The Knights of the Templar are not fools without intelligence and brains, and in this chaotic situation, unless it is the deputy head of Zarco, whose prestige is second only to the chief regiment Red among them, even if the Holy Lady Jenny breaks through the layers and returns to them, they will not immediately listen to each other, and at least ask what happened outside during this time, not to mention that Raphael's identity is only a candidate saint.

Therefore, when Cheruth made a plan, she had already reserved time for Raphael to explain the current situation, she made an appointment with the two of them, Nanoha escorted Raphael to rush in and join the Templar Knights, and after half an hour or so, the Templar Knights launched a feint attack from the inside towards the location where the impostor Sekaria was now, and she took advantage of the opportunity that the royal guards over there were all attracted by the Templar Knights, and then quickly swept down from the air to stun the impostor and take it away.

The first half of the plan was quite successful, with a simple feint tactic allowing Nanoha and Raphael to break through the Royal Guard's blockade outside the post station and rush in, while Cheruth retreated unentangled by the Royal Guard.

However, while Cheruth was secretly moving towards Sekaria's neighborhood while Raphael and the Templars were interacting with him, an accident happened.

To be precise, it was the unexpected person who appeared...... And it's two successively.

Standing in the middle of the empty market, Cheruth looked at Xingxi and Ali Ali standing in front of her, and immediately after the appearance of these two people, Gurney King Kong and Egger appeared behind the two, and couldn't help but feel a headache and boredom.

If she was still full of anger at the Nolan clan who used and hurt Sekaria under her nose before, and was full of annoyance at Xingxi's use of deception because she didn't know the truth, then the current wolf girl really doesn't want to see her own kind. There are still ten minutes or so before the plan she and Nanoharafael have made will start to be implemented, and she is still in a hurry to grab the soul that occupies Sekaria's body and send it to the royal city so that Sister Harrow can find a way to save her, where is the idle man to accompany Nolan's masters?

...... That's right, it's tearing.

“...... Gurney, how many truths have you told me since you came to Loris?"

Xingxi, who was holding a small bottle of ordinary water in his hand, had a deep sadness on his face with anger. And Gurney, who was stared at by Xingxi, didn't have a very deep heart at all, just raised his hand and scratched his face, as if he had been exposed to a harmless little deception, and smiled easily.

"Xiaoxi, I hope you can calm down as much as you normally do...... You should know why I did this, it was a choice that had to be made for the sake of our revenge plan. ”

To be honest, although she learned about the Nolan tribe's treatment of Xingxi this time from Ali Ali, she really didn't expect these of her fellow citizens to do such a ...... Simply and thoroughly-

A few minutes ago, just as Cheruth was approaching the position of the imposter Sekaria from the outer alley while avoiding the sight of the royal guards outside the inn, she was suddenly stopped by two people, Xingxi and Ali Ali, who appeared from the alley.

Because she knew that Xingxi didn't deliberately deceive herself, but was completely cheated by her teammates, Cheruth didn't break her face with Xingxi and did it directly, but just said hello lukewarmly and turned around and planned to leave.

She can probably guess what Xingxi wants to do when he appears here now, Ali Ali and Gurney and those people don't know their hidden Nolan identity, so in their opinion, they are simply an outsider who can be easily eliminated after using it, but Xingxi knows his identity and has always wanted to return to the Nolan clan, although Xingxi showed such dissatisfaction with Cheruth in the tavern before, but from another point of view, Xingxi really cherishes every Nolan people, including Cheruth, as she said。

At present, the Nolan's plan has basically failed, so neatly retreating from the arena without stubbornly trying to kill Zarco, who has been seriously injured, and not continuing to look for the Holy Maiden Jenny with great fanfare, it can be seen that the Nolans have basically admitted defeat this time and began to plan to evacuate with all their members. And at this time, Xingxi will appear here, naturally it will not be to do something to herself, I am afraid that Xingxi is trying to appease her, and try not to make her irreversible antipathy towards these fellow clansmen because of this incident.

However, Cheruth didn't want to give Xingxi this face this time, not that she wanted to break with Xingxi completely, but after experiencing the dangerous incident that Sekaria encountered this time, Cheruth had already figured it out a little...... Although it seems that both Xingxi and she are victims of this incident, and neither of them seems to have done anything to be sorry for each other on the surface, but in the final analysis, this matter will develop like this, and the source is indeed inseparable from the innocence in the bones of the two people.

Cheruth has her own insistence, and Xingxi also has things she can't compromise, both of them hope to come up with the best of both worlds, but in fact it doesn't work at all, because no matter how much you try to detour, the things that can't be backed down are still there, and forcibly ignoring or even deceiving yourself to suppress the contradictions will only create more contradictions in the end, and cause more troubles in other things that they can't control...... It's like this time.

So, instead of letting two people hurt themselves and those around them again and again in a painful compromise, it is better for two people not to have such naïve thoughts from the beginning. The Tao is not the same, and there is a conflict between the things that the two sides are guarding, so it is good for the two people to fight directly without spending too much, and after the fight, if they can still be friends again, of course, it is good, if they break off the connection between each other because of this conflict...... Maybe that's a kind of luck from a certain point of view, isn't it?

Xingxi didn't know the wolf girl's thoughts, and she didn't have the decisive consciousness of Cheruth. Just as Cerus thought, she went to the fake princess at this time and waited for Cerus to come to the door, just to appease Chelus, who had been deceived by her fellow clansmen and hurt her friends, so as not to cut off the possibility of the child returning to Nolan. However, after seeing Cheruth ignoring herself so coldly, Xingxi felt guilty and sad in her heart, but also had a somewhat keenly instinct: if she really let go of the wolf girl like this, then the next meeting would almost be certain that the two sides had no room for redemption and wanted to become enemies.

So Xingxi didn't care about saying some meaningless words to soothe his emotions, so he directly took out the two bottles of potion that Gurney gave him, wanting to attract the cold wolf girl and let her at least accept her favor.

But Xingxi didn't expect that Gurney was lying to her even about using drugs to control Sekaria.

Cheruth watched Xingxi take out two potions with an oath, expecting that she would be able to show the slightest understanding, and for a moment she couldn't bear to tell Xingxi that she had been deceived by her companion even this, but just when the wolf girl hadn't decided whether to ruthlessly expose the facts or be considerate of Xingxi's mood and pretend to accept it, Rigney and the other three appeared from a small alley behind Xingxi.

"Xingxi, you're really here. ”

Gurney looked at Xingxi, who was showing Cheruth with the so-called "antidote", with a complicated expression.

"Gurney, you ......"

Xingxi was a little surprised, she woke up at the hiding point, and after listening to Ali Ali explain everything today, she directly took Ali Ali and the two of them here to wait for Cheruth, during which she didn't tell anyone her whereabouts, how did Gurney know that they were here?

Gurney looked away from the vial in Xingxi's hand and gave Xingxi a seemingly friendly smile.

"Are you surprised?Xiaoxi, we went to the hideout to look for you, but we were told that you left with Ali Ali, and now that the assassination mission is over, is there any next mission instruction, according to common sense, you should stay in the hideout and be on standby, and if you can make Xingxi you disobey the plan and common sense, I think about it, there is only one answer...... You want to help save the princess, don't you?"

Xingxi was stunned for a moment, but soon figured out that Gurney must have misunderstood that he was not simply in a relationship with Cheruth, but with Sekaria, and that Cheruth was just a middleman...... No wonder he would use this method against himself, after all, befriending a girl who doesn't seem to have a clear power affiliation is actually not too serious a mistake, but if he has anything to do with a sensitive person like the princess of a country without the permission of the Great Elder, it is indeed easy to cause some unnecessary misunderstandings among his companions.

But then, Xingxi suddenly became nervous, so to say, Gurney chased after him, is it to prevent himself from sending medicine to Cheruth to save the princess of Loris? Although she really has nothing to do with the princess of Lorris, but the princess is Cheruth's best friend, once the princess receives any irreparable damage, Cheruth is afraid that she will really break with the Nolan clan completely.

Thinking like this, Xingxi raised her hand to throw the antidote in her hand to Cheruth, but she realized Gurney's ability to interrupt the law, and the other party was able to interrupt all the continuous sexual behaviors she saw, even if she threw things out, it was estimated that she would not be able to reach Cheruth.

Gurney smiled as he watched Xingxi's hand holding the "antidote" rise.

"It's useless, Xiaoxi, what you have in your hand can't save that princess. ”

Xingxi was stunned.

“...... What do you mean?"

"Just like the literal meaning, if you don't believe me, you can ask this wolf lady, since she is here now, she must have already known the real method we used to control that princess. ”

Xingxi's mouth opened slightly, and she turned her head to look at Cheruth.

“...... Xingxi, Sekaria is not controlled with potions. ”

At this point, Cheruth had no choice but to tell the truth.

"Huh?"

Ali Ali, who had been standing behind Xingxi with a tangled face, couldn't help but be slightly surprised, she clearly remembered that Gurney told her that he had drugged the princess?

Xingxi clenched the medicine bottle in his hand and bit his lip tightly for a long time.

“...... Gurney, did you lie to me again?"

Gurney's smile became slightly awkward.

“...... Gurney, how many truths have you told me since you came to Loris?"

"Xiaoxi, I hope you can calm down as much as you normally do...... You should know why I did this, it was a choice that had to be made for the sake of our revenge plan. ”

Xingxi looked at Gurney angrily, but found with some sadness that not only did Gurney look natural when he said these words, but even King Kong and Egger, who were standing behind Gurney, looked at her with an approving look at at her at this time, looking at her expression like a vexatious child.

...... The people she desperately wanted to protect took it for granted to deceive her and use her...... They didn't even ask themselves why they interceded on behalf of the princess, nor did they ask what they had in mind, but for the sake of revenge, they could even use their relatives like outsiders...... The difference is just whether or not the props will be "recycled" afterwards.

...... It's not something she wants to protect...... Obviously not......

Gurney looked at Xingxi's angry and confused expression, but he didn't feel heartache but was a little relieved, obviously taking Xingxi's confusion as a kind of reawakening and reminiscence of his "revenge mission", but just when he wanted to say something more to do some "enlightenment" to Xingxi, he suddenly saw that the wolf girl who was stopped by Xingxi before was sneakily trying to slip away.

In fact, by now, Gurney has a little doubt that Xingxi has a connection with the princess or simply has a relationship with Cheruth, although at first he had a preconceived idea because Xingxi first interceded with the princess, but then he thought about it, almost all of the people who have been in contact with Xingxi have been this girl named Cheruth...... Anyway, now that they had met here, Gurney didn't think he could just let the wolf girl go so easily.

It wasn't the first time she and her sister had thwarted the Nolans' plans, and Gurnico remembered very well how the perfect plan they had set up with them and Butler two years earlier had been ruined by a series of accidents. And now this time, my sister Xianwolf stopped Prince Naris on the side of the royal city, and my sister got into a relationship with Xingxi in advance and almost leaked their plan...... Since they are enemies, they can't tolerate the other party getting in their way again and again and then retreat.

"Stop!" (To be continued.) )
