"I'm sorry. The mother stepped back in fear, and the daughter hid behind her mother in fear.

This scene made the father's face look a little unpleasant, "Madam, I respect Mr. Scadin's contribution, but we are kind enough to take you in, and please also..."

"Kind?" "I'll tell you, if you don't let me rest here, my husband can get you out of Cabo the next day!"

"You..." was said like this, and the husband was also deflated, and it seemed that he could only swallow his anger.

"Let them cook! I occasionally want to try what the untouchables usually like to eat. The red shadow continued to exert his might, and his face was full of anger.

The mother and daughter did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran into the kitchen. Leaving her husband alone in the living room with Red Shadow.

The husband didn't know what to do now, so he stood there stunned.

"Come here. Red Shadow beckoned to him.

The husband didn't dare to disobey, so he hurriedly came over.

Red Shadow pulled the man in front of him at once, and then stroked his chest with his hand, "I'm going to sleep with you tonight." ”

"What!?" the man yelled, "No..."

Without warning, Red Shadow's hand suddenly exerted force, and the hand penetrated the man's body, but there was no blood, and she directly held the magic core in the man's puppet's body, "It's a good performance, but it's still far from it." The thief laughed, pulled his hand out, and pulled the core out.

Under the sudden attack, the core was not damaged in any way, and Akakage took out the box prepared in advance and put it in, while the doll fell on its back and never moved again, and it was not only the husband who did not move, but also the mother and daughter in the kitchen.

Outside the house, as soon as this scene happened, the dog in Lot's arms suddenly struggled, but the boy didn't give it any chance, and with a force of both hands, he directly crushed the inside of the dog, "Even dogs can be fake, amazing." Lott let go of his hand, and a pile of dog parts and fragments were scattered all over the ground.

At this time, he received the communication magic of the Red Shadow, "No one on your side escaped, did they?"

"I looked back and forth, and nothing went out. Lott replied.

"Then you go up to the second floor and see if there's anyone. Red Shadow continued to command him.

Lott nodded, he climbed up to the second floor in three or two clicks, and then looked in from the outside of the house, there were indeed people on the second floor, but it was strange that they didn't move like they were dead, they were dolls, Lott judged, he looked at several rooms in succession, and finally he found a person, he could be sure that he was a human, because this person had pierced his neck with a dagger, and blood was flowing all over the ground.

"Someone died, committed suicide. Lott immediately replied to Red Shadow.

"That's fine, let's go. Red Shadow said as she walked to the gate.

"Why don't you go in and search carefully?" Lott jumped down from the second floor in confusion, but as soon as he landed, a sharp pain came.

"You're really not light or heavy!" Red Shadow hurriedly came over to help him, and Lott lay directly in her arms.

"I'm sorry!" Lott wanted to break free, but Red Shadow didn't let her, she picked up Lott directly, "Don't move, I'll carry you back, your wound is open." ”

"Ahh

"If you don't want to lift heavy objects, you jump down from the second floor. Are you clever or stupid?" Akakage was angry and funny.

"I'm sorry, Lady Red Shadow. "Lott can't help it now, the severe pain makes him unable to stand at all, he can only be carried by the Red Shadow, and now the posture of the two of them is a gorgeously dressed noblewoman holding a humble squire, which is quite eye-catching.

"Is there really no need to go to the second floor?" Lott was still uneasy, "What if someone is hiding?" or using teleportation to leave?"

"I'm sure there's no breath of the living, and I can't teleport them, because I've put a silent curse on that house beforehand, so the suicide must have really died

。 ”

"Are you a nightingale now?" Hearing the curse of silence, Lott thought of Brandt and Saiya.

"You're smart, sort of. Akakage smiled a little smugly at the mention that he was a nightingale, "After that, just leave the house to the sparrows." ”

"That's Black Rose's stronghold, isn't it?"

"Yes, according to Modrella's traceback, it was suspected that it was their stronghold, so I went in to confirm it and destroyed it. After the Red Shadow finished speaking, he lowered his voice again, "I didn't even bring a weapon this time, it's amazing~" The thief winked at the boy.

"Are those dolls in there?" Lott thought about the man's apparent goodness to him.

"Except for the man who committed suicide. ”

"How do you see that?" the boy was a little curious about this.

"First of all, they didn't know the name you made up, which is a bit strange for citizens who have lived there for two years, although this cannot be used as conclusive evidence, but it is also rare. Secondly, there is moss on the steps, which is also strange, although there is also a possibility that they haven't been out recently, or have gone out of the yard. Thirdly, I don't know whether to make tea hot or cold, if you insist on saying that this is also reasonable, it is fine. But the last point," Akakage said, his expression became a little flirtatious, "that man's chest didn't rise or fall when I seduced him, that's enough to judge, right?"

"Ahh Lott smiled awkwardly, then glanced at her chest, "Okay." ”

"You seem to have done it over there, too?" Akakage looked at Lott in his arms.

"It was a fake dog. ”

"Heh, dogs can cheat. ”

"This dog should be used to report the accident after the accident, and it will be excited immediately when you do it. ”

"Possibly. Red Shadow nodded, "I don't know how she will react to this. The thief said with a wicked smile.

"Red Shadow, I always feel uneasy not to go to the second floor. Seeing that the topic was getting farther and farther away, Lott still brought up his worries again.

"Lot, listen to me. Seeing that the boy repeatedly mentioned this matter, Red Shadow could only explain it to him, "If you were the man who committed suicide, after knowing that the stronghold was breached, would you leave some behind, such as an explosion or something." ”

"Maybe, if you have the time and the conditions. The boy put himself in his shoes, and it did make sense.

"That's not it, it's very dangerous for us to go to the second floor, and I've got what I want now, if something happens, the gains outweigh the losses, what's the point. Taking a step back, even if any of them were really alive, this time would be our victory. Don't take fearless risks, little ghost. Red Shadow said and patted him on the back.

"You say that, I understand. Lott felt like he had been taught another lesson, "That's right." ”

"What's wrong again?" the red shadow leaned over slightly.

"Why do you want me to be my assistant? The boy suddenly thought of this.

"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?" Red Shadow looked into his eyes.

"Forget it, you better stop talking about it. Lott hung his head.

A few days later, there was such a conversation on the magic carriage to Kuruno.

"Mr. Calvin. Lot, who had healed his wounds again, was sitting on the left side of the carriage at this time. Now in the car, the boy is not as impetuous as he used to be, even if he stays in the car for a day, he will not have any discomfort.

"What's wrong?" the knight on the right turned to look at him.

"I used to compare adventurers to death row prisoners in prison, do you remember?" the young man had no expression on his face.

"You're still mentioning this. Calvin scratched his head, "It's unlucky." ”

"Calvin

"Sir," said Lot, looking at the knight, "you didn't deny my analogy, did you?"

"Ahh ”

"I was forced to become an adventurer because of what happened to Rhodes, at first I didn't know that adventurers were such a cruel profession, and even if there was a sacrifice that time, I thought it was a special case, and I didn't realize it at all, until Uncle Hopler... But did you, Mr. Calvin, know this before you become adventurers?"

"Of course, the Adventurer's Guild is not a bad deception gang, and when you join, both the guild members and the free people are actually ready to come to their senses. The knight said and hammered his chest.

"Then why?" Lott didn't understand, "You know it's such a dangerous thing, and you still have to do it, aren't you afraid?"

Calvin looked at Lott and put his arm around his shoulder, "Of course, who is not afraid of death?" Calvin said, his eyes became melancholy, "Lot, if everyone is afraid of death, then who will protect this world?"

"The king..."

"Listen to me, Lot, there are four kingdoms on this continent, and their king will always only think about the interests of his country, and in the face of the safety of the world, they will always only slow down, sometimes even more than one beat, and when they react, the world is estimated to be half cold. Calvin's words made sense, and Lott could only nod.

"And we, as believers in God, have gained great power through the gods. As a price, we must protect the world, whether we are afraid or not, whether we will die or not, we must do it. This is the will of the gods and our responsibility. ”

"I—" Lott stopped talking.

"You're not a guild member, you're a free man, Lot. You don't need to take this responsibility on your shoulders, just like the free people in the Adventurers' Guild, their purpose may just be to think that it is easy to make money as adventurers and to be famous, which is normal, they have not made a promise to any gods, they are free. Protecting the world is left to us. ”

"Fellow adventurers, your probability of death is much greater than theirs, aren't you angry?"

"We're stronger than them, Lot. Calvin laughed "Free people have no nationality, no faith, so there is no obligation to die for anyone, and you are the same, it's nothing to be angry about." ”

"Mr. Calvin—" Lott called the knight's name, then fell into deep thought, and then he suddenly smiled "I actually have a purpose, I don't want to save the world, but I want to save the people I cherish." ”

"Lot..."

"Teacher, you don't have to persuade me on this point, in fact, my wish is the same as yours, and it is a sad wish for you to protect the world after all, this is something you can't accomplish in your life, and the crisis will never stop. What's wrong with letting me save you while you're saving the world. Lott closed his eyes.

"If you move forward with this goal, the future will be full of pain. ”

"There is no escape from pain, Mr. Calvin, whatever the choice, there will be joys and sorrows in the future, and the path I have taken is only a little less common and not any different. ”

Calvin looked at the teenager now, and his thoughts changed a little. Lott grew up fast, maybe his mind grew faster than his fighting skills, and maybe his wish wasn't the scar of Hopler's death?Calvin couldn't quite understand the idea, but he was beginning to feel that it was a wish worthy of respect. The free man used to be a group of opportunistic and timid people in his eyes, and his own disciples were so different, he was so special, from Lot, the knight could feel that he had a sense of mission, as if he had to accomplish something. As his teacher, this is really nerve-wracking.

Just recalling this conversation, the rest of the journey will not be boring.
