51. I'm just here to sit
On the morning of the fifth day when someone leaves the Kingdom of the Rising Sun......
Bed in a hotel room......
……
Nightstar slowly opened his eyes.
"Forehead ......"
He subconsciously wanted to cover his severed head, but found that the movement of his hands seemed to be restricted.
After glancing at his surroundings in a daze, Nightstar realized that he was being held in someone's arms......
Ha?
What's going on?
Just as he was about to push the elf in front of him away, a tearing pain came from his head again.
Groove ......
How does it feel like you've been shot in the head?
Saying......
What the hell happened last night?
I'm drunk......
And then what?
Nightstar tries to retrieve the memories of last night, only to find that his mind is blank.
Just as he wanted to recall more carefully, a faint sharp pain made his brow furrow.
It's really X dog, and the degree of that barrel of fruit wine is not high?!
It's terrible......
Wait, what did Jerry say?
He......!!!
He gasped, and the pain caused Nightstar to grit his teeth.
It's sour......
It's more comfortable than being beaten up......
Swallowing his saliva, he struggled to look up at a sleeping face.
“……”
This guy will hold me for Mao?
Yo, and this kind of silly smile that makes people angry when they see it?
Could it be ......
"Whew...... Gloomy Male ...... I can't believe you're a fool...... Humph......"
The dreamy sound of Jimru interrupted Nightstar's thoughts......
“……”
The corners of Nightstar's forehead were bruised, and his head didn't seem to hurt so much......
……
After a few minutes, Nightstar stared straight ahead, speechless.
Why is this guy so powerful?!
How do you break free......
Should I slap her away?
Because Nightstar was embraced in Himru's arms, he was facing ...... at the moment
“……”
I was skeptical.
This guy ......
Is it a girl or not?
This is the same bust as a boy......
Could it be a pseudo-mother?!
Nightstar shuddered from his feet to his head.
Do you want...... To confirm?
“……”
After a moment of silence, Nightstar decisively gave up on this idiotic idea.
It's just that his eyes are still fixed on the front......
Suddenly, the whole bed trembled slightly.
“?”
Nightstar looked up in confusion......
He was greeted by a face of annoyance......
"Gloomy Male ......"
“……”
"Has anyone ever said that...... What you think will be written on your face? ”
“……”
"So, what do you mean by that look of doubt and pity?!"
“……”
In silence, Nightstar felt something approaching his face at high speed......
He stared at Jimru calmly, but in his mind he remembered a certain silver-haired girl who was submissive......
"Smack!"
……
More than ten minutes later, the living room on the first floor of the hostel.
Nightstar played with a strange card in his hand, not paying attention to the slightly reddened right cheek......
Across from him, Jimru covered her forehead with her swollen red left hand, as if she had been drunk last night......
"It hurts......"
Jimuru grumbled with a bitter face.
Nightstar glanced at her, "Hey, flat-chested elf." You hugged me last night for Mao? ”
Jimuru glanced up at him weakly, and a strange smile appeared on her face......
"! You laughing?! ”
"Hmph~"
"Hey, hey, hey! You guy even changed his tone! ”
“…… Hum. ”
"It's too late now! You don't say it! If you don't say anything, I'll take you out on the street and sell you! ”
Nightstar glared at Jimru with a sinister smile.
"Hmph."
Facing the hideous Night Star, Jimuru turned her head to the side with a pout......
……
Just as the night star was about to explode, Jerry came to them with breakfast.
He explained to Nightstar with a wry smile, "Big brother, you were too drunk last night. It was this elf sister who helped you back to your room...... But then you seem to be pulling her to prevent her from leaving......"
“……”
"And after I'm gone, your ...... Your shouting is coming from your room again......"
“……”
"Uh-huh! Sorry I'm talking too much! ”
“……”
Nightstar was stunned......
Wait a minute! Are you kid trying to be crooked?!
What the hell did I go crazy about last night?!
Why don't I remember anything?!
Nightstar looked at Jimuru on the other side with a strange expression, and was greeted only by a small tongue-outing grimace......
"Hmph."
Jimru snorted coldly and turned her head again......
Nightstar frowned slightly, and a feeling of memory loss lingered in his heart, making him very uncomfortable.
He gently cupped his forehead......
Wrong......
Why am I yelling?
What is it shouting about?
It always feels like I've forgotten something important......
Shaking his head, Nightstar looked back at Jerry.
It's just that his expression is not as gentle as yesterday......
"Hey...... Didn't you say yesterday that the wine was very low? A guy like me who can do a couple of bottles of spirits ......"
"Ahh That's right, that's right! ”
Jerry clenched his fists and clapped his palms as if he remembered something, but he looked a little weak......
“……”
Nightstar looked at him expressionlessly......
"Big brother, this capital city was sealed down last night! And the Adventurers' Guild has also entered the highest level of alert! ”
““!!!” ”
"I heard that it was because the kingdom was destroyed by Yan zhòng at the northern checkpoint of the Xiaopo Mountains, and the murderer may have entered this city......"
““……””
"Also, Prince Montece was seriously injured, and the enraged Xia Zuo Xià is looking for the murderer everywhere......"
““……””
Nightstar and Jimru's expressions were very calm......
After a few moments, Jerry's eyes lit up and he became a little excited.
"Big brother, listen to me! I happened to see the protector of the Kingdom of Kos in the distance today! ”
"Huh?"
Nightstar looked slightly interested.
Protector of the Kingdom of Kos......
It should be more powerful than the general of the Chaoyang Kingdom, right?
"Hmph, big brother, you shouldn't have seen him from other towns, right? He's a top king-level adventurer! There's even legendary gear! ”
“……”
Hearing Jerry's words, Nightstar's brow jumped.
It's not that he's surprised by this guy called Andre......
But......
No way!
The gap between the two countries is a bit big, right?!
The strongest in the Chaoyang Kingdom is a diamond level, and the strongest in the other Kos Kingdom is the "top" king level, which means that there are other king-level people in this country?
And what about the number of diamonds?!
The corners of Nightstar's mouth twitched slightly......
After a moment, he rubbed Jerry's head: "I said, do you kid admire that Andre very much?" ”
Jerry scratched his face wryly, seeming a little embarrassed: "Hehe...... Although Andrei is a little chubby, he is really strong! ”
Nightstar withdrew his hand, looking at him with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes......
Worship......
When I was a child, I tried to worship others......
"Big brother, let's dine first, I'm going out to shop...... Be careful if you go out, after all, the killer who destroyed the checkpoint may have already entered the city. ”
Jerry smiled and ran out.
……
Nightstar looked at Jerry's vanishing back, his brow furrowed slightly.
But soon, he was staring back at the strange card in his hand.
Jimuru casually picked up a loaf of bread and asked suspiciously, "Isn't this the card that the female warrior gave you that day?" What is written on it? ”
"Nothing ......"
Nightstar replied faintly, and then snatched the bread from her hand under Himru's disgruntled gaze.
"I'm going out today, so you don't have to come along......"
"Huh?"
Jimru looked a little surprised.
"Gloomy man, why have you suddenly become a gentleman?"
"Thinking too much, it's not your turn to play......"
"Huh? What do you mean? ”
“……”
“……”
……
At dusk......
The main base of the Yorick Mercenary Regiment......
……
A miniature bar inside the base was almost overcrowded with adventurers.
The noise mixed with the sounds of fighting made the neighborhood seem somewhat chaotic......
"Bump!"
After a muffled sound, two gold-level adventurers flew upside down into the crowd!
The resulting small commotion quickly subsided, and almost all the adventurers released their coercive aura.
“……”
They watched in silence as the slowly approaching figure came down on them as if they were facing a monster of unknown level.
……
The figure walked slowly to the counter.
After removing the hood, a gloomy face came into view......
The boy tapped lightly on the counter and pulled out a strange card from his pocket.
After placing the card in front of the bartender, he smacked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
"I said I was just here to sit down, don't come like those two stupid X's who just asked for a fee......"
