"Give me back my Lacey!" I raised my sword and slashed at the masked man in front of me. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The masked man didn't speak, his feet didn't move, he only flashed the broken sword slightly on his upper body, and at the same time quickly reached out and pointed at my right shoulder!

I felt a soreness in my right arm, and I couldn't hold the sword anymore - the sword was easily snatched away by the masked man -

"Ice Prism!" Stunned, Asa suddenly let out a shout at the masked man's feet, and a huge block of ice immediately appeared to wrap the masked man.

At the same time, there was also Asa at his feet!

"Asa!"

"I'm fine!" Wrapped in ice cubes, Asa smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry! This time it's solid! I've sealed him inside! Ha! ”

"I'll save you—" I didn't care about revenge, and hurriedly picked up the tomahawk that the orcs had just dropped.

"Don't!" Asa hurriedly stopped, "This ice cube of mine is going to be broken together, and the masked man can't be subdued if he escapes." ”

"Then you let it disappear, and I'll kill him immediately!"

"It's useless," Asa smiled helplessly, "this masked man is so powerful, he's going to kill us all the moment the ice disappears!" - Sakura, run away! ”

"Nope! No! I knelt in front of Asa, "I'm not leaving!" ”

"Let's go!" Asa shouted anxiously, "If you don't leave, the demon will recover, and it's over!" - And the kids over there! ”

Child?! Right! The priest over there might be able to help us!

I looked up hopefully - but my heart sank immediately.

Not far away, the priest who had been holding the shield of light to protect the children was still in a kneeling position, but the color of the golden shield had faded and was about to disappear, and the priest, whose face was pale from excessive blood loss, had closed his eyes tightly - the group of children were still clinging to the priest in fear.

And what about the Blue Devils? He was working hard to heal the badly wounded orcs.

"Asa...... What am I going to do? I looked down at him in disarray, "What should I do?!" ”

At least leave with that group of children.

But how could I leave Asa here alone?

"Sakura, you take those children first...... "Asa who was wrapped in ice pretended to be relaxed, "Don't worry!" I'm a genius ice cleaner! You take them away! Then I proceeded to wrap myself in the Ice Prism with the bastard masked man above - trust me! Those demons can't break my ice prism! ”

"But—"

"Hurry up! - It's only three days from the cathedral, and you go and bring the priesthood to save me!" Asa paused and added, "Digital Priest!" That little Luka can do the same! When the time comes, we will arrest this masked man and interrogate him together! Just go! ”

"Yes, I see."

I know, Asa he just doesn't want me to worry.

It takes at least six days to come and go, or even longer (because there is also a group of children to protect) how can he last so long?!

If I were alone, then I would definitely choose to die here with Asa.

If I'm alone......

But there is still a group of children waiting to be rescued.

Asa can only lie to me,

I can only lie to myself.

"Asa ......" I bit my lip in pain, finally making up my mind, "I will definitely be back!" Wait for me! ”

"Yes! Okay - ah! Wait a minute! ”

"Huh?"

"Hehe~ Sakura, you're leaving," Asa showed his classic lustful expression again, "Can you kiss me?" Don't kiss me on the forehead! Be sure to have lips! ”

"Asa...... You perverted ......" I couldn't help but start crying when I heard this indecent sentence, "You are so stupid! You're so stupid! It's silly......"

"Hey, hey! ――Agreed? Earn a lot! ”

I didn't answer, but leaned down with tears in my eyes, held Asana's face, which was full of enjoyment, with trembling hands, and leaned forward—

"Uhh

The sound of the flute shook us at the same time, and we hurriedly raised our eyes together.

Out of nowhere, two more masked men appeared, and they approached us with the same speed, and before I could stand up, they had already rushed to our side, and both of them stabbed at the ice prism at the same time - with a "snap", the ice prism shattered!

"It's not good—" Before Asa could finish speaking, the trapped masked man leaped up from the ice.

Gone.

They disappeared before our eyes!

No, it's not gone, I can still feel their breath, but I can't see them.

We can just feel them getting farther and farther away from us.

How can it be?

"How is that possible?!" Asa stood up in the same confusion, "That's how they left?!" ”

"Yes," I said, looking around blankly, "...... Are they gone? ”

"It seems so," Asa scratched his head in confusion, "and they didn't show up to kill?" ”

It's weird.

I picked up the sword that had fallen from the mask on the ground and tried to use it - it was so ordinary, I couldn't feel anything.

Blame, so what are they here for?

Yes! Could it be that the Hind Senses!

I jerked my head up to see Asa looking at me as well, and that look of certainty and shock told me that he was as I thought.

"You've thought of it too!"

"I thought about it too."

The Masked Man appeared when I was in danger.

- Could it be that they appeared just to save me?

Why?

"Well...... Sakura, why did they save you? ”

"I don't know......" I shook my head in confusion.

"Suspicion they're Orientals," Asa analyzed, ......, "the only thing you have in common...... Kindness...... Sakura, you're studying Oriental Taoism, could it have something to do with this? Is it that as long as they are Taoist magicians, they will not kill? Ahh He suddenly let out a loud cry and grabbed me head-on.

"Huh? What's wrong? What do you think of? ”

"Sakura! Have you forgotten?! Asa looked very serious.

"Huh? What the?! "I couldn't help but get nervous.

"We almost kissed just now, come on! Go on! After saying that, the bastard stretched out his mouth in disgust and approached-

"Get out!" I unceremoniously kicked him away, "Dead pervert!" ”

"Sakura, you just promised ......" Asa fell to the ground, with an expression of grievance and hurt in his heart.

"Did I say yes?" Thinking back to the scene just now, I couldn't help but feel a little blush, and I had to excuse myself, "I just held your face to look at it, and - when was you allowed to call your name directly?!" So intimately call people...... It's disgusting! ”

"Huh?" Asa was stunned for a moment, and explained embarrassedly, "The situation was critical just now, okay, I was wrong, Miss Sakura-"

"Forget it," I sighed, "you go and see the priest and the boys, and I'll deal with the Blue Devils—don't worry, I can still deal with a sister." ”

"Yes! Got it. ”

"Now, Asa," I hesitated, but said anyway, "later...... Just call me Sakura. ”

"Hehe, moved by my heroic performance just now?"

"Get out!"

。。。。。。。。。。。。。

"Hello!" I walked not far from the Blue Devil and greeted him with friendliness.

The Blue Devil didn't answer, still concentrating on the orc with the dark aura in his hand.

The orc gasped, his expression still painful, and the skin of his body was stenching and festering. The blood from the wounds stabbed by the masked man is gone. Looking at his current appearance, there should be no danger to his life.

――He must have been attacking me with the pain just now.

"Sakura! The priest is fine! Just fainted! Asa shouted from there.

Whew, I breathed a sigh of relief.

No one died.

That's great.

I hurriedly tore off the corner of my coat and drew a talisman on it, and I wanted to hand it over.

"Roar!" The orcs lying on the ground roared warily.

"Your name is Kano, isn't it? Mr. Carnot, I'm sorry to hurt you like this," I tried to communicate with him, "I added your burns...... Spells, which are difficult to eliminate in ordinary ways, can you try this? ”

"Why don't you kill us?" The blue devil put away the breath in his hand and asked.

"I don't know, well...... I just don't want anyone to die," I shook my head silently, "I don't want to even if it's you demons - and I don't feel like you're bloodthirsty demons - I don't feel that evil aura from you." After a pause, I hesitated and said, "Although you attacked the priest and the child, I think there must be some reason, right?" Can I please let you go? ”

"Thank you, kind young lady," the Blue Devil bowed to me slightly, and then hugged Kano to me, (though it was still the same expressionless face, but I could clearly feel his gratitude) "Please—may you please ask Asa to let my friend go?" ”

"Yes," I said, taping the talisman to the orc, and gestured to Asa.

Asa nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the ice that trapped the White Devil exploded instantly.

"Bastard!" The White Devil, who had broken free from the ice, rushed angrily towards Asa.

"Coconis!" The Blue Devil shouted to stop the White Devil, "Come back!" ”

"What?!" The White Devil named Coconis turned and flew back in surprise while pointing his gripper at me, "Why is she here?!" ”

"You just got sealed away, and you don't know that this young lady let us go," the Blue Devil reached out to stop Coconis who was about to rush up, and added, "She also saved Kano's life!" ”

"How could she?!" Coconis wanted to say more, but was stopped by the Blue Devils. Then the Blue Devil leaned over to look at Kano's wounds—

Due to the elimination of the original spell by the Dao Fu, Kano's wound recovered quickly.

"Thank you," the Blue Devil bowed to me.

"So- can you just leave it at that?" I asked, "You can be considered revenge for hurting the priest like that, right?" ”

"Forget it? What's the matter? Do you know what he did to us?! Coconis shouted angrily again.

"Coconis!" The Blue Devil reached out and pressed him, "Calm down!" If you do this again, we're all going to die here! - Ignoring Farmit?! ”

Coconis was stunned and quieted down.

"I'm sorry, kind young lady, we can give up, but ......" the Blue Devil raised his eyes to the god where Asa was and shouted, "Fammit! Famet! Come here! ――If you don't want to be with your companions, come here! ”

A little boy with short blue hair in the crowd desperately broke free from his companions' hands, stumbled towards us, and plunged into Coconis's arms.

How so?!

"Maybe you won't believe it," the Blue Devil pointed to Coconis, who was stroking the boy tenderly with his paws folded, "He's the child's stepfather. ”

"Stepfather?!" I cried out in amazement along with Asa as he approached.

"Ah, it's not a stepfather - because the child's mother wasn't married to Coconis, but Famit was raised by Coconis." The Blue Devil explained.

"How so?" Asa cried out, "This...... Coconis is so ugly, why does anyone still want it?! ”

"Hah! But he has a good heart! The green devil laughed, "It's true that we are demons, this young lady also said, we are not the kind of evil and bloodthirsty demons!" ”

"And what about Fammit's mother?" I asked.

"Killed."

"Killed?!"

"Yes! Because of their dealings with the demons, the adults in that village were all killed by that damn priest! The Blue Devil looked at the priest lying on the ground in the distance, and his tone was full of anger, "We just help them harvest their crops regularly, and they just treat us with livestock!" - He slaughtered the whole village! ”

"What a cruel ......"

"This ...... The church rules that trading with demons is a capital offense, and they're counted as -" Asa said helplessly.

"What is a capital offense? What did the church help that abandoned village? It's just a regular collection of money! Coconis on one side shouted angrily again, "The villagers don't want to pay, and the priest is - Nonia, Nonya...... My Nonia! ”

“……”

"Alright, let's not talk about it," the Blue Devil looked up at me as he soothed Coconis, "Actually, we also know that we shouldn't be with humans, it's just ...... Alas, good young lady, may we take Farmit away? His mother and the demons are in love, and if he is brought to church, he may be judged. ”

"......" knew that it shouldn't, but looking at the fatherly love of Coconis, and the boy Fahmit with tears on his face and a happy expression, I finally nodded.

"Thanks, excuse me, what's your name?" The Blue Devil bowed to me again and asked solemnly.

"Sakura, Sakura, Banston." I replied with the same solemnity.

"Sakura-san, thank you! - My name is Kokoloa! Coconis, Kano, let's go! With that, Cokoloa spread his cyan wings.

The orc Kano staggered to his feet, suddenly put his right hand on his chest, solemnly bowed to me, and then was picked up by Cokoloa, and walked away with Coconis, who was also holding Farmit.
