Chapter 20: The Journey Begins
At noon the next day, after packing his luggage in the hotel room, Leo arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Remember yesterday I said that the time was after noon, and it hasn't come out yet? ”
While Leo was waiting boredly, the door behind Leo suddenly opened, and a woman in aqua blue casual clothes walked out.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. ”
Chrissy gave Leo an apologetic look in front of her, and when he saw her face, Leo lost his mind for a moment.
"Uh, it's okay, let's go. ”
It didn't take long for Leo to come to his senses and let her follow him.
"Well, okay. ”
She picked up the few luggage, but due to her relatively small strength, it was a bit of a struggle for her to pick it up, so Leo helped her carry the luggage by the way.
"I'm sorry, this shouldn't bother you. ”
She apologized to Leo again, and although she seemed quite polite, he was very bad at dealing with such a person. So, he's very troubled right now.
"Don't be so polite, I'm just a mercenary hired by your father, you can relax. ”
"How can this be, if it's too much trouble for you, won't I become a rich kid who relies on the shadow of my father? ”
Hearing Leo's words, she was a little unconvinced, reached out and took the luggage on Leo's back, and carried it with difficulty.
"Don't be willful, what is the difference between you and those rich children now, and you love to be strong, and you are so self-righteous. If you take it yourself, at your pace, we're going to slow down a lot, you know?"
Leo couldn't stand this woman's character, and after teaching her a lesson, he snatched her luggage, carried it on his back, and walked briskly down the street in front of him.
"Yes...... I'm sorry...... Ah, please wait. ”
When she was about to salute again, she couldn't help but shout when she saw Leo walking out of the city without her luggage after snatching her luggage. However, her shouting made Leo feel even more troublesome.
"It's ...... It was Miss Chrissy's voice. ”
"Ah, Miss Chrissy is there! on the street!"
"What...... Miss Chrissy!"
After she shouted that, the whole city boiled. Leo didn't think about leaving her alone, and after hearing her voice, he was ready to stop and wait for her.
But the current situation has made Leo helpless. He didn't expect that his escort target would be an extremely popular person, and yes, Chrissy's appearance would indeed make her popular. But why did she speak out that there were people everywhere, and she didn't know how to hide her whereabouts......?
"Alas...... , no way. ”
Leo now felt that she was really the daughter of the city lord, and she was just as ...... No brains. However, Leo couldn't help it, who told him to accept the task, and now he had to help her.
So, Leo followed the crowd and gradually entered the vicinity of Chrissy. Taking advantage of some of the clashes caused by the large number of people in Chrissy's vicinity, the crowd did not notice Chrissy now. So, Leo grabbed her hand.
"Ah, hello...... Who's holding my hand. ”
She was surrounded by a crowd of people, and countless people wanted to squeeze forward to talk to her, but there were so many people that as soon as they squeezed, the crowd was deformed. Later, because of the accident caused by the collision, everyone fought directly in the city. Just as she was trying to persuade those people, she felt as if her hand was being held by someone, and she suddenly turned her head.
"Shh......h Be quiet. ”
I saw that it was Leo who took her hand and motioned for her not to make a sound.
"Hmm. ”
Chrissy knew that Leo should be listened to at this time, after all, this situation was also self-inflicted. So, embarrassed to mess around anymore, I obeyed Leo's instructions and carefully followed Leo out of the crowd. When she came out, Chrissy wanted to thank Leo properly. However, Leo was afraid that her voice would cause another crowd just now, so he directly covered her mouth, picked her up, and ran out of the city quickly.
After running out of the city, Leo lets go of Chrissy and tells her to rest first. However, Chrissy blushed and did not dare to look at Leo.
"What's wrong?"
Leo saw that her face was flushed, as if to ask her what was the matter. However, her face seemed to turn even redder, and she directly lowered her head to prevent Leo from seeing her face.
"If it's okay, let's go first, we've been delaying a lot of time, and we need to speed up a little bit now. ”
Leo looked at the sun in the sky now, and it was no longer at noon. It seemed that because of what had just happened, they had wasted a lot of their time, so they began to urge her.
“…… Hey, okay, let's get going. ”
Since Chrissy hadn't usually had much contact with men, and the previous crowd hadn't approached her much, she wasn't nervous. However, Leo came out with her in his arms just now. So, she is very shy and overwhelmed now. So, now that she heard the words of departure, she wanted to get out of here.
"Alright, it's okay, let's go. ”
Leo felt that she was not quite right, but he didn't need to care about her, he was just her bodyguard anyway, and he wouldn't help her solve these problems...... Slow down...... He seems to be a shield. Other words...... Is he going to help her with her suitors? No, .......
Because, the place where the Demon Martial Academy is located is the most powerful city on the continent, the Holy City. Therefore, Leo and they don't need to find a route, just take the main road, and they can get there. However, because the city is surrounded by some dense woods, if Leo and the others want to reach the holy city, they need to get out of this forest first.
After the two of them walked into the nearby forest, about a dozen miles, it was getting dark, and Leo stopped Chrissy after seeing that it was getting dark.
"It's starting to get dark, and we'd better not go anymore at this point. Well...... , just this place, I'll prepare the camping tools first, you can walk around here, in short, don't bother me. ”
Leo walked around and found a suitable campsite nearby, and after putting his luggage down, he began to prepare camping tools here. Chrissy stayed where she was, though, not knowing what she was thinking.
"Please...... Please let me help. ”
Suddenly, Chrissy comes to Leo and asks him for her help.
"Can you help...... huh...... Yes, but do you have anything you know?"
I was a little skeptical that she could help herself, but she couldn't just let her bother herself, what should I do?, Leo pondered.
"Cooking, sewing, cleaning, I can do it all. ”
Chrissy saw Leo thinking, as if she was wondering what to do. So, Chrissy just said what she would do.
"Really, then you can go and clean up the camp for me. ”
After Chrissy spoke, Leo thought about it and thought that if it was just cleaning, nothing should happen. So, let her clean the camp.
"Okay. ”
Chrissy confidently assured Leo.
Soon, after her tidying up, the camp was really cleaned up by her. Leo was a little surprised, after all, it was really strange that one of her city lord's daughters could do such rough work as cleaning.
After Chrissy had tidied up the camp, Leo set up his tent in the camp and set up a campfire in the middle of the camp, and just like that, a simple camp was ready.
"That's it for today, huh...... Now it's time to eat. ”
Leo looked at the sky, and it was getting darker. So, he took out the food he had bought before leaving from his bag, took out the food in his bag, and gave some to Chrissy.
"It's just ordinary dry food, if you don't mind, please use it. ”
Leo stretched out his right hand, and the food was placed in Leo's hand.
"Okay. ”
Chrissy took the food from Leo's hand and ate it.
Leo was surprised to see that she did not dislike the dry food in her hand, and picked up the dry food and ate it bite by bite, but did not show it on her face, and still looked like she was eating the dry food in her hand.
"I didn't expect that you look like a lady, and you are quite able to endure hardships, which is really strange. ”
After eating, he couldn't help it a little and still said it.
"Lady......?"
Chrissy was a little confused and tilted her head to look at Leo.
"Actually, calling me a lady or something is so flattering to me. Moreover, eating these dry foods, there is nothing in the first place, and this is not ...... When I used to accompany my teacher...... Okay. ”
Chrissy replied to Leo very seriously, but her voice became quieter and quieter, and by the last sentence, Leo could not hear what she was saying.
"So, aren't you a girl scared in this dark forest?"
Although Leo was very curious about what he had just said, he was not afraid of this kind of place as a big man. However, she is a little girl, and she is still the kind of girl who looks very much like the eldest lady. Logically speaking, shouldn't girls be the kind of forest that is very afraid of the dark and of these many beasts......? It's so calm? It's kind of weird.
"Actually, I've been to this kind of place quite a few times in my college. In our college, the assessment is very strict, and many exams are practical exams, and the exam venues are basically this kind of place. After going through a few exams, I became less scared. Although, there is also my teacher'....... By the way, Mr. Leo, you said that you didn't go to the academy, so how do you cultivate to become able to beat my father?"
Chrissy remembered Leo's remarks that he had never attended the academy, and suddenly became very interested.
"It's nothing, it's just that I've cultivated it myself, and there's no reason to ....... ”
After answering Chrissy's question, Leo calmed down, is he strong...... So why do you have amnesia now, is it amazing...... So why are there many people who are stronger than him.
"Am I strong? Strong? What about being strong? I'm not missing my memory yet, and besides, there will never be a shortage of strong people in the world, I'm just an inconspicuous little person among them. ”
"At the end of the day, is it really that important to be a powerful and strong person? In that case, how nice it would be....... ”
Chrissy saw that he didn't look energetic, and she also calmed down. However, Leo's performance made Chrissy care about him even more. So, she was now watching Leo sitting on the dead wood and contemplative, and she was becoming more and more curious about Leo.
Leo remembered the things he had experienced when he didn't have these powers in his body, and his heart was very complicated. So, Leo now has a beautiful fantasy in his heart, which makes him have a little fantasy of expectation, instead of, dreaming .......
A professional who has never been to the academy has reached this level of strength that even the perverts in the academy can't reach. Moreover, he kept this reason secret, as if there was some amazing secret. These reasons are enough to make everyone curious, not to mention that Chrissy is a woman.
Therefore, Leo's appearance made a little gossip in her heart burn, and she became more and more eager to understand why Leo had such a powerful strength. After all, it is quite tempting for others to become stronger.
(Sorry, it's late)
