145 [Trial 2] Trust your instincts, even if the target is a woman? (25)

Alex never expected to see such a scene.

His favorite girl is maliciously laughed at by a group of people, covered in bloody scars, and it turns out that it is David Field, his most trusted companion, who is responsible for all this.

He couldn't hide his shock as he watched David coldly raise his sword to slash down, and he interrupted him with magic without thinking.

"Oh, you're back." For Alex, because Lillian was not hostile to this, David didn't have much resistance at this time, "You get out of the way, you just came back from studying outside, I don't know what's going on here." ”

"Yes, perhaps." Everyone saw that the blonde girl who had once been as cold as a god in their memories had a frost in her eyes that had never been seen before, "But I know—for whatever reason, this is not the reason why you met her sword!" ”

"Alex!" David's somewhat meaningful tone aggravated, "I said you get out of the way." ”

Seeing Alex pursing the corners of his lips and walking forward step by step with a cold gaze, pulling Annie to his side, David suddenly understood something for a while, his eyes became disdainful, and he sneered, "What?" A coward who doesn't even dare to tell the truth, and now he wants to defend others? ”

"David." A soft, soft voice stopped him, and Lillian stepped forward, quietly looking at the blonde girl in front of her, who everyone said was more beautiful and talented than her. She used to think that she would feel jealous when she saw her, but strangely, now she didn't feel that way, but instead had an urge to befriend her.

God knows, she doesn't care at all about girls who are jealous of her or who try to get some advantage from the men around her, and therefore rarely have the idea of really dating women.

Speaking of which......

However, even though there was a slight doubt in her heart, she still smiled more gently.

"You're Alex Kent? Nice to meet you, I'm Lillian Wood. ”

Hearing her last name, Alex subconsciously frowned, he remembered what the girl had said when she was drunk after coming out of the tavern - her father had another daughter, and they were going to kill her.

Thinking of this, he hugged the girl in his arms closely.

Probably caught in his gaze, Lillian said generously, "Yes, as you guessed, this Miss Anne Wood and I are half-sisters. ”

"It's just that she owes me and my mother an apology." Thinking of the past, her strong eyes were filled with tears again, making the people on the side look distressed and angry.

"Really? But I don't think so. Alex said coldly, and wanted to leave with the girl after speaking, but before he could take a step, he was intercepted by David with a sword, "Leaving like this, isn't it a little too uncourteous?" ”

"Oh, I see." Alex looked at him steadily, with a light smile, like a joke, but with an indescribable mockery, "I remember someone once said that he had only him and his sword on horseback, and there would be no lady. Now it seems that this friend has clearly reversed himself. ”

"Yes. If this lady had been a good girl, I think any determined knight would have repented. ”

Alex chuckled and stopped trying to talk to him. He could already see that David had really changed, and perhaps it was not just David.

Looking at the sword at his waist, he lowered his eyes to look at the obvious exhaustion on Anne's face.

He whispered, "David, you need to know. ”

"No one can really stop me."

After speaking, a surging huge magical power erupted from his body, and he opened the sword involuntarily, and pulled the girl away under the surprised and unbelievable gaze of everyone.

David watched the two of them leave together with an ugly face, and then looked at the mess around them, and for a long time, he didn't have a good breath, "It's all scattered." ”

Lillian, on the other hand, stood still, thinking thoughtfully about something.

……

Located in the Holy City, the bazaars are much more lively than usual, with vendors of beer and food from all over the world setting up stalls and shouting and shouting, but their eyes quietly look at every richly dressed lady and lord on the road.

on the carriage.

The girl propped her chin and looked out the window at the life that she hadn't seen for a long time, and was stunned—here, there was no Lillian Wood.

At this moment, listening to the clamor outside, the chatter of the people, and the voice of the knights of the church to maintain order, she did not feel this way for months—she still lived in this world vividly.

Even though she boasted that she had been through so much, in that church college where she was not allowed to go out without the permission of the dean and the mentor, it was like an absurd and bizarre strange dream, even if she wanted to stay away as much as possible, but the power that belonged to Lillian Wood would involve her in all kinds of disputes, making her lose her sanity and clarity, and be a character in the Mary Sue world, wrapped in hatred and resentment.

If she hadn't remembered what she had to do in her heart, she would have gone mad, crazy enough to doubt her existence, crazy enough to flee without hesitation.

Even if she persevered until now, months of mental exhaustion were about to overwhelm her.

The corners of the girl's eyes were slightly red, and her face was much paler than the last time he saw her, and although she was still dressed in that neat riding costume, he felt as if she was about to collapse.

"Are you alright?" Alex, who has always been decisive in the mission, has turned into an ordinary teenager in front of the girl he loves, and he asked cautiously looking at her side face.

"Oh. Allie, I'm fine. An Ningning came back to her senses, wiped her fragility with her palm, turned back to him and smiled as usual, "It's really good." ”

"Thank you for coming back today."

Alex couldn't help frowning slightly, what he liked to see most was the girl riding on a horse in high spirits and high spirits, rather than reluctantly telling her that she was okay now.

Distressed, angry, and frustrated by her concealment.

How he hoped that she could vent all her grievances in front of her!

- Maybe he has forgotten that even though he has become a partner now, a certain girl will never be in the same position as a former opponent (in terms of beauty?). Admitting defeat in disguise!

"Is it because—David?" The boy raised his eyebrows tentatively, a nervousness in his eyes that he hadn't even noticed.

David and Anne had always had a good time, but whether it was what the girl had said when she was drunk before, or what she had just heard, he knew that the two of them were not related by blood.

So, if Anne really liked David during this time, and the other party treated her like this, there was a reason why she was so sad.

The boy pursed his lips and subconsciously hid his sadness. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Fast Wear, No Tranquility Claw Book House" for the first time.
