"I didn't do anything." Sully spread his hands.
Those were a pair of soft-looking young hands.
There are no stiff strings, nor any marks of time carved on it.
Archduke Gabriel's tone became much heavier.
He looked at Viscount Senwen, whose head was stepped on by Egbert, and tapped his cane hard and said, "Why don't you apologize to Lord Sully?"
Sully was successfully stunned by this call.
The viscount who was originally being trampled under Egbert's feet suddenly widened his eyes and said, "He is Lord Sully?!"
"What kind of person do you think can guide the world?" Grand Duke Gabriel's tone was inexplicably sarcastic, and his eyes looked like he was looking at a fool.
In fact, he was just looking at a fool.
"You mean to say that only people who live in hell themselves would look far into the distance at the most likely heaven?"
"Or should I say..." The Viscount coughed as he spoke, and then vomited a large mouthful of blood. However, the hatred that had originally filled his eyes not only completely disappeared, but his eyes also lit up like a light bulb.
"The person that Master Gaudet Foli admires can only be like this."
"And only someone like Lord Suli can make a dark elementalist like a wild dog choose to surrender?"
Suli: …………
………………………………
"No……"
No one cared about the sound Suli made, or even if they heard it, the nobles couldn't control their desire to gossip.
"Look at that face, it's just like the face of God depicted in the books of legend!"
"No wonder the man in white robes was so angry. If I knew Lord Suli's identity, I would be unable to control myself and would have a life-and-death battle with Viscount Senwen if I faced his provocation."
"Me too! The person that Master Godefroi was looking at from afar before his death... He appeared in front of us, but we knew nothing about him."
Suli: “No…”
Mavis looked at the way Sully tried to hold back his words for a long time but could only hold back this one word, and she couldn't help but feel a slight pity in her heart.
That is to say, I feel a little sad for a second.
And Suli's previously suppressed desire to commit social suicide was completely ignited at this moment.
Before, it was because there were too many people. If everyone was like this, Suli could use this excuse to comfort himself.
It's okay, it's no big deal, everyone knows it, there's nothing to be embarrassed about.
After all, as long as he wasn't embarrassed, it was only the world that had problems.
But now it’s different.
The nobility only constitute a very small part of the human race.
Most importantly, when they praise something, they never skimp on their flowery words...
And, sex/fetish.
"I have imagined more than once before what kind of person Master Godefroy admires. Before I officially met you, I had vaguely wondered whether you were as tall as a great man, or as beautiful as the goddess described by the bards."
"Now that I've seen you up close, I suddenly realize that even though you're not physically imposing, you're definitely more beautiful than the goddess the bards described."
Then the person who said this said something that almost made Sully spit out water.
"I don't know if you are willing to spend a night with me. Although you seem young at the moment, I don't mind being on top."
Suli: ………………
Why?!
He tried his best to control his trembling voice and said, "If a book can make you become like this, then what is your self?"
"Of course a book cannot make us what we are now. We just understand that you have stood at a height that we cannot reach and have seen scenery that we cannot see. Then, you are willing to share this scenery with us in the form of words."
"We never see the words in a book, but what the words represent."
"Just like what you are saying now, what is our self... No one has ever asked us what our self is before."
The speaker kept boasting in an exaggerated tone.
Suli couldn't help but raise his finger, but in the end he didn't point at these lunatics whose brains seemed to be filled with a ton of seawater and curse, "If you are sick, take medicine."
Sully now had only one idea: find a place, dig a hole, and put Egbert...
Buried.
but……
Something is wrong.
Something is very wrong.
Even if the Chief Justice promoted the derivative meanings of some of the words in the book written by Egbert, the old man, who had the word justice engraved in his bones, would never easily put him in a position that could easily affect the balance of people's consciousness.
Fairness, to the chief justice, is more than just a literal meaning; in his view, balance also falls within the scope of fairness.
So why does this book still have such seemingly perverse influence?
Sully's way of distracting himself is to think about things from other people's perspectives.
For example, what can pushing him to a high position where he is fanatically worshipped bring to that old man, no... I should say what can it bring to that old man.
Maybe he was planning something.
Using the process of elimination, the first thing to be eliminated is the theory that Sully kept the monster in captivity without letting anyone around him leak it.
Because the cooperation he had discussed with the Chief Justice before was to make this country better, and even if there was a hint, the old man would not think of the cage theory now.
In other words, the unfairness that the old man thinks may be largely the same as the Dark Pope's thoughts.
For example, a dark elementalist should not be hunted down from the moment it is confirmed that he possesses the ability. After all, both the hunted and the hunters seem to have completely ignored justice.
The former forgot that the law could protect him, while the latter disregarded the law and carried out the death penalty privately.
Another question is, if the book's influence continues to grow, to what extent will Suli reach?
The answer is to replace or cover the influence of the Holy See of Light.
Although this takes a long time to ferment.
At this moment, Sully seemed to be split into two people. One side was so embarrassed that he wished he could dig out a room and hide in it, while the other side was coldly watching all the nobles who were eagerly discussing topics related to the book around him.
The look in these people's eyes doesn't look like that of fanatical believers, but more like that of gossipers who can't take their eyes off the gossip.
Unlike Egbert, and unlike any other temporary resident of the inn.
Whether they are chasing after that book or Godfrey, the more essential thing is actually chasing after fashion.
Just like the long-destroyed Tros family, when they existed, they turned their gems into symbols of identity.
Suli is now where the gem was then.
Everyone wants it because it is special and rare.
However, due to the power suppression of Egbert and Mavis, he did not dare to actually implement this idea.
At this time, language can only become the only tool for exerting force.
On the other hand, this group of people still treated him as an object.
Different from what ordinary people think, "What he said does make sense", "There's no harm in listening to it", "These things are really helpful to me".
The nobles admired Gode Buddha and called him Master Gode Buddha. In essence, they were just showing off how much they respected a dead person.
When facing a dead "master", all you need to do is act even more fanatical.
Grand Duke Gabriel had brought the situation to this point with just a few words. Suli thought coldly in his heart that he was afraid that he and the Chief Justice were not on good terms with each other.
To be honest, the party was held here, and the tacit rule that Egbert and Mavis could destroy the place at will was just Sully's unilateral definition.
The organizer of the banquet, Archduke Gabriel, obviously did not think so.
On the other hand, Mavis's previous words would have another meaning.
Grand Duke Gabriel, the host of the banquet, one of the three Grand Dukes of Amicbee——
They are also a noble family that can be destroyed at any time!
"Stop performing meaningless third-rate dramas." Sully's rationality completely suppressed the emotion of social death, and his green eyes looked coldly at everyone present.
"A group that only shows respect to others after knowing their identities will never understand that respecting others is also respecting oneself."
"Cultivation comes from within oneself, nobility comes from the soul, and your undisguised arrogance is just an ugly thing floating on your face."
Sully lowered his head and brushed off the non-existent dust on himself.
This action was to reveal something to Egbert and Mavis beside him.
That is, he didn't want to see any of the nobles in front of him again.
The obligations of a partner are certainly not as great as those of Sully himself, so Egbert wanted to take him away as soon as possible.
Since Lord Suli doesn't want to see ugly things, then ugly things will never enter his eyes again.
What's more, these hypocritical people with stupid brains may not be able to understand the true meaning of the book.
Mavis thought the same thing.
If the child doesn't want to, then you have to let the person who makes him uncomfortable know that you are really annoying.
Mavis, who was able to briefly suppress the Pope of Light before, showed for the first time the posture of a top-level warrior who could fight against thousands of troops alone.
The mixture of light and dark elements has extremely strong destructive power. She only needs to transfer this power through the soles of her feet to the ground, and she can instantly turn the ground strengthened by multiple elements into ruins.
And those nobles who were unable to stand steadily were beaten so badly that they fell into coma before they could even react.
But Mavis always remembered what Sully said: don't kill people where you eat.
To Mavis, this sentence is equivalent to saying that if you kill someone while you are having a meal, then when you eat afterwards, you will uncontrollably think of the dead person.
This affects appetite.
But not killing, at certain times, can be far more horrifying than killing.
Not everyone is like Lan Zhe, who dares to explore various places in the Monster Forest, collect medicinal herbs, and treat top-grade medicinal herbs as if they were commonplace.
In this one-sided siege of one person surrounding many, the seriously injured will deeply understand what it means to be "powerless but possess the power to destroy any noble at any time."
This horror lasts for years.
