Chapter 539: Elinster's Determination
After taking over the assignment from Jenn, Irest returned to the convent and gathered the other sisters to announce the news. As Elinster thought, after learning about this from Elinster, the sons of witches were also very excited. They have always longed to be able to contribute to the lord, especially after awakening the power of the bloodline. For these sons of witches who have experienced countless pains, they know very well what this power can bring to them.
And the sons of witches also know very well how everything they got came about, and the reason why they are where they are today is entirely thanks to Jenn. If it weren't for the lord's meticulous care and teaching them how to use powers that they didn't even know about, I'm afraid that even if they lived, they would have been able to live a life of inaction until they died. Because of this, the sons of witches who live here, no matter how awkward their personalities, are willing to serve Jenn. Merely.........
"Why does your lord need our help at this time?"
After hearing Irlist's words, it was not long before the son of the witch asked questions.
This is the biggest difference between the son of the witch and the others, if they were ordinary people, I am afraid they would not think so much, what Jenn asked them to do, they did it. But the sons of witches are not so simple, they are used to seeing the wind and rain in the world, and they know that everything happens for a reason. And now that he and the others will be valued by the lord, it will definitely not be the product of the other party's flash of inspiration. Therefore, after hearing this question, no one spoke out to argue. Instead, they immediately set their eyes on a young girl standing nearby.
Judging by age. The girl was about sixteen or seventeen years old, the oldest of the witch's sons. It's no wonder that, because of the nature of the witch's sons, they rarely survive past the age of ten. And it is an absolute miracle that this girl was able to live to the age of sixteen. Like the other sons of witches, the girl in front of her has the same flaw, that is, her ears cannot hear normal sounds. But I don't know if it was lucky or unlucky, before coming to the monastery, she had awakened some of the power of the bloodline. This power helps her to hear voices and calls from all directions. In other words, the biggest difference between her and ordinary people is that ordinary people can only hear the voices around them. But for the girl, within a radius of hundreds of miles around her, the sounds of everything seemed to be as clear in her mind as if they were close to her ears.
And it is also relying on this ability that the girl disguised herself as a normal person, so that she could spend her childhood smoothly.
But there are pros and cons to everything, and as the age increases, the girl's abnormality gradually attracts the attention of others. And because she can't control her own power well, it didn't take long for her problem to be discovered, and many people began to gradually doubt the identity of the girl. And just as they were discussing sending the girl to the church to find out. She used her power to collect this information early, and then left her hometown while others were not looking. Then she learned of the existence of the monastery from other people's chats, and came to the door to ask them to take her in.
At first, she wanted to keep her abilities a secret. But after discovering that the son of the witch here has more or less special powers, she also put down her original disguise and integrated into the group. Now this girl is basically in charge of the witch's son's external intelligence collection work. When she was not working, she would always sit on the minaret of the monastery. Collect the chats and conversations of people in the surrounding countryside and towns. Then find interesting stories to tell others from them.
Of course, this ability is not completely without flaws, her power has no effect on people who also have the blood of the Witch's Son, and secondly, if someone releases a voice to shield an existence such as an enchantment to isolate the outside world, then her power will also lose its effect.
However, this ability is good because it does not need to consume power, as long as the girl wants to, she can listen to anyone and anything within her ability twenty-four hours a day, anytime and anywhere. Even if they can be covered for a while, it does not mean that they can cover for a lifetime.
This is the son of the witch, whose ancestors sacrificed their bodies and prayed to the demons for strength. And once this power hidden in the bloodline is activated, its power cannot be underestimated. It's just a pity that because of the ups and downs of the world, most of the sons of witches will not live to be fourteen years old, otherwise just the gathering of these sons of witches is enough to become a pivotal force on the Klein Continent.
And at this moment, feeling the eyes of the sisters, the girl also thought for a while, and then spoke.
"It may have something to do with the incident when the lord made a big fuss in the Shining Nation before. Now the country is constantly at loggerheads, although the lord has done nothing wrong. But I heard that many of the loyal subordinates of the king of that country were very dissatisfied with the lord. I've heard a lot of rumors that these people seem to be planning to come to their master's territory and get him in trouble. The Glorious Nation was too far away from Passus for them to lead an army over. But it's quite possible to bring a small group of men here and cause some trouble for the lord. ”
"How can they do this, obviously the lord didn't do anything wrong, and saved their lives!"
Hearing the girl's words, the son of the witch suddenly complained very dissatisfied. They have always been very concerned about their lord, so they have not been less concerned about him. Therefore, as for the matter of the Glorious Country, they had already heard the ins and outs of it at the first time, and naturally thought that the lord had done the right thing. But these people are not grateful to him, but still want to trouble him?
"Aren't all people out there like that?"
Hearing the complaint, the son of another witch sitting in the chair pursed his lips and said with a cold snort. Her fingers flicked, and with her movements, daggers of different shapes suddenly appeared, and then disappeared. In the end, her right hand stretched forward, and even the entire palm disappeared into the void, leaving only a pitch-black void in the cuffs of the black hole. And just after the girl's arm made a retraction movement, I saw that her right hand, which had disappeared, did not know when it returned to her arm, and there was a bright red apple.
"Didn't we do nothing, and we ended up being treated like this by them, and those guys were all the same bad!"
As she spoke, the girl put the apple to her mouth and took a hard bite, as if she were tearing someone's flesh alive.
Hearing her words, the sons of the witches present couldn't help but nod. Now for them, the most trusted and relied on are Lyzia and Jenn, and Patilina, who is always calling for them. Aside from them and the maids in the monastery, the people outside were enemies in the eyes of the Witch's Son. If you use the prestige of the game as an analogy, then these sons of witches and ordinary people are naturally hostile camps, and they don't care about the lives of those people outside.
(I think so too.) )
At this point, Irimp took over the conversation again.
(Everyone knows that the construction of the city of Passus is the most important thing in the territory of Passus.) Those people who want to come here to trouble the lord will definitely start with the construction of the new city. If they secretly destroy the new city, or cause some kind of disturbance, it will not be good news for the lord. I think this time the lord wants us to go to the new city to maintain order, so that we can find these guys and thwart their schemes! )
Speaking of this, Irlingst also clenched her little fists excitedly, and the others were also excited at the moment, after so long, they finally left the monastery again. But this time it wasn't expelled, but they left on their own initiative, and they were about to contribute their strength to their lords!
(I've talked to Mistress Pattilina, and she agrees in principle that we participate, but on the condition that we do it 100 percent, and if she finds out that we have made a mistake, Mistress Pattilina will punish her............ )
At this, Irnest's voice suddenly weakened a lot. And the others couldn't help but shudder when they heard this, to be honest, they were both respectful and afraid of Patilina, but they didn't hate her. Although Patilina was always straightforward and often sarcastic about them, the sons of the witches could hear that everything Patilina said was meant to keep them alive, and although what she said sounded angry, the will hidden in it would not change because of this.
It's just that when they think of Patilina's punishments, these sons of witches tremble in their hearts. You must know that they have all experienced all kinds of torture outside, and logically speaking, even if they are flooded by fire, they will definitely not be afraid. But Patilina's methods make people want to live, not death, and they have to accept it. At this moment, as soon as they heard that Patilina was going to punish them for failing in the mission, these sons of witches suddenly trembled in their hearts.
(I think you already know that this mission is important to us.) )
Looking at everyone's expressions, Irest also nodded solemnly.
(The lord has sheltered us and given us shelter, and now is the time for us to serve the lord!) From today onwards, we are the remnants of the blade in the hands of the lord, the shadow behind us, and we will clear all obstacles for the lord! (To be continued......)
