Chapter 24: The End is the Beginning

"Since we are going to Delta Town, then we will stop by, the wild is so cold, and your Excellency is thinly clothed, it is better to take my carriage, it is faster. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Laxa threw the cigarette butt between her fingers into the snow, Charlie saw it in his eyes, and immediately knew what Laxa meant, although he didn't understand why Laxa wanted to show favor to this worthless young man, but Laxa must have her reasons for doing this, Charlie didn't say anything more, raised his hand to beckon the carriage in the center of the convoy to drive behind Laksha, personally opened the side door of the carriage, stood aside respectfully, bowed slightly, and motioned for Alan to get into the car, Charlie's gestures were standard aristocratic etiquette, Alan actually forgot how to refuse, low temperature, sadness, regret, made his reaction sluggish, Laxa saw that Alan's expression was a little dazed, took a few steps forward, to take Allen's hand, when the warm fingers touched Allen's cold palm, Allen was suddenly stunned, and instinctively took a step back to avoid Laxa's hand.

Laxa was slightly stunned, the surprise on her face flashed, her hand stroked the hair on her forehead, and skillfully covered up the embarrassment of this scene, Charlie looked at this scene in his eyes, and said: "Your Excellency, please rest assured, Miss Laxa has no ill will towards you, and the Klein Chamber of Commerce will not embarrass you for a little loss in the tavern." ”

Allen looked embarrassed and said, "No, you misunderstood" Alan wanted to defend himself, he was not afraid that the Klein Chamber of Commerce would harm him, but he didn't know how to explain the words, just now, when Laksha's warm and slender fingers touched him, Alan actually gave birth to a sense of disgust from the depths of his soul, although this feeling was fleeting, but it was so real that the body instinctively made a response to avoid, as if Laxa was not stretching out a white and wonderful finger, but a hand bone with the smell of carrion, which made him instinctively avoid, but this feeling was a momentary thing, the woman in front of him, from appearance to words and deeds, was not disgusting, and from the beginning, This woman was polite to herself, according to the etiquette of the knight, his behavior just now was very out of shape and very rude, thinking of this, Alan couldn't help but feel that the scene just now was just an illusion, and he began to think about how to round the field.

"Since Your Excellency doesn't want to ride, Charlie, lead a horse to Mr. Allen," Laksa said with a smile unimpressed.

"Thank you so much!" Seeing that Charlie had led a horse, Alan was not good at refusing again, and he was worried about Christine, so he didn't say more, jumped on the horse, Charlie waved his hand slightly, and the guards around him suddenly brushed the way to get out of the way, Alan saw this, and vigorously clamped the horse's belly, and the horse galloped obediently and galloped towards Delta Town.

Looking at Allen's figure disappearing at the end of the road, Charlie asked Laksha in confusion: "Miss, this kid was so rude to you just now, why didn't you punish him?"

Laksa stared at the two fingers that had just touched Allen, and said to herself with a slight frown: "Why, natural charm doesn't work?"

The cold wind around her gradually rose, Laxa suddenly found that she had been standing in the snow for a long time, and the Adamantite Fire Diamond Necklace could only keep her upper body warm, at this time the cold air had slowly climbed along her legs, Laxa couldn't help but stomp her feet, turned around and got into the carriage, and closed the door by herself, the carriage was engraved with a very complicated magic array, and the moment the door was closed, it operated on its own, and the warm wind was slowly sent out from the upper and lower magic arrays, even if the wind and snow outside the car, the car was warm as spring, and the cold on Laksha's body was dispelled in a blink of an eye。

"Let's go. Back in the car, Laxa spoke in a tone that was the opposite of the warmth of the car, cold and crisp.

Charlie knew that Laxa was in a very bad mood at this time, so he didn't dare to ask more, and beckoned the guards to quickly adjust the formation, press the truckload of goods, and set off in a mighty manner.

Although the cold wind around is weak, it is swept up by the wind, and the erratic snowflakes are also very rare, but it blows on the galloping Allen, it is still like a knife, but Allen can't take care of these, the horses of the Klein Chamber of Commerce are extraordinary, and the speed is amazing, which makes Allen happy, and after a while, he will be able to see Christine again, he wants to hug her tightly into his arms, and he wants to apologize to her seriously. The two guards on guard at the east gate were dozing off with their spears, until Alan galloped past and suddenly woke up, the two guards looked at each other, opened their sleepy eyes, looked around, didn't realize what had just happened, and saw that there was nothing serious, so they leaned on the spear and found a comfortable position and continued to sleep.

Delta Town is far away in the northeast of the continent, the rear of the human world, for the people in this town, even if the wall of miracles collapses, there is a fourth barrier that can be relied on thousands of miles away, and there are countless powerful guardians gathering on the border to resist the dragons, so ordinary human guards will still choose to create a comfortable and rare nap time for themselves on this ice and snow day. Even if there is a real crisis, it should be the guardians at the forefront, the guards of the human physique, and in this day and age, the symbolism is greater than the value of its actual existence.

"The door is unlocked, great, Chriss!" Alan pushed the door in anticipation, "Chrissy, I'm back!I'm sorry, I was bad yesterday!" Alan shouted a few words, but no one responded, "Is it out again? Alan noticed that there was something unusual on the first floor, the normally warm magic flame was not ignited, the room was deserted, everything was neatly arranged, the tableware on the table was also wiped spotlessly, and at the door, Christine's usual shoes were neatly placed today. Alan sensed that something was wrong, strode up to the second floor, and saw that Christine's room was open with the door open, and Alan was stunned for a moment.

Everything in the room was neat and tidy, and it was so quiet that Alan even suspected that he had gone to the wrong room. But the familiar scent that permeated the air reminded Alan that this was Christine's room, and the photos that had been hanging on the walls had been taken away at some point, leaving only the bare walls. The bed was made flat and neat, two pairs of loafers were neatly placed next to the bed, and the snow-white paladin armor that had been placed in the corner of the room was gone, except for a pair of humanoid wooden supports.

"No! no!" Alan burst out the door and rushed into the room next door where he had lived, the walls were empty, and Christine's portrait was gone. Alan frantically searched all the rooms in the small building, except for the familiar scent, Alan only found his mid-level knight's armor in the cupboard, and the shield badge engraved with the six-pointed star on his chest was also removed, leaving only an empty groove.

"No, why do you do this to me・・・・・ I... I know it's wrong..." Alan stroked his armor and subconsciously muttered to himself, already crying.

"Why...・Why is this happening...," Allen's heart twitched, and a tear slipped down his cheek and fell to the ground. Compared with last night's heartache, the indescribable pain at this moment is deeper into the bone marrow, Alan suddenly understood Christine's mood last night, Christine was just like him, full of anticipation to push the door in, but he didn't expect to step into the abyss of pain, Alan didn't dare to think about how Christine spent this night, let alone where Christine went. Weak, he could no longer support it, and sat on the ground with his armor in his arms.

It was getting late, and the cold wind was howling again, and the snow and ice were beating against the glass, making a small cracking sound. The night spread, the flame circle in the room was still silent, and after a while, the room was completely dark, and the room without flame lighting was even darker and darker in the snowy night, and I couldn't see my fingers. However, there was something quietly blooming with a faint blue light in the dark, Alan raised his head stiffly, followed the light to look, and found that the light source came from the desk, so he got up with difficulty, moved his sore body and walked to the desk, and found that the glowing thing was actually an irregular triangular blue stone, Alan felt that this thing was very familiar, reached out to pick it up, and suddenly realized that this thing was actually the broken corner that was knocked off by himself last night, how could this thing glow? Alan was about to take a closer look when he happened to find the letterhead covered in flowery characters that had been crushed under the fragments, and Alan recognized the owner of the handwriting at a glance.

With the faint blue light, Alan hurriedly brought the letter to his front and read it word by word:

"Favorite..."

A drop of hot tears slipped silently...

The wind and snow this night were particularly noisy・・・・・・

After a long time, Alan held the hand of the letter and put it down, "So that's it... Go to the front line of ・・・・・... Excuse me・・・・・ Chrissy, I'm sorry・・・・・ it's just that you shouldn't have taken this badge with you... Before Raphael left, didn't he leave you a portrait... yes, you left me this letter... and those memories... Thinking about it like this, it's enough..."

Alan stared blankly at the triangular gravel emitting a pale blue light in his hand, and suddenly had an idea, he picked up his armor, picked up the triangular gravel and compared it with the groove in it, and then, a smile of relief appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Before dawn, Alan carefully put on the whole suit of armor, and like Christine last night, stood in front of the mirror, looking at himself quietly. The Odal Divine Stone on the armor has been activated, the light green lines are constantly flickering on the surface of the armor, and it is extremely clear in the dark room, Alan put the long sword in front of him, the Odal Divine Stone on the hilt of the sword is shining, and the magic inscriptions on the sword body slowly light up, deep and mysterious.

"I'm going to awaken to be a Guardian, I will!"
