Chris's Faith of Fire

Page 87

Yvette never sought out Sir Riprestel to tell her troubles, nor did she want to believe her sister.

She chose the power of the devil and the wrong evolution over her loved ones.

In the end, he ended up looking like his body and head were separated.

But is this sin?

Veda's words still linger in my mind.

Leech children are born without ever seeing their father...

Most of them were abandoned by their mothers and became orphans.

That’s why the mind becomes more and more distorted and goes astray.

They may be the leech that no one wants to talk about, but Veda, who also lost her parents, is the host of the elves, and it is not an exaggeration to be called the Holy Son.

Is the difference between them just whether they have strength or not?

Miss Yvette has spent her life pursuing strength and evolution.

"Only with strength can there be freedom."

Veda said this last night.

Powerful demons left these children behind according to their own desires.

Weak people abandon them because they are afraid of commitment.

In this way, all the sins are attributed to the leech children?

So, killing them all will eliminate the original sin?

Deathstroke Town is located in the borderland, but one day it will be occupied by the Demon King.

Or the Holy See, who discovered that the Cardinal was dead, would send out Holy Knights to search this small town.

No matter which one it is, Deathstroke will inevitably suffer.

Those orphans will surely end up in a tragic end.

However, even if the leeches disappear...

Sin will still be born everywhere in this world.

Chapter 77 77. Choice

The summer morning came much earlier than usual, so she was two holy moments ahead of schedule. Before the sun rose above the water level, Ladia had already brought Ollie to the south of Leerbar.

She put on a linen cloak and a gray hood so that no one could see her too dazzling silver hair.

"Why not use illusions?"

Ollie asked, looking up at the strand of silver hair peeking out from the hood.

Although he knew that Ladia was not interested in illusions, he should be careful no matter what he said at this time. After all, if the Duke's men discovered it, everything would be over.

"It will leave traces of Mana, and high-level wizards will feel it."

“So that’s it, Lati also has her own considerations~~”

I don't know why, but this boy always shows unusual optimism in the face of any critical situation.

Latiya didn't know how to describe it. Was it because she was naturally calm and calm?It doesn't quite fit, it would be better to say that it feels a little dull.

It is precisely because of this that Ladia does not want to involve him in the vortex of her own fight.

Ollie is too naive, too innocent...

"But I heard that there is a hair dye on the market. Although the effect is not as good as illusion, it is very practical. It was created by the people of the wind."

Ladia smiled at the boy and told her uncertain rumors.

Perhaps in the boy's eyes, Latiya's smile in front of him was too tired.

"If that's the case, do they have a potion that can make hair grow longer?"

"I think should not be……"

However, it is difficult to be sure. No one knows what weird things the people of the wind will do.

When Latiya was a child, she once visited the market. At that time, she noticed a fire dragon puppet that could fly. Although she wanted it very much, she turned her head away from the stall and gave up what she had within easy reach.

Her identity is determined at the moment of birth.

Destined to become a warrior and destined to live for the country, Latiya implemented this will well in the end.

"It would be great if Lettie had long hair!"

"Ugh?"

Faced with Ollie's simple words, Ladia was shocked.

She would only take it as an insult when the nobles said this to her, because she had already shown her determination as a knight in front of them.

However, the boy's innocent praise made her unable to get angry.

She hoped that she would grit her teeth because of these words, but she couldn't. In the end, she just smiled at the boy.

"You really want to see my long hair?"

"Well, it must look good!"

The boy waved his hands and said with an exaggerated expression.

“Haha, okay then, I’ll show you next time~~”

"Huh? You don't have to wait until next time. I'll just watch Lettie's hair grow longer."

After all, we have plenty of time together after leaving this city...

"Well, that's what I said..."

Faced with the boy's enthusiasm, Ladia only responded lightly. If this was still a peaceful era, she would not talk to a little boy from a poor background.Fate is such an elusive thing.

The stone path gradually became wider, and Ladia seemed to have seen the red reflection on the sea level creating a glow where the sky and the sea connected.

The territory of Leerbar is as vast as the territory owned by the royal family. Although Ladia came here for the first time, she was still amazed by the exquisite stone buildings in Southport.

The statue of Lone Wolf is built on the high wall of the harbor, and the stone roads extending to both sides are also good trading ports.

As the sun gradually rises into the sky, the world begins to become brighter.

The impurity-free sky extends to the edge of the world. Seagulls surround the wooden sailboat, and some stop on the mast to take a nap.

The white stones and the blue sky and sea seem to blend into one, making people feel extremely satisfied.

There were gradually more and more people, including sailors preparing to unload goods and small traders preparing for the morning market.

Ladia patted Ollie on the shoulder.

The little boy was slightly frightened and almost jumped up. Ladia smiled slightly when she saw this scene.

"It's still a while before we meet, let's go for a walk."

"Really!" The young man was very excited, as if he was about to jump up.

"Well, that woman gave me a lot of money. A little luxury is okay. Is there anything you want to eat, Ollie?"

The young man thought for a long time, and finally pointed to a barbecue stall nearby.

Probably because it was sprinkled with spices, the fragrant smell came over, and even Ladia felt her stomach growl.

"Then let's go to that restaurant. You wait here and I'll buy it back."

"Yeah! Thank you, Lettie!"

The young man stood by the harbor, watching the crowds coming and going, including men, women, old people... and children of similar age to himself. No one looked at him, and hurriedly walked from the young man's side. Passed by before my eyes.

After a while, Latiya came back.

She took a full kebab wrapped in cloth and gave a large portion to the boy.

"Wow, there's so much we can't eat!"

"Really? I'm sorry, because the seller said that if you buy too much, you will get some for free."

"Ha ha……"

"What's the matter, is it funny?"

"No, I really didn't expect that Lati would be deceived by such a common method~~"

"Ah...hum, I haven't been to the market very often..."

The princess blushed, and even through the hood, she seemed to be able to see her embarrassment and shyness, but it was not an annoying expression.

The boy happily ate the meat skewers until he finished the last one in his hand.

"Uh, huh~~so full."

"There are also drinks."

"Alas! What is this!"

"It is said that the juice is squeezed from wild fruits in the south. It is very refreshing."

The young man picked up the kettle and drank without hesitation.

"It tastes good~~but it's not cheap."

"It doesn't matter, it's only today."

Ladia said as she took out her handkerchief and wiped his lips.

"Hmm~~ I always feel like Lati today is like a mother, no... like a sister."

The girl stopped what she was doing and smiled at him.

"Really? Then you have to be stronger in the future."

"Hmm! Sigh... I'm a little dizzy, Letty... what on earth is..."

Ollie suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell to the cold ground. Ladia gently took the boy and looked at his closed eyelids, breathing calmly.

It seems that he is not sleeping deeply yet.

Too much sleep medication can be dangerous, so she cut back.

For this young man, this is the best choice.

At this time, a man came from behind. He had been waiting for a long time and was wearing the same hooded cloak as them. He was the "Spider" that Ingrid had mentioned before.

"Your Highness Ratty...the scheduled ship is about to leave."

"Send him to the Holy Kingdom, and give this letter to Cardinal Patricia."

"What about you?"

"I stay here..."

"Your Highness Lati, I can't explain this to you, sir."

"No, I will tell her. Or would you rather stand here and wait for the boat to leave?"

"...I understand, please explain it carefully."

Turning back to look at the sailor who had already started urging people on, "Spider" could not waste any more time.

"I will."

After the brief exchange, Ladia quietly watched "Spider" take the sleeping boy onto the scheduled ship, and watched the ship slowly drive away.

"We will definitely meet again, but now, I must return to my own battlefield."

The girl muttered to herself, tightened her hood, turned and walked away.
