The cold winter wind blew past An Jie's ears, and the messy ground made An Jie sure that she didn't lose ——— she didn't lose it.

In the city of Sunderland, Commodity Street.

Not to mention the bustle, at least there are many popular commercial streets that are not popular at this time............ No, there's another one.

"I'm talking about a little soldier! You see I'm just an insignificant homeless man begging on the streets! I'm okay with you going to crusade against that monster! But ........."

"Click!"

An Jie tidied up her rifle intentionally or unintentionally, and the safety opened and closed with a crisp "click" sound.

"It is the duty of every citizen of the Empire to protect the Empire! Go ahead! Little girl! Where are you going? Although I am a vagabond, I am also a vagabond of the Empire! ”

Mr. Tramp, who calls himself "Old Man", stands up straight and slaps his chest "thump"! It was as if he was not wearing a shabby patched linen coat, but a new shiny and straight military uniform!

"I just need you to lead the way! Nothing else is required for you to do! Including the constant noise in my ears that affects my work! ”

An Jie roared.

She was now under a steam car, carefully repairing the broken circuits. She did all sorts of things except for the street girl when she was in North County, and repairing the steam car didn't bother her.

At this time, nearly half an hour had passed since An Jie entered the city, and more than half an hour ago, when she was flying at a low altitude on the commercial street, she found the homeless man next to her, and got information from him that most of the citizens had taken refuge in the shelter.

This made An Jie breathe a sigh of relief, it is naturally good that the loss can be less!

In addition, there is also an unexpected news———— Mr. Tramp in front of him has seen the Earth Demon Beast pass by here at close range!

The girl immediately decided to kidnap him...... Ahh Call it to the glory of the Empire and let him lead the way for himself.

Mr. Tramp naturally refused! An Jie had just finished killing the Earth Demon Beast, and the smell of blood on her body was strong, and there were still a large number of coagulated blood clots on her clothes and face. The homeless man who had already mixed up with the human spirit naturally didn't dare to provoke this killing god who looked like he was easy to bully from the outside! And if you want him to go back to find that terrifying beast, it is better to let him die!

So he chose to slip away.

And then the eggs.

What method did An Jie use to capture him back Ren Jun imagined, in short, after being caught, he had an extra pair of shackles on his feet.

"Why do you have to lead the way? I've told you the way that monster is going! ”

"It's always faster to have someone lead the way!"

"It's dangerous there!"

"Peace of mind, if there is danger, the two of us will share it."

“………… Well, I want to go to the toilet. ”

"Right here, don't worry, I'm not interested in your three-inch nails"

"I protest! You are contempt for human rights! ”

"Homeless people have no human rights since ancient times!"

"You! ………………”

At this point in the conversation, the "old man" is really a little angry! "Even if you're a soldier! And young and promising! You can't insult someone else's personality like that! ”

"Oh? Tell me what you have done for the empire and for this society? ”

Pulling her body out from under the car, An Jie patted the already dirty military uniform, turned into the driver's seat, pulled out two wires from under the steering wheel, and began to tinker again.

"I .................."

The homeless man was silent for a long time before he said, "I didn't want to be a homeless man!" ”

An Jie sneered: "It's very selfish, your remarks~"

"Yes!" Mr. Tramp, who calls himself an "old man" and is actually not very old, is a little broken at this time.

"Maybe I haven't done anything for the Empire, and I haven't done anything for this society! Just keep begging, keep begging every day! But just being alive is hard enough! Who has time to think about what to do for others?!! People don't live for themselves! What to contribute if you can't eat enough! ”

The girl pouted: "Sure enough, you are very selfish." ”

"What's wrong with being selfish!"

The more I talked, the more excited I became, thinking of the experience I had encountered when begging over the years, and being looked down upon and spurned by others! He has a tendency to vomit bitterness!

But An Jie didn't let him continue.

"You're right, there's really nothing wrong with being selfish, and people live for themselves. You didn't volunteer to be a homeless person, you have your story. But why wasn't I "willing" to be a soldier? ”

Pausing the work in her hand, An Jie rubbed her temples, trying to relax her brain, which had consumed too much mental power.

"But the facts at hand are; You're a bum, and I'm a soldier. We're all unhappy with who we are now! But what can we do? ”

Picking up the two wires again, carefully docking them, a small spark appeared out of thin air and disappeared.

"We are all slaves of fate!"

"The only difference is that you blindly obeyed the arrangement of the 'master', and I .................."

"Boom ————"

The engine of the steam car began to sound restlessly, and the big toy that Anjie had managed to pick up from the ruins finally began to play its due role!

“……………… I chose to do my best to satisfy myself in the script that "Fate" arranged for me! ”

"Didn't 'fate' make me a soldier? All right! I'll just struggle to show it! The non-commissioned officer is just the beginning! I will be a lieutenant, a colonel, a general, and even a marshal! No, the marshal is not enough! ”

The girl gritted her back molars and swore viciously!

"I'm going to be the generalissimo of the military department! Let the world admire me, let history remember me! The so-called Protector of the Double Dragons will also have a seat for me! I'm going to make my name go through the ages! Then after death he said to Fate, 'Thank you! I had a great time! 'This is my ambition!' It's not a fucking dream! It's an ambition that must be realized! Must, need, want, realize!! Do you understand?!! ”

No, I don't understand.

The homeless man did not dare to say this.

Shouting out her thoughts loudly, An Jie was also a little panting.

"Sorry............"

She clutched her forehead, a tingling pain attacking her brain.

"Got you ............ joke"

"No, nothing ............"

"There's nothing wrong with being selfish, but there's always something worth giving up and pursuing............ Probably ......"

"For example?"

“………… The glory of the empire? ”

“………… I thought you would say love ......"

"Just kidding!"

"I'll never believe in love !! my life"

Perhaps it was the high-speed tactical analysis and the spiritual power consumption brought by the magic of steel that was too great, which made An Jie rarely spit out the thoughts in his heart.

She wasn't that kind of person.

But she knew that the cowardly, incompetent, and secretly weeping in her room when she failed had long since died in the endless darkness before she came here.

The darkness emptied his personality, and the turmoil of the nine years since his birth rebuilt her.

Cowardice turned into decisiveness, incompetence turned into all-rounder!

It's all about staying alive!

…… Including the fact that you can be brutal is also ......

It's not growth.

(I've changed from "me" to someone else...... ）

An Jie took a deep breath and sorted out her mood.

(But it doesn't matter!) Because the things to do are the same! ）

The girl's eyes were cold, and since the day she left the monastery, her determination for the future had never changed!

(Go straight down this path!) Kick out of the way if someone gets in the way! Kill if you don't repent! Wait until you die and regret what you did in life! If you are lucky enough not to die, then continue to live rampantly! A simple and arrogant life! This is the 'destiny' that belongs only to me and only ———— mine!! ）
