Chapter 257: Night Meeting

While the chief knight and his elven servants were still cutting through thorns in the forest, an unprecedented drama was being staged in the blue lion king capital at night. It's just that ordinary people and most of the grey lion soldiers are destined to miss this event in the shadows, all they can see is the thick night, and what is hidden under the night is the scenery that those who live in the sun can only see in the deepest nightmares.

The busy streets during the day were quiet at night, and only the shouts and fires on the distant walls testified to the fierce fighting going on on on the outskirts of the city. The commercial area of the royal capital reveals an eerie atmosphere in the night wind.

"Click, click" footsteps, the rain walks without footsteps, so this is not the sound he makes. The melancholy-looking bard slowly turned his head to the side where the voice came, and as expected, he saw a gray robe.

"I've already met Elsa and thank you for helping me take care of them these days. The mage's voice was flat, and there was not the slightest hint of gratitude. But Rain doesn't seem to care about that.

"That's part of the deal. Judging by the current situation, it is worth it. "The sound of the rain is very soft, and it seems to have a peculiar sense of rhythm, usually as long as they hear his voice, people will unconsciously think of some unhappy things. But cheese is apparently unaffected.

"Of course it's worth it, Heather is the one who is favored by the Lord of the Rain, and it's your duty to protect her, isn't it?" The eyebrows under Cheese's hood converged towards the center, which meant that the mage's heart might not be as calm as his tone.

"Don't talk about it, we seem to be cheating, mage. Rain chuckled, "You agreed to this deal." Besides, didn't you get something else, the rain of the first rain, which even those of us who serve the Lord can't easily get. ”

"That's really magical. But I guess it didn't just work as a simple elixir, did it? I was unconscious at the time, but I knew exactly who was bringing me back from flesh and blood. The mage's voice was no longer calm, and the displeasure in Cheese's words was palpable.

"Haha, please don't get so excited, Mr. Cheese. And, after all, the raindrop is a part of the Lord in the world, and you don't really think that drinking it won't be affected. Rain shrugged as she spoke, then continued without waiting for Cheese to speak.

But you don't need to worry too much, maybe the average person will become a believer in the Lord the moment you drink the raindrops, but it is clear that you are not a believer in the Lord. I'm not afraid to tell you that the impact of the raindrops is negligible to you, and the positioning effect attached to it is depleted during the day. I don't know why the Lord would let us expend such important resources to help you, speculating on the Lord's intentions is not permissible in itself. ”

Cheese snorted coldly when he heard the other party's words, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Can I understand that what you just said is what your Lord wants to tell me? He wants to use your mouth to tell me that I don't have to worry about the effect of that raindrop on me? ”

The mage's words silenced the bard, and Rain didn't expect Cheese to see through his purpose so easily. Indeed, those things just now were revealed to the mage by a certain high-ranking being, and as for the purpose of that being, as Yu said, it is not something that a servant like him can speculate.

The silence of the other party is also a kind of answer for Cheese, and even this kind of answer is more referential than the verbal answer. The mage wasn't stupid enough to really believe what the other person said, so his conjecture was only one of many possibilities. However, due to the current constraints, in order to thoroughly study the effects of the raindrops on him, Cheese will have to wait until he returns to the Grey Tower.

"Since I continue the language game with you, there is no way to lead you to believe me. Then I'll just say everything I have to say so we can both save some time. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. After a few moments, Rain seemed to have given up on continuing such an ambiguous conversation with the mage, and he spread his hands and said.

"I'm not just asking you out this time to dispel your doubts about the raindrops. And I'm going to tell you a couple of things. First, it's about Ms. Heather. Lady Heather's family had some intersections with my lord for a long time, though the bloodline had faded to the point of barely existing. However, there is still a very small chance that someone with some characteristics will be born. About this, I'm sure you will know better than me. ”

"Well, it's no wonder the teacher helped those people. It turned out to be the heir of the Lord of the Rain, which is really interesting. Cheese nodded, and he had a certain understanding of Heather's identity. Seeing this, Rain continued.

"Second, it's about what happened to you during the day. The Greylion, this kingdom, is not just a remote capital in a corner of the world, as you might think. The Lord, and other beings of the same class as the Lord, are interested in something in this kingdom. I don't know if this will help you, but I hope you can think about this plague from this perspective. Is it possible that this plague is just to cover something?"

This time it was the mage's turn to be silent, and what Rain said was so terrifying that it could interest the Wet Soul and other beings known as the Divine Mansion, and even participate in it himself...... Cheese's brain raced as he searched for what he knew, trying to find something that might meet that condition. But this is in vain, even if you can skillfully recite the entire library of the Gray Tower, there are still too many unknown things for this world.

"Third, I don't know what this sentence means, be careful of yourself. ”

As soon as the rain finished speaking, it turned into a puddle of water in front of Cheese, and it was hard to imagine that the water was still a person a second ago. Seeing this, although the mage still had a lot of things in his heart that he wanted to ask, he knew that the other party would not give him another chance to ask questions. Hints from the rain, even help is a test, and for this information, Cheese still needs to think about it. Thinking so, the mage's body gradually lost its color, and finally assimilated into a gray mist with the robe on his body, dissipating into the evening breeze.
