Quadruple split

Game time PM19:27

Southwest Continent, Northern Territory of Griffin Dynasty, Likud City

“A very rich drink.”

On the tallest tower in the noble district, the chief of staff of the Dreamland Theocracy, Lamorlock, who was wearing a monocle, slender figure and a kind smile, let out a sigh of contentment and then put the half cup of coffee in his hand back. In front of him was the priceless luxurious long table made of red elm. He lowered his eyes and looked at the bloody, cruel, absurd, cold and crazy 'magnificent' scenes under the tower, and sighed: "It's very efficient. of massacre.”

"..."

Half an hour ago, she was the master of this city and the most favored woman of the younger generation of the Howard family. Merav Howard, who has dazzling long golden hair, delicate face, and beautiful body, bit her silver teeth gently, but did not face the person in front of her. The man who was about to turn Likud into a dead city swore harsh words and just took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

Then--

"I see."

Lamorlock, who seemed to be watching the massacre under the tower, but was always paying attention to Merav's condition, slightly raised the corner of his mouth and chuckled: "So, you really didn't mean to trick me into beheading me at all, but Simply...to protect Mingzhe, he betrayed his family, soldiers and people, right?"

Merav opened her eyes again with a pale face. After a long silence, she asked in a terrifyingly quiet voice: "How can you see it?"

"Because you dare not face those tragic deaths, because you dare not listen to those cries before death. My dear, although you appear very strong, we must admit one thing, that is, you are in deep trouble now. In deep fear.”

Lamoroch smiled and said leisurely: "In my hometown, there has always been a proverb, 'Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door.' And you, respected Ms. Merav, at least recently, I’m afraid it will be difficult to get a good night’s sleep in the past few years.”

Merav twitched the corners of her lips and said dryly: "Maybe, but at least I still have the capital to sleep well, and that's enough."

"And this is precisely the basic logic that allows us to stand here side by side and watch the 'scenery'."

Lamorlock nodded happily and said sincerely: "I am deeply happy that you have not been able to become 'part of the scenery'."

Merav tried twice, but finally failed to force out a decent smile, so she had to ask in a flat, dry voice: "So, just because I just closed my eyes, you arbitrarily think that I have no possibility of premeditation." Will you be killed here?"

"hehe……"

Perhaps because the word 'arbitrary' made him laugh, Lamorlock couldn't help covering his mouth and chuckled, and then explained in a calm tone: "This is enough, my lady, at least in my opinion. "For a hero who plans to sacrifice everything and die with his opponent, remembering this tragic and desperate scene without missing any detail is helpful to strengthen his determination and ensure that he has the courage to be decisive enough when he really takes action."

"..."

Merav fell into silence again. After a long time, she clenched her fists and said with a trembling voice, "I could have done this."

"oh?"

Realizing that the other party seemed to be giving a wonderful speech, Lamorlock raised his eyebrows and picked up the modal word very wisely.

"Listen, General Staff Lamolock, even now, I am willing to sacrifice everything for a rational and wise family, including my own life, but the premise of all this is that my family must be worthy of my sacrifice!"

Merav stared into Lamorlock's eyes and said angrily: "I have seen through it a long time ago! I have seen through it a long time ago that the essence of this war is not a chauvinist empire at all. In my Griffin, a crown prince died, so that The small country and your Dream Kingdom declared war on us in order to uphold justice! In the final analysis, this war is a self-directed drama between the Logan family and the Chauvin Empire and the Dream Kingdom. The only purpose is to give us to the royal family! The nobles who have been in trouble for too many years are torn out! Let us be the only victims in this deliberately staged conflict!”

Lamorlock smiled slightly and praised sincerely: "She is indeed the perfect girl whose popularity is second only to those two pearls among the younger generation of Griffin Dynasty. As far as I know, if you are not a descendant of the Howard family, just based on these Judging from his performance this year, the title of Grand Duke Howard may not fall on Fast Howard.”

"I have no desire for the title of Archduke Howard, and the only way to be loyal to the family is to inherit it."

Merav replied coldly and said expressionlessly: "What I can't tolerate is that after I clearly told them my worries, those rat-eyed people who have been blinded by the so-called engagement actually think that I'm jealous that Fast got such a good opportunity, and I think I'm an alarmist and just want to ruin the doomed engagement between that idiot and Gavel Logan!"

Lamorlock nodded slightly and said casually: "So that's it."

"It's so stupid!"

Finally finding an outlet for her complicated emotions, Merav, whose face was flushed, raised her fist angrily and said angrily: "Who doesn't know that Fast Howard wants to get involved with Her Highness Gaweier! And those who attended that dinner Who doesn't know that the latter is infatuated with Arthur Bohe of the Chauvin Empire! With the Blood Lion's love for his two sisters, I'm afraid that even if our Howard family threatens to defect to the Silver Wings Alliance, he will never do it. Allow that stupid toad to take one more look at Gaweier!"

Lamorlock looked like he suddenly understood, and continued to provide emotional value to this sincere lady: "In that case, what about the engagement you just mentioned, Ms. Merav?"

"You don't need to think about it to know that it was Her Highness Elisa's idea, but even she would never allow that idiot Fast to really get engaged to Her Highness Gaweier. If you think about it carefully, you will know that the reason why the Logan family I am willing to make this promise just to draw the Howard family over!"

Merav sneered and said with a gloomy look: "And our family leader who usually calls himself a far-sighted person, after hearing the word 'marriage', he was like a dog with meat and bones, his brain is extremely smooth. He accepted the sincerity of the Logan family and sincerely hoped that his great-grandson would become the next Great Griffin!"

"So, the reason why Ms. Merav secretly contacted me and colluded with our army to hand over Likud City is not because a person who is afraid of death is living an ignoble existence and seeking glory as a seller, but because the Howard family talks about it. Your correct warning was ignored and manipulated by the Logan family. "

Lamorlock grinned and said, "Understandable."

"The General Staff does not need to use hidden words to hurt others."

Merav took a deep breath, calmed down her slightly excited mood, and said coldly: "I know very well how disgraceful what I did is, and I don't intend to defend myself even half a sentence. I contacted you secretly simply because even without me, Likud City was destined to be destroyed by your crazy and unreasonable offensive. Considering what you have done in the past, I have enough reasons to believe that, including me, Everyone in Likud City will be killed, and retreating to the south on your own will only give the Logan family an excuse to launch an attack. By then, I and my followers will still be dead."

Lamorlock suppressed the smile on his lips and asked concisely: "So?"

"So the choice I had to make was actually pretty simple."

Merav looked at Ramloch's always smiling eyes and answered word by word: "Be buried with this city, or... not be buried with this city."

"Obviously you made the right call."

Lamorlock said casually, and then added: "There is an old saying in my hometown, 'A scholar will die for his confidant', and judging from the performance of the Howard family, they are obviously not worthy of letting you give up your life. "

"That's not important, General Staff Lamorlock."

Merav shook her head and said seriously: "I just hope you can remember your promise and leave me a position in this army, a position that will allow me to sleep better at night. In addition, there are The matter of Edwin Mihaili..."

The smile in Lamorlock's eyes grew stronger: "Of course, no problem. It just so happens that I am worried that my energy is not enough during this period. It is of course a blessing to have Ms. Merav, a talented person like you, to help share trivial matters. As for that Mr. Edwin, oh, to be honest, Tom is my most trusted right-hand man. With him helping out, your friend will naturally not——"

"Edwin Mihaili is dead." The next second, in a burst of twisted dark green ripples, a thin boy with the same blond hair as Merav, Tom Lestrange appeared quietly Standing next to Lamorlock, his feminine, handsome and pale face showed no expression: "I'm sorry, you two, but I couldn't save him."

"Edwin..."

Merav staggered on the spot, but she did not fall down after all. She just turned her sea-blue eyes to the young man next to Lamorlock and asked softly: "I'm sorry, can you tell me how he died?" "?"

"He went against your arrangement and rashly entered the area marked [Eye-17] by Lamorlock for reconnaissance. As a result, he was involved in the indiscriminate nightmare storm created by the Shadow of Decay."

Tom Lestrange lowered his head and played with his wand [Snake Venom] while saying indifferently: "I went a step too late and couldn't drag him out, but the good news is that he died in his sleep. , there was no pain in the process.”

Merav, who quickly returned to normal with her strong psychological quality, smiled and nodded to Tom again: "That's it, thank you, I... I'm glad that he left without pain."

"Um."

Tom made a faint nasal noise as an answer.

"What a pity~"

But Lamorlock smacked his lips and sighed: "Obviously we have not dared to recognize each other for many years because of the disparity in status. This time, I finally got rid of the constraints of the Howard family and turned around to join my Dream Kingdom, which has no aristocratic system. But in I heard about the death of the person I loved before I was about to reveal my true feelings to him. Tsk tsk, please accept my most sincere apology. Ms. Merav, after all, the root cause is that I trusted the wrong person and let Tom, a child who is not mature enough, go there. Doing this has turned the situation into the irreversible predicament it is now.”

"Don't say that, General Staff Lamorlock."

Having dealt with the young man as a messenger twice before, Melafu, who had completely let go of Edwin's death in a short period of time, shook her head vigorously and said seriously: "This is definitely not Mr. Snake's fault."

Lamolock frowned and said seriously: "No, no, no, this is obviously Tom's fault. If it weren't for him, your sweetheart would not have died at all!"

"Edwin is just my old friend."

Melafu, who had already convinced herself with this reason, emphasized it again verbally and said seriously: "If you really want to investigate, I think my responsibility is much greater than Mr. Snake... …”

“Shut up.”

At this moment, Tom Lestrange suddenly interrupted Melafu and said coldly to the surrendered general who had been defending himself: “Get lost.”

Melafu’s face froze when she heard this: “Mr. [Snake], you…”

“Leave here, woman.”

Tom interrupted Melafu again and said in a deep voice: “I plan to appreciate Lamoloc’s ‘art’ here, and you… are an eyesore.”

“…”

After a brief silence, Melafu gave the boy a weak smile, whispered ‘I understand’, and turned to walk towards the trap door behind Tom.

However——

"Wait a minute."

When Tom and Melafe heard Lamoloc's voice, they both trembled. Just when the boy was about to speak with a cold face, the former said the following words first: "Since Ms. Melafe has clearly stated that it is not your responsibility, Tom, you might as well tell me the whole process of how you killed Edwin Mihairi. You are still young, and it is not good for your health to keep things in your heart."

Melafe, who had already walked to the trap door, turned back suddenly: "...Eh!?"

Tom pointed [Snake Venom] at Lamoloc with an expressionless face, and threatened in a cold voice: "What do you want to do?!"

"I don't want to do anything, Tom."

Lamoloc opened his eyes, stared at the boy's vertical pupils with his eyes that seemed to be able to absorb people's souls, and said softly "I simply think that Ms. Melas has the right to hear the truth, no matter how heartbreaking and heartbreaking it is."

"I warn you, Lamolo..."

"Look at her eyes, Tom, can you really bear to let this innocent lady regret for the rest of her life in lies?"

"..."

"Do you really think that a moment of relief can offset the pain of her countless dreams of today when she is sleepless?"

"..."

"Tell her the truth, Tom, if you still have any hesitation, then in the name of me, Lamolo, I will unveil Edwin Mihaili for her!"

"..."

"...Woman."

"...Mr. Snake?"

"He ran away."

"Yes."

"I killed him."

"Okay."
