Chapter Seventy-Three: Past and Present and Future

"Leolu, wait!"

Hanging up the phone, Ikki also followed in the footsteps of Leo Road.

It was dark outside, not completely dark because of the light, and the little figure of the elf was slowly walking down a lonely road.

The cold wind mixed with the fallen leaves that had withered brushed the bodies of the two of them.

One of them shook his body, claws around his arms, rubbed his nose again, and when he heard the voice of the young man behind him, he paused, but he didn't stop.

"Just wait for me!"

Seeing Leolu's attitude, Yihui, who was not physically strong, didn't know where he got the perseverance, so he actually accelerated to chase after him.

Leo Lu turned his head, trying not to let the boy in front of him see his expression.

"I'm fine, but can I just let me be alone now?"

When Ikki next to him came to him, he was already out of breath, and his legs were shaking uncontrollably.

Leolu remembered that when he first went out on a trip with this kid, he seemed to have said that he had worked hard, but now it seemed that he had not changed much.

"I don't object to you if you want to be distracted, but I have to be with you!"

Ikki endured the pain in his lungs due to the rapid consumption of oxygen, and raised his head to look at Leo Lu without refusing.

“…… Why don't you understand?" Leolu shook his head, finally turning his face, "I'm just a little puzzled......"

"No matter what, I can't let you act on your own, that's ...... My duty as a trainer!"

It seems that he is serious, and even such a statement has been made, Leolu can't help but feel funny.

"We know that there is still too little information about the Kanto region, and we have no way of knowing the situation there, so we ...... As you said yourself—at least look at what's in front of you!"

"Look at what's in front of you...... What?"

The more Leolu thought about it, the more incredible it became, the normal conversation sounded very strange now, not to mention that those words actually came out of his own mouth, although he didn't come up with it himself......

"Okay, okay, I see, come with you if you want to come...... What a trouble, you little ghost~"

After chatting with Ikki, his mood relaxed a little, and Leo Lu no longer stubbornly asked to go alone.

"Little ...... Imp?!"

Ikki never imagined that he would be called that by Leolu, and the shelf he had just forced himself to put on and the momentum that he had never had before dissipated like mist meeting a strong wind.

"Okay, do you want to come along!"

While Ikki was stunned, Leo Lu had already walked far ahead with his paws behind his head......

"Oh yes! All of a sudden, I ...... said that."

Ikki stomped his foot and followed again.

Sure enough, he hated being called a "little" ghost......

In fact, Leolu also knew that he should not be swayed by this seemingly inexplicable feeling, but he could not forget it, not even all the time.

Ikki chased after him, and wanted to complain a few words, but seeing Leolu's expression that he didn't want to talk, he swallowed the words back into his stomach.

"Now, Kazuki, didn't you say you wanted to know about my past?"

Coldly, the elf next to him said such a sentence, and he didn't know if it was touching the scene or having ulterior motives.

Kazuki couldn't guess Leolu's thoughts, and he never had ......

After thinking about it, Yihui nodded, but he was puzzled: "You did say it, but now ......"

"It doesn't make a difference...... Leolu shook his head, "you should be ...... Now I just want to say it......"

Leolu seemed a little impatient today, and Kazuki understood that part of the reason was that he had to be with him, so he didn't dare to provoke him.

"That'...... Well......"

Nodding in agreement, Ikki silently walked by Leolu's side, just secretly observing his state.

"Don't get me wrong...... Leolu also felt that his words were strange, so he added after Kazuki's words, "I just ...... I just want you to know a little bit about my past, so that you can get to know me a little bit better - just think of it as if the two of us were even!"

But before Leolu could tell him about him, Kazuki hurriedly told him to stop.

"Wait, wait!" Ikki looked at Leo Lu in a panic, "Flattening, what are you, I don't seem to be doing you much......, am I?"

Leolu rubbed his head in embarrassment, feeling it buzz like a fly inside.

"It's just that you don't remember, anyway, I owe you and your family a lot, and I'll have to pay it back slowly in the future...... Okay, don't worry about that, don't challenge my patience, okay?"

Seeing that Leo Lu said such slightly angry words to him, even though Ikki still had many unanswered questions, he had no choice but to close his mouth and wait for Leo Lu seriously......

"It's really troublesome...... Leo Lu put down his claws, frowned and looked around, and it didn't take long for Leo Lu to grab Ikki's sleeve and take him to the longboard seat not far away, "Listen, my past is not a wonderful story, I'll only tell it once, you better listen carefully!"

was given a gag order, and Yihui had no choice but to nod helplessly.

Leolu cleared his throat in a feigned senselessness, and then began to speak with a [telepathy] that only Kazuki could hear.

"I'm ......"

"So, you're Chirulian's brother, tell me what happened to you!"

After many attempts, Nazi finally heard the voice of Larus.

However, the elf, who seemed to have been completely frightened, still did not seem to have woken up from the trance at that time.

But Nazi was glad that she had at least eliminated its malice towards her.

"Can't you remember...... Tsk, I'm in trouble......"

Nazi looked at the survey report of the surrounding environment that she had just put together, and sighed helplessly.

"What about the humans who attacked you? Can't you remember that?"

Putting down the information in her hand, Nazi sat down in front of the computer in the police station, her hands quickly typing something.

"I can't remember exactly, it doesn't seem to be as simple as I imagined......"

The thought of the cute elf who lived in the same room as him and accompanied Ikki and Leo Lu to the quartz convention met with an accident, even if he was extremely anxious, he could only turn into a sigh.

"There's no way to investigate like this, there are too few clues......"

"Laru~!"

"What!!!Do you remember that!"

Nazi suddenly jumped out of her chair and lifted Larulasi on the table, who didn't seem to understand Nazi's thoughts, and looked at Nazi with a tear-stained face and a bewildered expression.

"There may be a clue to your sister there...... No, maybe we can figure out who is behind it!"

Larulath still didn't seem to understand Nazi's words, but it understood the message that Nazi cared about the most.

It was able to find its sister, and that's it.

The pink eyes under the crown instantly glowed, and the small hand supported Nazi's arm and jumped onto her shoulder, firmly hugging Nazi's neck.

"Larue!!"

The small cry was crisp and pleasant, and Nazi understood what it meant, and in order to save time, she also used superpowers when she brought the necessary equipment.

"Little thing, hold on, I'm going to start on my way!!"
