Reluctantly suppressing her turbulent emotions, Bonnie whispered: "You...you don't have to do this for me. []"
"How is this possible?" Roger said righteously and solemnly: "How can I let evil happen and not stop it, let alone... this evil is against you!"
Roger's words made Bonnie feel sweet, but she still couldn't let go of the nightmare beast. She hesitated and said: "But, after all, your mount is an evil creature from the abyss of the demon world..."
Roger knew that it was difficult for Bonnie to accept the Nightmare Beast because of her belief. It was not easy for her to bring this up to him so tactfully. If the female knight could not let go of this matter, she would always have such a knot in her heart. Fortunately, Roger
Jay inherited all the knowledge from the Castle Hub and knew the teachings of the Church of the Supreme God very well. After thinking for a while, he quickly figured out how to convince Bonnie.
"As long as you have justice in your heart and do righteous things, you will be protected by me even if you walk in hell." Roger softly read a passage and asked Bonnie: "Do you know this passage?"
This passage comes from the sacred scripture of the Church of the Supreme God. Of course, Bonnie understood it very clearly. She immediately nodded gently and said: "This is what the Supreme God said, and it is recorded in the sacred scripture."
"That's right. The Supreme God has made it very clear that as long as you do things for righteous purposes, you will be protected by him. As for the tools and methods used, he doesn't care at all." Roger said.
He clapped his hands and said: "Although the nightmare beast is an evil creature, as long as I ride it to do good things, the Supreme God will not only not blame me, but will also praise me."
"Is that so?" What Roger said was so plausible that Bonnie couldn't help but ask sideways. In fact, this was because the female knight hoped in her heart that Roger would not be punished by the Supreme God, so she did so.
He looked so hesitant. If it had been anyone else, Bonnie would have shouted "Here's nonsense" and then slashed away with a sword.
"That's absolutely true." Roger continued seriously: "Just like weapons, bad people use weapons to destroy justice, and good people use weapons to maintain justice. So what determines whether a person is evil is not the means and tools he uses, but the means and tools he uses to judge whether he is evil or not.
I want his heart!"
Roger had been exposed to similar sophistry before on Earth, and it was more than enough to convince Bonnie at this time. The female knight lowered her head and thought for a while, then smiled at him and said: "What you said does make sense.
I will keep this matter a secret for you."
Knowing that Bonnie has a strong personality, since she said so, she would not tell anyone else about this matter, and Roger was relieved. But just as Roger breathed a sigh of relief, Bonnie suddenly stared at him with stern eyes and said: "Before
When the drug was taking effect, why did you refuse my request? Was it... that you didn't want to have sex with me because you thought I wasn't pretty enough?"
After the most worrying problem was solved, Bonnie immediately thought of Roger's too "calm" behavior just now, and couldn't help but worry about whether she was unattractive to him. Although Bonnie was strong and courageous, she was still a human being after all.
Girls are naturally very nervous about this kind of thing. She is also straight-tempered, and she immediately asked what came to her mind without concealing it.
"We didn't have time to start. Who knew the effect of the medicine would wear off so quickly!" Bonnie's words brought back Roger's sadness again, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. But he also knew that he absolutely couldn't do it in this situation.
To be honest, he quickly replied with a sincere face: "Who said you are not beautiful enough, you are either blind or stupid, how could I not fall in love with you? It's just... my sense of justice does not allow me to take advantage of others' danger. If I were really
If I do that, I will feel guilty for the rest of my life!"
Roger's answer made Bonnie very satisfied, and her sharp eyes became gentle. However, the female knight has always been strong, and she is really not used to looking at people tenderly like this, even if the other person is Roger, whom she likes very much. So.
Bonnie quickly returned to her usual heroic demeanor, stood up and said to Roger: "That's it for today. We will continue special training after school tomorrow. Go home!"
After saying this, Bonnie didn't wait for Roger to answer, and walked out of the classroom with her strong legs. However, when she reached the door, her steps slowed down and she whispered: "Be careful on the road!"
"Ah?" He was surprised by the gentleness shown by the female knight inadvertently. Before Roger could answer, Bonnie had already walked out without thinking. Alone in the empty classroom, Roger thought about what happened before.
Everything that happened and the subtle change in the female knight's attitude towards her, she couldn't help but chuckled: "Hehe... there's a way to look like that!"
The next day Roger went to class at the Knight School as if nothing had happened. Bonnie taught the students how to practice swordsmanship as unsmilingly as before. Nothing seemed to have changed. However, Roger found that the female swordsmanship teacher was looking at him too much.
It has a somewhat special meaning, which only the two parties involved can feel.
Of course, a group of aristocratic children, including Trulli and Stuka, did not come to school that day. However, these students were a group of people who did whatever they wanted in school, and they often skipped school before, so they did not cause any concern at first.
Notice.
It wasn't until the afternoon of that day that the atmosphere in the school became completely different from usual. A large group of security personnel suddenly entered the school, and even the surrounding area of the school was guarded. Even the Supervisory Yuan sent a large group of troops and quickly dispersed.
Go to various classrooms and ask teachers and students to stop classes, and even prohibit everyone from talking to each other.
When the agents of the Overwatch Council entered Roger's classroom, it happened to be the time when Bonnie was giving everyone a swordsmanship lesson. As soon as several agents came in as if they were facing an enemy, Roger exchanged with the female knight without leaving any trace.
With a glance, both of them knew clearly that what happened behind the school was finally discovered.
Because the place where the deceased last appeared was the Knight School, it became the focus of the investigation. All teachers and students were questioned in detail by the Overwatch Council spies. However, Roger and Bonnie, who knew about it, were of course tight-lipped, while others were
As soon as it became known, the Supervisory Council conducted a vigorous investigation in the school for several days, but found nothing.
The spies quickly evacuated, just as suddenly as they came. However, this incident left a lot of aftermath in the Knight School. Many students were secretly talking about it, making it the most popular incident in the Knight School in recent years.
Sensational event.
In fact, this incident not only shocked the entire capital, but even the aristocratic circles across the country. Nine aristocratic children, including the nephew of the Minister of Military Affairs, Marquis Vattel, plus an ordinary student of the Knight School were killed at the same time. This
It was a major event that shocked the whole country.
What is even more shocking is that the corpses of all the victims were mutilated. Some corpses could only be identified by the clothes they wore and certain characteristics on their bodies. Where the corpses were found, there was also a corpse-eating insect and many
The footprints of the nightmare beast, all point to the same possibility. This matter is probably done by undead creatures disguised as humans.
