It was a tavern near Anurad (the unnamed town).
Calling it a tavern was not entirely accurate. Obviously, no tavern would open in the wilderness. That's right, even the nearest city was more than ten kilometers away from this tavern.
If this was in Water Margin, a small place like this would be a scam that would treat its customers to human meat buns and make them drink knockout wine.
At this time, many tables in the tavern were filled with people. It looked very lively.
Suddenly, the door was opened from the outside.
Fluttering snowflakes and cold wind poured into the small room, which was especially warm because of the fireplace.
Accompanied by the wind and snow was a man wearing a thick trench coat. The high collar not only covered his neck but also half of his face.
He had a demonic red longsword hanging on his waist and a leather triangular hat on his head. He looked a little like a mercenary, but the eyes under the brim of the hat were not as muddy as those mercenaries who led a befuddled life. Instead, they were exceptionally bright, even to the point of being dazzling.
The bartender who was wiping a cup only glanced at him and felt his face hurt from the glare. He lowered his head and did not dare to continue looking.
"Your tavern has a special taste." The man sat down at the bar and glanced at the silver lion statue on the far right of the bar. He sneered and said, "Isn't that usually the statue of the goddess of wealth, Gaglomeia?"
"Our boss's personal hobby." The bartender lowered his head and replied casually with a smile, "What would you like to order, sir?"
"Steak set," the man said coldly.
The bartender stopped wiping the cup. "How well?"
"Roast it slowly with a warm fire," the man continued.
The bartender's forehead was covered in cold sweat. He tried to squeeze out a smile and said, "Please wait a moment …"
"No, no, no, that's not right." The man suddenly laughed. He said in a friendly tone as if he was teaching a nephew, "At this time, you should say 'my heart and my actions are as clear as a mirror', and I should say 'everything I do is righteous'. Then you should show me the list of judges from the Temple of Justice."
Seeing that his identity had been exposed, the bartender did not continue his disguise. He raised his battle axe from under the bar counter and roared, "Judgement!" Then, he hacked at the man!
The bartender's outburst was like a signal. Almost everyone in the tavern pulled out their weapons from under the table or from their bodies and roared, "Judgement!" They surrounded and attacked the man!
The reason 'almost' was because in a corner, there was a Player with a white name above his head who had been eating. He did not react at all when the others started fighting at the same time, and simply stared blankly at everything before him with a 'Who am I? Why am I here? Why are you guys fighting all of a sudden?' expression.
The man seemed to be oblivious to the attacks that enveloped him. He stood up with a smile and touched the hilt of his sword in an incomparably skilled manner.
A scarlet light blossomed.
In just an instant, time seemed to have stopped for everyone in the tavern. They froze on the spot.
After a few moments, blood spurted out of their bodies and they fell to the ground one after another. Their lives disappeared along with the puffs of blood.
The Player who did not keep up with the rhythm looked at the broken fork in his hand and slowly fell to the ground with an expression of 'What the f * ck, how did I die' …
After killing all the believers of the God of Justice in an instant, the man returned to his seat and looked at the headless bartender in front of him as if nothing had happened. He took a bottle of red wine from the bartender's head and slowly poured it into his own glass.
Then, he took out two pieces of bread and a whole piece of bacon from the counter. Sitting in the tavern where blood flowed like a river and corpses were everywhere, even the air was filled with the smell of rust, he pulled down his collar, revealing his face that was covered with scarlet vein-like veins, and began to eat and drink to his heart's content.
When he was halfway through his meal, he suddenly stopped moving.
Then, the man raised his head and looked at the silver lion statue at the edge of the bar.
The next moment, the silver statue came to life. With a loud roar, it jumped down from the pedestal and turned into a majestic lion that was as tall as a human!
"Damn demon, how dare you kill so many of my believers!"
"Hmph, hypocritical God. If I don't kill them, should I stretch my neck and let them kill me?" The man sneered. There was no fear on his face. Instead, it was filled with indescribable fanaticism. He pulled out his sword and said, "But I've finally lured you out. Goddess Luna is too cowardly. No matter how I kill her believers, it's useless. The so-called 'justice' is simpler. At least I didn't kill them one by one in vain …"
"You …" The snow-white lion squinted its eyes in disbelief. "You want to kill a God? No … You're not a demon. Could it be … "
"Demon? Oh, do you mean the thing on this sword? " The man showed a mocking expression. "That thing wanted to take over my body, so I killed it! I don't need any bullsh * t power! If it wasn't for the fact that this sword can extend my life and give me more time to explore the pinnacle of swordsmanship and experience the feeling of killing, I wouldn't even bother to take it! "
"I see. So it's the Body of the Divine Curse that can only live for 20 years." Aslan was, after all, a God. He quickly ignored the influence of the demon sword and saw through the other's true nature. However, this made him even more astonished. "Without any other assistance, he was actually able to completely suppress the demonization with the heart of a human … How could there be such a person …"
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm going to kill you here and complete the last of my swordsmanship! "The man raised his sword at the lion.
"Even with the help of the Demonic Egg, your life can't be extended for too long … Is that why you're in such a hurry to kill?" Aslan said slowly. "If that's the case, as the God of Justice, I will judge you!"
"What bullsh * t justice! This world is so chaotic, but I've never seen you act righteously! Justice that only knows how to bully the weak and fear the strong. I have no interest in listening to your nonsense. Go to hell! "
