Looking Forward to Another World

Everyone in the field, including Melo who just spoke, looked at Arad with cold, even hostile eyes.

no way.

Aurus is the city of the Principality of Libian, and this is the territory of the Principality of Libian. Li Ge and others are distinguished guests from afar, and all of them have noble status, far beyond what the Principality of Libian can compare with.

For such a small country city to welcome Li Ge and his group to visit, it is simply a big event like smoke rising from ancestral graves.

Li Ge and others were indeed entertained by the Principality of Libiang, represented by Arad, and stayed in a guest house arranged by them.

The results of it?

It doesn't matter that they were attacked on someone else's territory. The battle was so fierce and the movement was so alarming. The army of the Principality of Libion ​​actually didn't arrive until now?

This is no longer something that can be revealed simply by coming late.

"Commander Kesette, I now seriously doubt whether the Principality of Libion ​​really pays attention to the safety of the leader, and I also seriously doubt the capabilities of your country." Mero took a step forward and said aggressively: "Your Excellency will encounter you here tonight. It’s dangerous, even the Holy Sword was almost taken away by the Abyss believers. If you hadn’t turned the tide, you, the Principality of Libion, would have become a sinner!”

"I think you cannot shirk this responsibility!"

Hearing this, Arad's hands clenched unconsciously.

"It is true that we arrived a little late." Arad said in a deep voice: "But the alert and guarding of the manor were transferred to your hands because of the request of Your Highness and Your Majesty. Otherwise..."

"What if it's not the case?" Mero interrupted Arad's words without mercy, stared at him, and said: "You want to say that if I were a guard in your country, I would be able to prevent the scoundrels tonight. Do you have to pay the price for your success?"

"...don't dare."

"Are you afraid to think so? Or are you afraid to say it?"

"...Of course I don't dare to think so."

"That's really great." Mero sneered: "Given your performance in coming so late in this situation, if you can still brazenly say that your ability is comparable to or even better than the Imperial Knights, The most elite troops in the army and the priests of the Holy See, then I really wonder if the Principality of Libian has lost its head and can no longer recognize itself."

Arad's hand suddenly tightened.

Seeing him like this, no one present showed sympathy or pity.

It is true that the security of the guest house was replaced by the knights of the empire and the priests of the Holy See after they settled in. However, such a serious attack occurred here, and the whole battle was even more turbulent and lasted for a long time. At the beginning, those who attacked the manor were infected people in Aurus, and the number was still very large.

So many infected people came from all corners of Orus, but Orus didn't notice it at all and didn't make any reaction. This can no longer be said to be slow, but a dereliction of duty.

Then, this fierce battle spread to the entire manor and even the areas around the manor, turning the place into ruins. As a result, the army of the Principality of Libion ​​arrived so late. Is this blind or deaf?

No matter how slow it is, the opponent should arrive during the battle, join the battlefield, and help Li Ge and others.

After all, Li Ge and others were attacked on the territory of the Principality of Libian. However, the people of the Principality of Libian responded so slowly to this situation. This in itself is an unshirkable responsibility.

Fortunately, nothing happened to Lige and Shengjian. Otherwise, the Principality of Libion ​​would definitely be accused by various countries, forces and even races internationally, and it would not be impossible to eventually fall apart.

This is a delinquency, a dereliction of duty, and an even greater dereliction of responsibility.

Melo was also angry, so he spoke so aggressively and mercilessly.

"……I'm very sorry."

Unable to make any rebuttal, Arad could only lower his head and apologize deeply.

But Mero didn't intend to give up.

"I will truthfully report this matter back to my country and let my father know about it." Mello said coldly: "Your country should think carefully about how to deal with the mission sent by the empire during this period."

Arad's expression suddenly changed.

On the side, Nayisa also spoke calmly.

"The Holy See will also send an interrogation team to your country in the near future. I hope that your country can give us the Holy Sword Holy See a satisfactory excuse by then."

Such words, said by Nayisa, were extremely serious.

Yarad's expression changed again and again. He wanted to say something, but nothing came out. His face turned red.

"……I will."

In the end, Arad could only say this with difficulty to show that the Principality of Libion ​​would take responsibility for this incident.

Li Ge watched the whole process as if it was nothing to do before speaking.

"We can no longer live here, let's go back to the Sphinx."

After hearing Li Ge's words, the expressions of Nayisa, Melo and others changed from cold to respectful.

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Then everyone followed Li Ge and left here.

Even the knights and priests who were putting out the fire took their own wounded and left together.

Only Arad was left, standing among the ruins, looking at the sea of ​​​​fire that was still burning, his face extremely ugly.

"Commander, what should we do?"

At this time, an adjutant came forward tremblingly and asked in a low voice.

"...Leave some people here to clean up the aftermath and put out the fire, and the rest will go back to where they came from."

Arad spoke in a cold voice with a very bad look on his face.

"yes."

The adjutant immediately felt as if he had been granted amnesty and left quickly to continue his instructions.

Arad continued to walk slowly among the ruins with a cold face.

Without anyone noticing, he came to a corner in the ruins and took out a magic crystal for communication.

"This is different from what you agreed in advance."

Arad spoke with a bit of gritted teeth.

In his hand, the magic crystal for communication flashed slightly, and then a voice came out.

"The plan was perfect and we almost succeeded."

This voice, if Li Ge and others were present, they would surely be able to identify its owner, right?

Because the owner of the voice was there not long ago.

Shockingly, it is darkness.

"Almost succeeded?" Arad suppressed his anger and said: "Isn't that also a failure?"

"There is no way." The dark voice also seemed very depressed, saying: "Who would have thought that the person chosen by Holy Sword Marfa would have such strength when he first came?"

"Even that one suffered a loss at his hands and had one of his hands cut off. This kind of thing cannot be done even if the saints come."

"But he did it, and he did it without using the power of the Holy Sword."

"This savior probably already has the strength of a saint, and may even be more than that."

Hearing this, Arad's expression changed again.

"You said that young boy has saint-level strength?" Arad may not have noticed that his tone had become full of jealousy, causing him to say: "How is that possible? He is still so young..."

"Young?" Darkness sneered: "You have to know, Arad Kesette, this has never been something that can restrict those true geniuses."

"The current pope and the eldest princess of the empire are also very young, as young as the savior, but aren't they already at the same level as you, the so-called amber rank in the human race?"

"If they were the same age as you, with their talents, they might become saints."

"Unlike you and me, it seems like we are only one step away from that realm, but in the words of the savior, the distance is actually infinite..."

These words seemed to be mocking Arad, and they also seemed to be mocking himself, making Arad's face distorted.

He was really jealous and resentful.

Why can't I take the final step to become a saint despite working hard for so many years?

Why can those people set foot in their own fields casually, and even reach heights beyond their reach?

Others are saying that he, Arad Keset, is the person closest to the realm of a saint in the Principality of Libian, and the person most likely to become a saint.

Only he himself knows how far he is from the realm of a saint.

Just like what Darkness said, it seems like there is only one step away from this realm, but in fact, this distance is infinite.

My potential has been exhausted. No matter what, I can't take another step forward, not even half a step. I can only be trapped at the current level forever, and it will be difficult to break through for the rest of my life.

Otherwise, after using so many methods and doing so much exercise, how could he not make even a tiny bit of progress?

Even if there was even the slightest bit of progress, Arad would not be as desperate as he is now.

And what about those people?

Everyone is so young, but they have all reached their current level. Even the so-called savior has stepped into the realm of the saint one step ahead of him.

Why?

Why can they be so blessed but not themselves?

Thinking of this, Arad almost lost his mind with resentment.

"Anyway, I don't care." Arad followed his inner resentment and desire and said to the darkness: "According to the original agreement, when you deal with the leader of the Saint, I will make it easier for you to let anyone I can’t even bother you.”

"I have even revealed to you the design of the guest house and the other party's secret deployment. Otherwise, you would not have been able to break through the defense lines of the empire and the Holy See so easily, invade the manor, and send assassins into the mansion."

"I have done what I have done. Next, you must give me the reward you agreed on in advance."

"Help me...break through and become a saint!"

This is the real reason why Arad came so late and why the operation of the Dark Relief Center went so smoothly.

He was originally from the Dark Relief Center.

In other words, they are cooperating with each other.
