readx; When Loucien returned to the ship with Ashini, she was pale and semi-unconscious, but the blood had frozen as it flowed out of her left chest. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
"Lu Lian, how is she. Carlo said anxiously.
As a result, Lou Dien glared at him angrily, ignored him, and said to Captain Hals, "Sail the boat, full speed." He carried Arsini back to his room, and shut out the door from Carlo, who had come with him.
Carlo, who was in the hallway, kept wandering in the doorway, and it was not until half an hour that Lou Lien opened the door and said to him a little tiredly, "Come in."
Carlo looked like he was looking at him, and then he walked into the room, where Atheni had changed into her pajamas and was lying on the bed, and the bloody tunic was still on the table, along with three or four steel needles.
"It's you. Ashini's face was still pale, but much better than before, but still in good spirits, "I'm sorry, it seems that I don't have much energy to teach you to read and write during this time." After saying that, he continued to close his eyes and rest.
"Lutia, is she badly injured?" Carlo asked, forgetting to add an honorific because of what had just happened.
"It doesn't matter if she's hurt, it's just that when the assassin struck the last blow just now, she didn't stop it with all her might, and the steel needle pierced the ice armor. But fortunately, with this layer of ice armor, the steel needle did not penetrate her heart, otherwise it would be dangerous.
I didn't expect the Assassins to use a steel needle to bomb something as terrifying, which was only circulated on the black market, and was hard to come by, as it had always been a mystery how to hide a three-inch steel needle in a two-inch ball.
Now, because her internal organs have been impacted and she needs to recuperate, you don't want to disturb her. Lu Li'an picked up the bloody clothes and steel needles, and prepared to leave the room.
"Ludian, you have the ability to kill all the assassins in one blow, why didn't you do that. ”
Lu Li'an suddenly threw the bloody clothes in her hand in Carlo's face, and said angrily, "Hmph, if it weren't for you, Ashini wouldn't have been hurt at all." ”
"W-why?" said Carlo in surprise as he held the bloody coat.
"Lutien, quiet. Ashini whispered.
Ahini's unconscious murmur made Lu Yuan'an's tone tighten, and she suppressed her anger and said: "I already told you just now, those mercenaries sent a signal to attack, it was an open killing, but this kind of attack is not the first time for us, this kind of attack has never been successful, so Ahini thinks that there may be assassins among these mercenaries, maybe the other party already knows that Marquis Daniel handed over the title inheritance document to Ahini, so they can only take a risk."
And my identity with Atheini's Demon Warrior has never been revealed, and in order to test them, Aherini showed her talent as an Ice Demon Warrior. You must know that the gap between the demon warrior and the ordinary knight is very large, but those people are actually indifferent to this, and Ashini judged that this attack may not be so simple, and there may be assassins hidden in it.
But to ensure your safety, she decides to take the risk of finding out the assassin. That's why I fought the mercenaries, and Ashini watched and found the assassins, but all of that was shattered by your presence.
When she saw you appear, she was worried that you would be implicated, after all, you were with us, so let me be serious, even though it might give us some trouble.
However, you didn't expect you to reveal the identity of one of the assassins, in fact, that person was too obvious, Ashini had already noticed it, she was sure that this was not the only assassin, but a disguise. But your reminder had to get him to do it early, so she was attacked.
So, now you have to stay by her side until she gets better, this is her request, and you have no right to refuse. ”
After saying that, Lou Lien took the bloody clothes from Carlo's hand, glared at him, and left the room.
Lucien left the room, and Arcini was already asleep at the moment, only Carlo sat alone on the edge of the bed, bowing his head and pondering, he did not understand, in his understanding, he should be the prop that Atheini used to play with Lucien, why did she take such a risk to protect herself? What's more, Carlo had speculated that Lou Dioen's mother had killed her mistress as a maid, and she was afraid that her biological mother would also die because of Atheini. He didn't understand what he was in the eyes of Ahini and Lou Dieam.
Two days later, the ship arrived in the royal capital, and by this time Ashini was much better, and although she was still a little weak, it made her look more like a delicate aristocratic lady.
The royal capital of West Said, as the royal city of the human city-state in the Eastern Continent, was so magnificent that Carlo had not expected, and the dock alone was five or six hundred meters long, and it was obviously excavated by hand. Howles's cargo ship docked here, like children huddled among adults.
When she arrived at the shore, as the Marquis de Daniel had said, there was already someone waiting on the shore, who was wearing a white gauze dress and holding a parasol, and as soon as the boat came to the shore, she put away the parasol and greeted her.
"Captain Howles, seeing that you have arrived, it seems that Miss Atheini has also arrived. The man said with a smile.
Howles put away his pipe and saluted, "Yes, Miss Roman." ”
"Roman, it seems that you don't know me anymore. Atheni smiled, at this time she was wearing Carlo's clothes, which didn't look so conspicuous, but fortunately, she was petite, and Carlo's clothes were just right to wear.
"Miss Athenie, why are you dressed like this? Roman took off her white visor, revealing her delicate and attractive countenance.
"Roman, it seems that you really don't know me anymore, but it's no wonder, after all, six years have passed, and we have changed a lot, but you better keep quiet, otherwise my outfit will be in vain. ”
"What's the matter, Miss Athenie, have you been attacked on your way?" asked Roman in a low voice.
"Yes, after that, I'll have people dress up as us, and I'll dress up as men, so as not to get into trouble, until I'm done with things. By the way, what about your father, shouldn't he come and pick us up?"
"I'm sorry miss, you were half a day earlier than we expected, but fortunately I was anxious to see you so I could meet you in the morning. ”
"I see, it seems that you are really in a hurry to see me, okay thank you for waiting, now please help me bring my guests back to rest, I am going to go to the history academy with Lu Li'an to get things done, I don't want to wear this dress all the time." ”
"Miss Atheni, do you need me to keep some guards along?"
"No need, they don't have time to set up assassinations in the royal capital, don't worry. ”
"Alright then, there's a carriage over there that is mine, let the coachman take you first. ”
"Well, in that case, you can take my guest around the streets, his name is Renaud, and he is my attendant. ”
"Follow, I'm afraid it's more than that, miss, okay, I will do what you ask. Roman laughed as he watched Atheni and Loucien leave in the carriage, before turning back to look at Carlo.
