In the guest room of the small hotel, in the face of Xingxi's accusatory statement, Cheruth found that she could not find a reason to refute it for a while.

Xingxi was right, since Cheruth had said from the beginning that she didn't plan to have anything to do with the revenge of the Nolans, so who was in a position to ask people to care about her friends and her feelings?

Seeing that Cheruth's face was slightly pale because of Xingxi's words, Nanoha, who felt sorry for Cheruth, couldn't sit still, and held the small hand on Cheruth's side tightly with both hands and put it on her lap, Nanoha frowned, and looked at Xingxi who said those words calmly with some anger.

"How can you say that!Her Highness Sekaria is innocent, and you who want to hurt innocent people are obviously doing something wrong, so what's wrong with Cerus wanting to protect Her Highness Sekaria!"

"Oh, I did something wrong...... So you are here to be the party to the verdict to avenge the innocent victims of your mouths and punish those of us who have done wrong? What about the Solan Sect? Who has avenged us victims for the wrong things they did back then? No! It's just that because of the perpetrator's words that 'Nolan is a descendant of the devil', the people of the whole continent will no longer say a word for us! Now we can do the same, and I can tell you that when we can do it afterwards, we won't make people think that the princess and the current King Loris are innocent, and what position do you have to say that we did wrong?"

“...... In any case, Her Highness Sekaria is our friend, and even more so Cheruth's best friend, if you must hurt her, if you must go your own way regardless of Cheruth's feelings. Then I'll stop you!"

Xingxi looked at Nanoha with a determined face. I couldn't help but laugh.

"Good. Yes, it's better to say that's fine. ”

I didn't expect Xingxi to suddenly agree with her, Nanoha was a little stunned for a moment, but then Xingxi's words made her really angry.

"If you want to stop us, come on, our plan is not a small number of your so-called innocent victims. Plus you won't have a lot of one. ”

"Xingxi!" Cheruth looked up sharply, gritting her teeth and looking at the black-haired girl in front of her, "Don't go too far, Leah, Nanoha, I won't let the people I value be hurt by your frivolous revenge! ”

Boring Revenge...... yes, speaking of which, what can revenge bring to Nolan?

Xingxi felt a strange sadness in his heart for no reason. She looked at Cheruth and suddenly felt that the two of them were really similar in some ways. Merely......

"Ah, yes, that's exactly what I want to say!" Xingxi suddenly shouted at Cheruth excitedly, "Do you think our plan this time is very easy! Our opponent is the defense force of the vast majority of a country's royal capital, the number one magic school in the Western Plains, and the three long-established law powerhouses of the Loris Kingdom! Do you think that now we have the leeway to modify the steps of the plan because of your boring request alone? You have people you value, and I have too! The people I value have already gambled their lives for this plan, what can I say?!If I could ask you to do me a favor and calculate your princess friend to make our plans smoother and less dangerous?!

"Do you think you have done your best if you didn't tell the royal family of our whereabouts in advance? Can you be comfortable getting in the way of us and putting my companions in danger? I tell you, until I came here alone tonight, I hesitated to inform my companions to come here directly, and simply put you and your fellow insiders under house arrest so as not to cause trouble for our plans! Now that I am here alone, can I also assume that I have done what you deserve to be tolerant of? Then according to your theory, I can also take the people you value as victims without any burden! I value every Nolan, including you, but that doesn't mean I have to value the things you value, selfishness is everyone's right, since I have decided to protect my companions, anyone who wants to make them harmed, including you and your companions, will be my enemies!"

"Then give it a try!" Gray Wind, who had been sitting beside Cheruth without saying a word, suddenly spoke, his green and gold eyes full of danger and irritability, "Xiaobai's companions are not useless guys who need to be protected, and we don't want to threaten you with such a thing as whistleblowing. We're just here to say hello today, even if Xiaobai doesn't make a move, we're enough to protect Sekaria, Xiaobai has been living outside since she was a child, she doesn't owe anything to anyone except her biological parents, with us, she doesn't need you to pay attention, and she's not afraid of you being an enemy!"

"Alright, don't say any more!"

Cheruth opened her mouth suddenly, slashing off the sudden heavy smell of gunpowder in the room, and Grey Wind and Nanoha and Xingxi stared at each other angrily, and then snorted in unison and looked away.

Cheruth closed her eyes, only to feel a little pain in her brain. She really didn't approve of the Nolan's unscrupulous efforts to get revenge, and she was also disgusted that the Nolans had used Sekaria as a victim of the assassination plan this time. But if she wants to go and denounce these people to Sekaria now...... To be honest, she didn't want to do it until there was really no way around.

The wolf girl's feelings for the Nolan clan have always been very complicated, although she has no sense of belonging to this race that has now become a group of middle two avengers, but as long as she thinks of the evolution law that she has helped her more than once in her life and even saved her, she always feels that she actually owes something to the Nolan clan to some extent, although this does not make her feel guilty to the extent that she must do something to repay it, but it feels quite inauthentic like whistleblowing, and Cheruth really can't do it...... Mental cleanliness?

And. As far as she knows, not all of the Nolan people are reasonable guys like Xingxi. Once you have chosen to snitch. Then it is equivalent to completely tearing the face with Nolan, this group of outlaw avengers can persist for fourteen years for the hatred of the year to endure and develop revenge forces in various places, if they really want to attack themselves and their companions, it is really troublesome.

“...... Xingxi, I know what you think. ”

Chelus spoke slowly, and the two hands beside her gripped Greywind and Nanoha's hands again.

"I know you don't want to see your fellow Nolan people in danger, but. If I were to watch Sekaria being used by you like this, I wouldn't be able to do it, so ...... If I take the place of Sekaria, is that okay?"

The room was silent for a second, and then Grey Wind spoke first.

"No way!"

Sister Wolf was about to get up and leave with Cheruth almost immediately, she knew that her sister was definitely the kind of character who loved to be reckless and finally took all the difficult things on herself, but this matter was too dangerous, Xingxi said that they were going to face the defense force of the royal capital of Lloris and even the three law powerhouses. Nothing can be said to involve Cheruth in such a dangerous thing.

However, Cheruth's hand held Grey Wind tightly, and then Nanoha on the other side was about to open her mouth to say something, and directly raised her hand to press the chestnut-haired girl's lips.

"Sister Grey Wind. Nanoha, I know what you mean, but ...... It's the best way to do it. ”

With that, Cheruth looked at Xingxi earnestly once more.

"Xingxi, the law of my talents, allows me to temporarily transform into Sekaria's form. When the time comes, I'll stun Sekaria herself and hide herself, and I'll take on Sekaria's appearance and cooperate with your actions, is that okay?"

Xingxi looked at Cheruth with a complicated expression.

“...... You know, I'm just a temporary helper transferred from the port side, and I don't know a lot of the details of the plan this time, including how they plan to control Princess Sekaria when the time comes, creating the illusion that the Loris royal family has declared war on the Holy Kingdom of Solan......"

"There are only two kinds, either use mind control spells to manipulate Sekaria herself, or put Sekaria herself under house arrest or even ...... Kill, and then make an imposter that is enough to make the fake real, either way, I need Xingxi's cooperation, if you can guarantee that you are the one responsible for controlling Sekaria at that time, then I will have a way to replace Sekaria as your captive, and then follow your instructions and arrangements with full authority. ”

"If you do this, maybe the princess will hate you for the rest of her life. ”

"I'll let Grey Wind and Nanoha help the current King of Loris guard the palace," Cherus said, smiling at the two beside her, "Your purpose is just to assassinate the Solan Viewing Group, so here in the Loris Palace, you will probably only let your prince's ally deal with it, I won't help the Solan Viewing Group hinder you, but the current royal family and royal ruler of Loris I will defend for Sekaria, and I won't hand it over to the stupid prince who has been used by you for an unknown number of times." As long as the current King of Loris and his power are not affected, even if Sekaria will resent me, I must still have a chance to redeem it. ”

Xingxi looked at Cheruth, who seemed to have made up her mind, and suddenly smiled.

"You are indeed a wayward child, how do you think that I will promise you to betray our allies, and how do you think that Her Royal Highness the princess will really forgive you after you have done such a thing?"

"I'm just going to say the last and best I can think of, if you say yes that's great, if you don't, then there's no room for manoeuvre," Chelus shrugged at Xingxi seemingly easily, "As for Sekaria...... Again, she's smart, and I don't have the confidence to keep her safe at all times without her noticing anything out of the ordinary, so this is the best thing I can think of other than selling you directly to the Loris royal family. ”――

It seems that Cheruth's last words touched Xingxi to some extent, and the black-haired girl finally agreed to go back and ask specifically about the Nolan clan's specific plan for Sekaria's arrangement this time, and then try to get the task of controlling Sekaria that day, and after that, the two parties agreed to meet at the same time in this small inn two days later.

Xingxi secretly ran out at night when everyone was already sleeping, and it was easy to have accidents after a long time, so he left the small hotel in advance and returned to the Vincent Chamber of Commerce, while Cheruth and others stayed in the small room for about half an hour in order to avoid suspicion.

After receiving a personal safety awareness lecture from Sister Gray Wind for half an hour in the small room, such as "Xiaobai, why do you have to do such a dangerous thing, brother, brother, how many times have you said to pay attention to your own safety, balabala......", Cheruth was finally liberated, and the three of them checked out at the front desk of the hotel, and by the way, after making an appointment for the same time in the same room two days later, they quietly left the small hotel.

It was midnight, and there were no pedestrians on the road at all, although the three of them had good combat effectiveness, but after all, it was quite annoying to encounter something similar to midnight on the night road, so the three of them also sped up and ran towards the fruit store.

However, even Grey Wind didn't notice that after they left, a figure under a black cloak walked out of a small alley next to the inn that couldn't be distinguished from the dark alley without looking closely.

The figure waved his hand, as if to lift some kind of restriction around him, and then raised his hand to remove the hood, squinting at the empty street where the figures of the three Cheruth had disappeared in the distance.

“...... Xiaoxi, you really ......"-

The secret agreement between Cheruth and Startide went well, at least until the second meeting two days later.

Xingxi managed to get some information from Vincent about the core of the project. After all the four tournaments are over, Garnes, the prince of Lorris, will once again hold a dinner event at the royal estate outside the royal city, which can be regarded as a consolation for the college students who have finished a series of competitions. And their assassination plan was to be carried out at that time.

At the banquet, first of all, the Nolans infiltrated the venue in advance and tried to use a mind-control potion to temporarily control Sekaria's mind, and then the assassination began. The assassins will firmly control the banquet venue as quickly as possible, kill the members of the Solan Academy at the venue, and then leave a small part to control the children of the other Lorris nobles to let the Lorris royal family throw a mouse, and most of the remaining people will take the controlled Sekaria to the Allante Royal City, and mobilize the royal guards in the name of the princess to attack the Templar Knights stationed around the post house in Allante City, causing even more chaos. Next, Prince Naris, because he appeared with his men, created public opinion to besiege the royal city, adding a fire to this chaos.

Xingxi, on the other hand, after a sincere statement, made Vincent feel very relieved to hand over the task of sneaking into the banquet hall at that time to quickly capture Sekaria and control her with drugs.

Knowing all this, Cheruth also assured Xingxi that she would use herself to drop the real Sekaria before the banquet started, so that Xingxi would only need to do the act of feeding her medicine instead of actually medicating her, and she would cooperate with Xingxi's actions.

The last day of the four-house competition...... There's still about a week to go. (To be continued.) )
