Chapter 69: A Hidden Secret

Although the nun dress on her body hides a lot of her beauty, it adds a bit of the temperament that belongs to the clergy, kind and gentle, as if she will be honest with you and tolerate everything about you.

Those blue eyes were also more pure than in previous years.

It's no longer the thin little girl she was at the beginning, Li Fang looked at the silhouette of Candace carefully closing the door, and sighed. Although there is not much difference in the age of the body, in fact, the age of the heart is a lot different, so Li Fang has always felt that he grew up watching Candace......

"Did you get rid of the demon last night?" Candace turned, her size just reaching Li Fang's chin, which was already considered a tall part of the height for a woman.

"Well, it's finally solved without danger, you came to me to ask this?"

If that's all it takes, you don't have to be in a place like this, right? What happened last night, many people should already know, when he came to duty this morning, Li Fang could feel a lot of other people's eyes, and everyone seemed to be a lot more enthusiastic about him.

"No, I want to confirm ......" Candace pursed her lips and hesitated, then said in an uncertain tone, "Do you think that demons have really existed since ancient times?" ”

Looking at Candace's eyes full of doubt, Li Fang felt that his brain suddenly crashed.

No, how could she ask that?

This is not something that a Rapoll nun would ask, and even the great swordsmen who frequently deal with demons would not doubt it. Li Fang can guarantee that Candace has not been out of La Baule all these years, how can she question something that has become a consensus among people.

Demons have existed since ancient times, lurking around people and feeding on human entrails. This is already the consensus of the vast majority of humanity on this continent.

"It should be like this, why do you suddenly ask this?" Li Fang carefully worded his words, trying to hide the waves in his heart.

"Some time ago I was commissioned by the bishop to sort through some books that were very old, and most of them were scattered," Candace said with distress, "and it was a very tedious and laborious task, and sometimes it took a few sentences per page to put it together correctly." It was in this process that I discovered that there were some books that were only fragments left, and that there were very different things. The fragments say that for a period of time, apart from disease and rare famine, people no longer had to worry about their lives being threatened. ”

"But every year we hear that many people die at the hands of demons, can't demons be considered a threat to people's lives? So I wondered and took the fragments to the bishop, but he couldn't explain it, only that there were demons when he was a child. ”

"Maybe the author of that book forgot to write it?" It turned out that her doubts were from ancient books, and Li Fang tried to explain them by coincidence.

"Don't you really know?" Candace was slightly disappointed, she sighed and said, "This is the only way to explain, the author of that book lives in a very peaceful environment and has never encountered a demon incident in his life. ”

She pulled the hair from her sideburns, and there was a hint of envy in her tone: "I'm so lucky." ”

…… It's not like that, it can only be said that people in this era are very unlucky.

More than 100 years earlier, there would have been no demons in this world.

The reason for this is very simple, the organization that constantly creates a big sword to kill demons is also the creator of demons!

And the history of the organization is not very long, just more than a hundred years.

"Why do you think I'll know about such a thing?" Reflecting on Candace's words, Li Fang was a little puzzled that she would ask herself so carefully.

"Because you're special," Candace smiled, in a tone that you were really dull, she raised her head slightly to look into Li Fang's eyes, "I've noticed a little bit since we first met, especially five years ago, and looking back, it's really still you who are the most 'suspicious'." ”

"This is one of the things I came to you today, you have been too noticeable lately, you should pay more attention in the future. Even if you are a soldier, you know that when you face demons, you can't do it to the same level as you. Sooner or later, more people will be suspicious of you, and if they find out that you have the ability to bring people back to life, no matter who wants to take you into their hands. ”

“…… Gegu and Xue Du also think that I did that thing five years ago? Li Fang didn't know what to say for a while, he had always thought that others might wonder why he had more speed and strength than ordinary people, and he never thought that Candace would be able to roughly confirm that he had other secrets.

"I haven't talked about it together, but I think they're a little aware of it." Candace looked at Li Fang's embarrassed expression and smiled like a child who had succeeded in a prank, "You don't have to worry, they are all very reliable people, not to mention that they have known each other for so many years." ”

Indeed, if it were the three of them, it would be okay to know that it was okay at all, but I was overreacting.

"Well, I'll pay more attention in the future." Li Fang said helplessly: "But this matter must not be mentioned to others again, every time I use that ability, it will cost a lot." ”

The cooldown time of the resurrection armor is particularly hurt, and now that the Northern Expedition is not far away, it can be said that one piece is one less.

"Well, this should have been done," Candace said, her voice suddenly carrying some inexplicable emotion, "You have already saved me at least twice, and I really don't know when this favor will be returned to you." ”

"Don't think about it, I don't need to repay anything, I'm a soldier, and it's my duty to protect you."

"I don't know if I'm going to call you generous or stupid." Candace shook her head and continued, "You know what? Gegu once told me that you were the strongest force to defend Rapoll. ”

"Since you are so generous, please protect our beautiful holy capital in the future!"

Candace said goodbye, turned around and opened the door, Li Fang saw her walking as if she was a little angry, and smiled bitterly in her heart.

Isn't it, do you really have feelings......

After finishing today's duty work easily and slightly boringly, enjoying the dusk scenery that seemed to be burning in the sky all the way, Li Fang returned to the store.

Annabelle had already prepared dinner, and as soon as Li Fang returned, she brought the food that had been hot out of the pot, and it was still so delicious.

During dinner, Li Fang had been hesitating to tell Anna that he wanted to leave Rapoll and brush up on more gold coins, after all, the current comfortable and peaceful life had made both of them a little reluctant to leave, and there seemed to be no reason to break this life that could be said to be very ideal. He thought about it for a day, but he couldn't think of a better reason.

It wasn't until after dark that an uninvited guest arrived and knocked on the closed door of the corner hut.
