Lane came to the restaurant and greeted acquaintances.

"Good morning, Kiki, is there anything different about the tavern?" said Rien.

"Well, everybody's the same. Kiki said, "Grandpa quit drinking for less than a week, and then he started drinking again. ”

"Hehe, I'll talk to him. Lane said.

"Oh, Rayne, welcome back. The shopkeeper said, "You're all right, are you?"

"Well, it's almost fine. Li En said, "Old man, you still haven't changed, you've been drinking in broad daylight." ”

"Ahaha, this is a celebration of your recovery. The shopkeeper said, "And it's already winter, and the logging work is scattered, so there's nothing to do." ”

"If it's a craftsman's job, it's the second best person after the old man Jixiang, and if there's anything you want me to do, you can come and visit me at any time. ”

"Thank you, I'll trouble you then. Lane said.

"Well, Lane, you're awake, not only have you been counted by the nobles, but you haven't known your whereabouts for a month, which really worries us. An acquaintance came over and said.

"I'm sorry, I know I've done a lot of dangerous things. ”

"Anyway, it's great to be able to come back, take these and eat them with Miss Elyser. “

The chef gave the dish he had just made to Rien.

"Haha, thank you. Lane said.

Tovar: "Riene, are you here for a drink too?"

"No, I can't drink it yet. Lane said.

"It's great to be able to get you back without a hitch. Tovar said, "The little eldest sister and Her Royal Highness the princess are also very worried. ”

Dawn said, "Yes, I am saved, but why did you find me in that kind of place?"

"Well, yes, I didn't find out where you were. Tovar said.

"What do you mean?" said Rien.

"The day before yesterday, I received a contact from my power guide, and the other party told me one-sidedly and carefully where you are, and then hung up directly. Tovar said.

"Just in case, I'll take an investigation, and you'll be there. ”

"Well, I'm really concerned, who is the unknown communication?" said Lane.

"I can't figure it out, and I don't remember that voice. Tovar said, "But I seem to have heard it, and I don't seem to have heard it, but it's complicated." ”

"Forget it, it's useless to think about this matter anymore, the current situation in the empire is the problem. ”

Lane said, "Yes, Mr. Tovar, what will you guerrillas do?"

"We do everything our own way. Tovar said: "Now the associations within the empire are truly isolated.

Including the salad guy, if only everyone was okay. ”

"Sure enough, it's serious. Lane said.

"Well, ordinary people are also involved, and the current situation is completely dominated by the aristocracy. ”

"But there is still a part of the garrison that continues to put up fierce resistance. Tovar said.

"That's right. Lane said.

"There are also some rather suspicious messages. Tovar said, "Several mercenary groups, as well as the group of God-Eater Serpents, seem to have begun to operate in various places. ”

Li En said: "The mysterious place of the mercenary group and the God Eater Serpent is actually taking advantage of the chaos to make up their minds. ”

"Although there were already nobles using mercenary groups, it seems that they hired a large number of people on a larger scale. ”

Tovar said: "If you form an association, you must be operating in various covert places, and Crosbel's side is also a mess.

There are so many things to worry about, and it feels like I'm about to perforate my stomach. ”

"Everything will be fine," Lane said. ”

"yes, ah, I'm sorry to make you have to worry about it. "All in all, it's better to try to recover physically and mentally, and it's also for the future," Tovar said. Tovar said.

"Thank you in every way, Mr. Tovar. Lane said.

"It's nothing, it's just some small advice from the seniors in life. Tovar said, "And it's a rare opportunity, why don't you go to a hot spring?"

"It's called the Phoenix Pavilion, so if you soak in the hot springs, you can relax your body and mind. ”

"Haha, that's right. Lane said, "I'll check it out later." ”

So, Lane left the tavern and came to the Phoenix Pavilion.

"Oh, Master Lien, you're all right. The owner said.

"Well, thank you, but don't call me young master. Lane said.

"Haha, under the recent drastic changes in the situation, all sorts of things have happened to us here. , The Phoenix Pavilion, which has a deep relationship with the royal family, must not be frustrated because of this, and everyone cooperates with each other to find a way to survive.

Master, be sure to come and play at any time. ”

"Well, I'll do it. Lane said.

"Well, you're welcome, Master Lane. A maid who had grown up with her saw Rien, "You've woken up, and I want to say I'm going to visit you." ”

"Well, it's suddenly like this, but I'm sorry to worry you, I'm fine, don't worry. Lane said.

"Anyway, the young master often cultivates with Master Yun, I don't think it will be so easy, and I have also gone to the academy to exercise. “

Maid: "What a envy, like I never left Youmir." ”

"Haha, there's a chance to hang out. "But things haven't been stable lately. ”

"Well, thank you, Lane, come on. The maid said.

I left the Phoenix Pavilion and went to the Western restaurant.

"Oh, it's Lane, his face doesn't seem bad. The manager said, "If your nutritional status is not good, I would like you to drink the vegetable soup that you have studied in the store." ”

"Well, I appreciate your kindness. Li En said, "Haha, the manager is still studying the cuisine as usual." ”

"I've been working hard to make the best cooking, and it seems that after you went to the academy, you also started cooking. ”

"I would cook in the dorm with my classmates. Lane said, "The recipe you gave me before is gone." ”

"Ah, are you gone?" said the manager.

"It seems so, yes. Lane said, "I've written a lot of dishes on it." ”

"Well, this case, since it's rare for you to show up, Lane, I'll give you this. ”

"New recipe?" Rien took it.

"Because it's my backup, you're welcome, you can take it. The store manager said.

'Thank you so much. Dawn said.

"Maybe it can help you, the cooking is simple, and you can enjoy cooking with family and friends when you have time. ”

"Then I'll take it. Lane said.

Leaving the Western restaurant, I came to the auditorium of Youmir.

"Ah, Miss Nun, long time no see. Lane said.

"Rien, you're finally back, and it's great that I've heard that you're missing in Tolista, and I'm worried about you.

You've always been the ones I've been worried about. ”

"I'm sorry, but now we're grown up. Lane said.

"Well, I can see that although I have a lot of things to ask you, as long as Li En comes back safely, it is enough now.

Please rest well and take care of your body. ”

"Okay. Rien: "Excuse me, Priest. ”

"It's okay, I haven't seen you for 2 months, and I'm relieved to know that you're safe, but Lane, you seem to be very confused. ”

"But don't be in a hurry, now is the time to see yourself and your surroundings again, right?"

Lane said, "That's right, I'll calm down." ”

In the auditorium, saw Her Royal Highness the princess praying.

"Yes, Mr. Lane. The princess said, "Hehe, my face is better than yesterday." ”

"Yes, thanks to you, does Her Royal Highness feel any inconvenience here?" said Ryne, 'This is a very remote place, if you need anything, please let me know. ’

"Why, I don't think so at all. The princess said, "The wonderful hot springs and the snowy scenery are full of style, and Aunt Lucia's food is also superb, so I enjoy it very much." ”

"It's the place where my friend Elysée was born and raised. ”

"Haha, thank you for saying that. Lane said.

"Hehe, what's even more surprising is that I also met with Mr. Lane. The princess said, "Ah, I also know a wonderful cat named Serenu, who can talk." ”

"Well, sure enough, it's also the gray rider who wants to ride with Mr. Lane, and I see each other, and now I seem to be sleeping, hehe, when will I wake up. “

"Although this is not appropriate for me, please don't force yourself too much, because I myself have been separated from my companions and important people," said Riene. ”

"So, I can somewhat understand the feelings of Her Royal Highness the Princess. ”

"Mr. Lane. Her Royal Highness the Princess: "Woo, I'm sorry, as a member of the royal family, I obviously can't panic because of something of this magnitude." ”

"When I think about my father and mother, and Cedric and my brother, I think... On that terrible morning, Cedric and I had a little argument.

I wanted to reconcile with him at night, but the situation turned out to be like this. ”

"Woo. The princess sobbed.

"No problem, they'll be safe. Lai said, "Now you just need to believe in them, so Your Royal Highness Princess, you must also work hard." ”

"Whether it's Elyse, or everyone here, you can definitely become the strength of Your Highness. ”

"Hehe, thank you. Her Royal Highness said: "I'm fine, that's a little softer than my sister, it's rare to have a chance that brother and sister can get along, it's a little bad for me to intervene from the side." ”

"Ah, me and Elyse, indeed she, a little bit inseparable from me as an elder brother. Lane said, "But because of this incident, it seems that she is worried." ”

"I'll find a way to make her happier. ”

"Woo, I didn't mean that, really, Mr. Lane is too cunning. The princess said, "Sure enough, let me call you Brother Ryne." ”

"Ahh This one. Lane said.

"Anyway, it's great to be here in Umir, hehe, thanks to this, I have been gently cared for by Mr. Lieve, and Brother Olivier seems to have been here before, so I've always been interested in this place. ”

'Ah, so?' said Riene, "I heard that this hot spring pavilion was gifted. ”

"I think it was two years ago. "The princess said, "It was easy for my brother at that time to make a private visit, and he was not as laborious as he is now." ”

"I see, no wonder I'm not impressed. Li En said, "Two years ago, I happened to be practicing with Master. ”

"Oh, that's right, it's a pity. The princess said, "If you two had known each other at the time, perhaps Mr. Lane and I would have known each other earlier." ”

Lane then left the auditorium.

In the pavilion outside, Elysée and Serenu were seen together.

"Elyse, you're with Serenu. Lane said.

"Well, because it's cold outside, I'd like to treat her to hot milk. Elysée said.

Serenu: "Whew, that's right, leave me alone, I'll just stay here and enjoy the hot springs." ”

"That's not going to work. Elyse: "Because you are the one who saved my brother who has done us a favor." ”

"Brother, what's wrong?" said Rien.

"No, nothing. Lane said.

"But seriously, don't call me a benefactor, if you really want to say it, I'll lose some money to you. Serenu said.

"What is this?" said Elyse.

"Haha, it's okay, the temperature seems to be pretty good, then I'll enjoy it gratefully. Serenu said.

"All in all, I'm really very Serenu. Elyse: "I'll take care of you while you're here, and you can tell me if you need anything." ”

"No, I really don't care about me, that, I'm sorry. ”

Next, Lane went to the owner of the fishing shop.

"Oh, Lane, it's been a long time, and it's reassuring to hear that you've recovered. The boss said.

"Well, I'm fine, excuse me. Lane said.

"This set of fishing gear will be given to you, so enjoy the fun of fishing. The boss shoehorned the props over.

"Thank you. Li En said, after all, people are so enthusiastic, it's hard to refuse.

After that, Lane came to the Phoenix Pavilion.

"Shopkeeper, can I use the hot springs now?"

"Oh, that's right, no problem, it's been cleaned, it's ready to go. The owner said.

"Haha, that's lucky. Lane said.

Entering the hot spring, Lane soaked in the hot spring, thinking about the recent events.

"What am I going to do next, now the aristocratic faction and the Iron Blood's side are still fighting, and the academy has also been occupied.

Chloe really lost to him completely, although he borrowed the power of the riding god who knew almost nothing. "But it's not at the same level as him." ”

"Now I understand, it turns out that Chloe didn't get serious at the beginning, otherwise he would have easily suppressed himself, but he didn't notice this, thinking that he had won, and then he was knocked down with just one blow. ”

"If I had more strength, as long as I could continue to be in the academy with everyone, I would definitely be able to change something, but I left everyone behind and ran away. ”

"It's really not the same, although I was forced to leave, but, after all, if I have the power to defeat Crow.

Now that they have lost everything and finally got a place to stay, what happened to them, and how should they move forward next?"

"Brother. Elyse: "Excuse me." ”

"Why are you here Elyse. Lane said.

"I heard my brother seems to be here. Elysée said, "I want to say that this is a rare opportunity, so let me come in with me." ”

"Although there was a group when I was a child, it was five years ago. ”

"We are family, this kind of thing is very ordinary, brother, I have also experienced a lot of things and seem to be very tired, at least let me talk to you. Elysée said.

"Okay. ”

Elyse: 'It's just the right temperature, I haven't been to this place for a long time, and it's really different. ”

Li En said, "Well, yes, although the autumn leaves season is good, the winter scene has another flavor, but I can't learn to enjoy it while drinking like Master."

"Hehe, because he's really good at drinking. Elysée said, "Although it is not appropriate to always bring my father with me. ”

"I'm sorry that Elyse thought about it so much. Lane said.

"It's nothing, I don't. Elysée said.

"It's not just Elyse, it's true to me, whoever it is. "Dawn said: 'If you think about it, I was always like this, 12 years ago my father took me in, and 8 years ago on a snowy day, I lost control, and my illness scared Elyse too. ’

"Master has spent several years taking me to practice, but even when it was interrupted, even when I left everyone and ran away a month ago. Lane said.

"When I think about it, I always accept the help of others, and I have always been taken care of by others, but I have not done anything myself. "It even brought about all kinds of disasters and involved everyone. ”

"I'm not qualified to be treated gently, and I'm the kind of person who can't protect or repay the people who matter to me. ”

"It must have been wrong from the beginning, and if things were going to turn out like this, I shouldn't have gone to any academy at all. ”

Elyse: "Brother, do you mean that? What are the qualifications, and who decides that kind of thing?"

Other people don't want you to protect or repay you at all, and you can't owe them anything just because you are gentle with you or concerned about you.

Everyone just likes my brother, it must be because I think my brother is very important, whether it is my father, my mother, my master, and everyone in the special class, I must be. ”

Elysée said, "Me too." ”

"Elyse. ”

"If you don't have the qualifications or anything, please don't say this kind of thing, it's just that my brother didn't notice it, it's obvious that people who value themselves so much, why can't my brother understand that everyone also attaches great importance to you?

Think about it, brother. Elyse: "When you say goodbye, what do you all wear?" ”

"Ahh Lane said.

Yes, how much people believe in themselves and entrust everything to themselves.

"That's right. "Everyone believes that no matter what difficulties occur, we will be able to overcome them together, and I believe that one day we can control the future." ”

"No matter how confused and anxious you are now, I believe that everyone, and everyone believes in me, will never give up the struggle, and continue to move forward no matter what!" Li said. ”

"As long as we're in a special class. ”

"Brother. Elyse smiled with relief.

"Thanks to you, Elysée reminds me of this, thank you. Lane said.

"No, I didn't do anything," said Elyse, "it must be something that my brother gained from living in the academy, although I am also a little envious of the students in the special class." ”

"I'm a useless brother, but please keep watching me from the side. "One day I will grow up to be a man who can hold his head high and call himself Elyse's older brother," Riene said.

"Yes. Elysée said.

"Hehe, this is finally a matter of settlement. Her Royal Highness and Serenu walked in with the cat in their arms.

"Oh, excuse me. Serenu said.

"Why are you here?" Elyse said.

"We asked Mr. Tovar, so let's take a look at the situation. Her Royal Highness said, "In order to restore Mr. Rien's spirits, I would like to see if there is anything I can do to help." ”

Serenu: "Ai, I really dare to say that I have been observing the timing all along. ”

"Watch the timing?" said Rian.

"You, did you see that?" said Elyse's face flushed.

"Hehe, it doesn't look like you need me at all. The princess said, "Sharing their thoughts with each other is really a brother and sister with good feelings, and it is really jealous." ”

"Ahh Elysée said.

"Haha, that one doesn't dare to be. "But whether it is Elysée or Her Royal Highness the Princess, it would be better to be more cautious in this regard." ”

"Hehe, Mr. Lane is not going to say such things here. Her Royal Highness said, "We've all come here, let's enjoy it together." ”

"What a princess. Elysée said.

"I'm sorry. ”

"Huh?"

"That's about the thing so far. "Emma has also accused me that I still can't understand human feelings and subtle emotions. ”

"So I'm probably too nerve-wracked. ”

"It's okay, I was just angry with you when I was in the mountains earlier, I'm sorry. Lane said.

"Really, what's wrong with you. Serenu said.

At this time, there was a sudden great tremor.

"This voice, I guess it's not mechanical. Lane said.

"Sure enough, it's still here. "And oh no," said Serenu, "this breath is getting closer and closer. ”

"After all, find a way to bring it down," Lane said. ”

....

Returned home.

Li En and the others reported the matter, and everyone discussed it together.

"There's a mechanical monster heading towards the territory?"

"Well, you can feel the aura of the aura, although there is still a distance, but it is indeed moving towards here. ”

Serenu: "From the back of the valley road. ”

"It seems naïve. Tovar said, "If you fall into a valley like that, you still can't solve it completely." ”

"No, I think in that case, there is nothing to be done. Ryne said, "But why did you come to Umir?" ”

"Maybe it's you, you're the Ash Initiator. Serenu said.
