The dark red moonlight penetrated the gaps between the rotten leaves, sprinkling on the body curled up in the mud.
Seventeen bodies covered with purple bruises were trembling.
Their nails dug deep into the damp humus soil, and the blood that seeped out from between their fingers merged with the mud after the rain.
As the last paladin tightened his gold-studded belt, his boot sole crushed the girl's shattered right hand.
A laughter more mournful than that of a night owl rang out in the woods.
The silver armors soaked in holy water glowed with a cold light, and the 'long sword' that once protected the empire was stained with the girl's blood.
The leading knight wiped the blood-stained holy emblem, and the reflection of the cross showed the broken lilies on the ground.
Just like the sisters who withered forever in the Goblin Cave three years ago.
“Dirty container.”
The knight's saliva drew a silver line in the moonlight and landed accurately on the girl's festering ankle.
"This is trash that is not even worthy of being a sacrifice."
In the mud, in different positions, rooms, and places, seventeen pairs of eyes shrank at the same time, reflecting the scarlet cracks in the sky through the tattered roof.
The sounds of the world echoed in their minds at the same time.
[I already know your desire]
[Become my Lord's follower, and I will grant you the fire that devours your desires]
【Believe in my Lord! The humble one! 】
"Yes!"
Almost without hesitation, seventeen long-dislocated mouths uttered hoarse sounds.
boom!
In an instant, some kind of power descended upon them.
They have power.
Got it, take revenge on those people.
The power to take revenge on those who looked down on them and abandoned them!
The moment the contract rune burned on the retina.
They heard the crisp sound of their bones breaking and reforming.
The originally dark and empty pupils turned red, as if blood was flowing and shining behind them.
She, they raised swords, knives.
When the first knight's head flew up, his blood-red eyes were extremely bright under the moonlight.
The girls licked the warmth that splashed on their lips and found that the taste of revenge was sweeter than the breast milk in their memory.
They used their sharp swords to cut open the silver armor, amid the knights' miserable wails.
The organs that once boasted their might were strung together into blood-red wind chimes and hung on the branches of oak trees scorched by the sacred fire.
When dawn broke through the bloody night, the surviving villagers saw seventeen human-shaped amber statues standing in the clearing in the forest.
It was a monument of revenge forged from the entrails of knights, solidified with three hundred and sixty-five distorted faces.
The leading knight was made into a perpetual fountain, his skull embedded in a crystal chalice, which continuously gushed out a black liquid mixed with regret and fear.
They succeeded in their revenge.
And, meet the people who serve for life.
The figure standing in the blood mist was so beautiful and sacred, like a god hanging high in the sky, making people want to kneel down.
These girls believe that only God can give them such power.
However, God doesn't seem to care about them.
In his eyes, there was only the elf with an angelic face, Victoria, his mother.
They are very lost.
Because, compared to such a dazzling existence.
No.
They can't even think of comparing.
This dirty body is destined to be unable to serve such an existence.
but.
Lady Victoria accepted them in all their filthiness.
Then in Victoria, Her Majesty the Sovereign.
The Hundred Demons Village they established.
Hunting and self-sufficiency.
When Victoria said this was their home.
They are very happy.
Finally, they belonged.
Their home.
And they, the most beloved monarch.
Even so, His Majesty the Monarch had a cold face and never smiled at them.
But they are already very satisfied.
They don't ask for anything extravagant.
No, they were not qualified. Their dirty bodies would be a disgrace to His Majesty if they were even seen by him.
How dare they ask for more?
It is a great honor for them just to be in the same place and look at each other.
They were very happy at that time.
Every day I spend hunting, devouring raw meat, and becoming stronger.
I hope that this little bit of power that is constantly accumulating can come in handy.
Past experiences became the source of their desperate efforts.
One experience like that is enough.
I thought it would continue like this.
But God played a big joke on them.
Those demons have come again.
They burned their homes.
Destroyed the village
Once upon a time, the brave warriors of their empire, representing justice and kindness, drew their swords against them.
That was a one-sided crushing.
"sorry"
Obviously, I have made up my mind to protect it.
"sorry"
They couldn't even protect His Majesty's village.
"sorry"
They were manipulated so easily.
The purpose of these people is most likely Lady Victoria or His Majesty the Monarch.
They became obstacles.
"sorry"
They keep apologizing for their incompetence.
Resent your own weakness.
Although the soul was broken and imprisoned, the emotions engraved in the soul made the corpse speak involuntarily, creating a strange scene.
"sorry"
and.
When they are reborn on the scene.
When they were resurrected by the monarch.
When they know what the monarch has done for them.
Inside, there was surprise, shock, and joy.
It was not the joy of rebirth, but——"It turns out that the monarch also sees them!"
Even a glance was enough to terrify them.
But then, this ecstasy overwhelmed the shyness and uneasiness, and turned into even stronger admiration.
Reshape the body and condense the soul.
Then, resurrection.
This is the power that belongs to God.
From that time on, their lives, bodies that were not tainted by dirt, and even their souls all belonged to the Lord.
and so!
They won't back down!!
Even if the other party is a powerful elf princess.
They will never retreat even a single step!
"you--"
Victoria looked at the people in front of her and felt a warm feeling in her heart.
She could feel that these girls truly trusted Ye Yan.
They are not afraid of Ye Yan, nor are they afraid of Ye Yan's power.
But I sincerely want to protect him and help him.
"Oh?"
The Elf Princess smiled with some interest at this, a playful smile on her face.
"After seeing my strength just now, you still have the courage to draw your swords against me?"
The elf princess' words were full of contempt, as if she didn't take these fairy girls seriously at all.
However, Hongyan and others did not show any fear or retreat.
Their eyes were firm and cold, and the long swords in their hands flashed with cold light.
"Our lives are given by His Majesty the King."
Hongyan and others said in unison.
"Now, it is just a tiny contribution of this cheap life."
As soon as the words fell, Hongyan and the other fairies raised their swords, the tips of the swords flashing with cold light, and attacked the elf princess in unison. (End of this chapter)
