Chapter Seventy-Five: Escort
"I said, don't you eat? I haven't eaten for two days, and I can't walk. ”
At the beginning of the moon, on the streets of Danmo City, the two walked side by side.
"I promise, I'll give you a full meal when I get back." The taller of the two said.
"Oh? I was surprised that you still have the old tradition of having your last meal before you die. ”
"We don't have such a boring tradition, this comes from me personally, just think that you didn't resist and saved me some hands and feet."
"That's really thankful, are you really your face? Wouldn't it be a little too ordinary. ”
"What's the point of saying that."
These two are none other than Eichi and Kevin. Kageichi took Kevin bloodless in the magic array, Kevin didn't even make extra resistance, and then Keichi directly broke through the magic array. Hill didn't recognize Berg's guard, but he did recognize Keichi's mask, which was the most feared presence in the Peterson family besides Berg. It only took a short time for Keichi to explain the purpose of their trip, and he left Kerry Farm with Kevin, and the four men he had brought with him were not harmed in any real way, and their combat strength was not damaged in the slightest.
Kevin didn't understand how the other party found him, but he thought that since the incident happened, he should be very anxious, but he chose the slowest way to travel by land. His spirit seems to have returned to normal, but in fact, in just half a year, there have been several drastic changes, which is already a problem in itself. Just like at this point, he didn't look like a prisoner who was about to be sent to the execution ground, but talked to Keichi like he was chatting with a friend. Or he has rarely communicated with people in the past six months, and at this time he has spoken a lot.
"Whatever it is, since you found out that it was me, you should be able to know that I don't have any backup, let alone background, what value do I have, it's just a few potions, can Peterson see it?"
Shadow Yi naturally didn't wear a mask, at this time he had a square face, with a slight wrinkle at the corners of his eyes, and a cold expression that was free from entering the living, and his appearance couldn't match the first person in the secret power of the huge family, but like an ordinary guard. He shrugged his shoulders when he heard this.
"Who knows."
He didn't clamp back on Kevin's actions, seventy-two pairs of Kevin's body were engraved with a magic circle, he didn't use any magic at this time, plus he fed the poison of the shadow guard, he was just an ordinary person at the moment. The two of them chatted about extremely unnutritious topics without a word, and slowly walked through the city.

Forty-five walked through the streets, and although he took enough measures against Kevin, the other party made an amazing move after all, and I don't know if there are other hole cards. So the seemingly lax defense, in fact, the four of them are secretly vigilant. He couldn't understand the escort method chosen by Keichi, if he was sent back to the family directly by floating boat, he thought that Kevin had already been imprisoned in the dungeon at this time, and everything had already been explained. The explanation given by Keichi is that since he has already taken the person, it is best to keep a low profile, and he can also see if there are other forces involved. In his opinion, both of these reasons are somewhat untenable. He is a Berg bodyguard, and he has actually broken away from the leadership of Kageichi, but Kageichi's actions are not out of line, so he does not refute it.
The Shadow Guard has been around for a long time, and for such a family heavy weapon, the supervisor has always been the highest level, even the Shadow One, who is in charge of the Shadow Guard, actually has the Shadow Seven clamp internally. In this operation, Twenty-Four is the leader of the four people on the surface, but in fact, he is the decision-maker, of course, I don't know about this, after all, they have been separated from the Shadow Guard for a long time.
After leaving Kerry Farm, Forty-Five secretly gave the order that he would be behind Shadow One and Kevin, because of his extraordinary vision, he could lead the whole situation in the rear. Thirty-two has space props, on the left, seventy-two can lock Kevin's position through the magic array, on the right, and twenty-four is in front. Guarding an ordinary person who has lost his magical ability in this way is already an absolutely luxurious configuration.
Suddenly, Forty-Five felt an oncoming gaze. He followed his senses, and it was a middle-aged man, about forty years old, and his first impression was that he was clean, spotless robes, with extremely finely combed hair, and his beard was obviously well-groomed. When the two met their eyes, the other quickly looked away, as if they were just casually glancing. The distance between the two was not far from each other, and it took a few breaths to stagger each other. Forty-five's footsteps did not freeze in the slightest, although he had missed the figure, but in fact, his whole energy was on the other party, because the other party gave him a strange feeling, but did not cause a sense of danger.
"Not good!"
In just a split second, the middle-aged man completely disappeared from his perception, something that could not have happened. Because his ability is transcendent perception, and visual insight is only a symptom of this ability. He would never believe that the other party could easily disappear so close to him without using magic, let alone under his full attention. Reflexively, he looked back.
At this glance, he was even more surprised, because the other party was obviously in his sight, and at this time, as if he had not done anything, he was walking in the same direction as if he had done nothing. The next moment, his vision distorted, the straight path curved, and even the figure of the other party turned into a serpentine shape. This time, he sensed the fluctuation of mana, which came from behind him, in the direction he was originally going. He urged all the strength of his body, but he couldn't even turn around, he could only feel as if he was twisted.
"I've been tricked." That was his last thought, and then he lost consciousness.
————————————————————————————————
Eichi didn't know that Forty-Five had been ambushed, and he was still gossiping with Kevin at this time. Gradually, though, he sensed something was wrong. Finally, at some point, he reached out to stop Kevin, and he stopped. I don't know when there was no pedestrian around them.
It's not a deep alley, it's a bustling city, and it's impossible to have no one without it. What's even more bizarre is that he can't recall when the change occurred. Even if he didn't notice a decrease in pedestrians, at least the sound was changing, how could he not see a problem. It's as if one second they're still in the middle of the city, and the next they're in the middle of nowhere, which doesn't make sense at all.
As he pondered, a figure appeared on the other side of the quiet street, and all his doubts were solved. The shadow was gloomy to the extreme, and his upright face was flushed with iron.
"It's you."
