The words landed, and both of them fell silent. Lusa looked dejected as a result.

"Uh...... I didn't mean to hit you, Lusha. Mad Dog was the first to break the silence: "It never hurts to be suspicious. I've been tossing and turning like this, and it's become a habit for a long time. ”

"It's fine. Aya shook her head and raised her hood slightly, "It's that I'm thinking too little." ”

"It's good that you understand - besides, there's another thing I've been thinking about these days. Seresa clenched her left fist and looked Lusa in the eye, "You used to go to the knight's house once a year, right?

"Hmm. Lusha nodded: "My sister usually stays at home. ”

"Then you can't summon his demon Naro these days, can you?"

"I tried this morning, but it still doesn't work. Lusha shook her head in confusion.

"That's right. Now that he has gone to the Frozen Wasteland...... There are probably only three kinds of endings. Mad Dog coughed dryly and said his thoughts: "Killed by the resurgent Eurasian army, corrupted by black ice." And...... What did the hooded man do. Probably for some reason, he couldn't erase that part of his memory like we did. In order to prevent him from contacting us and ruining his plans, the Hooded Man absolutely sealed the elven envoy - and at worst, killed him outright. Come to think of it this way, what other nonsense would you believe about lifting the curse?"

Mr. Cyberdart...... It's going to be fine. Lusa's tone was surprisingly firm: "He's the strongest Ranger I've ever seen." Every time he was in danger, he managed to escape. ”

"Maybe he does have strength, but strength alone can't solve real adversity. Recalling the many dangers he had encountered during the assassination mission, Mad Dog sighed shortly: "Many things are solved by luck in the end. People who seem to be strong are often just lucky - but luck is also part of strength. ”

Raising his eyes to look at the silent Lusha, Mad Dog continued: "Just listen to what I say, it's all crooked anyway. No matter how much Lady Luck favors someone, that guy's luck will always run out one day. It is likely that the elf has suffered from the seedling, and we can only pray for him and try to share some luck with him. ”

“...... Well. Lusha's tone was slightly depressed: "Brother, which god do you believe in?"

"To be exact, I don't believe anybody. Also too lazy to study any religion. Seresa smiled, "But there are always times when people need spiritual sustenance, and they will hope for a god to pray and pray - like me, I occasionally pray to Lady Luck." ”

"Many Assassin Orders seem to have their own gods. Lusha looked up, "Didn't you belong to the group you belonged to?"

"Ever since I broke away from the Assassin Order with gold, I haven't been a member of any group. Seresa narrowed her eyes: "Whatever I do, it's just for myself." ”

"But you said you hated that kind of life......" Lusha's tone was puzzled.

"yes, disgusted. Mad Dog felt a tightness in his chest: "Isn't this an opportunity, and he escaped with the knight." ”

"Why didn't you leave sooner?" Aya asked cautiously, "You hate the work of assassins so much, you can ...... it"

"yes, why?" the mad dog smiled self-deprecatingly, "How do I know?"

A sense of loss welled up in his heart, and he could feel his expression stiffen: why not run away from the life of licking blood from the tip of a knife? He had no idea—not even how he had survived all these years. Maybe it's the fear of change, maybe it's the disappointment in my own tattered heart, and the belief that I can only survive by this killing. Or maybe it's a former family influence......

Damn, stinky old man! The mad dog was furious at the thought of this: You ruined my life...... If it weren't for you, I would be living the life I want to live by now - opening a tavern with my sister and living a fulfilling day.

Every day he drank heavily, killed people, and drank again -- he fell into bed drunk. Then he kills, drinks, and kills...... Day after day, the process of self-depravity is repeated.

Damn, that's boring...... Mad Dog clenched his fists angrily: the thought of his father made his hatred spread rapidly in his heart.

His father was the first person he had killed, and he still vividly remembered the touch of the sharp knife piercing his heart. Since then, he has not washed the blood from his hands, allowing his soul to become darker and darker, and the smell of blood to accumulate stronger.

"Brother?" Lusha's somewhat uneasy tone brought the mad dog's thoughts back to reality, "Are you alright......?" They didn't even hear me speak. ”

"Ah...... It's okay. Looking at his sister, Mad Dog coughed dryly and smiled again: "What did you just say?"

"The black ice is gone, just now. Lusha pointed to the ground, "Turned into black smoke......"

"That's definitely a cast mark, the same one Eddes saw around the corner of the stairs. Mad Dog turned his head and looked at the back door of the kitchen: "Stay here and wait for the guards, I'll go out and have a look." ”

"Hey, the ......" felt Lusha suddenly pull at the corner of her clothes, and Mad Dog turned her head, "What's wrong?"

“...... It's nothing. Be careful. Lutha let go of her little hand, looking like she wanted to say something.

"Your brother and I have always been very careful. Mad Dog grinned and walked briskly to the back door.

Walking into the backyard, he looked out at the snow around him. Surprisingly, a series of footprints stretched out of the back door, leading straight to the fence.

Did you flee into the woods...... Mad Dog muttered in his heart: judging from the fact that the footprints did not coincide, only one person left from here. Where are the other two?

This is supposed to be the one who poisoned it. The mad dog crouched down and probed the footprints with his fingers: it hadn't been buried much by the snow, indicating that it was fresh. At most, it was left five or six minutes ago.

You'll have to catch up and see...... Mad Dog stood up and hurried towards the fence. Leaning against the wall and looking out, Seresya's heart shuddered: at the end of the footsteps, stood the Corruptor who had just stared at him.

Is this the bastard who poisoned Lao Tzu? With a burst of anger in his heart, the mad dog climbed over the wall, drew his sword and rushed straight at the enemy.

To his surprise, the man did not turn and run away. Instead, he stood silently, staring at the mad dog with his blue pupils.

Don't you want to run away? Mad Dog lunged forward, making a stabbing feint.

Just as he had expected, the man jerked out his weapon and parried. Taking advantage of the gap, Mad Dog spun the arm axis and stabbed a sword again.

The enemy dodges sideways and jumps back to open up the distance. It was only at this moment that Mad Dog saw the weapon in the man's left hand.

The other bayonet is exactly the same as the one I own.
