CHAPTER XIV
She searched for the most important big manβ
The body of Saiya, the vice-priest from the Eternal Temple of the Kingdom of Itnaire and the future successor to the Lord Priest and the most important figure in the entire Western Continent, fell in the hall.
Blood was spilled all over the ground.
"What are the Itnerians going to think about all these things happening now?" The Ponytail Knight covered his face in pain, and his eyes looked at the corpses through his fingers, "Will they believe what is happening here, the unknown group of assassins, who have assassinated the mission from the temple?" β
"What can you think?" Jeud snorted coldly, his eyes becoming fierce, "Get ready, Kesaibella City, no, even the entire Sekorid Kingdom, is about to usher in a bloody storm." β
β¦β¦
The wind is howling.
Robin woke up from his dream, sweating profusely.
Again, the same thing was dreamed, but the face in the dream was still blurry, but it was very strangely merged with the dead Saiya.
Assassinations, blood, explosions, filled the entire dreamscape.
He gasped violently, but there was a warm soft touch in his hand.
Gail put his hand on the back of his hand and smiled.
The fire in the middle burned quietly, illuminating the faces of the two men red.
"It's okay, there's me." Gail laughed calmly.
In order to prevent being pursued by Sekorid or the previous Black-clad Assassins, Iyeta and Gail took turns keeping vigil.
Now Iyeta had fallen asleep, her head resting on her right hand, her breathing deep and steady.
It was a very difficult night's sleep, the dirt beneath his body was moist and uninhabited, and the crows wailed from time to time.
The wolf's voice rises and falls.
As if everything was fraught with danger.
The bonfire did not warm his heart, and the night was even colder.
But Gail's smile made him feel extra warm.
At least, after arriving in this world, she witnessed all kinds of betrayals and assassinations in less than half an hour, and the girl with a green face and an innocent smile in front of her, like her fiery red hair, became the only light in Robin's heart.
"Thank you." Robin smiled gratefully and withdrew his hand.
His left hand caressed the back of his hand, and there was still the residual warmth of the young woman on it.
Gail and Iyeta's armor was stripped to the ground, reflecting a reddish glow in the firelight.
The long white dress set off De Gail's face more and more beautifully.
This image is very different from the cold female warrior who used to be.
It was only now that Robin suddenly had a sense of recognition that the other party was originally a woman.
Gail smiled at him, signaling that Robin didn't care.
She calmly wiped the silver sword, and every now and then she looked up at the night sky.
The wailing of crows rang out all around.
There was a look of concern on the young girl's face.
"Are you worried about your companions?" Robin asked with concern.
In his common sense, crows eat the carrion of the exposed wilderness.
Gail shook his head, comforting himself, "The people of Sekorids should be able to bury their bodies properly, because they will not be able to escape the blame for this death." Not to mention ......"
At this point, she stopped talking, and paused for a few seconds before continuingβ
"And Heloise."
She let out a sigh, her eyes drooping, her long eyelashes glowing with the firelight, casting shadows on her fair cheeks.
Robin hesitated and took her hand with his backhand.
The other looked up and smiled gratefully.
The two looked at each other for about 5 seconds, and Robin was blushing and heartbeating at Gail's eyes.
"Ahh He retracted his hand in embarrassment and chuckled, "I didn't mean to...... Do you understand, I see you ......"
Oh my God, Robin thought to himself, what the hell was I thinking?
Gail blinked his large, turquoise eyes and looked at him suspiciously.
"Oh, yes." Robin digressed the subject, trying to ease the current embarrassment, "There's one thing I've always wanted to ask. β
"Huh?" Gail looked at him with wide eyes.
"The Chosen One, what is it?"
"The Chosen One?" Gail smiled brightly, his eyes extremely smart, "The Chosen One, or the Chosen One, is the most sacred being. β
She bent down and picked up a branch from the ground and held it in front of Robin's eyes, "Everything we have is given by the God of Life. She created everything in this world, She created life, She sowed the seeds of the tree of life into the world, She brought us health, happiness, food and rain...... She is in charge of all things in the world, and has entrusted the Divine Messenger to be her spokesperson in the world, so that she can carry out her will on earth, take care of the tree of life, and continue the blood of the kingdom. β
"Every kingdom has its own oracle, and every once in a certain time, when the oracle is nearing the end of his life or dies unexpectedly, the god of life will choose the next successor in the world, and the chief priest will receive his message through a special ceremony, and this successor is the chosen one.
The Chosen One will enter the temple and receive the legacy of the oracle. β
Hearing Gail's words, Robin finally got an idea.
"And I, we." Gale glanced at Iyeta on the ground and whispered, "Your guardians and faithful followers of God. β
At this, Gail suddenly remembered something, his whole body stiffened, and then he rolled over and knelt on one knee, one hand across his knees, the other hanging by his side, and bowed his head respectfully.
"I, Gail Fassbinder, am here to help."
Startled, Robin quickly crouched down and grabbed Gail's shoulders in a panic.
"Don't."
He frowned slightly, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "Don't kneel for anyone easily, because we are all equal." β
Gail was suddenly shaken.
"How can this be ......?"
"You get up first." Robin helped her up and shook her head, "At least, not in front of me." I don't like that. β
Gail pondered his words, then nodded slowly.
I don't know why, when Robin said this, a strange feeling quietly sprouted in her heart.
A faint shadow flashed in her brain.
