Invincible witch

In the game, the only time Jezebeth played as the main hero was in the single story mission "Falcon's Last Battle".At that time, the subjugated king of the Falcon Principality, which was defeated by Jezebeth, was Queen Maeve, a young female knight with blond hair and blue eyes.

Of course, she was still very young when she was defeated by Jezebeth.But after being imprisoned in the devil's prison for an unknown number of years, she is already a woman who looks about 30 years old.

The time here in Sheogh is distorted, or stagnant.Therefore, I feel that Jezebeth's body has been rampant for hundreds of years, and has never aged a bit.Although the human body is not as effective as the demon's gene, which can ensure eternal youth, but here, it can undoubtedly slow down the pace of aging of the female knight back then, and continue the long and endless torture indefinitely.

Maeve slowly raised her head from a clump of straw.After long-term torture, her eyes have lost the brightness of the past.Her face was pale and thin, with shockingly protruding cheekbones.Her eyes were gloomy and lifeless, her lips were pursed into a silent and indifferent line, as if she had accepted everything indifferently.

The worn-out armor and cloak were casually thrown in a corner of the cell, and what she was wearing at the moment was just an ordinary piece of linen clothes.Her blond hair was dull, dull and yellow, messy and knotted, and fell over her shoulders, as if severely undernourished.

When she raised her head slowly and finally saw me—or Jezebeth—there were two little flames in her eyes that flickered briefly.

It turned out that she also recognized the vicious temptress who conquered her homeland and homeland back then.

For more than ten years, even Yezebeth's shell has changed, but she is still in the devil's prison, silently waiting to die.Duke Duncan, the last descendant of the Falcon Duchy, has been keen on wandering around since his youth.In the Griffin Empire, people commented on him as "indulging in sensuality and self-imposed exile".And the responsibility of the principality was also put on the shoulders of Maeve, a woman with not outstanding abilities and talents.The demise of the principality seemed to be a matter of course, but no one knew how much unwillingness and pain she felt in her heart.

I didn't have time to chat nonsense with her, so I managed to slow down my tone and said, "Your Highness Maeve, I need your help. Of course, I can also help you regain your freedom, escape from Sheogh, and return to your homeland."

Maeve's brows twitched slightly, and she soon regained her haggard and ashes-like calm expression.It's just that something seemed to float in her eyes, which made me faintly feel the long-suppressed anger quietly flowing under her pale and bloodless skin.

She spoke slowly. "The words of a demon are never to be trusted. If you want me to die, come. The great Elrath will fetch my faithful soul."

I just want to go berserk.

These elm-headed knights of the Griffin Empire are as low-intelligence and stubborn as their queen!If it were me, no matter what the other party's intentions are, first use the other party to get out of this lava hell, and then return to the homeland!Even if my force value is much higher than hers, I am still a demon after all. Without her cooperation, even if there is a fight, I will not stay on the ground for long. How can I harm the Griffin Empire!

But her hatred was also justifiable.She didn't know that the Jezebeth in front of her was already a fake, and she didn't know that I had turned from evil to good, and turned from evil to righteousness.All she saw in her eyes was the vicious temptress who destroyed her homeland back then. She was frightened by my strong force value, so it would be good if she didn't come to fight me to the death.Do you want her to obediently cooperate with me just because of my nice voice?Just daydreaming.

I pinched the space between my brows with my fingers in annoyance, and thought about it.

I have already thrown the "Heart of the Griffin" to Biara, what token can I have at this moment, so that I can quickly win her trust?

With a flash of inspiration, I reached out and took off the "skill pendant" on my chest, held it in the palm of my hand, stretched it out in front of Maeve, and spread my palm for her to see clearly.

Mei Fu obviously knew the goods, and exclaimed: "Skill pendant! Isn't this a legendary treasure kept in the silver city-state! Could it be that you..."

I was about to be scratched to pieces by her angry eyes.I touched my nose with a wry smile, and felt that this sister knight's brain was a little too quick.

I said, "Zehir is a great hero who defeated the Demon King Cabellas. If you really do it, what do you think I can get in front of him?"

Maeve hesitated, "Then why is this skill pendant in your hand?"

I try my best to show a kind smile that is harmless to humans and animals. "Of course it was given to me by Zehir himself."

Maeve was shocked, and took a step back, as if she was about to reach out and pick up the rusted long sword leaning against the wet corner to defend herself. "No, you're lying, I don't believe it! How could the chief archmage of the Silver City-State collude with a despicable and vicious demon!!"

As if I didn't hear the ginseng rooster faintly visible in her words, I still smiled kindly and said: "You are right at all."

Maeve was probably surprised to hear that I actually agreed with her words, and couldn't help but froze.

I continued to say with a good-tempered and pleasant face: "Zehir will not collude with the devil. I have already repented. Otherwise, how could I easily release these people in the devil's prison without permission. This 'skill pendant' Ornaments', which was temporarily lent to me by Archmage Zehir, because my sincerity has won his approval. If you don't want to believe me, just follow my strategy for the time being, and escape from this ghost with me. No matter where you are going to meet Archmage Zehir or Findan of Iroland, I believe they will affirm my sincerity to you. And I came alone, without bringing half of the people. Are you still afraid that I will go to the ground? Can the upper party rebel against it?"

My tone was gentle, and I spoke eloquently. Maeve's face changed a few times in the darkness, and finally she hesitated and said, "Explain the matter clearly...how to get out of this ghostly place?"

I lowered my head and stroked my forehead, let out a deep breath, and then smiled softly.This time the smile was finally a little more sincere.

The author has something to say: Update on September 1:

Regarding Maeve’s history, since I didn’t play the “Falcon’s Last Battle” level many times, I’m not very impressed with the dialogues in the cutscenes... Given that the demise of the Falcon Empire is already in The background of this article "The Battle of Queen Isabel" happened more than 100 years ago, so I think the age of most characters in this game is really hard to think about, otherwise they will be hundreds of years old at every turn... This Maeve, as a human race, If you live two hundred years, it's a bit too heavy...so I will define the "Falcon" in "Falcon's Last Battle" as the Falcon Principality of the Griffin Empire~~

In addition, the relationship between Maeve, as the queen who guarded the city when the Falcon Duchy was destroyed, and the Duke of Duncan, the last descendant of the Falcon Duchy, seems to be unclear in the game~~~ So I took them as siblings without authorization~~ ~Of course these are just floating clouds~~^^

PS. I am thinking about a question... that is, can the number of favorites reach [-] before the end of this article... :P

Also: Xiaoye’s new vest in this chapter, Maeve’s character design~~
