"Oh... I'm so sorry...!"

The girl who woke up again stood in front of Duanmuhuai with a smile, lowering her head to apologize.

"Just now I thought you were the demon general leading those dragons, so I accidentally took action... After all, look at you like this... Hahaha..."

"You are the princess that others are talking about?"

Duanmu Huai took a look at the girl in front of him. He had to say that although she was a crazy girl, she was still good-looking. She was also lively and cute. Duanmu Huai had really seen this type before——Well, no Knowing why, he smelled something familiar from this girl...

"That's right, hello, my name is Agnesfia Wen Paretia, just call me Agnes. Are you the Iron Warrior that everyone calls you?"

"Yes, I am Duanmuhuai, and this is Ogis."

"Um……………"

Anisfia circled Duanmuhuai twice and looked curiously at the power armor on his body.

"What a strange armor. I've never seen it before. It's almost like a robot... It's nothing, but how do you fly? Do you use magic?"

"Of course not, I have my own way."

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he pointed at the jetpack behind him, and upon hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Anisfia's eyes shone.

"Wait, does that mean this can make you fly? Can you let me see the structure inside?"

"Of course not."

Duanmuhuai decisively rejected Agnesphia's request. Just kidding, you can see the Inquisitor's power armor if you want?

"Huh? Please! I'm just taking a look, I won't do anything."

"You're kidding, do you think I will believe what you say?"

"I'm the princess of this country, right?"

"A princess in name only, why do you think I will obey you?"

Duanmu Huai didn't care about the opponent's threat. She was just an indigenous princess from a local planet, and she still had no power. How dare she make mistakes about the Inquisitor's equipment? I am really tired of living.

"Why……………"

Seeing that Duanmuhuai refused to let go, Anisphia sighed helplessly.

"Okay, but this is really a direction I haven't thought of. Indeed, if it is this kind of equipment, it can free up your hands better and allow you to move flexibly... Ah, by the way, my material————! Mr. Duanmu, see you later!"

While making a strange cry, Agnesphia turned around and left quickly. Seeing the princess leaving like a gust of wind, Duanmuhuai also shrugged his shoulders and looked at Ogis. .

"Do you think she looks a lot like someone?"

"install."

"Yes, do all magic geniuses have similar problems?"

Duanmu Huai curled his lips. In fact, although he only chatted with the princess named Anisfia, the feeling she gave him was exactly the same as An's. She was lively and active, could not sit still, and was fascinated by what she saw. Things just go in...

"Forget it, it has nothing to do with us. Go back, Ogis."

"Yes, Master."

After that, Duanmuhuai and Ojisi returned to the hotel to rest. For them, this was just an ordinary battle.

Unfortunately, this is not the case.

Early the next morning, guards wearing royal armor came to the door, saying that His Majesty the King wished to meet the hero who had defeated the dragons last night, so in desperation, Duanmu Huai had no choice but to bring Ogis to the palace. .

In the palace hall, Duanmuhuai met the king who ruled the country - Orfen Il Paretia.

The man sitting on the throne was indeed somewhat regal, but Duanmuhuai still stood there, staring at the man in front of him with his head held high. As for Ojisi, she just jumped down from Duanmu Huai's shoulder and stood quietly beside Duanmu Huai - she had no interest in saluting anyone other than Duanmu Huai.

After all, he is the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition. Not even the Emperor can make him bow his head, let alone the king of such a small indigenous country.

Of course, others clearly don't think so.

"Bold, why don't you salute in front of His Majesty the King!"

Seeing Duanmu Huai standing in front of the throne without any sign of surrender, the guards beside the king also shouted angrily. Hearing his angry shouts, Duanmu Huai just glanced at him. The next moment, the guard felt as if his chest was hit by a heavy hammer. He couldn't breathe and collapsed to the ground.

Seeing this scene, other guards also drew their swords and pointed them at Duanmuhuai, but Duanmuhuai didn't pay attention at all. He just snorted coldly and looked at the king.

"What do you want from me? If nothing happens, I will go back first."

"Okay, don't be so excited, this warrior."

At this time, the king also spoke, and at the same time he waved his hand, indicating to others to put away their weapons.

"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid this royal city would have been in flames of war last night. I would like to express my gratitude to you... Speaking of which, I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Orfen Il Paretti. Ya, haven’t you asked the warrior your surname?”

"The Grand Inquisitor of the Tribunal, Duanmu Huai, this is my companion Ogis."

Duanmu Huai responded calmly, and after hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the king pondered for a moment.

"The Tribunal... forgive my ignorance, I have never heard of this organization."

"Of course, because the Inquisition has never appeared in this world."

"But you are here now? Why?"

"Because the goal of the Tribunal is to protect humanity at all costs and to eliminate all existence that threatens humanity."

Duanmuhuai stared at the king and spoke again.

"And now, the demons are posing a threat to humans, so we are here and want to go to the north to completely eliminate the demon king and defeat the demon army."

"I see, it seems we have the same goal."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, a smile appeared on the king's face.

"In that case, is your Excellency the Inquisitor willing to cooperate with us?"

"cooperate?"

"Yes, perhaps you have heard that in the near future, my son Algard will personally lead the Paretian Kingdom's army to launch a battle to regain the Northland Fortress."

It seems that the rumors in the tavern are indeed true.

Hearing the king's words, Duanmu Huai's face was expressionless, but he sneered in his heart.

"It is imperative to recover the Northland. Only by reactivating the great barrier in the northern fortress can we prevent the demons from continuing to move south. If it is only on the ground, then we still have ways to deal with the demon army, but from the sky The attack is really beyond what we can handle."

That's true. In ground combat, quantity and skill can make up for it, but air combat is another matter.

"So, when I learned that you easily defeated the invading dragons, I thought of this. I hope that the Inquisitor can work with us to retake the Northland Fortress. After all, being able to fly in the sky There are not many people who can fight and destroy demons and dragons easily."

After saying this, the king's expression became serious.

"Of course, I won't let you work in vain. Power, status, wealth, everything you want, I can give you. No matter what kind of request you make, as long as it is within the scope of what I can do, there is no problem. "

"Um……………"

After hearing what the king said, Duanmu Huai also started to think about it. It was not surprising that the king would say this to Duanmu Huai. After all, as mentioned just now, there is no one in this world who can fight against the demons in the air. This is why humans are currently One of the reasons for being at a disadvantage, it can even be said to be the biggest reason.

After all, the other party can fly the kite in the air leisurely, but you have the strength on the ground but can't use it. This is really annoying. And Duanmu Huai repelled the dragons yesterday and killed more than a dozen giant dragons. He was already considered a dragon-slaying hero - although strictly speaking, those giant dragons were just ordinary goods in Duanmu Huai's opinion.

At least compared to the giant dragons I encountered in Manalia, these are just ordinary dragon species.

He doesn't even know how to roar.

But before that...

"Yesterday's battle was not my fault alone."

Duanmuhuai stared at the king.

"Besides me yesterday, there was also Miss Agnesphia who also worked hard to expel the dragons..."

"Ugh..."

Hearing the name from Duanmu Huai's mouth, the king's expression changed slightly. Then he stretched out his hand, took out a medicine jar from his arms, took out the pills and put them in his mouth.

That wouldn't be stomach medicine.

"To tell you the truth, that is my little girl... In fact, this is another reason why I hope you can help me. I have always thought that my little girl's random thoughts are just whimsical fun, but last night The battle proved that she can indeed fight against the demons in the sky - in this case, it is inevitable for her to go to the battlefield, so... I hope that the judge can take good care of her."

After saying this, the king sighed silently.

"Although the child is naughty by nature, she is my daughter after all. I don't want her to have any problems, both in public and private matters. Although the child often gives me a headache, I don't want to lose her either. This is just a child. Father’s request…”

"All right."

After listening to the king's words, Duanmu Huai didn't care too much and just nodded.

"I'll look after her."

"Thank you very much."

Seeing that Duanmu Huai agreed to his request, the king's expression softened a lot.

"I heard that you are still living in the hotel. Since we are already in an alliance, is your Excellency the Inquisitor willing to go to the State Guesthouse to stay?"

"No, I'm more accustomed to staying in a hotel."

"Well, in that case, I won't say anything more."

The king didn't pay too much attention to Duanmu Huai's rejection of his proposal, and just nodded.

"If your Excellency the Judge has any other requests, you can come to me at any time. In order to protect the country, I will do my best to fulfill your needs as long as they are within my capabilities."

"For now, I'm just hoping to get to Northland as soon as possible."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty the Inquisitor."

Hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, the king smiled slightly.

"There will be an opportunity soon."
