6. Roger's departure

In the morning, Roger had already learned from Fiya that after yesterday's ceremony, the ashes had left yesterday, and seemed to be preoccupied. By the time Roger found Ash, Ash had continued to learn faith and prayer with Colin. Seeing Roger coming, Ash beckoned and gestured.

Seeing that the ashes had returned to their usual appearance, Roger did not mention the news that Fiya had told him, but quipped: "So serious, the most important thing for the fading person is time, don't work too hard." ”

"It's okay, it's mainly a walk around the round table, it's boring, it's better to come to Colin to learn something."

After saying goodbye to Colin, Ash continued to say to Roger, "What do you think of Fiya? ”

"Fia?" "What's wrong with her?"

"She doesn't have much, but do you know the details of Fiya?"

"Fiya's background? , isn't she just a sleeping girl who has been kicked out of her hometown? ”

Looking at the dumbfounded Roger, Ash chuckled.

"You're still too simple."

"Fiya is not as simple as it seems, through yesterday's ritual, I smelled death from Fiya's body!"

"You went too far, and you actually took the opportunity of the ceremony to sniff at other girls." Roger looked at the ashes in disbelief, as if he had been hit hard.

"Don't get excited, my so-called sniffing is just a rhetorical device, and I don't really smell it with my nose." Ash hurriedly explained.

"I'm sensitive to death, so I sensed the breath of death on Fiya's body."

"Really?"

"Really, I swear, it didn't really sniff with your nose!"

"No, I mean, is there really a breath of death hidden in Fiya's body?" Roger asked cautiously.

Ash changed his demeanor and told Roger very seriously that this was not a joke and that he had really found traces of death. Roger also understood the importance of the matter at this time, and was a little overwhelmed.

Ash could understand Roger's mood, so he comforted: "Although it is true that Fiya has the breath of death hidden in her body, through the ritual, I also found out that Fiya did not do anything to hurt others."

"Moreover, from the previous conversation, I can also confirm that Fiya does not have evil intentions."

"Perhaps, she has some troubles!"

After Ash finished speaking, seeing that Roger's mood was gradually stabilizing, he made an opinion.

"A lot of bad endings start with misunderstandings."

"At the moment, everything is speculation, so I suggest asking Fiya directly."

"I'm sure she'll tell the truth."

"Of course, I'm just a newcomer, and I've only known Fei Ya for less than a day."

"So, the choice is still up to you."

Ash finished all his words and began to wait for Roger to speak. I saw Roger press his hat, without saying a word, and walked directly to Fiya's room. Seeing that Roger had made his choice, Ash followed suit and expressed his support.

The two pushed the door in, and Ash carefully locked the door. Of course, all this happened in front of Feiya's eyes. Fei Ya didn't make too many moves, but sat there calmly, as if waiting for Roger's inquiry.

"Fia, Ash told me that there is a breath of death in you, is that true?"

Seeing Roger speak, Fia pulled over a chair and motioned for Roger to sit down. Just as he was about to move another chair, Ash said, "I'll be fine standing." Fiya nodded at Ash, and finally spoke.

"Lord Ash is right, I do have the breath of death in me, and this is the means I use to capture the life that escapes."

"It doesn't hurt anyone, because these lives have escaped and are useless, and even if I don't collect them, they will dissipate."

"As for the origin of the breath of death, I can't tell you."

"Although Mr. Roger took good care of me, the trust was not enough."

Fiya's words are also very direct, first admitting Ash's statement, then stating that she will not harm anyone, and finally warning the two that her secret has been touched. This kind of secret is not something that can be casually told by a passer-by who gets along for a while.

Ash agrees with Fiya's words, for example, Roger has helped him a lot, but he still has some secrets that he can't tell.

After listening to Fiya's words, Roger seemed to be convinced.

"Fia, I've been investigating clues about death, the dead and the night of the conspiracy."

"I understand very well that death is a very terrifying force."

"Those who are trapped between life and death are a group of pitiful worms."

"So, if you have any problems, you can tell me, and I will help you."

Ash shook his head secretly after listening to Roger's words. Not a word is on the point, Fei Ya has already said that without enough trust, who dares to expose everything about himself.

What Ran'er didn't expect was that Fiya actually took out a letter and put it in front of Roger.

He said softly: "This is my secret investigation of the clues about the [Black Knife Guard], since the night of the conspiracy, the Black Knife leader died on the way to escape, and the other Black Knife members have also gone into hiding. ”

"If you can use this clue to find the Black Knife Guard and successfully kill him, then I will say anything."

After saying this, Fiya didn't wait for Roger's reaction, and turned around directly, only giving him a back.

Roger looked at Fia's back and said, "Wait for me to come back." He picked up the envelope and walked out the door.

A good show is over, and it is not suitable to continue to be a funman, and Ash turns and walks out of the room.

Roger outside the door didn't have the slightest expression of frustration, and was even a little eager to try, which made Ash curious. Roger saw Ash's confusion and explained as he walked.

"Although Fiya and I have known each other for a long time and can be called friends, they are just ordinary friends."

"Your discovery this time has given me a chance to go further."

"At the same time, the [Black Knife] clue is also an unexpected joy, and it is my goal in itself."

"So I'm going to go anyway, and if it's successful, Fiya and I will be fellow travelers!"

Seeing Roger's fighting spirits, Ash could only wish him all the best.

The two returned to Roger's room, and Roger explained while packing his things.

"You just stay in my room, it's spacious anyway, and it's more than enough for a few more beds."

"Although it is forbidden for the Round Table to attack each other, some [intruders] will take advantage of various loopholes, and they may suffer losses."

"In this room, I have arranged a lot of magic, and if someone invades, it will serve as a warning."

Suddenly, Roger slapped his head. "I almost forgot to tell you that the round table can leave at will and come back at any time, through the old round table in the middle of the hall, it is the coordinates that connect to reality."

"This time, I don't know when I'll be back, you can go around."

"Remember, try not to go near the [Galid] region, which is tainted by the Crimson Curse and infested with poisonous insects and strange enemies."

"With your strength, the Weeping Peninsula and the Misty Forest are more suitable."

"The map is here, see for yourself, I'm leaving."

As the words ended, Roger's figure also disappeared into the round table hall.

Although he got the map, Ash didn't have the decision to travel, isn't it good to stay at the round table, no one will dislike the long vacation.

Roger was gone for more than a week, and Ash remained at the Round Table gathering point, learning faith and prayer with Colin every morning.

After a lunch break, practice your combat skills. It's been a long time since I've had this idleness.

Of course, these days, Ash also knows more about the roundtable gathering point.

On the staircase south of Fia's room, there was a subhuman blacksmith locked up, clanging and silent all day. Ash passed by a few times, but didn't come forward to say hello. D still looks arrogant, but he is not always there, and he is probably still hunting the dead. In the innermost part of the round table, where there is no light, there are two twin old women. Although Ash was used to seeing weirdness, he was also taken aback for the first time. Mainly, that environment is also too underworldly.

However, after getting acquainted, these two old women get along very well, and they are also a grocer, selling some gadgets to faders. Elden's currency is not a soul, but a shard of power called Rune. This kind of shard can be obtained by defeating monsters, and the enemies of Stonewell City have contributed a lot to Ash, so a brand new torch has been tied to Ash's waist.

At the same time, while chatting with Colin, Ash also learned that there was a [two fingers] in this round table gathering point, and Colin had not seen anything specific. According to Colin's explanation, this "two fingers" are still very proud, and the faded ones who cannot see the blessing guide will not be accepted.

Ash didn't know if the golden-colored energy like a campfire was a blessing, but [Two Fingers] really didn't find himself.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and there is still no news from Roger. The ashes have "hollowed out" Colin, and all the beliefs and prayers that Colin would have prayed in have been exhausted. If you want to continue learning advanced skills, you have to go out and find the lost faith books, and then give them to Colin to analyze.

In this regard, Ash is not in a hurry, and if he doesn't have it, he won't learn it first. These primary faith skills have been integrated with their own martial arts, and the various connections are very smooth.

After chatting with Colin, Ash prepares to ask Fiya for a warm hug and then take a nap, when two new faces come to the round table. The so-called new faces, too, are only ashes think. The man at the head was wearing a brass-colored armor with carved eye patterns and a unique helmet shape, but he just glanced at the ashes and strode away.

The other man was even more peculiar, not to mention the armor, it was the mask, and the ashes could be seen at a glance to be made of real heads. The man also has a human bone tied to his left hand, and the front end is very sharp, so you can tell at a glance that he is not a guy to mess with.

After the two of them left, Colin told Ash that the leader was called Sir Brook, the patriarch of the Round Table Gathering Point. With the most abundant knowledge, there is almost nothing he doesn't know about the entire Elden Continent. Even the understanding of demigods is beyond ordinary people.
