Arthur had thought about what would happen if he took Lorenzo to see Queen Victoria, but among all his expectations, he had never thought that Lorenzo would show his anger so directly.
The power of the demon hunter was revealed, brutality and fear, as if there was some kind of monster inside Lorenzo's body, roaring softly, bursting this mortal body bit by bit, and from the broken cracks, one could clearly see the surging darkness.
Arthur's first reaction was to stop Lorenzo. Although there was a huge gap in strength between the two, this was not a reason for Arthur to be afraid. Just as he was about to call for the royal guards, the queen raised her hand and signaled Arthur to stop.
It's useless. Neither the Royal Guards nor Arthur are useful in this situation. Even if the Sin Armors are in this palace, they cannot reverse the situation in the slightest.
Lorenzo has enough confidence in his own strength. After taking back the power Gabriel, he has realized his own differences. Under these events, he is becoming more and more like his mortal enemy.
The being called Lawrence.
Correspondingly, he also possesses enough strength to support his arrogance.
"Don't worry, Arthur, I'm not dead yet, am I?"
There was no trace of fear in the queen's voice. She still had that calm smile on her face, as if she only had this expression.
"Even if I die, let me finish answering Mr. Holmes' questions first."
Lorenzo looked at her expressionlessly, waiting for an answer that would satisfy him.
"In fact, you won't believe anything about ideals and morality. After all, you've seen too much of the despicable nature of human beings, so it's better to talk about something more realistic."
Blood flowed from the sharp iron armor. Under the influence of the king's curse, her body was far more fragile than Lorenzo had imagined. In a blink of an eye, the blood dyed her clothes red.
Arthur on the side said nothing. He respected the queen's decision, but he was also angry and stared at Lorenzo.
"Mr. Holmes, you know, war is coming."
The Queen said so.
Looking at Lorenzo, the Queen continued with a smile.
"In the final analysis, what is more terrifying than demons is us humans ourselves. You are too immersed in the fight between demons and monsters, but you have neglected us humans ourselves."
"What war?"
"The Second Glorious War."
As Queen Victoria, the supreme ruler of the entire Invervig, she is the person who knows the world situation best, and she can also anticipate the next threat.
"Demons exist in the world. Whether it is Invervig or Gaulnalo, there are demons. Our recent intelligence shows that Gaulnalo has established an organization to fight against demons, and has also secretly joined forces with Leiber to jointly open an industrial zone."
"so what?"
Faced with Lorenzo's question, the queen couldn't help laughing out loud. She had no fear of death, as if she knew very well that Lorenzo would not kill her.
"Mr. Holmes, you are an excellent warrior and an expert killer, but you are not a smart politician. Just as you said, under the influence of demons, we in Yngverg may degenerate into evil dragons. What about other groups and countries that possess demonic power?"
