In the corner of the Eldar Territory, Herbert saw Steven again.

This middle-aged man, who has been weak and mentally unstable since the moment he met him, seems to have bad luck, is standing in front of the holy blood stake with a pious look on his face.

His deep-set eyes revealed considerable fatigue and vicissitudes of life, but at the same time they shone with a pious light.

The beard grew messily, extending wantonly on both sides of the chin and cheeks. The miserable look that had not been taken care of for a long time silently told the suffering he had suffered during this period.

The biggest change is actually not in his face, but in his body, especially his legs, where obvious differences can be seen.

The skin on the newborn leg was slightly tender and lighter in color, as if it had not seen the sun for a long time.

But Herbert knew that it was not new skin, but a completely regenerated leg.

Because there was an inexplicable toxin on Steven's legs that had infected the bones, Joanna and the others' method was very simple... and rough.

They directly froze Steven's injured leg and then smashed it into pieces, then used the high-level magic of [Amputated Limb Regeneration] on the severed limb.

Treat wounds? Dealing with toxins?

How can it be so convenient and quick to just replace a new leg!

Herbert waited for a while and saw that Steven was still immersed in his own world. He coughed lightly and took the initiative to speak:

"Well, it seems that your body is recovering well."

! ! !

"Lord Lord!?"

Steven, who was in a daze at the wooden stake filled with holy blood, suddenly came back to his senses, stood up and saluted Herbert gratefully.

"Ah, yes! Thank you for your mercy!"

Steven's attitude was extremely respectful, bending his body slightly and slowly bending his knees. Although the newborn's body movements were slightly slow, they were full of piety and respect.

His eyes were always locked on the young man in front of him, his eyes full of gratitude.

The other party was not coaxing him before, but actually sent people to treat his injuries.

It is no exaggeration to say that the other party was the great benefactor who really gave him life again!

If he hadn't already become a servant of the gods and his family couldn't let him go, he really wanted to become the other party's retainer.

Seeing his excited look, Herbert smiled and nodded, looked up and down, and said with a smile: "Well, it's not bad."

Not bad, but just "nice".

Although Steven is much stronger than last time, he can still feel his weakness.

[Regeneration of Broken Limbs], a high-level magical skill that priests are good at, can repair the disabling injuries of the wounded. It can regenerate new flesh and blood from the wounds without the need for severed limbs.

If in the temple, the priests can also use the power of the temple itself to reduce the cost of using this magic again, with almost no burden.

But in Eldar, the magic here is limited. Priests cannot get the bonus of divine power from the gods and can only bear the corresponding price on their own.

The life span of a priest itself is much shorter than that of other professions of the same level, only two-thirds of others, maybe even less than that!

The reason for this is precisely because they consume a lot of vitality when using divine magic.

Flesh and blood regeneration comes at a price.

Either the gods bear it, or they priests bear it, or it is overdrawn from the lives of the wounded.

As for Joanna and the others' treatment of Steven this time, the priest and the wounded each took half of it.

Moreover, the treatment focused on the legs needed for walking, and there was no rush to treat the broken hand.

Once the temple is completed, they can cast their magic again at a lower cost.

But obviously, some people can't wait any longer.

Without Steven having to speak, Herbert had already felt the attitude conveyed by the other party.

Herbert didn't try to persuade him to stay, and asked directly: "Have you thought about it thoroughly?"

"……Um."

Stevenmin pursed her lips and pondered for a long time before slowly nodding her head and lowering her head apologetically.

"I understand that I cannot repay your kindness now, but please allow me to leave temporarily."

"When I finish dealing with everything in the outside world, I will definitely come back and repay your kindness again."

Um?

Herbert blinked and caught an interesting keyword.

"temporary?"

how? Suddenly changed your mind?

"Yes."

Steven did not notice the playfulness in Herbert's tone, lowered his head and explained respectfully: "Lord, I have already figured it out."

"My destination, the destiny of my family, is here."

As a descendant of explorers, he has always been chasing such a life in his heart.

Explore mysterious realms, discover new and strange creatures...become a member of a new nation.

Steven has been hearing stories like this since he was a child, and he was fascinated by them.

And now, he finally had the opportunity to be one of them, how could he give up such an opportunity.

He raised his head and looked at the Eldar Territory, which was gradually gaining vitality and changes due to the arrival of the priests, with a slight excitement in his expression.

"This is where everything I chase is found!"

He will grow with this territory, and he will write down what he sees and hears, recording everything from the perspective of an individual who has experienced it.

A true biography!

No, more than that, it can even become the history of this city-state, or even this country!

Steven is not only witnessing history, but has the opportunity to become a part of history.

And...in addition to this selfishness, he has another reason.

Here is the god he serves!

Unconsciously, Steven has become a devout believer of the unknown god.

If I leave, then when will He wait for the next believer?

No.

I can't abandon God!

Just as He didn't abandon me at the beginning!

"I hope to stay here, but I can't just abandon my daughter. Please give me time to deal with everything."

"As a family member, as a father, I can't let her down!"

Steven's true feelings were revealed at this moment, and he sincerely prayed to the lord and bowed his head deeply.

And Herbert narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at this humble father, and some emotions flashed through his heart.

For the family...

He looked at Steven for a long time, and finally shook his head slightly, exhaling the turbid air in his chest.

"Okay, raise your head."

"Lord..." Steven raised his head slowly, unsure of what answer he would give.

He was even ready to bear all kinds of contracts.

However, the handsome and young lord gave him an unexpected answer.

He had a calm expression and waved his hand casually: "Go, go if you want."

Herbert did not agree, but did not refuse.

If you can do it, then do it.

"Lord! I..."

Steven wanted to thank him excitedly, but was interrupted by Herbert.

He shook his head calmly and whispered: "Go, take the path you want to take, and don't regret it even if you are wrong."

"I will not provide you with help, nor will I ask you to come back. The rest of the way depends on you."

Steven wanted to speak several times, but in the end he closed his mouth under Herbert's eyes.

Finally, he had to bow his head deeply again, choking and saying: "...Yes!"

"Thank you very much."

...

["A moment of weakness?"]

When Herbert left Steven, Nenasha suddenly said with some amusement: ["Are you persuaded by him?"]

"Hmm?"

Herbert was stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head: "This is not considered weakness."

["Isn't it?"]

He didn't seem to want to discuss this topic more, but Nenasha finally found a weakness and must attack it fiercely.

["I don't know who said it, we must not let him go, and we must not increase the risk of exposure~"]

["Is it me? No way~ Then who is it? It's so hard to guess~"]

["Then why did you suddenly become soft-hearted? I didn't know you were such a generous person."]

["Just because of those untenable reasons he said?"]

Miss Harmony, who had been suppressed recently, burst out with amazing fighting power and strong desire to attack at this moment!

After a long period of output, He suddenly found that Herbert was unexpectedly quiet.

Did I make you speechless?

You don't know what to say!

["Hehe~ Why don't you talk?"]

But just when Nenasha felt that she had a sure win and this victory would belong to her, she suddenly realized that something might be wrong.

It seemed that something was wrong?

With such intuition, He really found the source of the bad feeling.

It was Herbert's reaction!

He was not angry at this moment, but nodded happily with a meaningful smile on his face.

Ah, right, right, right.

You are right!

So right!

He looked like he was not being attacked at all, and even cheered himself up.

["You..."]

Herbert raised his eyelids and asked with a smile: "Hmm? Have you finished speaking?"

Nenasha:?

Not good!

After realizing that Herbert seemed to have a sure win, Nenasha immediately changed her strategy.

He... voted!

【“Well… I think you must have your own ideas! Well, it’s definitely not what I mentioned before, right?”】

After noticing something was wrong, Nenasha raised the white flag and surrendered on the spot.

No, this is called abandoning darkness and joining the light!

Herbert was even surprised by Nenasha’s breaking her promise on the spot, and his eyes widened.

No, buddy?

You… ah?

Where is your integrity? Where is your dignity as an evil god?

Where did it go?

Herbert shook his head in anger and amusement: "My dear ally, don’t you think it’s too late for you to say this now?"

Sister, let’s have some shame!

【“Not too late!”】

Look at the correct version one by one!

But Nenasha didn’t care about this “little thing” at all, and said with a smile: 【“Anyway, you didn’t say anything before, and I didn’t finish my words~”】

Stand still.

“Okay.”

Herbert had no choice but to spread his hands and give up the prepared counterattack storm.

The other person has already given in and shrunk, and I can no longer choose the other person.

Forget it.

Just pamper Him.jpg

"So, what you said before was prejudice against me. I have always been so generous."

["Hmm, hm? Hmm, hm!"]

After hearing this, even though Ninasha had already rebelled, she still couldn't hold back and couldn't help but hesitate.

Brother, let’s show some face!

You are so generous as hell.

I know where you are big, but it’s hard to say where you are generous... Ahem, I just saw it.

Herbert didn't care about his reaction and said easily: "You are right. I did not intend to let Steven go before. I felt that he had value in using him and there was also a risk of being exposed here."

"But now, I've changed my mind."

"The reason for the change is not because he is a good father who cares about his daughter and values ​​his family."

He curled his lips and teased softly:

"If Steven is really, as he says, a good father who loves and protects his children...then he shouldn't be here at all."

Now that things have come to this, and have fallen to this point, do you remember that you are a good father?

It's a little too late.

"Although he is indeed so convinced and convinced himself, in my opinion, it is more of just wishful thinking and one-sided words."

Herbert curled his lips, but he had no intention of scolding Steven.

He wasn't familiar with Steven and didn't know what this bad guy's personal life was like.

Herbert would only interfere with those he cared about, and had no intention of interfering with strangers' lifestyles.

Don't know, don't care, don't understand, but respect.

"The reason I really changed my mind was because Steven had a new value."

He came to the spring and looked at Beilein floating in the water as if she had fallen asleep. He chuckled and shook his head.

Herbert did not disturb its sweet dream, but turned around and continued walking to the seaside.

"In addition, Ninasha, my approach is definitely not the kindness you say. If I must say, my approach now is more ruthless than before."

"Because, I am... fishing."

The young man smiled warmly and nodded gently to the priest girls beside him who bowed their heads shyly.

But in his heart, he was calmly describing his ruthless nature.

"After coming into contact with Beilin, I suddenly realized one thing... She is by no means the only peeper in this mountain range."

Even an egg can hide itself, or does it accidentally reveal its whereabouts... What about the others?

There can't be only one egg in this misty mountain range, right?

Herbert could think of the answer on his knees.

more than.

Far more than that.

"Perhaps, at this moment, there is still someone hiding in the dark and quietly peeping at us."

"Don't think I'm being alarmist."

Herbert smiled brightly, his eyes casually scanning the grass and trees in the territory, looking into the depths of the calm mist, and then quickly retracted his gaze.

【"Do you have a reason?"】

Ninasha did not deny the doubt, but asked Herbert why he believed so strongly.

["It can't be intuition, right?"]

"Of course not."

Herbert shook his head and mentioned a detail that was almost ignored: "Do you remember when we first discovered Sophia?"

["Of course, she just fought with the wolf king at that time...wait, is this the problem?"]

"Yeah, at that time I was just thinking about riding a horse, but I ignored a lot of doubts there."

Herbert was also a little sad.

At that time, I was only thinking about bullying the Holy Grail and touching the carriage's turn signal, but I actually ignored so many details.

"Rather, that matter itself is full of doubts."

"Is that wolf king really so obsessed with thinking that he wants to challenge Sophia? And he deliberately brought all his family wealth with him?"

Isn’t it good to be your wolf king?

Why do you have to challenge the legendary heroic spirits so hard and long for new territories?

Practice brings true knowledge.

Herbert came to an interesting conclusion after inspecting the ecological conditions of the Misty Ghost Wolves on the spot and helping them adjust their age distribution.

The number of mist ghost wolves is far from reaching the point where they need to continue to expand their territory.

Far from enough!

The available food is sufficient, the number of groups is not enough, and their own strength is not strong - no matter how you look at it, there is no direct conflict with Sophia.

So, the Wolf King went crazy when he howled? Turned into a madman who only knows how to challenge the strong?

Herbert had seen the Wolf King's memories and knew that it was not that kind of character.

It was a beast that was extremely good at forbearing and never lacked patience.

So, what is the reason that led the Ghost Wolf King to take the risk?

"According to my opinion, there is probably a real mastermind behind that ghost wolf king."

"The Wolf King was given false information, excessive confidence, and even some special help."

Judging from the results alone, although the ghost wolves were almost wiped out, they did only narrowly succeed in killing Sophia.

Herbert said he was doubtful, but in his heart he was almost certain of such an existence.

He must be real.

["From what you say, have you been tested?"]

"Yes, he was already provoking when he was collecting wolves, but his patience was quite good, and he actually endured it without making any reaction."

Why did Herbert want to kill and recover the ghost wolves all the way? One of his purposes was to lure the snake out of its hole and try to make the existence reveal itself.

"It is true that he was not exposed, and there was no trace at all... but he hid it so cleanly that it reached an unreasonable level."

If the water is clear, there will be no fish.

As the lord of a nearby area, it was impossible for him to not notice such a big movement from Herbert.

Not only did he not warn, but he acquiesced to Herbert's rampage - Herbert would definitely not believe it if he said he had no evil intentions.

"And Steven is just a bait."

"A guy who came out of the Eldar Territory and doesn't have enough strength to protect himself."

Herbert smiled and whispered: "I want to see if he can endure it this time!"

Will you continue to be patient?

Or actively exposed?

So exciting.

["What about this guy Steven?"]

"He... depends on his own destiny."

As a fisherman, Herbert had little sympathy for the bait on his hooks.

"The road was chosen by Steven himself. I didn't force him to become this bait."

Herbert easily put his hands behind his back and said leisurely:

"If he is lucky enough, he becomes a good father and returns to the Eldar to become my subject."

"And if it's unfortunate...hehe."

Who cares?

The path he chose was his own.
