The town guard's mansion near the seashore was still very cold in the morning, and when the cold wind from the sea mixed with the fishy smell blew over Ivan, he couldn't help but shiver. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Ahh Ivan's nose itched and he sneezed, "Why is it so cold around?" ”

Ivan rolled over with his eyes closed, muttering discontentedly, but opened his eyes as soon as he realized that he was sleeping in a place other than a small wooden bed in his office.

"Uh, Nelson?" As soon as Ivan opened his eyes, he saw Nelson close at hand, and an expression of surprise immediately appeared on his face.

"Well, Admiral, don't want it there." Nelson, however, didn't seem to be awake yet, and seemed to be still dreaming.

"......" Ivan blinked, because the two were so close, Ivan could clearly feel the breath from Nelson hitting his face, "Why am I here, and why is Nelson by my side?" ”

Ivan noticed that the place he was in was not his room at all, but in the square of the Guard's House, and that Nelson was lying beside him, wrapped in the same quilt as him.

"Admiral, at least, at least after marriage." Nelson, what are you dreaming about?

"I remember staying here and training since dinner yesterday." Ivan began to think back to last night, "During this time, Nelson came over once and told me to go back to my room early to rest, but I pushed it off, and then, then what happened?" ”

Ivan's memory of last night is stuck here, probably because he was too tired and fell asleep.

"Get out of here first, and it won't be good if someone else sees you." Ivan looked at Nelson lying beside him, swallowed silently, and moved his body slightly.

"Well, don't go." I don't know if Nelson felt something, and directly reached out and hugged Ivan.

"Ugh." That's not good. Ivan looked at Nelson, who hugged him, and his heart trembled.

"The taste of the Admiral~" Nelson had a comfortable expression on his face after feeling the warmth.

"Ahem, that, Nelson, it's morning." Now that this situation is obviously impossible to leave quietly, Ivan can only choose to wake Nelson up.

"Huh?" Nelson's eyelids twitched, but they eventually opened.

"Admiral?" Nelson blinked, looking at Ivan beside him, a blush gradually appearing on his fair cheeks. She remembered that yesterday after seeing Ivan sleeping directly in the square, she went directly to her room and brought a quilt over, but she fell asleep directly because she was too absorbed in watching Ivan sleep.

"I'm sorry!!" Thinking of this, Nelson didn't care about anything, just rolled up the quilt and ran away, if she stayed here, she was worried that she would faint again because of shyness.

"Tsk." Ivan sighed with some pity when he saw Nelson run away.

"What, do you feel reluctant?" At this time, the empty mother walked over from a distance, and after seeing the reluctant look on Ivan's face, her tone was full of dissatisfaction.

"Nutrine, why are you here?!" Ivan panicked when he saw the empty mother approaching from a distance.

"Why are you here?" The empty mother walked to Ivan's side and looked at Ivan sitting on the ground condescendingly, her red eyes full of dissatisfaction, "You are so conspicuous in the square, how can I not see you." ”

"No, listen to me, I was so tired that I fell asleep here yesterday because I overtrained, and I really don't know why Nelson was next to me." Ivan hurriedly explained.

"Hmph." The empty mother snorted coldly, of course she knew what Ivan said. The empty mother felt the quilt that had just been put into her ship's space, her eyes were a little lonely, she saw Ivan lying in the square last night and fell asleep and went back to the room to get the quilt, but when she came back, she found that Nelson was already by Ivan's side, and Ivan had already put a quilt on his body.

"Well, you're not angry?"

"It's not your fault why I'm angry." The empty mother calmed down a little, she always thought that Nelson was an honest ship girl, but she didn't expect it to be really careless, and she was not careful, so she succeeded in sneaking away, "How is your skill studied?" ”

"It's still like that, no matter how much I change the revs or steer, the big ball will always swallow the small ball and the last two will be combined into one." After a night's rest, Ivan's soul network was almost restored.

He pulled a little soul power out of his mind and showed the Kuma the results so far.

"Seeing that you are working so hard, I'll come over and help you." The empty mother gathered her skirt and sat on the ground.

"How can I help?" Ivan looked at the empty mother, and his face showed doubt.

"Didn't you say it before, your idea was inspired by the crayfish, so I'll use my soul network to replace the role of the crayfish, and recreate the scene at that time, maybe you can come up with something this time." The empty mother released a little soul power and put it in the palm of her hand, although she didn't know the skill of soul compression, but the crayfish definitely didn't either.

"That's right, let's try it." Ivan nodded, feeling that what the empty mother said was not wrong, so he took out a little soul power from his mind, compressed it into a soul ball, and slowly approached the soul power of the empty mother.

As soon as Ivan's soul ball came into contact with the empty mother's soul power, it began to be consumed sharply, and was finally consumed by the empty mother's soul power.

"......" Ivan blinked.

"This time I'm using a little less soul power." The corners of the empty mother's mouth twitched, and she withdrew most of her soul power, "One more time." ”

"Hmm." Anyway, he had failed so many times, and Ivan didn't care, and recompressed a soul ball and stuck it on the soul power of the empty mother again.

This time, because the empty mother withdrew most of the soul power, the two began to stalemate, the soul belonging to Ivan and the soul belonging to the empty mother canceled each other out, but the empty mother stood on the upper hand, just when Ivan thought that there was a play this time, the soul power of the empty mother directly swallowed Ivan's soul ball.

"It's none of my business." Seeing Ivan looking at her suspiciously, the empty mother immediately shook her head, indicating that she didn't do it.

"Why, it's obviously two different soul powers, why is this happening?" Ivan was full of doubts at the moment.

"I remember that Molotto's method of rotating in time and in reverse time was to solve the problem of compatibility with the same soul, but there was a phenomenon of the strong side swallowing the weak side." Kumu frowned and began to analyze, "At first, I thought that because the two balls were still the same soul, even if they changed the direction of rotation, it would be useless, but now it seems that this is not the case. ”

"What do you mean?" Although Ivan doesn't know much about this, he thinks that the empty mother seems to be very powerful.

"Human, you try the same amount of soul balls, I think the reason why you were able to succeed last time should be because it happens that the soul balls are equivalent to the soul power of crayfish."

"Are you sure?"

"You have nothing to lose by giving it a try, and being idle is idle anyway."

"Okay, I'll try." Ivan closed his eyes and carefully controlled the soul power, dividing it into two parts with precision, and then compressing them into soul balls.

"Whew~" Ivan took a deep breath, his eyes became firm, and he didn't succeed this time.

The two identical orbs of soul eventually leaned together under Ivan's control and began to resist each other.

"Human, put the two of them together." The empty mother looked at the two small balls that were deadlocked with each other, and said to Ivan.

"Ah, isn't that the same as before?"

"I'll let you do it, just do it obediently." The empty mother frowned, she felt that this time was completely different from before.

"Okay." The big deal is failure, and Ivan doesn't care about this time, when even a little more force squeezes the two balls together.

The small ball rotating clockwise and the small ball rotating counterclockwise coincided perfectly, because the soul power contained in it was exactly the same, and for a while, neither could assimilate the other into one direction, and as a result, because there were two soul forces in different directions at the same time, the inside of the ball immediately became disordered, and the shell began to crack because of this disorder.

"And that worked?" Ivan felt the gradually cracking soul ball, his face showed surprise and a trace of chagrin, if he hadn't been affected by Molotto, instead of one big and one small, he would have succeeded by using the two identical balls at the beginning.

But before Ivan could be happy, the soul ball suddenly exploded, and a powerful soul shock was released from it, rushing in all directions.

Ivan, who was completely defenseless, saw a black eye after his soul was hit by this impact, and then he lost consciousness.

The strength of the empty mother's soul is much stronger than Ivan, although it was also impacted, but it only recovered after a fainting, and after seeing Ivan lying on the ground with his eyes closed, he immediately panicked, threw himself down to Ivan's side, stretched out his hand and shook Ivan.

"Human, human, are you alright, don't you scare me?" The empty mother looked at Ivan, who was still unconscious, her teeth clenched her lips, and her face was full of self-blame, if she had reacted earlier, there would not be such a thing now.

"It's okay, I just passed out." The empty mother breathed a sigh of relief after feeling that Ivan's breathing was very stable, and stretched out her hand to hug Ivan, "Send it back to the room first, if you sleep here, it won't be good if you catch a cold." "Although the empty mother also wants to use herself to warm Ivan like Nelson did last night, but now it's daytime, what if it is seen by others, the thin-skinned empty mother said that she really can't do it.
