Chapter 27: Sniping
"So...... What kind of dream is it?"
Remembering Leah's frightened way of waking up in the morning, the princess had a sense of foreboding.
"Well...... It was my dream of being killed. β
A certain Lori said in a casual tone, as if she was just dreaming of something delicious at the market.
"What...... I see...... Wait!?You said you were killed!?"
The relaxed tone even infected the princess, making her think for a moment that what Leah dreamed of was just trivial things. But soon, she reflected because ...... This incident is not "small" at all.
So, pulling up the little Lori, the princess hurriedly found Kalian.
"Dreams?...... So Leah's screaming in the morning was due to a nightmare. β
When Karen heard the princess's statement, she couldn't help but sigh.
The screams this morning frightened the Earl, and she almost came to the door with her sword, and after hearing the guards say that the princess and Leah were all safe, she returned to her study, considering that it would not be good to enter the princess's room rashly.
Although she vaguely learned the inside story from the mouths of the soldiers and knights, she still felt a little crying and laughing when she confirmed this fact from the mouths of the people concerned.
To be honest, hearing Leah crying because of nightmares, and then thinking about her usual little adult-like style, Karen felt for a moment that this was the expression that Lori should have.
"If it's just a dream, it's fine, but Leah's dream is a prophetic dream. β
Isabella sighed. If it's just a nightmare, she won't care. But the problem is that little Lori's dream is not ordinary. At the very least, any dreams should be taken seriously during the bleeding debuff.
"Prophetic dreams?"
"To put it simply, it's a dream that can predict the future. β
Leah explained.
"Well...... Even if you say so...... Leah, have you ever had prophetic dreams before?".
Kalian's expression hardened.
"Yes, huh...... Though...... Only once. β
Even now, Leah is still a little unbelievable about her prophetic abilities.
"It's a very similar thing. What is the outcome of the prophecy?"
"It's the Sky Shattering incident some time ago, as early as Ed Nihua's time, I saw in my dream that it was about to happen. β
"Oops!? that's pretty powerful...... No...... It should be said that it can definitely affect the prophecy of the entire continent!"
Even if it's Karen. At this moment, he also raised his voice an octave in surprise.
"Well, but for the sake of the implications, I didn't choose to announce this prophecy. β
"You're right, if such a prophecy is announced across the continent. It could push Leah or even the entire Randall out of the continent's focus. This is not necessarily a good thing. β
"So, I've made it a secret to Professor Broad. So far, only Ed Nihua and Elven Forest know about it. β
Isabella agrees with Kalian's idea.
"Anyway, I already know that my dear sister is getting better and better. Why don't you help me prophesy Fenrir's march next time, I'll be grateful. β
"Uh......"
Kalian's joking words made little Lori Yali Yama big, after all, Karen didn't know that the prophetic dream was not only not under her control, but also needed to bleed the debuff.
"Well...... In a word. Let's talk about this dream first. It seems like a lot of trouble. β
Thankfully. Karen quickly changed the subject and talked about the dream this time.
So, Leah carefully recounted her dreams, especially the part of the assassination in the bazaar.
Little Lori's brow furrowed a little with each word, and she became more and more convinced that Leah's ability to foresee dreams was absolutely real, because the situation in the dream was exactly the same as she had thought - a high-level sniper from a long range.
If you want to say that there is a difference there......
"Shatter my sword, and still pierce you?"
That's the power of the sniper, which makes Karen a little unbelievable.
"Although I use a bayonet, the arrow is not a difficult weapon to resist like an axe or a machete. Leah, do you know that the enemy who can smash my sword with an arrow is at least level eight.
As far as I know, there has never been such a powerful archer on the continent of Evette. Are you sure you didn't remember it wrong?
I mean, usually our memories of dreams are blurry, don't they. β
"Normally that's true, but prophetic dreams are a little different, at least, I can remember even the tiniest details. β
Leah shook her head, unless the dream itself was hazy, otherwise she wouldn't miss something.
"That's right...... That's a bit of a hassle......"
Karene fell silent.
If Leah is right, then the enemy's strength is indeed a headache.
"Wait, on this point, I think it's better to think that the enemy has an eighth-level strength, so it would be better to think about a short increase in strength for a short period of time by some means of TongguΓ². β
Isabella said.
"I agree with the Princess's idea. In fact, if the enemy ...... Let's assume that it is the Holy Church of Salman...... If there really is an eighth-level powerhouse, I'm afraid that we would have already fought a decisive battle from the front. Therefore, it is more appropriate to consider what forbidden methods are used to forcibly improve the ability.
But the question is - how do you intercept such a blow?"
Karene pointed out the crux of the matter, just like the dream revealed, if it was really a blow from an eighth-level powerhouse, there was nothing Karen could do with it alone.
And the other knights, as well as Lori and Isabella, are not strong enough to survive that terrifying attack.
"How about asking Sharuzod for help?"
Leah asked.
"Speaking of fighting, I think Haili Fanye in Shicheng will not be much stronger than me. Not to mention that the enemy will know that you will appear in the bazaar, and it is clear that there is a hidden thread in the mage city that we don't know about.
The only result of suing SΓΉ Sharuzod was to get them to abandon the assassination. But honestly, what I'd rather be able to do them all at once in the bazaar. β
Karin shook her head, it is true that the assassination can be avoided by letting the enemy abandon the plan, but the question is what about next time? So the countess felt that it was better to take advantage of this opportunity...... That's right, it's the chance - Lori's foresight provides the perfect opportunity to eradicate the assassin.
You must know that the biggest feature of assassination is that it cannot be known in advance, and the assassination that is learned of is much less threatening in any way. At least, the current Leah and the others have enough time to prepare.
"In that case, I have a good plan......
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, Leah looked up and said. (To be continued......)
ps: I know that after two weeks, the code word will definitely be Kavin...... orz......~~~
