Chapter 35: He still loves you

"Who, uh, you, you go and call Fira back, tell her that she doesn't need to guard the stars and moon first, just let her come back alone, and when Ernica and the people from the Wizards Guild arrive, we will discuss how to defend against the enemy." Although Bloodhoof Owen was very unhappy with Enshir III's rescue on the surface, he still did not refuse the other party's assistance, after all, Bloodhoof Owen himself knew in his heart that if this continued, the losses of the Ostic Empire would only get bigger and bigger, and he had no room to refuse.

"Damn, if only these demons had gone to fight Dolores first, then the one who owes the favor is the old fellow of Enchil." Bloodhoof Owen cursed inwardly.

When Lambert handed over the gold to Nicole the next day, Nicole was not suspicious, but kept praising Lambert and saying, "That's good! Lambert! Keep it up, and we'll be rich soon! ”

Nicole patted Lambert on the shoulder and praised him, which made Lambert embarrassed, so he had to quickly change the subject and say something else.

"Sister Nicole, big brother, there are demons in the heron settlement, they are slaughtering civilians, let's hurry over." Blue suddenly rushed in and said to Lambert and Nicole.

"Heron District? It seems that the place where I gave Leah that guy yesterday, her home seems to be in the heron area, it can't be such a coincidence..."A bad thought is gradually burning in Lambert's heart, and Lambert's face suddenly became very bad, although he and Leah only have a one-sided relationship, but for that elf girl, Lambert still has a good impression, and Leah herself is already very unlucky, he saved her from the black shop of lavender, and today he encountered this kind of thing again.

Nicole also noticed Lambert's somewhat pale face, so she hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" Uncomfortable? If you're not feeling well, we'll just go, and you can stay here and rest. ”

"No, I must go, let's go quickly!" Lambert looked solemn and said to Nicole and Blue.

Lambert didn't say anything along the way, just was engrossed in the road, and such a strange behavior still made Nicole feel very concerned.

"When you get there, you'll know what this guy is worried about, as long as it's not another girl." Nicole thought to herself.

Soon, the three of them rushed to the heron area, Lambert remembered that when he sent Ria yesterday, it was still a quiet and simple scene, but now what appeared in front of his eyes was a ruined wall, many houses were still burning with raging flames, and on both sides of the road there were civilians running out from the inside to flee for their lives, and the cries and sounds for help were heard one after another.

With the help of his memory, Lambert bypassed the wolf demons in front of him and ran in the direction of Leah's house.

"Lambert? Where are you going? Leah saw Lambert running around a few monsters in the direction of the inside of the heron area, and seeing that Lambert didn't respond to herself, she had to follow and help Lambert kill a few of the surrounding mobs so that he could run more unimpeded.

When Lambert came to the door of Leah's house, his worst fear still happened, at this time, the door of Leah's house had been smashed, and there was a loud smashing sound from inside.

Seeing this, Lambert didn't care about anything, and rushed straight in, shouting Leah's name loudly as he ran.

Liya's home has been smashed a little unsightly, almost none of the original furniture is now intact, and lying in the center of the living room is the corpse of a middle-aged man with glasses, the middle-aged man's chest has a huge blood hole, the blood is still bubbling outward, but the man's eyes have lost their vitality.

"Ahh Don't come here! ”

Lambert heard shouts coming from the back room, and he immediately realized that the owner of the voice was none other than Leah.

"Great, she's still alive!" Lambert didn't have time to think and sped away in the direction where the voice came from. When Lambert arrived, Leah was huddled in the corner of her room, in front of her was a wolf demon who looked so brutal and eager to kill her.

"Brute! Go to hell! Lambert pulled out his demonic sword, and before the wolf demon could react, he cut off the wolf demon's head with a single sword, and the bloody scene made Leah scream again and again.

Lambert walked up to Leah, stroked her head and comforted her, saying, "It's okay, I'm here to save you, I'm Lambert." ”

"Woo, Brother Lambert, you're here to save me again, woo..." Leah threw herself into Lambert's arms, and her pitiful appearance made Lambert feel distressed.

"It's okay, it's okay, isn't it just a wolf demon, something I can solve with a sword." Lambert said with a smile.

And Nicole, who came later, happened to see the scene in front of her, and her expression instantly became extremely complicated, but she didn't bother the two, but chose to leave silently. When Nicole returns to fight on the streets again, Blue notices her expression.

"Sister Nicole, what's wrong with you? Why do you look so unhappy? Blue asked with concern.

"I'm fine, hurry up and kill the demon and earn more gold." Nicole forced a smile and said to Blue.

So innocent that some cute Blue naturally couldn't see the girl's thoughts, thinking that Nicole was really not unhappy, so she turned around and continued to hunt demons.

At this time, the sad look on Nicole's face could no longer be suppressed, she immersed all the unhappiness in her heart into her own magic, and Nicole, who would have taken care of the safety of the people around her, became ignorant at this time, and the large-scale destruction magic began to be used non-stop, from the people around her, Nicole's efficiency in killing demons is indeed high, just like watching fireworks. But for Nicole personally, this was the last thing she wanted to do, because she didn't want people to be hurt twice because of her own reasons after experiencing the demon's attack.

"That uncle at the door, it's yours...?"

"It's my father, who has been killed by the wolf demon to protect me." Leah's tears could no longer be suppressed and began to cry bitterly, and Lambert had nothing else to do but comfort her.

"Your father, in fact, still loves you very much, and at the last moment of his life, he was able to stand up and protect you, which is enough to see that you are the most important part of his life." Lambert whispered to Leah.
