Why is this so?

This strange and wonderful feeling?

Theresia is not an innocent girl who doesn't understand anything, it's not that she can't guess what this strange and strange feeling is surging in her body at the moment.

However, the game cannot be lost.

Anyway, just be patient.

And it seems to be very comfortable.

Xia Ming's palm gently pressed against the edge of the girl's wound.

The cold that froze both body and soul was slowly sucked out by him.

He watched as the girl's face gradually regained its blood color, her red lips regained their vitality and bright red, but his thoughts drifted more to her emerald eyes.

The same color of his pupils as the humanoid phantom he had seen before he fell unconscious.

Even now, when I think about it carefully, although the appearance of that figure is a little blurry in my mind, its height and size seem to be the same as the girl in front of me...... Pretty much the same.

The girl's cheeks had already regained their rosiness due to the evil energy being sucked away, and under the caress of Xia Ming's warm palm, they quickly turned crimson at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"You're blushing."

"I didn't ...... Yes. The girl squeezed her voice and made a dry and hoarse voice, and turned her face away.

She was ashamed and strange to herself like this.

Why should I be shy about this, why am I afraid to meet his gaze?

It's just a serious treatment of the injury, why should I be afraid?

She bit her lip and turned her head back, looking at Xia Ming angrily, imagining him as a tiger, a ferocious snow monster, and even the abominable evil dragon and ice king.

When I think about it, I feel that there is nothing to be afraid of, I just need to ...... Just keep holding back the voice.

Xia Ming stretched out his finger and poked her cheek again, and said with a smile:

"I still don't admit it, it's not only red, but also hot."

"That's ...... Yes! I'm so angry with you, I'm so angry! The girl said forcefully, her voice mixed with a flash of whispering.

"Strange?" Xia Ming tilted his head in surprise, "I'm obviously working hard to help you treat your injuries, why are you angry?" ”

"Is it that I'm not treating well enough, or if you're not feeling well, tell me, Theresia, I'll rub it for you."

"Theresia?"

Xia Ming softly called her name in her ear.

"Theresia?"

Theresia shut up, turned her face away, and stopped talking.

She thought that as long as she ignored him, he would be bored and give up after a while.

They were now playing a game to make her open her mouth to speak, and Xia Ming wanted her to open her mouth and make a sound of shame.

She closed her mouth and enjoyed it quietly, anyway...... She's always been good at patience anyway.

This is the case when everyone in the embers preached.

I was hard-fed with a lot of useless knowledge, and I was forced to watch the battle videos of the Valkyrie-sama over and over again.

When he was instructed to learn from his body posture to his posture and expression, he imitated the Valkyrie of his ancestors.

Obviously, I'm Theresia, not the first Valkyrie!

It is said that this will get closer to the will and mentality of the Valkyrie, and can increase the probability of success in drawing the sword, but no matter how you think about it, I think this method is very unreliable!

But many years have passed, and the red flame left by the Valkyrie is about to be extinguished, and for many years, no one has succeeded in pulling out the Red Flame Greatsword, which symbolizes the Valkyrie's willpower and name, from the ice.

The elder brother also failed.

She was the only one left.

She is the only one who has also inherited the blood of the Valkyrie, and even the red hair and the emerald bright eyes are exactly the same as her.

She is everyone's last hope, and she must draw her sword.

And to increase the chances of success in drawing the sword.

She must learn to imitate the posture and posture of the Valkyrie, her fighting style, her character, her philosophy, and she must become a copy of the Valkyrie-sama.

She also had to suppress her strength, and she couldn't burst out of third-order and above spiritual energy, even if her strength had already reached the peak of the fourth-order, she was one step away from crossing into the fifth-order.

Because once the spiritual energy strength reaches the third order, it has the qualification for the second awakening.

In countless attempts to draw the sword over the years, the Ember Organization believes that in order to successfully pull out the Red Flame Greatsword, it must not only have a will and personality similar to that of the previous Valkyrie, but also be like a blank pedestal that can perfectly carry the power of the Red Flame Sword and the flames of the Valkyrie.

In other words, a person who wants to draw a sword and obtain the power of the Valkyrie cannot complete the second awakening himself.

It's like there's no room for two different souls in the same body.

Theresia is going to inherit the power of the Valkyrie and become the second generation of Valkyrie, once she awakens her own power, won't she conflict with the power of the Valkyrie in the Red Flame Greatsword?

So how can she inherit it?

Many times, Theresia also wants to help, to save the innocent people who have been hurt by the Ice King and the evil dragon.

But she can often only watch from afar, endure it, and even if she participates in it, she only does some trivial work, and even if she sees her brother injured, she can't do anything.

Because she can only maintain the weak psionic ability of the second order.

Endure.

Endure.

In order to inherit the power of the Valkyrie, you must learn to be patient.

Until a few days ago, there was a treacherous fog in the town.

Theresia is finally allowed to come with her brother as a firefighter to search for survivors in the fog.

Over the years, the people of the Northland have become very familiar with such a sudden and unprovoked treacherous fog.

The Ember Formation is also very experienced in dealing with such incidents.

They are a group of followers who once gathered under the command of the Valkyrie and uphold her faith and will, and after the death of the Valkyrie, they still faithfully carry out her wish to save the Northland, using the flames she left behind to fight against the Ice King and the evil dragon, and save the innocent people of the Northland.

This is the first time that Theresia has gone on a mission, and she argues with reason, saying that even if she learns and imitates more about the personality and attitude of the previous Valkyrie, if she does not take steps like the Valkyrie and use her own power to personally participate in the great cause of saving the people of the Northland against the Ice King and the evil dragon.

So how can she be qualified to pull out the Red Flame Greatsword and inherit her name and power?

Reluctantly convinced, the group sends her brother to accompany her in the search for survivors in the mist.

It was usually a fairly easy and easy task, with the Red Flame Lamp in hand, and the mist could not obscure their vision and freeze their bodies.

The only monsters that appeared in the dense fog would only be those who were transformed from the corpses of innocent people desecrated by the power of the Ice King, which was terrifying for ordinary people, but for psionics, especially Tried, who had fourth-order power, it was simply not a problem.

All they had to do was search for the scattered survivors as they made their way to the town's Red Flame Sanctuary and brought the innocent people out of the fog.

But who would have thought that a simple task would be in such a terrible situation?

Who would have thought that in such a weird and terrifying environment, she would meet such a handsome and interesting person as Xia Ming, who has infinite kindness to her?

The treatment is over.

The flush on Theresia's face faded.

Xia Ming really didn't do anything excessive.

Except that at the beginning, because his body was too cold, he was ...... by his warmth

Don't mention it, don't mention it, anyway, in this game, she won again.

Not only did she not make a sound until the end of the treatment, revealing her flaws, but she was right again, how could a good person like Xia Ming behave badly towards her?

It's just that...... What's going on with a faint feeling of loss in my heart?

This little loss was quickly washed away by the joy of winning the game, and Theresia felt her body rejuvenated.

Even seeing Xia Ming's cheeks, which looked a little pale and cold in order to treat her, she took the initiative to reach out and rub them.

Hmph, you just said nonsense that I have hot cheeks.

Look at you rubbing your face hot now!

Of course, no thanks, just as a thank you gift for my treatment.

The girl who won the game was very happy, rubbing Xia Ming's dog head, her head was slightly raised, swinging gently, and humming an unknown song quietly.

Her beautiful long hair fluttered slightly with the swing of her head, in harmony with her singing, she sat half-on the edge of the bed with her buttocks on one leg and the other leg hanging out of the bed, and her little feet swayed to the rhythm of the song, white like a snow lotus.

"You seem to ...... Happy? Xia Ming suddenly asked.

"Hey, hey, because I won. I know Xia Ming, you are a little unconvinced if you lose, but victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, by the way, otherwise I won't tell my brother about your health, and continue to let him cook and wash dishes for us every day? So you should be able to have a little fun and laugh, right? ”

Xia Ming teased: "Your brother is really lucky to have such a sister as you." ”

Theresia said without remorse: "Isn't my brother just for pitting?" And that guy is always so hard, so desperate, and before you know it, he becomes serious and calm, and he is not as interesting as before......"

Her eyes were full of memories, slowly becoming gentle and pitying.

"My brother's man...... He won't be idle if he doesn't find something to do. He is the kind of character that makes him happy to sacrifice for others. Maybe it's because he's just like me, full of enthusiasm and enthusiasm to pull out the Red Flame Sword to inherit the power of the Valkyrie, but then he suddenly felt a kind of gloom and collapse after the failure to draw the sword, and he was actually a lively person like me. ”

"I'm just making him feel the joy of life in this way, you see, before the two of us joined forces to play tricks on him, he didn't respond in his own way, although you were the one who suffered. You don't know how clear the smile in my brother's eyes was after forcibly feeding you that steak bigger than your face that day, and how happy I was to see it. ”

Theresia said as she looked out the window at the thick fog.

"I, I just don't want to see the day when he really sacrifices his life for anyone, drowning in a silent blizzard, and dying quietly."

"So Theresia, is that why you don't want to leave here?" Xia Ming suddenly asked.

Theresia looked at him in surprise.

"Don't want to leave? How can it be! Who wants to be trapped in this hellish place like a caged bird! Xia Ming, why do you have such thoughts? ”

Xia Ming didn't answer, just looked at her beautiful emerald eyes silently and silently.

Theresia was a little inexplicable and a little flustered and shy by him.

"If you don't believe it, forget it, I'll go downstairs and find my brother to make him something to eat."

She got up in a panic and wanted to leave, but Xia Ming suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed her tightly again, preventing her from leaving.

"Theresia, do you know what I found when I tried it alone before?" Xia Ming looked at her calmly.

Facing Xia Ming's eyes, Theresia suddenly felt a little flustered for some reason, and she felt a dazed and uneasy feeling in her heart, and she herself didn't know where such emotions came from.

She didn't even dare to look into Xia Ming's eyes.

The first time was because of the shyness of the girl, and this time it ......

"You...... What exactly are you trying to say? ”

Her voice dropped unconsciously, and there was a weakness in her tone that she didn't even notice.

"Three days ago, an idea popped into my mind, and I hurried to the edge of the fog to conduct an experiment." Xia Ming said, "The experiment failed, and I didn't succeed in destroying the cage and getting outside, but before I fell into a coma from mental exhaustion, I saw a shadow. ”

For some reason, Theresia felt a faint fear of hearing what she heard next, and her lips trembled as she spoke.

"What...... What shadow? ”

"A humanoid phantom with wings and a tail."

Xia Ming paused, did not continue to describe, but raised his eyes and stared at her seriously:

"What do you think it is?"

"Evil dragons?"

Theresia was dazed for a moment before she came up with an answer.

"I've heard that evil dragons have changed into human forms, and that if they say that they are evil dragons, they are just monsters that simulate their own appearance into the form of evil dragons in many legends. So...... It's the evil dragon under the command of the Ice King who traps us here? ”

She looked up excitedly, seeking approval.

Xia Ming didn't shake his head, nor did he nod, just looked at her calmly and said:

"What if I told you that the humanoid phantom not only has the same height and size as you, but even has a pair of jade-colored eyes like you?"

"Theresia, can you tell me what's going on?"

The same height and body type as yourself, and the exact same emerald eyes?

Theresia froze, as if in a great shock, and was speechless for a moment.

"Theresia, is that you?" Xia Ming asked again, his expression still so calm and calm.
