Quack! The life of a brave man is also a life!

"Okay, one thing has been done." Leng Bai nodded silently, waved his hand and announced vigorously: "There is no need to stay."

The next second, the positions of Leng Bai, Nafta, and Kolia were slowly swallowed by the black space.

They are leaving.

"Demon King!! Are you trying to escape!!"

When Lilith saw Leng Bai and the others were about to leave, she pulled out her long sword and roared angrily. She couldn't stand her current weakness, a weakness that was more uncomfortable than death!

Leng Bai, who was about to be swallowed by the black space, couldn't help but smile when he saw this scene.

Lilith, you are full of awareness at this moment and have really grown up.

However, your current understanding is wrong.

The so-called enlightenment is to open up a new golden avenue under the dark night sky! Rather than thinking of you going all the way to darkness like this.

The next moment, Leng Bai raised his hand and brushed his short hair upwards. His slicked-back hair full of villain charm appeared. He looked at Lilith with a smile and said sincerely:

"Don't bluff, that will only show your weakness."

"Demon King! I will never let you go!" Lilith stared at Leng Bai with hatred.

Leng Bai turned his back and stopped paying attention to Lilith, but his voice did not stop.

"No one stands in the sky from the beginning, neither you nor me, not even God. But the window period of the throne of heaven is about to end."

"From now on, I will stand on the top of the sky."

"Can you keep up?"

The moment the words ended, Leng Bai and others also disappeared into the hall.

Leaving behind was Lilith with an angry look on her face, Ritter who was seriously injured and unconscious, and the stunned guard captain and others.

…

After Leng Bai left, Lilith took Ritter to the hospital as quickly as possible.

Although there is healing in this world, there are still hospitals. For illnesses and recuperation treated in hospitals, there must be a church next to the hospital.

After the church priest got the news, he rushed there as soon as possible.

The treatment staff showed shock after seeing Ritter's severed hand and arm, and their eyes were full of helplessness.

"I'm very sorry. There is nothing I can do about such an injury. To treat such an injury requires someone above the level of a bishop to use regeneration. I can only stabilize the injury and make the brave man less painful."

"As long as he can be treated, I will arrange for someone to send the brave man to the imperial capital as soon as possible." Lilith breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes full of exhaustion.

In this way, after the medical staff stopped the bleeding and treated him, Ritter was out of danger.

After sorting out Ritter, Lilith was found by the housekeeper just as she was about to take a rest.

"Miss, you can't rest yet. The Marquis said that if he dies, then you will be the Marquis. From then on, all things will be left to you to arrange. This is the letter that the Marquis left for you. I hope you will read it after reading it. Destroy immediately."

The butler took the envelope out of his pocket and handed it to Lilith.

Lilith's face immediately turned sad when she saw the envelope when she was still surprised that the housekeeper was alive.

She silently took the envelope, "I understand. Thank you, housekeeper."

"There are some things that need to be accepted. I believe that you, Miss, can make the best choice." The housekeeper looked at Lilith seriously.

"?"

This made Lilith feel a little strange, and she looked at the envelope in confusion.

choose?

Is there something else going on in this matter?

Making a decisive decision, she mustered up her energy to open the envelope and read it eagerly.

Dearest Lilith.

When you read this letter, I believe everything will be settled. Although this matter has nothing to do with you, it is already necessary.

I am being targeted by the king, and my existence has become the person the king must kill.

Taxes are what the king wants. He just wanted me to be ruined and executed in the name of justice.

Don't be surprised, Lilith.

The king was not a good man, otherwise he would not have declared the brave man dead in vain.

Leng Bai is not dead, he is cursed by the king. Although his appearance has not changed, no one who sees him will think that he is the brave Leng Bai.

So, I collaborated with Leng Bai.

I created a conspiracy to deceive the king, which not only prevented the king from receiving taxes, but also allowed me, the golden cicada, to escape from my shell and live in secret.

And you, my dear daughter, Lilith.

You will be a visible character, but don't worry, your father will help you in the dark.

Leng Bai requires me to do something in the dark.

I'm so sorry, my daughter, I lied to you.

But... this is a last resort.

Remember, don’t mention it to anyone, you have to be strong enough to accept everything.

Also, the new hero cannot die. He is the key character in deceiving the king. He must be allowed to return to the imperial capital alive.

Paris stay.

After reading the letter, Lilith's expression changed from the sadness at the beginning to a frown, her face darkened and she became silent.

Soon, her eyes turned sharp as she looked at the housekeeper again.

The letter was burned.

Lilith looked in the direction of the room where Ritter was, with a hint of fierceness.

"No wonder...no wonder my father didn't let me get involved and didn't dare to speak out..."

She grew up among nobles and had seen too many struggles, and now she wanted to join this struggle.

"Then...he is truly a brave man. It turns out he has come back."

Thinking of Leng Bai's situation, Lilith felt a sense of grievance in her heart. She was so perfect, but she was cursed by the king.

Is this your answer to your loyal people?

country! king!

I will definitely avenge what happened to my father and Leng Bai!

Lilith was filled with determination at this moment.

Volume 1: Chapter 31 This plot... seems to have been seen somewhere.

the next day.

It was almost noon when Ritter woke up from his coma, and the sunlight outside the window shone on his face.

When he opened his eyes, he heard the voices of nuns and nurses for the first time, "Master Brave, how do you feel?"

"Huh?" Ritter raised his hand in confusion and found that he had no feeling in his right hand. When he looked closely, he found that his right hand and right leg were both bandaged. The broken arm was also reattached, but he had no feeling.

The nurse seemed to notice Ritter's confusion and explained.

"Sir Brave, although your hands and feet have been reattached, you still need regeneration to fully recover."

"Really? I understand, thank you." Ritter nodded with a sunny smile.

"Sir Brave, you rest first while I go find the Marquis." The nurse stood up to leave.

"Master Marquis?" Ritter was suddenly confused. Isn't Paris dead? Died in front of himself.

The nurse explained again, "Now the Marquis is Miss Lilith, and she has inherited the position of Marquis Paris. The city cannot live without the Marquis, otherwise there will be trouble."

"So that's it, her?" Ritter nodded thoughtfully.

Soon, the nurse came in with Lilith.

Lilith saw Ritter waking up and smiled tiredly.

"Hero, I knew you were fine."

"Hahaha... Can this be called okay now? What happened after that?" Ritter smiled awkwardly and asked what happened next.

Lilith walked to the chair in front of the hero and sat down, telling Ritter what happened next.

"The devil didn't take action and let us go. He left with the taxes... but my father will never come back." She said this with sadness in her eyes.

"My condolences." Ritter looked at Lilith guiltily. If he had arrived earlier, that kind of thing wouldn't have happened.

"Don't feel guilty, you have done enough." Lilith sighed, "Now that I have inherited my father's position, I will continue to follow my father's will. I want the people here to live a better life. Life is still better than when my father was alive.”

"You can do it, I believe in you." Ritter looked at Lilith with an affirmative look and encouraged her.

"Thank you." Lilith smiled, her eyes full of longing.

She added, "Your injury cannot be treated until you go to the Imperial Capital. I will arrange for someone to take you back to the Imperial Capital."

"Excuse me, I obviously didn't do anything." Ritter looked at Lilith apologetically.

Lilith said negatively: "It's not that you didn't do anything, this city was saved by you. Everyone is very grateful to you. If it weren't for your appearance, no one knows what the demons would have done to this place."

"Thank you, brave man."

"Even if you say so..." Ritter was not happy at all. Looking back on this incident, he had accomplished almost nothing. Lying on the bed, my thoughts were a little confused and I looked lost.

Then, Lilith arranged for people to escort Ritter back to the imperial capital.

When leaving, the surrounding residents came out to thank Ritter after hearing the news.

"Thank you, brave man!"

"Brave, thank you for saving this city."

"Thanks."

"Thanks to you."

The residents on the street looked gratefully towards Ritter, who was sitting in a wheelchair being pushed by guards and preparing to leave.

Faced with the thanks from people around him, Ritter's face was full of embarrassment. He never expected to be so grateful, even though he had done nothing.

He felt guilty about this.

"Sometimes, people don't care about success or failure, they just want to live happily and peacefully, and that's enough."

Lilith, who was walking aside, said with emotion, looking at Ritter with a deep look in her eyes.

Everyone just wants to live well, have something to eat, something to wear, and to have their own friends and relatives. It doesn't matter who is right or wrong. However, someone wants to destroy such a small thing... Brave man, you are in the wrong position.

Leng Bai was probably aware of this... so he acted together with the Demon King, right?

As a result, Leng Bai still didn't escape and was cursed by the king.

Ritter... I hope you will notice the king's problem sooner. You are a good person and should not be involved in this.

Lilith looked at Ritter, who was embarrassed about the residents around him, and was filled with emotion. Now she could only watch.

A little while, the gate.

Ritter looked at Lilith with a cherished expression.

"That's it. There's no need to send it away."

Lilith looked at Ritter sitting in the wheelchair and said apologetically: "Sorry, Ritter."

"I'm the one who should apologize." Ritter smiled freely.

"Then, goodbye."

"Well, bye."

Ritter was pushed into the carriage by the guards and drove towards the imperial capital, leaving Lilith standing there waving goodbye.

When the carriage was completely out of sight, a man shrouded in a cloak walked out from the side.

"It's time to go back." The man said to Lilith with emotion.
