"She doesn't have the power of the Soul Clan, she doesn't have the speed of the Soul Clan, she won't harm people, and she doesn't eat human flesh and blood - even so, you can't tolerate her?" Su Mingan asked again.
Elras remained silent.
"——So, she would never harm anyone. Even the information about a large number of deaths on Thirteenth Street in the mission report was a lie? Did the mission report say this just to arouse my murderous intent and then let me kill her?" Su Mingan asked.
"...Yes." Elras replied.
"You guys are quite funny." Su Mingan summed it up.
He finally understood why Elras insisted that the Soul Clan existed there even though there was no trace of the Soul Clan on Thirteenth Street.
...Because the Soul Clan is Garder itself.
Even if she would not hurt anyone, or eat human souls, she had to die because her body was transformed by the Soul Clan.
No matter what the nature of her soul is.
Whether or not her mind is human.
…
[Xie Lude, her son is a sacrificed soul hunter, right? Logically, he should have financial assistance. Why is his life so difficult? ]
…
[Thank you, Lude, this is an area that has been cleared. Logically, there shouldn't be any souls here. Why did some of them slip through the net?]
…
Su Mingan understood why Elras had assigned him this task.
Elras wanted to use Jiaerde as an example, and told him after he killed her: Su Lin, you killed a soul clan member who was once a human, but because her body is a soul clan member, you must kill her - this is the case between humans and soul clan members. The difference between races does not lie in the difference in thought, but only in the difference in the flesh.
Elras would not even tell him that she had never harmed anyone, and would only let him think that he had killed a soul who deserved to be killed.
...just because he once expressed his dissatisfaction with racial divisions.
...Just because he once hesitated because of the differences between the two races.
In order to better control his foreign knife, Elras has to use such a cruel and absurd teaching method to make him understand who "deserves to be killed".
Even though she was his kind old neighbor lady, it was no exception.
Such a self-proclaimed righteous soul hunting leader seemed no different from the pure soul clanist like Lucia he had met.
Elras even specially sent a Knight of Light to follow him, hoping to stop him from showing mercy. But unexpectedly, the first person to betray was the Knight of Light who should have enforced the law strictly, making Elras look like a joke.
...Even the Knights of Light do not approve of such killings.
How ridiculous.
"Su Lin, her body is no longer human, and her internal organs are made of Soul Clan stuff." Elras said, "At this critical moment, we need to study the power inside her body. Even if she is a failure, she should be recycled by us."
"I agree with your point of view." Su Mingan said: "So, at this critical moment, as the strongest soul hunter, you should also be recycled. If you can be transformed into a soul clan by the Cloud Church, you may become a better fighting force."
"...Su Lin." Elras glanced at him and said, "You didn't behave like this before. Are you too excited?"
Su Ming paused and calmed down.
There is no denying that the world of Praia is all too real.
To the extent that he even felt empathy for an NPC-like character.
But rational thinking also told him that an S-level mission could not be accomplished by simply watching Garder die.
"So, Elras, what do you want to do now?" He spoke after thinking for a moment.
"Let everything proceed in the proper order." Elras narrowed his eyes: "Xelud should be punished, but since Garde is back and the result is not biased, according to the regulations of the Cloud Church, his punishment can be halved.
As for you, Su Lin, go back to the East District and your room now. I won't pursue your behavior that crosses the line - everything in Praya is made up of proper order, and there is no need for you to be a hero here."
"..."Su Mingan was silent for a moment.
He didn't move, just stood there, with no intention of leaving.
If he retreated here, then everything he had done in the previous round would be wasted. Everything would be the same as the previous round. The mission would not be completed.
He looked towards Elras.
The Soul Hunter leader was standing there looking at him, with a suppressed aura like the deep ocean.
His strength should be comparable to Sevilla.
Normally, Su Mingan would be completely unable to defeat Elras. But...
"To be a hero is to be a hero only if the person involved is not capable enough." Su Mingan said, "...then what if I am capable enough?"
Elras was slightly stunned.
The next moment, a dark figure appeared beside him.
Sevilla, dressed in a black robe with electric light flowing on his body, appeared behind him.
Before he could come to his senses, Sevilla put a hand on the back of his neck and slammed him to the ground.
There was a flash of lightning, and fine silver snakes flowed around his body. Ellas seemed to want to resist, and then a figure appeared beside him.
A white-haired old man wearing a top hat and leaning on a cane slowly emerged in the shadows, and a wrinkled face was smiling at him.
At the same moment when Alcherev appeared, there was a flash of white light, and the two Soul Hunters in charge of the escort suddenly fainted without any warning and fell to the ground.
"...Alcherev, it's you." Elras was pressed to the ground and barely raised his head.
He hadn't expected it at all.
...Two upper soul clans who are incompatible with each other would actually pledge allegiance to the same person.
The funny thing is that ten minutes ago, he regarded that man as his most trusted sword.
His face suddenly darkened: "Su Lin."
Su Mingan looked at him.
Elras's gaze towards him was exceptionally cold at this moment.
"——Su Lin, you gathered these two people together... Do you want to lead the entire Soul Clan camp to formally declare war on Praya?"
