Duke of Grief

Chapter 317: Ashes (below)

After getting a good rest, Grush started to turn around like a fly without a head. ,.

What made him feel powerless was that he didn't find anything. Not only did he not find anything, he also spent a lot of time on the "waves".

Think about it and know that if a person commits a crime and faces a search across the city, how could he commit another crime in the same place?

Now Grosh’s whole body is carried by him. In addition to a set of underwear for changing, there is only a compass, a long sword and an artifact. Water sacs and food are essential items. Without these, he simply cannot survive here.

As a paladin, he spent all his money on the cause related to'justice'. In the eyes of others, he is a madman who is difficult to'communicate'. Because no one wants to talk about marriage with the "Paladin".

Relying on an obsession, Glush swayed in the forest for two or three days, and found no clues or traces, which made him feel very depressed and very happy.

Because once he finds the'clue', it means that someone may have suffered again, and just like the village he saw last time, it may not just be'a few people', but'a village'. massacre.

With this complicated mood, he walked back to the village.

He did not know whether the souls of those villagers had entered the Stygian River or had been taken away by the'slayers', but he was going to apologize to the villagers...

Even if no one entrusted him with anything, he did not owe those villagers anything, but his heart condemned himself-why he was so incompetent!

Grush knew what was wrong with his psychology, because he had never been so kind before, and now he would even condemn himself for not helping others, so he felt that something must have happened to him. problem.

The most likely thing is the power given to him by Carl Coronet. In addition, the justice of the ‘artifact’ has affected him.

Otherwise, he could not become like this.

‘There is a crack in my mind! 'Grush himself also realized that now his will is not as firm as he was before. Now, he seems to be assimilating little by little by the concept of'justice'.

‘This is not what I want...’

What Grush wanted was not'pure justice', but'justice'-all the time he wanted to pursue was'justice', but now he has stood on two seemingly one, but in fact divided The road is on the road, and if he keeps going, one day he will need to make a choice again.

Is ‘justice’ given to people or ‘justice’ given to people?

If it were before, Glush would choose the latter without hesitation, but now, in the face of these two options, he has begun to become hesitant.

With worrying self-blame and painful choices, Grush returned to the burnt out village again. This time, he was surprised to find that someone had come before.

It’s not just ‘one or two’, it’s very likely ‘an army’!

Stepping on the wet ground with a heavy weight, the messy footprints and horseshoe marks were placed in front of Grush, and near the entrance of the village, he also saw several ruts, possibly an adventurer or a businessman , But more likely to be an army.

Has the army been here?

In other words, the royal army may already know the situation here?

At this moment, Glush could not help but breathe a sigh of relief, because he is only a person, no matter how powerful he has now, he is only a person, but if the army knows the situation here, even if it is just to do something like that, they Will also send someone to investigate.

Compared with him, maybe those who come to investigate will not pay too much attention, but they are too many, and maybe they can find some clues that he did not notice.

Grus put the "artifact" in his arms, under the armor of the "chest", his long sword was carried behind his waist, and with his left hand holding the hilt, he walked slowly into the village that had been burned into ruins .

In the village, he found more traces of being rummaged, which made him more at ease.

No matter how slack that army is, it must have noticed the disappearance of the corpse. As long as they noticed, then things will be easier to deal with later.

The dry wind blew the ashes on the ground, and when a gust of wind came across, Grush could not help but sneeze, "Ah... A sneeze!"

Grush sucked his nose and felt the discomfort in his nasal cavity disappeared with this sneeze, and now all that remains is ‘unblocked’.

Looking at the dust from the ground, Grush's lighthearted mood suddenly became heavy again.

The murderer is unknown, even how the murderer killed these innocent villagers... he should not be so relaxed!

Pin all expectations to others? This is not something a paladin would do.

Grush took a deep breath, and then he couldn't help coughing again. The dust and ash in the wind tried to pass through the trachea, but was rejected by the human instinct.

He walked over to the well, looked at the darkened houses around him, sighed, and his eyes were filled with endless sadness.

The paladin, who was pursuing the ‘righteousness’, knelt down on one knee, closed his eyes and silently prayed for the villagers who died—because otherwise, he couldn’t do anything for them.

‘May you—’

At this point, Grush got stuck, and the rest of his prayers were blocked by a "doubt".

Even the corpses have disappeared, what about their souls?

As a once paladin and now a paladin, Grush knew the existence of'cultists' and'necromancers' in books and elders' words. Those damn'evil' would sacrifice their souls to Evil God, or himself used in magic experiments, now he is very suspicious that they may have done this.

Reminiscent of this possibility, Grush could not restrain the burning anger in the'chest' cavity.

boom!

"Damn!"

Grush opened his eyes in anger and punched the ground with a punch, and now he was not fit to continue praying for these dead villagers.

Then he closed his eyes again and took a few deep breaths, but he choked into the throat because of the floating soil and ashes lifted by his fist, and coughed a few times~www.wuxiaspot.com~ cough! "

Grouch stood up, opened his eyes, and looked at the blood-stained ground with sadness.

Why is there war? Why is this happening?

This was not the first time he thought about this question, but every time he could not get a satisfactory answer.

His eyes slipped from the ground to the collapsed house next to it, and Glush was full of anger and difficult to vent, and finally he could only sigh deeply...

"Ugh... eh?"

Grush blinked, squatted down again, and picked up something that looked like a small stone from the ground.

But this does not seem to be a stone...

It's about as long as his half index finger, narrower than his **** together. The whole body is a yellowish "color", but there is a little white spots, one end is uneven, slightly curved, and the other...but it is broken!

this is……

Grush opened his eyes wide and exclaimed: "Bone!"

Although he does not know which part of the body is the bone, but why is there a "bone" here?

After seeing the bone, Grush's heart pounded, and he lowered his head to look at the ground and ashes that had been ignored by him.

‘With one piece, is there more? ’

The paladin's heart suddenly heard such a voice.

He looked at the ashes and the floating soil and suddenly knelt down on his knees, constantly rummaging on the ground despite the dirt...

"Six pieces..."

Grush sat paralyzed on the ground, staring blankly at the sky.

He rummaged through the ashes and finally found six bones.

In other words, the corpses in this village haven't disappeared!

It's all here!

The corpse is right under him-these ashes are the corpses of the dead villagers!
