Absolute Speed ​​of a Certain Anime

Spriggan turned to look at Jiang Li, a friendly smile on his face.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment, then stepped onto the carriage.

"Does this kind of thing happen often in Britain?"

"If not every day, there are basically many cases every month."

Spriggan led Jiang Li to sit down, supporting his arm with his hand and chuckling.

"My Norwich is probably the city in Britain that's closest to pan-human history. Even so, human escapes are still common."

"You didn't find a way to solve it?"

"How can we solve this problem? The whole of Britain is like this, and all the goblin masters are the same. Even if I want to do something personally, it would be a pipe dream to shake such a huge system, isn't it?"

"So, you didn't do anything?"

Jiang Li's gaze went straight to Spriggan.

"You are a human being yourself?"

That sharp look made Spriggan feel as if an arrow had pierced his heart, and his heart stopped beating for a moment.

"...Hehe, Your Highness is truly terrifying. She actually saw through my identity at a glance?"

Spriggan gave a dry laugh.

But his expression remained unchanged.

His identity was seen through as soon as they met. This kind of thing has happened several times before. Both the Queen and Woodworth, the patriarch of the Fang Clan, had seen through his identity long ago.

But he has value, a value that even the Queen would take notice of, so he has been able to rest easy until now. Woodworth tried to kill him several times, but was stopped by the Queen.

"Yes, I am indeed human."

Spriggan admitted it frankly.

"Although I claim to be the second generation of Spriggan, the head of the Fang clan, my real name is Caprice, and I'm the second-in-command of Spriggan & Caprice Ltd.—that was a long time ago."

That's right.

In the fairy kingdom of Britain, where all clan leaders are supposed to be fairies, the chief of the Earth Clan is actually a human!

“Isn’t that just it?”

Jiang Li narrowed his eyes.

His vision was like an X-ray, clearly showing Spriggan's entire body.

"...What does Your Highness mean?"

Spriggan smiled but said nothing.

"How old are you?"

"……148 years old."

"But the humans in this Lostbelt are born with limited abilities and usually don't live past the age of thirty."

Jiang Li closed one eye, a faint smile rising from the corner of his mouth.

"I've heard that the Queen would use the name of 'God's Hiding' to bring back some 'drifters' from Pan-Human History. That's one of the reasons why this Lostbelt is so knowledgeable about and admires Pan-Human History."

"Are you also a 'drifter'?"

Chapter 991: Forgive, Forgive! (33)

2023-06-01

After the end of the Xia War in 2000 BC, the Fairy Kingdom began to vigorously support human culture. For a time, the products of human culture became a trend pursued by the fairies.

However, the imitation of human society only began after AD.

That is, after the queen came to the throne.

According to Bagster, the Queen would occasionally go into hiding and unknowingly transfer some items from pan-human history to the Fairy Kingdom. Those items were called "drifting objects"!

Since then, the concept of human society has emerged in the fairy kingdom.

All of this is done by the Queen to improve the civilization of the Fairy Kingdom!

These "drift objects" held by the Queen are undoubtedly hot commodities among the major clans in the Fairy Kingdom!

For example, the kerosene lamp that is popular nowadays was not actually invented by the humans here, but was extradited from pan-human history by the Queen. It became a trend after it was mass-produced.

And if they are "disappearing", it probably wouldn't be surprising even if a few humans appear among them, right?

Jiang Li guessed that Spriggan was most likely a pan-human being who was involved in the "God's disappearance"!

As for why, the humans in this Lostbelt, whether due to technical reasons or something else, have a lifespan limit of only thirty years!

This is the fundamental reason why there are no middle-aged and elderly people in human pastures!

However, Spriggan, as a human being, has lived to be 148 years old, which is very different from the lifespan of humans in this lossbelt. Jiang Li feels that the possibility of this speculation is as high as %!

If he was a human from pan-human history, or even a magician, then it would be natural for him to live this long!

"That's amazing! I never thought that Your Highness could figure out my entire family background after just one meeting!"

A huge smile spread across Spriggan's face.

He couldn't help but applaud.

"Your Highness has only been in this fairy kingdom for a dozen days, and yet you've already mastered the situation to this degree. I truly admire you. Oh, is this the margin of strength afforded to the strong? If I had been as strong as Your Highness, I wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state..."

"How to say?"

"Just think about it, I was brought into this world by Your Majesty in a daze."

Spriggan shrugged, a cold smile on his face.

"It's a lone human!"

Jiang Li was silent for a moment.

It turned out to be the case.

Lone humans were either imprisoned in human ranches, sold into slavery, or destroyed.

Seeing that he is still alive, it is probably the first two.

"At this point, I no longer want to recall the story of that reckless kid named Nakamura who smuggled himself into England. Ever since arriving in this Lostbelt, even though he was cautious enough as a lone human, he was still captured by slave traders and turned into a slave. He wasn't thrown away until he was thirty, his final days..."

Spriggan pulled the corners of his mouth together with an inexplicable sneer on his face.

The goblins believe that humans only live to be thirty years old.

As his time was running out, he, who had been a slave for more than ten years, was abandoned by his master without hesitation.

This became a turning point in the fate of the slave Nakamura.

After being abandoned by his goblin master, he came to Norwich. Through his knowledge of pan-human history, he quickly became acquainted with the honest and upright chief of the Earth Clan, Spriggan. The two became good friends who could talk about anything, and even founded a limited company called Spriggan & Caprice, using their designs to influence the fashion trends throughout Britain, and became a big shot in the British business world!

Then?

Spriggan is dead.

Nakamura used his name to gain power.

"We are both humans from pan-human history. In this world, we are the only two companions!"

Spriggan's face lit up with a warm smile.

"By the way, do you want to stay in Norwich for a while? Although it's not as prosperous as Gloucester, it's also very prosperous, and the atmosphere is very close to that of a city in pan-human history. You will definitely be very happy!"

His eyes were full of intimacy.

Being a stranger in a foreign land, I never expected to meet a fellow countryman. It really makes me happy.

"No thanks. I'm not interested in a city that's about to be ravaged by a catastrophe."

Jiang Li curled his lips, stood up and prepared to leave.

"Might as well go to Gloucester!"

"That's true. Let's wait until the Queen has dealt with the disaster."

Spriggan came back to his senses and sighed regretfully.

"In that case, let me give you a piece of advice!"

"Be careful of Woodworth! He's been secretly in love with the Queen for a thousand years and is very angry with you and Beryl. He'll definitely attack you if he gets the chance!"

"Don't look at that guy's age, but his strength is much stronger than you can imagine!"

After leaving these words, Spriggan left in a carriage.

Jiang Li didn't take his ride.

He didn't like this Spriggan, no, it should be said that he didn't like the man named Nakamura.

Although he revealed his origins, he concealed something more crucial!

How did the previous Spriggan die?

What about the second generation? Why didn't he show up?

Why did this guy pretend to be the second generation of Spriggan?

How did he disguise himself as a goblin?

In fact, Jiang Li could guess the answer.

The answer is not difficult to guess.

After Nakamura became acquainted with Spriggan, he somehow murdered Spriggan, then transformed himself into him, pretending to be his second generation and taking over the position of clan leader, lord, and company in his own hands!

As for how to avoid the eyes of the goblins, he has been in this goblin country for so many years, he will definitely find a way.

Moreover, before in the meeting hall, when the clan leaders were discussing matters, this guy talked about property and money all the time, without showing any sign of caring about the people.

According to Woodworth, he was blinded by money!

Jiang Li absolutely cannot like such a person!

The reason why he was invited to Norwich was probably because of his strength and status, with the intention of asking him to protect himself.

Even the so-called advice?

Why did Woodworth need to say that he liked Morgan and that he was very capable?

Earlier in the conference room, when Jiang Li took a step forward and the shockwaves shot into Woodworth's body, but there was no reaction at all, Jiang Li already knew how terrifying Woodworth's strength was.

"But I will definitely go to Norwich!"

Watching Spriggan's carriage disappear into the distant avenue, Jiang Li's figure also faded away.

…………

"How dare you run away?"

In the dark basement, a strong smell of blood filled the air.

“Ughh ...

The female goblin held the knife and slowly dismembered the human slave's left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, and third leg.

Listening to the shrill wailing in her ears, a happy smile appeared on the female fairy's face.

Soon, the wailing gradually subsided, and the human slave bled profusely and soon died.

"Huh, the time for pleasure is always so short... I have to go to the human ranch to find some new slaves!"

The female goblin turned her head and looked at the seven or eight corpses on the ground.

Without exception, all of those corpses had their limbs chopped off, and each one died in extreme fear and despair.

"It's time to pray."

The dim sky darkened and was covered by the starry night.

The female fairy knelt down in a pool of blood and prayed devoutly.

"Forgive me, forgive me."
