"Say, who sent you?"
One of the riders, one of the two who had followed Jora earlier, was interrogating the sturdy-tied assassin in a textbook speech.
"No comment. β
The Assassin had already understood his fate, and he reacted with a contemptuous look at such a "stupid" interrogator.
"This bastard!" was so easily provoked by the rider who punched the assassin down, but was stopped by Jora as he tried to continue to vent his anger.
"Stop! He's tempting you to kill him! That's a good thing for him. The female knight, who had been wounded in the battle before, threw all her armor to the ground, and her beautiful figure was revealed only in a close-fitting gown with blood stains on it.
"I'll let you go, no conditions. I swear to you in the name of the Republic of Gloriland, the head of the Rangers. β
"But the captain! this man ......."
"Listen to me!
"Yes......"
Although reluctantly, the rider chose to carry out the orders of the regimental commander. He untied the ropes that bound the Assassin and looked at him with disdain.
"Get out, get out of here, the farther the better!"
Completely ignoring the rider's words, the loosened assassin moved his wrist, and his face twitched under the pitch-black turban, revealing only his eyes.
"The Commander of the Republic Patrol Regiments is indeed worthy of his reputation, although it seems that there are still many fools under his command. β
Ignoring the rider's anger, he turned around, tilted his head and said, "As an enemy, I admire a woman like you, so I will tell you one thing frankly, people like us, once the mission fails, ......"
"There's only one way out!"
In the next moment, a dark shadow had appeared in front of Jora. It was so fast that even the female knight couldn't react at all, and with such a way, it was impossible to imagine why he was caught, and the only explanation was that he was actually caught on purpose.
You only get one chance.
And he was out of arms.
With your fists? or with your feet?
Neither, compared to the risky stuff, the Assassins used the following methods:
Explode.
This is a "magic" that uses one's own body as a medium to exert great destructive power at the cost of tearing one's own body apart.
"Remember the names of the Dire Assassins!" his body began to become transparent before he could say this. Powerful magic gathered in his body. Irve, who had been completely ignored from the beginning, smacked her lips and spent 0.17 seconds estimating its power, which was probably enough to bury more than a hundred people, including Jora.
- Of course, I am not included here!
"Oh no!" By the time Jora reacted, she found that there was nothing she could do to stop her.
Looking at Jora's expression, a smile appeared on the Assassin's face, for an Assassin to achieve his own assassination mission with his life is really a great way to die, tragic, desolate! What could be more worthy of the name of an Assassin?
So, he smiled, and the smile seemed to freeze......
His smile froze! It was almost completely transparent, and the body that was about to burst apart was completely frozen in a crystalline ice coffin.
ββFor him, it was a gorgeous funeral.
"I thought we had been completely forgotten, and there was no chance for us to make a move here, but it seems that we have caught up. β
The voice came from not far away, there was not the slightest stain on the luxurious maid's garment, there was not the slightest panic or nervousness on the delicate face, and of course, there was no dirt or dust on it, and Irf pushed the glasses she had retrieved at some point, so she said.
"Why!" The riders, who suddenly sensed the danger of the situation, were about to jump in surprise, but the rider who had just interrogated the assassin was the most prominent.
"I should say thank you...... Or is it something else?" The same surprise on her face, but the panic she had just made was gone, and Ruora turned around and looked at the maid who had indeed been forgotten by herself, and who had been under her protection until now, and suddenly did not know what to say.
Apparently unaware of any flow of magical elements.
"Thanks, or whatever, that's fine. In short, your expression is funny. With a malicious smile, in fact, Irf really rarely smiled like this, she put her hand together, lifted the fluttering skirt, and bowed her head, "Our encounter here is a kind of fate, and you chose to rush into that kind of siege to save us, so it is enough, isn't it?"
Irf saluted Jora, then turned and walked away in the complete confusion of the riders.
Looking at the back of the maid walking away step by step, the knight commander suddenly noticed that this figure seemed familiar, yes, he had seen this person more than once, but because it was too far away, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he ......
"Wait! That maid seems familiar, haven't we all seen her, Captain!" the rider beside him expressed his question in that loud voice, and at the same time, let everyone here hear the question.
"Ah, yes, we've all seen her. Jora's eyes showed extremely complex emotions, thinking of the maid's previous behavior, she even began to wonder if everything just now was a scene directed by this woman, and whether she was played by her.
Not really.
Just now, it is just the story of a woman who sees another woman in danger, because of instinct and duty to save her, and then is saved by that woman.
What a woman to evaluate.
A smile suddenly appeared on Jora's face, and she smiled happily.
"That's the maid next to the boring merchant, no, the chief lady, right?" Turning his head and looking at the puzzled look on the rider beside him, the smile on Jora's face changed to helplessness, and then back to a smile, "Yes, that's the head lady-in-waiting of Leon Shutain, I remember the name ......"
Turning his head, the knight leader glanced at the back of the maid again and said.
"Irve, that's her name. β
......
......
......
"It's been a long time since I've heard the word 'hard to evaluate'. Irf thought to herself. That's right, since I started calling myself Irph, it's true that people have rarely been commented on like this.
Yes, since I gave up that name myself.
In comparison, the name Irf is noticeably softer and more like a woman's name.
Compared to the name "Isolde Tulufates", which sounds like a dignified killing.
Sure enough, we still prefer the current name.
"Oh yes, the commander of the Independent Rangers. Just before she was about to disappear from the knights' view, she suddenly turned around and said to Jora, not shouting loudly, but her voice could easily penetrate the trees and air, allowing Jora to hear clearly, "These Assassins are not from the Dire Assassins, make no mistake. β
With such a sentence, her next step made her appear directly on the road in the distance.
"Count the time, and I'm coming back soon, our current master. β
So, I really want to laugh, and sure enough, I haven't done anything worthwhile.
However, I still want to laugh.
The graceful curves appeared at the corners of her mouth again, and she couldn't help but start laughing again when she recalled her presumptuous smile on horseback just now.
Yes, it's not important, it's just that I finally understand how you felt.
Right, Riemann?
I'm kind of looking to see you.
"However, our current master is Leon, so let's put Riemann's affairs after that. The flirtatious voice and expression disappeared, and there was a serious look on her face that could only exist on Ilf's face on a normal basis, "However, the current Irf is not much different from the previous Isolde." β
She muttered to herself, subconsciously pushed her glasses, and once again took her steps.
The time is, the 23rd day of October, the year 499 of the New Earth calendar.
The destination is the "Historical Capital" of Hescorch, the outskirts of the "Great Library".
The task is to confirm the safety of the host's guest, the "little sister" of the witch clan, Chaoyan, and deliver the message of little Kilia to Beko, the current manager of the Great Library, and stay there to wait for the arrival of the master and his party from the north.
Quickly reliving the above in her head, Irf maintained her graceful and haughty posture, and a mesmerizing smile on her face.
Anyway, and Leon, the master hasn't seen him for a long time. It's been nearly two years since we last met, so after a long journey, what kind of interesting people and things will he bring this time, and how much trouble and fun will it bring to me?
"It's worth looking forward to. She licked her lips ambiguously.
"No, not at all. She frowned suddenly, and changed into the usual serious, dignified and serious appearance.
