416 On the eve of the war
Salamdo's speech ended quickly, and to be honest, there was nothing to say.
What is going to happen, people know, and what needs to be explained or asked about is only a short time. After Claire left, Salamdo, who went up, in addition to emphasizing Claire as his personal belongings, only said polite words such as New Year's Goodbye.
Not long after, the speech ended, and the people gradually dispersed.
"Great, Her Royal Highness is on our side!"
"Ah, yes, I thought at first that His Highness would be worried about Leliaga. ”
"Hmph, those guys are really sinners who shouldn't exist in the world, and even their own people think they are guilty. ”
"Hahaha, it seems that we are bound to win this war. ”
"Yes, isn't it easy to defeat such a country?"
"I'm really looking forward to His Majesty's performance in the New Year. ”
"Yes, yes, last year's performance was really amazing, it's hard to imagine that a king has such high acting skills. ”
"I wonder if there will be a sequel to last year's show this year......"
The voices of the exchange, coming from the departing crowd, were overwhelmingly disparaging of Relaga and the praise of Balova, and had little effect other than to make a few more sensible conservatives and occasional tourists express their dissatisfaction.
In such a country, it is all too normal to exalt oneself and belittle others.
"Ah...... I thought it was fun, but I didn't expect to hear him say something inconsequential, and what happens in this country has nothing to do with us, right, guest?"
Rubit was still clinging to Chen, she wrapped one arm tightly, padd her feet, and walked side by side with Chen on the street.
She is not very tall, and even after all these years, she has not grown much. Chen has always been very curious about this, because, all the rabbit-eared people he has seen before are basically petite and cute types, and they rarely meet very mature people.
(probably...... This is because rabbits are relatively miniature animals in their own right...... Some of the rabbit-eared people have also been affected...... )
Chen, so thought.
"As I said, you don't have to call me a guest in the future. ”
Regarding the fact that the girl held herself and refused to let go, Chen had given up preaching.
Now, Ai Jia is not there, Lin is not there, there is no object of jealousy, Rabitt is holding like this, to be honest, Chen himself must be welcome, and the distance between the two is shortened, which is also convenient to restrain the girl's behavior, and it is good to control her.
However, he has always felt a little awkward about this title.
"Hehe, it must be a little unaccustomed to suddenly asking people to change their names, you let me be familiar with it again. ”
As soon as the little girl is coquettish now, she rubs her head against Chen's arms, fluffy hair and dangling rabbit ears, and her cute heart is about to melt, and before she knows it, she will agree to her request.
“...... All right. ”
"Hee-hee, guest, I know you're the best~"
Rubit smiled happily, stood on tiptoe, leaned over his head, and kissed Tatsu's side cheek.
“...... Pay attention to the image. ”
Chen's face was slightly red, and he turned his face and said something.
"Hee-hee, you're shy, you're so cute. ”
“......”
"Actually, if you can, it's not impossible to need Rubbit as a pillow at night. ”
Seeing that her offensive seemed to be very effective, Rebit followed closely and took further action, she desperately stood on tiptoe, her mouth pressed to Chen's ear.
Exhaled like an orchid, and the Taoist language was like the wind, which caused Chen to be numb for a while.
"You can do whatever you want~"
“!!!”
Tatsuna's hand pressed on Rubbit's shoulder, gently pushing it away, widening the distance between the two.
At this moment, Ribbit's eyes dimmed, and she knew that she had failed.
"Rubitt ...... That one...... We can't be ...... like that."
Staring into Ribbit's eyes, Tatsu said.
"Why ......"
The girl asked in a low voice, hanging her head.
"I think...... Our relationship hasn't gotten to that point yet......"
“......”
"Rubbit?"
"Hahahaha...... Not to the point where it was...... Other words...... You don't like me anymore......"
Rebit raised her head, with tears in the corners of her eyes and a slightly sad smile on her face, holding back her tears from falling, girl, in Chen's familiar tone, said the following words.
"I'm sorry...... I...... It's so self-inflicted......"
"No...... It's not like that......"
"I ...... I'm causing you trouble again......"
"Wait a minute...... RUBI ......!!!!"
Rubit shook his hands and directly broke free from Chen's control, obviously a rabbit, but she showed strength similar to that of a tiger.
"I'm leaving. ”
“......”
"Probably...... There will be no next meeting......"
"Wait ......"
"Goodbye ......"
People, skipping it, I don't know if it's their own hallucination, in the blink of an eye, Chen seems to see a fleeting white light.
It's warm, but it seems to be sad.
When I opened my eyes again, there was no shadow of a girl in front of me.
...............................................................................................................
"Uh......h Exhausted...... I'm tired ......"
Under the protection of several knights, Salamdo made his way to the entrance to the palace.
Although today's speech did not take much time, there are many things that need to be dealt with after that. For example, signing autographs for his fans, checking the situation in the army, and discussing the matter of sending troops with the following generals, etc., it took a whole day to be busy, and when he came here, it was already midnight.
"Your Majesty, you have worked hard. ”
A soldier in front of the door saw Salamdo walking over and quickly knelt down.
"Ah, you have worked hard, get up. ”
With a casual hello, Salamdo walked inside.
Footsteps, stopped, and suddenly thought of something The little king turned around.
"Oh, by the way, has a little blonde girl been here today?"
"Forehead ......"
"I promised her yesterday that I would open all the places in the palace to her, but yesterday she was too late, and today she went out in a hurry, and I didn't say hello to you, has she been here today?"
“......”
"Huh, what's wrong?"
"Today...... There was indeed a girl who came...... Say it, Your Majesty, you promised...... She can come and go as she pleases the palace......"
"Oh, what about later?"
Seeing that the soldier mentioned the tide, Salamdo temporarily stopped the idea of moving forward and began to ask.
"Subordinate...... Guilty ......"
Since Salamdo said this, it shows that Xi really has something to do with the king, and from the fact that they can enter and leave the palace at will, the relationship between them seems to be very unusual.
The soldiers were scared.
Although their king was a relatively kind monarch, no matter how good he was, he was still the king, and the girl who was very important to her was by no means something that a soldier like him could offend.
(Speaking of which, the girl is pretty and good-looking...... Won't it ...... It's His Majesty's lover...... )
"Huh?"
"Subordinate...... Thought she was the one who came to make trouble...... So...... Drove her away......"
“......”
"Subordinate...... Sin deserves death......"
“......”
Salamdo paused, he looked at the soldier and paused for a long time.
"Really...... Forget it......"
"Your Majesty...... ...... next?"
"I didn't tell you earlier that it was my mistake, just pay attention next time. ”
Without further words, Salamdo turned and walked inside with the soldiers.
After all, the soldiers cannot be blamed for this.
"Ah...... The next time I see Shio, I'll have to apologize, ah, by the way, pass my orders. ”
"Listen. ”
The knights behind immediately knelt down.
"Transfer the power of the army to Heiya, block the news of the battle, and within three days, take Reliaga. ”
"Yes. ”
One of the knights answered, and soon disappeared into the night.
"I hope ...... This time...... The elemental gods are on our side......"
