Chapter 22: Your Highness

There are two completely different cities in the center of the continent. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

One is the city of Durans, the king of 10,000 years, who has witnessed the history of mankind.

The other is Kiel, a young and vibrant city that has been established for less than 1,000 years.

There is a direct road between the two cities, which provides a lot of convenience for merchants and travelers.

In the warm sun, Charles on the road had a cold face: "I heard that you killed your own parents, is it true?"

Charlotte seemed to be very relaxed about this matter, and nodded slightly with a smile: "It's true." ”

After hearing this, Charles took out the wizard's staff from his dimensional bag.

"Why?" the tone gradually took on murderous intent.

Charlotte looked a little confused, and said with a childish look, "Well, no one has ever asked me this question." ”

Her eyes looked genuinely unsure of how to answer.

Charles was not confused by the woman's appearance, exuding a cold murderous aura: "I, I care about this very much." ”

He had already made up his mind that if the woman didn't answer the question directly, he would kill him directly.

"Since the seniors want to know, they can only say. Charlotte pouted with a little woman's lips.

Next, the face that had been trying to highlight the harmlessness of humans and animals brought a hint of coldness: "Did the senior hear of Charlotte of the Lance family before I did this?"

"Nope. In fact, Charles was also puzzled by this, this child's talent was comparable to that of Saint Lythes's mother, that is, Alex, who amazed the entire adventurer world back then.

Such a child is definitely qualified to be the hope of the revival of the Lance family, but why has it never been mentioned.

"Yes, for as long as I can remember, I haven't thought I've ever had a family relationship. Charlotte was still smiling, but the smile was already tingling with coldness.

A sudden surge of fear welled up in Charles's heart out of nowhere.

Charlotte got back on her horse, looked at the sun, and then at Charles's yet-to-be-finished Master Professional Medal.

"Senior, you should have heard of the god-making project, right?"

Charles thought about it for a moment when he heard the term, and he always felt a little familiar, as if someone had said it a long time ago.

After a while, he suddenly remembered those terrifying rumors and looked at Charlotte with a shocked face.

Charlotte smiled absently, she understood that the powerful seniors had heard of these secrets.

"Alex and I have such a powerful talent because of this experiment. ”

Charles's eyes widened, he was completely stunned, didn't it mean that thousands of years ago, this plan was scrapped because it was too cruel and anti-human?

While Charles was thinking in shock, Charlotte had already galloped down the avenue on a white horse towards the city of Kiel.

On the back of the bumpy horse, Charlotte sighed, it was rare to meet a wild master wizard, but this kind of goods.

No matter how strong the strength is, the soul has long been washed by the years and stories without a trace of sharpness.

This kind of person can no longer be a knife for her and all mankind......

Charles's face, which had some traces of age, looked even older at this time.

When will this world change......

It was a long time before he began to move forward again.

Think about the bright side, the super newcomers I have met and heard along the way have not disappointed.

Slowly raising his head and looking into the distance, he missed his hometown more and more.

Is Nielito's heir really as good as rumored?

Then, a pair of blood-red eyes that had returned from the Netherworld appeared in his mind, bringing a smile to his originally bitter face.

The young people of this era will definitely create a glorious chapter that belongs to them.

......

In the courtyard, Wood was sitting leisurely on a wooden chair reading a book.

The sun is surrounded by the aroma of coffee, flowers and earth, and the small fountain in the center looks beautiful in the sun. All this made Wood feel even more comfortable, and he couldn't help but sigh.

It's not much worse than the so-called paradise.

Wood, who was reading a book, felt someone tap him on the shoulder, turned back to Klaus with a big smile, and threw out a dimensional bag.

"The repair potion you mentioned to my dad last time, if it's not enough, you can tell me about it. After Klaus finished speaking, he also sat down on the bench: "The potion is for smearing, don't drink it indiscriminately, and there are ......" said a lot of precautions, and Wood directly took out a paper and wrote it down.

After talking about the potion, he paused a little, and then said, "Thank you." ”

It wasn't very specific, but everyone understood what it meant.

Wood closed the book and turned his head to meet Klaus's eyes, "We're companions, aren't we?"

Klaus could feel the weight of affection, nodded heavily, then got up from his chair and patted Wood on the shoulder again.

"Yes, we are companions. With a very heavy meaning, he then finished speaking and left.

"Don't you drink tea?" Wood just pulled out his teacup.

Klaus waved his hand and didn't look back.

"You'll be well in two days, let's get drunk!"

Wood laughed when he heard this, it was a good idea, and he hadn't heard Rebecca sing in a long time......

Time was spent in thick books, and then Linda walked over.

"Host, there's a guest outside who wants to see you. ”

Wood closed the book again, and without asking who the guest was, he gestured to the bench and motioned for Linda to sit down.

The maid hesitated for a moment, then sat down obediently beside Wood.

Wood placed the dimensional bag given by Klaus in the maid's hand, and continued, "Come to think of it, it's been so much since then. ”

Although he didn't say anything specifically, Linda still understood.

Holding this dimensional bag that I don't know what it contains, I also smiled: "Yes, time really flies quickly." ”

She's been very happy during this time.

Wood put down the book, stood up and touched the maid's head, and said very gently, "Some memories are hard to forget, but time and friends will help you." And I'm ......"

Linda looked up slowly, and Wood stroked her dark hair.

"And I, the master, will help you remove all those disgusting marks from your body. When Wood thought of the scars, he felt that the father and son had died too easily.

Those children struggled before they were devoured by despair......

"There's a potion to get rid of scars, and I've put it on how to use it. After Wood said this, he was able to anticipate what was going to happen and left to pick up the guests first.

As a good man, he really has no problem with women's tears.

Walking to the gate, the maid next to her wondered why Sister Linda didn't follow, but she didn't ask much.

A woman in a black robe stood in the doorway, leaning against the wall leisurely with her eyes closed, as if enjoying the sun.

"You guys go back to work first. Wood finished speaking to the little maids beside him, then opened the iron door and walked towards the black-robed woman.

He first looked at this woman and summed up three words, not simple!

The bright red lips, the chin under the lips are just right, not very pointed but not round, making this melon seed face look comfortable.

Some of the pale complexions and waist-length black hair create a striking contrast that can impress others.

The breeze blew casually, and the long hair began to flutter slightly, coupled with this delicate face, it looked a little messy and beautiful.

This is a woman who can drive men into madness.

In addition to the surprise given to Wood by her appearance, what made him feel more than simple was this woman's equipment.

The black mage robe had clearly reached the Excellence level, and as a master forger, he was able to spot more than one active skill on the robe.

This kind of robe is also the top of the Excellence level.

The deadwood staff behind it was even more powerful, and at the top of the deadwood, which looked fragile, a purple magic gem was suspended somehow, shimmering in the sunlight.

Wood could sense that this weapon could never be made by forging alone.

Sensing that Wood was looking at herself, the woman seemed to wake up, and slowly opened her eyes, seeing this face that she had seen many times, and a smile curled into the corner of her mouth.

Wood almost indulged in it when he made eye contact with the woman, but fortunately he was able to control himself by restraining himself.

The smiling dark eyes are like a beautiful trap, and if you are not careful, you will be sucked into this black hole.

This woman is dangerous. That's Wood's second assessment.

"Who are you?" Wood asked directly, if the visitor was not good, he really couldn't do it now, he was weak.

But he didn't panic, this woman was stronger than him, but he had a lot of umbrellas in this city.

"Charlotte Lance. "The woman is very direct about her name.

Wood was slightly stunned, it turned out that this woman was the Charlotte he had been looking for!

"Hello, Commander!" the very shameless Wood chose to attack with Rou.

Charlotte was also amused, she had long heard that this teenager was funny, but experiencing it firsthand was another story.

"What's the matter, you also want to join the crow?"

"Report to the regimental commander, I don't want to!" Wood looked serious, and he sent a military salute.

"Don't want to join the group and still call me the head of the group?" Charlotte frowned on the surface, making herself look a little unhappy.

"Report to the head of the regiment, because I have heard of the great achievements of the head of the regiment, and I especially admire the head of the regiment, so I call the head of the regiment!" Wood said that he himself believed it.

"Hahaha......" Charlotte didn't have much to say, laughed like an ordinary adventurer, and punched Wood in the chest by the way: "You guy, the head of the regiment has stunned me." And what great achievements I have, it's almost as notorious. ”

Then he restrained his smile and said, "Don't call me the head of the regiment! Call me Charlotte!"

Wood saluted, looking like a thief: "Yes, Captain!"

Charlotte couldn't hold back a smile when she saw Wood like this, it was the first time she had met such a fun person.

She was still smiling without a ladylike demeanor, but all the men looked at it and felt that it was beautiful, and it penetrated their hearts more than those contrived smiles.

Wood didn't expect this rumored cold-blooded creature to be so talkative, and to talk and laugh with him on the surface.

This is different from his script, is it because he is too handsome?

After a while, Charlotte seemed to have no strength, and put her arm on Wood's shoulders and said a little breathlessly, "Don't you invite me to tea?"

Wood hurriedly replied, "How can we, we ......" stopped in the middle of speaking.

Because...... He sensed the position of the servant, and found Elizabeth still at home! If the two women met, it would probably be ...... No!

Although it is very likely that Elizabeth is unilaterally making trouble, the devil knows if this leader is moody.

"What's wrong?" Charlotte licked her lips, a seductive gesture that expressed her thirst.

Wood, a man, really has no resistance to this kind of flattering behavior, and his heart is crossed, change the place!

Although Elizabeth hated him for having too many things, not missing this one, he still wanted to be gentle with this poor woman.

"Your Highness is here, let's go to the tavern! He made a gesture of please, and then began to walk ahead and lead the way.

Charlotte followed with a smile, not bothering Wood to change her name.

"Your Highness, you see, the trinkets in this shop are some of the finest I have ever seen. ”

"Your Highness, barbecue or not, I often go to this shop. ”

"No, no, boss, this is the eldest lady from afar, I can't climb high. ”

"Your Highness, this vegetable is our specialty here, I'll buy you some and you can take it back. ”

“...... Okay! Grandma, I've got it all here! I don't have to look for it...... No, no, no, she's not my girlfriend. ”

"Your Highness, don't eat too many sweets, not to mention easy tooth decay, and it's easier to get fat. ”

"No, Your Highness is the most beautiful woman I have ever met...... One. ”

"Your Highness, don't go there!

"Your Highness, ...... over there"

The last part of the afternoon was spent by the two idlers, who finally reached the tavern when the sun set its last rays.

At this time, the city of Kiel was already brightly lit.

"Your Highness, how are we compared to Lance City?" Wood asked one last question before entering the tavern.

Charlotte lowered her head and thought for a moment, then said, "Each has its own merits. ”

Then he pointed to the light of the fire: "If the city of Reims is an old towering tree, one of the symbols of the entire continent, then the city is a small sapling that grows savagely in the sun, symbolizing infinite possibilities. ”

Wood nodded, and although he hadn't been to Reims, he agreed with the part of Keele.

The two entered the tavern, and the adventurers, who were drinking, saw Wood coming in with the woman and began to make a fuss.

They also knew that Wood had a good temper, so they liked to make fun of him.

With difficulty, he led His Highness through the enthusiastic crowd and came to the second floor.

"Good popularity. Charlotte took a sip of tea and then said with a little appreciation.

Wood looked a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and continued: "A lot of people are angry with the world, it's not that I don't understand them, but in this way, it's going to be very tiring. ”

For such a sincere sentence, Charlotte also nodded in agreement.

For a long time, in that room with no windows and no exit, she cried out to the world all the time, but no one responded to her.

At first, he waited for others to come to his rescue, and then cursed the world day and night in pain.

In this way, a long time passed, and suddenly one day she figured it out.

It's not the world's fault, because the world is indifferent to anyone. After that, she began to change her mind.

It's all her fault that she's not strong enough!

If you hadn't figured this out and simply pinned your hopes on others, there would be no Charlotte Lance now.

The cold-blooded butcher, the revivalist of Estol, the betrayer of Lance, the supernova that symbolizes hope......

For better or worse, these countless names all tell that there is a place for her in this world.

"To be honest, I really didn't expect His Highness to come to the door, I originally planned to go to Reims City to meet His Highness after a while. Wood also began to drink tea, if it weren't for his health now, he would have served it a long time ago.

Charlotte leaned her cheeks on the back of her hand, looking a little lazy: "What are you looking for me?"

Wood admits that he has read countless women, but it is the first time he has seen such a amorous woman.

"Then why did Your Highness come to me today?"

Charlotte pursed her lips, as if she had forgotten why.

Then he showed a sudden realization: "Speaking of which, I'm here to save you!"

She also forgot all about business during the fight, and she couldn't remember the last time she played around like this.

Maybe when I was just born and I didn't have a memory.

Wood also knew that his companions had put out notices in several nearby cities in order to save him.

Although I don't know what Charlotte is up to, at least on the surface, it is out of good intentions, and I still want to thank her.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your bother. With that, he filled Charlotte's teacup.

Charlotte blew on the hot tea, then said, "It's nothing, I came here with what I wanted." ”

He took a sip of tea and didn't wait for Wood to continue speaking. "Actually, if I had known you were so fun, I would have helped you without pay. ”

Although I don't know if it's pretending or not, Wood still feels warm in his heart.

At the very least, the woman is honest with herself on these issues.

"Your Highness, if I had known that you were so talkative, I would have gone to play with you. Wood looked a little angry.

"It's all because of those rumors, which smeared His Highness. "Mr. Knight wants to put the rumormongers on trial.

Charlotte watched the show with a smile and tea on her face, not at all wanting to stop the knight.

Wood is very stiff, because His Highness doesn't care about him, and this play can't be continued!

After thinking about it, let's get straight to the point: "Your Highness, do you know that the mysterious adventurer who recently killed the S-class boss is me?"

Charlotte put down her teacup, and she knew that the next step was the main play: "Of course I do. ”

Wood replied in the affirmative, and continued, "Your Highness, is this really your divination?"

Charlotte's smile widened when she heard this......
