Chapter 47: Chapter 47: Critical Intelligence Regarding a World Crisis
Reji raised his hand, and Shermen once again plunged the dagger fiercely into Ariel's thigh flesh.
"AhIt hurts! You Bastard stop!!"
"Ahaaaaah!"
This noble lady, who seemed to be showing off something, reminiscing something, instantly could no longer speak, her cute face now twisted in severe pain, leaving only screams.
Perhaps Ariel's frantic screams were too loud.
Or perhaps, driven by a belief and humiliation, one of the male elf actually faintly regained consciousness, recovering some awareness.
The male elves in the basement had not been drugged much by Ariel.
They were mostly restrained and whipped.
After all, Ariel needed them to be awake, serving as "audience" to watch the process of their female elf companions being tortured, thereby gaining excitement from it.
Seeing that an elf had actually woken up, Reji immediately went forward, unlocked the shackles of this elf race member, trying to help him lie down to rest.
But, the elf shook his head at Reji.
Lamush knew the condition of his body.
It was impossible for him to survive.
Being able to wake up now was partly a resurgence of vitality and partly because he still had a "mission" to complete.
Thinking of this.
Thinking of the "mission," Lamush's dim green pupils filled with guilt and regret.
He was following the elders' instructions to report the prophecy of the "Demon Race's Descent" to the princess who had entered the human Royal City ahead of them for reconnaissance.
However, living in the outskirts forests and unfamiliar with human cities, they were completely disoriented upon entering the Royal City.
Originally, this was not a problem, as the elders gave them the Forest Flute, which had a special spell that could allow the princess to sense them. They just needed to wait for the princess on the spot, but.
But then a "kind-hearted" human noble appeared, seemingly noticing that they were from out of town, lost in the Royal City, and "kindly" offered to help them.
At that moment, as the leader, he hesitated.
But then he was bewitched, attracted and deceived by the appearance and sweetness of that human noble girl, abandoning the use of the Forest Flute, and brought his companions into this human noble's manor, this. demon's residence!
'It's all my fault, if it wasn't for me, how could everyone. everyone.!!'
Lamush's endurance up to this point.
Was all supported by this breath of regret.
He absolutely could not fall.
And now.
By the grace of the God of Nature!
Although Lamush had one eye gouged out, his blurred vision could still make out some.
That human girl, that noble young lady who was even more malicious than the demon race, her current state was no better than theirs, tortured miserably and painfully by another human with purple short hair, her belly torn open, her thighs covered in blood.
Before, Lamush might have stood on a moral high ground, embodying the kindness and compassion that a high-ranking elf should have, to criticize this human with purple short hair.
Even if the other party had committed a crime, they should not be subjected to such vigilantism; they should be handed over to the public and the grand judge for a vote and judgment.
But now.
The only thing Lamush desired and was furious about was that he couldn't personally take revenge on this human girl, to reciprocate the torture and retaliate against this malicious noble miss.
However, Lamush quickly pulled his consciousness back.
His breath was getting weaker.
With his last breath, Lamush weakly said to Reji, who had rescued him and punished Ariel:
"Human."
"Please, Go quickly. Find the Princess at the Academy."
"Important intelligence. The prophecy confirms the demon race's return. The new sealing method must be finished quickly. quickly.
handed over to the human kingdom's king."
In fact, Lamush had already lost faith in humanity.
He even hated humans as much as he hated the demon race.
He thought, if he could send out the intelligence to the outside world, then the descent of the demon race would be secondary; he must tell the princess to run away! To tell the other elven refugees to run away, humans are not worth it, they are also a bunch of devils!!
A bit darker in his private thoughts,
Lamush even hoped that the descent of the demon race could slaughter these damned humans for him and avenge him and his companions!
This shows how much Ariel's perverted torture of this group of elves, both mentally and physically, devastated them.
But the arrival of Reji made Lamush once again believe in humanity at the bottom of his heart.
He believed that abnormal noble girls like Ariel must be a very small minority among humans.
And humans like Reji, who are just and brave, represent the majority of humanity!
This also conforms to the will of humanity that could defeat even the terrifying demon race a thousand years ago!
So, in the end, Lamush chose to tell Reji the intelligence, to the person who helped him achieve his revenge.
The elf's intermittent voice finally fell silent.
The string that supported Lamush to live on also completely snapped.
The elder elf, Lamush, fell into Reji's arms, losing the last bit of life breath.
He didn't want to live on anymore.
Having betrayed his companions, for an elf's pride, living was a greater torture; Lamush yearned for death.
However, the expression on the elf's face before dying was still one of relief, as if a burden had been lifted.
Because he was not blinded by "hatred."
He still overcame his personal desires.
He still maintained the noble qualities "belonging to the elves".
In the end, he at least succeeded in sending out the important intelligence regarding a world crisis entrusted by the elder.
Lamush's final wish was to pray to the Nature God that He would protect this human and successfully find their princess.
.
Apart from Lamush, Reji checked the other elves. The female elves, needless to say, had their minds completely destroyed by drugs, beyond recovery. Even if they were alive, they were nothing but walking corpses.
Among the male elves, aside from Lamush, unfortunately, Reji couldn't find a second elf who was still breathing.
The clues about the "elves" in the basement thus came to an abrupt end.
Reji could only focus all his thoughts on Lamush's last words.
Although the elf spoke in a dying breath, there was not a single unnecessary word, all focused on the key points, and Reji could easily extract a few keywords from them.
Prophecy
Academy, Princess.
And the method of sealing
The "prophecy" fully confirmed Reji's earlier speculation. Indeed, the elf race had predicted, through some means, the arrival of himself as the Demon King, and the demon race's return.
The next parts, "Academy" and "Princess," were completely unexpected intelligence.
From the elf's words, it seemed that besides this group, even the princess of the elf race had personally entered the fray?
But they had split into two groups, sending the princess to some academy in the Royal City ahead of time. To study? To further her education?
Of course, what made Reji frown the most now was the last part.
'The method of sealing?'
'Combining the context, it could almost certainly refer to the mysterious magic capable of resealing the demon race back into the chaos rift!?'
If this had been right after Reji had crossed over, he might have hesitated.
'Sorry'
After silently apologizing in his heart to the elf race member who trusted him.
In the dimly lit basement, Reji slightly turned his head and issued a direct order to Shermen, who was acting as a guard beside him.
"Contact Dian and Leo, let them drop everything they are doing. And come to see me, immediately."
"At your command, my king."
