Succubus should be self-improvement

There was a complex look on Jupirost's face: "The Commander of the Crusaders, Stalonto, is the most complicated and wonderful human being I have ever seen. I have indeed interviewed him for a long time, but I still have no way to say Find out what kind of person he is..."

He opened the thick notebook.The seemingly ordinary notebook seems to be a magical creation. The pages inside are endless, flipping through it with a clatter. Camilla saw the densely packed text and a large number of sketched pictures, and she didn't know if there were hundreds or thousands of them. Page.

Jupirost grabbed one of the pages with a drawing of a mansion, peeled it off, and threw it on the ground.I don't know what kind of magic is attached to the pages of the book, and it disappears as soon as it hits the ground. Then, in the empty warehouse, sofas, coffee tables, long tables, crystal lamps, cabinets, etc. were conjured out of thin air. All kinds of luxury furniture.

Claudia let out a gasp.

Jupiterost sat down on one of the small sofas that suited his size, and an invisible servant flew over immediately, carrying a cup of hot cocoa tea.He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Whether it's an interview or a narration, it's somewhat impolite to stand and chat. Please sit down, and I will slowly tell you the story about your previous life."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"When I went to interview the Crusader Commander, it was 4715, exactly four years ago, shortly after the Fifth World Wounding Jihad broke out."

Jupirost said calmly: "At that time, I was also tasked as a diplomatic envoy, representing a newly established country in the stolen land of the river countries, and went to World Wounds to meet with the Queen of Montivy. of."

"Huh?" Lyudmila put Camilla on her lap, and while stroking the cat, said in surprise: "So Mr. Jupirost is not only a writer, but also a diplomat?"

"After all, I have lived for a long time." Jupiterost calmly sipped tea, moistened his throat, and continued: "Before I went to World Wound, I heard that the new commander is a Hell Knight..."

"Wait a moment!"

Camilla raised the kitten's paw in surprise: "I was a hell knight in my previous life?!"

The "hell" in Hell Knight refers to the hometown of the devil.The Hell Knights can be called a group of devils walking in the world. Although they are not as evil as devils, they are as cold-blooded and ruthless as devils, and abide by a set of cruel rules.The soldiers of the Hell Knights are world-renowned for their discipline. Like a group of robots without emotions, they will meticulously implement the orders of their superiors. They are ruthless to others and very ruthless to themselves.

Many Hellknights take pride in becoming devils after death.

Camilla was numb, thinking, can I be a fucking hell knight?

What do you mean, could it be that I was too orderly in my previous life, so in this life things will go against each other?

can't...

Jupirost smiled and said: "I was also very curious at the time. Hell is a group of unwelcome guys. Many crusaders are unwilling to fight with the hell knights. If the hell knights die, other crusaders will even Will refuse support, because they feel that the Hell Knights are a group of cruel executioners and warlords, killing more of their own people than killing demons. It is really... . . was surprising."

There is a mixed bag of good and bad in the crusaders.Under the threat of the devil, the believers of the good god and the evil god can abandon their previous suspicions, fight against the enemy together, and become comrades-in-arms.But with his ruthless and ruthless style, the Hellknight managed to become the most hated existence in the Crusaders.

"Before I went out, I imagined countless times in my mind what kind of person that Stallone is. I guess he must be like other hell knights, like a cold robot, but he is probably a little gentler than ordinary hell knights A little bit, a little kind. But when we actually met, I realized that he was completely... different from what I imagined."

Claudia's eyes sparkled when she heard it, and when she was about to ask a question, an invisible servant flew over with a snack. Claudia quickly waved her hand and said no, but the invisible servant thought it was because she didn't like it, so she asked Switched the dessert from cookies to small cakes, and waited for her to eat with great anticipation.

Claudia had no choice but to pick up a cake and eat it.

It's a freshly baked cheesecake with a chocolate runny center.

Claudia ate one and moved on to the next.

Camilla asked suspiciously, "What kind of person am I?"

Jupirost took a sip of cocoa tea, and said: "Before he made his fortune, Stallonto was the follower of Regill, the deputy commander of the Hell Knights God Claw Knights. It is said that he was a civilian who was rescued by the God Claw Knights in an encounter. "

The Claw Knights are a very odd group of Hellknights.They believe in five different gods of order at the same time, but their behavior style is basically different from the creeds of these five gods, and they don't know where their divine power comes from in the end. Some scholars believe that maybe the hell knights come from their own beliefs gained strength.

Jupiter said: "Styronto has a very unique ability... He seems to be able to predict the future, he can always foresee the changes in the battle situation in advance, his eyes are very sharp, and his grasp of timing is also quite accurate. Because of him, the Claw Knights thwarted the devil's plot several times, but Regal disliked Stallonto...because he repeatedly violated orders in operations."

"Furthermore, although Stallontu became a servant of the Hell Knight, he has no talent in the way of the Hell Knight. No matter how he teaches, he can't comprehend the most basic chaotic power of the Hell Knight. Instead, he is self-taught in the way of the monk. "

He laughed: "Regill is also a dwarf like me, and he was suffering from depigmentation at the time. Depigmentation will make the dwarf slowly lose his emotions and become cold, but it is said that because of Stallone, Regal's depigmentation They all got better."

Regil... Camilla tilted her head and scratched the back of her head with her hind legs.

She also has some impressions of this name, although she can't remember who it is, but she vaguely feels that it is a reliable big brother with purple hair and a rigid face who is less than 1.2 meters tall and likes to use dwarf hook hammers...

Jupiter continued: "Later, in a surprise attack by the Soul Eater, Regil was seriously injured. After the battle, Regil and the commander broke out for the last time..."

Camilla was taken aback: "Wait a minute! What is the last time, is Regal dead?"

"No."

Jupiter shook his head and said: "At that time, the God Claw Knights were actually facing very serious problems. Due to their notoriety, in many people's minds, Hell Knights were even more difficult to communicate with than real Hell Devils. The army is not willing to go with the Hell Knights, nor is it willing to support the Hell Knights, and the people are also afraid of the Hell Knights, and are unwilling to provide them with supplies. Therefore, the God Claw Knights, which are active in the world's wounds, are actually in a desperate situation and are alone. situation."

"At that time, Regal himself was seriously injured... Maybe it was because he was tired, or he might have compromised. In short, after that battle, Regil handed over the command to Stallontu."

Camilla was shocked again: "Isn't Stallone at that time a Hell Knight's servant?"

The Hell Knight is a highly hierarchical military group, which is roughly divided into several classes.

The highest level is the Hell Knight Stick Officer, which is the "head" of each knight order.

Then there is the Bookkeeper, the civil servant among the Hellknights.

The Sword Holder is the frontline battle commander.

The Hell Knight, the Knight of the Knights, is a spellcaster in the Knights.

Then came the ordinary hell knights.

Then, there are the hell knight retinues, that is, informal, training hell knights, whose status is roughly equivalent to that of temporary workers.

In a group with a strict hierarchy like the Hell Knights, a temporary worker can actually become a leader, which is...

Jupirost explained: "Although Stallonto was only a level 1 hellknight retinue at the time, he was also a level 8 shugen monk, and he had proven his ability in many actions and had a very high reputation. .In addition to the need to act in a hurry, that’s why there is this special case.”

"After becoming the temporary leader of the God Claw Knights, Stallontu quickly implemented drastic reforms among the Hell Knights. I happened to ask him about this matter carefully, and he said so at the time..."

Jupirost sat up slightly, cleared his throat, and said: "Although the Hell Knights are very disciplined, the soldiers don't know why they are fighting. They are just out of fear of the instructors. The Hell Knights use Fear comes to train soldiers, so that soldiers are more afraid of breaking discipline than they are afraid of death. Although soldiers can strictly obey orders, because they are afraid of being punished by their superiors, they dare not cross the boundaries of rules and regulations, just like marionettes, losing their own subjective initiative. "

"But...hell knights, crusaders...what are you fighting for?"

"It's for people."

"The Montivy line of defense must not fall, because once this line falls, the frenzy of demons will spread. At that time, every corner of Golarion will become a paradise for demons. So here is the Hell Knight, What I protect is not only Montivy, but also my own country, my homeland, everything I love, but in the final analysis, it is for people."

"For all the mortal races of Golarion."

"However, the Hell Knights fought for such a noble reason, but they didn't realize it. So although the Hell Knights have strong discipline, they lack a sense of respect for the tortured people of this land. Empathy and love....and that's the very root of Hellknight's isolation."

Jupiterost paused, and said, "I was really surprised when I heard these words for the first time."

Camilla was silent for a while, and said, "What happened next?"

"later....."

Jupiterost said: "Staylontu held several mobilization meetings, selected a large number of book holders and sword holders from ordinary hell knights, and then did ideological education one by one, and then asked these book holders Carry out your orders to every soldier."

"In the past, Hell Knights would even execute the wounded in order to reduce their own casualties and ensure that large troops could retreat. However, the Hell Knights under the leadership of Stallontu will try their best to distribute rations to civilians when their own food is in short supply. In order to cover the retreat of the civilians, he will stay to fight and defend to the death...not only to give orders, but to take the lead in every battle. In just one month, he fought to the brink of death more than a dozen times, in order to cover his teammates. Multiple serious injuries."

"The other crusaders were unwilling to help, so Stallontu went over to ask for a little bit of food and personnel supplies, and he didn't care about the face of the Hell Knight."

"In addition, after each battle, he will hold a summary meeting, requiring every hell knight to join the discussion, reflect on the mistakes made in this battle, and study the next battle plan."

"These practices have caused great criticism for Stallonto for a long time. It is not easy to reform. The chief stick officer of the God Claw, Ray Saker, who is far away in Dingya City, has written several times to ask for the beheading of this deviant. His subordinates and other deputy stick officers have also come to put pressure on Regill many times."

"Under Stellontu's tireless efforts...within a year, the team he was on...."

Jupiterost said slowly: "The average level has dropped by two levels."

"...Huh??" The Camillas were dumbfounded: "How could they be relegated?"

Jupiter showed a sly smile: "Because the total number of people has more than doubled."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Jupiterost said slowly: "Since then, the Crusaders' impression of Hell Knights has changed a lot, and a large number of civilians and adventurers have joined the Knights. The Knights no longer have logistical problems, because his army Wherever they go, the people will spontaneously provide them with supplies."

"Styrontu's growth is very fast. He is a genius in command, and he is becoming more and more handy on the battlefield. He is familiar with the weaknesses of every demon, and can always make countermeasures according to local conditions. The Hell Knights have come out of the predicament little by little. He beat the demons to the ground several times. Many demons feared him more than the angels of the heavens."

"Styrontu's reputation is getting bigger and bigger, from the front line to Kanna Bliss, and even to the demon-occupied area, everyone knows it!"

Jupirost paused for a moment, and said: "By that time, Stallonto was already a level 15 professional, even stronger than the chief baton officer of the God Claw Knights, Lesaac, so he quickly announced , I and my soldiers broke away from the God Claw Knights, and called themselves [Dawn Knights].”

Lyudmila said in surprise: "Is it possible to get the approval of the Hell Knights without going through the discussion and decision of the superiors?"

"Of course not." Jupirost laughed: "So Stallonto not only broke away from the God Claw Knights...he directly threw off the entire Hell Knight system and went it alone."

"Okay!" Camilla was very excited, and supported her body on her two hind legs to stand up, and the cat clapped vigorously with its front paws: "I have seen those law-abiding people...the hell The knight is upset! As expected of me!"

Still hell, huh?What I hate the most is hell!

"Then..." Lyudmila said in surprise, "Can their knights still perform the magic of the hell knights?"

"No." Jupiter shook his head and said, "But it will be replaced by... the magic of the successor Iomedae."

[Glory of the Sword] Iomedae is the God of Justice, Justice, Sun and War, the most representative deity of the lawful good camp.This main god actually only has a history of more than 900 years. She is the youngest of all the main gods in Golarion. In the past, she was a mortal paladin. Son of Plane.

Later, after the mysterious disappearance of the human god Aroden, Iomedae passed the star stone test, ignited the divine fire, inherited the priesthood left by Aroden, and became a true god in one fell swoop, so she was also called "Successor".

Jupiter said: "Goddess Iomedae has been paying attention to the battle situation of World Wounds, and at that time, it was probably the first time she officially paid attention to Stallontu. Iomedae's sacrifice is Stallontu's Daybreak Knights Assisted in every possible way.”

"And then...the crucial battle to retake Juanze City."

He asked, "Do you still remember Juanze City?"

Camilla thought about it carefully: "I have a little impression, but I can't remember clearly."

Jupirost explained: "Junze City is one of the most important fortresses of the Crusaders in the World Wound. This city was once the border fortress of the Crusades of Montevi, but in 4638, the demon army counterattacked The fall of the Middle East forced Montivy to embark on what would become the Second Crusader Crusade."

"Juanze City is not only dangerous in terrain, but more importantly, there is an artifact called [Heroic Front] in that city, which is a banner blessed by the true god, which can suppress the advanced teleportation of demons within hundreds of kilometers. Ability. If there is no heroic front, the World Wound battlefield is completely an amusement park for demons to come and go freely."

"However, from 4638 to 4715, the second, third and fourth expeditions all ended in failure."

Jupiter put down his teacup, and said bitterly: "It is said that the demons are not united enough, but in fact, there is no unity within the Crusaders..."

"There are too many forces within the Crusaders. There are all kinds of sects and nine streams. There are good and bad people mixed together. In addition to the conflict of beliefs, there are many people who are mixed in it, and they are just for profit. Many businessmen shoddy, shoddy food and Selling weapons to the crusaders, and even daring to make deals with demons, the cult belief of worshiping demons is also spreading in the dark day by day..."

"Although demons are crazy, they are not stupid. Succubus and Lilitu are especially good at infiltrating. There were defenders who were bewitched by demons, and finally opened the city gate to let the army of demons enter the city. After several tragic incidents, The entire crusader was shrouded in a terrifying atmosphere of mutual suspicion. Under the suspicion of Patriarch Huerlen, most of the energy of the crusaders was devoted to witch hunting, suspicion, and internal cleansing, and they were completely unable to advance to the front. .”

"Of course... Actually, at that time, the crusaders were unable to advance. The demon army was getting stronger day by day, and the crusaders basically could only hide in the defense line formed by the guardian stone. The demon lord Deska Rui's general [Echo] even came down in person, almost entered Kanna Bliss, and pulled out the guardian stone."

"Echo..." Camilla stroked her cat's whiskers.

When this name was mentioned, a shadow suddenly flashed in her heart - an ugly, locust-like shadow.

"Echo is the quasi-demon lord under Descarrie, one of Descarrie's right-hand men."

Jupiterost said: "Except for not having his own territory, Echo's power is almost the same as that of many demon lords. When that monster came, the town suddenly fell into panic, and the silver dragon Trentilif who guarded the town In order to cover the retreat of the people, the lady had to show her real body and fight the echo, but she was no match for the echo at all...Fortunately, at that time, in your previous life, Stallontu was also in Kannabris."

Jupirost took out a pipe from his bosom, bit it in his mouth, but did not light it.

His expression was delicate and authentic: "At that time, Stallone was only a level 16 professional...but he was so strong that he actually injured Echo. With the cooperation of him and Yinlong, Echo was repelled and besieged Kan Nablis' demon army was wiped out by the Knights of Dawn, and they won the battle..."

Camilla was worried, thinking to herself, why do I always feel that that silver dragon is also having an affair with me... It's over, why do I feel that there are more and more lovers in the previous life...

She wanted to ask a question, but didn't dare.

Jupiter said: "The victory of Kanna Bliss even alarmed Queen Godfrey of Montivy...the Queen came to the front line to meet Stallontu in person. After that, Stallontu proposed an extremely crazy idea. An extremely risky plan—take the initiative to attack and take back Juanze City.”

"Most people in the crusaders thought that this plan was simply whimsical, because the crusaders simply didn't have enough troops, but Stallontu finally convinced everyone, including the queen. It is very important to say that this city, especially the artifact [Heroic Front] in the city, is the key to the victory of the Crusaders... Moreover, for some reason at that time, the demon general guarding Juanze City, Aponarisius, the six-armed snake, happened to be away."

Some hazy memories emerged in Camilla's mind again.

"But that's a trap, isn't it?" she said.

"That's right..."

Jupirost bit his cigarette holder and took a deep breath: "The entire Juanze City is a trap set by the demon Mingna Gu, targeting the Crusaders, or Stallontu."

"[Heroic Front] has long been defiled by demons, and lost all its power. Stallone led his army to kill Zecheng, and all he found was a piece of rag. Demons like mountains and seas are lying in wait for the crusaders to enter After entering the city, they all entered the arena through the advanced teleportation technique, and the six-armed snake demon general Aponarisius did not leave at all, and the female demon almost killed Queen Godfrey during the battle."

"But... maybe it really was a miracle. In the desperate situation, Stallontu grabbed the rag and shouted loudly. The blood flowing out of his body actually made the flag burn.... The destroyed [Blade of Heroes] has regained its brilliance."

"That was Stallone's first [sublimation]."

"The power of the artifact greatly suppressed the demon. Aponarisius was killed on the spot, and Mingna Gu's tail was cut off, and he jumped out of the window to escape in embarrassment."

"After that battle, Stallontu was crowned Supreme Commander of the Crusaders."

"Everyone expects it."

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Claudia was fascinated by what she heard, and couldn't help but glance at Camilla, thinking, how could this guy be such a great person in his previous life?

Camilla got a little irritable and raked the ground with her claws - but then she realized that the so-called "ground" was actually Lyudmila's thigh.With such a paw, Lyudmila immediately slapped her on the head. The slap made her dizzy, and the ears of the plane stood up.

Jupirost raised the corners of his mouth with a smile, trying to cast a small spell to light the pipe, but he raised his hand halfway and put it down again.

He said unhurriedly: "Most people imagine that when a hero rises to the position, the situation will improve immediately, but this is not the case in reality. Juanze City is a great victory for the crusaders, but for the demons, it is actually a big victory." At best, it’s bringing the situation back to the first expedition.”

"Moreover, hidden dangers within the Crusaders still exist. A large number of cultists appear everywhere like cockroaches, infiltrating the Crusades like a sieve, and the frontline troops suddenly defect or are wiped out every now and then... .”

"In addition, the internal situation of the Crusaders is equally complicated."
