The knight in the abyss

Chapter 142 Lady Out of Favor
"I am." Lancelot returned a knight salute, "Good afternoon, Ms. Out of Favor. Is there anything we can do for you?"

"I do have a very urgent and dangerous mission." Favor nodded, and glanced at the crowd who followed Lancelot, "Are these your partners?"

"Yes." Lancelot noticed that her eyes stayed on Ekmon for a while, "This skull is called Ekmon, and it is also our companion."

"Hello." The skull bowed without a body, "You seem to know me? I'm very sorry, I lost my memory, otherwise I would never forget a beauty like you."

"No, but I have a friend who is very similar to you." The lady who fell out of favor smiled softly, "I hope you can find your memory as soon as possible. A long time ago, I also walked with a person who was very important to me. on a journey to find his past."

"If you are willing, we are very happy to hear this story." Facing this succubus, Lancelot couldn't help using a very polite tone, "You seem to be different from all the succubi we have seen before... Same. Excuse my curiosity, but would you like to explain what falling out of favor means? It sounds more like an adjective than a name."

"I can understand that you have a lot of questions about me. The first reaction of anyone seeing me is the same." The succubus smiled again, "I have been to many places in the multiverse, and finally decided that my people had passed away. I live a time-wasting, meaningless life. I have fallen from my race, and some say it is an upliftment, but I think the fall feels more accurate. That’s where the name Fall from Grace comes from.”

Lancelot was greatly shocked by what the succubus said before him, but he realized that this was actually a very private topic, and it would be very rude to continue talking about it.So he nodded and said:

"Thank you for your answer, ma'am. You mentioned a commission?"

"Yes, that's exactly why I came here." The Lady Out of Favor nodded, "Before that, I have to ask a few questions to determine whether you are worthy of entrustment."

"Understandable, you have answered my question very generously, so please ask."

"There is no fixed answer to the first question, but I would like to hear from each of you. What can change the very nature of a person?"

"Love." Aramir was the first to say firmly.

"Knowledge." Undoubtedly, this was the answer from Karaline.

"I think it's work." Brutal hugged his shoulders.

"For me, it's memory." Ekmon looked a little sad, "If I didn't lose my memory, maybe I would be a different person."

"Uh, I don't know." Cora was a little embarrassed, "Maybe it's food?"

"I believe that there are many things that can change the nature of a person." Lancelot shrugged, "Everyone's situation is different, it depends on us."

"A very wonderful answer." The lady who fell out of favor nodded, "The second question can only be answered by you, Commander Lancelot. What kind of soul do you think is worth saving?"

"I've never thought about this issue." Lancelot admitted, "If I had to choose, of course it would be those kind souls, at least those souls who sincerely decided not to associate with evil anymore."

"Even this soul that needs to be saved..." Out of Favor paused slightly, "Is it a demon?"

"Without a doubt." Lancelot nodded firmly.

"I can tell that when you said this, you were actually thinking of someone." The lady who fell out of favor showed a considerate smile. "The last question, what is the strongest enemy you have ever defeated? Please don't exaggerate your achievements, I don't want you to die."

"We once killed a demonic demon. But Tijana said that the demonic essence should be preserved in that demonic essence, so she is likely to be revived elsewhere." Lancelow paused, and decided not to mention the demons. "And I can assure you, we're stronger than we were when we defeated the Legilim."

"An exorcist?" Falling out of favor, he lowered his head and considered for a while, "To be honest, it might be a bit reluctant, but I'm afraid I won't have time to find someone else."

"What's the specific content of the mission?" Lancelow asked curiously. He had already heard that this was probably a rescue operation, and the rescued object was probably a special demon like the lady who fell out of favor in front of him.

"The following content, please be sure to keep it secret." The expression of falling out of favor became very serious, "Has any of you heard of the name Elotesia?"

"I think I heard my dad mention it," Brutal said, frowning, "but I can't think of anything about the name at all. Maybe I should pay more attention to it when Dad is in class."

"Most tanar'ri hate me very much for my 'corruption,' but they hate Elotesia ten times more than they hate me." Out of Favor looks struggling to find the right words," she said more than I'm going to be more... extreme. After leaving the evil path, she chose to become a paladin."

"This...how is this possible?" Karaline looked shocked, and what he said out of favor went against everything he knew about demons.

"What made her leave the evil path?" Lancelot was more concerned about this, "What changed her essence?"

"For Elotesia, it is the power of love." The lady who fell out of favor smiled at Sune's priest, "When she was on the main material plane, she fell in love with a beautiful angel. Although her nature made her She resisted the emotion for a long time, but finally she confessed her heart to the angel."

"The angel saw an opportunity, a chance to redeem the demon. His good nature made him feel happy when he helped others. Not to mention, who could say no to a beautiful and sincere succubus?" says At this point, the lady who fell out of favor showed a smile again, as if implying something.

"And then?" Cora asked impatiently, "Did they live happily ever after?"

"Redemption sometimes happens in an instant, but more often it is years of painful effort. As a demon, she has to fight her own evil nature every moment. Although the process is very painful, she finally learned from the past. Helping others instead of persecuting them gives me satisfaction and happiness." The look of falling out of favor was a little sad, "she also understood how many mistakes she had made, and made up for it as much as possible. With the help of her angel lover, she put what she had done The master, a Balor, was completely expelled from the main material plane. She won the status of a paladin and achieved a precarious redemption."

"But while she was redeemed, she also got an eternal enemy. Although her former master can no longer enter the main material plane, it still has countless evil minions to drive." The eyes of the lady who fell out of favor Dim, "Elotesia chose to stay on the Prime Material Plane to help fight evil. Although she survived many assassinations, the latest plot against her succeeded. The succubus paladin was killed, And her angel lover was seriously injured."
