No settlement was 'willing' to accept these poor women—at least in Grush's opinion.

He could see clearly that there was a 'peculiar' greed in the eyes of those people, even though he was only tentative, and did not explicitly state that he wanted to place the women here, and those people were already eager to pull those women to his side.

Obviously, if he did put those women in a settlement, then they would be a delicious cake to be divided among others, and although they would not be as cruelly abused as the slave traders of the past, they would definitely not have a good life.

After exchanging the monsters he had hunted in the wasteland for some food and clothing, he left the colony with the women.

Later, he took them to other settlements, but the other settlements were similar, the people were almost greedy, and they had similar eyes, so Grush brought them with him, and they could only really settle down by the side of this upright paladin.

Those are the people Grush wants to protect, and he is crazy about reclaiming the most basic justice from the nobles for the commoners, but unfortunately not only has it had little effect, but even those he wants to protect are not very good......

Grush can now understand why there is always a 'fall of the Paladin', when the Paladin, eager to protect the 'oppressed' civilians, only to find that those people are not worth protecting at all.

Even though they were able to be full of enthusiasm for their ideals at the beginning, the truly mature holy warriors were full of vicissitudes and sorrows.

It was none other than the civilians themselves who had extinguished the enthusiasm of the young paladines.

How fierce the feelings were in the past, and how much the 'anti-holy warriors' hated this world and the world after the fall.

It is not advisable to think about oppressing others to gain benefits because they are oppressed, and no one is 'forced to do so'.

People were sad, but that wasn't a reason for them to profit from oppressing others, so Grush didn't put the women in a settlement, and even though he could see that the women didn't want to drag him down, he took them out anyway.

If they were to be placed in a settlement at will, it would be an injustice to them, so what kind of face would Grush have to continue to pursue his 'way of justice'?

So he took two tents and some horses, and took the poor women on the way south.

The Fierce Eagle Plateau is not suitable for these women to live, the people here are fierce, even if they are from the same country, two nomadic tribes meet, maybe the front has just separated after the transaction, and someone will pretend to be a robber and go back to grab a handful.

If the Eagle Plateau can't work, he will take them to the Moore Commercial Federation, and if Moll can't do it, he will take them to the small kingdoms and small principalities on the east and west sides of Moor, and if it doesn't work, he will go to the Free City-State Alliance, or go to the Kurkut Empire...... If it really doesn't work, take them to the Principality of Sorrow, where they will definitely be able to live a good life.

Although those women are a burden to Grush, saving people to the end, since they have been rescued, do you want to let them return to those unbearable lives?

On this plateau, it is a sin to have wealth, it is also a sin to be penniless, and the greatest sin in these women is 'lack of power'.

If they had the strength to not be bullied by others, Grush would be able to rest assured that they would not have to follow him around and face great danger to their lives.

As a paladin, Grush couldn't sit back and watch other evil happen, and once he stepped in to help others, these women would have no one to protect.

So, sitting by the curtain of the tent, he secretly made a decision that from tomorrow onwards, he would teach them some martial arts that could be used to protect themselves.

Looking up at the starry sky, Grush let out a white breath, the spring nights on the plateau were still very cold.

The fire in front of him crackled, and now he sat in the middle of two tents, and tonight it was his turn to keep vigil again.

This is also what he took the initiative to ask, among those women, only a few have the experience and ability to keep vigil, they are women who grew up on this plateau, if they don't live in towns, no matter how big the tribe needs to have someone to keep vigil.

As a legend, Grush doesn't need much sleep, and generally only needs two to three hours to recharge.

Resting efficiently can help you recover your combat abilities faster, which is why legendary powerhouses generally don't need to rest for too long.

They have more energy than ordinary people, faster recovery speed, and are incomparable to ordinary people, in fact, many 'extraordinary' can do this, after all, the line between legend and transcendent is very blurred.

Those women were not professionals, otherwise they would not have been enslaved so simply.

If there are any magical beasts in the night, it will still need to be solved by Grush, he is very resilient, and it doesn't mean anything to him whether he sleeps or not, but in order to show his respect for them, he will let them join the vigil as well.

Looking up at the starry sky, Grush resounded from the past, and the more things he saw during the time he had just left the Grim Wind Realm, the more confused he became, and he almost lost the idea of continuing to pursue justice because of numbness.

If it weren't for the arrogance of that nobleman who angered him, he might have given up his ideals long ago, or degenerated into an 'anti-holy warrior'.

Now, the more he sees, the more determined he becomes, and all the ugliness of human nature he has seen so far is strengthening his belief and making him more determined to follow this path.

Sometimes he wonders if the world's ruling class could become just and upright, then there wouldn't have been so many tragedies?

Civilians will not be unable to pay their debts and lose their freedom because of exorbitant taxes, those who will resist will not be forced into ruins, and merchants will be able to do more business without so many bandits...... In fact, if a lord is a little kinder, the realm can flourish.

But why did the world become like this?

What is the reason for the greed and short-sightedness of the aristocracy?

Even after a night of contemplation, a misty light had risen in the sky, and Cervantes could not get an answer—either accurate or vague.

People's greed is endless, resources are never enough to distribute, even if they have abundant resources, as long as they are in power all the time is 'a group of people', then no matter how rich the resources, they will continue to pull to their side.

Just like the aristocracy, how great and upright the nobles of the ancestors were, and how wicked and greedy the nobles of the present.

Father to father, father to son, power from generation to generation, if a certain generation changes, then the descendants will also change, gradually deviate from the trajectory......

Do you want to overthrow the rule of the aristocracy?

After thinking of this, Grush suddenly had the idea of 'great rebellion'.

It's like what he saw in the Sorrowful Wind Leader, even if there are no nobles there, it's not the same as being well governed, isn't it?

Thousands of years ago, the aristocracy had ruled the world, and neither the god of light nor the god of justice had expressed any opinion on this group.

Even if what they are doing is pushing the world into the abyss of darkness, if there is no noble, then who will rule this mortal world?

But, now they have one more option – a better one!

Does it make sense to preach the 'way of justice' alone, and how many nobles will be touched?

Grush got up from the ground and turned to look at the sun, which was creeping out of the horizon.

He changed his mind—

Back!
