Part 15
Shameless offer
What was a demon hunter?
In the past, humans used to be a race that ruled the earth, beloved of God. Other races had been seen as mongrels. The demons, in particular, were accused of causing the disaster. It was a sin that cannot be cleansed forever.
But when things changed, when there was wisdom, people pondered and understood. Now everyone understood that the difference in life was acceptable. The word 'demon' was actually a creature with slightly higher physical abilities than a human. They had strange abilities, a little misdirection, aggressive nature, liked to use force, but they had no different from humans.
Actually, no matter life was equal, no matter what life was worth, and no matter life... they were all fools.
Although people learned to understand each other, there were still some conservative people who followed the rule of discrimination. They spread hatred and created wars that shouldn't happen in many countries. One of those wars was the war from ten years ago that nearly collapsed the entire continent. Demons were victims, but they were still viewed as villains to this day.
Currently, the devil hunter warriors standing under the umbellar of an ancient sect, claiming a divine decree, appeared in the control of the Prince of Kafka.
Was this still a small thing? This prince who was actually a disciple of a hate cult was a real offender.
"I smell the pungent demonic smell. There are demons among you, right?" said the one who appeared to be the leader, pointing at the five intruders who were now unable to see their faces because of the magic blocking them. But it smelled like a demon.
The first smell was a pungent devilish smell that entered his nostrils. Another was a light scent, this was the signature scent of a half-demon, but a demon was still a demon. Even if wrapped in beautiful skin, the demon was a sinner.
"If you send us those demons, I can spare the rest of you."
With these words, if you didn't know anything, you would think that the other party was merciful. But everyone here knew that this was bullshit!
"Stop a lie!" Sangtis opened his mouth and pointed at the cursing face first. He was one of those people who had seen the nature of these hunters with their own eyes.
These people liked to talk like this. But they never thought of keeping their word.
"You're demon hunters, seeing the demon, it means killing. Whoever associated with them had to be dead. If I believe your words, then I'm a fool!" he said, taking out the mask he had from the gala and putting on his face, he had to maintain Rigel's status first. So, no one should see his face now.
Sangtis still thought of surviving, other people surely thought about themselves first. Sidel now transformed into a lion. The purpose was, he did not need to be seen too. He was still Ozlo's ambassador.
"Oh, you know it's wrong, but still associate with them. That's it, you guys are just stupid enough. Now, let's all die together!"
KABOOMMMMM!!!!!
The sound of an explosion was very loud. Sangtis spread the light spell before moving forward. Of course, he was a Knight of Light, so this attack was quite unexpected.
"You are a knight serving God!! Why did you go to the side of the devil!!!"
"Nonsense! Where is that crazy god! In this world, there are neither gods nor evil. There are only sinners!" Sangtis cast a magical attack. Behind him, Lauriet spread magic, preparing to escape. In times like these, retreating was definitely the best and most appropriate strategy.
But, if they could escape easily, would this still be a special territory for Prince Darius!?
At that moment, the ground beneath their feet screamed. Sangtis suddenly grabbed Ragnes and hugged him while others felt the fall.
"This's a trap!" Sidel roared, actually under the ground was a huge trap. They just accidentally cast a curse that sent them underground!
KLANK!!!
Now, the five of them were actually sent to the underground. Sangtis hurriedly lit a fire in a nearby radius. Only darkness could be seen. There was a faint, foul smell. This scent didn't have to be told, they knew it was the smell of blood.
Someone was dead, someone was killed, there was blood and corpses. Even Caberus, who was mad along the way, clenched his fists in frustration. He then walked in the dark. sweeping eyes slowly. In the end, everyone stopped at a large hole in the middle of the room that seemed to be central. There was still a very miserable groan in the pit.
"This is…" Sidel, although an outsider, was shocked and taken aback.
What was this? Was there anything like this in this day and age?
"What a bastard!" Caberus shouted helplessly. Of course, in the well was…
Demons!!!
Many demons were captured and killed!!
Sangtis could not wait, he increased his magic power and lit up the whole area. But after doing it, he felt that he really shouldn't do it. It was disgusting in this tunnel. The pits where the demons had been crammed filled the floors, corridors, and walls, all covered in blood, some corpses slowly rotting. This was the dump. Behind this mansion was where Prince Darius and the hunters used to kill the captured demons.
Ragnes got it. Caberus wanted to come here for this. And this was what Prince Darius was hiding. Under the gentle that everyone saw him, it turned into irresistible cruelty. Was this what the prince chose?
If in the future, he had a chance to become the King of Kafka. That meant that he would definitely start a genocide.
Prince Darius absolutely could not be a king!
"This… what happened?"
Oh!
At that moment, Ragnes was startled. Because the tone of Sangtis's voice suddenly changed. When he turned around, he saw…Rigel's innocent eyes.
"Atia, this is where I… how did I get here?"
"Rigel?" Ragnes head turned around immediately. This was something that was expected to happen someday. In such an awkward moment, an important battle force like Sangtis returned to amnesia. Damn! "Are you Rigel?"
"I… I am Rigel. Why are you asking that?" Rigel's head hurt. And now he found himself unable to remember how he came to such a strange place like this.
In front of him was his wife whose right hand was injured until his finger turned dark purple. The wife's companion holding a black skull-shaped staff like a dark magician. A grumpy stranger with a distrustful appearance. A lion whose fur looked very fluffy. And corpses of many demons.
His memory was very confusing. It was as if he knew where he was, why he came here, but at the same time couldn't remember, what the hell was he doing!
But before he could ask because it was then that they heard all the loud announcements. This was Prince Darius' voice. The prince was making an announcement to everyone in the underground.
"Five stupid intruders have now entered. I will announce the hunt. If any hunter brings all their heads to me first, I'll give you a reward, don't forget, it's all five heads!!!"
"Prince... Darius." Rigel could hardly believe his ears. But even if he didn't believe it, he had to believe it now.
The Prince of Kafka met with the hunters. Outlaw arrested demons and imprisoned them. And even though he didn't know what exactly happened but the Prince ordered to hunt them all!
Ragnes gritted his teeth in anger. Using his hand to splice his broken fingers in front of his husband until Rigel could barely stop crying. But Lauriet, who saw it, stepped in to help him with the bandage. Lauriet's gaze was very gentle, seem more anxious and caring than a friend's. Of course, Rigel was very annoyed by this gesture.
He tried not to think but now it could be seen that Lauriet was playing the role of intimacy beyond just friends!
"What's going on here?" Rigel asked, interrupting. But his words caused Caberas and Sidel to see something wrong. They themselves also noticed that this person looked strange.
But asked if they had to care? The answer was surely no!
What they were most interested in right now was their own benefit!
"Kill them all! Drag the person behind them and cut them into pieces! Here we go!!!" Caberus roared, the reason he came here was for this purpose, kill the hunters, kill Prince Darius. Wiped out all the enemies of the demons!
"But I think I'd better run away, however, this has nothing to do with me directly." Sidel himself made a clear stance that he didn't want to get involved. He just wanted to come to save Ragnes from Caberas and showed he wanted to be his bridegroom in the future. In addition to the political issue, not his benefit "Ozlo still continued being a good neighbor with Kafka. Even if Prince Darius breaks the law. It's something that needs to be discussed later."
"Huh, what a diplomat with interests leading the way," Caberas interjected.
"A warrior has a warrior's tradition. Diplomats too," Sidel replied, smiling. Even when he was in the lion's form, he was very polite.
These two people had a clear standpoint. But Ragnes was overwhelmed with the situation he was facing. One person announced his intention to kill, another person prepared to leave. As for his husband, his memory was deteriorating again. Only Lauriet was in a state of preparatory listening.
This work didn't make sense. He could only see the future that all of them died here. It was terrible!!!
"I don't mind if you kill the Demon Hunter. But if Prince Darius breaks the law, it must be said according to the rules of the country. You can't kill him here!" Although Rigel was an amnesiac, he still had the courage to offer his opinion. Whatever happened, he did not give up!
Of course, if the prince died now, whether he was right or wrong would become a big deal!
"Hey, you're an idiot! Are you crazy? Are you waiting for another war to happen? Don't pretend to be a good person! I'll kill that prince.! Keep your head away! Oh, as for Ragnes, I'll take him myself!" Caberus saw that the other party had a problem, but he didn't care. Now, he stubbornly confirmed his intentions. As for Rigel, hearing the other party said this would be a bit angry.
"You kill the prince right now and then start a war! One of the princes died thinking that the story would end easily?! More importantly, Atia is my wife! Do you think you will easily kidnap my wife! You idiot!!" Rigel scolded back as he wrapped his wife in his chest. His brain was still confused, but let's just say he didn't like this bastard in front of him. Any crazy person who only thought about killing and stealing other people's wives!
"What a bastard! You should die first!"
"It's you who will die first! Where do you think your big self came from? You savage heretic!" Rigel said, preparing to cast a spell. Sidel was now preparing to sneak away. Lauriet just stood there smiling.
As for Lauriet, he felt he had no interest in this matter. This was an argument of the candidates. As for him, he only had the duty to support the King. What did he want to do? What did he want to decide? Whatever…
his work was still going on, but it was a bit awkward in his heart, he couldn't tell what feeling this was.
If he was not a friend of Sangtis. Not the person that Ragnes trusted the most. What exactly did he really want to do? Wasn't that right now he should be the one who hugged Ragnes in his chest? Or was he really playing the secondary role in the soap opera too much?
"Huh," he sighed to himself. Some things you could think of but couldn't say.
KABOOMMMMMM!!!!!!
After arguing, now a bomb suddenly landed in front of them, bouncing them in different directions. The hunters arrived but the five of them still thought in different directions, completely devoid of unity. That side came as a unity army. As for them, they were fewer people and they didn't have a good relationship at all. Ragnes would think that this was the absolute disaster of them!
Ragnes clenched his fists, feeling extremely annoyed: Sangtis, Rigel, Caberas, Sidel, even Lauriet. Could you make things a little easier?!
"Shut up everyone!!!"
Huh!!!
Hearing Ragness screaming very irritatedly, and then everyone really froze, they had some hesitations, wondering what the person in front of them was going to say. It appeared that Ragnes turned to Lauriet.
"According to the law, if I want to marry again. What do I have to do?!"
"Oh, if this is the case, as the ruler of the kingdom. You have to do it the same way. Bring your spouse to the official marriage ceremony, registering and signing official documents," Lauriet replied flatly.
"What about divorce? So, I'm not a husband and wife with Sangtis now?!" he asked, wanting confirmation.
"As the ambassador said, by law, if you've been abandoned for a year, you're divorced by default. A new marriage is possible. If you're a commoner, just staying together as you did with Lord Rigel would be enough. It's unfortunate that you're not," Lauriet replied eloquently.
Before, he didn't mention this because he didn't think there would be a problem. As long as they could bring Sangtis back to Wetonia, everything would be a happy ending. But now his king seemed to have other ideas.
Pray not to be reckless and not to be too greedy, my King!
"Good!" At that moment, Ragnes cast a spell. The skull mantra shone brightly before his trusty weapon giant scythe appeared in front of him. The King tightened his grip on the hilt of the weapon before turning to face the clashing candidates. "Then I have an offer!"
Hmm?!!!
"We're all together, get out of here! Don't kill Prince Darius! But collect as much evidence as possible! If you can do it, I promise to consider your marriage proposals!!!"
"Atia!!!"
Rigel screamed, but Caberas and Sidel's eyes showed unexpectedly. Meanwhile, Lauriet holding his head.
What was this?
This offer was equal to accepting an official marriage proposal from the others and then agreeing that Sangtis was only one of the candidates. He was now just sex partners, as Caberus mentioned a moment ago!
This meant Ragnes would have three fiances right now!
"Atia…" Rigel was very dizzy, feeling like fainting, but the other two were not at all dizzy.
"Okay, then! I'll kill as much as I can, but as for Darius, I'll keep it for you!" Caberas said with a smirk.
"If your majesty offers something interesting like this. I don't think it's bad at all. Then I'm not going to run away." He didn't think of escaping now. But ready to crush, suddenly there was such a good thing that it was impossible to ignore it.
Right now, there must be only Rigel whose face was black and very stressed. But even if he didn't know anything. He knew that he couldn't back down!!!
"I don't know what this is about. But we can talk later, so don't think I'm going to hand over my wife to anyone!" Rigel announced, gritting his teeth. His wife could only have one husband!
The three men were very serious. As Lauriet shook his head, he was wondering how to make a face or what to say.
"Hey, are you including me as a candidate? I did the labor for you too," Lauriet asked jokingly. but Ragnes made a face of annoyance. Now, he felt ashamed enough to dare to have three fiancées at once. This one dared to ask something like this again!
"Do you want to be? Can I deny anyone now? Do whatever you want!" said Ragnes, very irritated. It made Lauriet laugh. He shook his head and smiled as he always smiled.
"No matter who makes you embarrassed, my King, that person will never be me." he then kissed his broken fingers.
Shit!!!
At that moment, the three men over there seemed to be hit on the head at the same time. While they were battling each other for their status here. Someone pretended to be a good guy!!!
This guy! Lauriet, they couldn't keep him alive!!!'
