."

The light and pleasant tone came from Irene's lips, and a gust of cold wind blew between the sky and the earth, and everyone present felt an inexplicable chill.

"Different from the previous three stories, only this one actually happened."

After saying this, Irene took a deep breath, and used her mental power to connect to the huge magic circle that was pre-arranged around the square.In the eyes of the onlookers, the girl's body leisurely left the stage, stretched out her hand towards the sky in mid-air, as if she was grabbing something, and then her lips opened and closed slightly - at this moment, it seemed that some switch was activated. Touched, the world instantly became pitch black.

The cold, piercing darkness enveloped everything.

It wasn't until this moment that the audience present realized that something was wrong.

In this space where you can't reach your fingers, only Irene's voice is still passing: "In the story I told just now, there were 'loyalty', 'kindness' and 'justice' respectively. I don't know what is in your values. , how to define these concepts, I just know that even you can be moved when you hear these stories. In fact, in the past, decades ago, someone tried to promote these concepts to you ...But some of you united, turned your back on them, and killed your former ruler in the most heartbreaking way."

After a pause, Irene's tone suddenly became cold: "It's like a fairy tale has an ending... Today is the day of judgment for sinners."

Chapter 50 The Avengers Return in the Moonlight

In this world, there is no change of day and night, and there is almost no change of seasons.

Only every once in a while, the cold wind blowing from the ice sheet in the extreme north not only brings rain and snow seasons to the earth and replenishes water, but also announces the change of the year.In addition, the people here are extremely weak in the concept of time passing.

I have stayed here for too long, and the concept of time is almost assimilated.

But even so, Juventusanne Sharp still recorded it with the appearance left by her father. This is her No. 90 years in this moonless world.

She is a hybrid of humans and demons, and has inherited her mother's longer lifespan than humans.She lived in the human world for a while when she was a child, but in order to avoid being found abnormal due to her slow growth, she basically lived with her father in the world of the demons.Later, under various opportunities, she met a young king of the demon clan and became his princess.

The king of the demons is called Kaizhuo Desmuela. Unlike most of the demons she knows, Kaizhuo can definitely be called a rebellious king.He practiced benevolent government and abolished slavery.He opposed power and violence, and stopped the decades-long war with other tribes.At the temple meeting, he called on the Seven Races to unite to find a way to save this fallen world.

He doesn't care about the "sins" bestowed by the demon gods on all races, and believes that belief itself is useless.

Therefore, although Kaizhuo is the king of the demon clan, his image is no different from the prince Yuwen Shanni dreamed of when she was a child. She agrees with his ideas very much, and she feels sincere happiness for becoming Kaizhuo's princess.What's more, after the combination of the two, they soon had the crystallization of love, a lovely daughter.

On the day her daughter was born, a ray of bright silver light shone on her body, and this miraculous scene lasted for a whole day, which deeply moved Youwen Shanni.She believed that the birth of her daughter must have been blessed by the goddess of the moon, so she named her "Luna".

Under the deliberate training of Kaizhuo and Youwenshanni, Luna grew up carefree, just like the flawless moon in the night sky, she has the purest heart and has never been contaminated with any evil.

On the other hand, with the full support of Youwen Shanni, the reforms implemented by Kai Zhuo are also in full swing.Obviously, both of them wanted to change this sinful country. They protected their daughter like a treasure and temporarily imprisoned her in a greenhouse. beautiful world.

As for those sinister parts that are difficult to get rid of, I will tell Luna when she grows bigger. At that time, she must also be able to judge the good and evil of this world with her own wisdom.

In this way, Youwen Shanni and Kaizhuo poured all the beautiful imaginations of this world into their daughter.They regard themselves as a model of good deeds, practice their own actions, and make various efforts to change this country and even the world... However, they did not notice that someone they trusted the most quietly joined forces with stubborn forces, secretly Formed a powerful countercurrent.

The sudden mutiny turned the entire palace into a sea of ​​blood.Youwenshanni, who has human blood, was tortured to death by the rebels, and Kaizhuo Desimula was taken to the Demon God Hall together with Luna, and was sentenced to a lingering punishment at the trial conference attended by [-] high priests. .

Therefore, the surname Dismula, who has ruled one of the Seven Pillars of the Demon Race for thousands of years, will eventually disappear in the long river of history because he has embarked on the road of betraying the Demon God.But no one expected that—at the last moment of being about to be sentenced, Kai Zhuo suddenly burst out with amazing power.

After breaking free from the shackles and killing several priests, Kaizhuo took advantage of the chaos to open a strange passage and sent his daughter to an unknown place, and then he fought an earth-shattering battle with the priests. Exhausted and died.According to rumors, this is the only time in his long life that Kai Zhuo, one of the Seven Kings of the Demon Race, used the power rooted in the blood of the Demon God. In order to save his daughter's life, he had no choice but to take refuge in the Demon God.

The story about the Dismura clan is not a secret in the hearts of the demons, especially the people in the Dark Moon Capital. Many people are very clear about the ins and outs of the matter.However, no one could have imagined that the girl in the court who was ridiculed for being too pure and ignorant would return here as an avenger so soon——

At that moment, in the eyes of everyone, that ray of bright moonlight broke through the darkness.

Walking out of this ray of silver light is a girl dressed in the costume of a royal princess, with an exquisite appearance like a doll.Under the fluttering pale golden hair, there are ice-blue pupils that seem to reflect the brutality of this world, and they are looking down at the sentient beings here with an attitude without any emotion.

The moment they saw Luna, all the nobles present who participated in the rebellion 30 years ago all gasped. Many people still remember the bloodshed 30 years ago, but now, they saw the princess who came back with revenge, and no one knew how powerful she really was.

"What are you still doing in a daze, catch her quickly!"

A certain nobleman whose expression changed drastically shouted to the guards behind him, but no one paid attention to his scolding.Only then did the nobles realize in a panic that most of the guards on the high platform had fallen into a state of sluggish, motionless expressions, unaware of changes in the outside world.

Of course, it's not just these guards, all the people watching the performance under the stage, including the nearly ten thousand soldiers who surrounded the square in a more peripheral area, as long as they are slightly weaker, they all seem to be under some kind of spiritual system. Illusion has become the existence of the living dead.

"That's part of the show, too."

Laughter like silver bells rang in the ears of the nobles. They looked up in horror and saw another girl in a gorgeous princess dress.At this time, Eileen had already taken off her mask, fully presenting that confident and dazzling appearance in front of everyone, with a light smile on the corner of her mouth, she explained:

"Your awe-inspiring monarch has long since lost his lion-like bravery when he rebelled. With the most conservative and cautious thoughts, he wants to wipe out the poor princess and her companions in front of you. , but I didn’t expect that it would give me enough time to deploy the magic circle. Seeing so many people being deeply moved by the story I just told, I’m super happy..."

Hearing Irene's words, Chi Xie on the throne finally couldn't hold back, he stood up abruptly, and asked Irene: "Arrogant outsider... who are you?"

"Who am I? It doesn't matter at all, and... I am not obliged to tell you." After learning the story about the Luna family, Irene naturally had absolutely nothing to do with the betrayer in front of her. I couldn't help but use a mocking tone when I spoke, "What you should worry about right now is how many of these nobles who supported you to betray the monarch 30 years ago are there at this important juncture of the story about betrayal and contention?" Will people make the right choice?"

Afterwards, Irene looked at the nobles on the high platform, showing a smile with great interest——

"The choice now is a matter of your life and death."

Chapter 51 An Unexpectedly Hard Battle

Hearing Irene's question, the nobles were all silent and no one dared to answer.

From their point of view, the pitch-black sky that covered everything, and the strange spell that made all low-level forces lose their combat effectiveness, far exceeded their cognition of power.When facing the unknown, people's inner fear is often magnified invisibly. If they can choose, they definitely don't want to be an enemy of this force.

However, on the other hand, Chi Xie's powerful strength and the coercion it has brought to people over the years also made it difficult for the nobles to raise the idea of ​​resistance.They are well aware of Chixie's thunder tactics, even if there are people among the nobles who sympathize with the Desmira family, they dare not use their wealth and lives to participate in gambling.

Therefore, almost all the nobles fell into silence, and no one stood up to express their views.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha……"

Seeing this scene, Chi Xie laughed back in anger.After laughing for a while, he stared at Irene and Luna in the sky, and said in a cold voice: "Your deceitful tricks can fool those scumbags down there, but they can't fool me, so let me break the false sky Bar!"

After saying that, he pulled out a two-meter-long sword from behind, and felt a scorching breath erupt from his burly body, and a raging fire shot up from the blade made of iron.

Feeling the aura of Chi Xie, Eileen couldn't help being taken aback.Just now he was sitting on the throne without showing any signs of dew, but the power he suddenly erupted at this time was not even inferior to the demon lord he had fought against back then.In contrast, if Irene only relied on her own strength, she would definitely not be this guy's opponent.

Before she lost her thoughts, Eileen saw Chi Xie rushing forward like a shooting star, raising a burning long knife and slashing towards him.Irene's eyes widened in shock. The speed of the opponent's attack was completely beyond her imagination, which left her no time to prepare the magic. Looking at the blade that was close at hand, she threw it almost instinctively. Something in my arms——

Amidst the angel's leisurely sigh, the translucent magic barrier blocked the blazing thunderbolt blow, and the collision of the two forces caused a violent explosion, instantly reflecting the sky and the earth.However, even though Irene was protected by a magic barrier, the aftershock of the impact still hurt her internal organs, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Taking advantage of the cover of the explosion, she retreated to Luna's side. At this time, her heart was full of fear.

The precious magic scroll called "Angel's Guardian" was made by a great sage who was proficient in light spells during the empire. Irene originally wanted to use this scroll as her hole card, but she was forced to consume it from the beginning, and there was no Even this scroll failed to completely block Chi Xie's attack.

10 minutes... can I really last that long?

... You absolutely can't fight him head-on, you can only use a roundabout way and do your best.

Thinking of this, Irene looked at Luna beside her worriedly, gritted her teeth, and flew towards the left side of the battlefield.At the same time that Irene was leaving, Luna's figure also flew a certain distance in the opposite direction of Irene, and the two of them faced Chi Xie in a flanking manner.

The long knife in Chi Xie's hand was still burning with terrifying flames. He did not pursue for the time being, but turned to Luna, and said mockingly: "The remnants of the sinners who survived back then, are you really here for revenge? I I can't even see your fighting spirit..." After a pause, Chi Xie turned to Irene again: "Ridiculous human being, you have no right to try to meddle in our family's internal affairs. Let's just get caught, because you look good For the sake of you, maybe I will let you live."

Noticing the evil fire in the other person's eyes when he looked at her, Irene could naturally guess what he was thinking, she thought for a while, then smiled and said: "However, I heard that you have been looking for alien humans all this time. I am very greedy for life and afraid of death, can you tell me why?"

"How can the will of our gods be guessed by mortals?" Chi Xie laughed loudly, "You say you are greedy for life and afraid of death? If you dare to come to me and make trouble, I think you don't know what life and death are... Don't worry, wait After I capture you, I will slowly let you know what is fake."

This guy is really a pervert, and he can't leave his words... Irene suppressed the thoughts of disgust in her heart, tilted her head maliciously and said cutely: "**? Sister fox spirit often says such unclear words, she will still It is said that men are scourges, and they will use all means to possess our girls' bodies, so let me not be fooled easily... So uncle, you are also lying to me, right?"

Hearing Irene's words, Chi Xie's expression darkened suddenly: "Human beings, don't fool me!"

After all, Chi Xie stopped talking, and suddenly flew up to attack again.His saber moves from bottom to top, blood-like flames burst out from the sharp edge of the blade, and spread to half the sky in an instant, turning into a hideous flame giant net, which is bound to kill the two people in mid-air Catch them all.

This terrifying knife can neither be dodged nor blocked.

Making a judgment again, Eileen couldn't help laughing bitterly in her heart.

Before the attack came, the howling wind hit Irene's long hair first, and the ornaments in the hair were torn off in the strong wind.Seeing that the terrifying flame net was about to swallow Irene, at the last moment, Irene reached out and grabbed the silver hairpin that was about to fall off, and put it in her arms.

Well, it's such an embarrassing situation again... As expected, I was too arrogant before.

In the next instant, a dazzling holy light burst out from Irene's body, and this holy light expanded rapidly, extinguishing all the flames around her, before it turned into dots of fluorescent light and fell from midair.At the same time, when Irene's figure was revealed again, it turned into another appearance——

Holding a holy scripture in her hand, she was dressed in a pure white nun's attire, with a holy cross hanging on her chest, and even her expression exuded a radiance like a saint.In a sense, Irene at this time is indeed a saint, and the name "Irene" originally belonged to "her".

I had to change into this form because the light magic is better at defense.

The original meaning of the existence of the Holy See was to fight against the demons. The light-type magic system originally established by the followers of the Jelisha Church had an obvious restraint effect on the demons.Therefore, in the eyes of the demons, whether it is the Holy See, priests or saints, they are all natural enemies. Even after thousands of years, this concept is still rooted in the consciousness of every demon.

Therefore, Irene's appearance at this time is bound to cause a lot of trouble.But if she didn't use light spells, she couldn't even stop Chi Xie's sword.

On the other side, Chi Xie easily blocked the pinning attack from Luna, and when he saw Irene again, he was obviously taken aback: "I didn't expect you to be Jelisha's lackey..." After a pause, he turned to Leaving Luna behind, he mocked in a cold voice: "It seems that the surname Dismula not only betrayed the great demon god, but also took refuge in Yelisha who has a great hatred for us... Hahahaha, this is really ridiculous Already!"

Luna just looked at him calmly, without making any excuses.
