Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Longest Day, Nine
Leaving the two unidentified fellows behind, Julius ran at a very fast pace. He had no intention of continuing with those two, which was stupid - there was no need for it, because the other party was not looking for him, but for Mulder, who always felt arrogant for some reason. It's not that Julius is denigrating this guy he just met, it's the feeling he gives Julius, most of which is it. The guy doesn't hide himself a bit, and there's always a strange feeling between gestures. If Julius had to say anything, it would be like a great lord on high above......
Could this be the reason why he was sought out by these people? No matter how you look at it, these people come with malicious intentions, and are more dangerous than the men sent by the dealer to rob gambling money.
Julius, who was running in the alley, soon ran out and returned to the street. He was not familiar with the city yet, but he could still grasp the general direction, and he did not mistake the direction of the hookah shop. Julius, who walked through the crowd, had a lot of questions in his mind. That man, I'm afraid...... No, there was definitely something to hide from Julius. No matter how you look at it, this is not like a person who is chasing and killing because of gambling, what kind of person is he that will provoke such a dangerous existence. And this danger is still familiar to Julius......
As Julius hurried to the hookah shop where he had stayed, Romeona was in a tangle at the lake. The pointer from Apo was now pointing in one direction, visibly shaking. If the pointer wasn't shaking, Romeona wouldn't think the pointer was pointing at something. Now it seems that the pointer is indeed pointing to something she doesn't know.
After Lulunaka handed the hand back to her, she simply kept the gadget on her as a delicate ornament and did not use it. According to Lulunaka, it's a baby that can find what she wants once it's set up, but she doesn't know how to use it. Even if you want to use this thing to get some treasure, the concept is too broad and abstract to point to anything, just to make the pointer spin - God knows where it is pointing.
But now, the pointer is really pointing in a certain direction, and something is locked by the pointer.
Lulunaka was the only one who had ever touched the pointer, and she was the only one who could make the pointer point to something. Now that Lulunaka wasn't here, she couldn't ask Lulunaka what was going on.
The hands were still shaking, and Romeona was sitting on the Whimsy, not knowing what to do, and if she walked away, the Whimsy would be left unattended. Just how appealing the Unowned thing is, Romeona understands, and if she dares to leave the Whimsy for too long, it will definitely be stolen.
What should I do, Romeona? Romeona asked herself what she should do at this time. If Julius and Luluna were stuck, maybe they wouldn't need to be bothered......
Julius, who was thinking of Romeona, was in semi-chaos because of his bad luck and what happened suddenly. As for Lulunaka, right now, she is at a life-or-death juncture...... If that's the case, it's really a miracle.
The Dark Elf raised her sword and looked like it was about to land on Lulunaka's body. The sword was in mid-air, and any further down the blade would fall on Lulunaka's shoulder, leaving a scar on her body that split her body in two.
But the sword did not fall. The Dark Elf raised his sword and aimed it at Lulunaka. And Lulunaka, who was about to die, did not panic in the slightest, and could not see anything like a person who was about to be executed.
The Dark Elf sighed softly and lowered his sword. "Have fun? β
"It's a lot of fun. Lulunaka turned her head away with a big smile on her face, "But there is one thing I didn't expect, I didn't expect you to cooperate with me so much and act on such an absurd and ridiculous play." β
"That's probably not acting, teacher. The Dark Elf knelt down on one knee, reached out and grabbed Lulunaka's small hand, leaned her head over, and touched her lips on the back of her hand, "Long time no see, my dear teacher. β
"Oh, where did you learn this romantic trick?" Lulunaka laughed even more, it was clear that the Dark Elf's actions made her very amusedβshe was a person who did whatever she wanted because it was funny, and the Dark Elf in front of her was clearly aware of this, and she just did what she liked.
"In the knight's novel. The Dark Elf said, "I'm a knight too, and I know a little bit about this kind of etiquette. β
"I've never seen a female knight do such a thing, you're funny, Blackie. Lulunaka laughed.
Lulunaka calls the Dark Elves Blackie, which is certainly not her real name, but to Lulunaka, she is indeed Blackie, and she is only Blackie - no matter how prominent her other identities are, even if she is one of the three horsemen of the Crescent Empire, the Blackwater Rider, it will not make Lulunaka change her mind.
"It's nice to see you again, Sensei. β
Lulunaka's hand landed on Blackie's face. The unique skin color of the dark elves is different from those who were born and raised in the Crescent Moon Empire, her skin color is not as light as moonlight, but a darker complexion, which makes her look like a black jewel, and the silver hair of the shawl gives her a strange beauty.
"You've become a woman, Blackie. Lulunaka said.
"It's been a long time, and even elves should grow from girls to adults. Black said to Lulunaka, "But you haven't changed anything, teacher. β
"If I have a change, that's not a good thing, maybe it's another person, not your dear teacher. β
"Yes. The dark elves' eyes looked at Lulunaka. Her pupils were all white, and she looked like she had no eyeballs, "Teacher, I just said that some of the words are not acting, I think you should understand, right?"
Lulunaka nodded.
"In this old palace, someone important has indeed disappeared...... It's not unusual, it's a man who doesn't want to be lonely, and he has the ability to act recklessly. However, this time is different, and he is afraid that he will have to pay the price for his mess. Xiao Hei's eyes narrowed slightly, "Assassins, too." I don't know what you think, teacher?"
"You're doubting me, of course I know that. Lulunaka smiled at the subtle Hei, "I'm not an assassin, but I'm here to do something bad. β
