"Claire, what are you doing here?"

Claire quietly lifted her dark vision, and the original glow in her eyes turned into her normal emerald green pupils.

He turned around and smiled indifferently at the visitor, "Edie, I haven't caught up with you yet." ”

Not far ahead, Edie carried a sword at her waist. In the winter, he also wore knight's half-length armor and a cloak to protect him from the cold. He was tall, half a head taller than Claire at a height of 1.8 meters, his left wrist rested casually on the hilt of the sword, and his right hand beckoned to Claire.

"You haven't been to Fort Savoie in thirteen years, are you lost, do you want me to take you back to your room?"

"Do you think a mage can easily get lost?" Claire walked towards Edie, "I just can't sleep, wandering around the castle and reminiscing about the past." ”

"This is not good! It stands to reason that the commander of an army will not get lost, but as far as I know, in the past two years, Her Royal Highness the Princess was able to draw a large circle on the steppe without Cecilia's help, and until recently she was still making up for her knowledge of geography. ”

"Be careful, princess gives you a sword. ”

Edie laughed and opened her hand, "The princess isn't so careful!

Claire looked at Edie's palm, and after two seconds, he smiled and opened his hand, "You're not going to strangle me again like you did in Lucerne, do you?"

"I can't break your mage shield with my arm strength alone!"

The two long-separated brothers hugged each other and patted each other on the back.

"And have you found memories of the past?" asked Edie as she put Claire on her shoulder.

"Find some. Claire pushed him away and pointed to the stairs at the other end, "You ran too fast and fell there. ”

"Idiot! I want to say that you have a good memory, and you're the one who wrestled! And it's not on this staircase!"

"No way. With my personality, do I look like I'm going to wrestle in a hurry?"

"You're so much more anxious than I am, Santos, when I saw you stabbed the fat pig in the stomach, it scared me. Edie put his arm around Claire's shoulder, "Let's go! If you want to remember the past, you must first look at the Knights' training grounds." Oh my God, I can't imagine such a clumsy guy in the world, a knight can practice the starting style for half a day!"

"Hmph, I've never seen a fool who has to practice his name for days. ”

The two teased each other as they walked out of the castle, first to the knights' training ground, and then along the snowy path back to the castle. The rime on both sides is covered with snowballs, and the tall trees are covered in silver.

"Remember? We used to sleep in this lane to the castle, and whoever arrived first would grab the bed by the window. But you're slower than me every time, Claire, you have to practice more, at least so that you can run out on two legs when your magic energy is exhausted!"

"That's why I said you were the one who wrestled. Turning the corner, Claire took a few steps and found Edie stopped, he turned around and squeezed Iger's scepter tightly, and asked suspiciously, "Edie?"

Edie looked up at the castle in a daze. Claire followed his gaze and noticed two figures on the castle terrace, and he added Eagle Eye to himself. This time, Charlotte and Cecilia were talking on the terrace, and the latter handed Charlotte a glass of wine, and after a while, they smiled happily.

Claire exhaled and looked back at Edie, whose left hand was on the hilt of the sword, knuckles straining.

“…… Do you like Cecilia?"

This time Edie reacted, he let go of the hilt of his sword and glanced at Claire, "Is there a problem? she's unmarried, and I'm unmarried." ”

Claire didn't answer, was there a question? He didn't know.

"Actually, before I met you, I had just returned from Cecilia. Edie stood still, looking at the terrace and said, "Because Elbert's matter involves the chef of her cottage, she is very panicked, and I reassure her that I will not let her have any problems." She smiled and said 'thank you' to me. I felt more satisfied than ever with this thank you, but now that I see her smile, I know how much difference there is between a genuine smile and a perfunctory smile. ”

"Edie ......"

"Charlotte was so worried about Elbert's death, didn't she?" said Edie as if to Claire, and as if to herself, "He's sentimental enough!

"Edie!"

"Am I wrong?!" Edie looked at Claire, "Charlotte is a good person, I admit it!, but he always focuses on the past, but ignores the people around him who need his attention now." He cares more about a dead person than a living person? Did he learn a spell and have something wrong with his brain?"

"He's not that kind of person......"

"He is!" interrupted Claire, "his self-reproach stems from his pride!

"And I'm different!" Eddie pointed to herself, "I can fight for the title and just keep Cecilia and her family!And what about Charlotte? What is he doing? He is worried about a dead man, and even wants a girl who is equally frightened to comfort him! Hey, what the hell is wrong with this world? Shouldn't men have the courage to take responsibility? When will they be favored by girls?"

"Edie, you shouldn't say something like that! it's too much!" Claire scolded.

"Look at you! You like Vivien Leigh too, don't you? Don't you know who Vivien Leigh loves? Is it really me who is too much? We used to be partners in life and death, and we ate a bowl of cold rice left over by a rich man together in Santos! But now you are scolding me for Charlotte! What did he give you?!Was it a delicious meal?! It tasted much better than that cold rice, didn't it?!"

"It's not the same question! You know I'm not that kind of person, and I'm scolding you because I know Charlotte and what kind of person he is! He's sincere and responsible! Do you think I'm going to be bought with wealth, knowledge, power, and power? No! It's not those who buy me, it's sincerity!" Claire said, clenching her scepter.

"Sincerity?" Edie gestured to the scepter in his hand, "Sincerity, Claire, hold your conscience and ask yourself, sincerity!, you've been on the lookout for me since the beginning, haven't you? for Charlotte! You're actually on guard against me who is in trouble with you!

Claire was silent, and after a few seconds, he asked with a cold expression, "What about you?" Ask yourself, if Evan wanted you to kill me, would you draw your sword?"

"......" It was Edie's turn to be silent, and after a while, he lowered his head and asked, "What if Charlotte wants you to kill me?"

"So that's the difference!" Claire sneered, "Charlotte will never ask me to kill you, and Evan will!"

With that, Claire turned and walked towards the castle.

"Claire!" Edie shouted, and Claire paused to hear Edie ask, "Everything has changed, hasn't it?"

“…… It's you and Evan who have changed, not me and Charlotte. ”

Claire said and walked back to the castle without looking back.
