Northern Empire, imperial capital. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As the royal family of Delmond said, there is only one empire in this world, so this country does not need a name, and there is only one imperial capital in this world, but as long as someone mentions it, no one will think of other cities.

In the center of the holy city, surrounded by three mountains, is a huge city within a city, surrounded by a strong wall, separated from the rest of the city, within which there are towering minarets and vaulted basilicas supported by stone beams.

Over there is the residence of the imperial family, the Palazzo Morlai.

The Morlay Palace was built by the founding emperor of the empire, it originally had only a simple cylindrical hall as the residence of the royal family, but the successive emperors of later generations had different aesthetic styles, and they all built palaces according to their own preferences, resulting in thousands of years, the entire Morlay Palace gradually became a complex palace complex composed of countless magnificent buildings of different shapes.

In the Morlay Palace, not only the imperial family lived, but also the residence of the royal guard [Mars Janissake], the council hall and the headquarters of many organizations directly under the royal family.

Riding in a dark yellow carriage with a sun crest, with Ying and Rin, Joshua and Brandon headed towards the palace together, it was late at night, but because of the appearance of the demon before, countless city guards were seriously patrolling the streets, and they strictly investigated one by one, trying not to let this happen again.

"It's not just the imperial capital, it's happening everywhere on the Mycrof continent."

With the Kaos family and the Royal Mage Guild as a source of information, Brandon knew something faster than Joshua, and in the carriage, he flipped through the various materials that were urgently sent, and explained to the warriors: "At present, it can be determined that the Eastern Plains Kingdom is the most seriously affected, there are the most spellcasters there, and there are many people with demonic bloodlines, which is too suitable for sacrifice, and Far South secondly, the large number of refugees brought by the dragon plague is the best material for evil rituals, because a large number of monsters are attacking everywhere, and the kingdom army has no time to take care of it, The losses suffered were even greater than in the eastern plains.

"Even the dwarves of the West Mountain, the wind whispering elves, who are almost reclusive, have been harassed by cultists, so it seems that the imperial capital has no serious losses because of its strong defense."

"Sure enough, cultists are everywhere." Joshua nodded slightly, he was not surprised.

As long as desires are not satisfied, chaos will spread, regardless of race, without exception.

Because of the previous battle with the demon, he had already changed his clothes at this time, it seemed that he was considering the reason for the next contact with the emperor, this was a common aristocratic attire, but even so, those complicated patterns and decorations could not hide the conspicuous ferocity of the warrior: "However, why did the emperor receive us?" ”

He felt a little strange, after all, he just killed a demon, this kind of thing is sparse and ordinary, even in the imperial capital, it is enough to praise it, when he was in the abyss before, he led the group to run and kill a lair as soon as he killed it, and some time ago he used the Book of Ebonn to summon the demon to serve as a drink, and he was already a little numb.

Even if you want to know the information of those demons, you don't need to call him over.

"It's not us, it's you, you're alone."

Pointing out Joshua's language problem, Brandon shook his head and said, "Although it is only a demon, appearing in the imperial capital is its biggest difference, not to mention other political or security significance, which means that the seal of the abyss has begun to loosen, and you are the keeper of chaos...... I said Joshua. ”

Speaking of this, Brandon stopped explaining and frowned, he didn't look at the information in his hand, but raised his head and said to the warrior angrily: "Can you restrain your coercion a little?" The coachman and the horse are trembling, and the carriage has begun to go crooked, don't you feel it? ”

"It's been a lot more convergent."

Looking at the side, Ying and Rin were secretly laughing left and right, Joshua shrugged helplessly, he looked at the system characters at the edge of the retina, sighed and said, "This trouble is really getting bigger and bigger." ”

In the list of system characters in the eyes of the warriors, there is a number that stands out in particular.

[Charm: -53]

Of the attributes that are all one hundred or more in a row, only this one is conspicuously plural.

And under this attribute, there are many descriptions and reports that have just been added.

[Because your charm exceeds minus fifty, your aura of fear is advanced to the aura of despair.] 】

[Because you killed the clone of the Great Demon 'Mind Eater Raldanas', its curse and resentment haunt you, and your Despair aura is upgraded to a despair aura, and you gain a +1 bonus on judgment.] 】

You have tortured and slain a great demon and made it taste fear and despair. 】

【You have earned the achievement: Demon Predator】

The detailed attributes of this achievement, Joshua didn't bother to look at it, anyway, all kinds of judgments that reduced charm, increased intimidation, threats, and persuasion, and in general, made his personal image more and more negative, and just by going through it, it would cause Brandon to say before, making the horses and coachmen tremble with fright.

What is the concept of charismatic minus fifty-three? The warrior estimated that if he didn't reveal his identity and go to the palace gate for a walk, he was afraid that he would not be surrounded by an entire Praetorian Knights, no matter which city he went to, he would be blocked by the guards at the gate and refused to enter, and the staff in any public place would be waiting for him after entering, and if he added the aura of despair - that is, the effect of the enhanced version of the aura of fear, Joshua felt that he could be called the source of the riot, and wherever he went, he would cause massive panic, more demonic than a demon.

"You've killed too many monsters......"

Closing the information in his hand, Brandon looked helpless: "At this point, even if you ask an archbishop-level priest to help you." ”

Of course, he knew that his friend in front of him was not a wicked person, in fact, in the eyes of the swordsman, Joshua was a competent, even perfect lord, he was even willing to slay dragons for his people, even if he was assassinated many times because of this, he had no regrets and complaints, but in this world with magic and souls, the curse left before death was also real, and the monsters killed by Joshua, their grudges were entangled in the warrior's body, although they could not cause him any harm, but they would affect the thoughts of others.

Generally speaking, there is a similar situation in the case of battle-hardened soldiers, most of whom are more respectful, or fearful, than close, but in Joshua's case, the situation has reached an extreme—from respect, fear, fear, fear, until the last sight of the person who feels extremely dangerous, and even a sense of despair that his hands and feet are weak and unable to move.

Through divine magic, the priest can purify this special state, but as Brandon said, judging from the current state of the warrior, I am afraid that only a pope-level figure can help him solve this problem.

Due to Joshua, the carriage traveled slowly, and it took a long time to reach the gates of the Palazzo Morlai.

The janissaries in black armor came to the carriage, they saw the royal coat of arms on it, and knew that it must be a noble person personally invited by His Majesty the Emperor, so their attitude was very polite, but no matter how polite they were, the rules could not be changed, and several guards had to open the door of the carriage to see if there were any people on it, and the weapons could not be brought in, and they were temporarily handed over to them for safekeeping.

The janissary, who appeared to be the captain, expressed his desire to open the door for inspection, and Brandon agreed.

Opening the door, the captain looked up and recognized Brandon's identity, as the stalwart of the royalists, the eldest son of the Kaos family, the swordsman was very famous among the guards, and he was even given the honor of being a swordsman who could hold weapons in the palace.

With a respectful salute, the captain turned his head to look to the other side.

Then he immediately put his hand on the hilt of the long sword at his waist. (To be continued.) )
