Chapter 10: Surprised
…
Reece also tried to keep the other party, but until the end, he didn't do anything.
Maybe I don't want to admit the thoughts in my heart, maybe I don't want to leave a bad impression on the other party...
The silver-haired Lori finally left with her cat pet, no nostalgia, no hesitation, perhaps, in the eyes of the other party, he was just an insignificant stranger.
"Alas......"
Reese sighed, a thought of loss.
"Rustle..."
The sound of hurried footsteps came from not far away, and Reese reflexively raised his head, with an expectation on his face that he didn't even notice,
"Isn't... That girl, you're back?"
However, the huge gap between ideals and reality is not something that can be shortened by unnecessary expectations.
"Huh~ Reese, how's it going? What about Kerry? Alice, who had applied the light body technique, jumped into Reese's field of vision first and asked eagerly.
"Ahh Oh... That one... Carey is fine, just fainted, and will go to Miss Pastor for treatment in a moment. Seeing that it was not the figure he was expecting, Reece was disappointed, but immediately pointed to Carrey who was lying in the snow.
When Alice ran to check on her teammates' injuries, the elf girl Emily and the warrior Jack also arrived, and the adventure team finally gathered together again.
Seeing that Kerry was not seriously injured, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Captain? What's wrong with you, you look a little confused? Emily, who was outspoken, wondered.
"Huh? Oh, nothing, just thinking about something. Reese adjusted his expression and smiled.
After Emily's question, Reece came back to his senses.
He had already figured out that the reason why he had that special feeling was the result of the right time, place and people.
That charming and lovely, like the person in the painting, Lori is of course perfect, and it can almost be said that Reese has ever seen the most perfect woman in his life (although age and figure are hard injuries),
But it's just a head taller than those genetically well-groomed aristocratic ladies, and it's not enough to make him swoon.
The main reason is that it is due to himself.
From birth, Reese lived an aristocratic life of eating and drinking, and being pampered. Although he is the second son, the people in the Grand Duke's Mansion also respect and value him.
There have been several adventures before. But this time, it was the closest he came to death. If it weren't for that girl, God knows he'd be in the belly of that beast right now.
When he was rescued, the moment when his heart was the most vulnerable, when he saw the picturesque girl, the energy released by that chemical reaction was enough to make Reese, a guy who once disdained women, change his mentality and reshape his three views.
Now, he had completely calmed down, and although he still loved the girl, it was just a normal feeling for good things and benefactors.
After this battle, Reese is confident that he will never lose that proud composure again.
"Reese," Alice patted her brother on the shoulder, waking her mind to think about Reese alone, "how did you save Kerry from such a big beast?" ”
At the mention of these, Riston became interested, and he talked about it in a babbling manner, and finally let the team members understand what happened, but everyone's reaction was a little beyond his expectations.
"You mean, there was a silver-haired girl with a black cat who rescued you from the tigress's mouth and chased away the male tiger with Kerry in her mouth, and you just helped Kerry stop the bleeding, right?"
Alice summed up Reese's answer, reconfirmed.
"Yes, absolutely, in fact, I was just acting as a bait." Reece nodded, affirming his cousin's words.
"Well, assuming your head doesn't get water, then you're trying to say that all of this was done by a pretty girl who is not yet ten years old?"
Alice raised her arm, crossed her index finger over her left shoulder, and pointed behind her.
Following Alice's fingers, Reese looked behind her, and... The signature smile froze on his face.
"Uh..."
Under the sun, the depression formed by the two snow mounds seemed to have been cut by an earth dragon, the black soil under the snow was turned everywhere, and on the edge of the half-collapsed, cracked cavern, two bloody corpses were thrown on the ground like garbage—it was the White Tiger couple who attacked the adventure team.
"Flutter!"
"Bah-"
The crumbling rock at the top of the cave fell into a large chunk and made a loud noise, causing the little beast in the cave to scream.
For a while, the spirits of the five members were a little trance...
…
"Lily, why did you save those two humans? And after saving them, I said a few words and left, I... Feed! Who's that! Eavesdropping on it will take your ears off! ”
Luna reprimands Andy for eavesdropping, and only after he continues to lead the way does she look at Lillian, hoping for a reasonable explanation.
Lillian raised an eyebrow and said with an uncertain meaning, "I'm a little curious, Luna, what kind of affair do you have with humans... Actually, you want to know whether I am a friend or an enemy of mankind..."
"That's true, but if Lily thinks it's right, Luna won't object." The black cat wagged its tail and said with a wandering gaze.
"No objection?" There was something dangerous in Lilian's eyes, "That is... I don't support it anymore..."
"Mmmm!!mm It's so itchy!! Master, master, I'm joking, don't take it seriously~"
As soon as she sees that the limelight is not right, Luna throws away her temperance and begs for mercy.
"Hmph, you guy, you dare to have the mind of yang and yin, you are fat."
Lilian withdrew her hand and said lightly, "Humans, they are not our enemies..."
Luna's ears immediately drooped, but when she heard her master's next words, she picked herself up again;
"But they won't be my friends either!" The little girl's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold breath filled her body.
At this moment, Lori, who was made of pink makeup, seemed to have turned into a devouring giant beast, scaring Andy who was walking in front into a cold sweat.
Just when he thought that the little life he had earned in exchange for begging for mercy was about to be explained to the black cat's discord, the heavy breath immediately receded like a tide.
Lillian smiled, and the soft words sounded,
"However, the humans who are willing to obey orders are my best subordinates, just like Mr. Andy."
"Humph! Lily, you're biased, and Luna is also very obedient..."Luna said dissatisfiedly: "Besides, Lily, you took the topic away again, and you haven't explained to me why you saved those two people!" ”
"Saving people? Of course it's profitable; I saw that those two people had special insignia on them, as if they were from aristocratic families, so I made a move. If we can get involved with the elite class because of this, it will be of great help to the implementation of our plan! ”
Luna thought about it, a little understood, but a little unintelligible...
