8 Reunion

Melo suddenly straightened up, saluted Count Lee again, and said, "Long time no see, Earl." ”

"You don't have to be out of sight." The Count said, "If only you had arrived." It seems that your two comrades don't know that we know each other. ”

"I didn't mention it to them," said Milo, looking for something from side to side, and he had been in this state since the beginning, much to the displeasure of Charles and Hans, "Count, that ......"

"I've sent someone to look for it, she should be over right away." The Count guessed what he meant, "Oh, I've sent someone to find out about her family, and when the matter here is over, you can go and find it." ”

Milo raised her eyebrows and said excitedly, "Thank you so much, Earl, I don't know how to express my gratitude." ”

"Thank you, you saved the life of my old bone, I just raised my hand." The Count said modestly.

Suddenly, the wooden door of the room was pushed open, followed by a crisp, loud female voice calling, "Milo! You're finally here! "A young girl suddenly rushed towards Milo." Don't- Wait a minute, Heidi, I'm covered in sand now......" Melo shouted as she reached out to stop it, but the girl rushed into his arms and hugged him tightly. "Great, great, you're alive! I worry about you every day, you're finally here! As the girl screamed and jumped excitedly, Milo smiled helplessly, wrapped her arms around her, and gently patted her fragrant shoulder to soothe her excitement. Milo glanced at Count Li again, nodded his head in gratitude, and the Earl, with a smile of relief, gestured to Milo and walked out of the room.

Heidi finally calmed down, and the excitement of reuniting after a long absence made the girl's face glow with youthful vitality. Milo can finally see the girl who has always haunted him again: the appearance is about twenty years old, pretty, delicate face, shining eyes, the gaze contains friendliness and hope, although it is not a peerless beauty, but it is very attractive, leaving a very innocent and lovely impression, in fact, her character is indeed the same, she is slightly lower than Milo, her figure is just right, and her whole body is full of youthful brilliance and vitality. At this time she was dressed in a crimson robe, which stretched below the knees, and leather boots on her feet, which did not match her appearance; a white medical work dress, like an apron; She also tied up her long hair and wrapped it in an equally white headscarf. Milo knew at a glance that Heidi had become a temporary medics.

The two hugged each other like this, and finally let go, only to find that Heidi's face, hands, and the white dress of the medical staff were rubbed with a lot of sand, which was very dirty and ugly. Heidi was unconcerned, but suddenly remembered something, and began to touch Milo's body with her hand, and asked, "Let me see, is there any injury?" Are there any new scars......" was full of concern in his tone, but it was like a joke. Milo was amused by Heidi's quirkiness and said, "Don't worry, all the parts are in good condition, and if you lose them, I will tell you, you can get me a new one." Heidi smiled too, and looked at the person in front of her who she had been thinking about for a long time, and couldn't help but fall into Milo's arms again. Milo didn't stop her this time, hugged her into his arms with all his might, and began to recall the scenes of the two of them parting from life and death several times......

Heidi Trister, a young girl in a village around the city of Toom, lives happily with her family by selling flowers and doing odd jobs. Before the Djinn Crisis erupted, she met Milo Entekoman, a soldier in the defenders of Tum City, and the two slowly developed a romantic relationship. However, the sudden outbreak of the Djinn Crisis shattered the daily peace of life, and Melo was ordered to escort the residents of Toom City and the surrounding areas to the rear, including Heidi's family. During the evacuation, a small group of djinn intercepted them, and Heidi was separated from her family, but at the critical moment, Melo found her, and the two of them continued to flee with the survivors. On the way, Melo rescued Count Lee, who was trapped while visiting a friend here from the djinn's butcher's knife, but the count was seriously wounded, and his servants fled to death, and his life was in danger. The strong Heidi endured the grief of being separated from her family and took great care of Count Lee, pulling him back from the clutches of death. After Milo settled Heidi and the Count, he reluctantly said goodbye to her and joined in the fierce battle at the front. Heidi did not complain or blame in the slightest, she knew Milo's obligations as a soldier, and continued to take care of Count Lee with great care, and she was always helping the refugees around her. After the fall of Toom, Heidi was surrounded by weeping and wailing, she didn't know which team Milo belonged to at the time, nor did she know his mission, she just firmly believed that Milo would come back to her, and he would definitely come back to her. The girl's perseverance also touched Count Lee, who had been cared for, and he learned of Heidi's separation from her family and decided to donate his strength to help her later. Eight months later, the "Soul of Toom City" returned, and Melo rushed to Heidi's place after only a simple medical treatment, and the two hugged each other and cried for a long time when they reunited, both of them had imagined the most pessimistic possibility, but when they saw that each other had successfully survived, no amount of tears or words could express their inner feelings. After just a few days together, Melo said goodbye to Heidi and the Earl again, returned to the front line, and under the command of Marquis Ryson, he incarnated as the "Undead of Toom City" and launched a counterattack against the djinn. At the end of each mission, Melo returns to Heidi to give her comfort and companionship. The front of the counteroffensive continued to advance, and the time available to accompany her became less and less, and when he was in trouble, Count Lee came to his aid.

As the war situation in the north became clearer, the roads blocked by the djinn were restored, and Count Li was able to return to his own territory. He received the news that Windwalk had successfully defeated the invading djinn, and people's lives had gradually recovered. Therefore, Count Lee's idea was to take Heidi back to his territory, arrange food and lodging, and thank her for saving her life, and wait for the war to be completely over, so that Melo could rush to Fengxing Town to join Heidi. The Count also promised that when he returned to the territory, he would send people around to find out about Heidi's family, much to Heidi's and Mello's ecstasy. The two said goodbye again and agreed to meet again in Fengxing Town. Earl Lee was a good man who knew how to repay his kindness and kept his promises, and after he brought Heidi back to the territory, the first thing he did was to send his capable men to gather information and find out the news. He also arranged a room and servants for Heidi, hoping to repay her kindness. However, Heidi politely declined the Count's arrangement of servants, and worked odd jobs in the town to assist the townspeople. Heidi's noble qualities once again moved Earl Lee, and he arranged for more of his men to travel all over the country, and even the surrounding countries, to find clues about Heidi's family.

When the war in the south of the empire ended, there were reports of scattered djinn threats from all over the country, and Milo found the name of "Windwalk" in many reports, and took the initiative to ask Ying to lead the team, and after getting approval, he still hid his inner ecstasy, and without further ado, led his men to set off.

Now, Heidi is back in his arms again, like a dream, he wants to end this mission, and he and Heidi go to find his family, live happily in a place where there is no threat from the djinn, as long as he can be with this girl, what is the legend of the "undead of Toom City", the honor of the empire, the prophecy of Domi...... It's all irrelevant.

Melo sighed for a long time, and when she came back to her senses, she found Heidi looking at him with concern. "What do you want?" Heidi's gentle tone made his heart melt. "I'm thinking about ending everything here and going with you to find your family." "Well, keep your promise as before." Heidi mischievously responded, "The Earl already has news of them, I heard that they are in ......"

Suddenly there was a knock at the door, accompanied by a dry cough from Count Lee, apparently deliberately reminding them, and the two quickly separated—and then, the Count pushed the door open and entered.
