"????" the three people don't know why.

"My soldiers are all good boys. Tamro lowered his head and continued: "They have parents, lovers, and maybe children, but because of the war with the southerners, they have left their homes and set foot on the battlefield. As a commander, my mission is to hold this fortress, but in my opinion, it is more important to cherish the life of every soldier under my command. Stoker's elite squad is indeed too strong for them, and if they send troops to encircle and suppress them, it is estimated that at least 200 people will be killed. But if you go, maybe you'll be in danger, but I'm sure it won't be great. So, maybe it's selfish, maybe it's unfair to you, but I ask you to help us with this task. ”

"......" Cordak was silent, he was not a ruthless person, and he could see that Tamro was not acting now, but this task was indeed risky for Vera. Therefore, he was still ready to open his mouth to refuse.

But Tamro, apparently reluctant, left his desk and bowed deeply to the three Regners. Although he didn't say anything, the pleading look on his face was already overflowing.

The three of ......them were silent for a moment, they didn't expect that the Supreme Commander of the Costa Fortress would put down his identity and come to beg the three of them in person. Who is he? He is the general of the Empire, the supreme commander of the defending side, and now, he has come to beg these three mercenaries? For a while, the feelings of the three of Regna were extremely complicated.

"You don't have to, you ......," Kordak reluctantly spoke, and although Tamro had done his part, Vera's place in his heart was unassailable. If he could trade the lives of hundreds of people for Vera's safety, he would not hesitate to do it. Therefore, he still has to refuse.

"I have to. "If my salute can save the lives of two hundred of my boys, then even if I am given a hundred chances, I will choose so." ”

"......" Kordak pondered over and over again what should be done to make the most reasonable refusal.

But at this moment, Vera spoke: "Promise him......"

"Mother-in-law, shut up!" Cordak turned his head and said urgently, "Don't think this is child's play, this mission is too dangerous for you!"

"Am I holding you back again?" A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Vera's mouth, "I know, in fact, you don't accept this task, it's all because of me." ”

"Because the task is really dangerous. Kordak didn't give in.

"Which of our missions is not dangerous?" Vera asked rhetorically, "We have even survived a crisis like the Eyes of the Arcane, will we still miss such a small mission?" ”

"No, I'm not at ease!" Kordak objected.

"Kordak!" Vera cried out, "You remember what I said, don't you? Not only do you have to grow, but Ray has to grow, and I have to grow too! I don't want to be a useless woman who hides under your wings forever! I don't want to hold everyone back! I want to become stronger! You can't protect me all the time in this life!"

"......" Cordak was shocked by Vera's strength, although Vera has always been a very strong woman, but the momentum she showed just now was far different from before. That's not the coquettishness and unreasonableness of relying on good men not to fight with women, but real toughness and self-confidence. Vera, it has indeed changed.

"Trust me once, and give me a chance, okay?" Vera said earnestly.

"......" Kordak stared at Vera for a long time, and then suddenly laughed: "No problem! General Tamro, we took this mission!"

The men discussed the specifics of the mission again, after which Kordak left with Regner. They promised to prepare today and leave early tomorrow morning.

In addition, Regner also specially asked Tamro to help take care of Erin who stayed here. To be honest, with the weak nature of the half-elf girl, it is really not very comfortable to leave her alone in such a military fortress Regner. And Tamro also seriously agreed, and promised to always send a soldier to protect her secretly.

After hearing the promise of the Supreme Commander of the Costa Fortress, Regner finally relented and left the office with Kordak.

"Why bother to be inferior to these mercenaries, they are just a bunch of lowly people who can sell their lives for money, and they don't deserve the respect of a professional soldier like you. After the three of Kordak left, the High Mage said with some dissatisfaction.

"Sir doesn't know, these people are real warriors. Tamro said.

"Oh?"

"Maybe you haven't been to Reims Continent, so you don't know what's going on there, but I've dealt with people from Reims Continent a few times when the Empire was expanding eastward. Tamro said: "At that time, the Eye of the Secret Law was the largest guild in the human world on the Lance Continent. And, possibly, it could even be the largest guild in the world. ”

"I don't know how it compares to my Imperial Court Mage Association?" the high-ranking mage asked proudly.

"Stronger than the Court Mage Guild. Tamro said in a direct manner unique to a soldier: "Even now, the number of high-level mages in the Palace Mage Association is less than ten, and at that time, there were only fourteen high-level mages in the eyes of the secret law. ”

"......" The high-level mage's face was a little ugly, he didn't expect that the guild in the poor countryside of the Lance Continent could gather so many high-level mages. These archmages with magic rings are not rotten cabbages, and even one more is not easy. And now it seems that the number of high-level mages in the eyes of the secret law is about half more than that of the palace mage association, so the strength of this guild must not be underestimated.

"And according to the intelligence, those mercenaries just now had a confrontation with such a huge guild, and they also retreated and fled to the western continent. Although the help of other forces is inevitably indispensable, the courage to be able to face a super guild with the strength of four people is worthy of my respect. Tamro said lightly.

"It's just a bunch of lucky imps. "The high-level mage is still stubborn.

"They're not just lucky. Tamro continued, "The emaciated boy named Regner just now......"

"What's wrong with him?"

"If he uses all his strength, I'm afraid the two of us together will not be his opponent. Tamro said, "Because when he was only level eleven, he killed a high-level mage and a high-level knight alone. He's strong, very strong!"

"......" Hearing Regner's sensational feat, the high-ranking mage's face suddenly turned a little ugly.

"And. Tamro flipped through the papers on the table and whispered, "It is said that he will be the next head of MI." It is very necessary for the military to give enough respect to the future intelligence chiefs. ”

......

"You have to be careful. Erin reluctantly said that she actually wanted to follow the past, as long as Regner said the word "go" at this time, she would not hesitate to throw everything away and follow Ragner on the road, even if it was about to face a cruel and bloody battlefield.

But Regner never mentioned it, after all, this mission is still very dangerous. And he knows Erin's character very well, he must not have the slightest soft-heartedness at this time, otherwise he will regret it for the rest of his life. He just touched Erin's face, and then said, "Don't worry! I'll be back in a month at most, intact!"

"You...... You promise!" Erin was still uneasy.

"Promise! Promise!" Regner hurriedly complied, and then he rubbed Erin's long silver hair: "I won't lie to you, I said I won't leave you alone, then I will do it!"

Erin raised her head and looked at Regner with a confident smile on her face, and for some reason the melancholy and worry in her heart suddenly decreased a little. She nodded vigorously, "Hmm!"

"All right, you two show affection again, and the sun will set, why don't we go again to-morrow?" said Kordak lazily.

"Pull it down, the two of them will definitely get tired of it again tomorrow, and they still can't leave. "Vera is very cooperative.

"Oh, that's a real problem, no, I'll go to Tamro and quit this mission. Obviously I can't go!" Kordaq continued to complain.

"Long-winded! You two can always fly together, what is the point of me talking to Erin here?!" Regna fought back viciously: "And say that I show affection? Oh, I don't remember which two people, in front of the supreme commander of the fortress! Erin, you don't know, my teeth were almost sore at the time!"

"You stinky boy dare to talk back to the boss?" said Kordak, furious.

"Little Thunder~~" Vera approached Regner with a snort, and then pinched his ear and suddenly asked sharply: "Tell the old lady!Do you want to die or don't want to live anymore?!!!?"

"Oh oh oh! I was wrong, I was wrong! Okay, okay, I'll go! Don't pull your ears! Sister Vera can't pull her hair! Hey! Let me say hello to Erin again!"

"What kind of hello, it's not life and death, I'll be back in a few days!

"Whew......! That's it, Irene. We'll be back in a few days, don't worry!"

"Goodbye!" Erin smiled and waved at the trio as they embarked on a new adventure.
