1676th "Great Witch"
"Boom..."
In the forest road, the dragon chariot continued to drive deep, making the sound of the wheels resound clearly around.
However, opposite to the sound of the wheels, the voices of the two people sitting in the driver's seat continued to come.
"I said, Rem, what do you like about that guy inside?"
"Ask the question knowingly, Master Fang Li's everything is something that Rem loves deeply."
"Why? Just because that guy is strong?"
"Master Fang Li's greatness is beyond your comprehension, so just continue to be superficial."
"It's so ruthless. You are the only one who can scold me like this and not be torn apart by me."
"Onee-sama can become a special existence is a matter of course."
"...Looks like it's not just the guy inside, I'm surprised by your attachment to Ram."
"Please don't let Rem say it a second time, you are asking knowingly."
"Yes yes yes~~~"
In the driver's seat, Rem and Garfiel just kept arguing, it seemed that they were in a good relationship.
Actually, it was just Garfiel pestering Rem unilaterally, and Rem was very annoying to Garfiel.
In the carriage, Emilia's situation also changed a little.
"Hoo...hoo..."
Lying in Silvia's arms, Emilia's breathing gradually became smoother.
"Looks like he's waking up soon."
Sylvia said so, and lowered her shoulders as if she was relieved.
Fang Li also glanced at Emilia's face, and couldn't help feeling a little relieved.
"For the time being, I have also prepared the holy relic cloth that can heal the spirit."
Joan's voice came from the pendant in front of Silvia, and she lowered it so as not to be heard by Garfiel outside.
"In case,
Let's wrap it around Emilia. "
Hearing this, Silvia nodded, took out a piece of holy relic cloth, wrapped it around Emilia's forehead like a bandage.
At this time, Garfiel's voice also came from the driver's seat.
"That silver-haired half-demon is Lord Emilia whom Roswaal and Ram mentioned?"
Garfiel said so in a voice that was not very interested.
"Really, it's a "hybrid" who took the initiative to run into the barrier, it's really "a blizzard under the cloudy sky". "
The way of speaking is still so inexplicable.
However, everyone at least heard the sarcasm in Garfiel's words.
There is no doubt that it was a satire directed at Emilia.
In this regard, Silvia expressed surprise.
"Isn't this barrier designed to protect demihumans that are not accepted by the world?" Sylvia asked suspiciously, "Why can't you come here?"
Rather, as a silver-haired half-elf rejected by the world, it is a good thing that Emilia can come here, right?
At least, the enchantment here can protect her from being hurt by outsiders.
However, Garfiel's reaction was quite strange.
"Protection?" Garfiel said in a disrespectful manner as if he had been amused, "Stop joking, how could such a ghost thing be used to protect us?"
Garfiel's impolite laugh made everyone look at each other.
Before setting off from the Roswaal Mansion, Frandelica had already said that the people living here were a group of "hybrids" who were not accepted by the world.
The "hybrid" referred to here does not only refer to demihumans.
Elves, giants, ghosts, orcs and other species similar to humans are collectively called demihumans.
Due to the evil deeds of the envious witch, the world treated half-elves differently, and even developed into discrimination against demi-humans as a whole, which led to the outbreak of a large-scale civil war between humans and demi-humans in Lugnica Kingdom fifty years ago— ——"Demihuman War".
After this war lasted for ten years, taking the conclusion of peace as an opportunity, the two sides began to cease fighting, and the current capital gradually began to eliminate discrimination against demihumans.
However, that was at best a discrimination against demihumans.
Because of the evil deeds of the envious witch and the unhealed scars left by the demihuman war, although people in the world gradually accepted demihumans, they continued to maintain this kind of discrimination against the hybrid between humans and demihumans.
Even the demihumans cast disgusted eyes on their compatriots mixed with human blood.
In the end, the hybrid between humans and demihumans naturally evolved into a group of "hybrids" that are not accepted by the world.
In other words, the people living in the "Sanctuary" are not ordinary demihumans, but hybrids between humans and demihumans.
Garfiel was one of them, with about a quarter of demihuman blood in his body.
"You say this "sanctuary" barrier is protecting us and repelling outsiders, right? "
Garfiel said such words with extreme disdain.
"It's really nice to say, the real purpose of this enchantment is not external, but internal."
Yes.
The barrier of the "Sanctuary" is not a barrier to protect the "hybrid", but a prison to imprison the "hybrid".
"This barrier will bounce back the souls of the "hybrids" who pass through the barrier, causing them to lose consciousness and prevent the "hybrids" from leaving the sanctuary, but it will not hinder pure-blooded humans. You say, such a structure How could the world be used to protect us? "
Garfiel said with a sneer.
"Miss Emilia fell into a coma because she came in from the outside, passed through the barrier, and was affected by the result to the soul?"
This is no joke.
You must know that the effect of the enchantment is not to make people stunned, but to bounce back the soul.
Once you want to cross the barrier, the soul will be forced to separate from the body, thus staying in the "sanctuary".
If you come in from the outside, you will never be able to go back outside.
If you want to get out of it, once you force it, you will eventually be reduced to the end of the separation of body and soul.
"Fortunately, Lord Emilia came in from the outside, so as long as you don't go out, the soul will stay in the body."
Garfiel said such words without any compassion.
"However, if you want to go out from here, you won't be able to do it for the rest of your life unless you remove the barrier?"
This is really a big deal.
Especially for Emilia.
"But, why are the hybrids of humans and demihumans imprisoned here?"
Silvia raised the most critical question.
"Is there any purpose for the person who built the barrier?"
The answer to this question is, of course, yes.
"Quite clever, woman."
Garfiel grinned, and his voice became menacing.
Immediately, Garfiel said such words.
"The barrier here is constructed as the experimental site of the creator of this ghostly place named "Sanctuary" by Roswaal, and it is also the place where the creator died and the cemetery is located. "
"The creator's name is Echidna."
"She is one of the witches who was devoured by the envious witch 400 years ago under the name of the great sin of "lust". "
