Chapter 16: Sister?
"Hey, are you alright?" Regna was really startled when he saw No. 1 suddenly spurting blood. At first, he thought it was someone sneaking up on them, but after a second of observation, he realized that there was no one around. So what is the reason? No. 1 has taken poison? Could it be that the Assassination Department wants to kill No. 1 for some reason, and No. 1 hates the Stoke Empire because of this, so he comes to help him?
So, what does Number One mean is to let himself help her get revenge? huh...... It's not that it can't be considered, anyway, the two empires are at war, and even if he takes revenge on No. 1, it's a matter of the way.
Number One waved his hand, signaling that he was fine. Blood had already stained her veil, and Number One had no choice but to take off her veil.
Regner couldn't help but be stunned when he saw One's face, not because of how beautiful One's face was. She is beautiful, but compared with the beauties of Erin and Annelot, she is still a little worse, and according to Regner's aesthetic standards, she can be on par with Innellis.
Regner was sluggish for another reason. Because he found that this woman ...... There is a bit of similarity between the eyebrows and eyes!
Regner himself is relatively handsome, and when he was a child, he seemed to be a bit androgynous, and he remembers that Vera made a few jokes about it. But fortunately, as he grew older, Regner's appearance gradually took on a bit of masculinity, so that people would not confuse his gender.
And the appearance of the number one in front of her is too strange, and when Regner looks at her, she feels like she has seen a female version of herself. Her eyebrows are thinner, the bridge of her nose is straighter, and her mouth is smaller. However, the overall face shape and demeanor are very similar to Regner. If you change your hairstyle to the same style as yourself, Regner will think he's looking in the mirror if he doesn't look closely!
"You ......," Regner could only mutter, looking at One's appearance.
"This is the first time in years that I've shown my true colors. Number One sighed and said, "Don't worry, I won't use this appearance to do anything bad for you." ”
"Who the hell are you?" Regner couldn't help but ask, "Why did you help me, why did you look so much like me, why did you suddenly vomit blood?"
"......" One listened to what Regner said, but only shook his head.
"Tell me!" Regner was going crazy.
No. 1 saw that if he didn't say something, Regner would never give up. So she could only say helplessly: "I will help you because I was originally on your side." ”
"You're MIA? no, you're from the Lunaris Thieves' Guild?!" Regner's eyes flashed with wariness.
"Nope. Number One shook his head: "I'm just on your side, and I have nothing to do with those guilds or anything." What exactly, I can't tell you, it's the rule. ”
“......”
"I look like you, it's just my own will. Number One went on to say, "And how exactly I did it, that's the rule, and I can't say either." ”
“......”
"As for why I vomited blood......"
Before No. 1 finished speaking, Regner answered with black lines on his head: "It's also a rule, or you can't say it, right?"
"I can tell you this. "One never seemed to intend for Regna to figure out where he was next. "I would vomit blood because I broke the rules," she explained. ”
"Can you tell me what the rules are, then?" Regner asked, adding, "If it's going to hurt you, forget it." ”
"No, it won't. One shook her head, and she replied, "I know something, something that no one should know." This in itself is a reflection on the rules...... Or an offense of fate, but just 'knowing' that level of offense doesn't punish me. But I can't say these things, because once I say them, something may be rewritten, and the repercussions will be borne by the person who rewrote it, that is, me. So I was punished, that is, I took the consequences of the impact. ”
"Oh~~~!" Regner said with a sudden realization, "I didn't understand ...... at all"
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. Number One shrugged her shoulders, she first used her magic to heal herself, and then said, "What I just told you, you just need to remember, and you will naturally understand it later." But I'd advise you to hurry, because time is really running out. He...... It's already halfway. ”
"The Founding War?" Regner thought to himself, what had happened? Not only did Malolet not want to mention it, but Number One would have been inexplicably punished when he talked about it!
"I see. "Although I am still confused about the current situation, Regna still plans to agree to the matter first, and as for the inside story, let's investigate it slowly!
One nodded, she looked at Regner, and said, "You yourself have to be careful in the Hawke Empire. Remember, sometimes your enemies aren't just Stokers, they may be around you. ”
"I will. Regner looked at Number One in surprise, as she spoke in a tone that seemed familiar to Regner. What's even more strange is that this familiarity does not surprise or discomfort Regner, as if she is taking things for granted to her.
He frowned and thought about it, then disappointed to find that his memories really didn't contain any information about One. He never even remembered that he knew a person of the opposite sex who looked like him, and that it was a toddler? This may have been known only by asking the old man, but the old man was dead.
Forget it, I can't think clearly, or I don't want to. Regner looked down at Sasha, who was still asleep not far away, and prepared to wake her up.
"Leave this child to me!" One began, "I'll take care of sending her home." ”
"You have such good intentions?" Regner still didn't dare to fully trust One.
"You can see that I'm eating her jealousy, and I don't want her to stick to you anymore. Number One said as he walked over.
"......" Regner was speechless.
Number One picked Sasha up and carried her on her back. Regner looked at Sasha, the little girl was breathing evenly with her eyes closed, and she really didn't seem to be too nervous. Did you trust yourself, or did Number One use some kind of appeasement magic?
Regner couldn't tell, and he didn't want to. He just took a small bag of coins out of his pocket and stuffed it into Sasha's pocket.
"Don't steal the money, it's for her. Regner whispered.
"So I'm so inferior in your eyes?" said One, feigning some displeasure. I have to say that the temperament is indeed different between people. Although the facial structure is similar, the number one looks very amorous once he makes a feigned angry expression. And if you change to Regner, it will probably look cheap.
"I just don't want my help to go down the drain. Regner shrugged, looked at Sasha, and said, "That's just my salvation." ”
"You killed so many people before you were twenty years old, do you think you can be redeemed?"
"I don't care about the outcome, but I'll do it. Regner replied, "If I don't, I'll be even more miserable, and if I don't, I'll not be the person they think I am." ”
"Actually, I've considered assassinating the three women next to you. Suddenly, No. 1 said faintly.
"If you do, you're bound to face my endless hunt next. Regner turned his head and said in a serious and cold tone: "This is not a threat, this just shows that I will definitely do what I say." ”
"......" A subtle gloom flashed in One's eyes when she heard Regner's words, she looked at Regner, and then nodded: "I knew you would do it, so I didn't do it." ”
"It's good that you understand. Regner's tone slowed.
"Well, goodbye. Number One carried Sasha on his back, then turned to leave.
"Hey!" Regner couldn't help but exclaim again, because he didn't know when he would see Number One again, so he thought it would be better to finish the question.
"What's wrong?" One paused, turning his head.
"Are you my sister?" Regner hesitated for a moment and asked, he thought for a long time, only his sister was the most suitable for No. 1.
After all, she turned her back on the country's norms for the sake of the self she just met, and she had a face like her own imagination, so if she thought about it, it would make sense if she was Regner's own sister. For example, what kind of changes led to the separation of sisters and brothers, one ran away to Melindell, and the other lived in the thousand-year-old capital. Then, because of his age, One, who has childhood memories, knows Regner's identity, but Ragner doesn't know that One's existence exists......
Regner's brain was opened, and he made up a bloody romance drama in his own brain, and he was even ready to try to accept such a sudden sister.
But Number One suddenly laughed: "Of course not. ”
"Rereally not?" Regna didn't believe it.
"Not really!" said One, with all the certainty that Regner could see in her eyes. She either didn't lie, or she had more superb acting skills than the top kabuki. Regner didn't think it would be the latter.
"Alright then, take care too. Regner had no choice but to give up, and he finally added: "If you can, help me take care of Sasha." This is what I owe her. ”
"I will. By this time, Number One had continued to walk, and she did not look back when she answered.
Because of this, Regner didn't see One's expression at all. He couldn't have imagined that the number one, who had turned his back, suddenly began to cry at this time. The woman who had always seemed to be very cunning and had always kept Regner confused was leaving silent tears at this time.
"Really...... It's completely gone. So do I want to keep chasing?" First thought silently in her mind, but after thinking back to the figure she had been, she still cheered up her spirits and walked on firmly.
Even if this person is no longer you, even if this person is just a legacy of yours, I will continue to protect him. Because this is the only proof of your existence in this world......
