The loud music faded away, and the guests who were crazy about the drunkenness gradually dispersed. In the current venue, except for a small number of guests who are still unsatisfied, only Hailiga and the others who have met old friends and reminisced so much that they have forgotten the time.

After the last separation, Laura began to practice the "Alseid-ryu" mystery - although it was extremely difficult, Laura thought it was worth it. However, this issue is not the most enthusiastic topic of the current trio.

"I see...... That's how it goes. After listening to the long story of what happened to Liber, Laura finally solved all the mysteries in her heart, "At that time, almost the entire southern part of the border with Liber was paralyzed. Within a few days, a large number of victims and tourists had come from there to seek refuge in Regram...... We were so busy for a while that we even canceled our practice. ”

"yes, the Ring of Radiance is too domineering."

"So, when all is over, where is the Arcana itself gone?" Laura noticed that there didn't seem to be any mention of this in the story that Heliga had just told.

"Well...... It seemed to have disappeared at the time. Heliga shrugged, "Kevin seems to have been paying attention to this as well, but he hasn't told me about the follow-up. ”

"You didn't tell me either...... Eighty percent of them haven't been found. I don't know if it's gone, or if it's ......" Fei pondered for a moment, "and was taken away by the association." ”

It is very likely that ...... "association" has endured this for ten years, and it is impossible to sit back and watch Wiseman's failure...... That being said, Wiseman's actions were a blatant betrayal after all...... As a punishment, he deliberately borrowed our hands to get rid of the traitor, and then took advantage of the gap between our battle and escape to take the "Ring of Radiance" and escape...... It's also very much like their way of doing things. ”

"Hmph...... This bunch of guys. Laura naturally snorted angrily at the "association", "Isn't that the 'Ring of Radiance' in their hands...... Very dangerous? ”

"yes...... So all governments are probably secretly alerting and deploying this situation at the moment...... But these things are not on the table. Heiliga nodded, "The national government is frightened by criminal organizations, and it is really humiliating to say such a thing...... But that threat cannot be ignored. Words of the Empire...... Not...... I'm afraid there will be some changes. ”

“…… I haven't seen you for a few months, have you grown in this area as well? Laura smiled self-deprecatingly, "Unfortunately, my father still occasionally says that I don't know the world...... In this way, the gap is ......"

"......" Helliga and Faye looked at each other, he didn't know what to say - did he have to tell Laura that he had relied on someone else to send him a plug-in to get to where he is today? Laura's hard work and persistence are in his eyes, and from Laura's point of view, it is a childhood sweetheart boy who just casually went outside twice, and made all his efforts seem worthless.

"Hey...... Sometimes when I'm around him, I feel a little bit of that way. Faye glanced at Helliga and said softly, "But then think about it...... That doesn't seem like a bad idea. ”

"Huh?" Laura was stunned.

"Because from the beginning to the end, I don't seem to be able to compete with him." Fei smiled, "As long as he is around, he will feel at ease; Even if the gap between them is getting bigger and bigger, he is still the same as before...... Although occasionally there are some out-of-the-ordinary actions that completely ignore the feelings of others. Fei gave Helliga a blank look, and the latter had to laugh and get by, "But all in all...... It is enough to have him by his side. There are some things that I don't really care about so much...... Too, right? ”

"Are you trying to persuade me to give up?"

"Of course not. But Laura, even you, must be able to see what makes him "different" from us ordinary humans by now, right? He has a strong place, but he is also given a special mission - and with it must be a heavy and completely unknown path. In that sense, I even think it's good for him to "let go" a little bit at times. ”

Laura didn't speak. Faye's words made her think—she began to think of the helpless voices and pleading for her father in those days when the hungry and cold people poured into the peaceful town of Regram like a tidal wave—after that, her father had to set up some temporary shelters near the town for them to live in, and on the other hand, he also needed to get enough food and water from the Duke's family from the layers of siege - because he needed to clean up the monster riots caused by the appearance of the "floating city", He had all sorts of troubles to deal with—and even in this case, his father took time out of his busy schedule without complaining and made a schedule for the next phase of his life.

All along, she seemed to be just a person who focused on the way of the sword - but from that moment on, she gradually understood the true responsibility of a nobleman, and the weight of that responsibility equal to glory.

"You don't have to call me so useless...... At least for now, I feel like I'm pretty relaxed. Heiliga said with a little disgruntle, "But ......"

He also fell into thought. He remembered what the Dragonborn had done—and what he had done to master it.

"Look?" Fei smiled and said, "So, Laura doesn't need to dwell on that kind of thing at all." People are different, and there is no point in paying too much attention to and entanglement with each other...... Just do your own thing. Isn't the purpose of your swordsmanship cultivation to work towards a truly good nobleman and swordsman until one day you can surpass that ...... "holy woman"? ”

"It's the Saint of the Gun. It's good to remember other people's titles. Heliga tapped Faye on the head.

"Hehe......" Looking at the extremely harmonious picture of the boy and girl in front of her, Laura felt that the tension in her heart disappeared a little - this is a happy moment for old friends to reunite, and she doesn't need to think about so many unhappy things.

Speaking of which, Laura...... As you mentioned, His Excellency Viscount Victor has spent a lot of time dealing with a large number of livelihood problems caused by the "phenomenon of cessation of conduction...... Then it is probably not only Ragram, but also the towns in and around the neighborhood that must have an impact to a greater or lesser extent. ”

"yes...... It seems to be similar in your house. Laura nodded, "Because we're close to the lake...... There were a lot of people who seemed to have come by boat. ”

"By the way, speaking of which—" Helika's eyes lit up, "Speaking of which, Your Highness mentioned that my father was also invited to this banquet...... But he didn't seem to be there. Do you know why, Laura? ”

“…… Sure enough, did you still ask about this? Laura let out a sigh of relief, "Although my father didn't specifically mention it to me, I have heard some rumors in the town...... Do you want to listen? ”

Looking at Laura's unprecedentedly cautious tone, a sense of foreboding surged in Heiliga's heart.
