Act 41

Aine felt her heart pounding, and she had never been so nervous even when facing the powerful Chaos Monsters.

The scorching breath swept across her face, causing a burst of electricity to sweep through the girl's back, unconsciously trying to collapse into the other's arms.

Seeing that Rosen's face was getting closer and closer, Ain subconsciously closed his eyes, but in the gap between his eyes, he was spying on Rosen's every move.

She began to annoy that she had hurriedly changed into a long dress before she had even bathed, and she began to worry about whether her undeveloped body would disappoint the other party.

The young nobleman's movements were hard and gentle, and his face came close to Ain's feet, and then, subtly, missed her lips, and instead came to Ain's ear.

The warm breath swept over her earlobe, making Ain feel slightly soft, and she was still wondering what Rosen was going to do, when she heard a whisper in her ear.

"Don't move, behind you, there are enemies. ”

This sentence made Ain wake up immediately.

When is the enemy?

Ain obviously didn't perceive any traces of possible monsters behind him, why was Lawson able to perceive it?

Many questions came, and Ain felt more and more that the man in front of him had many secrets.

Lawson motioned to Ain with his eyes not to make a sound, and then slowly hugged Ain, as if he was about to knock her down.

The next moment, a silver light suddenly lit up on Rosen's cuffs, and the light shone brightly under the moon, and disappeared straight into the dark shadows.

Puff –

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh resounded in the room, followed by an indescribable low roar, and Rosen immediately took Al Yin in his arms behind him, took a step forward, picked up the empty wine bottle in his hand, and pounced.

Whew-

But there was nothing left there, only the shadows of the moonlight, ambiguous and hazy.

"Did you escape? ”

Rosen muttered to himself, leaning over and searching the ground for any traces he might have left behind.

"It's ......"

He had found a clue, but the trace was never supposed to be there in the area.

It was a faint silver-gray.

For a moment, Rosen seemed to have figured out a lot of things, but he was not sure.

"What is it?"

Ain's inquiry came from behind him, and Rosen shook his head and stood up.

"It's gone, it's hurt, it shouldn't come back for a while. ”

"No, I mean, why can you sense the existence of that monster. ”

Ain could only feel a trace of the aura of an unknown entity flickering when the other party was hit by Lawson's throwing knife and fled in a hurry, and then he couldn't notice anything.

"You can understand that I have a special talent. ”

Rosen said, falling into a brief moment of thought.

That monster is undoubtedly the monster that Queen Rivendell is talking about, and if Ain can't perceive the existence of the other party at all, it means that only the outsiders of this illusion, that is, Lawson and Tia, can perceive the monster.

Of course, on the other hand, the monster naturally knew about the existence of Lawson and Tia.

At the same time, Lawson can also know from the confrontation just now that the opponent's strength seems to have been suppressed, and it is only maintained at a normal level, as long as Lawson can attack the vital point, then the monster will also die, and the reason why it chose to sneak attack is also because of Aiin's strength.

After confirming this, Lawson will say that the other party will not attack a second time in a short time, because Ain has already taken precautions.

As for Tia, she is in the middle of the banquet, which can be said to be absolutely safe, and Rosen naturally does not have to worry.

"What the hell is that?"

Aine had palpitations, the absolute strength of the monster just now was not strong, even if Rosen's flying knife could make it retreat, but the ability to conceal its aura could make the bronze level Ain unconscious, such an ability, if it was placed on the assassin who specialized in assassination, then I am afraid that all the nobles would no longer be able to sleep in peace.

What's more, there is still the existence of a sage in this castle, and being able to commit crimes under the nose of a sage shows the horror and boldness of the other party.

"I actually came to this castle after tracking down this monster. ”

Rosen thought about it and didn't explain much.

"Our people have been fighting this monster from the abyss of chaos for generations, and only our people can clearly perceive the existence of this monster, and to everyone else, this monster is almost transparent and invisible. ”

He said vaguely, not expecting Ain to be completely convinced.

"This kind of monster should be only one in this castle at the moment, but it can disguise itself as someone else, so it is very difficult to guard against. ”

"Disguised as someone else......

Ain pondered Rosen's words repeatedly.

She didn't care about those families and the like, since Rosen didn't want to say it, then naturally he had his reasons, and now Ain only knew that the monster was obviously hostile to them, so Lawson, who was able to search for the monster, was an existence worthy of her trust.

"Teacher, it shouldn't be possible, no one can disguise the momentum of the sages, and it is difficult to go above the silver level, because there are laws and prohibitions of the sages here, and a slight difference will be discovered. ”

What Ain is talking about is the prohibition that the people of order will set up in castles and strongholds in this era, and can identify a law that exists above the silver level, if there is a slight difference, then that person will be locked immediately, and it will be difficult to fly, which is also one of the defense methods developed by the people of chaos on the side of order after many times in the past disguised as important people to infiltrate and destroy.

Because each person's stigma is unique, this method can accurately identify friend and foe, and for those below the silver level, although it is difficult to prevent, it is limited in strength and cannot cause much damage.

"There are so many bronze steps in the castle, and if you want to find them, it's really a needle in a haystack. ”

"I can only detect it when the other party is showing hostility, and I need more clues to find the disguise of that monster. ”

Rosen said that he already had some speculation in mind, and now it was more about finding evidence to confirm that guess.

Because the answer is so out-of-the-box, Rosen himself can't believe it.

"Speaking ......"

The two discussed for a while, and after roughly clarifying the next countermeasures, in a short silence, Rosen remembered the state of the two in the previous room.

He looked at Ai Yin, although the girl was a little flustered because of the sudden change, her cheeks were still slightly red, and the skirt on her body was a little messy because of the commotion just now, revealing her fair skin, which was usually difficult to see, and it became extremely attractive at this moment.

"What happened just now was that I didn't think it through. ”

He said that just now Rosen was also infected by the ambiguous atmosphere, so he did something that he would not normally do, and in his heart, for Ain Grancher, there is only respect and regret, and there is absolutely no thought of it.

Well, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that.

"Oh, no, no......"

Ain was caught off guard by Rosen's sudden turn, and her face was flushed, showing the shyness of a girl.

There was a moment of silence as Ain peeked at the side of Lawson's face, his hands tightening and relaxing at the corners of his skirt.

Then, as if to finally muster up the courage, Ain said.

"It's strange, we haven't seen each other a few times, but why, I always think you're someone who can reassure me. ”

"Maybe this is the call of fate?"

Rosen also didn't understand why Ain, who was supposed to have crossed paths with him in the distant future, would have a good impression of himself at this moment, so he could only answer half-jokingly.

"Well, then, sometimes fate doesn't just bother people. ”

Ai Yin said, showing a dizzying smile, then looked up, saw the clear moonlight, hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly, as if inadvertently.

"The moonlight is so beautiful. ”
