"I won this duel."

With the declaration of Estes's victory, the great war between the strongest of the empire finally came to an end.

To everyone's surprise, it was clear that Javier had the advantage and was only one step away from victory, but he was inexplicably defeated by Estes.

What happened in that moment?

This is not only a question for onlookers, even Javier is not very sure where he lost, but the only thing that is certain is that Estes must have some kind of trick to hide.

"What did you do?"

Even if his body was pierced by sharp weapons and his life was held in the hands of others, Javier seemed to be completely unconcerned about these things, turned his head to look at Estes, and asked directly.

Estes smiled slightly, pulled out the ice sword that pierced Javier's chest, and quickly reached out a little, sealing the wound with the power of ice before the blood spurted out, and then replied: "I didn't do anything, it just froze the entire time and space." ”

“……”

Although he already had some conjectures, Javier couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he heard Estes say this.

Time stops—this is the realm of the gods, but this is the only way to explain the anomalies that have happened before.

You can do this, Estes...... This woman is really creepy.

Javier nodded, acknowledging his acceptance of the statement from the bottom of his heart, and then casually dispersed the elemental twin swords, and the azure points of light floated towards the sky burning with the setting sun like fireflies.

His mood is a little delicate right now.

I didn't expect that I would lose one day...... It's a novel experience.

There was a little unwillingness, but more of it was pleasure and excitement, and there seemed to be an inexplicable emotion burning in his chest.

He is Javier Salmondo, the son of the most prestigious shogun in the empire, who has an overwhelming power and few people are qualified to be his opponent.

At a young age, he ascended to the throne of the strongest in the empire and reached the pinnacle of military might—although this is a glorious enough thing, but for a warrior, it can't help but be a little unhappy.

It was the first time he had been beaten head-on – and he felt like the same mood he had felt years ago was back.

"Well, it can be considered my victory, right?" Estes confirmed with a smile.

"I'm not incompetent enough not to admit my failure." Javier said expressionlessly, "If it was a life-and-death fight, I would probably be dead by now, so there is no doubt that the victory in this duel will be yours." ”

Hearing Javier admit his defeat so calmly, the smile on Estes' face grew stronger.

"—Javier! Are you okay? Is the injury serious? ”

At this moment, a light golden figure suddenly rushed over, only to see Spia holding Javier's arm and glancing at the piercing wound on his chest, those azure pupils full of nervousness and concern.

Behind him, a group of falcons and hunters also walked over.

"What can I do? Don't worry. ”

Javier gently broke free of Spia's hands and clenched his fist and struck her on the head.

Because of Estes's help, the injury has been stabilized, but there is no need to rush to the medical hospital to bandage the wound.

Sibiya was in pain, glared at him angrily, and snorted: "What, it's rare that Miss Ben cares about you, and your kindness is not rewarded!" ”

"Thank you so much." Javier said insincerely.

Seleu stood on the side, his amber pupils staring at the scene of some intimacy in the fight, and his already low mood became more and more mired in the mire, unable to extricate himself.

Estes obviously saw something in Spiya's eyes, but instead of being hit, he looked at the two in front of him with an interesting expression, and at the same time guessed the relationship between them.

"Estes."

"Huh?"

Suddenly his name was called, Estes was stunned for a moment, and then quickly reacted, looking up at Javier.

"You should be more injured than me, don't you go to treatment?" Javier asked.

“…… Indeed, this injury needs to be dealt with. ”

Estes nodded slightly, as if accepting Javier's suggestion.

As can be seen from the scene where she vomited blood earlier, although she barely survived the blow of Javier's storm throwing gun, her body was also severely damaged at that time, and if it weren't for her killer weapon to win, it is impossible to tell who the losing side would be now.

"But before that, there's one more thing to do."

As she said this, a heartfelt smile appeared on her face, full of comfort and anticipation.

"According to the agreement between you and me, as a loser, you must unconditionally agree to my request, and now is the time for you to fulfill your promise."

At the mention of this, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became solemn again.

I went, and almost forgot that there was still this stubble!

A sense of foreboding rose in the hearts of Arrowen, Spiya and the others.

Javier was overconfident in his own strength, and he intended to use this bet to draw Estes into the camp of reformers, but intentionally or unintentionally ignored the possibility of his own defeat.

It should be said that this guy who has lived for twenty-two years and has been killing gods and Buddhas all the way didn't think he would lose at all!

However, the most embarrassing part is ...... He really lost.

If you lose, you have to face follow-up problems.

Frowning, Javier suddenly remembered what had happened the other day, and his stomach began to ache faintly.

This ...... It's really a bit of a bad thing......

But after all, it was a promise he made, and Javier didn't get too entangled, with an open-minded mentality, he simply said: "...... As long as I can do it, you can just ask. ”

Very satisfied with Javier's attitude at this time, Estes tapped his chin with his white fingers, and the corners of his mouth hooked a seductive arc with the flavor of a mature woman.

"Don't worry, I won't make unbelievable requests......"

said so, but her face showed an expression like that of a little devil, which was really unreassuring.

I saw a female general in a black and white military uniform suddenly approaching, stretched out her hands, caressed Javier's face, and looked at him very closely.

Everyone sensed that something was wrong, and even Liva, who had experienced strong winds and waves, showed obvious consternation.

This Estes's attitude towards Javier, who is neither a friend nor an enemy, has a somewhat ambiguous meaning, giving people the feeling that it is almost like ......

"There's only one thing I can hope for - I want you to be my lover for the next three months."

Her voice was extremely soft, but the content of her words was like thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts.
