Chapter 35: Departure
"Alan, I'll go with you."
Ilt saddled Ressa and smiled at Eren as he sharpened his sword with a stone.
"You don't need to accompany us, this journey is destined to be difficult and bumpy. After a year of eating and drinking, I finally came back, so you should accompany your mother-in-law more. ”
Eren stood up, facing the sunlight, and raised the rusty sword that Obasang had lent him,
"What a light sword."
Alan couldn't help but sigh. Compared to the broadsword that my father carried, this sword was incredibly light, but the blade was very tough. At that time, when rescuing Tia and breaking the barrier, Eren used the skill of Bafang Slash. An ordinary sword, under such a skill, will definitely be shattered by the reaction force.
But now that I look closely, except for the rust, there is not even a gap left on the blade.
"Ellen, don't forget that I'm a master of medicine! Don't you think it's a guarantee to have me? ”
Ilt confidently gave himself a thumbs up.
Eren put down his sword and looked at him,
"Mother-in-law didn't say a word, where you went this year, it doesn't mean that mother-in-law accepted the fact that you left home, and I'm not sure how long this trip will take. Therefore, I don't want you to follow us on an adventure. ”
Without waiting for Ilt to reply, Eren placed the rusty sword next to the stone, returned to the house, and continued to pack his luggage. Ilt looked at the rusty sword next to the stone, the blue body reflected in his blue eyes was silent, his gloved left hand clenched his fist slightly, and turned into the room.
On that day, after thanking Obasang for his hospitality and care, Alan, Tia, and Ressa made their way through Sunlight City and left through the South Gate, all the way to the rumored ruins.
"Wow! What a magnificent building! ”
Tia couldn't help but be stunned,
"Is it grander than the temple you live in?"
Alan asked with a smile.
"It's different, their style is completely different." Kronos' palace, which has been simple since my grandfather's generation, may still be luxurious on the outside, but never add a brick or silver decoration on the inside. And here, although it has been dilapidated for a long time, you look at these ruins. Although the carving on it has undergone many baptisms of wind and rain, it still retains the style of the year. The choice of materials used by the builders can be seen. Plus the sweat and hard work of skilled craftsmen. It still has the charm of it. ”
Tia's fingers touched the half-cut stone pillar that alternated between yin and yang, and sighed.
Alan asked Ressa to rest around, and he looked around the ruins, but found no trace of demon activity. Looking at the already reddened sky, I thought to myself: If I continue to hurry, at midnight, I should be able to reach Xingyu Lake. However, there is no need to be in such a hurry. It doesn't seem to be as dangerous as Obasan suggests, on the contrary, it has roofs and walls. It's a great place to spend the night.
He looked around again, turned back to Tia and said,
"Let's stay here for one night and leave tomorrow morning."
"Hmm!"
Tia nodded obediently, and the two of them found the small pavilion in the ruins, removed the blanket from Ressa, and spread it out,
"It's like camping."
Tia happily placed the dry food and water bladders that Obasang had prepared for them on the blanket.
There was a rare moon hanging in the sky, and in Odaheim, because of the brilliance of the two suns, the moon could not be seen even at full moon. But only in the sky near the ruins of Xingyu Lake, you can clearly see a whole round moon shining slightly.
But at this moment, in this quiet moonlight, a battle with no chance of winning is going on quietly.
I saw that Eren was holding a rusty sword in his hand, his eyes were wide open, and the attack of "Sudden and Sonic Impact" was completely stopped in the air. His whole body tensed, and he stood straight in place, motionless. The fiery red eyes were firmly fixed on the "person" in front of him.
Ilte, on the other hand, was running, his hands frozen in mid-air, and an unformed fireball was frozen between his palms.
Tia, on the other hand, lay curled up in the place where she had rested, her brow serene, as if unconscious.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, a child is a child, the blood is strong, so impulsive, he will fight and kill at every turn. I didn't want to do anything to you. Look at how embarrassing it is for everyone to be like this now. Ha. ”
