After waking up

"At least Gormos did not betray me."

Nishelir put down the report in her hand, and Mengli on the side commented coldly.

"But in the royal guard, being too stupid is also a sin, and being weak-willed is not tolerated."

Grando was still reading a copy of the report and couldn't help but squint his eyes.

"According to Jonst's interpretation, some things can indeed be clarified. He believes that Gormos's loyalty to His Majesty is unquestionable, but he lacks the will to make progress and is not very firm. He has a relatively clear self-awareness of himself."

"Such a person would not dare to do anything out of the ordinary, but his power is very special and requires him to increase his activity, so he is exposed to more weird things, and his will has not continued to grow in this kind of stimulation. On the contrary, it is getting weaker day by day.”

Mengli nodded and answered.

"Then he met that guy. When Digo was causing trouble, he swallowed some of Gormos' familiars. At that time, Gormos was extremely frightened and vaguely sensed that the other person was coming towards him. This It may not be the opponent’s first goal, but Gormos’s intuition as a transcendent person still makes sense.”

"Yes, this is the stolen magic power that Gormos has been calling for, but basically no one believes him."

Nishelir's voice sounded at this moment.

"Except Mulan."

Mengli nodded in agreement.

"It has to be said that Jonest's insight is extremely sharp, and he was still a police inspector during the Digo riots and participated in the investigation. Although His Majesty asked him not to investigate anymore for his safety, it is obvious that he still I was keeping an eye on him secretly, so I was able to get in touch with today’s matter as soon as possible.”

Mengli narrowed his eyes as he spoke.

"Such a terrifying person seems to be related to the heresy in the temple. From the confession of Gormos, it seems that the so-called heretic still has faith in the Holy Light. It is really complicated!"

Grando said suddenly.

"Could it also be related to the mysterious man who confronted Jonster in Solons?"

"Not impossible."

On the train of the temple, there was a carriage that had been specially modified and blessed with many holy power runes, as well as shackles and metal fences. Gormos was imprisoned here. When the interrogation failed, he will be sent to the Holy Mountain.

As long as the Mirror of Truth can be used, the power of the holy object will force Gormos to speak, and he will definitely reveal the truth.

There were two bishops and six priests traveling with them, and Bundy was also one of the six priests. The man with the broken arm did not go with him because his injury was too serious and his priority was not high.

In the dark closed compartment, only a small kerosene lamp provided illumination. As the train moved forward, the hanging light swayed from time to time.

The train's "boo-boo-boo-boo" sound seemed a bit hypnotic.

Gormos, wrapped in rune chains, lay on the bed in a daze.

"Golmos, Golmos"

A hoarse voice sounded in Gormos's ears. After a few sounds, the exhausted Gormos opened his eyes, then his body trembled and he quickly sat up.

"Who are you and how did you get in?"

At this moment, beside the bed, a man wearing a thick black robe, even his face in dark shadows, was sitting there.

Gormos looked around nervously. The two priests guarding him seemed to have fallen asleep.

"Come on, come on! What are you doing? Someone is coming in!"

Gormos screamed, but received no response, and the man in black robes looked at him the whole time.

Finally, Gormos calmed down a bit and recalled Mulan's explanation. He forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart.

"Who are you? Are you setting me up?"

"Framed?"

The man in black robe seemed a little surprised in his voice.

"Am I setting myself up?"

"Own?"

Gormos's eyes widened, and then the shadow under the hood of the man in black seemed to fade a little. Although it was still dim, it was clearly visible that it was actually Gormos himself.

"Are you willing to be ordinary like this? Are you willing to be constantly used by others? Are you willing to die here? As an extraordinary person, are you willing to give up this prosperous world?"

"Evil, don't try to confuse me! I know who you are, you use my magic power to achieve your goals, and you are also connected with the heretics in the temple!"

"This is a special train for the Holy Church. The entire train has been blessed with holy power. You can't escape!"

Gormos's voice rose a bit.

The man in black robe looked at Gormos calmly.

"Face yourself, Gormos. You need to face your own heart more than the devil!"

"Don't mess with my will, you can't fool me!"

Gormos stretched out his hand, but the rune chains restricted his movements, and the man in black robe made no movement from beginning to end.

"Everything is a lie, everyone is using you, the Holy Church, Mulan Jones, even the Queen!"

"You are not allowed to blaspheme Her Majesty the Queen!"

Gormos' eyes widened and he was extremely angry. The Queen was more sacred than the Holy Light in his heart. He didn't care about the constraints of the rune chains. He rushed over, grabbed the man in black robes, and strangled his neck. .

"Die to me——"

Pfft~

The man in black robe turned into a black mist and slipped away from the fingertips of Gormos, and then reappeared in the corner of the cage.

"Sad, so humble, so weak, so timid, so mediocre, and yet you still have the slightest bit of impossible fantasy about Her Majesty Queen Nicehelil. This is you, Gormos!"

"shut up--"

Gormos was like an angry bull, desperately trying to rush towards the shadow, but the chains prevented him from getting more than two feet away from the bed.

"Admit it, Gormos, you are very ugly like this!"

"Shut up, shut up you devil! Where are the priests in the church, where are the bishops, the devil is here -"

The black shadow took a few steps closer, almost touching Gormos, but no matter how hard the latter struggled, he could not touch it.

"If I were the devil, shouldn't you find a way to fulfill your agreement with Mulan Jones first?"

Gormos' movements suddenly froze, and he looked at the man in black robes in disbelief.

"What are you doing"

"Oh, how could I know this? Oh, it is impossible for the dungeon of the Black Castle to be broken through silently, or is it under the eyes of many extraordinary people?"

"Yes, you are right, that is impossible, so why do I know about it?"

The hood of the man in black robe completely slipped off, revealing a face exactly like that of Gormos.

"Besides the fact that I am Mullan Jonst, there is a very simple possibility. I am you. I am you, Gormos. I am the projection of your heart. I am your desire. I am your unwillingness to be Hidden talent!”

Gormos' whole body was cold, but he didn't know how to speak.

"No one is trustworthy, and the same goes for the Queen. She watched you fall to this point. Mulan Jones is even more of a despicable villain! He wears the dazzling coat of a glorious knight and can easily gain the Queen's favor. He easily entered the Ministry of Magic and could easily preside over the reform of the Black Castle! But he is just a deserter on the battlefield, a country noble!"

"Should all this belong to him? All this should belong to you, the dedicated guardian of the queen. You are His Majesty's guardian knight!"

With the sound of these words, Gormos seemed to see the past in a trance, saw his glorious moment, saw himself who was once full of confidence in everything, saw the bright future, and also saw the first time he met When Princess Ness Helier was.

Gormos' eyes changed from dazed to unwilling, and tears overflowed from the corners of his eyes.

"I am His Majesty's guardian!"

"The shadow is the power given to you by God, but you have been unable to let go of yourself and truly understand the power of the shadow. Maybe now is the time!"

Gormos raised his head, and the rune chains were no longer stretched.

"Do I have any chance now?"

"For those who believe in themselves, it's never too late, Gormos, believe in yourself!"

The man in black robe took a few steps closer, and Gormos subconsciously took a step back. He saw his face and the calm and firm look in his eyes.

"Now that everyone has abandoned you, it's time, Gormos, it's time, it's time to embrace yourself, embrace the power of shadow, you are a shadow demon, not a clown!"

"Open your heart, Gormos, and the world will see your talents. Resonate with me, Gormos, and the power of the shadows will gather around you!"

Behind the man in black robe, a pair of dark wings were slowly opening.

"resonance."

Gormos saw the rich black color on the man in black robes, saw the pair of black wings, and felt the surge of magic power from the same source.

"Can I also have such a powerful power?"

"It's okay, Gormos, this is your future, it's our future, get to know yourself again!"

The darkness is opening its arms.

"When the world abandons you, the power of shadow is always by your side!"

Gormos relaxed completely, opened his arms as well, and murmured to himself.

"Accept yourself and become your true self!"

At this moment, the power of darkness was completely integrated into Gormos's body. Dark shadows covered the sky, and dark wings spread behind him. An unprecedented sense of power arose spontaneously from both body and mind!

"Uh-huh——"

With a tremor, Gormos woke up from the bed. He shook hands, but he was still weak and his body was still so tired. He lay back on the bed and covered his face, with two lines of tears flowing down his face.

It's just a dream, it's just a dream, how I wish it was true
