Chapter 261: Little Stalker
"Welcome to the light...... Uh-huh?!" "On the street where the empire had just opened, in an inn that had just opened its doors, the young proprietress greeted the guests who stepped into them in a warm tone, but she stopped her words in her throat only halfway through the greeting. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The visitor was a girl with long aqua blue hair, who seemed to be wearing a cloak on the way to this place, and did not want to attract attention, but when she walked through the store, she took off her cloak.
As a result, the appearance is noble that cannot be concealed at all. Although the other party didn't say anything, he stood there silently, but the momentum could not be concealed. Although she hasn't had time to say anything, she probably doesn't want to speak, judging by her own attitude.
The dignified girl just stood quietly in place, as soft and beautiful as a peony. Especially with a faint intoxicating blush on her face, just looking at it, even the proprietress , a human being who is also a woman, can't help but become blushing and her heart jumping. As the saying goes, a woman with a sweetheart is a complete life, because it is the fireworks in the world that are clearer and moving, no matter who sees it, they will feel extraordinarily excited.
However, he didn't have the courage to come forward and talk. Even if the other party doesn't say anything and does nothing, there is no way to hide its own momentum. It was like a jewel entwined in it, wordless but majestic, like the breath of the highest ruler sitting on the throne. It's so obvious that a small citizen like her can clearly recognize it.
The long-term oppression of the aristocracy in the empire did not give rise to a passion for rebellion, but instead turned the people into a submissive character. Perhaps it is also an extremely sad fact that the generation has not reached a certain level and has not given birth to all the heroes of the subversive.
As a result, the common people had a deep fear of the so-called aristocracy and had no courage to disobey them. At the same time, he is also secretly envious, after all, anyone in this environment will have a longing for absolute power, and secretly regard the so-called "getting ahead" as the direction of his struggle.
has unconsciously regarded the so-called nobles as monsters who control everything, but they don't know that they are also human beings with seven emotions and six desires, and perhaps the vast majority of people are still the most disobedient part of the human race.
Such a peculiar girl probably won't have a second chance to meet in her life. But since you know that the other party is a resident of that world, you don't have the courage to talk to each other anyway. Instead, she found a hidden corner in a panic and hid, trembling and saying in a state where only half of her face was exposed: "So...... What do you want to do when you come to the shop?" and with such a tone of awe, he let the opportunity slip out of his hands in a calm manner.
Seeing that the other party treated herself with the same vigilance as a beast, Rena couldn't help but feel a little hurt. "Nothing...... Just to pick up some people. ”
Last night, some of the guards she "abandoned" away. It's just a guard, but it's just a temporary position. After all, this journey was not a simple journey for the envoy to meet, and it was said that these people had entered the country secretly, and if they were exposed without permission, they might be in great trouble.
But there is nothing to hide, as a bright and upright royal family, his body is not slanted, and there is no place to be afraid at all. However, there is no need to say it at this time, after all, it will only make the already quite uneasy proprietress even more uneasy.
Then Rena coughed softly, and the doors of the rooms upstairs of the hotel opened.
Knight of the Round Table of the First Knight, Horst, Knight Fancy, Knight No. 2, Somme, Knight No. 7, Knight No. 9, Tunludo. Four people who can almost dominate the scales of victory in a war are gathered here. Normally, they are important people in the kingdom who hold the power of the army, and all of them are serving as the guards of Princess Rena at the moment.
It is precisely because of the extreme importance of this girl that such an important combat power will be placed by her side.
After all, he is the first in line to the next king, and almost embodies the hope of the people of the entire kingdom, and all the Knights of the Round Table have their own identity as the bodyguards of the royal family. The princess of hope must not be damaged in such a place, even if she fights her life, she must protect it.
Even Horst reasoned with King Hammery about today's trip. got such an answer from the other party.
"It doesn't matter...... Let's just let them reunite and make love...... After all, it's that kind of relationship, it's too pitiful if you don't have fun together at the same age......" Hamory, who was lying on the table, handled the papers in his hand without raising his head, and his words were full of confidence, "They are all strong, so there is no problem! The children are all grown up, there is no need for us to worry about them......"
One is a boy who is known as a brave man, and the other is a girl who is a candidate for the strongest magician. As an elder, there is no reason why Hamory should not be proud of the strength of his juniors.
On the contrary, it was the confidence in the king's tone that made Horst feel even more confused. Speaking of which, Rena also grew up watching this child grow up by herself, but I have never heard of any good friends or anything else in the empire.
However, I heard that one of the princesses of the empire has a rare good character. Such a wonderful princess may have cost the empire hundreds of years of luck, but when did Rena catch up with her?
Only this one is in line with her own suspicions, or rather, Rena's intention and identity to cross the border illegally and enter the territory of the empire. No one but that deserves Rena's painstaking efforts. Although he has not yet received any words from Rena, the current situation of the empire's political situation is turbulent, maybe Rena also wants to forcibly take her friends captive.
It doesn't matter...... Regardless of whether he is an empire or a state, Princess Rena can take everything she wants. At this moment, Horst behaves like a stupid elder who dotes on his granddaughter too much, and loses his mind instead.
If you knew that the purpose of Rena's trip was for a boy, I guess my hair would stand on end. Knowing this fact, Rena pretended to have other plans, but she trembled and broke away from them.
"Temple...... My lord. Leading the Knights of the Round Table, Horst walked downstairs and respectfully saluted Rena. Anyway, the relationship between the two of them didn't require so much red tape, but because there were other peers in front of him, Horst still made the minimum amount of etiquette that should be done.
The so-called "salute when you see the royal family", which is not written in any country, seems to the people of the empire to be nothing more than torture that has to be done by using power to oppress, but in the eyes of the people of the kingdom, it is an act of convincing and convincing.
After doing this, it was these men who were as strong and strong as tyrants who knocked on the door of their hotel in the middle of the night, and at that moment they were so frightened that their souls almost flew away from their bodies. As the owner of the inn, the male host was ready to kneel down on the spot, and his hands were already raised above his head, and he was about to beg for mercy with a sentence of "a good man spares his life".
Although the capital of the empire is large, it also contains a considerable degree of danger. Every day, different numbers of people are involved in various things and lose their precious lives, and the city is far from being as safe as imagined, but a "killing forest" on a different level.
He also thought that Horst was here to rob, and judging by their size, they probably had a speed that the neighbors didn't even have time to notice, so they could click off their own first-class people.
Horst shrewdly said before the man made a kneeling motion, "Stay in the hotel!" to salvage the current awkward atmosphere, and at the same time put down his black cloak.
If you really let the other party have such an ugly state and make you hold a grudge against each other, if you suddenly run to a high density and are properly accepted, you may really capsize in the gutter.
The size of the male bully is true, but the expression on the face of the first-class knight of the Horst is also impossible to hide. Knight is a profession that tends to be cheerful, and there are even many people who love this profession and will risk their lives to defend their honor, which can be said to be the most sunny and positive profession.
Soaking in this glorious chicken soup every day, their own momentum inevitably takes shape.
It is a bright and resolute expression, and at a glance it gives the impression that the other party is strong but does not bully the weak - of course, it is only a façade, and if you want to, you can put on this hypocritical mask by conquering such a place.
However, at that time, it did give the store a considerable degree of relaxation, and finally lived in the hotel normally, and no one wanted to sleep in the open like this where there was a bed. However, he was still trembling, and as a result, he was trembling at all times, and Horst couldn't help but feel that the other party was having a hard enough time.
But it is inconceivable that even the citizens of their own kingdom have done their best to protect them, and it would be difficult to extend their remnants to other countries.
I'm getting old after all...... Horst couldn't help but think of the adventurers who joined the team of adventurers when he first stepped into the royal capital when he was a hairy boy and wanted to save all the members of the human race under the sky. Now that the strength base is even larger, the mood has become much more cautious.
The tough guy who didn't look like a mortal in the first place actually called the little lady in front of him "adult", which made the proprietress firm up her guess and shrank her head tighter.
Rena tossed an entire gold coin on the table. Then he sighed and left with everyone through the gate. The cowering look made Rena's thoughts mixed up, shouldn't the so-called people be full of energy and vitality? The people in front of her were like timid little mice who couldn't see strangers.
It is estimated that the accommodation fee for four people for one night will not cost a single silver coin, but Rena has paid ten times the price much higher, and she has no intention of asking for money. It can be regarded as a little tenderness shown by Rena.
"Speaking of the temple...... My lord, what are your plans for the future?" Horst couldn't change his habits, but fortunately, he changed his words on the way without being discovered by others, so that others would not find out about the abnormal things here.
"This one...... Sure enough, it's better to hide and act in secret...... After all, the enemy is in the open, and we are in the dark, and that's the biggest advantage we have......" Rena said with a deep groan, "a stronghold or something...... Find a hotel in the city as a place to stay...... But for the sake of secrecy...... This stronghold needs to be changed a lot......"
No matter how much you change it, you can't go beyond the scope of that house. This is the only point that can be absolutely compromised!
It's just that when Rena was walking down the street with the people, talking in a deep voice, there was a person who kept a relatively close distance behind them.
There are not many pedestrians in the early morning, after all, it is not like the overly fast traffic population in the information society of the present world. Even if there are people who wake up relatively early, most of them have their own things to do, and they trot forward when they walk down the street. No one would bother with Rena at all, so they would talk about things unscrupulously.
However, the other party's actions are too obvious after all, and they have reached the point where they cannot be ignored.
Horst and his party had already discovered a small tracker behind them, and as a result, they scanned the past with domineering energy, and came to the conclusion that the other party had no combat effectiveness at all, so they didn't take it to heart. Thinking that the other party just happened to be on the way, or out of some kind of childlike curiosity, he would catch up with his group, and it would not be long before he got bored and left on his own.
It doesn't matter, there is no need to shout at a child's prank of this magnitude. They all have a heart that is tolerant and forgiving, after all, no one in the kingdom has any bad intentions.
That's how it should be.
It was the life of the kingdom that "mentally anesthetized" them to another extent.
The quagmire called "Empire" revealed his hideous face at this moment.
The other party was getting too close, almost to the point where they were extremely close. This means that I don't know when it will start, and the words discussed by my own people will be listened to by the other party one by one.
Not your average child!
Horst turned his head, and finally saw the other party's true face clearly.
Dressed in a patched dress and carrying a basket full of flowers in her hand, her hair hanging low could not make it clear the expression on her face. It is a little girl who sells flowers to subsidize the family.
Horst inevitably softened, and the stern tone that had been used as a warning also softened unconsciously.
"You ......"
Horst was about to say something.
But he suddenly found that the other party raised his head with the stiff movement of mechanical braking.
Then her body flashed. (To be continued.) )
