Tailbone used the Nephilic Judge's power to transform into a middle-aged male spellcaster in a long robe. He walked into the tavern.
He went straight to the bar and sat down. He asked a waiter for a mug of the most common ale.
"Presiding Judge, what should we do next? Spread the Chaos Potion? "
Before Tailbone could even take a sip of his ale at the bar counter, the other Nephilic Judges inquired about his next order through the special communication method between the Nephilic Judges.
"Let me ask the old man outside."
Tailbone immediately stopped the young Nephilic Judges from thinking too rashly.
As one of the two Presiding Judges participating in the Chaos Demon Crusade, the heavy responsibility of beheading the Chaos Demon fell on his shoulders.
The other Presiding Judge, known as' Chain ', stayed outside the tavern to control the situation.
"Stop using the Chaos Potion. The spellcasters around you aren't simple-minded dwarves. Many of them are troublesome to deal with."
"Another troublesome bigshot, and … a bunch of them."
Tailbone grumbled. He gulped down the ale in his mug and scanned the surroundings.
He found it hard to imagine that a tavern like this would attract so many spellcasters. This place was supposed to be filled with a bunch of scumbags, thieves, murderers, and a bunch of brainless dwarves.
That was how a tavern should look like.
However, this tavern named Hearthstone was different. More than half of the customers in the tavern were spellcasters. More importantly, apart from being spellcasters, the customers were from clans and factions.
"What on earth attracted all these big shots to this little tavern? Shouldn't they be holding a ball in the grand hall? "
Tailbone put down the mug. Although the ale was of high quality, it did not taste good.
"Find the demon!"
The Presiding Judge who was commanding outside the tavern did not like to listen to his colleagues' complaints.
There were a total of eight Nephilic Judges who followed Tailbone into the Hearthstone Tavern. The remaining four hid around the Hearthstone Tavern.
If any of the demons on the list tried to escape, the four Nephilic Judges would react immediately.
"Presiding Judge, we found the Chaos Demon," one of the Nephilic Judges spoke.
One of the judges spoke. They were waiting for the next order from the two judges.
According to the original plan, after confirming the location of the Chaos Devil, the judges would spread a drug called 'Chaos Mixture' in the tavern.
The effect of the agent is to put anyone who touches it into a delirious state.
This mixture was enough for the drunken dwarves to punch each other in the face, and the Nephilic Judge could take this opportunity to kill the Chaos Demon.
But the problem was that there were more than just dwarves in the tavern!
While Tailbone was thinking about what to do next, an ethereal song suddenly rang in the tavern.
It was a voice that could be described as crystal clear. It was comparable to the singing of a church choir. It was a voice that could wash away the distracting thoughts in one's heart.
Unfortunately, the song that echoed in the tavern did not disperse the distracting thoughts in Tailbone's heart. Instead, his forehead began to ache faintly.
Anger, an indescribable anger kept spreading in his mind.
This was not his anger, but … the anger of a certain creature that had given him power.
Those crazy whispers began to emerge in Tailbone's ears. After so many years, Tailbone could not understand the meaning of these whispers.
But today … he understood one of the meanings. It was an extremely clear and undeniable order.
"Kill her."
… …
Messiah walked into the Hearthstone Tavern. The bustle in the tavern today was beyond her imagination.
The sale of the new card packs attracted many Hearthstone players, especially the spellcasters who were active during the day. They probably stayed up all night to queue up to open the packs.
Before entering the tavern, Messiah kept reminding herself that she was here for work.
But the moment Messiah entered the tavern, she was infected by the atmosphere …
"Knight Messiah! You're finally here! Quick, help me open a pack! "
A few spellcasters who were familiar with Missey recognized the female knight and invited her to join them. They wanted to see how lucky the female knight was today.
"My apologies, Sir Lorian … Today is not a good day."
Messiah resisted the urge to accept the invitation. After verbally rejecting, she immediately walked deeper into the tavern.
She wanted to find the owner of the tavern, the Chaos Demon, and cooperate with the Nephilic Judge to purify the Chaos Demon.
As Messiah weaved through the crowd, she accidentally bumped into someone. The person took a few steps back and almost fell. Messiah quickly grabbed her hand.
This was a typical encounter between a knight and a young lady. The only difference was that the knight was also a female.
"Are you alright? Miss Taylin … "
Messiah recognized the young lady in front of her. She was the Frost Elf Taylin.
Every Hearthstone Tavern player more or less knew this young Elf lady. Her singing added a lot of comfort to the atmosphere in the Hearthstone Tavern.
Messiah also liked Taylin's singing. The Frost Elf's singing was like the hymns of a church choir. Some of the songs were even more passionate than the church's hymns.
If Taylin's singing was played on the battlefield, Messiah felt that it would increase the morale of the Paladins.
"Messiah, that's great. You can usually find Mister Josiah in the tavern. Now you know where Mister Josiah is?"
After the expansion of the tavern, this Frost Elf lady would often not be able to find him. Not to mention, the situation in the tavern could be described as cramped. Some places did not even have space to stand.
"Of course …"
Messiah was a Paladin. The Paladin was specially trained to fight against the Chaos Demon. Their ability to track the Chaos Demon was naturally top-notch.
However, when Messiah answered Taylin's question, he felt slightly conflicted. Once she found the Chaos Demon, it would be equivalent to announcing that the Chaos Demon was only a few steps away from the guillotine.
Taylin did not notice the tense atmosphere in the tavern. It was just that Josiah had told her to hide in her room and not to come to the hall.
However, in that instant, she had broken her promise with Josh. The reason for that was because the World Tree had been acting strangely a few minutes ago.
"Miss Taylin, there's … a tree growing on your head?"
Messiah also noticed a small sapling that had appeared on Taylin's head. The sapling stood on Taylin's head and waved its two branches as if to show off to Messiah.
Taylin extended her hand and held the sapling in her palm. After the World Tree sprouted, it would often ignore Taylin's wishes and run out of Taylin's body.
Today, the World Tree was far more violent than before. This was also the reason why Taylin wanted to find Josiah.
"Let's end the conversation here, Miss Taylin."
Messiah no longer paid attention to the sapling in Taylin's palm.
A bone-chilling murderous intent suddenly attacked Messiah. This caused Messiah to immediately place his hand on his sword.
She thought it was the servant of the Chaos Demon, but when Messiah found the source of the murderous intent, he discovered that it was an ordinary middle-aged man.
