The King of Knights in a Different World

There is no music, only the echo of the world is left, the tower gradually collapses, and everything in front of us seems to be coming to the end of the era.

Sensing the aura of the people around her tightly, Al firmly grasped Lucifer's hand, she was afraid that this was a dream, and worried that everything in front of her would disappear after waking up.

"This time, never let go of my hand."

She put away her disguise, revealing the timid truth beneath her arrogance.

"Even if Al lets go first."

Lucifer responded.

"Never avoid me."

Al lowered his head, very unsure.

"Even if Al is shy, I will take the initiative."

Lucifer gave encouragement.

"Never abandon me."

"If Al is willing to stay by my side forever."

After saying this......, the clothes transformed by Al's magical power disappeared, and she fainted on Lucifer.

Known as the Dragon Witch, she took the initiative to put the key to seal herself on Lucifer.

no.78 Ruling, burning at stake (asking for votes, asking for flowers)

On the plain of night, Arturia stared closely at the sky, the giant dragon had stopped moving for a long time.

Taking Lucifer just absorbed as the boundary, it never moved again.

Originally, Siegfried planned to take this opportunity to rescue the king.

But his move was stopped by Giorgios, not to mention what will happen to their actions.

Under the condition that they couldn't guarantee not to hurt Lucifer, he didn't dare to take any action.

Otherwise, even if they defeated the dragon, but lost the king, it would be tantamount to failure.

Artoria did not participate in the discussion between them, she just stared at the dragon in the sky, the sword in her hand was always ready, and her right hand was already on the heart.

She quietly felt the fluctuation of Avalon's magic power, it was very quiet and there was no madness there.

This reaction reassured her a lot.

Avalon's magic power comes from Lucifer, in order to ensure its normal operation, she often replenishes magic with Lucifer.

Correspondingly, if Lucifer is in danger, Avalon's magic power will also be disordered.

Now the magic power is very calm, she can feel more or less at ease.

This is why the loyal knight has no action.

Soon, the sky changed again, the figure of the giant dragon seemed to be weathered like a rock, starting from its wings, its body turned into red magic power and disappeared in the sky, until it finally reached the heart.

When the part of the heart also turned into magic particles and disappeared into the sky, two figures appeared there.

Under the moon, Lucifer was hugging a ball of black cloth, and in this long cloth, a young girl was sleeping peacefully.

Lucifer's figure slowly descended from the sky until it landed on the ground.

At this time, Artoria finally put down the sword in her hand, and she quickly came to Lucifer's side.

"Master, are you alright! Is there... Where is the injury? Is there any... Magic..."

Artoria's voice is very stable, but her too fast speech reveals her true mood.

Now that there are people next to her, it is impossible for her to greet them privately.

This is not only because of herself, but also in order not to affect Lucifer.

"Leah, sorry for worrying you."

Lucifer apologized first.

As a king, he doesn't need to apologize to the knight, but as a lover, he can't make her worry either.

"No.

I believe you will return safely, all I need to do is wait.

she is"

"The witch of the dragon is also a girl with a sad life experience."

After Lucifer finished speaking, Artoria looked at the sleeping Al, with sympathy in her eyes.

"Jeanne's Sister"

"Um.

Let's go! The matter here has been settled, let's go back first."

"yes!"

Lucifer brought Artoria to Siegfried and the others, and after briefly explaining what happened to them, they returned to the place where the knights were focused.

After that, Lucifer gave an order to let everyone go to the glorious fortress that has not been fully built, instead of staying on the plain overnight.

When the next day dawned, Lucifer was now preparing to solve the problems left before.

Criminals in this town.

First of all, there are a dozen or so leading money takers, Lucifer asked Agguiwen to announce everything from the investigation, and especially emphasized that the dragon's awakening was because of them.

As a result, the anger of all town residents turned to these people in an instant, and these residents roared angrily to burn them to death.

Originally because of Joan's protection yesterday, many people already felt guilty towards their sisters, but now that they have been completely tricked, their anger can be imagined.

If it wasn't for the knights maintaining the scene, those people would have been torn apart by the residents.

Afterwards, Lucifer received more than a dozen corresponding convictions according to the law.

Interestingly, their crimes were classified as sedition and conspiracy to murder.

Both crimes carry the death penalty, but the methods of death are different.

The latter is guillotine beheading, as for.

"Now, according to the king's order, I officially sentence the thirteen people in front of me to be burned at the stake!"

Agguivin read the verdict on the stage.

The residents gathered under the stage boiled instantly.

"Fire! Burn them!"

"Kill these bastards!"

"Framed those two sisters for money, you are not human."

"It's a devil!"

"Evils are more merciful than you!"

"You... scum!"

...Once upon a time, the punishment they planned to use on Joan of Arc fell on themselves, and they also had to face these...sharp eyes.

In a quiet attic high above, Joan of Arc was looking at the burning below with some unbearable heart.

She looked at Lucifer.

"King, they!"

"Are you sympathizing with them? These people have no need for sympathy.

Who do you think your sister is still in a coma for?"

Lucifer looked down calmly, no matter how screaming below, Lucifer's expression did not fluctuate in the slightest.

Or in other words, the self who has seen too many hells will no longer be fluctuated by this kind of scene.

"I know, but I just don't think this kind of burning is..."

Cruel! This is a word that Joan did not say. Lucifer is praised by the British world as a virtuous king. It seems that the word cruel should not appear on him.

Most people think so.

However... "If you think it's too cruel, I don't deny it.

After all, I am the one who made this punishment, but it was originally made to punish rebels.

Do you know, Jeanne.

The so-called death penalty is actually not set up for those scumbags below, but for other people.”

One year ago, when the rebellion happened, Lucifer considered the methods of those instigators, and naturally associated it with religion.

Don't they like burning to death, Lucifer has defined burning to death as a kind of death penalty.

Only those who have committed the most heinous crimes will use this method of execution. If there is a situation in the future, it will also let those... Church members experience the feeling of being burned once.

"In order to prevent others from making the same mistake, they were executed in this cruel way.

I know.

But sometimes I also feel that if there is a better way to show the warning to the world."

Jeanne said softly.

It's not that she doesn't understand, she just thinks that this will give people a cruel image.

Regarding this, Lucifer smiled slightly.

"Naturally good like you!"

"I don't."

"I would be glad if all the people in this country were like you, because the punishments I have laid down are abolished, and no one will use them again.

Let them be sealed in the corner of history forever, I think that is the best destination for... the law.

But Jeanne, you are gentle, but the world is not as gentle as you."

Lucifer sat on the throne and stood up, he walked towards the front desk as if talking to himself.

"Even though life has become abundant, there are still demons growing in people's hearts, and people are still jealous and resentful of others.

That's why the existence of legal principles is needed, and the laws are used to regulate their actions, and the principles are used to teach their hearts.

In the end, the legal principles were silently buried in history.

If that day really comes, there is no need for me to exist as a king."

Lucifer thinks that the best destination for... them is... to be buried in history and gradually forgotten by people.

If everyone in a world has a deep understanding of the legal principles of the law, then the legal principles do not need to exist.

That would be an ideal social environment.

The so-called legal principles actually exist more often to correct the distortion of the world, and their existence itself means that this world has "evil" that cannot be erased.

Jeanne stared blankly at Lucifer's back, as if she had walked into the king's heart for the first time.

What can I say I am very gentle.

The gentle person is actually you, Lucifer.

It's just that this gentle way is a bit too cruel.

Compared with you, I am far behind.

Jeanne hesitated and took a deep breath.

She walked towards Lucifer's side, and said firmly.

"King! No, Lucifer! I've decided!"

"Um."

"I'm going, to your world.

I also want to see that kind of world come, no, I believe that day will come."
