Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 41 Capturing the Demon
  "Baldur's Gate? Why Baldur's Gate? Are you saying that this non-existent mastermind is still planning Baldur's Gate! Why do you think so..."

"Have you forgotten who came to Eltoril that day?"

Nohir's words were like a bolt of lightning, splitting open his memories that were originally blinded by sadness and anger. His whole body trembled, and then he recalled what happened a few days ago, that is, the day the city fell. All kinds of coincidences and accidents that happened.

"You said there is a mole in the city, and the reason why the mole is now in Baldur's Gate - is it because of this!"

Just a few days ago, the supreme leader of Baldur's Gate, the chief high duke among the four great dukes, Urd Revengard came to visit with a grand envoy.

"And on that day, that is, the day the city fell, the order I received was to go to the outer city to mediate the disputes between the outer city residents due to the arrival of the envoy."

"I escaped with my life, but within a few minutes of Duke Ravengarder entering the inner city, the city fell, and Duke Ravengarder also fell into hell along with the city."

"Nohir, is it because of this? Is it because the timing is too coincidental, so you think the murderer must have other plans for Baldur's Gate?!"

"..."

Seeing that Nohir didn't speak and just nodded silently, Scar's heart trembled suddenly, and then she clenched her fists tightly.

He was frightened by this huge conspiracy. If all this was really premeditated, then the mastermind behind it must be real! And no matter who he is...

They must all be from Eltoril!

"Traitor! Greedy evil beast! I must pull out all the fangs in his mouth! Then stuff them all into his insatiable belly and scrape his intestines to pieces! The blood will flow like a river!"

After realizing this, endless anger suddenly surged up and directly blinded his mind. He turned around and smashed the door with a punch. The emotions he had accumulated in the past few days completely exploded at this moment.

The fact that the lives of tens of thousands of people in the entire city fell into hell because of a conspiracy is even more tragic than accusing the Supreme Observer. If this traitor is really...

Nohill immediately stepped forward and pushed him to the ground. Seeing the current situation, if he didn't stop him, Ska would probably lose control directly. But even though he was already pushed to the ground, he still collapsed and yelled!
  "That damn! The insatiable bastard! He sacrificed tens of thousands of residents of Eltoril and he's still not satisfied! Now he has turned his attention to another city!"

"Damn!!"

"No matter who he is! I will kill him with my own hands!"

He hammered the ground with his iron fist crazily, venting his anger. It took him a long time before he calmed down completely.

"..."

"Sorry...I calmed down."

"Let it go, Nohir."

Seeing that he no longer struggled and had indeed calmed down, Nohir let go of him.

Ska got up from the ground, briefly arranged her instruments, patted the dust on her body, calmed down her mind, and then turned to Nohir and said.

"I have to admit that I was frightened by your reasoning. The changes in my life in the past few days almost knocked me to the ground completely, causing me to lose my previous calmness and calmness."

"And as things stand now, I have to sadly accept this reality."

"..."

He was silent for a moment, then said almost sadly.

"The reasoning you mentioned is very likely to be true."

Nohir didn't speak, but he couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

Ska is not pedantic, and can accept his inference so quickly, which proves that Nohill has not misjudged the person. Sure enough, a person who can lose strength in such a huge change and then quickly regain it, There's definitely something extraordinary about it.

But then, Scar continued.

"However, I will never agree with or believe your accusations against the Supreme Observer."

Scar's words were firm, but his eyes began to flicker.

Maybe his heart has begun to waver, but there is no need to say anything at this time.

Nohir knew where his determination came from, and he also saw the wavering in his heart.

So Nohir didn't say much, just patted him on the shoulder and asked him to go back and rest.

Ska, who originally wanted to say something more, saw Nohir looking like this, and his calm mood suddenly became a little agitated again.

He opened his mouth to say something more, but in the end, he didn't say a word.

He went back.

Looking at Ska who pushed open the dilapidated door and gradually walked away, this originally tall and upright man now looked so downcast.

Nohill was also a little intolerant. Although what he said was true, the truth was too cruel to him. Once he goes to Baldur's Gate with Nohir and discovers that what Nohir said is true, his career as a professional will likely come to an end.

He may very well give up his oath because of this betrayal, or completely retire and stop being a professional, or he may become a Forsworn, an evil warrior and be despised by everyone.

But if these truths are never told to him, the pressure and self-blame of the city's collapse will crush him. He must understand who the real enemy is, or at least understand who the real enemy may be.

Otherwise, when the truth is revealed in a bloody way, Ska may really be as depraved as Nohill feared before.

Nohir's thoughts went back to a few days ago.

Just a few days ago, before Nohill's memory had fully recovered, he was still making a living performing tricks and trapeze in the outer city.

But at that time, Nohill, who was originally performing in the outer city, suddenly saw the flow of people on the main road becoming turbulent. Out of curiosity, he chose to follow the crowd to check, and found that familiar face in the crowd.

Old friend in Baldur's Gate, Will's father, Grand Marshal of the Flamefist Legion, Urd Revengard.

For me at that time, Urd Revengard was a person who was both familiar and unfamiliar. It was precisely because of this faint sense of familiarity that Nohir gave up his plan to perform tricks in the crowd. Instead, he chose to follow the envoys quietly to the inner city.

"It can be said that it was my own curiosity that was the root cause of my almost falling into hell."

"But it is precisely because the information I experienced matches the information I consulted before traveling, that's why I am so sure that the Supreme Observer betrayed everyone."

So everything Nohill said to Scar was the truth.

But the truth is often sharp.

The most likely hypothesis in Nohir's mouth.

This is also the possibility that Ska dares not to accept.

-

Sitting on the bed, Nohir began to reflect on whether he had done the right thing by speaking so bluntly.

Skar Chitrugu.

This paladin who once adhered to the path of dedication for that glorious city, was the most standard moral model in the eyes of the world, and was trusted by the people, his life would have been extremely brilliant and glorious.

"Then the city fell, the people were dispersed, and their faith lost support. Ska, he reminded me of Sevro."

A tiefling paladin who, like Skar, is also a paladin of Eltoril.

"But the difference between Ska and Sevro is that Ska quickly found support. He is now seeking revenge for the city. It can be said that revenge is the only source of motivation and the biggest support for him now."

"..."

"I believe that Scar's mind will not be so fragile. As a paladin who has experienced such a change and can stand up again and declare revenge for the entire city with a vow of revenge, his heart must be stronger than I imagined. Be strong."

Thousands of ruthless blows created an iron wall.

"His loyalty will always be to Eltoril, not to the insidious villain Tavis Craig."

Nohir shook his head, no longer worried about the impact of his words on Scar, but turned his thoughts to this journey to Baldur's Gate.

"In order to make better use of this legendary equipment, maybe I should collect a demon soul for myself before entering hell."

"Then what evil could rival the one behind the fall of Eltoril?"

Yes, Nohill's best target is Tavis Craig.

This original human being is now an evil spirit. This scumbag had completely turned into an evil spirit when he sacrificed a city to Zariel. He became an evil spirit in the true sense, not as an adjective.

Because of this achievement, he was personally promoted by Zariel and turned into an Anzu demon wearing human skin. Although it still maintains a human body in daily life, its shadow already looks like a hell demon, and This means that he has obtained the true form of the devil.

"And my crown of control is invincible when used to deal with evil spirits."

"Although Tavis Craig is a real scumbag, his achievements are famous in hell."

"Perhaps he is not known to ordinary demons in hell, but those truly advanced demons must know what this guy has done. He who sacrificed an entire city to Zariel will definitely be deeply affected by Zariel. Your respect."

"As long as I catch him, both the information in his mind and his body will be available to me."

"This will be of great help during the subsequent trip to hell."
