The Shepherd's Covenant

During a ritual to summon demons, Aihuas finally recalled memories of his previous life.

This was supposed to be an online game developed and operated by his own company for six years. Now, h...

Chapter 612 Aiwass: Kill them!

While Heleqin was preaching, Tianma walked over obediently and stood behind him.

He placed his hand on Tianma's head and said in a loud voice: "We firmly believe that the cause of the mediators is just! We fight for people other than ourselves, for those who do not know us!

“That is why, if I have to choose between a false life and a true death, I will choose the latter.

"Yes, brothers and sisters. The giants are incredibly powerful and formidable. And behind them stands the Supreme Heaven—the supreme god, the god of infinite power. If we fight to the bitter end, we will all be destroyed by the Supreme Heaven's blow.

"I never lie, but this time is an exception. Yes, I lied.

"I told my wife that this was just an investigation. Once the investigation was over, I would go back and wait for my child to be born. But I knew I couldn't go back.

"—I am a banner! Everyone looks at me, I am the embodiment of 'Mediator'!

"To this day, I have crossed countless battlefields and mediated countless disputes. I come to judge right and wrong, mediate disputes, and stop war and death.

“And now, people look to Alctorus, the kingdom of giants.

"This is a good thing, brothers and sisters. Humans are beginning to question the atrocities of the giants and are looking at our faces! If I retreat and return home at this moment, it means that the elves have chosen cowardice and that justice is hesitant! Then they will also be cowardly and hesitant!

“So I will fight to the end.

"I know that, in the end, we will never be able to rid this island of its evil. But I will never retreat.

"If I retreat here, I will bring war to the Theocracy; and if I apologize for my actions in order to mediate the war, I will be dishonoring the name of justice!

"I will attack, I will invade, I will die! I am responsible for my actions, I will not bring disaster upon anyone. I will walk my own path, be buried here after the battle, and be beheaded after the defeat! But I will fight to the end!

"Friends, brothers and sisters. My fellow believers—listen to me!

"Incomplete justice is compromise! Justice that is a compromise is no different from violence!

"Listen to me! I will leave a clean name here, letting the sword of justice shine brightly, wiped with blood! If anyone ever claims that the mediators are nothing but cowards, you can call out my name!

"Here men have fought bloody battles for those other than themselves—

"I will do my best until I die."

Heleqin said so firmly.

After his speech, there was still silence on the deck.

It’s not that people can’t accept it.

Quite the opposite—everyone's eyes were shining like bonfires.

People looked at Heleqin as if they were looking at a god walking on earth.

Heleqin said nothing, so they obeyed the order and kept quiet.

And after returning to Helechin's body, Aiwass had already realized what had happened from Helechin's previous speech.

——Although Heleqin is still alive...but from a certain perspective, "Heleqin" is already dead.

"Herchin" is not only a person, but also a mark and a symbol.

He is the judge of justice.

If he and his followers were to come here and fight against the injustice of those who commit evil and are powerless to punish them, he would seek justice for the oppressed.

...The "mediators" of this era seem somewhat different from those of Aiwass's era. Their actions are more extreme, and they may even actively resort to violence.

And now, we have reached a critical turning point.

The evil deeds of the giants began to be known and taken seriously. At this time, everyone was watching the attitudes of the "Mediator" and "Herchin".

Although at this time, Heleqin's wife happened to be pregnant...

But he had no choice—he couldn't choose to remain silent at this moment.

Under such expectations, he had no excuse to turn away. Even if his wife was truly pregnant, that wasn't an excuse. But he had to make a statement at this moment, and he couldn't back down.

——And there is no doubt that it is absolutely impossible for Heleqin to defeat the Kingdom of Giants.

His previous mediation was precisely because they held an absolutely dominant position. Compared to races like humans and lizardmen, the elves, with their vast heritage, were undoubtedly considered a "superior race." Just like giants and dragons, they were born powerful.

The question people are questioning at this time is: If the target of Helechin's sanctions is not weaker than him, but a giant as powerful as him, or even more powerful, will he still act as he said?

This is a very reasonable question.

Because what Heleqin pursued was originally too idealistic. If he put it into practice, there would be only two results: failure or death.

And Helechin calmly chose death.

Aiwass didn't know why he made this choice.

Perhaps it was because he was already showing signs of tree-like disease... Even if he retired, he probably wouldn't live long. He didn't want to struggle his whole life only to have it all come to nothing.

It is also possible that Helechin was simply following his own path; or perhaps it was both.

But there is no doubt...Herchin's speech even influenced Aiwass.

Aiwass looked at these followers, sighed and added:

“—and you don’t have to.

"Someone has to live on to tell all this; someone has to remember our death."

As he spoke, Aiwass reached out and took the reins of the Pegasus beside him.

The moment he grasped the reins, he and the Pegasus established a spiritual connection.

The pure white horse with swan wings gleamed in the sun. It bowed its head respectfully, allowing Aiwass to ride on it.

"I'll go ahead and scout the way, brothers and sisters. You can consider who will stay and who will go back. Someone has to leave... to take the final letter back for the other brothers and sisters."

Aiwass said, looking at the elves who were walking towards him with their armor in hand, and waved with a smile: "I will be back later... Let's travel light for now.

“——Let’s go!”

Following Aiwass's command, Pegasus spread its wings.

It walked on the light and flew directly from the ship.

In just a blink of an eye, he flew away from the giant ship.

After flying high in the sky, Aiwass truly realized how big this ship was - if it was used to transport troops, this ship could probably easily transport more than two hundred people.

As soon as Aiwas thought about it, the Pegasus landed after flying far away.

Although this promotion took place during the Lunar Eclipse Ritual, Aiwass actually used it to advance to his Demonologist class. This was a job transfer that transcended the third level of the Path to the fourth.

The only problem was that Aiwass hadn't been through the waiting room, so he had no idea how long the promotion would take.

He didn't know whether the ritual would last for one day or many days, let alone overnight.

Therefore, Aiwass did not choose to strengthen the major sin through the means of "melting cards".

Instead, he directly summoned the Night Demon——

As Aiwass threw out the Night Demon Card, accompanied by dark purple electric light and pitch-black whirlwind, the Night Demon, which gave people a sense of exquisiteness and fragmentation, emerged from the vortex and flew beside Aiwass.

As she spread her wings, the sky suddenly darkened and a scarlet blood moon rose.

Looking up from below, one could see a huge black vortex appearing in the sky, and the blood moon was the "hole" at the center of the vortex.

The blood rain fell like a drizzle - the sticky blood dripped onto Aiwass's body, making Heleqin's originally resolute face look hideous and terrifying.

The aura of fear emanating from the Night Demon startled the Pegasus beneath Aiwass, causing it to lose control and fly off the ground, staggering and about to fall.

At this time, Aiwass, who had entered the ritual through the path of transcendence, had no healing ability at all, and therefore could not use illumination or purification to dispel the fear.

So Aiwass chose to take a different approach.

As the elegant scent of sandalwood and jasmine emanated from Aiwass, a pink-purple outline quickly emerged from the Pegasus' pupils. It stabilized once more, rejoining Aiwass's consciousness.

"My master..."

Night Demon Vignes opened his eyes and uttered a husky, echoing voice: "I heard your previous speech. So, what should I do now?"

Her voice was full of anticipation.

"—murder, of course, Vignes."

Aiwas, riding a Pegasus and flying in the sky, declared like a god: "Kill all the giants you see, kill all the giants within the range of your blood rain, kill all the giants you can kill.

"In my name, all your restrictions are lifted! No need to worry! The time has come to kill. Show me your strength!

"Kill these giants!"

"...Finally, I've finally waited for this day..."

Vignes sighed, tears of blood streaming from his eyes.

The aura around her became increasingly dangerous, while the black energy wrapped around her became increasingly thick and dangerous.

Her voice gradually became hoarse and sharp, with a hint of metallic quality: "I will do my best...my master."

Update completed!

I'm feeling a bit tired, so I'm planning to take a day off on the 15th to rest...
