After a little hesitation, the expressionless Canette still didn't choose to stop. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He intended to come at his own pace.

"I can tell, sir. Canette spoke slowly, her face full of confidence: "Your daughter's previous letters have been sent to you. ”

The paladin remained unmoved. Maybe it's just a guess anyone can make.

"Isn't that enough?" Carnet glanced at the photo on the paladin's desk that didn't seem to have time to put away: it was a picture of him with his daughter Ash.

Such a happy group photo is placed on the desk......

It's hard to believe that this could be a father who doesn't love his daughter.

"Well, I'll say it again: and you put away your daughter's letters, and read them often. However, he did not reply...... Why is that?" Carnet glared at the paladin, "and doing all this behind someone's back." Why can't anyone know? ”

“...... Sure enough, you can't hide this from the Demon Hunter, Mr. Cannet. The paladin looked at Canette silently, seeming to agree with him.

"In that case, can you tell me about it?" Canette maintained that seemingly unsurprised expression, but was already relieved inside: "Since you love your daughter so much, there is no reason to deliberately avoid her." ”

"There's a reason for it, sir...... My name is Zerata Albert. The paladin paused slightly, "Just call me Zerata." ”

“...... Cannet. The witcher immediately introduced himself.

One of the effects of the Eurasian Empire was that people did not have the habit of using surnames as they had in the past. Whether you use your first name or last name generally depends on the attitude of the other person.

But generally speaking, if the other party does not specifically state, the name is used by default. Surnames are rarely used. But if the other party has a high status, they generally use their surname.

Nowadays, many people don't say their last name when they introduce themselves.

"Then Mr. Cannet. Zerata's hand was still on her daughter's letter, as if in pain: "Before we start talking...... Can you tell me what else you can see in me?"

"What does this mean?" the witcher didn't quite understand the strange request.

"I want to use you to see my thoughts better. After a moment of silence, Zerata said, "Can you do me a favor?"

"Can I think of this as a mind-reading request?" the Demon Hunter emphasized, "True mind-reading...... And not just see through the idea. ”

The paladin was silent, and Carnet took it as a tacit.

He coughed, causing the MONOCULUS to suddenly turn blue.

In the state of Demon Hunter Blue Pupil, he can use illusion to force people to do certain things, or perform precise mind reading. The so-called accurate mind reading is not only to perceive thoughts, but to know exactly what the other person is thinking.

...... In the case that the other party's resistance is too strong, it may not work.

"I don't know exactly what you're trying to do, but maybe it's something that is inconvenient to say...... You don't know what you're really thinking, so you want me to help you see it. Canette said to the paladin quietly, "That's probably it, isn't it?"

"That's true. The paladin's expression seemed to be getting more and more tired: "There are some things, even prayer is incomparably calming the heart. ”

What is it that you don't want to say anyway...... Cannet's stiff neck twitched slightly: even if you read your mind, you can only see fragmented thoughts, and it's hard to say whether they can be pieced together.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

A parchment scroll that tells the story of ancient memories.

Space-time, change-based magic, and vocalization.

Cauter: Manus. Race & Gender: Human, Male.

"Lucina?" Manus stood on the side of the breeze-blown mountain and looked at the mountain stream opposite with satisfaction: "You see, from a high place, how wide the field of vision is. ”

"......" Lucina sat quietly on the ground, holding her ball in a daze.

Manus looked at his adopted daughter and felt worried.

The child was too gloomy to speak.

When you meet the living, you always have to hide behind me.

And his eyes have been dull, and he immediately began to panic without holding the ball in his hand.

Can't go on like this......

Manus already knew a rough idea of how Lucina had spent more than two hundred years of abuse in the dungeon, and he was not very confident that he would be able to erase these shadows. He felt that he might need some time to let her be quiet.

To this day, Lucina still sleeps as if she is chained. Manus was puzzled by how this Aya was able to escape alone, and he also opened the nether iron shackles on his body. It stands to reason that such shackles are meant to be locked, and there is no keyhole.

The only possible explanation is that this Aya was born with a mana strong enough to get rid of the oppressive effects of the Netherworld's iron shackles on her Transfiguration magic. She may have managed to separate herself at that time, and thus break free from the shackles.

The theory of separating flashes is to use the flashing technique of specially constructed mana models to break free from shackles and ropes, and only let yourself flash. But the difficulty is so high that almost no one succeeds. And...... Nether Shackles will also greatly restrain the caster, preventing them from being released. Of course, once you fail, the body will be stopped by the shackles and suffer a huge impact.

If so, this kid will have a great talent for being a mage...... As long as she knows how to control her power.

And thinking about it, Manus thought about how to make Lucina happy.

"Lucina, good boy, come. Manus smiled and beckoned to Aya, and Lucina looked at him and walked over with her head bowed without saying a word.

"Don't keep your head down and look at people, kid. Manus cleared his throat and tried to act mysterious: "I heard that this mountain has a mountain god who likes to be a good child. You ask something to the valley and he will respond to you - be careful not to shout too loudly, it will become an echo. ”

"Really?" Lucina's innocent expression told of doubt.

"Really. Manus nodded.

"Y-Hello...... Lucina asked in a whisper.

"Hello!" Manus secretly unleashed his vocalization, allowing his own response to really come from the mountain stream.

"Wow......" Lucina looked at the mountain stream in surprise, her face flushed with excitement.

So in this way, Manus was pleased to accompany Lucina, who was cheering up, and played the role of the mountain god for a while.

Seeing his daughter happy seemed to make him feel the happiest thing.
