You and me under the world tree

Because according to that plan, as long as King Dietmar is killed and the palace and the entire Ravenna are under control in advance, it is impossible for the troops in the territory to gather any reliable counterattack forces.

Because the banner and position of the gods have been revealed, not everyone has the courage to confront the gods.

For most people, when the gods have made their stand and Sifka takes out the Eternal Spear, they should know which side they are on.

But now, the biggest problem is that the person who is a banner has fallen.

Moreover, in front of those people who were in the court back then, not only was Sifka's arm cut off, but even the so-called eternal gun that was said to come from the gods was broken.

Although no one seems to know what happened.

In the melee, who attacked Sifka?

Why was his arm chopped off?

How was the sword broken?

No one noticed this.

Anyway, when everyone realized this, Sivka had been thrown out like a rag.

In fact, if the palace minister with the broken arm hadn't knocked over a group of people, no one would have noticed that something happened to him.

But no matter how the process is, the important thing is that Sifka lost.

Even the spear of eternity that existed as a symbol was broken...

There are more than one witnesses, and more than one camp.

Envoys from neighboring kingdoms, confidantes of Prince Dietrich, loyalists of King Dietmar, and their subordinates who were coup d'état.

There are too many people and the composition is too complicated.

Elmrich was not stupid, so at that moment, he realized one thing:

The statement of the gods' statement is self-defeating.

Regardless of whether Sifka has won the favor of the gods or not, in the eyes of everyone, he is definitely a fake.

Therefore, after righteousness was cut off, the originally extremely legitimate coup changed its nature.

Originally, they could say that they had received the decree of the gods. As long as the counterfeit goods were eliminated, the favor of the gods would come to this land again.

Knowing this already, Elmrich even prepared a speech.

However, this speech was ultimately useless.

Even, when appeasing the terrified residents in Ravenna, he did not dare to speak publicly in this regard.

Because, this statement will definitely be broken in the future.

All he can do is to draw a good-looking big cake for them. As for the flour for making the cake, whether it can be ground is another question.

And more importantly, without the intervention of the gods, their behavior lost the most reliable 'motivation'.

And from the moment the brave Hiltebrand left, Elmrich could think of what they would do next.

Although Dittmar told them to go directly to Beian City, Hiltebrand is also a highly respected hero after all.

Therefore, he will definitely communicate with the surrounding troops quickly.

The first round of conflict will completely break out in the shortest possible time.

"It's just a pure power struggle..." Elmrich whispered

At this moment, I don't know if it was his illusion, but a hot feeling that made him feel extremely irritable came to his heart.

Immediately afterwards, he cast his gaze on the sea of ​​flames.

'Kara'

Accompanied by the flames soaring into the sky, there were continuous sounds of collapse inside the palace.

At this moment, the lord could not help but put his hand on his saber.

Although the saber hanging on his waist is not a famous sword, let alone a holy sword or a magic sword, it is also a rare and sharp thing.

A long memory unconsciously surfaced in Lord Lord's mind. At this moment, his heart trembled.

Not because of anything else, because this sword once belonged to Dittmar.

And a long time ago, this sword was delivered into his hands.

But that's all, he won't be moved any more.

However, the only pity is that the blood that this sword drank at the end happened to belong to its original owner: King Dittmar.

"El, if anyone wants to hurt or take advantage of you, use this sword to cut him directly, and I will cover everything with your elder brother."

"Tsk..."

Maybe it's because people are old.

When something happened, Elmrich's thoughts finally came out unconsciously.

In the end, he directly unloaded the blood-stained saber, and then threw it directly into the burning palace.

"Lord Lord..."

After seeing Elmrich's sudden movement, the surrounding guards couldn't help being stunned.

Immediately afterwards, the flame seemed to burn more vigorously.

At the same time, a low laugh echoed in the burning flames.

"Humph……"

It seemed to be a woman's voice.

It was probably a coincidence, in the palace, they seemed to see a hallucination of a ram.

That seems to be a monster with horns?

Chapter 67: The End of the Contract

Whether it's a low laugh or a so-called sheep-headed monster, these things are eventually dismissed as hallucinations of burning flames.

No one took it to heart, including Elmrich himself.

Because he can confirm that Dittmar is already dead, and he is the one who gave him the last sword.

He watched the man fall into the sea of ​​flames at last, and the shielding barrier he arranged to perish together also collapsed.

As for why you saw the sheep's head, it can only be said that it is day and night dreaming, coupled with the constant hot wind blowing, it is too hot.

Yes, it is like that.

After all, who told Dietmar and his son Dietrich to design armor based on rams?

Not to mention the current prince Dietrich, in fact, when King Dittmar went out to fight, he did not use the traditional eagle wings as a symbol.

He just branded the flying eagle pattern of the Amerungen family on the armor, and the battle helmet looked like a ram.

However, at that time, King Dittmar's actions were also understandable.

At least in the eyes of others, King Dittmar chose the distinctive but iconic ram armor in order to exert his influence.

Before him, the Gothic royal family had always displayed the traditional eagle helmet.

However, I am afraid that even Elmrich, who is the younger brother, would not have thought that the so-called ram was not an image that King Dittmar thought of at will.

It actually has a source, and that source comes from a certain contract he signed when he was young.

In the eyes of everyone, the once-frail man who always stood in front of him, who seemed extremely powerful, was never strong.

Even, he didn't have much attainment in magic.

After all, if you think about it carefully, you can understand. If Dittmar has powerful magical attainments as praised and rumored by the outside world, then why does he appear weak and sick?

However, all that is over now.

No one knows this.

No one knew that the reason why that man was able to make a comeback in a desperate situation was entirely because there was another 'person' standing beside him.

The impulsiveness of his youth gave him the strength to rival those so-called heroes.

Yes, in theory, if this power is fully liberated, he will be far above human beings.

However, he never used this power too much.

Never used lightly, not even in death.

Although it is a bit strange to say that, even the most basic kind of supernatural fire power, his daughter Dietrich used it more times than him.

Not to mention anything else.

"Maybe it's because of pity on life."

In the burning palace, a woman's voice slowly echoed.

Immediately afterwards, in the flames, a huge phantom of a ram slowly appeared.

yes ram...

If you just look at the head, it is indeed a horned ram.

However, the body of this ram is similar to that of a human, and it also has female sexual characteristics.

More importantly, it has a pair of wide wings.

It has to be said that this kind of weird creation is inexplicably tinged with horror.

But soon, this horrifying phantom quickly gathered, and it condensed into an entity—a woman.

It was a woman with white hair and red eyes, looking delicate and dangerous.

However, after all, her body retained the characteristics that belonged to humans and did not belong to humans: horns, tail and wings.

Moreover, completely different from the previous state of the spiritual body that only the contractor could see, she is now real.

"Ah, that feels so good."

Maybe it was because the flames burning around him couldn't do him any harm at all.

At this time, the demon just stretched calmly.

Immediately afterwards, she set her gaze straight ahead, where a blood-stained long sword was inserted there.

Looking at the long sword, she laughed.

That's a big smile.

"In order to save your own life, to protect the secrets of the contract, and to avoid attracting attention, you procrastinate again and again, refusing to push the entire kingdom violently, but playing tricks after forceful suppression."

At this moment, Mehmet couldn't help laughing.

Probably, she was laughing at the stupidity of her contractor.

"You have been shrewd all your life, but in the end you fell into the hands of the brother you once trusted and entrusted your back, as well as your own woman. It's really ridiculous, isn't it?"

Immediately afterwards, she slowly stretched out her hand, holding the unpretentious eagle-patterned saber.

She stared at the eagle-winged coat of arms on the hilt for a while.

"I tried my best to force myself to be vicious, but in the end I was still no match for the softness in my heart."

Not knowing who he was talking about, the demon Mehmet just whispered.

"If you were a little bit vicious, all these hidden dangers could be prevented... As a devil's contractor, but failed to control the heart and will of his own woman, how stupid you are."

She stood there, holding the sword, as if she was waiting for something, and seemed to be listening to something.

However, she could not wait for the familiar response after all.

Immediately afterwards, her hand touched the saber lightly, and the pattern on the hilt changed.

From a flying eagle to a ram.

This was nothing more than a random move by her, and if she insisted on the reason, even she herself didn't know the reason.

At this moment, the only thing she can be sure of is that she is very unhappy now.

Originally, today should be the moment when that man fully fulfills the contract, and it is also the moment when she uses the life enshrined in the contract to reshape her body.

She should be happy, happy—she herself felt so.
