Guild Boss's Ambition

giggle.

On the other side of the door, someone knocked politely.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?" asked a sweet female voice.

"High Priest, please be solemn. This is a battlefield." said another cold and ethereal voice.

"Sorry, I'm changing clothes. Please wait a minute." I said as I locked the portal.

Bang!

The next second, the door was kicked into the sky by the person on the other end, and two high elves were seen standing in the door frame. The one on the left had long hair draped over her shoulders, dressed in military uniform, with a beautiful and solemn appearance. She stood on one leg with her right leg bent. It seemed that she was the one who broke the door; the high elf on the right was wearing priest's clothes, with a graceful and plump figure, and a gentle and beautiful complexion, but her smile was too kind, which made people shudder.

"Excuse me, are you Miss Necromancer?" asked the high elf priest on the right.

"No, no, no, I'm just a civilian passing by."

I pointed to the bottom of the mountain and tried to fool them by saying, "Are you looking for the necromancer with three heads and six arms? He just turned into a crow and flew down the mountain. If you want to find him, you'd better hurry up! By the way, I remember your name is Kailan Melo, right? Since you cut off one of my arms last time, let's not fight again today, okay?"

That’s right, the high elf who kicked the door out was the legendary high elf who chopped off my arm last time──Kelan Melo.

And the other high elf whom she called the High Priest might also be a very powerful opponent.

If a battle breaks out, my chances of winning are probably one in a billion.

Unfortunately, I drew the worst lot as usual.

"Are you the necromancer from last time? Was that ghost dragon in the sky your trick?!"

Kailan Melo, who recognized me, immediately drew the knife from her waist. Judging from her posture and tone, she obviously did not believe the nonsense I made up. In the face of such absolutely powerful force, I was helpless for a moment. However, in the 56 years of my life, I have encountered more dangerous and desperate situations than the one in front of me, and I have long been accustomed to bad luck.

"There is always a way out..."

"There must be something that can be used..."

I quickly read the situation in front of me, decisively ignored the aggressive Kailan Melo, and looked at another high elf: "You are wearing priest's clothes, holding the moon god's staff, and there is a mark of the necromancy on your forehead. I guess you are the elf commander Gabriella who led the army this time? I am Bai Ye, I don't have a surname, and I come from the Dark Alliance. Nice to meet you."

While I was saying some unnecessary words, I performed the ancient skirt-lifting gesture to the other person.

Seeing this, the other party politely returned my skirt-lifting gesture.

"I'm sorry, it was so rude of me not to introduce myself."

The pure and holy high elf covered his mouth, smiled as pure as spring water, and said softly: "Just as you guessed, I am a follower of the goddess of nature, the fruit of the tree of life, named Gabriella, pronounced as murderer. The reason why I suddenly visited you is because a ghost dragon suddenly appeared in the sky. May I ask if you know anything?"

"I don't know anything."

This kind of answer obviously doesn't work.

However, if I just keep telling the truth, the other brutal high elf ranger next to me will definitely kill me instantly──

"Damn it! She's too fast. She's definitely the nemesis of a spellcaster like me."

I thought quickly while pretending to be calm and indifferent: "It is true that I brought this elven dragon back to life, but it is not the ghost dragon you mentioned. It is a giant dragon that lives in another life form."

"Hate, anger, loss..."

Gabriella said with a worried look on her face: "Bertlem is in a very bad condition now. Miss Bai Ye, do you have any way to restore him to his original state? He is a kind child and should have a happy ending."

I frowned and asked, "Is death also a perfect ending?"

Gabriella looked at me with pity in her eyes: "Life is death, and death is life. Everything is the will of the Creator God."

I pointed at the two elven dragons gnawing at each other's wings in the sky and questioned, "Is this also the will of the Creator God?"

Zheng──

The next moment, Kelanmelo's sword was at my throat.

The Ranger of Nature said coldly: "This is also the will of the Creator God."

Unlike Gabriella, Kailan Melo is a blind actionist.

For a blind and thoughtless fanatic, I can't shake her will with just words.

On the contrary, Gabriella, who is good at dialectical thinking, still has some room for negotiation.

I was feeling anxious and asked with a smile, "If I help you kill Bertram, what benefits will I get from it?"

Gabriella grabbed the tip of the ranger's sword, moved it away from my throat, and said calmly: "Lich, why do you use life as a bargaining chip? It is our common responsibility to liberate every innocent life."

“Is killing humans also a kind of liberation?”

"It's a necessary evil, sad love."

Just as imagined, Gabriella is also a devout believer, even a little beyond common sense.

Her eyes were so kind and gentle that they were scary like an angel.

I asked tentatively, "What if I say I don't want to save Bertram?"

Kailan Melo on the side said coldly: "Then I will kill you."

I asked again, "What about after rescuing Bertram?"

Kailan Melo said as a matter of course: "Then of course I'll kill you!"

"Miss……"

"The result of saving him is death..."

"If you don't save him, he will die..."

“Then why should I save it…”

It can be confirmed that Kailan Melo is a stubborn low-level elf.

I turned my eyes to Gabriella who was speaking reasonably: "What about you? You don't think the same as this idiot, do you?"

"Who are you calling an idiot?"

The ranger's knife immediately returned to my throat.

Seeing Kailan Melo's anger, Gabriella immediately shouted at her to leave in a deep voice: "Kailan Melo, calm down."

And so, the fatal knife left my neck for the second time.

After all, among them, Gabriella, as the high priestess, is the one who really is in charge.

"Sir, we high elves do not have the habit of trading with liches."

However, I did not hear the expected reply from Gabriella. The look in her eyes when she looked at me was so clear and full of pity, as if she had completely read my heart and understood everything about me.

She said without giving in: "We will not use life as a bargaining chip. If you are unwilling to restore Bertram to its original state, then we will deal with Bertram in our own way. As for you, the half-lich, Gabriella will let you assist us in the formatting operation. You are talented and inspiring, and will be a great help to us."

Listening to Gabriella's tone, I couldn't help but feel shocked.

I have to find a way to escape...

Otherwise, I would probably be sealed by them, or even have a second chain added to Uru!

Suddenly, Gabriella said, "Child, don't be afraid or doubt. Carrying out God's will is just following the arrangement of heaven."

"You..." I was shocked: "Are you reading my mind?"

Gabriella smiled and shook her head, denying it apologetically: "No, I don't use mind reading. I just have the ability to sense people's emotional changes. In the world of high elves, this is common knowledge. But in the conservation area, only a few superiors know this characteristic of mine. If this has violated your personal privacy, I can only express my deepest apologies."

This one is called Gabriella and it's so tricky!

escape! Must escape!

I pretended to watch the battle below the mountain, and walked slowly towards the cliff, questioning, "A conservation area? In the eyes of you high elves, are we intelligent life forms animals that need conservation? Then why do elves fall in love with humans? Why do half-elves exist? Why do you, who are not the creator gods, want to create another species? Do you have the qualifications?"

"Ms. Bai Ye, although I cannot answer your question, you'd better stay away from the edge of the cliff. Even though you can see more scenery from this position, no matter how wide the cliff is, there is a limit. If you take another step, you may be doomed."

As Gabriella's voice sounded, my body was suddenly hit by a strong wind and was dragged back to the original position.

After failing to escape by jumping off the cliff, I sighed softly, turned around and asked in annoyance: "Is it really okay for you to waste your time on me? To be honest, while you were entangled with me, your comrades were also dying on the battlefield."

Hearing this, Gabriella looked at the battlefield with a sad look on her face. "Justice is not a game of numbers. My comrade can die for love by his own will, but Bertram in heaven has fallen into hell because of the pollution of the dark power. As his friend, I have the responsibility to let him die in a good and correct manner and return to the cycle of life and death."

It seems...

There is no room for negotiation...

Gabriella's faith is already a complete system. She has her own explanation for any form of doubt.

The conflict between justice and justice is always ultimately determined by strength.

My chance of winning is probably one in a billion!

The potion that knocked me unconscious proved that such a slim probability was possible.

I looked at Kailan Melo who had already sheathed his sword, and decided to strike first!

……

31. Gabriella (White Night)

(white night)

I won't have any reinforcements, and there are only two enemies.

The first is Kailan Melo, who uses bows and quick swords as his main means of attack.

The second is Gabriella, whose strength is still unknown.

What is certain is that Kailan Melo is an enemy that I absolutely cannot defeat.

The only hope for victory lies in the unknown Gabriella.

Knock down Gabriella as quickly as possible and use her to threaten Kailan Melo. That is my only hope.

"We must strike first!"

This thought popped into my head.

But at this moment, Gabriella's expression changed drastically.

She showed sadness and compassion.

"Why do you rebel against the will of the Creator God?"

The one in a billion chance did not happen. As soon as I had the thought of killing, the elf priest grabbed my throat with an invisible force as I was about to recite the spell. During the whole process, I did not even feel a trace of magic flow.

"Divine arts?"

I looked at the mark of the Necromancer on my forehead and quickly thought about my next move.

The other party seemed to have no intention of letting me speak again──

The moment he held me, a series of sounds kept coming into my ears.

“lim ama mba iok mko, Jahho jowa habuitiok.”

"Ia ko hanuan vahuoia famoksiso..."

The strange syllables came from Gabriella's soul. They were neither Elvish nor Common Language, nor even any of the 126 languages I knew. But even though I didn't understand this language, my body reacted to them, just like a weak person would instinctively feel fear when facing a dragon's roar.

Can't control myself!

I knelt on the ground in a ridiculous posture, and my soul gradually became synchronized with these strange languages.

“This feeling is…”

"brainwashing?!"

“You…are you kidding me!”

Amidst the strange noises that followed, it seemed as if something terrible was gradually implanted deep into my soul.

At this moment, I realized that I had to save myself as soon as possible.

What is certain is that I have no way to resist the soul magic cast by the other party.

In other words, the transformation of the soul is an inevitable future.

"If that's the case, then let her transform herself──"

"According to the current situation, when this technique is completed, I will be completely controlled by them."

"I must abandon this body."
