Chapter 63: The Beginning of the Carnival
The two of them, who had received the information, didn't stop long and headed towards the cathedral, where Kevin was now waiting for them, but it was precisely because of this that the two missed a very important piece of information.
"But that 'variety' is really beautiful."
"It's okay, it's a little worse than those well-known beauties."
"You haven't seen Duke Dunant's expression after seeing 'Change'."
"What do you mean?"
"Well~ This is also something I accidentally saw once, I happened to go home that day, and I actually saw Duke Dunant on a trip, and at that time, 'Variety' seemed to have just finished the performance and was ready to go back."
"And then the two of them met?"
"Of course, didn't you see Dunant's shocked expression, I've never seen that otaku duke so serious when I'm so old."
"It should have been love at first sight, right?"
"I think so."
……
"What? Duke Dunant, he's missing?! "Ah Zhai's first feeling when he heard the news was disbelief, Dunant with the protection of the 'Sword Fox' should be the safest person except for the queen, and now Kevin will tell himself that he is gone, isn't this a lie?
"That's the way it is, this morning when Old Man Philip went to his room to wake him up, he disappeared, and all he found on the table was a note that said 'Something needs to be done.'" Kevin spread his hands and said that this was indeed the truth.
Dunant needs to play a role in the next scene, Kevin also knows, he can't make such a joke with Ah Zhai, so, this thing is true? "Have you checked the handwriting on the note?"
"The old man, what he personally checked, is indeed Dunant's own handwriting." Kevin's answer made Otaku rule out the possibility that Dunant was kidnapped, so ...... What could be more important than Jihua that is going on right now, for Dunant to abandon his current responsibilities and accomplish it?
"Did you send someone to find it?"
"Someone from the Intelligence Department went looking for it." Dunant's disappearance is a mess for Ah Zhai and others, but it is even more of a disaster for Richard, without Duke Dunant in front, everything he does will be unjustified and completely ineffective, so when he found out that Duke Dunant had disappeared, he had already sent someone to look for it, "The inside of the royal city, Grantelle, and even the courtyard avenue and the Albert Circle Avenue have been found, but unfortunately there is no Dunant." ”
"What about the airship flat and the forest near Grantell?"
"There's no record of Dunant boarding the ship there, and as for the forest...... With the speed of those in the Intelligence Department, it will take at least a week to get results. Kevin spread his hands again, "But if we wait a week, our jihua will be disrupted, right?" ”
"Isn't it disrupted now?" I also empathize with Kevin's helplessness, but since everything has happened, there is no point in thinking about it.
Ah Zhai leaned against the wall and thought for a while, then said to Kevin, "...... The switch you put under Richard's psyche can be turned on. ”
"Oh~ Are you ready to change Jihua?" Originally, this was just a dark chess set up by Kevin by Ah Otaku just in case, and if Jihua went well, it would never be used, but the current situation, it had to be like this.
"In the current situation, one more help can have one more chance of winning." Ah Zhai pointed to something, and said words that only the two of them could understand, and then turned his head to look at Klos, "Klos, you go back to the palace immediately, talk to Queen Bixia about Jihua changes, and let the guards and researchers in the ruins withdraw." ”
"yes, I see." Kross nodded, but then reacted, "So where are you going?" ”…,
"Me? Naturally, I went to the forest to get Duke Dunant back. ”
……
In the depths of the forest outside the royal city, a blonde woman dressed in a revealing dancing girl costume was standing next to a large tree, as if waiting for someone.
"Smack!" The sound of a tree branch being cut indicates the arrival of another person.
"You're here." The woman turned to look at the person who came, and couldn't help but smile, and then spat out the name of the person the entire intelligence department was looking for, "Dunant." ”
"Humph! It's me, naturally! Dunant was holding a thin sword at this time, his black hair was meticulously combed, and he completely lost his usual appearance of an otaku duke, "I think your heart is about to break when you think about it!" Phenanthrene! Sharp! Second! Contrary to Dunant's words, there was no expression on his face, as if he were looking at a dead man.
"Really? That's really an honor~" The blonde woman, no, it should be that Philia didn't seem to hear Dunant talking the opposite at all, and she covered her mouth with her hands and laughed in a low voice, I have to say that Filia was really beautiful when she laughed, with her charming eyes and a flush as if she was drunk, no wonder Dunant liked her in the first place......
"Put away that expression." Dunant still didn't waver at this time, raised his sword and pointed at Philia, obviously, he came today with the intention of killing the other party.
Seeing Dunant like this, Philia gradually restrained her smile, lowered her hands, and asked, "So you came here today to kill me?" ”
"......" Dunant didn't speak, but the squatting action said it all.
"Hehehehehehe." Who knew that Philia laughed even louder at this time, "Dunant, Dunan, you are really still as willful as you were at the beginning!" ”
"What do you mean?" Dunant asked with a cold face.
"What else could it mean?" Philia pointed to Dunant, "Just like when you killed your cousin and sister-in-law ten years ago in order to find me, you should have known that you couldn't live without you in the royal city now, but you still came to kill me, such a wayward guy still has the face to ask what it means, it really laughs at me." ”
“…… Half a day is enough time to solve you. Dunant didn't care at all about what the other person said, or just pretended not to care.
"Yes, half a day is indeed enough." The wind picked up, and the leaves around Philia flew up with the wind, and then ...... Stabbed at Dunan at a very fast speed, "Half a day is enough time for the 'Sword Emperor' to reach the bottom to lift the seal!" ”
"What !!" The attack of the leaves was easily resisted by Dunant, but the 'Sword Emperor' in Philia's mouth couldn't help but make him frightened, it seemed that revenge would have to wait until the next time.
"Do you just find out now? It's late! It's a pity that Philia obviously won't let Dunan get out, leaves, branches, these things that can be seen everywhere in the forest are used by her like spears and swords at this time, so that Dunan can't find the slightest gap to get out, "Sure enough, as the intelligence said, your swordsmanship has regressed." ”
"Humph! It's still no problem to kill you. After Dunan dodged the attack of the leaves, a stab appeared directly in front of Philia, and the tip of the sword was only about a foot away from the other party, but unfortunately, Philia's sleeves danced, and he led the sword to the side, and then smiled at Dunan, who was close at hand, "That's really looking forward to it, hehehe~"
