[Dragon Age] Under Six Feet

?The price of killing a great demon is death.

For a long time, Logan didn't like the Gray Guard organization.Whether it is the mystification of the alliance ceremony or the historical legends that Marek and Kailan will regard as the standard, they are all too illusory things for him.He only believed in the facts that existed in front of him, and before the lord meeting, the facts before Logan were that the Gray Guard had almost no role in Ferelden.

As for the so-called "glory" of Marek's illegitimate son... Only those who are so naive will feel that it is an honor to join the Gray Guard.Logan had seen Duncan when he was young, and the elf mage who made Marek betray Lorwen again.As for the specific composition of Gray Guard's team, just look at him now, and look at the woman in the blood-splattered wedding dress, don't you know?Logan is not a teenager living in a hero's dream. He knows that an organization is not created to be praised by others.

But now, the reality of exchanging lives for lives is enough to satisfy Logan.

To die together sounds like a kind of fate.

Sins cannot be washed away.Logan understood this better than the young Gray Guard, but even so, he still wanted to do something to recover the damage he caused.If one of him and the Gray Guard must die to solve the plague, is it true that he is the most suitable person? Although the battle of Ostagar will be repeated a hundred times, Logan will also order the withdrawal of Kailan and others Gray Guard dies; but Ferelden belongs to Marek, and this is Logan's responsibility. His choice made Ferelden what it is now, so it should be him to solve all this.

But apparently Gray Guard also thought so.She even seemed a little happy when she walked out of the room with her, as if she was proud that her crow's mouth had come true.Logan watched the gray guard enter the bedroom, and saw Morrigan's silhouette through the open door as he passed by. He laughed in his heart, like birds of a feather flock together. I don't know what kind of trouble the wilderness witch will have if she finds the gray guard... ...of course it has nothing to do with him.

But the gray guard who knocked on the door of his room immediately told him that Morrigan really had something to do with her when he found her.

The young elf stood in front of her. She changed into a light armor and untied her braided hair.The long white hair was scattered on the shoulders, and there was no blood or chilling aura.She looked up at Logan, pale and troubled.

At this time, Logan suddenly realized that the gray guard was younger than Anola.

"What?"

It must not be a good thing to have to clarify things in the middle of the night when they were about to leave for Dunrium tomorrow.Coupled with the fact that Morrigan approached her just now to discuss important matters, Logan was mentally prepared when he saw the complicated look in her eyes.

The gray guard didn't speak immediately, she subconsciously glanced at the corridor.Logan stepped aside knowingly and let her enter the room to talk.After closing the door, Gray Guard leaned against the door, and she took a deep breath: "I want you to sleep with Morrigan."

Logan: "..."

He thought that there were no rare things in this world any more than his disastrous defeat at the lord's conference and becoming a gray guard, but the elf in front of him once again refreshed his cognition.He stared at the gray guard for a while, and then broke the weird silence: "I assume, this is some kind of evil ritual or something else proposed by the wilderness witch."

"Yes." The gray guard nodded, "She said that this can prevent the gray guard from dying by beheading the big demon."

Ha, just after they learned the price, the witch ran out unhurriedly and said there was another way.Logan was not surprised at all.

"This is not interesting, Gray Guard." He said coldly, "If you are afraid of death, then entrust me with the task of killing the great demon."

"fear death?"

A provocative expression appeared on Hui Wei's face.

"You know who you're talking to, Logan?"

Of course Logan knew.This elf dared to wear a wedding dress to slash an enemy blocking the way, and also dared to fight with him in full view with two daggers, probably because he was born without knowing how to write the word "death".It's just that she doesn't intend to rush to end her life, but he can, why mention it?Gray Guard is not a good person, and naturally he would not be kind enough to treat him as a companion sincerely. Logan didn't understand why she was standing in front of him now.

"You don't want me dead." So Logan asked, "Why?"

"I don't want unnecessary losses." The gray guard corrected, "Since there is a way to avoid wasting combat power, why do you have to run there to die? The death of the great demon is not the end of everything. You have fought, and you must understand that rebuilding is more important than rebuilding." The reason why victory is more difficult, at least the queen still needs you."

"Annola has a whole Ferelden."

"But if you die, she will only be left with me as a gray guard." She retorted quickly, "Since you have helped Feriden clean up so many messes, this one is not bad. And I can help you I don’t think you will let go of the opportunity for our country to contribute.”

Logan looked at Gray Guard again, and said inexplicably, "What exactly does that witch want?"

"Morrigan wants a child with the spirit of an Old God."

Gray Wei paused, briefly explained the ceremony, and then continued: "I think this is the real purpose of her walking with me. Since she has helped so much, it is only natural that she gets what she wants."

He snorted coldly: "Of course this is what she wants."

She didn't speak immediately, and Hui Wei changed into a scrutinizing attitude after he taunted her.After thinking for a while, the young elf took his words in a puzzled tone: "Why are you so resistant to this matter? Whatever Morrigan wants, you have nothing to lose. If I were a man, there would be no loss at all. There is no need to stand here and waste your tongue, even if you want to die, the result will be the same."

"But there's no 'if' in this world, what if I disagree?"

"I don't like others disobeying my decision, but the choice is yours." Hui Wei raised his brows, "I advise you to think about it carefully."

It took a few days to recognize her habit of expression, and the gray guard would only show this expression when he was thinking about plots and tricks.Even though she appeared in his room only wearing simple clothes, Logan still deeply suspected that maybe there was a poisoned dagger or anesthetic hidden under her skirt or in her sleeve, in case he replied that she didn't want it. s answer.

But Logan had to admit that she was right.

That's right, Ferelden is the reason why he deserves to live. If Gray Guard tries to convince himself, this is an entry point that Logan cannot refuse; but this is not the real reason for her to stand here, Gray Guard is not yet great enough It is the life and death of Felaiden.

"Then why do you want me to live?"

"I've already told—"

"—I'm asking your reason."

Gray Guard shut his mouth.

There was a sharp flash of color in her pale green eyes, almost razor-sharp.Without the cover of the armor, Logan could clearly feel her muscles tense with his words, Gray Guard hooked the corners of his mouth, and then said: "You know you don't hear anything good from me, right? "

"I already understood."

What responded to Logan was her bright smile, and he found that she would smile so genuinely only in this situation, when she exposed the cruelty and blood in her heart.

"I know you want to die. How legendary does it sound like the hero of the past made the wrong choice and saved everything with his own life? You want to make up for what you have done, and you want to die to appease the guilt and guilt in your heart." Burden, no, it's not so cheap for you."

The smile is gentle and the tone is crisp, as if what he said is not a verdict but something good to celebrate.There is no shortage of vicious or cruel villains in troubled times, but it is rare to see someone as frank as her.

"Kill the big devil and restore your reputation with a death sacrifice. Is that what you plan to do, Logan? Let me serve as a foil for your fame, just like the Ole people who were buried in the Dane River back then? Don't think about it." I am the one who spared you, your life is mine. I do not allow you to die, and you are not worthy of a glorious sacrifice. I want you to suffer forever in exchange for the balance of conscience, in vain for the so-called 'redemption' Live till you can no longer hold a sword."

As she spoke, she raised her head, and brilliant flames burst out from her eyes.

"I must be the one to solve the plague, even if you don't agree." She withdrew her smile, but her eyes were still full of sarcasm, "As for these words, you want to hear them yourself, I didn't throw them in your face mean."

Frank villain, from a certain point of view, standing in front of him, like attracts birds of a feather, doesn't it, Logan thought to himself mockingly.

He twitched the corners of his mouth, barely putting on an expression that could be called a smile.

"So you would rather die yourself than let me live."

"This is my mission." Gray Guard bit the word "I" extremely hard, "and living is your punishment, these are two unrelated things."

Her stubbornness is almost unreasonable.Gray Guard is not the naive illegitimate child of Marek, she knows how to die and survive, and she is indeed a qualified fighter in the face of enemies and difficulties on weekdays.As far as Logan was concerned, Gray Guard was an admirable opponent and companion, but she was still young after all, so young that the flames in her eyes were ignited at the cost of vitality.

The former self and Marek also used this paranoia to defeat Ole.

"It's your idea."

She wasn't like Marek, not at all.Apart from being about the same age as back then, she is also a person standing on the opposite side of the world, and also a person who wants to achieve miracles. As great as Marek is, she is as despicable, and Gray Guard has never been afraid to admit this.But Logan knew that he admired her because of it.

"This is my idea." Gray Guard repeated without flinching

Can't see Marek, but sees himself.

So Logan withdrew his gaze: "I agree with your request."?
