Lalith walked beside Reiner, picking her teeth with the tip of her fingernails.
She met the gaze of the two elves in the sky.
The next second, a male elf holding a scimitar swooped down and attacked Lalith.
Reiner quickly deployed a barrier to protect the three people standing at the door.
There was a dull thud as the blade struck the barrier.
Lalith took a half step back, covered her mouth and looked at him in surprise.
After hearing the noise, Aliana ran out from the living room.
Seeing the strange elf, she was surprised at first, but when she saw that the situation was not right, she became anxious and asked: "What happened? Who are you? Why are you bullying Reiner?"
The elf holding the scimitar glanced at her and said his name accurately: "Aliana, daughter of the stargazer Serena, why are you here?"
He didn't know that the invisible Nora had already put a dagger to his neck, and it only took a moment to kill him.
Martina sat at the upper floor window, carrying a greatsword, looking at the few people, ready to fight at any time.
Seeing this, many orc warriors in the tribe also surrounded them with axes.
"I'm out on an adventure. Reiner is my good friend and a good man." Aliana stood in front of Reiner.
The male elf took a half step back and said coldly, "Is he the Reiner who speaks our language? But no matter what, he shouldn't collude with the devil."
Reiner felt that these elves were looking for trouble, so he pulled the limp Aliana behind him and asked her in a firm tone, "What do you mean by colluding with the devil? How did I collude with the devil? You're talking about something very unreasonable."
Lailisi also covered her mouth and said, "Oh, I haven't done anything bad recently. I don't remember provoking you elves."
The male elf looked at her, a hint of surprise flashing between his brows: "You can actually speak our language?"
He glared at Reiner fiercely with sharp eyes and said angrily, "As a human, you not only colluded with the devil, but also taught the devil our holy language! This crime is unforgivable!"

Reiner shook his head: "It's really incomprehensible. Although this girl is a demon, she has basically done nothing bad to you, right?
And language can't be passed on to others? It's a tool for communication, and at most it only has substance. How can there be any distinction between high and low?"
Aliana chimed in: "That's right, my mother can speak multiple languages. I asked her similar questions before, and she answered me the same way.
Furthermore, this demon hasn't done anything bad so far, though she can be a bit mean sometimes... but we can't decide to kill her just because of that."
This month, Reiner interrogated Lelith in detail about all the bad things she had done after escaping from the seal.
Although Lalith is vengeful, she doesn't like to attack other creatures.
She had indeed killed more than a dozen orcs who attacked her in self-defense before, but this had nothing to do with the elves.
At this moment, the male elf holding the scimitar spoke up: "The devil is the embodiment of evil. Just because she doesn't kill people now doesn't mean she won't kill people in the future. Before that, we must completely eliminate this threat."
Reiner waved his hand: "No need, I have already signed a contract with her, she won't kill people casually now."
