Devil [GL]
Chapter 21
That night, after Metvia finished speaking, she directly called the servants to drive Bai Wanwan out of her house.
At the same time, those servants also threw her a rare and expensive storage ring, which contained money that she would never use up in her lifetime, as well as keys to many houses.
"These houses were prepared by Ms. Percival herself, and they do not belong to Percival. If Ms. Percival loses power, they will not be confiscated by the empire."
Seeing her dull face, the servant explained softly.
Bai Wanwan nodded, and accepted these things, but she didn't feel the slightest joy in her heart.
She has never minded things like "not treating her sincerely".
She is the reincarnation of the Demon God Eater, and the former owner of her body even set fire to kill Metvia. Isn't it natural for Metvia to be wary of herself?
Moreover, money and houses are not what she wants most.
She just wants to... be with Miss all the time.
It would be great if she was strong enough to make Miss feel at ease.
If she was strong enough, the young lady wouldn't send her away just because she was worried about her.
Thinking of Metvia's dark green eyes and her helpless and sad expression, Bai Wanwan's desire for power became stronger again.
She sighed, lowered her head, and began to flip through the keys.
Bai Wanwan chose a house in the imperial capital from the houses Metvia gave her, and finally decided to live in this house.
She selfishly wanted to stay here for a while, to see if she could find a chance to help a group of Metvia, and she might have a chance to see Metvia again one day.
She hasn't even told Metvia her real name yet...
If there is a chance to meet again, she must tell the lady her name, and tell her that her name is Bai Wanwan, not Iris.
After tidying up her mood, Bai Wanwan lived in the imperial capital for a whole month.
During this month, following the conclusion of the Yihe Conference with the Demon Race, the situation in the main cities has undergone tremendous changes, and many shocking events have taken place.
The first to bear the brunt is the matter of Metvia.
Half a month ago, someone found a large amount of demonic energy from Metvia's house, as well as two tablets enshrining the demon god.
The whistleblower was a maid who had worked in the Percival family for a period of time. According to her, her friend Kathy had discovered the matter and privately disclosed it to her after discovering it.However, Casey also suffered from Miss Percival's poisonous hands because of this, and passed away at a young age.
The black bag that the devil handed to Casey that night was originally to frame Metvia.
And because Bai Wanwan used to practice demonic skills in the study room before, and filled Metvia's study room with demon energy, so in so many days, Metvia, who has always been keen, did not find the two demon tablets .
No, maybe she found out, but those nobles couldn't wait to accuse her and would never allow her to be innocent.Even if there was nothing in her study room, they could still fabricate a "Devil God Tablet" out of thin air.
Once this kind of treason was exposed, it immediately caused an upsurge of controversy among the people of the empire.
The First Tribunal of the Empire announced that it would conduct the final trial on the criminal Metvia Percival who had deprived the nobles of their rights in three days.
At that time, two hundred aristocratic judges will vote together to decide the punishment for Metvia Percival. If there is no accident, she will be forcibly imprisoned and sent to the Demon Realm. Eventually, as one of the requirements of the Treaty of Peace, she will fall into the The hand of the devil.
How sad it would be for Metvia to end up like this.
The moment she heard the news, Bai Wanwan couldn't help but take a few steps back, feeling the pain was unbearable, her mind was overwhelmed, and she was so uncomfortable that she could hardly breathe.
Her pair of black eyes were gloomy, a mass of devilish energy loomed around her body, and countless dark and desperate emotions intertwined in her heart.
These days, she has been used to losing control of these emotions from time to time.
When she finally managed to suppress her inner emotions and let her consciousness become clear, an extremely crazy idea suddenly popped up in her heart:
She wanted to save Metvia.
Bai Wanwan stood up, and various ideas flashed in her mind one after another. She combined what she could do so far, and considered various situations. In the end, a bold but opportunistic plan was gradually adopted by her. plan out-
The First Trial Court of the Empire has an unwritten rule, that is, once a major case is encountered and two hundred judges are required to appear, in order to demonstrate the importance of the court, they will choose to be in the open air, where countless civilians can watch place for trial.
Since it is an open-air place, it is easier to cause a sensation.
Once the surrounding people became agitated and crowded around in a panic, the scene would inevitably be difficult to control. Most of the power of the army and knights would be used to protect the nobles and resist the people.
At that time, it will be much easier for Bai Wanwan to break through many obstacles, defeat the knights around the trial seat, and rescue Metvia.
But in this way, there are still many hidden dangers. For example, the strength of those knights is much higher than hers, and only one knight can directly knock her down.
Even if Bai Wanwan could sneak into the trial court in an instant and run to the young lady, he might not be able to take her away.
How to do this?
Thinking of this, Bai Wanwan felt extremely anxious.
Without much hesitation, she decided to go out and ask the nearby residents to find out the specific location of the trial site, and planned to go there to check.
These days, in order to get any news about Metvia in time, she has already established a good relationship with the nearby residents, especially the three aunts and four wives who like to gossip.
Those women have always been the group of people who receive news the fastest. Bai Wanwan has a sweet mouth and often sends them some sauces and fruits. With the addition of these small favors, she was quickly accepted by the aunts.
The first moment Bai Wanwan thought about saving people, he thought of them, and wanted to ask them some information.
Only this time, before she reached the corner where they usually chatted, she heard the sound of laughter from their side.
"Ha, I was there at the time and saw it with my own eyes..."
"I really didn't expect such a coward to come out of the general's family..."
Seeing her coming, those women greeted her very skillfully, and asked her to sit down and eat melon seeds with a smile.
"Iris, you came just in time, we just watched a great show," one of the women said kindly, "You don't know, the young master of the Post family who has been living in the frontier to fight against the enemy, actually He is a little boy who is greedy for life and afraid of death."
"Master Post?" Bai Wanwan was slightly taken aback and asked in surprise.
Bruno Post, this is still her acquaintance.
It's just that since the Post family expressed their indifference to Metvia's matter a month ago, she no longer wants to pay attention to this family.
The perfidious, she loathed them terribly.
"Yeah, you know, that lady from Percival's family will be executed in three days." They had obvious disdain on their faces, and they didn't stop eating melon seeds at all, "lead the trial court What a glorious thing this is, the young master Post is so cowardly, saying that he is afraid of the demons and is unwilling to attend."
As they talked, they couldn't help laughing when they thought of Master Bruno's frightened look on the street just now.
"...You said that the Knights of the Trial Court are managed by the Post family?"
Bai Wanwan listened, suddenly her heart moved, and she asked loudly.
She thought of the days when she was with Bruno, and knew that he was definitely not as afraid of the demons as these women said.
It was certainly not because of the so-called "fear of the demons" that he was able to risk such face to disobey the general's orders, give up his glory, and not go to court.
So, in his heart, maybe he also felt a lot of guilt toward Metvia?
"That's right, the Knights of the Trial Court have always been selected from the army of General Post," one of the women shouted first, "My cousin's son is a soldier under General Post. You know, the treatment there is really good!"
Her small eyes were smiling, and she looked at Bai Wanwan pointedly, as if she was waiting for Bai Wanwan's adoring eyes.
"Okay, I see, thank you!"
Bai Wanwan stood up abruptly, thanked her hastily, and ran out quickly.
Her heart beat faster and faster, and her steps were so cheerful that she almost jumped up.
If her guess is correct, then there is hope for rescuing the young lady!
At the same time, those servants also threw her a rare and expensive storage ring, which contained money that she would never use up in her lifetime, as well as keys to many houses.
