"You're here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Suddenly feeling some kind of cold air coming over the hallway, the Guardian of the Black Tower sat upright and placed the unsewn Lucina doll on his lap.

The "......" door was gently pushed open, and a man in ice-white armor stood in the doorway, carrying a giant sword behind his back.

His armor was covered with frost, and his hand armor was completely frozen with ice ballast. With a hard squeeze, he crushed the ice condensed in his palm, causing the ice ballast to fall quickly and scatter all around.

The frost began to condense rapidly. His armor seemed to be in perpetual freezing.

And the cold was enough to freeze anyone who touched him. Even on a hot summer day, everything around you will constantly cool down and freeze.

This person is like the embodiment of winter and bitter cold. When you stay with him, you need to keep warm at all times.

Of course...... He wasn't always so unapproachable, either.

"Winter Knight Nauravos...... I've been waiting for you for a long time. The Guardian of the Black Tower gave a rare smile, clapped his hands slightly, and magically set up a tea set on the table in front of him: "Sit down." ”

"Just call me Ice Knight. A name that is too formal sounds awkward. "The Ice Knight's voice matches his appearance, but it's still rather gloomy. However, there was no chill in his voice: "Wait a moment, it will take some time to remove all the ice from my armor." ”

"You've just been through a battle, haven't you?" asked the silver-haired girl, despite her expression showing indifference.

"You're embarrassed to ask me about this kind of thing. I actually invited a guest without notifying the janitor. The Ice Knight was as calm as ever: "Take care of your men and let them not attack outsiders casually." I had no choice but to freeze a few people. Don't worry, it will be thawed soon. ”

The frost on the Ice Knight's armor began to dissipate, and he sat down in his chair and unceremoniously poured himself a cup of tea.

"It doesn't matter, people who are dead can't 'die' anyway. And when they see suspicious guys, they will go up and stop them. Even if it is a test of strength, it is necessary. And you should understand that if we really don't want you in, you'll have a chance to step through the gates of the Black Tower?" the silver-haired girl gave a mischievous smile and quickly disappeared, "Why don't you pour a glass for the ladies?" ”

“...... Scold. Nairavos snorted and poured a glass for the maiden. Just as he handed the teacup to the girl, the girl said to herself, "It would be better to add some ice." It's going to be a hassle for Lord Ice Knight. ”

"What's the difference between drinking this kind of black tea with ice and drinking red wine with ice?" Nairavos insisted on refusing, but still handed back the black tea at room temperature: "If you don't drink it, forget it." ”

"What a tasteless guy. The Guardian of the Black Tower smiled evilly, and his smile suddenly became meaningful: "Hmm...... Looks like you arrived here as soon as you got the news, right? ”

"It's really unreasonable, just emphasizing that I can't let Alice know what I'm going to do. Nairavos took a sip of black tea, his expression uninterested: "So, Namedia...... I've been investigating privately for a long time a hundred years ago, but I've almost forgotten about it today. If you hadn't reminded me, I probably wouldn't have remembered it. If Tina can be found, then Mellon must be able to find it too. ”

"Until then, I'm wondering, what are you going to do with Mellon. Anyway, you don't seem to be so reticent now, so it shouldn't be too difficult to explain, right?" the silver-haired girl changed the subject: "I'm talking ahead. Now there's a Merlon's soul fragment turned into a Celesya. He's not your target. The whereabouts of the original Mellon are now unknown. ”

"Lies are as fragile as thin ice. Nairavos took off his helmet and his expression was extremely cold: "He still exists in this black tower...... The line between reality and illusion is as clear as time. ”

"Why are you so sure?" the silver-haired girl still sat still, looking at him with interest, "I can't continue to talk to you about this topic without telling me what I think first." Don't you want to know Tina's whereabouts?"

"I came to Mellon to ask him something. Nairavos was silent for a moment, and then said directly: "That guy stole something from me, and I need to get it back." ”

"I see, it's a very common reason. When the girl heard this, she smiled meaningfully: "Is it convenient to ask what it is?"

"Inconvenient. As always, Nairavos was reluctant to explain: "It's your turn to make good on your promise." ”

"Oh well. The Guardian of the Black Tower seemed to be lost in thought, "You want to see Tina, don't you? As far as I know, she seems to have been captured and locked up somewhere along with that Sereya. ”

"Where is that place?" said Nairavos, too lazy to talk nonsense.

"Unfortunately, we don't know about it. The Guardian of the Black Tower lifted his silver hair slightly, and changed to a more casual sitting position: "But we ...... Actually, there are some clues. ”

"Hurry up. I still have things to do. Nairavos's tone was one of impatience.

"Alice, they'll be worried if they're gone for too long—right? in a hurry to get back?" said Nairavos's thoughts, and the silver-haired girl shook her head, "Stupid." How much time have you wasted on her for the sake of a slave?"

"Have you said enough?" Hearing her say bad things about Alice, the Ice Knight's tone seemed to be shrouded in a layer of coldness, becoming coercive and hateful: "'Only' a slave? ”

"You know...... In the quarter of an hour you stepped into the Black Tower, how long had it been outside?" The expression of the Guardian of the Black Tower seemed to suddenly turn indifferent: "It seems that someone is pretending to be you, disguised as the Ice Knight who once visited the Permafrost...... And the girls who followed you seem to have heard you talk to the Hooded Man about the Permafrost before. So those three guys ran to the frozen ground of the Thirteenth World. These months have passed in a flash. ”

"A few months?" Nairavos's expression seemed to be slightly shocked, but he still put on an expression of "who will believe your nonsense": "It's nonsense. I won't—"

"Is that really good?" the Guardian of the Black Tower stared at Nairavos meaningfully, clapping his hands lightly, causing a crystal ball to appear in front of him, "Just look at this." ”
