Chapter 22: The Banner of Sincerity
At night, Firena lay on the stone bed with the head secretary in her arms, a small bed that could only accommodate one person, and at her request, the head secretary waved two knives at will, and the original uneven stone bed was enlarged and flattened. It made Firena feel in vain how humiliating the bed she had tossed for an afternoon and worked so hard to make.
Even though it was only a body made of magic, Firena felt warmth and softness while holding the head office.
Originally, the general director was still a little resistant, and wanted to disappear in the name of patrolling, but was told by Firena: "Don't you keep your heart and eye skills?" You can feel the danger right away, and staying by the Master's side is not the greatest protection? As for Shakespeare, Firena said that he could do whatever he liked, as long as he didn't make any big news, after all, it was better to see a lovely girl than an uncle who was as annoying as a fly.
"That...... masterγ Soji Okita twisted his body that was hugged by Firena, and said worriedly, "Do you really want to act with me tomorrow?" β
Feeling the head secretary next to him break free slightly, Firena's hands wrapped around the head director's arm again and asked, "Yes, I can reach your current level through Shakespeare's enchantment." After speaking, he showed his lower biceps and said, "Don't underestimate me, I'm very strong!" β
"Uh, master." Looking at Firena's thin arms and thin legs, the chief secretary scratched his cheek and said embarrassedly: "Master, it's not that I said it ugly, but your posture with a sword is unstable, your steps are messy when you move, and your moves are disorderly, and the most important thing is that you are often hesitant. According to the following opinion, master, you are not a martial arts material at all! β
At this time, Firena lay on the stone bed, and every word of Okita Soji was stuck in her heart like a sharp arrow, and after the last sentence of the Soji General, Firena's heart was ready to die. Saying this is completely degrading her to nothing!
"Enough, hey! Anyway, I've also tackled three copies, and I've experienced nine deaths and a lifetime. Is it as unbearable as you say! Straightening the head of the general secretary and looking into her eyes, Firena said angrily: "And can you give me a face!" β
Looking into Firena's eyes, the head secretary broke her hands apart and said solemnly, "Master, I'm telling the truth. The battlefield is not child's play, and you may have been lucky enough to avoid disaster the first few times, but no one can be sure that you will be as lucky as you were before next time. β
"As far as I know, Master, you almost died in that copy last time." Turning over and kneeling beside Firena, he clenched her hands, and the head secretary's pale golden pupils looked at her and said lightly: "We Servants are all dead, even if we die, as long as you are lucky enough, you can summon them again." But you are different, your death is real, and if you die, then we will not be able to survive in this world. So master, think again. β
Seeing that Firena was lost in thought, the chief secretary stepped down from the stone bed and said as he exited the cave, "Master, I did not look down on you, but because you should have used us as commanders, not as generals to kill the enemy with us. β
With that, the spirit disappeared into the cave, leaving Firena alone, staring blankly at the top of the cave.
In a forest not far from the cave, a burst of golden light appeared, and the figure of Okita Soji appeared next to a giant tree and shouted: "Caster, come out!" β
"Beautiful little girl, I don't know what is the purpose of bringing my generation here without guarding the safety of the master late at night! I am a very upright gentleman. Shakespeare, speaking a slightly flirtatious voice, appeared behind Okita Soji.
A cold light flashed, and the begging light in the head of the director's hand appeared at Shakespeare's throat. The tip of the sword pierced the skin, and a drop of blood dripped to the ground along the begging light.
"Oh, it's not what a girl is supposed to do to wield a sword at will!" After saying that, he took half a step back, glanced at the blade of the head secretary to the side, and said, "Let me tell you slowly!" β
The night light is still so quiet, and from time to time there is a beast roar in the distance, Okita and Shakespeare did not talk long before they separated to protect their master, but because of Okita Soji's words, this night Firena was destined to sleepless.
The next morning.
"Master, it's time to get up!" The Director-General appeared beside Firena, calling in a low voice.
"Well, I see, let me sleep a little longer." In response, Firena turned and fell asleep again.
"Master, it's time to get up for breakfast!" Seeing that Firena was unconscious, the chief secretary shook her body.
Feeling someone shaking her body, Firena sat up in a daze, subconsciously opened her arms, and then felt a pair of hands work up and down her body, and when she realized that something was wrong and opened her eyes, the head secretary had already brought breakfast in front of her.
"I didn't expect you to have such a virtuous side!" Eating a simple breakfast, Firena couldn't help but sigh.
"Because you're really cute, Master, like those kids next door who aren't afraid of me, ah! I'm definitely not saying master, you're like a child! Even now, I'm a child! The Director-General turned red after hearing Firena's words, and spoke incoherently.
"Alright, Director-General! Don't be explaining, I'm a kid now. After finishing breakfast, Firena looked at the cute appearance of the director, picked up her crutches and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go and re-attack that copy." β
"Master, I don't know what I proposed last night......
As Firena walked to the door, the Director-General questioned her behind her.
Holding Spartacus's short sword in his hand, he carefully stroked the pattern on the blade, and said with a smile: "Eh, I have thought about it, maybe I can command you as a commander in the future, but for now, please allow me to contribute as a deputy on the side." β
Okita Soji, who originally wanted to say something to dissuade him, nodded helplessly after seeing her resolute expression, and said with a curl of the dull hair on his head, "I know, master." The place where the master goes, no matter the ends of the earth, even if my short life is burned out, it will accompany you to the end of the underworld! Please remember to hide behind me if you think you are in danger, and as long as my life is burning, then my sword will be your sword! β
Looking at the dumb hair on the head of the general director, Firena walked up to the general director with bright eyes, completely ignoring the height difference between herself and the general director, climbed on the shoulders of the general director and teased the stupid hair on her head, and said happily in her heart: "Hey, don't worry." I'm sure I'm not going to drag you down. β
βMaβ¦β¦ masterοΌ What the hell are you doing? β
The stupid hair on the top of the head of the head of the head of the head was played with by Firena, and her face turned red instantly, wanting to break free, but she was afraid that her master would be hurt, so she could only look at Firena helplessly, hoping that she would stop this kind of teasing behavior as soon as possible.
"Ahem."
An inopportune voice interrupted Firena's curiosity about the dull hair, and then she turned her head and glared at Shakespeare standing at the mouth of the cave, giving up the idea of continuing to play tricks on the Director-General, and slid off her body. When the Director-General saw Shakespeare, it was as if he had seen a savior, and after Firena got off her, he moved to the rear of Shakespeare, and was teased by Firena.
Completely ignoring the roll of Firena's eyes, Shakespeare shrugged and said, "Master, it's time to go." β
"Hmph."
As she walked past Shakespeare, she struck him the leg with her cane, and Shakespeare suddenly showed an expression of almost dying of pain, ignoring Shakespeare's showmanship, and Felena said, "Sa, let's go!" Go for revenge! β
"Oh!" The Director-General and Shakespeare chimed in.
The purple moon still hung silently in the sky, but the light sprinkled was better than ever, the dense woods blocked people's detection, and after a twist, Firena and her group appeared not far from the escape circle.
"Every time I come here, it's an incredible feeling!" Shakespeare couldn't help but sigh as he looked at his surroundings, but when he saw that what he said was met with the roll of Firena's eyes, Shakespeare couldn't help but laugh dryly, and he remembered that the first time he was because of his loud speech that attracted the monster attack.
"Hahaha, didn't you get attacked last time, I guess as long as we don't get into the attack range of those monsters, they won't attack......"
Before Shakespeare could finish his defense, an arrow shot at Firena like a venomous snake. However, before the arrow could fly in front of her, a sword light flashed, and the arrow was split in half by a sharp katana like a split, and Okita Soji shrank to the ground, moved in front of the monster, and then raised the knife in his hand, and after a burst of blood, there was an additional human-like corpse on the ground.
After seeing the corpse on the ground, Firena relieved herself from her fear, then pulled out her short sword and looked around vigilantly. And Okita Soji, who retreated to the side of Firena's voice, said in a low voice: "Master, be careful and protect yourself!" Remember, don't go into the forest alone! β
"Okay, I'll have Shakespeare on the sidelines, as well as the Director-General." Firena looked at the corpse lying on the ground in the distance and said: "The monster of this copy is different from the last time, I don't know if the final boss will be the demon, you should be careful." β
"Leave it to me, master!" After saying that, he easily put aside the flying arrows again and said, "I will definitely bring you victory!" β
After that, he summoned Haori, and Okita Soji, who was wearing a Shinsengumi work uniform, pulled out Kikuichi Monori and disappeared to Firena's side again, and when she reappeared, there was another corpse on the ground, and with each appearance and disappearance of Okita Soji, there was always an extra corpse on the ground with a fatal knife.
"Master, can you allow me to use the Noble Phantasm? This is too inefficient to kill enemies. She appeared next to Firena, and with the bow she had shot at her, she asked for her advice.
"Of course there is no problem, this is the other world, you can use it boldly! No need to worry about my condition. Holding her dagger, Firena agreed with the Director-General.
After receiving the desired answer, the Director-General nodded at Firena and rushed to the edge of the forest. There, the head office took out a Shinsengumi flag marked with the word "Makoto", knelt on the ground, and planted it at the edge of the forest.
"I know that I'm just a half-ass, and I didn't accompany everyone until the last minute. The half-hung team members are not qualified to raise this flag, but the word "sincerity" engraved in their hearts is only that, only that is the truth that belongs to me without falsehood, so, everyone, if you hear my call, please show up here! β
"Yo~! Director-General, I've kept you waiting! β
"Hahaha, Chief Executive, stand up and cut everything down~!"
"Shinsengumi, here!" *N
In response to the call of the general secretary Okita, a large number of Shinsengumi members appeared under the word "Makoto".
