Chapter 19: Let's Go ......
Watched by thousands of longbowmen, Schillelia could not land with Christina, but Christina took off from the fortress and came to the two of them on a broomstick that looked exactly like the two of them.
Theresa took out a short rod from under her skirt and confronted the witch, who did not even dare to show her face: "Where is the stranger with the surname Si? Hurry up and hand him over, or I will raze your army!"
Hillelia clenched Theresa's fists, she was nervous, her palms covered with beads of sweat even in the cold wind howling in the sky.
"Are you kidding? Christina didn't care about Theresa's threat - she was already a person who knew the Auvergne family well, "The kind of magician who can fight a legion alone has long been a legend that belongs only to antiquity. You may be able to find it out now, but it won't be you! Don't scare people with your pointed ears, maybe you have noble blood in your body, but after thousands of years of dilution, you are no different from a mortal!"
Christina said this deliberately in a hoarse voice, and although she had accidentally exposed her appearance to Sinampe and Huge, she still wanted to hide herself in the shadows that others could not see—one of the few sources of security she had.
Theresa was silent, she knew she was telling the truth. The magic she can use, if she can kill a heavy knight, is a favor of God.
But Theresa didn't want to show weakness either: "Okay, even if you're strong, I can't help you with Schilla, but do you think you can escape the punishment of the Holy See? By virtue of this, I will be able to put you in the Inquisition!Your disguise is meaningless—there is nothing more ridiculous than a magician hiding his identity, do you think that the Holy See will leave you behind in the midst of a mere three hundred?!"
"Then let them check, I'll see if they can find me among the three hundred magicians in the continent. Christina smiled disdainfully, "And I'm sure there is no record of me in all the files of the Church and the Council of Magicians." ”
"Hand over the division, that black-eyed and black-haired stranger is quite conspicuous, I think you've already seen him. Theresa gritted her silver teeth, "I don't embarrass you. ”
"Is that guy named Sinampe? I'm sorry, because I can't get used to his ugly behavior of wagging his tail and begging for mercy from the crown prince of Caledonia, so I've already killed him. Christina chuckled deliberately and said, "He's dead, so you'd better go home." ”
"You're lying. Theresa's gaze sharpened for a moment, "I don't think you even knew that he had risked his life to save me. He is not the kind of person who would give up his principles for the sake of life and fame. ”
"So you like him, even if he's so stupid?!" Christina snorted, "wishful thinking fool." ”
"Don't go into vain words, if you are willing to go through diplomatic channels, I will also pay you a ransom worthy of the value of his life. Theresa shouted, "As long as you can give him to me alive, the price is negotiable." You know, I've got enough gold. ”
"Is it worth the effort you have to go to such lengths to save him as a mere wanderer of Seris? Christina said coldly.
"He is my faithful servant and steward, and since he has given his life to me, I must keep him safe as well!" said Theresa, trembling, "and if anything happens to him, I will cross the Channel and destroy all of Caledonia!"
"Sure enough, it's better to meet than to be famous, and it seems that our rumored Duchess of Auvergne is not so kind. Christina taunted Theresa, "And you're so big and full of lies! Hmph, that's why you've come all the way here?"
"You're ......!" Theresa clenched her fists in anger, but this time she didn't say anything.
She didn't know anything about the enemy in front of her, but the other party knew everything about her, which made her helpless.
Christina pulled her pistol out of her bosom and pointed it at her: "If you don't want to die, get out of here as much as you can - I think you should know this thing." ”
Theresa saw the object in Christina's hand, and cold sweat began to appear on her forehead: "How could it be in your hand?"
"Actually......" Christina pulled a long rifle from her bosom again, "I'm not uncommon to these things. ”
"Are you from Seris?" asked Shilmelia in surprise - although the style of this rifle was too different from a pistol, in her opinion, both weapons belonged to high-end products that could not be manufactured by the current Rite Sect country, so she asked.
"......" Christina looked quietly and didn't say a word.
"Could it be that you have a grudge against Mr. Si in Seris?"
At the same time, in the fortress below, a tall woman appeared beside Edward, with a bow and arrows, already aiming here.
Ten seconds later, she let go of the taut bowstring.
The arrow made a sound that burst through the air, like the tail of a rattlesnake, piercing a person's eardrum.
The bow and arrow didn't hit either Theresa or Sylmeria, and they were still flying higher into the sky. Although its momentum has waned, it still retains its uncomfortably lethal power - even at an altitude of more than 100 meters.
Theresa's face turned pale, and after a while, she finally seemed to be deflated, and gently patted her companion on the shoulder: "Enough, Shilmelia, there is no need to negotiate with these guys who have already dedicated their souls to the devil, let's go......"
"But we haven't seen Mr. Si yet......," Shirmel whispered weakly.
She also cared about Sinampei, and was not very afraid of the arrows - but not because she liked him, but because Sinampei had told her that she had a way to help her pay off her debts. Hillmelia, who is well versed in Sinampei's scientific talents, is convinced of this.
"They won't hurt the division. Theresa shook her head, "Tsukasa is a capable person, and he will only be courteous wherever he is. ”
What's more, she still believes in Sybil's prophecy, since the prophecy says that he is a great man who can "push the moon and extinguish the sun", then he will definitely not die before he becomes famous, just like when a man disguised himself as a woman and went into danger alone.
