The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 41: Annan: On the way.jpg

"Ghirlandaio" watched calmly as Doreen was escorted away by Ms. Leona, and the tamed frost beast also left with her.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Of course Annan knows...

If Demetri and the others asked Doreen about the origin of this frost beast, they would immediately detect the loophole in the identity of "Ghirlandaio".

——But, it doesn’t matter.

Annan originally had no plan how long this identity would last. He had no intention of using it to deceive Dmitri.

Vasily Manning only had the news slightly delayed for a few days, and did not know that Annan had already left for the cold winter. But he will know sooner or later.

After all, Annan left Noah originally to avoid suspicion. Therefore, this news will not be hidden - if you think about it, you will know that during the election of King Noah, the Duke of Winter, who was close to one of the candidates, lived in his capital.

That's it if Kaifuni doesn't succeed.

If Kafni succeeds in succeeding to the throne, someone will inevitably gossip... saying that Queen Kafni has been controlled by the Duke of Winter and that the Kingdom of Noah has no future.

This may even directly shake the foundation of Noah's power.

Those with ulterior motives also have words at hand that can incite others.

...Of course, even if Annan is not in Noah, he will still do what he has to do in the end. But the level of trouble is different.

When Vasily sends the news back to Winter, Dmitri will immediately guess that "Ghirandaio" is Annan from the many details left by Annan.

And he would soon realize that since Annan returned to China hiding his identity, it meant that he needed such a leather case. Then he will help Annan hide the true identity of "Ghirlandaio".

Instead of worrying about your vest being exposed.

Annan wants to take advantage of the moment to find out some things that Dmitri may not tell Annan:

"...Speaking of which, my brother."

So "Ghirandaio" asked Dmitri Winter beside him in a low voice: "Since werewolves are so dangerous, why doesn't the Principality of Winter simply expel them from their situation?"

The werewolf's talent for madness makes them equivalent to time bombs.

No one wants a werewolf to appear near their children - even if judging from their age and gender, the other person will not go crazy for the time being.

Not to mention a werewolf that could really kill people.

Even if it is a genuine human being...if the other party has ever been to prison or received a sentence. Even if you just steal a piece of bread or a few silver coins, staying with your children will definitely make parents uneasy.

"The solution once and for all is to completely expel the werewolves from the country, right?"

Ghirlandaio said with a half-smile: "Anyway, now...it's actually almost done."

Dmitri glanced at him: "Are you a werewolf sympathizer?"

Ghirlandaio shrugged: "I'm not, I'm not even a winter person, so what right do I have to sympathize. It's just pure curiosity.

"You are the successor of the Duke of Winter, right? Then you should know the answer to this question...can you tell me?"

"There's nothing not to mention. It's not a secret."

Dmitri said slowly.

He sat on the table minding his own business and took out a copper box from his arms. There was supposed to be a row of cigars inside, but now there were only three left.

He took out one of the dark brown cigars and used a cigar cutter to cut an opening into the round end. He unceremoniously picked up a thick match from Ghirlandaio's table, lit it, and carefully turned and smoked the cigar.

The little finger of his left hand tapped the cigar box lightly and glanced at Ghirlandaio.

Seeing that he was unmoved, Dmitri raised his head in surprise:

"...you don't smoke?"

"I'm not old enough to smoke."

Ghirlandaio said with a half-smile, as if he had something to say.

But Dmitri obviously didn't realize what Ghirlandaio meant.

He just clicked his tongue.

Dmitri shook his head and murmured in a low voice: "Everyone is mortal...Why live so meticulously?"

"What did you say?"

"No, it's nothing."

Dmitri denied.

He was silent for a while and then said slowly: "The answer is very simple.

"It's not that we don't want to expel...it's that we can't expel them. Although we haven't thoroughly studied the rules of werewolves going berserk yet. But the general rule is that when they endanger themselves and the lives of the group, there is a chance that werewolves will go berserk. .

"For example, when being seriously injured or when really desperate, a werewolf may go crazy. According to our research, this seems to be some kind of curse inherited from the bloodline... Who knows. Who cares about it? Here."

A curse inherited from blood?

Is it like... Heart of Winter?

Annan was thoughtful.

That’s it.

That’s why the Principality of Winter deliberately left a road open.

Although they discriminated against and suppressed werewolves, and restricted their access to power, they never expelled werewolves from the territory, but gave them a sure way to survive - because once werewolves were really cornered, the power they would unleash , enough to turn the Principality of Winter into a sieve from the inside.

The Kingdom of Noah is watching eagerly from the side, and the Principality of Winter does not dare to use radical means to deal with the werewolf problem.

But you don’t dare—it doesn’t mean you don’t want to.

If possible, they would like the werewolves to leave the Principality of Winter as soon as possible.

Whether you go to the underground or the Theocracy, the status of werewolves there will be relatively higher anyway.

The underground world is sparsely populated and rich in resources. The black-haired werewolves who enter the underground will hardly trigger madness; and in the Theocracy, the status of werewolves is slightly higher than that in the Principality of Winter.

The Theocratic people are also afraid of werewolves. But the difference is that there are some werewolves in the Theocracy who have reached high levels of power and can speak out for their race.

After all, werewolves are born war machines, and they are also people of "blood and lust".

Werewolves cannot give birth to followers of the old grandmother, but they can easily give birth to admirers of the Red Knight and the Cup Girl.

You know... there is a bronze-level extraordinary profession called "Werewolf".

Werewolves do not need any prerequisite professions, nor do they need to learn swordsmanship or stealth abilities. As long as they clear the nightmare as a normal adult, they will have the opportunity to advance to the extraordinary level.

...Moreover, it is easy to embark on the path of depravity.

It can almost be said that he is a born degenerate.

The only two of the twelve righteous gods who can accept demon believers are the Red Knight and the Cup Girl.

The Red Knight even has an apostle legion called the "Slaughter Squad", all of which are composed of recruited demons; and in the ritual of the cup-bearing woman, there is even a high-level ritual that directly transforms mortals into immortal species such as blood demons. ——In Annan's understanding, it can also be called a "vampire".

That's weird.

Since the Principality of Winter, in general, hopes that the werewolves will get out of here.

Why can Bella be accepted... and even qualified to become the Hand of Winter?

Looking at Dmitri's reaction, Annan estimated that Bella had probably gone crazy.

Maybe he even attacked Zhoumu himself... Otherwise, given Dmitri's seemingly serious but actually lazy character, he wouldn't have suddenly developed such a strong dislike for werewolves.

But Annan still couldn't ask Bella's question.

Whether something happens to Bella or nothing happens.

In terms of personality, I am a Noah.

If you directly tell the real name of a member of the Hand of Winter, you may be arrested on the spot. In addition to Doreen, there will be one more...

"Don't even think about running away."

Seeing Ghirlandaio stand up, Dmitri said abruptly: "I have some free time now, just to find that frost beast. I will keep an eye on you until your suspicion is cleared. ."

"Yes, I understand, I understand. I'm going to get some wine... Is it okay to get some wine?"

Anan said with a smile: "Now I understand why you must find that frost beast.

"The research value is not important... Werewolves are not very stable, right?"

"...Tsk."

I always feel that Ghirlandaio’s words are a bit strange.

Dmitri smacked his lips~IndoMTL.com~ and took a puff of his cigar with an unhappy look on his face.

Annan shook his head and stood up to get a few bottles of wine from the wine rack at the door.

He hasn't tried it yet to see if he can use the new function of the teleportation point... so he can't waste it yet. Just stay here obediently, and you won't be able to stay for more than a few days.

I really want to see Dmitri’s expression when he learns the truth.

Annan thought with a smile.

The smile on Annan's lips became even more obvious when he thought of the trio of pioneers who were still fighting on the streets in the underground city, waiting for him to lead them.

It's quite interesting to watch them attack the streets in various ways.

"I didn't mean to coo at you... Look, there's nothing you can do about it."

I really got into trouble, fellow bears.

You guys go to work first, don’t wait for me anymore.jpg
