Chapter 15: The Return
The conversation continued into the evening, and Ralph used his twelve, nay, fifteen points of wisdom to ask all the questions he could think of more than twice, and finally came to the conclusion that "this kid really doesn't know anything." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 In the meantime, due to the mournful sound of "cooing" from Troy's stomach, the strong man also went downstairs and asked the store to send the famous "rose cake" in the capital of flowers and moons to fill his stomach a little, although as a result, these small but delicate pastries were more packed into his appetite.
The reason is simple.
Compared with Ralph's "one bite at a time", Troy seems a little overwhelmed by these "little things", having lived in a remote and scarce village all his life, and the teenager never imagined that there was food like a work of art in this world. After looking at it for a while, from time to time he turned his inquiring gaze to Ralph, who was swallowing, and seeing that he was not at all concerned with anything else while eating, Troy swallowed his saliva, and then carefully poked the crystal crust of the pastry with his finger, and he was a little startled by the unexpected softness, and quickly withdrew his finger.
Reaching out, trying, and withdrawing, he finally mustered up the courage to hold up the piece of pastry, which was only a quarter of the size of a palm, and looked at it solemnly for a while, before he opened his mouth and took a sip.
"Delicious!"
Showing strong feelings for the first time since he woke up, Troy immediately sped up eating, but in a few moments, a plate of pastries was eaten by the two of them.
"There is still such a delicious thing in the world. ”
"Hmph, don't you know? There's a lot more delicious than this. ”
"Oh. ”
“......”
And then it was that conversation.
......
"Squeak. Just as Ralph racked his brains and couldn't think of anything else to say, and was about to ask for a third time, "What do you like?" for the third time, the door opened.
"Ah, it's Brother Mo, you're back!" Finally looking forward to the "savior", his mouth was dry and his headache was splitting, and he vowed never to do this kind of "childcare" work again Ralph rarely mentioned a little enthusiasm, and was about to get up, but suddenly found that things didn't seem right, "Brother Mo?"
Seeing that Mohr's expression was different, he looked closely, his pupils were dilated, his eyes were blurred, there were still beads of sweat on his forehead, and his legs and arms were trembling slightly, as if something terrible had happened.
- What made Moore what he is now?
The next moment he opened the door, Moore, who had never fallen down even in the fierce battle, weakened his knees and was about to collapse to the ground.
"Ahh Seeing that something must have happened to his companion, Ralph couldn't care about anything else, and his huge body moved in an instant, letting Mohr, who had fallen forward, fall into his arms, but suddenly saw an armored arm behind him stretch out and grab Mohr's arm, as if to prevent him from falling directly to the ground.
"You?"
The doubts were overshadowed by concern, and Ralph, who was bound to figure it out in the past, knew the seriousness of the matter, and before he could ask more, the big man hurriedly picked up Mohr's thin body and put it firmly on the bed. And though he didn't know what was happening, Troy sat down and stood instead when he saw one man fall to the ground, looking to the other side with no curiosity or concern.
"Alas...... Let's go in and talk about it. ”
Some were moved by Ralph's concern, and outside the door, the heavily armored man sighed, stepped in, and waved the door shut. Then, the covered helmet was taken off and hugged at the waist, and the long bright golden hair that was not inferior to the woman was immediately scattered, revealing a face that contrasted sharply with the tall body and thick armor, and added seven points of beauty to the handsomeness of three points.
"My name is Kyle, and I'm a friend of Lance's and the captain of the garrison in the Flower Moon Capital. ”
One sentence indicates the identity and dispels doubts, and the next sentence immediately explains the reason for the visit.
"In the name of my lord Ekavia, I will assist you in exploring the camp of thieves and serving Lance...... Revenge!"
-- The revenge of death, the hatred of snow and unborn.
The calm words were suddenly torn apart by the suppressed anger, and in a word, he said the reason for coming, and even more expressed the boundless indignation at Lance's death, and the indignation came from deep feelings.
One is the squad leader of the mysterious organization, the other is the former general of the Peninsula Lord, what is the relationship between Lance and Kyle?
......
......
......
"Ha, you're saying that Brother Mo became like this just because he 'talked' to the lord of this place?
Settling Mohr - After discovering that he was not seriously ill but only overtired, Ralph scratched his head at the reason that the captain of the garrison, who had never met him and looked more like a "playboy", had exhausted Moll of his physical strength and energy to become what he was now.
He couldn't fully trust Kyle yet, not to mention, just a conversation can make an iron-forged man work like this, and whoever he talks to about this kind of thing is probably not believed either.
"So I said I wasn't done yet, and I can understand your concern about your companion's heart, but at least let me finish it, right?"
It was the third time that he had been interrupted, and the comment given by HeartDao Lance was correct, and Kyle, who was standing straight, did not change the color on his face, ignoring Ralph's gaze as if he was about to swallow him alive, and began to continue to speak in a calm tone.
"Ralph, from Lance, I knew you were a formidable warrior, but I didn't expect you to be a well-limbed, simple-minded, short-sighted, and rude and unprovoked man, as he said......"
The calm tone said something provocative, and his eyes were extremely contemptuous.
"What the hell are you talking about!"
Suddenly anger rushed to the heart, anger caused the loss of reason. Angry, it is not that he has been slandered, but that others have used the words of the dead Lance to judge him. Ralf stood up, and the next moment, he suddenly saw a strange sight in his wide-open eyes:
Darkness swallows up the sky, and the sun and moon have no light.
Blood soaked the earth, and no grass grows.
Death, what appears in front of your eyes is the color of death, severed limbs, rivers of blood, the terrible cries of the dead in your ears, and the suffocating hell scene in front of you.
In the face of such a terrifying scene, even Ralph, who has experienced hundreds of battles and experienced dozens of life and death moments, can't help but cringe.
The next moment, everything was gone, and the big man only felt that the soles of his feet were floating, and when he looked down, the land had disappeared, and it was a bottomless abyss!
"Ah......h
"Smack!"
With a long breath, he relieved himself after the darkness in front of him, but the world turned upside down in his vision, and he lost his strength in his legs and fell backwards. He had just stood up, but in the eyes of Troy, nothing had happened, and Ralph had already sat down on the ground.
It's a miracle not to sit on the floor.
"Believe it now?" the tone and gaze returned to normal at the same time, and there was some helplessness in Kyle's sharp eyes. The armor on his feet did not seem to be ordinary steel, and the sound of his steps was crisp rather than dull when he came into contact with the wooden floor, "I'm sorry, I think it would be better for you to experience it for yourself." ”
After a few steps in front of Ralph, Kyle saluted, then extended his palm, which was also covered in armor.
"Hahaha! I'm sorry for what!" One second he was still surprised, facing the palm of the man dressed as a knight, and the next second, the strong man from Northwestern Northwater immediately burst out laughing, and at the same time put his half-sized hand on it, "Hey, good boy, so awesome! What was that just now?"
"That's ......" Just as he was about to answer, Kyle suddenly realized that the strength coming from his hand was extremely great, and he was carelessly pressed by Ralph to make his body unstable and almost fell, "...... The strength is not bad, but even if you want to get back the field, you don't have to do it immediately, right?"
"Hey, hey. Kyle's serious words were answered by Ralph's wicked smile, people like him have never been able to hide their inner feelings, and they will not do unnecessary cover-ups, "It's not angry, it's just a return gift for you." ”
After a battle that didn't count as a battle, both of them got to know each other better. Understanding is the first step in building a relationship of trust.
"So, what the hell is this going on? Wait, what do you mean that Brother Mo has been talking to your lord in this situation?
Seeing that there was a complaint in the other party's tone, Kyle didn't explain directly, and the handsome and beautiful tall man turned around again, and walked back to the door where he had been standing, and then continued.
"It's different over there...... Well, then again, I just said that, well, I do want to apologize to you, I made it all out of my own makeover, and Lance never said it to me. ”
Somewhat embarrassed, he raised his hand, but lowered it again, and seeing that Ralph did not react to it, he continued to tell himself.
"I know you're very powerful, so I have to use a little trick to disturb your mind first, otherwise, I'm afraid it won't be effective with my momentum......"
"Momentum, you said that the disgusting scene I saw just now was because of your 'momentum'?"
"How? If you don't believe me, do you want to do it again?"
“...... Forget it. ”
"I'll be glad you said that. ”
Shrugging his shoulders, Kyle slackened in the middle of the conversation, his previous straight stance vanished, he moved his stiff neck again, and then simply leaned his body against the doorframe.
"Momentum is originally a 'weapon' that humans use to improve themselves, but it takes a little special skill to turn momentum into a weapon, such as ......" he snapped his fingers with an iron glove, "illusion." ”
"Illusion...... I see. With a slap on his head, those two words alone were enough to make Ralph understand what had just happened.
The so-called illusion refers to the magic that manipulates the will of others with magic power and makes people hallucinate illusions, strictly speaking, it is also a kind of magic, but due to the difficulty of comprehension, for the caster himself, etc., illusion has not yet been clearly classified, and even, many people can't even tell whether it is magic or not.
However, Mor's situation was different. The tone of the cowardly voice only lasted for a moment, and Kyle immediately became serious again, "How do you put it? Ralph, you don't know about my lord's lady, do you?"
The response was a nod of the chick's peck.
"I'm so envious that you don't know and don't have to do such a 'dangerous' thing......" muttered in a voice that only he could hear, this time shrugging his shoulders and spreading his hands, "Illusion is a wonderful thing, in a sense, it can manipulate people's hearts...... It seems too complicated to say that, so I'll just say it!"
The voice was unexpectedly loud, as if it frightened him, and after waving his hand to apologize, Kyle coughed lightly and continued his story.
"Like me, I need to use actual illusions to compensate for the lack of momentum, but for Ikavia-sama, her momentum itself is an illusion. And that's not all. Suddenly standing up straight, Kyle's lazy and serious posture too often was a little hard to get used to, "Words, tones, and thoughts are just tools of communication for us, but these things are illusions when used by Lord Ikavia! You will be controlled by her unconsciously! It will take all your effort to face her, let alone say what you want to say in conversation!"
It's not so much praising Ikavia's "strength" as complaining about her "terrible".
"I'm sorry, but I lost my temper just now, so please don't tell Lord Ekavia. The gradually increasing tone returned to zero, and Kyle once again made his words sound intonal, and then accelerated the progress of the topic, "So, Moll is really amazing, when he first faced Lord Ikavia, he was not captured by that adult's peerless face, and he even persevered after staring at him in silence for a long time! And he didn't seem to be left behind at all! Blamed the adult for casually diverting the topic! The most important thing is to accept the pressure of being ten times more terrible than the scene I could have created for four hours! to make it all the way to this point before I collapsed! This is really, whew, even I have something to love...... Respect him. ”
"In other words, Brother Mo's current half-dead appearance is already a very powerful embodiment of him?"
Completely oblivious to the last strangeness of Kyle's words, Ralph looked at this man who looked like a little girl, but had considerable strength, and his eyes were a little complicated.
If "very powerful" is the result, then what about the average person who is "not very powerful"?
The big man shuddered suddenly.
"Of course it's amazing! It's not just amazing, it's just ......."
"Bang!"
Compared to the previous self-control, this time, Kyle's somewhat irrepressible enthusiasm was extinguished by the sudden changes in the outside world.
"Oh, someone's back?"
The armor on the side of his arm was pressed against the door from which he came - the word "fly" was enough to show the strength of the person who came to push the door, and in an instant he changed back to that face as solid as iron, and Kyle walked out from behind the door, but the person in his eyes was ......
"Where have you been before?huh—you're dressed like this?" it was Ralph who spoke, naturally, and there was surprise in the big man's words. I was only surprised that, compared to when she went out, at this moment, her companion, who had always wrapped her petite body in a tight and thick robe, had changed her clothes, and this dress was really ...... It's cool? It's so cool that it doesn't look like anything she would wear.
The bright red skinny trousers like burning flames strangle the seductive hip line and leg curves, but they will not hinder movement, but they will inevitably reveal five points of sexiness, after all, Vina's curves are very seductive. The key is the upper body, how to describe it, it can't be called a jacket, it can't be called a shirt, maybe it's better to say it's a rolled-up cape? It doesn't cover the white and delicate arms, and a piece of satin, the same red as the trousers, is draped down from the left shoulder, covering the bulge on the chest, and then circled to the back waist in a wonderful way, revealing a slightly bulging belly, but adding a little cuteness to the sexy dressing style.
Some people are curious about how such "clothes" are fixed on their bodies, and they only care about these, anyway, Ralph, who is insulated from art, will never see the beauty of this design.
"Isn't that strange?" Vina swaggered in from outside the door, but her eyes froze because she suddenly saw Troy, who had been staying quietly beside her, and immediately turned her head, only to find that there was another person in the room who she did not know, "I, I, I...... I'm just, thinking about changing my dressing style, that's all!"
The swagger that had been disguised was half removed at the sight of Troy's ordinary face, and then Kyle's handsome face slowly made her face crimson.
She really wasn't used to this kind of dress.
"Ahh......h
At the door, there was another person behind her.
"Oh, it's not ...... Peace is back. ”
The "ruddy" complexion was not because the well-maintained woman turned sideways to get out of the way, and the slender figure that caught the eyes of the big man made him a little excited, however, this mood could not be maintained for long.
"I'm back. ”
The cold words, the indifferent tone, the cold breath, with the ice blue clothes, the temperament of ice and snow, the arrogant gaze of the ice, the girl who spoke and the bright red, enthusiastic and energetic Vina formed a complete antitone. can exude such an unapproachable "aura" around his body, who else would it be if it wasn't Christopher?
Since arriving on the peninsula, the ice mage has been separated from the others, and the ice mage, who is not aware of the bad news of Lance's death, finally meets up with his friends again. But who here could tell her the shocking and desperate truth?
It's a bit of a mouthful, but she'll know it eventually.
- She probably already knew.
