As a tyrant, it's reasonable for me to snatch the heroine away

Chenxing looked at his few remaining tyrant points, and just in case, he exchanged them for a special magic item that was immune to illusions without hesitation.

If the situation is really troublesome, Chenxing doesn't mind sacrificing the relevant plot of Melody, just go all out and directly...

With the help of demonic powers, illusions may not be completely unable to affect beings like Melody.

If there is really no other way...

Thinking of this, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Chenxing's eyes.

Chapter 27: The Difference of the Morning Star

There were four knocks on the door, two long and two short.

After a moment, the same two long and two short sounds were heard in response, and the door opened a crack.

In the gap, there seemed to be an orc from the Canine Fang tribe, who was vigilantly checking outside the door.

But what he was checking was not Melody in front of him, but the empty alley behind Melody.

After making sure that she was alone, the door opened to Melody.

But it closed again the moment Melody entered.

The orc of the Hounds-fang tribe finally breathed a sigh of relief after hanging a special necklace on the door handle.

"I'm sorry, Senior Melody, the situation with the Houndstooth Turtleneck is rather special recently, so..."

The Houndstooth orc said this and stopped Melodie who was about to walk into the room, his expression was very serious.

Melody also knew something about what happened to Houndstooth High Collar.

Although it wasn't much, the surface information was enough for her to guess roughly.

After all, how could an existence that has lived through thousands of years not have this experience and knowledge?

"It's okay. It's a good thing to be careful..."

Melody smiled and didn't take it to heart.

He calmly lifted his hood, allowing the hounds-tooth orc to hold a special gem in his hand to perform magical exploration.

If there were other orcs present, it might be difficult to imagine that the Canine Fang Tribe, who were once the first among the Canine Fang High Lords, had completely abandoned the orcs' hostility towards magic.

In this very special and sensitive period...

As the light of the gem gradually faded, the vigilance on the face of the Hounds-fang orc completely disappeared, and his fingers kept tapping on the table beside him, and the rhythm sounded regular and orderly.

It is obviously the internal communication code of the Canine Tooth Tribe.

"Teacher, I'm really sorry that I can't go out to greet you in person."

A gentle voice came, and I looked in the direction of the voice.

The curtain covering the inner room was slowly pulled open by two servants.

It was a face that could be described as exquisite.

Unlike the rough skin of other orcs caused by wind and sun, the skin on that face is so delicate that even some human nobles cannot match it.

If it weren't for the dog ears on his head and the "sharp" fangs in his mouth, it would be hard to imagine that the other party was an orc from the Canine Tooth tribe.

Even after covering up the characteristics that only beastmen possess, the other party looks more like... an elf.

It is meticulously crafted, like a gift from God to the world.

Even Maria, the Saint of the Abyss, who is regarded by the Holy Nation as the most holy and elegant being among humans, is probably a little inferior to the other party.

This is a "perfect work of art" that can be described as a work of heaven, but those eyes...

The eyes that slowly opened were not as crystal clear as gemstones as I had imagined.

On the contrary... pieces of dead wood kept spreading in the eye sockets, as if they were about to penetrate the other person's skin and flesh at any time, twisting the most perfect work of art into lifeless wood.

Such a scene will make people who see it subconsciously think of a word...beauty is short-lived.

That sight was like a curse, destroying this "work of art" that could not even be described as a treasure.

"Is it still getting worse?"

Melody slowly walked forward and checked the eyes of the Canine Tooth girl. Her eyes were also full of... solemnity and guilt.

If it wasn't for my decision that harmed the previous Elf Princess, the girl in front of me, as the descendant of the Elf Princess, wouldn't have...

"It should be... the time of the ancient elf tree in the Elf Forest is running out. It's okay, teacher. This is my... destiny. Please don't feel sorry for me, and don't feel guilty because of me. You haven't done anything wrong. On the contrary... if it weren't for you, teacher, I might have died in the Holy Kingdom a long time ago..."

The girl smiled and consoled him.

It seems that even the end of the world cannot tarnish that gentlest smile.

Melody saw this expression, so how could she not...

Not to mention, the girl's every smile, word and action are so...similar to the other's mother.

"I was just... fulfilling my promise to your father, but in the end he was still..."

"It doesn't matter. After all, if it weren't for you and mother, father would have died a long time ago..."

The girl explained softly.

Even when she mentioned these things, her tone still fluctuated slightly.

Melody could also feel it clearly.

Especially when she looked at the girl's body that was so thin that it was almost... sick, she realized that she still had not fulfilled that promise.

but.......

still have a chance.

There is a way to undo all this.

An opportunity to stop the tragedy of the previous generation from continuing...

"I may have found the one who came this time, the one mentioned in the prophecy, so... don't worry, Beatrice, everything will be fine."

Melody said, forcing a smile.

Even if the other party couldn't see it at all, she still didn't want the girl in front of her to feel that sadness, or even that... despair.

That person, the one who has become famous recently, the king of the Kingdom of Grullit, Grullit Morningstar......

The probability that the other party is an Adventer is undoubtedly very high.

But here is the problem.

The Kingdom of Grulith, or rather, the attitude of Grulith Morningstar towards himself and the world...

At least it was very different from the three adventers she had come into contact with.

If.......

He could be a well-deserved hero, or he could be a scumbag who was hated by everyone in the past.

Even the mother of the girl in front of him was an Adventer who appeared unexpectedly.

No matter whether they are good or bad, kind and orderly or evil and chaotic, at least in their hearts... they all regard this world as a...

A world of flesh and blood, a real world to which they all feel more or less a sense of belonging.

But only this Grullit Morningstar...

Not to mention that she couldn't see through the other party at all, the other party's actions so far were also...

This is the difference.

To Grulit Morningstar, it all seemed more like... a game.

Be it the suffering of millions or the rise and fall of a country, it doesn't seem to arouse... much interest in him.

In Melody's opinion, the other party's actions...

Just as these Adventers have mentioned, the only things that exist in the world of Adventers are... players.

Such an existence....would it really be willing to help them and help the world?

Chapter 28 Could you please help me change it?

"This is my own business after all. If I drag others into this, forget it, teacher. Besides, it's fine the way it is now..."

Beatrice smiled and shook her head.

She understood that if it weren't for her, the teacher wouldn't have to care about the prophecy and the Adventers at all.

There was no need for her to place herself in the vortex of this world anymore.

No matter what the final result is, the teacher may be burdened with...crimes and infamy.

While the Advent brings salvation, it also brings death and change.

Those who hate and resist these deaths and changes will naturally point their fingers at...

The one who started all this.

Even for that human hero, the legendary Trial in the Temple, wasn’t the dragon race’s destruction behind his fame?

Just imagine, if the dragon clan still exists today, would they not hold a grudge against their teacher who caused all that?

My teacher has already endured too much.

The departure of a companion, the feeling of life fading away in one's arms...

Others may envy that eternal life.

But all Beatrice felt from Melodie was endless loneliness and self-blame.

"I can smell the fragrance of flowers and hear the cries of birds and animals... For people who can no longer feel these things, I am already happy enough, so... please don't feel guilty, teacher. Life... is accompanied by birth and death. This is also what you taught me, teacher."

Melody's expression dimmed slightly as she listened to Beatrice's words.

She almost watched the child grow up little by little.

But.......

Should we say that this world is so unfair?

perhaps.......

No, there is no fairness in this world.

"Anyway, since I have the chance, I should give it a try. I will go to the Elf Forest in person in a while..."

Melody made a decision anyway.

At least she couldn't be there to see it with her own eyes......

Just like before.

Watching the people around you disappear before your eyes.

in particular.......

Melody looked at Beatrice, and it was as if...that simple and kind girl appeared in front of her again.

"I understand. Please take good care of yourself, teacher. But you should be careful not to overwork yourself. Overwork for a long time will affect a woman's skin. It would be bad if you can't even find a boyfriend in the end."

Beatrice didn't continue to persuade her.

She knew what kind of person her teacher was, so instead of just trying to persuade him, she might as well...

Just like now, use a joke to ease the tense atmosphere.

Beatrice didn't like this nervous feeling.

Life should be a symbol of beauty, and it should always be beautiful, even if the end of life will eventually be withering.

"Girl... take this, the houndstooth high collar is popular these days..."

Melody said as she placed a gold coin engraved with a six-pointed star on the table.

As for the houndstooth turtleneck...

She didn't continue talking.

Because she didn't want the girl in front of her to get involved, and she didn't want the girl to go...
