"how could it be possible."
The demon was filled with despair. They had both just broken through, so why was there such a huge gap in strength?
"finished?"
Leah's tone remained cold.
"When it's over, it's my turn."
Leia's sword swept towards the demon with a cold light. This attack was her strongest one and there was no way the opponent could dodge it.
The [Black Sword] was infinitely enlarged in the demon's pupils. He wanted to dodge it, but he couldn't.
"call out."
The extremely sharp [Black Sword] gently scratched the demon's throat, easily causing him fatal damage.
“Huh…huh…”
The demon covered his throat which was gushing out blood and breathed hard. His eyes were full of reluctance as he stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to grab something, but he caught nothing and fell in a pool of blood.
"Aqiao, will you marry me in the future? I can take you to see the sea!"
"Hehe, go and daydream!"
······
"Our Fell will definitely become a great warrior in the future."
"Haha, Dad, if I become a great warrior, I will never let you and mom suffer any grievances again."
······
"Fell, you have to shoulder the future of the demon clan."
"Don't worry, Chief. Leave everything to me!"
Those memory fragments flashed through the demon's mind one by one. It was strange that many memories that were usually blurred were now extremely clear.
Sorry everyone, I have to break my promise.
so cold.
This was the last thought left by the demon, and then his consciousness fell into darkness.
As the demon died, Leia swung the [Black Sword] in her hand, shaking off all the blood on the sword.
Unlike all the previous battles, Leia was silent for a long time after this battle, and it seemed that her whole mood was depressed.
"You have your own family too."
Leia looked at the corpse in front of her and murmured softly. She was very familiar with the look in the demon's eyes before his death. The mixture of reluctance and apology was the same as that of her father and mother who left her.
"Snapped."
Finally, Leah stood in front of the demon's body and saluted him. This was a unique etiquette for swordsmen, given to enemies worthy of respect.
Leia did not give this gift to a demon from the dark race, but to a strong man who fought for his family.
"Aren't you going to go down and comfort her?"
In the sky, Elina and Lamia witnessed the entire process of the battle, but at this moment they had no intention of moving.
"No, at this time, Leah needs to understand for herself that the real cruelty of war is not the killing of soldiers, but the shattering of countless families behind those soldiers."
Facing Lamia's suggestion, Elina shook her head and continued
"She also needs to understand that if she shows any mercy on the battlefield, her family will be shattered."
"Sometimes I really don't understand you humans. For us, Dragons, if we encounter a threatening target, we can just eliminate it directly."
Lamia touched her little horn with a confused look on her face. As a Dragon, she was destined to be unable to understand human emotions.
Just when the male demon, Fair, died, a group of demons were imprisoned outside a Marquis' castle in the territory of Eternal Night.
These demons were the unlucky ones who had offended the werewolf marquis. However, because he had promised Fair, the marquis did not make things difficult for these demons. He just locked them up on a plain outside the castle.
"Sister Aqiao, will Brother Feier come to save us?"
Inside the prison, a little girl who looked no more than ten years old timidly pulled at the corner of another woman's clothes.
"Don't worry, Brother Feier always keeps his word. Since he promised us, he will definitely come back to save us."
The female demon named Aqiao had a pretty face. She touched the little girl's head with a smile, then stood up, looked at the sky in the distance, and prayed in her heart.
"You must come back safely, Feier. When you come back, I will be your bride..."
Chapter 69: The Girl's Heart Knot
"Teacher Elina, tell me, why does war happen?"
After standing there for a long time, Leah finally spoke.
Although Elena was not by her side, she knew that teacher Elena would definitely hear what she said and would also give her an answer. In Leah's heart, Elena seemed to be omnipotent.
But this time, Elina did not answer her question. She quietly appeared behind Leah, but fell silent.
Why is there war?
This topic is too heavy and too huge, even Elena doesn't know the answer.
"I can feel this person's will. It is only now that I understand how my parents felt when they faced the powerful enemy."
Tears blurred Leia's vision. The madness of this demon when fighting with her was impossible if there was nothing to protect.
Just like the father who rushed towards the dark army, and just like the mother who rushed towards the human swordsman.
Did I do something wrong?
A sudden feeling of guilt arose in Leah's heart.
This demon may have had a happy and complete family, but now all of this has been destroyed by her own hands.
I didn't expect that I would become the person I hate so quickly.
Leia looked at her hands and suddenly felt a little bored.
"Leah."
Elina's voice sounded from behind Leah, but what was unusual was that this time, Leah did not respond to Elina immediately as usual, but still stood there stupidly.
It's bad, Leia is trapped in self-doubt, and if she is not enlightened, it will cost her life in future battles.
Looking at the unresponsive Leah, Elina began to get anxious. If she showed even the slightest bit of mercy on the battlefield, she would be the only one to die.
"Leah, listen to me!"
Elina walked forward, pressed Leah's shoulders, and pulled her over, only to see a girl with tears in her eyes.
Seeing this scene, Elena was stunned for a moment. This girl was smiling when facing Count Flo and when facing the end of her own life.
"Teacher Elina, you don't need to say anything more. I know everything. If it happens again, I will still choose to kill him. If not for anything else, just for Hill and everyone in Yas Village."
Lia wiped the tears from her face and said with a smile.
Her words made Elina unable to say what she originally wanted to say.
"Teacher Elina, I'm a little tired. Can we stop here for this training?"
Leia was feeling a little depressed. This was the first time she took the initiative to ask to stop training.
"it is good."
Faced with Leah's request, Elina had no reason to refuse.
Although she knew that Leia's knot was not really untied, but was hidden deep in her heart, this environment was indeed not a good place to untie the knot.
Only time can help Leia resolve her worries.
Thinking of this, Elina cast an earth magic and buried the demon's body.
Afterwards, Lamia took two people and rushed towards Yas Village again.
"We're home now."
Looking at the vibrant village not far away, Leah's mood improved a little. Only here can she truly feel the meaning of her existence.
"Hey, Leah is back. I guess you gained a lot this time."
"Leah, did you cry during Elina-sama's training? Hahahaha."
As Leia walked in the village, villagers carrying things would greet her from time to time. Leia responded very politely to these smiling and energetic villagers.
Only one person made Leia break down her defense instantly.
“Lea-senpai! Hahahahaha! Lea-senpai!!”
From a distance, Andrei's barbell-like laughter was heard, and then a can-like guy was seen rushing towards them, waving his hands.
That passionate voice still made Leia unbearable.
"Teacher Elina, I'm really too tired, so I'm going to go back and rest. Please don't tell Andri where I am!"
After hearing Andri's voice, Leah bowed to Elena in panic and ran back to her home.
Looking at Leah's awkward running posture, Elena was speechless. This Andrei was really Leah's nemesis.
However, thanks to him, the depression in Leia's heart should be alleviated a little.
Thinking of this, Alina smiled helplessly and shook her head.
"Hey, Teacher Elina? Why is Senior Lea running so fast? I have good news to share with her."
Looking at Leah running very fast, Andrei scratched his head in confusion, although he couldn't scratch his head.
"Okay, Leah has just gone through high-intensity training and is very tired. She needs to rest. You are not allowed to disturb her. Tell me if you have any good news."
Elina rolled her eyes in annoyance. It seemed that Andrei had no idea how to keep a distance from others.
"Hey, I'm just too excited. I can't wait to share this with Senior Leah."
Andri smiled a little embarrassedly, and then continued
"But it's the same thing as telling Teacher Elina."
"Teacher Elina, after this period of study and practice, I feel that the bottleneck on my path to radiance has loosened a little!"
Andri's tone was excited. He had been stuck at the Glorious level for a long time. In the past few days, through the ancient books given to him by Elena and his own years of accumulation, he finally felt the feeling of breakthrough.
"Really? Congratulations then."
Elina's tone was a little surprised. The road from glory to brilliance is very difficult, and countless people will be stuck here.
Because the leap to this level is a qualitative change, once you step into the brilliance, the entire life structure will change and the lifespan will be extended accordingly.
Although glorious-level professionals are very powerful, they are still ordinary humans after all, and their lifespan is at most a hundred years.
But Huiyao is different. Huiyao has truly been baptized by the magic of dawn, and his lifespan will increase to three hundred years.
"Hehe, I have to thank Teacher Elina for all her advice. I think my breakthrough is coming soon, and the Empire will soon issue an order regarding my transfer. But don't worry, Teacher. I will finish my work here before leaving. Maybe we can meet in the domain soon."
Andri couldn't hide the excitement in his tone. He didn't expect that the level that had troubled him for many years would be solved so quickly. It turned out that he had made the right decision to worship this teacher!
I am about to become a Shining Knight, and then I can join the legendary Dawn Guard organization. This childhood dream can actually come true.
Thinking of this, Andrei smiled even more happily. If he became the Dawn Guard, the status of his entire family and even his entire hometown would be improved because of him.
"Come on, becoming a Shining Knight is just a starting point. There is still a long way to go. I hope you can go further."
Although she had intended to use Andri as a tool when she first accepted him, he was still her student after all. Elina was happy for Andri's success and also sincerely wished her the best.
"Yes! Don't worry, Teacher Elina, I will still work hard even if I become a Shining Knight!"
As he spoke, Andrei performed a very standard knight's salute to his teacher, Elena, which was the etiquette a knight would give to the person he respected most.
"Teacher Elina, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After the salute, Andrei walked towards the place where the army was training. After this period of training, these new recruits have already taken shape. It happened that the war horses were delivered today, so Andrei would start cavalry training next.
"Andri is about to break through. I have to think about my own affairs next."
Looking at Andri's back and the army that was taking shape on the training ground, Elina knew that she didn't have much time left to leave and it was time to consider her next destination.
