"At this time, should I say that it has been a long time. Miss Lilith www.biquge.info Pen %Fun %Pavilion. ”

Bert, a pale young man dressed in a swordsman's outfit, smiled weakly. As if he felt that his actions had won Lilith's trust, he intended to take another step towards Lilith's side. But she stopped drinking it right away.

"Please stop now! I don't trust you right now. ”

Bert's expression was a little dazed, but he still listened to Lilith's words and stopped in place.

"What's the matter, Miss Lilith...... Did something happen? ”

"If you want to know the situation, put your sword on the ground and kick it to my side."

"This request is inevitably a bit difficult for a strong man......"

Bert put on a very embarrassed expression, but in any case, his presence in such a place was too suspicious, and Lilith would not easily change her original intentions.

"Then there's nothing to talk about between us, 'Sagittarius'—"

"Wait! I see, just do as you say. ”

Still, Bert gave in, dropped his sword, and kicked it to Lilith with just the right amount of force. While paying attention to the other party's movements, making sure that there was no chance for him to sneak attack, she quickly picked up the sword on the ground.

"Huh?"

For a moment, there was a familiar feeling from the long sword, but when she wanted to find out what it was, she couldn't get any reaction from the long sword.

Is it a delusion?

"Miss Lilith, you can explain the situation to me now."

Bert's helpless voice interrupted her thoughts, and she held the sword in her right hand in a casual position, and she handed the torch to her left hand before facing the other person again.

"Don't you have anything you want to explain to me first?"

"What does that mean?"

"I've heard from someone that you're dead. And you're hiding in a cave now, isn't it a malicious intention? ”

Under Lilith's verbal attack, Bert's face seemed to be even paler. In response to her statement, he finally gave the following answer:

"Is that so-called person referring to Miss Lian?"

I have to say that his way of asking questions and answering questions is very ingenious and to the point. Trying to keep her expression as calm as possible, Lilith stood by her assertions.

"Although I don't know where you came to this conclusion. But you haven't answered my question head-on. ”

This was tantamount to confirming the other party's guess, but now Lilith couldn't think of a better way. Sure enough, when Bert heard her words, an expression of understanding appeared on his face.

"Well, for the sake of dispel suspicion, let me explain what happened after I was separated from Miss Lilith. At that time, in order to escape, we accidentally came to a demon mine in a panic. When incurring the attack of the low-level demons stationed in the mine, the previous high-level demons suddenly appeared, and after seriously injuring Miss Lian, they didn't attack us for some reason, but took her away directly.

After a lot of hard work to escape from the attack of the low-level demons, we found a cave while looking for a place to rest. I didn't know what kind of danger was hidden, so I came in with a relatively minor injury to see if I could find anything useful and a way to another place. Sheena and Dorov were badly injured and waited at the entrance to the cave.

Actually, I've been in the cave for a while, and I haven't found anything except some low-level bat-like magical beasts, but the sound of horses' hooves in the darkness reminds me of your astrology, Miss Lilith. In order not to expose myself, I extinguished the torch and followed the sound to investigate, only to find that it was exactly what I thought. ”

After listening to Bert's confession, Lilith compares it with what she remembered Lotus had said. It was found that the only thing that the two had in common was until the previous high-level demons appeared when they confronted the low-level demons in the mine. The rest of the content can be said to be very different. In order to further verify its authenticity, she asked again based on some information revealed in the other party's words.

"You mean that now Lian is already on the side of the demons?"

"Yes."

"You found this cave by accident and came in the other way?"

"Yes."

"Sheena and Dorov are really alive?"

"Yes."

Judging from this posture, the other party no longer intends to reveal superfluous information, and it seems that there is still a little bit of vigilance over there. However, judging from the current situation, the key to believing his words depends on whether the other two people in the team are really alive as he says. After all, Lilith was not arrogant enough to think that the demons would go to the trouble of setting up such a complicated game to deal with her, who was just an ordinary adventurer.

In order to verify this for himself, it seemed necessary to follow Bert's actions. And her remaining magical power is only used to maintain the existence of "Sagittarius", which can last for a long time. If it's just to prevent a sneak attack, it shouldn't be a problem.

So she decided to take a risk, and she asked the last thing for verification.

"Do you remember the consequences of your own molestion with Sister Lian?"

Probably because this question was a little unexpected, Bert was stunned for a moment before he smiled bitterly.

"How could I have forgotten that Miss Lian had poured two large glasses of fruit wine on my face in a place like a tavern where people came and went. If memory serves, one of them is yours, Miss Lilith. ”

With his words, the scene when the adventurer team first assembled seemed to come back to his eyes. At that time, no one imagined that this adventure would become synonymous with "self-indulgence".

Presumably, the master must be angry at others now.

Shaking her head to shake away the past phantom and the sight of being far away from this place, Lilith, who had received the answer she wanted, raised her sword and gestured to Bert.

"Let's go, take me to Sheena and Dorov to prove that you're not lying. I'll apologize to you then. ”

As if anticipating her actions, Bert sighed helplessly.

"I'll light the torch again, Miss Lilith?"

Lilith nodded slightly, and he took a few steps backwards from where he had been, crouched and groped for a moment on the ground under her gaze, picking up the torch that he had probably used earlier, relighting it, and turning and walking straight into the darkness.

This time, Lilith let "Sagittarius" follow her, and she personally monitored Bert's movements.

After a few more moments of wandering through the labyrinthine cavern, Lilith could already sense the wind that was clearly blowing in her face. The exit seems to be in sight.

"Is that you? Bert? Is there anyone else around you? ”

When he was about to reach his destination, a nervous voice was heard not far away. Bert glanced at Lilith and only spoke back after getting her permission.

"Yes, Sheena, it's me. What about Dorov? ”

"I'm next to her."

This time it was a calmer voice, but you could hear the weakness that was deliberately concealed.

"You don't have to be nervous, guess who's coming back with me."

Lilith didn't say anything about what he had said, but walked quickly forward and walked side by side with Bert. Then, when she connected with two other pairs of eyes that had become familiar during their brief shared adventures, the women of the two couldn't help but hide their faces and weep.

"Wow...... That's great...... Lilith, you're alive. ”

The male of the two nodded to her. The whole scene seemed to be a picture of a warm reunion, but she couldn't laugh when she looked at the two people with dark blue ore fragments scattered on their bodies.

Ordinary people who become in this state will basically face death immediately; Powerful adventurers can last longer because of their physical fitness, but they will eventually die. If it's an injury, it's serious.

At this time, she couldn't help but think of the young man named Antun who had stayed at the entrance of the cave on the other side of the cave with Lian, who had also been "eroded by magic" but had survived for some reason.
