After hearing the order from Fox, Misty's expression froze.

"What are you going to do?"

Hobert smiled and said, "It's like this, Miss. We have come all the way to this unclaimed land and we have three tasks to do.

The first is to invite you to join the Holy Knights Legion.

Second, hunt down the most heinous fugitive, the witch Hestice.

Third, a junior whom I value very much disappeared during a mission. Her name was Nora. She was supposed to be a member of the [Judge] team, but I heard that she has now become an adventurer.

Since we couldn’t complete the first task, we had no choice but to proceed with the second and third tasks.”

Mis looked at Hobert, who looked kind, and asked, "Are you threatening me, Mr. Legion Commander?"

Hobert said calmly, “The witch Hestis has killed many lords and wealthy businessmen, and has been on our bounty list for a long time.

As for Nora, we originally bought her from the slave traders, so the ownership naturally belongs to us.

How can it be a threat to do our job and take back what belongs to us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the paladins' roars could be heard in unison on the street outside, like a demonstration, or even more like a declaration of war.

Mis poked the ground with his magic wand and said firmly, "Mr. Legion Commander, this is no man's land, not the Holy Kingdom of Veratis."

The next second, two huge dragon heads appeared outside the window of the room, opening their bloody mouths and revealing their sharp fangs.

The sudden enlargement of Prey and Inkolis frightened the paladins so much that they retreated and dared not move forward.

Even the members of the Judge team became alert.

Only Hobert did not panic at all even after hearing the dragon's roars, and never looked back to the window.

"Miss, you should know that this is not a wise choice."

"Mr. Legion Commander, I don't know if this is a wise choice. I only know that this is my choice."

There was no way Miss would allow the Paladins to capture Hestice and Nora.

Hobert stood up and walked out of the house. Before leaving the room, he left a message, "You still have time to consider. I will wait for your final answer outside the city of Rezewitt."

Soon, all the paladins in the city retreated and stationed outside the city.

Hubert deliberately chose the location of the final negotiations outside the city in order to avoid the barrier set up by the goddess, preparing to take coercive measures to force Miss to surrender.

He came to this unowned land with his army with great fanfare, determined to achieve his goal.

And Missy was not going to give in and would never allow Hestice and Nora to be captured.

The four young men with magic eyes in the [Judge] team all have the strength level of human LV5.

Hobert is a LV6 disaster-level magician.

In addition, there are a huge number of paladins, some of whom have a strength level of around LV3.

Once a head-on battle breaks out, there will inevitably be unnecessary casualties.

Miss made a request to both Reginald and Ron.

He quietly took the other members of the [Higanbana] guild on a flying dragon to leave the No Man's Land and return to the city of Sogel in the Kingdom of Firris.

He himself went to the front of the battlefield to attract Hobert's attention.

As long as the Disaster-level magicians do not participate in the battle, the [Judge] team and the Paladins will not be a threat to the members of [Higanbana].

Mis's plan is relatively safe and highly reliable.

After considering it, Reginald agreed, but also made a small request.

It’s best not to reveal the identity of the Demon King.

This requirement is undoubtedly to protect Miss.

After all, once such a sensitive identity is exposed, it will inevitably cause great unrest and troubles will ensue.

Miss nodded in agreement and walked out of the city alone.

He is not being a hero in making such a decision.

But Miss was confident that the Holy Knights would not kill him.

Even if Hobert was angry, he had a backup plan.

Just admit it.

Why not just pretend to agree to Hobert? Once his companions are safe, it will still be time for Miss to escape.

In this case, there is no need to confront it head-on, it is not cost-effective.

Walking out of the golden barrier of Rezevit City, Miss was instantly surrounded by paladins.

Under countless gazes, he slowly walked forward.

There was not only Hobert in front of him, there was also an older magician beside him, as well as all the members of the [Scarlet Coral] Guild.

Shana explained that the old man was the Holy Kingdom's chief court magician, Nobo, who had come specifically to take them back home.

Mis frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.

This Nobo seems to be a disaster-level magician as well.

Hobert found that Miss came alone and smiled thoughtfully.

Then he and Nobo looked at each other, as if they had reached some consensus.

Nobo suddenly floated in the air, and then he attacked Miss for no reason, and every move was fatal.

The sudden attack threw Miss off his feet.

He couldn't have expected such an accident to happen.

We had agreed to negotiate, but without saying a word, he just sentenced himself.

After Miss gave himself the [Levitation], he jumped into the air and asked, "Mr. Legion Commander, what does this mean?"

Hobert smiled and said, "You should ask Mr. Nobo about this. Mr. Nobo only obeys the orders of the kingdom. I can only guarantee that I will not take action myself."

The battle broke out too suddenly, and everyone in [Scarlet Coral] was taken aback.

Shana shouted in the direction of Nobo: "Mr. Nobo, this princess does not allow you to attack Miss!"

Nobo did not stop because of Shana's attempt to stop him. Instead, he said in a tough tone, "I'm sorry, Your Highness Shana. I just received an order from Your Highness Cross. I must obey Your Highness Cross first."

Shana was shocked. She didn't expect that the ruthless brother Wang was also involved in this matter.

Only then did Miss realize that it was Cross, whom he had never met before, who wanted to kill him.

He didn't understand, weren't Cross and the Archbishop in cahoots?

Isn't it the Archbishop's plan to make himself the Demon King?

Now he knows that he has become the "devil", but he still wants to kill.

Isn't this a contradiction?

Suddenly, Miss realized something was wrong. This was most likely a test.

Cross was testing whether he had really become a demon king.

Mis was certain that this must be the case.

If he continues to be tested like this, he will definitely be exposed. LV4 cannot beat LV6.

But at the critical moment of life and death, how could the real devil be unable to defeat a disaster-level magician?
