Blood of Mercury

"Your Majesty, is it okay to let Joseph go alone?"

After Joseph left Roland and Kakarit's line of sight, Kakarit turned his head to Roland and asked softly, "According to what I said, the Tree of Suffering is also an extraordinary being above the Golden Rank. It's a sneak attack, and Joseph may be more fortunate than good."

"So, I just asked him to investigate the intelligence."

Roland nodded and said solemnly, "The reason why I let him go to the City of Fortune and let you follow me is because his concealment ability is much better than yours. He can get closer to the tree of suffering than you If it is found by it, once it is found, it can also run away.”

"However, your consideration is indeed justified. Joseph may indeed be in danger while probing the Tree of Passion, and I cannot put you in such a dangerous situation. So..."

Roland paused for a while, and called out softly, "--Elucado!"

As soon as the voice fell, a thick shadow appeared from Roland's shadow, filling the entire shadow like an octopus spitting ink. A heavy, oil-like black-red liquid oozes from the shadows.

At that moment, a dignified sense of terror grabbed Kakarit's heart, and his heart was beating desperately as if it was about to burst. Kakarit even felt that his neck and wrists were shaken by the frantically beating heart. trembling. Because of his excellent perception, the terror he felt was ten times that of ordinary people.

He seemed to see the world in front of him turned into scarlet in an instant, the thick blood lingered in his nose and mouth, and death was approaching. This illusion dissipated before even half a second, and Kakarit's back was completely soaked in cold sweat.

- What kind of monster is that? !

In his terrified gaze, the outline of half a girl rose in Roland's shadow, and all around the outline were eyes of different sizes.

Just being stared at by those eyes, the emotions of fear, anger, and resentment turned into an invisible storm and swept in, almost tearing Kakarite's spirit to pieces.

"I'm sorry... my master."

A soft and somewhat hoarse and elegant voice sounded, and the eyeballs and the black-red viscous liquid gradually faded away, revealing the beautiful young girl in it.

Even Kakarit couldn't help but lose his mind for a moment.

It was elvenly delicate beauty. The corners of his mouth, which seemed to have been contemptuous, were raised high, and even when he looked at Roland, he did not put away his habitual smile.

She is wearing a scarlet trench coat that is somewhat handsome yet mysterious. The windbreaker has intricate patterns on the top, and the hem hangs down to the calf. In the afternoon sunlight, from a distance, you might even think it was a human-shaped flame or burning blood.

The long black hair behind her that reached her waist looked a bit like a group of snakes. Again like a black flame. The moment Kakarit saw her, he vaguely saw a black and red light and shadow like a water element that was hundreds of meters high flashing across her body.

After being summoned by Roland, she kept staring at Kakarit with interesting eyes. The feeling of being stared at by a higher-ranking predator made Kakarit dare not even move.

Kakarit had no doubt that if he met her, he would be ripped to pieces if he couldn't even sing the first prayer.

Just looking at her. Kakarit shuddered.

... So it turns out that His Majesty Roland has been keeping such a terrifying monster in his shadow?

Kakarit couldn't even speak.

"Elucado, follow Joseph to the city of wealth."

Roland said softly: "If Joseph was attacked by the Tree of Suffering, or angered the Tree of Suffering, it would be dangerous. If this happens, he may be in danger... This is why I asked you to follow him. s reason."

"Ah . . . I see. I see, my lord. I'll go now."

Elucado chuckled softly, a happy light flashing in his eyes.

Roland smiled slightly and stretched out his left hand towards Elucado.

So Elucado knelt down on one knee, kissed the back of Roland's hand lightly, and murmured softly, "May you be safe. My master."

After that, she bowed her head slightly. The whole person turned into a shadow and sank back into the ground.

"……Feel sorry."

Kakarit lowered his head in shame: "Your Majesty, your kindness makes me admire."

"It's not kindness, Kakarit."

But Roland shook his head and said warmly, "Joseph's trip is indeed risky, and it's my fault that I didn't notice it. You don't have to be sorry, Kakarite, I also want to thank you for your reminder."

"However, you sent your own guards out to protect the safety of your subordinates, so what about your own safety?"

"No, Your Majesty..." Kakarit's eyes showed concern and excitement at the same time. "Let me protect your safety. Although it may not be as good as Lord Erucado, I will never die after you."

"If you really die before me, I'm going to be troubled."

Roland said sternly: "I have more important tasks to give you."

"...more important tasks? No, Your Majesty. Could it be that..."

"The so-called profession has a specialization, Kakarit. Joseph is indeed more suitable for work such as stealth and exploration than you, and Elucado's protection makes me feel at ease. But when it comes to preaching, the only person I can trust is you. ."

Roland replied softly word by word. His eyes are gentle, and the emerald pupils are deep and calm.

"But, for your safety—"

Kakarit shook his head again and again. The voice is fast.

"Listen to me, Kakarite," Roland interrupted Kakarite forcefully, "I need the stability of Richero, and I need a group of Caral's followers. I don't think there is a better time than now. It is more suitable for missionary.”

"but……"

As soon as Kakarit opened his mouth, the words were stuck in his throat.

Yes. He also knew that besides himself, Roland couldn't find anyone else to help him preach for a while.

Richello's disaster will begin to subside in just a day or two. By that time, after people's restless and restless minds gradually calmed down ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the baptism of the long-sleeping mentor will not be so effective.

"You don't have to worry, I'm just going to the big cemetery. It's already been trampled by Caral scavengers, so there will be no danger."

Roland paused for a moment, then continued: "Also, I have other things to ask you. In another two or three days, a disciple of the mentor will come to Lizello, you wait here to pick him up for me. He is an undead, if you see him, bring him to me."

"...As you wish." After a slight hesitation, Kakarit answered, "Then, his name..."

"Duo Duo. You can call him Duo Duo."

Roland replied immediately: "That's it, Kakarit. You help me recruit a group of mentor's followers in Richero, and then stay here until Duoduo comes, and you come to the City of Fortune to find me. I'll be waiting for you right there."

After getting Kakarit's affirmative answer, Roland showed a relieved smile.

So he turned his head and walked to the southwest. (To be continued.)
