Chapter 40: The Rare Relationship

"I see. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Lusman thought.

It seems that Alex has another official identity in the Quenching Dagger, which is why he has been opposing Ica's decision and has been trying to inquire about the whereabouts of Akachi and the others.

At the same time, Misha's dying face burst into Eako's mind like a wild horse on the loose. The girl's last words, "Don't believe it," echoed in his mind over and over again, and Eko suddenly realized that Misha's failure to complete the sentence was probably "Don't believe Alex"!

Lusman whispered in a voice lower than the wind, "It's Alex......"

Akachi heard this.

"I see. A cold smile immediately appeared on Akachi's face, and although he had never had face-to-face contact with a guy named Alex, he had roughly guessed who Alex's name was, as the minor leader of the Assassins happened to be an old acquaintance of Akachi. Known as Zoe the Scorpion in the Quenching Dagger, he is a guy who hasn't been seen in the guild in a long time, and Akaki knows this man because he and Zoe have another mentor in common, Crully. It seems that those innocent white sparrows have chosen an inappropriate role to be their connector, which is too much fun.

In the blink of an eye, the Assassins had approached the hiding place of Akaqi and his party, perhaps because the trail that had led them all the way to this place had been abruptly cut off, and the Assassins' demeanor became more and more hesitant.

I don't know if it's because I'm not hiding it well enough or if it's purely psychological, Lusman felt that Alex seemed to have a playful smile at him, and he couldn't help but subconsciously retract his legs, and the wooden strip tied to his calf unfortunately rubbed against a stubborn stone, making a small but noticeable movement. For a moment, all the assassins gathered around, and Lusman only felt that his heart was hairy, and cold sweat oozed from the corners of his forehead, but his head was blank, and just as he was secretly complaining about his distress, Ekor suddenly walked out.

Unlike most human beings, who often have their faces distorted and ugly due to negative emotions, when elves are in pain, When dominated by emotions of sadness or resentment, their expressions will be particularly similar to their almost mythical ancestors, and the elves at this time seem to exude a mysterious color that cannot be ignored, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they have a deadly charm, and now, Ekko's body is shrouded in this aura, affected by this, several assassins who have not yet received the order to attack are careful to maintain a confrontational posture, and do not further surround them, and Ekko's active exposure obviously also has the intention of protecting Lussman and Akachi, which makes the troublesome old man feel very guilty, but before Lusman can brew enough emotionsThe conversation between Ekor and Alex draws everyone's attention.

"Alex, don't you explain why you got involved with the Quenching Dagger?"

Ekko's reprimanding question made the human opposite him twitch the corners of his mouth unconsciously, but the scorpion Zoe that Ekor called Alex or Akachi's acquaintance quickly shook off an uncomfortable expression.

"I don't need to talk nonsense with you. Tell me, where is the great evil?"

Seeing Ekor shaking his head with regret, Alex forcibly suppressed his irritable mood, and he persuaded in an extraordinarily polite tone: "You don't need to protect Destain's public enemy, even if the secret on his body involves the death of several white sparrows, it can't change the fact that he is a disaster." Tell me where he is, so we can all get better. ”

The cause of death of several white sparrows?Are the white sparrows that Alex refers to a few people who died in the unsolved case of D'Estaing?Or does it include Misha? Ekor felt that he couldn't help but learn the expression of Akachi when he sneered, he sighed lightly, and said perfunctorily: "Our aircraft fell, and everyone was thrown out one after another, that's it." ”

"That's it? You want to say you've lost touch with each other, right?"

"You can think so. ”

After a brief silence, Alex's face grew hideous.

"I hate people for being perfunctory to me. He said.

"I really don't understand why you just like to protect that elf regardless of life or death? Misha is like that, and so are you. ”

"What are you implying about, Alex? Didn't you say that Misha's accident had nothing to do with you? ”

Icao seized on a hint of looseness in Alex's words and attacked unceremoniously.

"Actually, we don't have anything to misunderstand, just look at the assassins around you and you should come to a conclusion, don't you? It seems that not only do you have nothing to do with Misha, but I am afraid you have nothing to do with homonyms. ”

Ekor stared at Alex's eyes, and the fierce momentum emanating from his body made the human in front of him show a weak expression.

"That's why you can break the precepts of homonyms again and again, and that's why the white sparrows are falling one after another in this city. Alex, you're really like a chameleon who is good at camouflage, isn't it amazing that you get such a high opinion from the Hub?"

This aggressive series of questions was exchanged for a "poof" sound. Alex pointed the sword he held in his hand straight at Ekko's neck.

"I didn't want to do anything to you, Ekko, you're a visitor from afar, so I've always been very tolerant of you, but I forgot that you and that lowly elf are the same kind at all. ”

The weapon that was expected to slash remained in place, and a look of hypocritical compassion appeared on Alex's face at this time.

"It's a shame to hear that the Hub hasn't been able to produce an unveiler for decades......"

Being held to the neck by his former comrade did not make Eko panic, in fact, the chill that crept from the bottom of his heart to his whole body made his whole body numb. Ekor looked at Alex in silence, waiting for Alex to finish.

"It's a shame that the Nexus can't get Alada into trouble for the sake of a member, even if that member is an unnerve. Of course, I'll keep things hidden enough to blame that shitty elf! I'll never forget my brother Kyle's death...... It's all his fault!" Alex said through gritted teeth.
