Beginning as King of Elden

Chapter 169
"Hey, hey, you don't want to go to the mansion of the volcano, do you?"

Patch followed the faded man, asking with a suspicious expression.

To be honest, for this extremely generous friend, Patch really didn't want him to go to a dangerous cave like the Volcano Mansion.

but……

Feeling the aura of owning five big runes and personally killing two... oh no, three demigod knights, Patch is not sure which side is more dangerous.

"Yeah." Shaking the invitation letter in his hand, Li Lin nodded with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be a member of Huoshan Mansion."

The knight raised an eyebrow.

"Hahaha... you have to have someone to rely on." Patch said sarcastically.

"Don't go over there."

Heading towards the volcano mansion, before a fork in the road, Patch suddenly said to the faded man, motioning him to turn left.

"why?"

"There is a terrifying giant beast on the mountain over there. Oh, just avoid it."

The knight nodded and walked directly to the right.

"Hey hey..."

"I don't care if you want to die!"

----------

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Above the high mountain peaks, there were constant terrifying explosions.

It's like there are two giant beasts from the wild...

No, it's like meteors are constantly falling on the top of the mountain.

Paqi opened his mouth wide and stood under the mountain, looking shocked at the surging sword energy, the bursting purple thunder, and the rolling rocks on the top of the mountain.

Is that faded person already so strong...

After all, it was the Faded One who killed the Broken Star General Lataen.

However, the speed at which his strength improved was too fast.

Less than half a year had passed since the World Championship.

This kind of momentum is not inferior to the general at the beginning.

Soon, the battle at the peak came to an end.

There was no more sound from the top of the head, and after waiting carefully for a while, Patch couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and quietly climbed up.

As soon as the shining head protruded from the corner of the mountain, Patch looked at the Faded One.

He was sitting on the huge star beast corpse, drinking the blue holy grail dew in his hand.

After drinking the dew, Li Lin jumped down and walked in front of Paqi.

"Continue to lead the way."

"it is good……"

Facing the current Cavaliers, Patch could no longer speak the usual witty words.

----------

"Fadeers, welcome to the Volcano Mansion."

"My name is Tanis, and I am the owner of this mansion."

Beautifully dressed and crowned dancers greeted him.

Beside her, there was a knight in full armor holding a large sword upside down.

"Hello."

"La Ya mentioned you before and heard that you are a talented person with great potential."

"Then please allow me to ask and confirm your wishes again."

"Would you like to join the Volcano Mansion and fight side by side with us?"

"Fight alongside?"

The Faded One repeated with a strange expression.

"Yes, fight alongside us."

Tanis couldn't read the meaning in his expression, so she repeated patiently.

"The guidance of blessings, the arrogant empty words of fingers. Everything that is imposed, we do not intend to obey..."

"We will raise our swords against the Golden Tree."

That's right.

No wonder the faders are being killed.

However, to believe him so much, do you think he will definitely choose to betray Two Fingers and join their camp?
Li Lin turned his head and looked at the tall knight beside Tanis.

I was underestimated.

"Okay." He said with a smile, "I will join the volcano mansion."

"Thank you for your positive reply. In this way, you are one of us."

She paused, "At the end of the corridor, there is a guest room for your use, please treat it as your own home."

own home?

The knight almost lost his expression.

"Next, please take care of me."

The girl stretched out her white left hand.

"Take care of you."

The knight also stretched out his left hand covered with red markings, and took it.

--------

"Why are you here?"

Met someone who knew him.

"Volcano Mansion is a lair where traitors who desecrate blessings and hunt their own people gather."

"Do you understand what this means?"

The man in thick silver full armor asked her this.

"Of course." Li Lin nodded.

"If you understand...I won't say much."

The man's tone was low, "I thought you were a model among faders."

Bernal wanted to say more, but after meeting the knight's dark eyes, he couldn't say anything after the traitor.

"...It's good to do it for yourself."

"From what you said, you don't want to hunt your compatriots?"

"..." Bernal was silent and did not answer the knight's words.

"Why?" The knight looked at him seriously, "Please tell me."

"...I want revenge on the Golden Tree."

For some reason, looking at the knight's face, Bernal couldn't help but answer him.

"...Because of the witch's death?"

Looking at Bernal's sad and angry eyes, Li Lin asked subconsciously.

"...Have you come this far?" Bernal replied, "Yes...after all, you are a 'hero' who has killed several demigods and has a 'king status'."

He spoke with sarcasm.

"Then, you can probably understand a little bit how I feel."

--------

"Why did you join the Volcano Mansion?"

Li Lin asked the bald head.

"Hey, what kind of blessing guidance, and two fingers, I agree that it is bullshit."

Patch squatted on the ground and said disdainfully.

"Since someone has two minds and intends to catch him off guard, I think it's not bad to help out."

"Also, I think Tanis is very interesting. I don't know who the master behind her is, but seeing her confident appearance, it's okay to publicly declare her intention and ambition of molesting, and she still has an awe-inspiring attitude. "

He said mysteriously.

"This is the first time I've met that kind of woman."

"Have you ever killed a faded one?"

asked the knight suddenly.

……

----------

"Have we met?"

Li Lin said.

"Well, I saw you in the round table hall, I didn't expect you to come here too?"

"And why did you come here?"

asked the knight in goat armor.

"It was about revenge...but, Ms. Tanis said, I have what it takes to walk the path of a hero."

"A real hero will deliberately choose a dirty and unclean path."

"After listening to it, I felt enlightened."

As if remembering something, the traitor opened the conversation.

"Sigh, the fate of my maid is indeed cruel and sad, but if I am affected by that 'cruel' and 'sad', I will not be able to become a hero."

"So she must be able to understand that this is my fate and hers."

"...This is the so-called hero's path."

real or fake……

The knight who has the ability to see through lies found that his words were sincere.

This guy is helpless.

"I've always been looked down upon. These white hands don't look like soldiers should."

"I am considered a disgrace to Khosrow..."

"Okay, okay." The knight interrupted the clown's words with a smile.

"Have you ever killed someone?" He stared into the eyes of the fair man. "I mean those upright faded people who belong to the round table hall."

An abyss-like sense of oppression.

Diaros's mind went blank instantly, and his sense of fear made him only able to answer the knight's question.

"...No, no."

"Very good." The knight smiled and patted him on the shoulder, and the feeling of trembling like hell disappeared like an illusion.

"Live in another place." The handsome knight raised his eyebrows at him playfully, "This is not a good place, don't be fooled."

That's not an illusion.

The seeds of fear had already taken root in his heart.

Facing the knight's kind suggestion, Diaros could only stiffen his body and nod silently.

It was impossible to refuse him.
