Page 271 [What are you afraid of?]
"So it's me?"
In the dark night, the man covered in scars, who had been hit by the terrible impact, looked at Chen Senran and tried hard to smile.
"Why do you want to follow me?" Chen Senran's tone did not ease.
Tonight he has a strong murderous intent.
So even if the man he was carrying was the man who could radiate the strongest light in the darkest church, he had no intention of stopping.
Although, they can be said to be without grievances or grudges.
"Why do you follow me? I think...this is the question I should ask?" The dying man was still smiling hard, although he had already felt the murderous intent coming from the hand holding him.
"Why are you spying on me?" Chen Senran asked in another way without answering.
"You want to kill me?" The other party also refused, trying hard to support his body, and looked at Chen Senran with a dignified look.
"I can't kill you." Chen Senran also looked at him and used his closed eyes.
"You'd better kill me. I smelled the aura of those disgusting shadow creatures from you." The man smiled more and more unrestrainedly. He looked at Chen Senran and said word by word, "I don't need the mercy of the shadow creature, which makes me feel disgusted."
He is true and fearless.
"It's just a pity..."
"It's just a pity that you will never see your wife again, Lucian, right? If I remember correctly, you are called Lucian, right?" Chen Senran took it before he could finish speaking.
That day he experienced the entire process of the light and dark war in the dark church, and naturally heard all their conversations.
Also, their names and past events.
"You..." Lucian's fearless face finally had a hint of fear. He stared at Chen Senran's face hidden under the darkness and mask and said, "How do you know?"
"You'd better answer my question first." Chen Senran still held him and said without hesitation.
"Someone said that Thresh had found you." Lucian finally gave up resistance, or he finally had some concerns. His wife he loved was better than life.
"Thresh?" Chen Senran chewed on the name.
He doesn't know him.
"It's the Warden of the Soul Lock. The Demon wandering on the Continent." Lucian said with gritted teeth.
"Oh." Chen Senran nodded. He remembered that it was the one who carried the old lantern in the dark sacred temple with the power of Shadow Dismason.
"I don't know him. I haven't seen him."
"You..." Lucian smiled, as if he was disdainful.
"Do I need to lie to you?" Chen Senran asked.
"It seems not." Lucian frowned.
"So, who told you that Thresh has come to me?" Chen Senran was more interested in this question.
"It's...a bartender." Lucian hesitated for a moment, but still vomited out the answer.
"A bartender?" Chen Senran vaguely thought of something.
"The bartender in the Summoner's Tavern." Lucian's answer confirmed Chen Senran's conjecture.
Joey...
The night suddenly fell into silence.
There was a faint sound of footsteps in the distance. It was probably because the people from the War Academy Public Security Bureau had finally started to move out.
But Chen Senran stood there and seemed to be indifferent.
He seemed to be in deep thought.
And Lucian didn't say a word.
He longs for life, but he is not afraid of death and flees in panic.
"Puzzle--" Finally, Chen Senran seemed to have finished the long exam, and he threw Lucian back into the pit.
"You are free." He left only this sentence and began to walk out.
"Wait." Unexpectedly, Lucian called him.
"..." Chen Senran didn't say anything, but just turned his head slightly.
"You really don't know Thresh?"
"I don't know." Chen Senran stopped stopping and walked towards darkness.
"Hey, how do you explain? You will have that kind of aura similar to Shadow Island?" Lucian still refused to give up.
"If you think I am your enemy, come and kill me."
———————————————————————
This night was destined to pass in panic.
More than a dozen streets were permeated by huge terrifying forces.
Although there were no casualties, such panic incidents during the Summoner's Canyon Conference were undoubtedly challenging the authority of the entire War Academy and even the Supreme Council.
The entire War Academy Public Security Bureau was mobilized, and everyone was ordered to arrest the destructionist and sentenced to death.
But the result is definitely nothing.
After their busy night, they also received direct orders from the Supreme Parliament, which is said to be the Supreme Parliament.
Stop investigating this incident immediately, keep all the same as before, and maintain public order.
Seeing this order, the director of the Public Security Bureau was said to have been so scared that he even fell to the ground for breakfast.
Of course he realized that he was almost involved in a field that he could not have peeked into.
So he immediately stopped investigating and the War Academy returned to peace.
It seemed as if nothing had happened, but it was a dozen streets.
—————————————————————
Of course, Chen Senran was not afraid that there would be people from public security stations to come to him.
As usual, he got up at eight o'clock and had a breakfast slowly.
He walked towards the Mage Tower in the luxurious carriage prepared by the Council to attend the third day of the Summoner's Canyon Conference.
Carriages travel through the huge complex of the War Academy.
On the last way to the Mage Tower, Chen Senran's carriage broke into a remote road.
And as his carriage entered this road, another carriage also provided by the parliament, which was specially used by the city-state delegations of various countries, followed.
The two carriages quickly drove side by side.
In the gap less than one yard apart.
"I've killed the man, what are you going to do next?"
"You really confirm that you killed her?"
"Don't you believe me?"
"No, it's just that she's very cunning. In history, many experts who are proficient in assassination have assassinated her. Many people firmly believe that they have killed her, but..."
"I said, I killed her."
"Okay, I believe you, you are our own people. Next, we want to ask you to persuade her to join us."
"I... I'm afraid I can't do this for the time being."
"What are you afraid of?"
"I am here……"
What are you afraid of?
Yes, what am I afraid of?
Chen Senran asked himself this, and suddenly thought, have I really killed her?
The carriage separates and continues to move forward.
ps:
Second update.
The feel is OK.
