42. Cardinal (2-in-1)

When did Helena start to fall in love with the man from outside the palace, Adras?

She really didn't remember exactly, but she remembered her heart beating fast when she first saw Adras, especially when she saw the melancholy that never dissipated at the glance on his brow.

The sorrow hanging on such a beautiful face, just seeing it can make a lady of a female country can't help but soothe that grief for him...

Obviously, his expression was so obvious, but why didn't his mother realize it?

Although similar to her mother's appearance, Helena's heart is much more delicate, and she soon becomes keenly aware of her inner feelings for Adras, and of course knows that such forbidden feelings can never be tolerated by the world, so she can only keep it in her heart, as a secret that she knows alone.

But even so, sometimes Helena couldn't help but want to look at each other from a distance.

I watched him come alone to the depths of the courtyard far from the court, watched him stay in the pavilion alone in his robe, watched him hold Aragina in his arms like doting...

It is precisely because of this hidden emotion that she has always had a strange feeling about her sister Alajina.

Because of her resemblance to Adras, Helena paid a lot of attention to her; Because of Adlars' doting on her, Helena was especially jealous of her.

Until one day, Helena's patience reached the limit, which made her muster up the courage to finally come to Adras and reveal her inner feelings to him.

Unsurprisingly, she was sternly rejected by Adriath, and even now she remembers the stunned, disgusting look on his face.

That expression stabbed her, making her ashamed and ashamed, so she finally chose to leave the Hammond Partition and chose to go to the side of the co-lord to be enshrined as a Phoenix Knight.

But staying away from Hammond's fiefdom did not give Helena the forgetfulness and peace she craved, her spirit was trapped in unbloomed emotions, and instead of liberation, she was greeted by the simple message that Adras had committed suicide by throwing himself into the lake.

Helena, who was far away under the co-throne at that time, suddenly regretted leaving the Hammond Partition, if she was still there at the time, maybe Adras would not have ended up like this...

In the tavern, Aragina, who felt quite tired, raised her fist high at Helena, but never fell to her face.

β€œ... You Hammonds don't deserve to mention my father, and all of you make me feel disgusted! ”

"Ha, do you hate your family... You're not the first and not the last, but does it all really make sense? ”

Helena narrowed her swollen eyes from Arajina, looked at her and sneered,

"Arajina, you have a lot of things that others can't envy, and those are the source of your envy. You have the talents that your mother was amazed with, you have the favor of Adras, you have loyal subordinates, but you don't do anything, you can't grasp anything..."

"You obviously have countless conditions that are countless times better than me to save Adras from the sea of suffering, can change the situation of the Hammond family and the feudal kingdom, and can make a name for yourself in the outside world, but you have wasted the capital you have."

"To me, you're a bastard with no talent but no goals, like a fool throwing money around with a belly full of wealth... Hehe, however, Alajina, what I want to say to you is to seek the upper and lower, and to seek the lower and the lower. The smaller the goal, the less you will get! ”

Helena's words rang out, making Arajina slightly stunned, as if she had been poked in the sore spot in her heart.

While her father was still alive, her goal was to stay with him, and for her, the future throne and power were clouds; When she was avenging her father, her goal was only to kill Hammond, and she didn't care what the future of the kingdom would be...

But in the end, what did such a simple goal lead to?

Her father was forced to die by throwing herself into the lake, and the kingdom of Hammond, which had lost its feudal king, was replaced by another mediocre replacement, and even she and her subordinates became the wanted criminals of the Satinia women's kingdom and roamed the world...

Maybe Helena was right, if her goals had been more ambitious and she had worked harder, would the end result be better?

Just like now, if your goal is just to give the crew a good ending, just to marry Fisher and be with him, can you really get such a result by setting such a goal?

Just when Alagina was slightly stunned because of her thoughts, Helena under her suddenly burst out and punched Aragina in the face again.

"Bump!"

"Ugh!"

With the final punch dropping, the atmosphere in the room really quieted down, leaving only the constant wheezing sound of the two sisters one after another.

The two of them lay on the floor covered in scars, staring blankly at the ceiling, neither of them speaking, focusing 100 percent on breathing, reminiscing, and the conversation they had just had.

There is no snow in the country of Sardinia, and the years have passed, so the revival of the old story at this time adds a bit of reflection to both of them.

Hearing the movement in the room quieted down again, Fisher, who had been waiting at the door for a long time, walked into the room with a strange face.

Well, yes, in fact, Fisher had already arrived outside the battlefield of Arajina and Helena, but he heard the conversation between the two of them as soon as he arrived, so Fisher didn't rush into the room to interrupt their conversation.

Outside, Ossie was still trying to wake up the crew, and the Phoenix Knight brought by Helena probably hadn't been able to get up from the ground, so no one should be able to hear their conversation except herself.

At first, he thought that Helena was a loyal fan of Arajina's mother and had come to settle the crimes committed by Arajina, but he didn't expect that she had a crush on Arajina's father, and the reason for the fight with her was entirely because she was jealous of the daughter of her crush?

Although it sounds like a bit chaotic relationship, if you do the math carefully, Arajina's father is much younger than her mother, only 8 years older than Helena, and the aesthetics of the mother and daughter are unexpectedly consistent at this moment, which makes it a little difficult for Fisher to judge the merits, and can only give her the most basic respect for her emotions...

But after all, these things are already in the past, and they have come to an end in the "intimate exchange" just now.

As Helena said, Arajina's heart was already dead when her father died, and it seemed that the purpose of her coming to find Aragina was somewhat unclear...

It wasn't necessarily true that it was a response to her past jealousy of Aragina, otherwise she wouldn't have said those words to Aragina in the end.

What the hell is, maybe only Helena herself knows, and Fisher doesn't care.

He just took off the cloak from Osie on his face, and then came to Arajina's side, helped her up a little, looked at her and said,

"Alajina, are you alright?"

"Fisher..."

In fact, both Aragina and Helena were badly injured, and her fist-to-flesh and merciless attacks had caused a lot of bruises and dried blood on her face, making her look quite embarrassed now.

But even so, she would subconsciously avoid Fisher's gaze, as if she didn't want him to see his fragile appearance now, and even said a cute and reckless word that Fisher expected,

"I'm fine..."

Fisher didn't expose her stubbornness, but just reached out and wiped the blood oozing from the corner of her mouth before saying,

"I don't have any healing magic here right now, I'll just engrave one for you later."

β€œ... Well. Thank you, Fisher. ”

Aragina pursed her lips, as if warmed by his words, and reached out and gently pinched the corner of Fisher's clothes, but did not make any other excessive moves, as if this was enough, and the pain on her body was relieved a lot.

Helena, who was gasping for breath next to her, lifted her body with difficulty, and what she saw was her sister gently leaning on the side of a handsome man, and they warmed up the room like the center of the heat source, leaving Helena next to her alone in the biting cold wind of the Sardinia woman's country.

She opened her mouth, chewed on the bitter taste of the blood from the wound in her mouth, and then moved herself alone and leaned against the wall next to her, saying nothing.

"Fisher, Pahetz, they..."

"Ah, they're fine. Or rather, this sister of yours didn't even think to touch your crew, she came to you. ”

Aragina, who was in Fisher's arms, turned her head to look at Helena, but saw her sneer and shook her head,

"Do you really think I'm going to come to you for my mother's sake? Don't be naΓ―ve... If it weren't for the mission arranged by the co-host, we wouldn't have met. And now, I'm just here to confirm your purity as a woman. ”

Helena's expression looked a little lonely, she didn't look at Alagina's face, for fear that she would think of someone hidden in her memory.

"But what I said before is not false, Arajina. The future of this world is not a frozen lake, but a storm that is about to roar. Nari's new queen, Kado's Holy Pope, Pirate Harbor's Black Chief... Those are not monsters that can be easily understood, and the future of this world will become more complicated. ”

"Even the northern frontier is about to undergo strange changes because of the ice that appears on this island. So, Arajina, staying where you are will only make you lose more..."

Aragina still ignored her words with a cold face, she really didn't have a good impression of this sister who thought very much about her father, but she kept her words in her heart and didn't make any other response.

But Helena didn't expect her to respond to herself, she just rubbed her shoulders and slowly got up from the wall.

It did seem that her physical fitness was much better than that of Arajina, but this respite was enough for her to regain her mobility.

Speaking of which, Fisher has always wondered why the women of the Sardinia country are so much stronger than the men of other countries.

Fisher, who was now familiar with the theory of rank, suddenly began to wonder if it was possible that they had some kind of high-ranking subhuman blood in their bodies, which created this special phenomenon?

Well, it seems very likely, so let's look into the source of this phenomenon later.

"Alright, it's time for me to get out of here with that bunch of garbage, and you guys should get out of Patthioson Island, it's not safe here..."

Well, leave?

Fisher glanced at Helena, who was twisting her neck and walking out, with some confusion as she meant.

"Aren't you going to make a deal with the Nari, and you're going to leave before you make a deal?"

Hearing Fisher's question, Helena was a little surprised, looked at Fisher beside Aragina and said,

"Man, you know a lot. You're right, we did come to make a deal with the Nari, who took a piece of ice from Mia's territory and told us the news. But it wasn't until I got to the island that I thought there was something strange about their people, especially the people who started the company..."

"Strange?"

"Hmm..."

Helena seemed to think of something, and her expression looked a little serious,

"I feel that the smell of the group of people who started the company is very strange, and the smell on their bodies is also very special, like the feeling of several people put together, so we postponed the transaction."

"Sure enough, the Lady Kingdom has just sent us a warning through magic, saying that Mia's warship is approaching this side, and that we should abandon the deal and leave Pattishen Island... I don't know what's going on on the Nari side, but we don't dare to bet that it will be troublesome if we fall into the trap, so we tell you to be careful and get out of here as soon as possible. ”

Fisher suddenly grasped the key information in the other party's words, and he seemed to realize something strange.

Mia's warship is now approaching this side, so what is the situation with the Snow Cloud Assault Team encountered before? Could it be that this is also part of their plan without revealing it to themselves?

But if they had said that Mia's warship would have been pulled over directly in disregard of other countries, there would have been no need to contact the Iceberg Queen for their help...

Or did they contact the Iceberg Queen for some other purpose?

For example, yourself.

Moreover, Mia's warship came directly and forcefully, wouldn't the Sardinia and Nari have some feedback?

Now even the Phoenix Knights of the Sardinia Female Kingdom can't figure out what is happening, and the only possibility is that something has happened to the Nari forces on this island, making them suddenly get out of their original plan...

Fisher's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly bowed his head and said to Arajina,

"Alajina, you recuperate here first, I have something to deal with!"

"Fisher..."

But before she could finish her sentence, Fisher had already helped her to the wall, and then ran wildly outside.

He trotted all the way from the tavern, past Osie who was handling the wounded outside, and the Phoenix Knight, who slowly walked into the tavern, all the way to the street.

There were few people outside, and there was no movement at all in the tavern where the Nari people lived in the distance, except for the distant voices of Mia warships and pirate ships negotiating.

Fisher frowned, took out the mechanical card that Briel had given him before, tapped it and put it to his ear, and within a few seconds, there was the sound of the cloud cat breed Brier,

"Ah, just right, Mr. Benavides, I've pretty much dealt with it here, how is your situation there?"

Fisher's face became more and more serious, he seemed to understand something, ignored his politeness at all, and suddenly said,

"You, you're not from the Snow Cloud Assault Team, who are you?"

Yes, Fisher suddenly understood that the Briel and his party they met before were not from the Snow Cloud Assault Team at all, and Fisher had been suspicious of them as early as when they took out those strange manual creations, and now that something happened to the Nari people, he became more and more convinced of this idea.

If it was an ordinary situation, the Mila warship could sail here, and neither the Sardinia country nor Nari would sit idly by, and only when there was an accident in the Nari people on Pathioshen Island, so that the Nari official could not be contacted, and thus the Sardinia women's country did not understand what Nari meant, the transaction would be forced to be canceled.

Brier's voice abruptly stopped, and it wasn't until a moment later that it came again,

"What an unexpected acuity, Mr. Benavides... But it doesn't matter, I'm still in the hotel where the Nari people live, and the risk of life has been temporarily ruled out, if you have any questions, you can come and ask me, it just so happens that I also have something I want to talk to you about, about the matter in Nari. ”

Earlwind?

The group of Nari who came to trade were targeted by Earwind, but why?

Is it because of yourself, or because of something else?

And those cloud cats don't care about the deal between Nari and the Satin women, they are eyeing Earwind, who has done something to Nari, they are the people of the Creation Society...

Fisher looked at the card in his hand, and after being silent for two or three seconds, he moved his steps and ran in the direction of the tavern where the Nari people lived in the distance.

β€œ... I'll come over now. ”

"Waiting for your visit."

......

......

In fact, the location of Arajina and the others was still far from where the Nari people lived, but with the excessive blessing of the Fisher dragon race, it didn't take long for him to arrive at the door of the most luxurious hotel on the island of Pattishen.

Not surprisingly, the hotel in front of me was also quiet, as if it had been completely cleared.

Fisher frowned and walked into the lobby of the hotel, and was immediately startled by the scene inside, only to see countless figures standing in the lobby of the tavern, including the service staff of the original hotel, and the gangsters holding muskets, but at this moment their bodies were standing straight, as if they were a puppet.

A faint glow continued to swell from their bodies, and the glow Fisher seemed familiar, just like the glow of the intelligent machinery that he had seen in the cloud cat species before... There also seems to be something glowing in these people's bodies.

Just as Fisher was looking at his surroundings, the waiter of a hotel next to him suddenly turned his head and said to him,

"Mr. Fisher Benavides, I am waiting for you in room 304. Don't worry, they're all alive, and they'll lose their memories and return to normal when I'm gone. ”

"Please hurry up, it won't be long before Mia lands on the island, and I'll have to leave here then."

Fisher glanced at the direction of the staircase where the puppet-like man was pointing out, and then put the black fluid sword in his hand, and Emhart on his shoulder was also frightened, and just about to speak, a wave like an electric arc suddenly came from around him and hit him, causing him to lose consciousness in an instant and turn back into an ordinary book.

"Please understand that our conversations are to be kept confidential and not to be recorded or memorized by any other sapient being."

Fisher had no choice but to take Emhart back into his arms and follow the puppet-like figures up the stairs.

Swirling stairs went up, and Fisher quickly reached the third floor, where he reached the door of Room 304, which was closed doors.

It was quiet, but when he came to the door of 304, Fisher still smelled a strong smell of blood from it.

"Bang!"

In the next second, the door in front of Fisher suddenly opened, revealing a messy room inside.

I saw that the interior of the room was covered with a lot of broken flesh, and there were still scattered among them, I don't know if it was from a human component.

Fisher, fearing that a worm or a strange monster attached to Erwind's consciousness would suddenly pop out of somewhere in the room, he looked around the door vigilantly, but found no danger.

"Don't worry, Life Qing's consciousness has left this island, and he hasn't gotten what he wants."

At that moment, a mechanical, emotionless, unwavering voice sounded from the room, interrupting Fisher's vigilant observation.

He paused for a second and walked slowly into the room, only to see a row of puppet-like cloud cats standing in the room, which were none other than the Briel brothers and sisters he had met earlier.

Their expressions were sluggish, and their bodies also lit up with strange lights, as if some kind of mechanical part was implanted in their bodies.

Fisher looked at them, then turned his gaze to the source of the voice, a mechanical object that floated in the middle of the room, like an eye.

That's the prototype of the annihilation that Blair introduced earlier.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Fisher Benavides, but it wasn't my intention to meet you in this way. This is a direct procedure set by [Destiny], and I can only abide by the production specifications she left behind. ”

The light on the body of the annihilation prototype became more and more vigorous, as if he was breathing in and out of Fisher, and he shook his body for a moment, and then said to him in a monotonous and emotionless voice like a machine,

"The first time I introduce myself to you, the first time I meet, the honorable owner of the completion manual, Mr. Fisher Benavides."

"I'm a member of the Society of Creation, the Cardinal in charge of the Northern Region, and it's a pleasure to meet you."
