The world is still in the middle of feudal society, and usually the common people naturally do not talk about amateur cultural life. Generally speaking, apart from drinking in taverns and listening to the stories and poems sung by the bards, all that was left was wife and child beating, at least in the land of Xifengyi, where Edward grew up. So he didn't think about the fact that there was such a thing as a 'circus' in this world.

Of course, even if there is, in fact, he doesn't have much interest, circus performances are just practice makes perfect, he was tired of watching it when he was ten years old in his last life, who let him live in a world of information? But now, he is really aroused again-

Valentine dating, in addition to shopping and tired dogs, the most common way is to watch movies, of course, there are no movies in this world, but it is also a good choice to use circus instead.

Well, it's not a good one - at least from the moment he entered the game, Edward felt like he had made a terrible choice.

The most important thing is that the circus of this era has quite a lot of completely different points from what he remembers-for example, this thing is not sold for a show, as long as you pay a silver coin, the audience can enter and watch it, but it is not clear, if you like it, even if you watch it for a day, no one will stop it. The layout of the whole tent was similar, but it was more rudimentary and convenient, and the wooden shelves-like seats were slightly shaky so that no one sat on the top floor.

Also, there's really nothing fancy.

In a clearing in the center, a rider is riding a horse. It led a lion and a pack of wolves to jump in the ring of fire, and above its head, several people were swinging in the air. The people who kept playing with the ball slowly rotated around the field, and a little in the middle, a person performed throwing knives, and although the fact that a group of people did not interfere with each other was indeed a highlight, it was still not interesting.

No clowns, no horse teams, no parrots. Pigeons, stacked arhats...... On top of that, even one is used to make the audience laugh. The clown, the most important component of the circus, is performed by no one. ，

Can this kind of thing really be called a circus? Street juggling or a fitting name. And those who can watch happily and seriously, that is, those half-grown children who have no knowledge and ......

Claudia?

"Interesting?" asked Edward.

At this moment, the female knight's expression was more than serious. It's all about it. Her eyes wandered over those people, and she even showed a subtle smile,

"It's funny. It's also exciting. ”

After a pause, she replied, but did not look away: "But it's a little strange, why don't these people become knights? He can take out a camp of sentinels before the enemy appears, as well as those who are good at training beasts. Especially if the people who train the horses can be used in the barracks, so that the horses can also learn the way of jumping, then they can avoid the traps on the ground when they charge, as for those ......"

Is this a professional question?

"Or maybe it's because the death rate of being a knight is too high?"

"Coward. ”

"It's not just cowardice, after all, once they die, they lose a lot of things, they don't have a devout faith, they can't be kept by the gods, and living a little longer is the greatest temptation for anyone. ”

Edward tugged at the corners of his mouth and said softly:

"In addition, being a soldier is too free, although you may think that as a knight you can pursue glory, but for a knight, the order is half of a qiē, and etiquette and the mentality of climbing up almost occupy the other half, even if you are lucky not to die, you will be pushed to the battlefield again and again, pushed to the edge of death, and kill, but in the end you can't refuse the order, even if you go up from the ten-division to the hundred-man and the thousand-year-old, there will still be someone who restrains you with all their strength. And there is no need to worry about those things when performing here, as long as they save a sum of money, they can enjoy their old age in peace, and before that they have more than ten decades of life to enjoy, and they don't need to obey any orders. ”

The knightess fell silent.

Or, what the conversation had brought to her mind, she remained silent for the rest of the day, until she and Edward left the circus tent and crossed a side street, and then the silence was broken by the Psychmancer: "Why, Claudia, have you ever thought about going back? If you want to be a general, I can arrange it for you now." ”

"No, my duty is to be your guardian. The answer was firm, but not fast.

"Hypothetical, just hypothetical, if one day, I'm gone......"

"I'll die before you, and if not, then I'll go with you. ”

Edward shook his head slightly, he knew that this was not the truth, and of course Claudia was not lying, but the contract gave her this idea: "Anyway, if I die, and I ask you to continue living before I die, then what are you going to do?"

"Avenge your master. Then find a way to resurrect you. ”

"What if I die with my opponent?"

"Find a way to resurrect you. ”

"You should know exactly where I'm now, if I die, do you think I still have a chance to be resurrected?" Edward sighed - although it was to judge the other party's true intentions, it was still a terrible feeling, and reminded him of the crisis he was currently facing.

“...... I do not know. After a little more silence, Claudia's voice was full of doubt: "Master, please give orders, what do you think I should do?"

"Well, I don't know, but actually, at that point, you should know what you can do at once, because at that time, the contract between us will be completely invalid. And you, too, are free. Edward turned, "At that time, you might breathe a sigh of relief. Then he gritted his teeth and cursed me for why I didn't die sooner. Um, or, like this?"

He reached out and tapped the female knight's forehead.

The palm of the hand was immediately retracted, but on the original contact surface, a black light had appeared, stretching in the air like a cotton thread. Flickering, if you look closely, you can see it. Those shining on it were countless tiny runes.

The light reflected in her gaze, and the knight's face showed an extreme horror, and she reached out to grasp the palm and the thread that were close at hand. However, there is always a blank catch!

Edward was also looking at the thin one. Black silk thread, but in his eyes, it was not just a subtle line, but a thousand threads. It is the brilliance, strength, thickness, and light and darkness that permeates the bodies of two people, and the souls. It connects Claudia's whole body, as well as Edward's left hand. The silver thumbwheel.

His brow furrowed, and he hesitated for a long time before finally reaching out and twisting it.

The movements of the index finger and middle finger were gentle, but the moment the two fingers met, a series of incomparably huge trembling sounds suddenly sounded in the surrounding space!

And with this sound, a circle of storms burst out of the space where the two of them were still standing!

The stone bricks on the ground cracked, and the fine cobweb-like texture spread outward from where the two had stood, and the shrill sound of Kaka continued in a tremble before disappearing into the silence around them...... Roads, houses, neighborhoods, and even the creatures of the entire city, whether people and animals, snakes, insects, birds, all subconsciously turned their eyes in the direction of the center at this moment, and panic occupied all their minds, making them sluggish, as if this space called Romandy had fallen into a stagnation at this moment!

The only thing moving within this silence is a sword.

The greatsword, which was nearly six feet long and one foot wide, condensed from the deep darkness...... Formed in the left palm of the female knight's outstretched back. The five fingers of that hand were brought together, and the greatsword disappeared again.

She stepped back.

This was not to leave, but to create enough space for her attack, as her body moved, the scarlet afterglow bent, but not a change in trajectory, but the air in the space, which had been distorted by the majestic force!

In fact, this blow was nothing more than an ordinary slash, but even Edward would have been surprised-even though he had already prepared for it in his heart, he did not expect the change to come so violently! After all, although the shackles of the contract were lifted by him, the mixing of memories should still take some time, but Claudia had already acted in an instant! The sword stabbed out, giving Edward almost zero time to react, and he couldn't even retreat, because before he could tense his muscles, the giant sword with the spatial gap on the sword's body would cut through his chest from left to right!

Of course, this didn't hurt the Psychic Warlock, the ability came into contact with the rules of time, and any degree he wanted to see was nothing more than silence in his eyes.

However, with a sigh in his heart, Edward did not do that.

His mind turned, and a force field-shaped shield with a five-foot square radius and a brilliant silver luster appeared in front of the psychic warlock. After accommodating, a slender and bright pale red luster appeared in the space, colliding with the shield!

The hot flame breath spread out in all directions like ripples around her body, and the moisture in the air was instantly steamed away, and even as if even the air was steaming up, becoming a terrifying flame of dense fog swept around her, and then the whirring sound followed on the ground, and countless bright flames suddenly grew from the ground like plants, and in the blink of an eye, they covered a radius of nearly 100 feet, so that all the things that could be burned, wooden pillars, window lattices, and garbage all burned violently in that sound!

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding area was already swept by this storm of flames, and all the qiē seemed to be rising!

Except for people...... All human beings, in this moment, were thrown into the silver luster, and the unshakable torrent of time sheltered them, dodging the wind of that expanding flame!,

This was not the outcome Claudia wanted.

So, the greatsword swung with her body, drawing a fiery red mark on the silver shield. Then, one of her hands grabbed at the figure!

Her right hand was no longer the slender form it was, and patches of red scales spread out. The huge hook claw on the fingertip slashed through the air like a short blade with the cold light of metal, and finally slammed straight into the silver shield, with a muffled bang! The low sound wave was like a blade visible to the naked eye, disrupting and smashing the surrounding space, and the silver shield also bent inward!

The divine power is so pure and strong. The mere force of impact could not threaten its existence at all, but the tremendous force would not disappear because of it, and it would continue to move forward. Push Edward's body and the shield of divine power backwards!

Edward was flying backwards.

The flaming flames flew behind him, and the giant sword and giant claws with the flames of the red dragon plated the surroundings with a layer of bright light and shadow, making them as fragile as sand sculptures. Reduced to nothingness at the batter of the waves. The rock-made houses crumbled into a cloud of rubble, but the psychic warlock didn't slow down by this slight obstacle, but got faster and faster!

Because the giant sword and dragon claws hit him one by one, there is no feature at all, but it is as fast as lightning, which is impossible to avoid, and the power of each blow is as fierce as thunder!

Rumble!

Every thunderclap. The silver shield would have recessed inward, and when the thunder broke out for the twelfth time. The silver shield seemed to be overwhelmed at last, and it exploded into a rainbow of seven colors in the sky as if it were silent! Claudia let out a clear roar, and the giant sword swung, and more than ten flames rose from behind her, and the spreading sea of fire rose up, and in an instant they had condensed like snakes!

The fiery serpent scorched through the ruins, scorching the rocks with intense heat, turning them into a semi-dissolved fluid, and then absorbed into the fiery serpent's interior, charging forward!

However, they eventually dissipated.

The pitch-black robe moved slightly, and with a pull of one arm from the depths of the middle, as if casually, the more than ten fire snakes were already violently pressed and tightened in the air, and finally all rushed to his palm, converging into a scorching energy, and the pale five fingers then closed, tearing this large mass of eye protection to pieces! Then he raised his head and looked into the eyes of the female knight.

"Are you done?" he asked, "have you recovered your ability to think?"

The female knight was also glaring at him.

She was already standing in front of him, the greatsword in her hand pointing forward, the scorching blade almost touching his throat!

The surrounding qiē became quiet, like a pool of waveless stagnant water, the inner and outer worlds seemed to be separated by an invisible wall, and the whole world was already only him and her.

Claudia's eyes widened, but those red eyes shimmered, anger, loss, uneasiness, and countless complex feelings were contained in them...... Tears slid down the corners of her eyes, across her bloodless, pale face, and then dissipated in the heat, her cherry lips chapped as if they were trembling slightly, like petals withering in the wind...... But he still gritted his teeth and said word by word:

"You take advantage of me...... What did you do to me while I was being accused......!

"You know exactly what you've done, and even if I do repeat it again, it will only make you more excited. Edward's gaze was indifferent, as if the great sword that was close at hand and ignited with the flame element did not exist at all: "And you should know that your strength can't kill me." I don't need you to kill me, and after a while, I might die. ”

This answer made the female knight's body tremble slightly.

She clenched the hilt of the sword in her hand, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't swing it.

"It seems that you are still not awake. The Psychic Warlock shook his head slightly, "Think about it, and you will understand that your conjecture is nothing more than nonsense." I did this only because this kind of contract didn't mean anything to the gods, especially the goddess of magic, and it was better for me to let you go before you threatened me. ”

"You, you ......"

The knight opened her mouth, but she didn't seem to know what she was supposed to say.

If it weren't for this person, she might be just a plaything in a noble family now, a tool used to produce offspring, and there was no possibility to untie the shackles, not to mention, he really didn't do anything too much,

yes, isn't that what it is?

Before that, did he have any reason to help himself? he had only bought a slave at the cost, and what reason was there to think about this slave, and what he had done was not the best, but it was also very good, he seemed to have asked for help when he did not have the strength to break the soul contract, and now, after hesitation, he chose to free himself,

This qiē, as once the soul was connected

He didn't deceive in any way, this qiē was true, he even helped himself control the bloodline, helped himself get a breakthrough in strength, and what about himself, what reason did he have to treat him like this?

"I've done a lot for him too, and I've helped him train his troops,"

That's just a debt of not indebtedness, right?

Somewhere in my heart, there seemed to be such a voice chuckling softly.

No, no, no!

"How can you be sure that what he shows you is true?" (To be continued......
