The Devil Does Not Need to Be Defeated

About half an hour later, outside the Royal Capital West Gate, two figures appeared and walked slowly towards the distance.

Looking at the scene where Lucy is walking forward aimlessly, Skien is still inquired.

“By the way, what are you going to do?”

Skien didn’t guess Lucy’s goal.

Lucy didn’t look back, as he continued to move forward, he finally started to understand.

“Actually, there have been unnatural activities in the monsters around Royal Capital recently.”

Lucy suddenly said so.

“monster?”

Skien blinked.

“Yes.” Lucy nodded, said: “Originally, near Royal Capital, there have always been various monsters with relatively high levels. They are also the main targets of Royal Capital’s Adventurers. Because some of these monsters even want to attack Royal Capital. For Royal Capital, it is not a big or small harm.”

Because Royal Capital has barriers to guard the city walls and gates. Knight Regiment has always been guarding patrols. In addition, Adventurers will go out hunting due to various commissions. The harm of monsters wandering around Royal Capital is not high. Conversely their body materials are very good for many people. There is a demand, so Royal Capital has not thought about driving them all out or even cruising them.

But recently, there has been some anomaly in their activities.

“According to reports from Knight Regiment and Adventurer Guild, monsters near Royal Capital have recently left their fixed habitats, and some have become irritable and restless, as if they noticed What kind of terrible threat, I didn’t dare to approach Royal Capital at all, and lost track in order to stay away from Royal Capital, which caused some trouble to Royal Capital’s monster material supply.”

Lucy whispered.

“In addition, recently I have often received reports of suspicious characters lingering around. Royal Palace decided that this anomaly could not be ignored, so it decided to investigate.”

As a result, the Royal Palace and even the Royal Family have raised their hearts.

“Some people claim that the suspicious characters hovering around Royal Capital seem to be members of the Demon Race headed by the visiting Demon Race representative.”

Lucy’s words, let Skien was surprised.

“Are you talking about the Demon Cadre named Jacinta?”

Skien remembered the somewhat frivolous attitude and gave him the rare powerful Magic Wand as a reward for his Demon Race youth.

“Yes, it’s him.” Lucy complexion became serious and said: “Originally, after the audience was over, as Demon Cadre, he would return to Demon World and would not stay in Royal Capital. , But I don’t know why. Since this period of time, he has been staying in Royal Capital and is unwilling to leave. Even if someone asks him for the reason, he will eventually be perfunctory.”

This is a bit troublesome. .

“We held that audience because of the Old Demon Race Faction. We thought it would end there, but Demon Cadre was unwilling to leave. He stayed here for no reason. During the stay, Royal An unnatural phenomenon appeared near Capital.”

“Plus the suspicious character wandering near Royal Capital is from the other side, this problem is really big or small.”

“At least, now, in the Royal Palace, there are people who think that Demon Cadre intends to carry out some conspiracy to do something bad to the kingdom rumor.”

Lucy turn He glanced over, staring at Skien.

“If this is not handled well, I am afraid it will become a diplomatic issue between the human race and the Demon Race.”

So, this matter must be investigated, handled properly, and then A good solution.

Otherwise, regardless of diplomatic issues, the unnatural phenomenon that occurred around Royal Capital is enough to cause a lot of people’s anxiety.

“The Royal Father attaches great importance to this matter. For a while, he has been following Jacinta-dono’s movements. Onee-sama also tried to contact the people of Demon Race, hoping to collect some from them. Intelligence, or simply let the people over there to contain Jacinta and call him back.”

Lucy said.

“And I am responsible for investigating the unnatural phenomenon around Royal Capital. This is the reason why I am out of the city.”

hearing this, Skien understands.

It’s just…

“Even if you want to do this kind of thing, at least bring a little more people?” Skien puzzled said: “This is the first time I saw Her Royal Highness went to the Wilderness alone to investigate the matter.”

The surrounding area of ​​Royal Capital is so vast, where do you start the investigation?

At this time, using crowded tactics is the most appropriate approach, right?

Lucy naturally understands Skien’s meaning.

“But we have tried several times and sent Knight Regiment several times to investigate. As a result, the people on Jacinta-dono are also very shrewd. They can detect the movement every time and hide in advance. As a result, we did not find anything.” Lucy helplessly said: “There is no way, we can only use a small number of people to conduct investigations, so as not to alarm the people over Jacinta-dono and conduct investigations secretly.”

So this is a helpless action.

“Then you don’t have to come and investigate by your Royal Highness yourself?” Skien was still a little puzzled, and said: “Although you are very strong, all your skill sets are close combat type combats. Skill, there is no espionage skill used for detection or investigation, right?”

Such Lucy went to the suburbs to conduct investigations alone, which is not an operation that Skien can understand.

Of course, there are reasons for this.

“I asked for it this time.” Lucy said, “You also know that I have Goddess of Fate’s blessing, right?”

“Yes.” Skien nodded, Oddly said: “How? Could it be that in addition has something to do with this blessing?”

“That’s it.” Lucy smiled and said: “Because of the Goddess of Fate’s blessing relationship, I myself I can also receive some blessings from destiny. If it is something that must be solved by me make a move, through the traction of destiny, I will eventually touch the problem itself in various accidents and coincidences.”

“In other words, I’m not only lucky, and it’s so good that I can always be at the center of the problem and solve the problem without knowing it.” Lucy cast a meaningful gaze toward Skien and said: “I can meet you and know what’s behind you, perhaps because of the traction of fate.”

“It is best.” Skien rolled the eyes and said: “Then you mean, yourself Is it possible to find clues when I come here to wander around?”

“That’s how it is.” Lucy said resolutely: “Don’t think it’s unreliable. For so many years, every time I Whatever you want to solve, you will meet it successfully in the end. I believe it will be the same this time.”

Skien wants to say that your honey confidence really shows me.

Take luck is to say luck. The first time I saw luck, it was so refreshing and refined.

However, since God’s Blessing is involved, you can’t complain too quickly.

Otherwise, if you are a slap in the face, it is Skien that hurts, not the off-line princess.

“Only what should I do if I want to leave?”

Skien began to sigh.

Wasting my precious time as a student studying for this kind of thing, don’t take it off afterwards, but don’t think I’ll give up easily, talk.
