She Chooses To Destroy the World

After the conversation with the Great Mother, Alice only felt dizzy.

She is a mercenary, and she is really not good at thinking about these things that are too metaphysical. In the conversation with the Great Mother God, she only made one point clear:

The great mother **** thinks that she will be the key to awakening Circillian and subverting the belief in the **** of light.

In Alice's opinion, this is really too high for her. She doesn't know what virtue and ability she has, and she has high hopes from this ancient god. But she didn't have much pressure on it. After all, this matter was beyond the scope of normal people's imagination. Alice had no real feelings about it, and naturally it was not stressful.

What really stresses her is the box with the beaded crown in her hand. This thing is now in her hands, and must be taken to West Felix in its entirety, without breaking it at all. Ordinarily, this thing is meant to be worn on the head, so it will not be too fragile. But Alice looked at the thin golden thread and couldn't bet on it.

Earl Rachel seemed to have no intention of imprisoning her here. After Alice left the reception room of the Great Mother God and Olivia, a maid came to tell her that a carriage would come and send her back to the front of Rachel’s mansion. Then she can leave freely. Just in order not to reveal the location here, she needs to cover her eyes with a black cloth before getting into the car. Alice wondered if Earl Rachel had brought her here, and did not take her weapons, and let her take Olivia’s crown, she probably didn’t have to embarrass her at this time, so she He obeyed the arrangement and got into the carriage with his eyes blindfolded.

Sitting in the carriage, Alice released the mask from her eyes, only to realize that there was another person in the carriage-Earl Rachel was sitting opposite her at this time and nodded to her.

Embarrassment, this is truly unparalleled embarrassment.

When I met Earl Rachel last time, Alice used clumsy techniques to seduce him, and she put a knife around his neck and almost cut his throat. A few days before this incident, she listened. A lot of the bad stories about Earl Rachel's youth were not yet digested, and now she was sitting in the same carriage with him.

No matter how she looked at it, Alice didn't want to have anything to do with the man in front of her. She moved out and pressed against the car wall, just trying to stay away from him as much as possible.

Earl Rachel has been sought after by women since he was a teenager. At this moment, seeing Alice treat him like a snake, I didn't think it was too much, I only found it interesting, but deliberately talked:

"You and my master have finished talking. Now, only the business between you and me is left."

Alice glanced at him warily:

"I probably have nothing to say with you."

"Why is there nothing to say, at least so far, you are still a super mercenary. And, I don’t know if you remember, you kidnapped me before. According to Born’s law, civilians hijacked nobles, at least 30 years. The above imprisonment, even if sentenced to hanging, is justified, and no one will feel surprised."

Oh yes, it's really bad.

The earl has law enforcement powers in Born, and considering that she did kidnap him before, he can indeed throw her in the cell to get moldy until she rots inside. Even if the Earl was mercifully forgiven her for her sins, as the owner of the mercenary guild, he could make her life very sad by just moving his fingers a little. In any case, this mad believer Earl, who is not very normal in spirit, is really not easy to provoke, at least until she arrives in West Felix safely and the duchess fulfills her promise and officially makes her a knight, she really shouldn't offend him.

Or to be more realistic, maybe she should find a way to please him.

Master Roma once taught her that mercenaries don't need to be disciplined. Everything is subject to immediate actual interests. Alice can imagine that if Master Roma encounters such a problem, he will definitely slip on his knees immediately, offer the earl the most sincere apology that can be found in human history, and then speak all the nasty things in the world from beginning to end. Again, until the earl agreed not to pursue it again.

But when I thought of the perversion hidden under the count's polite appearance... Alice felt it was very difficult to try to please him. She is still too young, no matter what her master said, the simple sense of justice has not yet completely faded from her heart. It is a bit difficult to make her immediately turn into a slick mercenary like Roma.

She didn't want to offend the earl again, and she didn't want to say anything to please, so she had no choice but to pretend to be stupid now. The corners of his mouth raised and squeezed an ugly smirk:

"Hey-hey."

Count Rachel had never seen anyone smile this way in front of him in his life, and covered his eyes with a bit of pain.

"Forget it, let's talk about business. I don't know what the Duchess promised you, maybe you want to leave the guild directly. But I can tell you clearly, if you plan to leave like this, I won't let you go."

Alice also knew that the existing number of special mercenaries in the Mercenary Guild was not enough. If it weren't for this reason, she hadn't been so easy to become a special mercenary before. It’s probably useless to pretend to be stupid now. Alice made a choice between jumping off the car and talking to the earl, but decided not to escape:

"What does the count want me to do?"

Count Rachel put his hand on the window and tapped gently with his nails:

"Listen to my master, you are a believer in the God of the Future. Considering that the God of the Future may wake up soon... you do have a place to help."

"Um?"

Alice didn’t believe that the God of the Future would wake up in the near future, but when this matter was talked about by the Great Mother God, it seemed to be very close, and then from the mouth of Earl Rachel, it was almost like this matter will be tomorrow. It happened the same.

"Do you also believe that the God of the Future will wake up soon?"

"What will happen to the God of the future, I'm not sure." Earl Rachel said, "But I know that the rule of the God of Light is not monolithic and will end sooner or later. Now I have smelled the taste of before the storm. But I am not qualified to say this. The faith of the Great Mother God will be annihilated at some point. People like me are destined to die on the eve of the birth of the new world. It can be regarded as a deadly death."

Having said this, a bitter smile flashed across the corner of Earl Rachel's mouth, as if he had fully accepted the ending.

This surprised Alice:

"I thought you were a fanatic and would want to try to turn the tide."

"Of course I am a fanatic." Earl Rachel made no secret of his enthusiasm for the faith in the Great Mother God. "The so-called fanatic, in addition to maintaining the enthusiasm for the faith, the most important thing is to absolutely obey the gods. When the gods have accepted After the annihilation of the body, believers should also recognize the facts and be martyred by their bodies. In my opinion, enthusiastic believers are far from qualified."

Count Rachel made a grand talk about mad believers, with crazy light in his eyes. Just as Alice was considering whether to continue talking to him, he recovered calm again, and then returned the topic to the original position:

"Close to the subject, since you are the only believer in the God of the Future, you can definitely know the date of his awakening in advance. I want you to promise me that you will take Olivia away on the eve of the God of the Future waking up."

Alice didn't expect the earl to make such a request to her, but she didn't say anything for a while. The earl seemed to think she didn't understand what he meant, and immediately explained:

"When the God of the Future wakes up, the Great Mother God will probably annihilate with the other gods. If Olivia stays here, he will probably die."

Although Alice did not meet the earl much, but after a few contacts and listening to the stories told by them, I can see a little bit of the earl's character. I only felt that the human touch in his words was not in tune with his whole person, which made Alice somewhat suspicious:

"I thought you didn't love her and didn't care much about her life or death."

"I really don't love her... But she was not a believer of the Great Mother God, and she shouldn't have died here with me... I owe her a lot, which is a bit of compensation."

This is actually ruthless enough, I don't know what Olivia would think if he heard him say this. But for Alice, if the earl could let her go by just agreeing to such a condition, it would be a really good deal.

"I promise you."

"That's it." The earl nodded and raised his eyebrows to look at her. "Don't think that I will die then, you can do whatever you want. I have prepared an enchanted ring for the contract. Have you heard of this thing? ?"

As he said, he took out the ring box he had prepared and handed it to Alice.

Alice has heard of the ring of contract. She worked as a mercenary, and when she took on some special tasks, she had also entered into formal contracts. The kind usually requires a magician to put a magic signature on it to ensure that the contract itself will never be destroyed. In contrast, the ring of a contract is not so much a token of the agreement, but rather a tool of punishment. If the wearer fails to complete the contract, he will be burned out by the magic fire escaping from the ring.

Generally speaking, the ring of the contract must be made in pairs in order to bind both parties. But Earl Rachel has only one ring here. Obviously Earl Rachel didn't want to take the risk to wear this stuff. Of course Alice didn't want to, but she didn't seem to have much choice.

She took the ring:

"You have prepared this kind of thing a long time ago."

"Bohn has my exclusive magician here. It is not too troublesome to prepare a ring in advance."

The style of the ring is quite simple, with some magic patterns engraved on it. Alice compared the ring to her hand and put it on her index finger. The enchanted ring was immediately tightened, holding her fingers firmly. Alice tried to pull it down, but the ring didn't move.

Sure enough, this ring might not be able to be taken down before the end of the agreement.

At this time, the carriage had pulled them to the door of Rachel's mansion. Alice and the earl got out of the car, and the earl helped her with his hat as a salute:

"When you give the crown to the Duchess Felix, don't forget to tell her, and Claude greets her."
