Act Twenty-One: Replenish the Magic
The summoning contract of the crown war is a bloodline contract built based on the blood of the summoner, this contract is unique and will not be replaced by other equivalent contracts, so the relationship between the Heroic Spirit and the summoner is one-to-one, and there will be no such thing as a Chosen One having two Heroic Spirits or two weaker people working together to summon a Heroic Spirit.

But since it is a bloodline contract, then similar bloodlines can naturally play a certain role in substitution.
In the final analysis, the fact that the participants in the Crown War would only produce among the five major families was itself a deliberate result, so Kalian's inference was not completely arbitrary without theoretical basis.
"But...... Replenish mana or something, do you want to ......?"
Langton has read some books about the means of replenishing mana, most of which are accompanied by blood and pain, and the other part is inextricably related to some indescribable behavior, after all, the so-called magic is actually the essence of life, and when it comes to the essence of life, it is natural to think of blood and some indescribable things.
"What are you thinking, although it is true that some unconventional means are required to directly replenish mana, but it is not so troublesome to simply provide a certain amount of mana to the Heroic Spirit. ”
Karen turned her face away and said in a reprimanding tone.
"You're just a channel of mana, the mana that this Heroic Spirit needs is provided by my mana glow, okay, don't be there, come over here." ”
Hearing Karen's words, Langton, who seemed a little lost, nodded, and followed Karenen to another room.
The method of replenishing mana is simple, using Langton's bloodline as a medium to transmit the power of one of the many mana glow crystals carried by Karen to the Heroic Spirit.
Of course, the mana replenished by this method is at most used as an activator to wake the girl up, and most of the mana supply to support the battle of the Heroic Spirit is still the crown war, and now that the master is restricted, it is almost impossible for her to want to fight.
It didn't take long for the girl, who had been replenished by her magic power, to slowly open her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Langton's face.
"Master Langton...... Huh?"
Then, she saw Karen, and the two Heroic Spirits behind her, and immediately became vigilant.
"Why are the Amadeus family here?"
She stepped back, until her back was against the cold wall, and she realized that she was on a bed.
The armor on her body has been removed by Karen's magical means, after all, the clothes on the Heroic Spirit's body are all made of magic, and when the opponent's magic power has been lost, even if Karen's desire to disarm a Heroic Spirit is quite simple.
"The magic on your body...... Wait, wait, what have you done to me!?"
The girl seemed to realize that something was wrong, and hurriedly covered her chest and asked anxiously.
"It's the same for this delusional character. ”
Karene shook her head and explained.
"I just provided enough magic to keep you moving for three days, and I didn't do anything else to you, and as for the rest, you can ask your young master Langton. ”
With that, she stood up and left the room with her spirit, apparently to give the girl a little time to adjust.
This guy seems to be unforgiving, but it's actually quite caring.
Rosen thought, then looked at the sober girl.
"So, can you explain why you're here?"
Rosen's own identity was already known to others, so he didn't say anything polite.
"And if you can, can you introduce yourself, at least give me a title. ”
He knew that it would be rude to inquire about the real names of other Heroic Spirits, but in this situation, Lawson felt that the other party had no choice.
"Mr. Alphonse, don't be so direct......"
Langton glanced at Lawson, although he knew that there was nothing wrong with his Heroic Spirit's statement except that it was too direct, but as a noble gentleman, basic etiquette for young girls was still needed.
"I see. ”
However, the girl didn't care about Lawson's attitude, but nodded slowly, and then spoke.
"The swordsman of my rank, the name ...... You can call me Ai Xue. ”
Heroic Girl, Ai Xue looked at Langton and continued.
"My master and I, your brother Noah, originally wanted to set up a defensive circle in an abandoned market in the south as a stronghold, but halfway through the arrangement, a large number of monsters suddenly appeared. ”
"The invasion of monsters? This is not uncommon in crown wars. ”
Langton rubbed his chin and thought, the demonic beasts in Andohal and its vicinity have a strong sense of territory, and generally do not take the initiative to attack certain places, if such a large-scale monster invasion occurs, it is likely to be dominated by others.
"Although there are many of these monsters, they are all rabble, and they were quickly dispersed under the joint efforts of my master and me, and the mutation happened at this time. ”
Ai Xue said, recalling the scene.
"Suddenly, a guy covered in black shadows appeared, his strength was quite strong, it only took a few moves to bypass my defenses, and directly attacked the master, and before he could react, the master was robbed by him. ”
According to Ai Xue's description, the other party seems to be a person who is also good at melee combat, and can hide his body, which makes him look more like an assassin.
"Then the supply of mana was cut off, and although there were not many monsters left, they were all quite vicious, and after I barely supported the slaughter of them, I had exhausted my mana power, and I could only find this place with a slight sense of perception. ”
After saying that, the girl bit her lip tightly, looking annoyed by her dereliction of duty.
"I had sworn to help my master, but it was so easy to be defeated...... I'm still not mature enough. ”
"It's not your fault, there are many suspicious things about this crown war, and no one can expect it. ”
Langton smiled softly, trying to ease Ai Xue's low mood.
"You just said that you were attacked by monsters, when did you know?"
Rosen spoke, and the other party did not seem to be disturbed by Rosen's skeletal appearance, but held his forehead and pondered for a moment before replying.
"It should have been morning, as we didn't waste much time as soon as we arrived at this half-plane and started searching for a suitable spot. ”
"Do you perceive forest fires?"
Questioning, Rosen remembered the big movement he made today, the appearance of the smoke billowing can be seen as long as you are not blind, it is a fairly common point in time.
"There seems to be a fire, but by the time I kill all those monsters, it's already afternoon, and what happened halfway, sorry, I probably didn't care. ”
Ai Xue replied, apparently unaware of the forest fires.
Rosen didn't speak, but pondered what the other party said.
From the perspective of time, when they were attacked by monsters, they met the berserker earlier than Lawson, and when the other party kidnapped Noah, leaving Ai Xue alone to fight the monsters, Lawson's side had just begun to fight.
In other words, the person who kidnapped Noah and the person who assassinated Gruul are most likely the same.
