Chapter 513: 313 Come on, take action! (4.2K, Second Update)

Quinna glared at Herbert, pleading in a low voice, "Please... reconsider!"

This female knight could only be described as miserable at this moment, her body covered in scars and dirt, like a dirty refugee tormented by war.

Yet, at this moment, everyone seemed to see a dazzling light emanating from her.

It was the light of willpower.

No one could ignore the intense willpower radiating from her.

It was—defying authority, protecting the weak at all costs! Regardless of the origin of this frailty!

This was the will of a Legendary Paladin.

In this moment, Quinna vaguely found her legendary path!

If this crisis could be resolved smoothly, there was a high probability she would advance to legendary status in the future.

And just as Quinna’s state was exalted, Herbert

The young man in front spoke.

He asked:

"So, are you... questioning my courage in the face of evil?"

Quinna:!!?

The female knight suddenly fell from her exalted state, her spirit shaking as she panicked and looked at the young man in front of her.

Herbert’s eyes moved slightly, staring at the woman’s panicked eyes, he shook his head slightly, and softly said, "And this, after just witnessing this battle? After I just wiped out His avatar?"

"As a witness to that scene, are you questioning my courage?"

!!!

"I..." Quinna was at a loss for words, realizing her slip, she tightly closed her mouth.

Yes, what was she saying?

When faced with such a formidable existence capable of facing the avatar of an Evil God alone and directly repelling it, was she actually doubting his will?

Doubting the will of a Legendary, even Epic Level Paladin?

Quinna stepped back two steps, heavily knelt on one knee, lowered her head, and said weakly, "I’m sorry, please forgive my misspeaking..."

Herbert lowered his eyes, walked past Quinna, and lightly said, "It’s okay, I forgive your rudeness, but now, please step aside."

The female knight did not continue to obstruct, only dropped her shoulders powerlessly as Herbert passed by, as if all strength had left her body.

She had really tried her best, truly had.

As Herbert walked step by step, the gentle whispers of the Harmonious God echoed in his mind.

["Herbert, do you really need to take action? Perhaps she really doesn’t know?"]

"..."

["He is hiding in her soul, watching your actions, just like seeing you like this."]

["Are you really going to go along with His will? Letting Him manipulate you?"]

"..."

Herbert continued walking, shaking his head slightly, without explaining.

"Hey, do you need me to help you take action?"

Eliza’s words finally made Herbert pause his steps and look back at her.

The Vampire lady pursed her lips, squinting at Herbert’s expression, said quite considerately: "You’re a Paladin, right? Shouldn’t be doing such things, right?"

"If you can’t do it, let me handle it for you!"

Such dirty work should not be done by Herbert.

Eliza wouldn’t kill indiscriminately, but she also doesn’t have much pity for the innocent.

Killing Teresa would make her somewhat uncomfortable, but only uncomfortable, there would be no other emotions.

As long as Herbert was not affected, the Vampire lady simply did not care whether her hands would bear the soul of another innocent.

"Sir Herbert, maybe there’s another way."

Svanni shook her head, softly said, "You don’t have to force yourself to do this, and besides, if you must, you don’t need to do it yourself."

They were bodyguards, here to help Herbert with things inconvenient for him to handle.

Faced with the concerns of the two Monster Girls, Herbert smiled slightly, slowly but firmly shook his head, and softly:

"No, I’ll do it myself."

"This is something I should do, and only I can do it."

Herbert declined the goodwill of Eliza and Svanni, one step at a time, he walked to the front of Teresa, who was already despairingly looking up.

"..."

The girl with dim eyes gazed at Herbert, showing a desolate, bitter smile.

The resigned girl did not escape, only looked at Herbert with a full sense of death, as if trying to engrave the face of her killer into her soul.

The two stared at each other for a while, Teresa was the first to falter, weakly whispered, "I just want to survive, what did I do wrong..."

This sentence made Quinna’s body shudder, clenching her fist tightly and hammering it on the broken stones on the ground.

Eliza’s expression also changed slightly, turning her head with some reluctance. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Yes... she was just a child wanting to survive.

What wrong did she do?

Only Svanni furrowed her brows tightly, staring intently at Herbert’s profile—she did not believe Herbert could be so heartless.

In Svanni’s eyes, Herbert had always been a Paladin with a tough mouth but a soft heart.

For him to be so firm, there must be some hidden reasons.

And just as Svanni had predicted, Herbert sighed slowly in the face of Teresa’s dying words, then... clicked his tongue impatiently.

"Tsk."

He stared at the girl coldly and said, "Have you had enough? How long do you plan to continue with this boring act?"

The young man, without hesitation, raised his sword and thrust it into the girl’s chest, directly piercing her heart.

"Ah—cough cough."

Sizzle!

Herbert pressed down on the sword, unaffected, lowered his head, and met the girl’s pained eyes, speaking slowly:

"God of Sinful Desire, if this is the most tedious trick you can produce, don’t blame me for looking down on you."

In response to his sneer, the girl’s body twisted, and she struggled to raise her hand, pressing her blood-stained fingers against the boy’s face.

"I, I didn’t...I’m not Him!"

"Cough!"

"I just want to survive..."

Before finishing her words, the girl’s arm fell limply, and her head dropped down.

She was going to die.

The vitality inside her was swiftly fading.

Yet just as the soul was about to completely disappear, the girl’s fingers moved, and her body began to shake unnaturally.

"...Poof hahaha! Marvelous, truly marvelous!"

"I never thought you’d actually do it! You were really that ruthless!"

"Ah~ she truly is pitiful."

"Teresa" raised her head, grinned, touched her cheek, and sighed: "Such an innocent and lovely girl, cruelly killed by you."

"If you hadn’t acted, she could have seen the sun outside one more time~"

Since the situation was already exposed, Sinful Desire no longer bothered to hide.

He looked at Herbert trying hard to maintain a calm face, laughing joyfully and asked with satisfaction, "How much longer do you intend to keep pretending? How much longer do you plan to endure?"

"Killing a weakling who can’t even retaliate, Paladin, is this the justice you uphold?"

He indulged in his own version of justice, satisfied as he questioned, "How does it feel to kill an innocent person with your own hands?"

"When you kill others, you can disregard it, considering it a necessary sacrifice to eliminate evil... But what if the person is someone you know?"

"Killing an innocent child who trusts you implicitly, doesn’t it pain you?"

He grinned contently, raising both hands, gently cradling Herbert’s cheeks, and leaned close to his ear to whisper intimately:

"Right now, do you really want to kill me?"

"Come on, kill me, and also... her."

"Hehe~"

At this moment, Sinful Desire descended, even at the cost of abandoning years of planning, forcibly manifesting in a vessel that couldn’t channel much power, with one sole intent.

He did it for nothing else but to thoroughly disgust Herbert!

Aren’t you claiming to represent justice?

Come, prove your justice!

Kill me!

Slay the girl who once cheered for you, who trusted you completely!

Kill her!!!

"Come on, do it!"

"Kill me, no, kill her! Completely kill her—cough!!?"

Sizzle.

Sinful Desire’s triumphant laughter ceased. He released Herbert’s cheeks, slowly retreated, and looked down at the blade that had long since embedded into the heart.

"Poof!"

The blade twisted, infused with Holy Power, and directly shattered the heart!

Confronted with Herbert’s soul-penetrating questioning, the response to the Evil God was resolute and without hesitation.

Hesitate? Unable to strike?

What a joke!

"If I hesitated at this time and let you off, it would be the greatest desecration to her."

Herbert drove the blade in his hand deeper, staring into "Teresa’s" eyes, unwavering, rising resolutely as he declared:

"Rather than let you live wearing her skin, I’d rather grant her release with my own hands."

"This is my choice."

"And it is also her choice."
