The knight in the abyss

Chapter 710 Unexpected Partner

"No." Lancelow shook his head resolutely, the answer obviously exceeded the angel's expectations.

"But you just saved this town, and even confronted an abyss lord for it..."

"If you ask me if I have ever taken great risks to save others, I will proudly tell you that I have, and many times." Lancelow shrugged, "But you are asking if you will, this I can't give you a definitive answer. I'm not going to be too busy saving people all the time, and I'm not trying to save everyone, but I'm going to do my best to protect those who are important to me...or whatever life."

"Is that so..." Zariel nodded thoughtfully, "Thank you for your honesty, there is no correct answer to this question itself. Although it is somewhat different from my expectations, your belief is equally valid. Make the multiverse better."

"Thank you for understanding." Lancelot smiled, "This is all a test, right?"

"Yes." The angel raised the blue sword in his hand, "I want to see if you are qualified to hold this sword."

"I guess I'm not what you're expecting."

"Not exactly." Zariel smiled again, "But you still passed. After you get out, you can draw Zariel's sword from the Holy Throne and use her to fight evil..."

"Wait a minute." Lancelot raised his palm, "I still have some questions. Who are you? A mental fragment left by Zariel?"

"No, I'm not, although I hope I am." The angel showed a strange expression on his face, and stood the long sword in his hand between the two, "I am the sword of Zariel."

"Sure enough, I guessed it a long time ago."

A male voice suddenly sounded. The voice sounded deep, elegant, and magnetic. The only problem was that it didn't belong to anyone present.Lancelow raised his arm, looked at the dagger in his hand with a strange expression, and asked about his weapon:

"Starstrike? Are you talking?"

"Ah, yes." The melodious middle-aged male voice sounded again, and then a cloud of twinkling stardust appeared in front of Lancelot, and finally gathered into a man with bright silver hair, bronze skin, and starry clothes. The image of a male elf adorning dark blue robes, "How pleasant it is to meet at last, Sir Lancelot."

"Wait..." Lancelot's face was full of disbelief, "You actually have consciousness? Why are you talking to me now?"

"For a sword that has been buried underground for countless centuries, it takes time to wake up, and here I can conjure a specific image." Star Strike said in an apologetic tone, "And I also need Observe what kind of person you are. Besides, the number of times you use me is pitiful, which once made me doubt myself..."

"Of course you don't have any problems, but most of the enemies don't need to use a powerful treasure like you, and I don't want to be too ostentatious..." Lancelot scratched his head in embarrassment, "But since you are willing to If I speak, it should be satisfied with me, right?"

"Of course. But the more important reason is that I have to say something fair to you in front of my peers." The middle-aged elf bowed gracefully, "Hello, Sword of Zariel, I am Star Strike, my predecessor The sword of Iscodel, husband of King Eardard."

"I've heard of you." The Sword of Zariel said through the image of the former owner, "It is said that the Queen of the Stars used a fragment of the Star Realm to cast you. Is that true?"

"The legend is true, but I don't know if it's true. I think you don't know the process of your own creation." The elf man smiled, "But the topic of this conversation is not about me, but Sir Lancelot, my present master..."

"Since I can get the approval of a holy object of the Eratian clan like you, I don't have any doubts about the Jazz..."

"Things are not that simple." Star Strike shook his head, "Sir Lancelot is a great warrior with outstanding skills, a firm mind, and rich experience. At the same time, he also has a noble soul full of kindness, justice, and compassion..."

"You're amazing." Lancelow touched his nose in embarrassment, "I'm not as perfect as you said..."

"I haven't talked about your shortcomings yet." The middle-aged elf glanced at him with a smile, "First of all, you have greed beyond the limit of ordinary people's imagination... Don't deny it, don't forget what you did on the steel ice field, Let alone doing it, normal people may not even have that kind of thought.”

"Well, it doesn't seem to be a problem for you to say that." Lancelow raised his hands, "But I have to defend myself, my greed has never been aimed at the enemy, and I have never thought of taking all the spoils for myself ..."

"Hahahaha, you are indeed very generous, and that is one of the things I like about you." The elf laughed cheerfully, "The second point...you seem to be a little bit resistant to beauty, do I need to expand on this? ?”

"Is there?" Lancelot scratched his head in embarrassment, "But I think since you have observed me for so long, you should have observed... my lover, right?"

"Yes, and I was really scared at first." The elf's expression became serious, and he turned to face the angel who was curiously listening to their conversation, "This situation must be explained to you now... this human The knight, the object of his current allegiance, is a succubus named Tijana, who rules a neutral town named Shuangqiao Town on the Wanyuan Plain."

The angel fell into a stupor, obviously not expecting to hear such content at all, but just before her expression was about to be ignited with anger, the middle-aged elf transformed by Star Strike spoke again:

"But this succubus is also an outlier in Tanari. She doesn't seem...to be very evil, and I even occasionally see a flash of kindness in her."

"What?" Angel exclaimed in surprise, "How is this possible?"

"I was very curious about this too, and tried to figure out why, but it was what it was, and before her, I was briefly swung by another good succubus paladin and stabbed in the famous 'demon Mother Cang Ye's body...it was really a wonderful experience, and I will never forget it." The middle-aged elf made a not-so-elegant joke, "My advice to you is to be patient, like me Observe in the dark first, and don't rush to make judgments, unless Sir Lancelot really did something evil that you can't tolerate."

"...Thank you for your advice." Angel took a deep breath, "I will remember, let's go back..."

"Wait a minute." Lancelot said again, "I have some other questions... What is the true fate of this small town, Edelgrand?"
