Fox Demon: God rewards hard work, I will eventually master martial arts and become a god

At least since they did this, there has been no special action from Ernest.

After all this was over, Seleucus was invited by Esdeath again.

"General Budd wants to see you. In the previous court session, Ernest clearly had intentions against you."

"It is likely that General Budd is curious about you because of this."

Esdeath said.

"We have to meet him eventually," Sailu said.

"But you have to be careful about what's going on lately. It may not be that simple."

"Including General Budd, everyone has a different standpoint, so they have different perspectives on things."

Esdeath warned deliberately.

So the residence of General Bud was given to Seleu.

Seleu arrived at General Bud's residence, which was smaller than he had imagined.

Most of the servants coming and going are soldiers. Like Esdeath, General Bud would probably have the habit of teaching his subordinates.

However, the people under General Budd all had a murderous aura.

After all, he is the one who holds military power. One can feel the obvious difference just from where he lives.

Seleu was brought to General Bud's door and knocked gently.

It was not until General Bud's voice sounded that Seleu pushed open the door.

It is night now, which is considered quite late for older people.

But even so, General Bud still hasn't rested.

He just sat in the chair, head down, dealing with various documents on the desk.

General Budd was a man who was harsh on his subordinates and even harsher on himself.

He just raised his eyes slightly when Sailu came in.

"Sorry, let me finish the things at hand first."

General Bud said softly.

Sailu stood there, not saying a word, just looking around the room.

This is considered a very old building, probably built decades ago, and even General Bud’s father’s generation may have lived here.

General Bud even had the virtue of frugality.

Strictly speaking, if we count the loyal people in the entire empire, their quantity and quality are actually not bad.

But even in this situation, Ernest still took advantage of the situation, causing the tyranny of the empire to continue to this day.

However, such a huge structure is now swaying in the wind and rain and is on the verge of collapse.

General Budd had the obligation to restore order and was the most likely person to do so, but he did nothing and instead stuck to his own opinion.

General Bud finished processing the documents and sat down in front of Sailu.

"The first time I heard of your existence was when I was in the court, that old fellow Ernest suddenly said he wanted to take action against the hunters."

"I don't know what the hunter did, but I want to see that guy Ernest do something desperate."

"So now I'm not letting him have his way."

General Bud paused here.

According to etiquette, it is time for Sailu to take over the conversation, and at least express his gratitude for General Bud's actions.

But Sailu didn't do that, and had no intention of doing such a thing.

She just waited quietly for General Bud to continue.

"I am a military commander, but I know the importance of civil officials. I protect a lot of people, so I can be considered a not insignificant force."

“But it was also after that day that the civil servants under my protection were attacked one after another.”

"Although I can provide them with shelter, I can't really chain them up for 24 hours."

"Based on the information left at the scene... it was done by the hunters."

General Bud placed the documents in front of Sailu.

His eyes were slightly narrowed, as if he was trying hard to see something from Sailu.

But Sailu just glanced at him indifferently.

"It's easy to tell that this is a frame-up. If I were to do this, I wouldn't leave such obvious traces."

Said Seleu.

General Bud did not see any panic in Sailu's eyes, and could not help but have a new understanding of this woman.

Sailu remained calm even when the sky was collapsing. He possessed the qualities that a leader should have. General Bud had not seen such qualities in others for a long time.

What’s more, she is a woman. The last person who behaved like this was Esdeath.

"I know this, so I called you here in the hope that you can handle this matter."

General Bud said.

"Let me handle this matter? Only Ernest would do such a boring thing. Shouldn't you be the one to confront Ernest?"

For a moment, Sailu thought he had heard it wrongly.

"I can't interfere in court politics, and there's no evidence to suggest that this is what he did."

"If you can get evidence, I can question him in court about his actions, but even then, he can use his power to shirk responsibility."

"So if you want to solve this matter, you can only rely on yourself."

General Bud said.

"That's ridiculous."

Sailu just left these words and then left General Bud's residence.

On some level, Seleucia was even angry about this.

Because what she saw was that everything in the empire would be corrupted, and a minister like Ernest should not have been in power.

He should have been dealt with when he first came to prominence.

But now he has obtained things in his life that he should not have, and has done things that he should not have done.

Seleu once again realized the nature of this country. She had even seen the demise of the empire in advance. Such a country had no reason or possibility to continue to exist.

"Sir, what should I do?"

Sailu couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

She talked to herself, calling out Trust's name.

"If you don't like the current state of this country, why not change it?"

“It’s like a sculpture. If it’s distorted, you destroy it and then reshape it.”

"This is the courage you should have. Before you know it, you have become a strong person. You already have the power to change this country."

Lin Yu's voice rang in Sailu's mind after a long absence.

"Sir, do you mean that I should take action against this country? But I don't think I can govern a country well."

Sailu couldn't help but ask.

"So Night Raid is still alive. With their help, you will understand a lot of things."

"Okay, I understand sir."

Sailu was silent for a moment.

After meeting General Bud, Seleu's last bit of fantasy about this country was shattered.

A figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and he waved at Sailu from a long distance.

The distance was close, and Seleucus could see that it was Esdeath.

Esdeath found her.

I walked with her through the city streets as usual. "How was it, meeting General Bud, was it any different from what you imagined?"

Esdeath will appear when Seleu needs help.

Perhaps when Esdeath looks at Seleucus now, her eyes are filled with her former self.

They have a lot in common, including the same talents and strong abilities. They have things they want to stick to, and will do whatever it takes to pursue what they want.

But as long as we are human, we will have a fragile and confused side.

There will always be such ups and downs in a person's life. The key is whether you can take a step forward and overcome them.

Esdeath appeared at this time hoping to help Seleucus.

"To be honest, it's nothing like what I imagined."

Sailu was silent for a while before he spoke slowly.

“You should have confidence in yourself. It is precisely because there are unreasonable things in this world that you were born and you are here.”

Esdeath gives Seleu a considerable amount of emotional value.

"Why are you so obsessed with me?"

Sailu suddenly asked.

From the beginning to the end, Seleucus regarded Esdeath as his superior. In Seleucus' eyes, Esdeath was a very good superior.

He is even willing to help Sailu take responsibility at critical moments.

But obviously to Esdeath, Seleucus is more than just an ordinary subordinate.

"A long time ago, I had Nadezhda by my side. Whenever I was unhappy, I would go to her and she would always be by my side."

"At that time I thought we would work hard together, but I didn't expect that we would choose different paths later."

"After Nadezhda left, the three beast warriors were the only ones left by my side."

"They are the subordinates in the past, because most of the things I don't want to do can just be handed over to them."

"In fact, I am pretty bad at this point."

Esdeath smiled.

"But they died, and I put it down to their weakness, and then you came along."

"You are not so weak, you are as strong as I once was. I realized that you will not leave easily. Maybe you will stay with me for a long time."

"If I must say it, it's because of your value, Sailyu. We are the same kind."

“We are born to change something.”

Esdeath patted Seleu's shoulder.

Take her shopping and do things they might do on a normal day.

Eat breakfast together, exercise together, do things together, and sleep together at night.

This simple and indulgent life lasted for three days, and during this time, Sailu enjoyed the long-awaited relaxation.

But Sailu was not an indulgent person. After three days, Sailu woke up in the morning sunshine, and his inner thoughts finally became firm.

Instead of waiting for death, take the initiative.

If we want to change this country, the one standing in the way is Ernest, and we must kill him at all costs.

However, before officially taking action against Ernest, the problem of the Four Rakshasa Ghosts needs to be dealt with first.

The civil servants they killed would be needed even after the empire was rebuilt.

So Seleu returned to the hunter.

And quickly made a plan.

Investigate the locations of the people who died on General Bud’s side.

Then determine who their next target will be.

The four Rakshasa ghosts are used to crushing others with their strength, so many problems in details are not covered up.

With the help of the other hunters, Seleu was quickly able to analyze their route.

However, as the number of recruits increased, the hunters became very busy.

Sailu also began to call in Night Raid, who joined the hunters in batches as applicants.

Seleu used his power to give them the green light and used the identity of a hunter as a hideout.

After the night raid was over, the wanted posters for them in the imperial capital disappeared.

Now, such a long moment has passed again.

The memory of the night raid began to fade in the imperial capital.

Now is a good opportunity for them to officially enter the imperial capital.

However, the hunter is very busy both inside and outside the house, so Sailu can only deal with the four Rakshasa ghosts by himself.

"Captain, isn't this too dangerous? I'd better go with you."

Lan said softly.

"There is no need for that. I will not take these four people seriously."

Seleu's answer was simple.

After dealing with all the hunter affairs at once, Sailu began to track the target who might be attacked at any time.

It is uncertain when the four Rakshasa ghosts will take action, so it will take a very long time.

But Sello is an excellent hunter, at least she has quite good patience.

On a quiet night.

The figures of the Four Rakshasas appeared above the city. They were not users of imperial tools, and they did not have the ability to fly.

But their body is their best weapon. They can rely on their strong physique to climb the walls of buildings and move quickly.

At this moment their eyes were fixed on the goal of this mission.

Another civil servant under the protection of General Bud, this is not the first target.

Even before this they had done the same thing five times.

However, with their skills and teamwork, they were able to escape unscathed every time they succeeded.

Their actions were swift and without any delay.

As a team that has been working together for many years, they are quite skilled in doing such things.

The target enters the secluded streets, and night is the best time to kill.

Ji scratched his hair, and the gentle night breeze blew into his collar.

"Get started." Ji smiled slightly and gave the order.

The four Rakshasa ghosts rushed out almost at the same time.

Their figures frequently flashed between the buildings, with brisk steps, trying to make as little noise as possible.

They tried their best to kill the enemy with one blow, and the four of them dived in four different directions.

The four Rakshasa ghosts were getting closer and closer to their target, and they stretched out their hands.

But in a flash, a figure suddenly appeared and intercepted all their attacks in advance.

The man was not very strong, but he was decisive in his moves and his steps were unusually agile.

His postures changed in a variety of ways, and he neutralized their attacks in an instant.

Even the target person didn't notice anything unusual and continued walking forward until he disappeared from sight.

The four Rakshasa ghosts landed steadily and subconsciously looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of them.

In the first moment of the fight just now, the attack was so fast that I couldn't even see the opponent's appearance clearly.

But when they saw the person in front of them clearly, they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. (End of this chapter)
