"Miss, it's a tourist in the store. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Although Morris tried his best to control his voice, he still seemed a little stiff, but fortunately, the other party seemed to get used to his personality and did not show any embarrassing behavior.

"Isn't Elvis here yet?" Nodding politely to Ryan and his party, Sophia asked Morris with some disappointment in her eyes.

"Not yet."

Morris knew that with that high-level warrior intervening, I was afraid that the Purple Dragon Knight would now be dead. But he didn't tell the girl, after all, he also hoped that Elvis would come out alive.

Seeing that Sophia's guards were quite numerous, Ryan hesitated and led everyone to rest not far away. Although Morris is only a sword master who has just stepped into the high ranks, his strength is at least much stronger than his own side, and with them, if those robbers catch up, Ryan will have a much greater time and chance to escape.

Silently glanced at Ryan, who stopped not far away, although Morris knew this, but he had no intention of driving him away. As a member of the regular Cormier Army, helping the weak was an education he received from an early age.

The drizzling rain gradually subsided, and without the sound of raindrops lapping the leaves, the shouts and screams in the distance became more and more obvious.

A carriage stumbled through the muddy woodland, and in a short time it was already where everyone was resting.

"Elvis?!" Sophia saw the familiar carriage driving into sight, and immediately exclaimed with surprise on her face. Seeing that she seemed to want to rush forward, Morris stopped in front of her: "Miss, be careful." ”

"Yo, you're really making it easy for me to find! Quick, while the robbers haven't caught up, we'll leave quickly. The halfling stood in the carriage and waved at Ryan, as if he didn't see Sophia and the others getting closer.

"Your Excellency, I'm afraid this carriage doesn't belong to you, does it?" Maurice tightened the long sword at his waist, his face covered with frost.

"I can't bear to let such a good horse fall into the hands of robbers, it has a relationship with me, so I will take it away, is there a problem?"

Teacher, can't you see that people are holding people accountable? Seeing Philip's innocent face, Ryan could only helplessly hold his forehead.

"This is our carriage!" Sophia stepped forward at this time and looked at the halfling in front of her, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Really? That's a coincidence. Philip didn't look surprised, obviously he already knew about it, "Otherwise, our carriage is still in the inn, and it will be given to you, don't thank me." ”

"Do you want us to go back and die?" Morris's voice grew deeper and deeper, and his fingers clenching the long sword trembled slightly, obviously angry.

"Oh? So what do you want to do? Philip's tone gradually changed, and the smell of gunpowder gradually diffused with swords against Maimang.

Seeing that the conversation between the two was about to turn into a battle, Ryan let out a long sigh and finally stood up: "If you still want to get out alive, you'd better put your weapons back." ”

"He's the one who stirs the trouble, I don't want to die here." Philip, of course, understood what Ryan meant, and took back his dagger with a grin, as if he didn't care about you.

"Maurice!" The upright Sword Master was no match for a halfling in the battle of words, and he was almost so angry that he almost gritted his teeth, and seeing that he couldn't contain his anger, Sophia shouted, and finally let him retreat.

"Your Excellency, I wonder if you saw a purple dragon knight when you left?" Sophia didn't dwell on the question of the ownership of the carriage like Morris, but was more concerned about Elvis's situation, which had to make Ryan look up to her.

"Purple Dragon Knight? I remember him, he was a noble warrior. Thinking of the previous battle between Elvis and Conrad, a hint of admiration appeared in Philip's eyes.

"And he's now?"

"I'm sorry, I can't save him." Surprisingly, Philip made a standard silent salute to Sophia with a heavy face. Even without a positive answer, Sophia understood what he meant, and the girl's face suddenly became extremely pale, and crystal waves gradually appeared in her eyes.

"The robbers will catch up soon, and if you don't mind, we can hit the road together." Ryan glanced at Philip and walked over to Sophia's side.

"Really, really?"

"Of course, this is your property after all, my teacher was indeed a little rude just now, and I apologize to you on his behalf." Bowing slightly, Ryan took the lead and stepped into the carriage, and when he saw that the girl was still stunned, he waved at her.

"Teacher? Hehe, it looks like I'm here at the right time. Sophia was hesitating to accept Ryan's help when a cold female voice suddenly came from above. Everyone was startled, and hurriedly looked up, only to see a black figure sitting on a branch with his back against the trunk of the tree, one foot constantly dangling in the air, and the leisurely appearance seemed to be on vacation.

"How is that possible?!" Philip's face instantly lost its former composure, and his eyes were wide with incredulity.

Seeing Philip's exaggerated expression, Ryan's heart began to become a little heavy, and he asked the human woman above who was all black, "Who are you?" ”

"Little one, you might as well ask the little man next to you about this." The woman chuckled and focused all her attention on Philip.

"Aren't you afraid that I'll expose your old bottom?" After the initial stunned, Philip quickly regained his composure, but the tension in his stern face could still be felt.

Knowing an elderly halfling but still remaining young, so that the wanderer who is only one foot away from the door is a master is so cautious, this woman should be a master, even, a legend!

"The darkness has been silent for too long, and the world should know the name of the Mother of Night!"

Mother of the Night? Dark Brotherhood?! Ryan was shocked, and looked at the woman above in disbelief, and what surprised him even more was that his teacher was actually related to this terrifying organization!

"It has nothing to do with me, Cecilia, you'd better stay out of my way." Philip silently grasped the short sword at his waist, his sharp gaze like the tip of a sharp blade.

"Old man, you should be glad that your name is not on my list, but you will become a mentor to mankind, haha! What a joke! The appearance of the woman covering her mouth and chuckling had a strange charm, and the men present couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Let's go." Seeing that the other party did not stop his intentions, Philip quietly breathed a sigh of relief, beckoned to everyone, waved his horsewhip, and drove into the distance.

"Philip, miss Rise of Darkness, you will regret it for the rest of your life!" The woman's voice came from afar, and everyone seemed to be pressed against the throat by the sword blade, and the cold feeling kept coming from the soles of their feet.

"Teacher...

"I'll tell you when I have a chance later, we need to get out of this place as a matter of urgency." Looking at Ryan's curious appearance, how could Philip not guess his thoughts, stretched out his hand to stop his inquiry, and whispered.

Since Philip had said so, Ryan didn't delve into it, everyone had the right to keep their own secrets, and he didn't want his relationship with the halfling to be affected because of this. Turning her head, Sophia was looking through the window in the direction of the inn, a small piece of the sky behind her dyeing scarlet from the skyrocketing fire.

"Are you alright?"

The concern in her ears made Sophia suddenly come back to her senses, and she smiled at Ryan, as if to say that she was fine, but the sadness in her eyes could be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

"You can call me Ryan."

"I've heard of you, Ryan Bright, Barnard... As if sensing something was wrong, Sophia quickly stopped in the middle of her words.

"Bastard, it's okay, I'm used to it." Waving his hand to show that he didn't care, Ryan's relaxed look made Sophia breathe a sigh of relief.

"Sophia Griff, you should know about me, too." The smile on his face was slightly unnatural, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, Griff's marriage of the big woman to Budia was equivalent to giving Barnard a big mouth.

"That Elvis is you?" Although he didn't care, Ryan also didn't like to discuss the rights and wrongs between the families, so he quickly diverted his attention.

"He's my uncle, a noble purple dragon knight." At the mention of Elvis, Sophia's face showed adoration, and then quickly became gloomy, "He was very kind to me, I originally wanted to take advantage of my recent vacation to take me back to Shining Star Castle in person, but I didn't expect it... ”

In Cormier, the Purple Dragon Knight has a higher status than even some barons, and needs to have the corresponding strength and leadership. As Susar's fame, each Purple Dragon Knight is a property that is difficult to replicate, which is why Philip didn't think their team would have it before.

However, the death of a purple dragon knight at the border may cause an uproar in the royal city.

"Back to Castle of the Stars?" Hearing Sophia mention the name, a strange feeling rose in Ryan's heart.

"Yes, I'm a student there, and I'm back from the midsummer break to attend my eldest sister's engagement ceremony... As soon as she said this, Sophia stopped and looked cautiously at Ryan's pensive side face, "Do you hate mages too?" ”

"No, you're mistaken." Shaking his head, he was surprised that he had the same goal as her, but for various reasons, Ryan didn't tell her, "Are you a mage now?" ”

Seeing that Ryan didn't show a look of disgust, Sophia was relieved and a little curious, and when she heard him ask, her face was a little embarrassed for a while: "Not yet, Tutor Sebeline asked me to study for a while." ”

"Sebeline?"

"She is the archmage of Shining Star Castle, and she is also an elf, and she is beautiful, I heard that there are many people in Shining Star Castle who want to pursue her."

"Elves? Above board appeared in Sambia? ”

"Castle Shine is a place that is not governed by Sambian regulations, there are many scholars and mentors of different races, and even the librarian is a half-orc."

"Orc mage? Oh my God, what's wrong with this world? ”

“。。。 If you let Woodlaw know that you said that about him, you would definitely regret it. ”

"No, I'm just kidding."
