"... on the contrary, Gaspar... He is very calm now..."

At the top of the tower, the dark haired wizard standing in front of the window whispered softly, and his eyes stared at the distant fire that dyed the night red.

The city guard, the yode chamber of Commerce, the blood order... He took great pains to cut off all Gaspar's wings. The governor Byrne could not have been unaware that he was at the end of his tether.

In this case, he did not choose to escape, but put all his eggs in one basket to raid the unprepared Bain cathedral. What would he do for?

Lauren, with a dignified face, glanced slightly and looked at Asriel, who turned his eyes to him. The same trace of fear could be seen in the scarlet pupils.

Mutated monsters, Holy Blood potions, and the oath Knights pursued by Gaspar... The people behind Gaspar don't need to guess; As a former bishop, Francis's understanding of the mystery behind the Holy Cross Church is unmatched by anyone; In other words, Byrne Cathedral hides some secrets that cannot be known.

There was no doubt that such a move was a suicide for Gaspar, and no one could save him; But he was already desperate, and it wouldn't be surprising how crazy he acted at this time.

Could it be Francis? What does he want to do?!

Holy Cross Church, Byrne Cathedral, relics of evil gods, the female god of war Brunhild, the blood Church... It's hard, isn't it... Lauren's teeth clenched, his clenched hands, his fingers turned white, and even his shoulders trembled slightly.

Looking at Asriel, who was staring at himself, I'm afraid he was thinking the same thing as himself.

Holy Cross, his grandmother's... Better not!

"Charles... Count Charlotte." the black haired wizard who hurriedly changed his mouth turned around and saw the frost faced Countess standing on her side with her sword eyebrows raised.

"What do you want to say?"

"I..."

"If it's the same as last time, I don't have to speak." in the face of the black haired wizard, Charlotte was unusually calm this time: "I'm not the count hiding in the castle, shivering and waiting for the enemy to leave. I'm the Lord of the red blood castle. I will never let others die for me!"

“……”

"Don't forget that my last name is Turin, just like you!"

Loren lost his voice for a moment, and Charlotte with her chest up showed him a provocative look.

"Seeing your hesitation, I'm afraid the enemy is not just Gaspar Vern." the count asked calmly, "are you sure?"

"In the worst case, there is no chance of winning."

"So... Is there a solution?"

"Yes," Lauren said faintly.

"Say!" Charlotte did not hesitate.

"Whatever Gaspar wants to do, he needs time - we must raid the cathedral immediately and at least stop him."

The dark haired wizard said in a deep voice: "but it's also a gamble. It's hard to say whether there are other forces in the city, or whether the raid on the cathedral is just a cover for him, so someone has to sit on the town to guard and search for other forces in the city..."

"Torino Knights --!"

Before Loren finished, Charlotte, with a firm expression, turned and stood with a sword and glanced across the room: "this is the order of the count of red blood castle. Everyone will follow Loren Turin to Bain cathedral and take back the holy land of the Holy Cross from those heretics and thugs!"

"Charles, you take the rest of the patrol and I to the city gate of red blood castle, sweep the whole process one by one from each street, and eliminate all members of the heretical church!"

With a soft sound, the sword edge in the count's hand knocked heavily on the floor under his feet: "do you... Have any objection?!"

"Bang --!"

The voice fell down, and the Knights occupying most of the room pulled out their swords and knelt on one knee: "yes!"

"Then go!"

The countess then turned and left, leaving only the red blood Castle housekeeper who hurried to follow.

It's really... Decisive; Looking at half the room, he looked up at his knights, Lauren smiled bitterly, shook his head, turned his head and looked at the little wizard who always stood aside: "ain, I have one thing to give you, that is..."

"I know."

"Huh?"

"I said... I know - I'll stay here and don't need you to worry about me." although it was an unconvinced tone, the little wizard smiled: "don't always look great and want to protect others - I'm a wizard of vimpar college and don't need others to protect me!"

As she spoke, Ayn handed over her wand, and her blue eyes inadvertently swept by Ariel: "take it, remember not to lose it this time."

"This is..." the stunned black haired wizard looked at the wand in his hand. Although he recognized it at a glance, he was still a little surprised, and his eyes kept sweeping the masterpiece in his hand.

"Just a few changes have been made. Thanks to Isaac, the bastard - strengthened the tenacity of the wand itself, strengthened the card slot and communication function for placing bright silver, and reduced the load of high-level magic spells on mental power, which is about twice as much as the original."

The little wizard couldn't help sighing, but still couldn't hide his pride: "really... It was just an emergency design, and only you fool can use the magic wand as a growth gun!"

No... although the dark haired wizard knows little about alchemy, he knows that it is definitely not a "little" change to do these things.

"... thank you."

"It's really the only saying forever, big fool." Ai Yin holding her shoulder was still sighing, but she couldn't help giggling.

"Please don't worry, Lord Lauren." Ariel corona, who remained silent all the time, suddenly came forward, and her scarlet pupils blinked: "Lord ain and I will stay here and won't leave. You don't need to worry about anything. Just concentrate on facing the enemy."

"In addition, my housekeeper will accompany you... Although he is only a humble servant, he is more or less useful. Please use it."

As she spoke, the girl smiled and looked back at Asriel, who was already twitching at the corners of her mouth. She tilted her head provocatively: "dear Asriel, what's your opinion?"

"Of course not, Miss Ariel corona." the young man forced out a grim smile bowed and saluted with incomparable standard: "it's my lifelong honor to work for your excellency Loren Turin!"

"Really? If some coward refuses now, it's still time to escape."

"Oh, oh, you really think too much."

Ignoring the two bickering teenagers and girls behind him, he raised his magic wand, and the eyes of the expressionless black haired wizard swept one by one from the faces of the knights in front of him, looking at the same expressionless faces.

Under the dark night, the golden red fire flickered outside the window behind him.

The Knights of the red blood Castle didn't know themselves, because they often had to leave the palace. They were even more familiar with Lucien and Ayn than themselves; I know nothing about myself except my last name is Turin.

The black haired wizard himself is the same. He never felt that he had any military talent, let alone much experience in this field - even the only raid he led in the ancient wood forest was with the help of Liya, knew everyone and knew each other.

Therefore, he who knew nothing about them had to lead these knights who knew nothing about him to meet a battle whose future was uncertain and even doomed to failure.

It is said to be a surprise attack, but in fact, Gaspar cannot be unprepared for counterattack; The thugs who occupy the cathedral have absolute geographical advantages and number advantages. No matter how they look, there is little hope... Besides, there are fascists lurking behind them

"Everybody..." the black haired wizard said in a deep voice, "let's go."

The words fell, and the same expressionless Knights raised their swords and followed him, without fear and confusion in their eyes.

For real soldiers, there is never much need to explain.

You just need to tell him where the enemy is.
