"Maria, you let go of me. ”

By the time Anne came back to her senses from Ariel's words, she had already been carried by Maria and ran far away, while Ahri was holding the frightened and overwhelmed Moemo.

"You let go of me, Ariel, she ......"

"Your Highness, Ariel, she will definitely be fine. Although she was holding Anne in the posture of a princess, Maria did not seem to be struggling, "It is better not to trouble them than this." ”

"But, that's a godborn!" said Anne, "the aura on her body is not much different from that of her mother, and I am afraid that Ariel will ...... her."

"Your Highness, don't be willful!" Maria's tone suddenly became stern, "The fight between them, if we rush into it now, it will only cause trouble for Her Highness Ariel, have you forgotten what happened last time?"

What happened to the Orcs?

Anne, who was still struggling, fell silent all of a sudden, indeed, whether in terms of wisdom or strength, she was far inferior to Ariel. Even if he insisted on staying there, he would only be causing trouble for Ariel.

What if Ariel gets hurt to protect herself?

It's hateful, it's all to blame yourself, it's all blamed for not having any strength at all, just a burden.

"Your Highness Anne, don't do this?"

Ahri on the side saw that Annie's expression was a little gloomy, and hurriedly said: "Everyone will have their own role, you look like Meng Meng." ”

"What's wrong with me?"

"Mengmeng, she will fall even if she serves a plate. But won't everyone still like her?

It's like a mascot. ”

"Hey, they're His Royal Highness's exclusive maids!" Meng Meng pouted, "It's not a mascot!"

Is there a maid like you? Ira is more competent.

"I know, I'm just making an analogy. Ahri said, "So Lord Anne, you will definitely not be a burden or anything, everyone will have their own place." ”

“......”

But I didn't want to hide behind Ariel all the time. I also want to face danger with Ariel.

Myself......

"Sizzle......"

With a strange sound, the four of them also hurriedly stopped.

"Now, Maria. Anne looked around with some fear, but there was nothing but dense trees.

"Was there any sound just now? like that 'hiss' sound?"

“...... Not clear, Your Highness. Maria shook her head.

Was it an illusion? But the sound that flashed just now must have existed.

"Squeak squeak, squeak. ”

At this moment, the white feather on Ahri's head actually jumped in front of everyone. And started sniffing around.

Is this a fox?

"What brother, this ......" Ahri said in a bit of a panic, "but ...... here"

"What's wrong, Ahri?" asked Anne.

"My brother said that there seemed to be something terrible nearby. Ahri also looked around, "And, judging from the trajectory and breath on the ground, it should be a very large python." ”

Could it be the python that Eve said had bitten her mother?

Damn, why did this kind of unfortunate thing happen to me at this time?

"So, what are we going to do?" Anne looked around nervously, "Shall we run back?"

"No, you can't. Ahri pulled out the dagger hidden in his inner thigh, "I don't know where it is." Rushing to run will only ......"

"Hisss ......"

At this moment, a yellow python that was much bigger than the two of them together suddenly slipped in front of everyone, and its two golden eyes were staring at everyone, and it was constantly spitting out letters.

"Ahhhh

But not only Meng Meng, but even Ahri and Bai Yu's bodies trembled, and the short sword in Ahri's hand was almost not thrown out.

"You ......," Anne was about to ask. But randomness is relieved.

Isn't this huge python the nemesis of those small animals?

However, in his own line. It seems that only himself and Maria are real humans.

In addition, a cat lady and two big-tailed foxes, it is no wonder that they are afraid of being like this when they see snakes.

The python seemed to sense everyone's fear, and began to slowly move its body towards the group.

"Ahri ......"

"Hug, sorry Your Highness Anne. Ahri struggled to stand firm. But the pressure brought by natural predators made her tremble, "I, maybe ......"

Damn, wouldn't that be the only thing left on my side was myself and Maria?

And he also has to protect his three friends who have lost their will to fight from harm.

"Your Highness Anne. Ahri tried to make herself look less afraid: "You go first." I'm going to hold it off. ”

"But, but Ahri is already like this, how can you get out of the way?"

At this time, how can you leave your friends alone, no matter what, Anne will not allow herself to run away first.

"County Lord, although it is dangerous to you, it is better for me to stay. Maria said and pulled out her weapon, "You hurry back to the palace and ask for help, leave us alone." ”

"Maria ......"

"Let's go!" Maria suddenly shouted, "Let's leave it here, you are the county lord, you can't be in a little danger!"

“......”

I'm the county lord, so I should stay in a safe place and watch my friends take such a big risk for themselves one by one?

If so, I'd rather not have this title, blame myself, blame myself for being useless at all, and I need the protection of others, if I can be stronger......

For the first time, Anne hated herself for being so useless, but in the current situation, she couldn't hesitate at all.

What he can do now is to find support before Maria's life is in danger, and this is the only thing he can do now.

Anne was ruthless and ran out from the other side.

If you can survive this time, you will have to become stronger no matter what.

"Jason. ”

There had been a question that had been bothering Chris for a long time, but today he finally decided to ask.

"I've always had a question to know. ”

"Say it. ”

After retrieving some of his memories, Jason's temperament changed completely, and that majestic aura made Chris feel a little unaccustomed.

"For so long, I didn't know when Ariel's birthday was. ”

"Birthday? Do you want to celebrate His Highness the Erel?" Jason was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Your Highness Ariel has spent more than four hundred years, and usually we celebrate birthdays, only when we are a whole number of years old. ”

Is this a show off of eating fruits?

"That ......"

"If I'm not mistaken, there are 35 days left, and it's not a whole number, but it's not impossible to celebrate. ”

"Alright, I'll go get ready......" Chris looked a little anxious, not feeling like he was celebrating someone else's birthday.

"But are there any customary requirements?"

"This ......"

Jason was just about to answer, when suddenly an ominous throbbing in his heart suddenly startled him.

Is this feeling Ariel her......

"I'm sorry. Jason didn't even care that he was in the house, when a pair of wings suddenly appeared behind him, and he broke through the roof and flew out under Chris's surprised gaze.

(These chapters have been a bit dull lately, well, I'm doing some preparation for the later plot, that's it.) (To be continued......)
