Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 462 Chapter 461. Ancient Creatures
"I choose to believe Regis."

Lan En and Dettlaff were staring into each other's eyes from beginning to end, motionless.

The hesitation and stiffness of either of the two will be keenly grasped by the other.

What follows is suspicion, distrust, and then the conversation collapses.

But fortunately, neither of the two showed any of these suspicious emotions.

Lan En then emphasized again.

"I believe in Regis' ability and loyalty to his friends, but this has nothing to do with you, high vampire, Mr. Dettlaff."

With that said, Lan En stood up from the ground and patted the floating dust on his cotton armor jacket with his hand.

"I think I already know what to do with you."

Regis stood aside and bowed slightly to him.

But that gesture was more like a casual joke and teasing between friends than a ritualistic salute.

Regis is not a man who puts on airs, and his gentle manner is more impressive than his etiquette.

"Oh! I am deeply honored by your trust."

"Come on!" Lan En's face showed deliberate impatience, and he waved his hand as if to drive him away. "Don't speak in an aria. Your voice is not suitable for this."

Although Gede still had doubts on his face, he also walked over, and the three of them began to discuss how to deal with the high-level vampires in the cage outside the mine.

"We can't kill him, and Regis can't commit murder among his tribe and become a murderer."

Lan En crossed his arms and set the tone for this small meeting.

"As for reinforcing the suppression circle left by Anahad, even excluding the cost of collecting materials, we also know that the dwarves of Heinburg don't want to come again every few decades. They will not admit this. It’s a mission accomplished.”

Regis stood aside, still holding the strap of his shoulder bag with his hands, like a country tax collector.

There wasn't much worry on his face, because he probably already knew Lan En's attitude towards Dettlaff.

Gede, on the other hand, slapped his mouth, then scratched his re-shaved chin, with a conflicted expression on his face.

"Okay, after all, there is only one plan that works. Although we demon hunters often let go of some harmless monsters in missions, high-level vampires... Tsk, I have to say, my worldview has been improved. Shock."

Lan En patted Gede's shoulder in relief.

"The world is changing today, and it's changing faster and faster. It's better to adapt sooner rather than later."

"You don't need to comfort me, I can adjust myself. I said, you are the leader, you have the final say."

Gede waved his hands indifferently, indicating that he was okay with it.

Even if all three of them agree.

Lan En nodded, glanced into the mine and said.

"Then we have only one choice left - let Dettlaff go."

Ged and Regis both nodded.

Lan En looked at Regis seriously and changed his tone.

"But I'm not going to let him go just like that, do you understand, Regis?"

Regis frowned.

"what do you mean?"

"You saw from your telepathy that Dettlaff was a good man, and I trust you, so I don't doubt that. But you also saw that he killed an entire village out of anger."

Lan En said calmly. "The people in that village deserved their crimes, but there must have been innocent people killed. And Dettlaff's actions came out of his anger driven by his own moral values, and he was chopped into pieces and imprisoned for more than a hundred years because of his actions. . I tentatively think that he was punished and served his sentence, and there is no doubt about it."

"The only thing is: We have to make sure he doesn't seek revenge on the people who imprisoned him."

"Fortunately for the Bear School, Anahad has long since disappeared, and Hainkawehe has long been deserted, not even a mouse left."

"But what about the dwarves' Castle Hein? They hired us to handle the task. We can't release a revenge-seeking murderer for them. It's not acceptable either emotionally or rationally."

"Dettlaff didn't want revenge! He's a good man!"

Regis explained with a frown.

But Lan En spoke in a calm to cold tone.

"The promise is empty, and your understanding of him is limited to the telepathy at this moment. Regis, the word 'good guy' cannot be used as effectiveness. I need an effective measure to ensure that Dettlaff will not Do something like that.”

Regis's expression became more complicated than ever before.

This was the first time Lan En had seen Regis's expression since he met this gentle and friendly high-level vampire.

He knew that Lan En was right. It was necessary to ensure that prisoners could not retaliate against those in prison.

He even had a feasible plan to ensure that Dettlaff would not commit any crimes against Hainburgh in the future.

But it was this plan that had him so entangled now.

"It looks like he's just swallowed a big chunk of blue cheese."

Gerd was complaining about Regis's current expression. Lan En had never seen it, let alone him.

"It's not like he's swallowing blue cheese raw," the young man muttered to Ged, "I think it's more like he's walking on a tightrope at the mouth of a bubbling active volcano."

After a long time, Regis seemed to finally make up his mind and took a deep breath.

"Suck~ You're right, Lan En. My plan is like walking a tightrope at the mouth of an active volcano. It's dangerous and fatal. Even for a creature like me."

"Can you tell me about it?"

Lan En asked tentatively, but what he got was a wry smile from Regis.

"I will take Dettlaff to see an ancient creature. That creature is of supreme majesty to us. As long as he says something, then we have to do it word for word. I just imagine what will happen. Disturbing his peace makes my whole body tremble.”

"Making all of you higher vampires tremble? What is that."

Before Gede finished asking his curious question, Lan reached out and grabbed his shoulder, interrupting him.

"No, Gerd. Don't ask."

Lan En's voice was soft, but also firm at the same time, and Gede's curiosity died down.

Young people’s understanding of the world is not broad, but deep.Because he has come into contact with many existences deep in the world.

If the creature in Regis' words was one of them, then he thought it would be better not to inquire further.

After grabbing Gerd, Lan turned his head to look at Regis.

"You go meet that creature, and what happens next?"

"Then I will look at him and swear an oath in front of that creature, swearing that I will never retaliate against the dwarves and bear witchers of Fort Hayne for more than a hundred years of imprisonment. Don't worry, under the witness, even if Even the most audacious among us dare not break our word.”

"In that case." Lan En nodded, "Then it's okay for me. Let Dettlaff come out."
