Chapter 225: Departure
On the flat ground on the edge of the Old World, a huge red dragon descended from the sky.
"So, let's go."
Seeing Hulian Bei, who responded to the call, landed beside him, Zhou Yao turned his head and said to Artoria and Lei Duoer behind him.
The Uruk invasion had officially ended two days earlier, and the post-war negotiations had proceeded smoothly.
Zhou Yao didn't ask whether the two sides shook hands and made peace, or whether it was a compensation for land cession or something, and he chose to rest for two days.
Of course, it's a heavenly rest in a garden town.
Now that the matter is over, it's time to go back to the central province.
"Finally gone, and now there will be no light bulbs to disturb my father and me."
Redore leaned against Artoria's side and waved her hand in a repellent gesture.
"You'll have to give me back then."
Artoria glanced at him coldly and said without question.
"Heyββ!?"
Lei Duoer's happy expression suddenly collapsed, and she let out a mournful cry in a long voice.
"Don't abandon me! Father! β
Then he hugged Artoria's delicate body tightly and coquettishly began to spoil her.
If you don't see one of her hands covering Artoria's buttocks and the other climbing the peak of a poor mountain, it must be just coquettishness.
Well, Lei Duoer is really a.
Even at this time, I don't forget to take advantage, I really have to admire it...... It's no wonder you'll admire!
"Stop!"
As expected, Reddol's "crime" was corrected by Artoria's punch.
"This is my father's love!"
Lei Duoer covered the bulging bag on her head, but she was even more happy.
Fortunately, there are no outsiders here except them, otherwise they would have been watched.
...... in all respects
"Why did I suddenly think of the word father's love like a mountain, it must be that I want to be crooked......"
Zhou Yao silently spit to himself.
"But I still want to spend more time with my father. It's best to ...... for the rest of your life."
Lei Duoer explained pitifully with a pout, but the last half of the sentence whispered revealed her sincerity.
"Shut up, you've just been through a war, and you have to go back to the kingdom." Artoria rebuked harshly.
"Okay."
Seeing my father so serious. There was no way, but Lei Duoer had to agree.
After reprimanding her, Artoria looked at Zhou Yao again.
"I'm sorry I can't treat you solemnly, I'm too busy with the aftermath."
Artoria said apologetically.
"Ah, it's okay, it's important to get down to business." Zhou Yao shook his head and said.
"Thank you very much this time, I don't know how serious the consequences would have been without you."
Artoria bowed deeply, solemnly and earnestly expressing her gratitude to Zhou Yao.
If Zhou Yao hadn't been there this time, the war might have ended with Uruk's withdrawal.
But one thing is certain, the losses and casualties of our side must be much higher than they are now.
It's not just the reason why Zhou Yao burned down the Uruk Vanguard, no one knows what Gilgamesh will do until then.
If he hadn't fought with Zhou Yao, Gilgamesh would probably have gone to the front line of the battlefield in person.
Then it will be her turn to fight Gilgamesh.
The difference is. At that time, the stage would be changed to the University of Britannia.
When I think about it, I can't help but be afraid, what will happen to the University of Britain, which has no defense mechanism, if it is attacked by a sword......
So, Artoria is very grateful to Zhou Yao.
"I just did what I had to do." Zhou Yao said modestly.
"If there is anything I can help in the future, please don't be polite, I will do my best to repay this kindness." Artoria said.
"Father says so, but you'd better not get an inch."
Zhou Yao was just about to speak, when he saw Lei Duoer leaning over with oppressive force and threatening in a low voice.
It's full of "thinking about my father".
"If you're really in trouble, you can come to me."
As if she felt that her behavior was not good, she improved her attitude and added.
Then he returned to Artoria's side without waiting for Zhou Yao's answer.
"That's right. It seems that you haven't taken the JAE yet, but we at Britannia University welcome you to join us. Artoria said with a smile.
"Well, I'll ...... Considered. β
looked at the side with a gloomy face and expressed, "If you dare to come, I will kill you." This kind of artistic conception. Zhou Yao nodded, did not agree, and did not refuse on the spot.
Truth be told, the University of Britain was not on his radar.
It's not because it's not good enough, it's because it lacks a sense of crisis.
This time it was purely unexpected.
As Artoria has said before, there is probably no more peaceful first-tier university than the University of Britannia.
Because the corresponding ten kings are no different from a family at all.
If he chooses a first-tier university, Zhou Yao wants to choose the one full of a sense of crisis and adventure.
This also requires him to have a better understanding of the university system before he can make a decision.
Take the Hulian Bei who is silently waiting. Zhou Yao waved goodbye to the two.
"I don't think it's likely, but I'd better mention it just in case."
Before taking off, Artoria suddenly spoke.
"What's the matter?" Zhou Yao asked suspiciously.
"Don't kidnap my Hulianbei. I always feel that since you came back, her good opinion of you has increased. β
Artoria warned solemnly, with a hint of doubt.
Ah, probably because of the half-dragon transformation, the breath of the dragon species has become stronger...... Zhou Yao couldn't help but think.
"Sure enough, you beast, you won't even let go of a dragon." Redore said disdainfully.
"Why use it, no, I wasn't a beast before that." Zhou Yao complained speechlessly.
"Goodbye, then."
Finally, Hulianbei took off.
Bidding farewell to the University of Britain and the Old World, Zhou Yao set off to return to the Central Province.
"Master."
Blowing the scenery in the sky, Sakuya quietly appeared beside Zhou Yao.
"The second stay over there can only be talked about later." Zhou Yao said lightly.
The second stay is still in the middle of cultivation, and I don't know when it will end.
So the two of them had to go back first.
After being silent all the way, Zhou Yao finally returned to the Central Province.
Landing on the westward flow transportation line, the surrounding is empty and uninhabited.
"Woo~"
Hu Lianbei didn't know when she changed into Lori's form and pulled Zhou Yao's corner.
"What's wrong, Xiaolian?"
Because it is called Hulian Bei, he calls it Xiaolian.
For such an affectionate title, Hulianbei's face flushed, and she looked unusually cute.
Then she lowered her head and stuffed the things in her hand, turned around, and without waiting for Zhou Yao to react, she turned back into a dragon form and flew into the sky. (To be continued.) )
