"What's wrong?" Anusen looked at Ceresya in a daze, "Is there anything special?"

"The letter on your waist ......" Mad Dog opened his mouth before continuing, "It doesn't seem to be there just now." ”

What letter?, Anusen was a little stunned until he lowered his head.

As Mad Dog said, a letter is pinned to his waist.

He pulled out the letter and looked around warily. Anusen didn't see anyone nearby.

"How did this letter come to be here......" The knight gripped the envelope tightly and walked towards the reef.

"Nobody has ever been here. Mad Dog immediately answered: "At least I didn't see it...... But Mr. Knight, you don't feel a letter in your belt?"

"I'm pretty sure there isn'......" Anusen looked around again, and suddenly remembered the experience that Seresya had mentioned: "Maybe it's the hooded man...... The other people in the inn couldn't see or hear him, couldn't they......?

"You mean he also hides his presence from us? Mad Dog scoffed: "Thinking about it, he might even have been in our bedroom all the time - probably lying in your bed at night." ”

"Forget it, shut up. The knight looked at the letter in his hand: "I'm curious what he wants to tell us...... The letter was also sealed with fire paint."

"If it were me, I wouldn't have used the envelope at all. Mad Dog stepped forward: "I'll just shove the letter into the mouth of some knight who is standing stupidly." ”

"You're too close, stay away from me. Anusen felt a wave of nausea and pushed Seresa away.

He looked at the fire paint on the sealed envelope, and the heraldic pattern on it made his heart beat as if it had been hit hard: it was a clearly recognizable spiral tower.

Reluctant not to open the dusty memories, Anusen's breathing was extremely disturbed.

Spiral Tower...... How could it be......

Mortally tainted by the blood of the Curse, the girl with the glow of the Holy Feather fell from the spiral tower with a wail—desperately suppressing her emotions, Anusen, who was stirred by the dusty memories, gasped for breath.

With a roar in his head, Anusen, who was staring at the heraldic insignia, only felt his hands tremble. However, just as he was about to pick himself up and open the envelope, a powerful slap was slapped on the left side of his face.

Before he could react to the pain on the left side of his face, the right side of Arnusen's face suffered as well.

"Hey, Mr. Knight?" Seresa tentatively slapped her left cheek again, "Are you sober?"

"What are you doing?" Anusen, who realized it later, finally came back to his senses, covered his face and yelled angrily: "What kind of nerves?"

"Oh, sorry, sorry. Seresa laughed triumphantly, "I thought you had fallen for some kind of illusion, so I quickly gave you three slaps full of friendship." ”

"Illusion fart!" Anusen rubbed the left side of his cheek and glared at him fiercely, "Your hands are heavy enough...... It's just a gas, isn't it? It's definitely a dissatisfaction with me, right? Okay, now you're satisfied, right?"

"Don't get me wrong, Mr. Knight. Mad Dog shrugged helplessly: "There is no personal grudge between us, just now this is just my obligation as a companion." ”

"It's the first time I've heard of such an obligation for a companion...... knight was tired, "Forget it, I'm really having a convulsion before arguing with you...... I'd better read the letter. ”

"Hey...... Does it hurt so much?" Mad Dog smuggled: "Why don't you give me a little as a testimony to our friendship?"

"Excuse me, then you can take it yourself. Looking at the fire lacquer coat of arms of the spiral tower, a pain slowly emerged as the scar was revealed.

"Is there anything special?" Mad Dog leaned in, "It's unusual to stare at the fire paint on the envelope for so long." But it looks like it's just a tall tower with a strange shape...... You've been there before, and you're impressed? You're so responsive, I guess nothing good is going on in that tower. ”

“...... It's nothing. Anusen sighed: he hadn't told anyone anything about his past since he brought Ellia to the Sixteenth World - but what happened on the spiral tower was known only to him and the Holy Maiden Orga.

Maybe it's just a coincidence...... Anusen had calmed his nerves a little: though he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't agree with the irritating move. But Seresya's slaps did successfully calm him down, and really took him out of the "illusion" of memories quickly.

"Look at your tone, your expression, your sigh - that is, you don't want to tell me for a while, right? Mad Dog's red eyes stared directly at the knight, "I'll still say that, I'll be there when you want to say it - as long as it's not too boring and long." ”

"Then you'll have to wait a long time, so don't get your hopes up. Slightly moved, Anusen flipped the envelope over and used the dagger at his waist as a letter opener to open it from the back.

He reached into the envelope, but pulled out a small note. Before unfolding the note, the knight looked around again.

"There's no need to be so cautious, knight. Mad Dog snatched the note: "A truly shrewd assassin would not be noticed, let alone something that is inherently invisible?"

"It's always good to be cautious. Anusen couldn't agree.

"But our cautious knight did not notice that a letter had been pinned to his belt. Mad Dog grinned, "Worthy of our perceptive Mr. Knight." ”

"Open the letter quickly. Annun was not going to raise the bar with him, he was anxious to know the contents of the letter—the coat of arms of the spiral tower made him look forward to it.

Unhurriedly unfolding the note, Ceresya deliberately made a mess and turned sideways to block the knight's view.

"Oh...... I seem to know why this note is pinned to your belt and not mine. As soon as the knight uttered a syllable, Mad Dog, who had quickly glanced at the note, raised the note behind him: "Take it and see this, and you will know how wise my advice is." ”

Suspiciously, he took the note, and there was only a simple sentence written on it: Go to Jiuquan Town in the Permafrost Land, and maybe you will find a clue to your daughter.

"Jiuquan Town?" Anusen thought of its location on the map, "I remember it was ......"

"The only place to settle down before going deep into the inaccessible tundra. It is also a gathering place for mercenaries and merchants. I'm surprised you don't know this. Given the opportunity to ridicule, Seresa took over: "If your daughters have arrived in the Land of Permafrost, there is a real chance that they will find out something. ”

"I can't trust this guy. Anusen shook his head, "God knows what kind of conspiracy he's planning: 'maybe' will find a clue to my daughter?" ”

"I didn't say you should trust him. Mad Dog snorted, "Except that he seems to want to direct us there...... It's better to have a destination than to wander around without a goal, okay, Mr. Knight?"

"I think this guy knows where my daughter and Lolo are, but he doesn't want to tell them out of some shady secret. Some of the distraught knights put the note in an envelope and tucked it into the bosom of their coats: "Maybe he summoned the Shadow Demons and captured them." ”

"Either way, there's no reason for us to stay here, stupidly stagnant. The mad dog kicked away a rock: "In my opinion, Jiuquan Town is worth the risk...... Besides, your original destination is the Land of Permafrost. ”

After a moment's hesitation, Anusen finally decided to accept the offer: "Let's go to the docks to find the search ship, Seresya." ”

"Well, indeed. Mad Dog agreed: "If you don't look for a boat in advance, you may not be able to find it tomorrow." ”

"We're leaving today. ”

"I hope you can't find the boat today!" cried the mad dog.

Ignoring the constant whining, the knight turned his back to the mad dog and hurried out of the shallows.
