Chapter 36: On War and Strategy
In the wake of such an assassination, Chris has been investigating the identity of the assassin.
Unfortunately, nothing has been found other than knowing that these are two foxes and that they are from the orcs.
Also, there weren't any guys with ears in the defensive line.
The only explanation is that these guys with fox ears are disguised.
However, while Chris was thinking about the assassin's affairs, Ariel was lying on the hospital bed and enjoying the top-notch treatment that the two maids fed her.
"Ariel, is the tea still hot?" Annie, dressed as a maid, was holding a teapot and a teacup, while Meng Meng was holding a snack plate on the side.
"Well, it's okay. ”
Instead of rushing over and hugging her when she saw herself, Anne now began to take a different route.
Can it be understood as the process of domestication from S to M?
But Ariel is a little unaccustomed.
"Ariel, does the wound still hurt, do you want me to rub it for you?"
If you rub it, it will only hurt more.
"If you rub it, you don't need it. Ariel sat up and looked at Anne carefully: "Anne, you have become so strange today, and you have put on a sister shake suit." ”
"The Lun family just wants to take care of Ariel. Anne said as she leaned into Ariel's arms like a little woman.
It feels so incongruous.
Sure enough, it's still free.
"That, uh, Annie. Quietly dodging Anne's hug, Ariel said, "Sure enough, you're still better than before, but now, I can't stand it." ”
"Hey? So Ariel is really Tsundere's M? I didn't believe it at first. ”
"You are M, your whole family is M......"
However, it seems that this is really the case.
―――――――――――――――――― Cutting ―――――――――――――――――――
Just when Anne was trying to brush up on favorability. Chris pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Hagen with a large bouquet of flowers, almost covering his face.
Anne always felt that Chris seemed to have had a lot of contact with Ariel in her absence recently.
This is definitely not good news.
Looking helplessly at Anne, who had blocked Ariel behind her like an old hen blocking a chick, Hagen put the bouquet in his hand on the table.
"Brother, don't you think it's rude to suddenly break into the room of three women?"
"It's not a break-in...... And also. I'm here today because I want to talk to you about something.
Chris thought for a while, but still spoke: "In fact, just after the assassination yesterday, the orcs began to send troops to attack overnight. ”
"Attack?" Ariel put down the apple she was biting into in her hand. "So it's going to war again?"
"Yes, and the reason why they went to war in defiance of the armistice is even more ridiculous, to say that another chief has been attacked by human assassins. ”
"It's clearly a rake!" Anne stood up angrily, "Those guys with tails and ears are so disgusting. Except, of course, Moe Moe and Ahri. ”
...... Is there such a thing as you to protect your shorts?
"So, I'm going to bring reinforcements later. This time, I'll just go with Hagen. You don't have to go. ”
"How can this be, I should be on the front line of the war......" Anne disagreed.
"Alright, Annie. Ariel said, "We really don't have to go. Chris should be able to deal with those orcs with an IQ of nine. ”
"Ariel, you actually speak for your brother. Anne was anxious, "Sure enough, there is already some secret between the two of you that cannot be said." ”
"Not really. ”
Chris would only feel more and more embarrassed if he stayed any longer, so he and Hagen quickly found an excuse to slip out.
"Ariel, my brother must be in danger if he goes alone. Anne kept walking back and forth in the hospital room.
"Rest assured, war is not a matter of quantity, it mainly depends on strategy. The guys we met last time were stupid guys, and as long as Chris was well prepared, it was perfectly fine. ”
It's just that Ariel didn't think of it. This time, Chris is no longer facing the orcs who only charged with weapons last time. It's a fox with no less intelligence than a human.
―――――――――――――――――― ――――――――――――――――――
"The orcs have led an army to attack the defensive line, and they have entered the line with the army, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate high-ranking people and provide aid to the army.
This is your last chance, and I won't ask about the previous things. ”
With a blank face, he read the small note sent by the owl.
Ahri, leaning against a dark alley, sighed softly.
Different from previous tasks, this time my brother's tone was obviously much heavier, and it was even an order.
But do it yourself. Ahri just can't do it.
Turn around and walk into a small house in the alley, where the wolves are housed.
In order to prevent the wolf from exposing his brother's affairs, since the day he caught him, Ahri has poured a potion on the wolf every day that can sleep all day.
But when Ahri walked in today, he found that he had woken up. And the wolf who just broke the rope.
"Wolf, what's wrong with you?"
It stands to reason that the wolf should still be asleep now.
"Hmph, do you think that potion will work for the Wolf King? The Wolf King is just waiting for his body to recover. Although there were still many wounds on his body, the wolf quickly pounced on Ahri.
Flashing the wolf's claws, a dagger appeared in Ahri's hand, and seven large tails were revealed.
"I didn't know it all along, but it turns out that you have seven tails. However, no matter how strong you are, you are only a fox!"
Ignoring the dagger that came at him, the wolf's claws went straight to Ahri's neck.
Because the movement was too fast, Ahri had to use a dagger to block.
With a crisp sound, Ahri's dagger was directly slapped away by the wolf's sharp claws.
Realizing that he was not an opponent to him, Ahri hurriedly escaped from the house, and then the wolf chased after him.
In terms of speed, Ahri was still a cut short of a wolf, and at the moment when Ahri was about to be caught, she suddenly noticed a familiar figure walking by at the exit of the alley.
It's Hua Ling!
Hurriedly changed his tail back, Ahri ran out with all his strength, and then fell in front of Hua Ling.
"Ahri, what are you doing here?"
Hua Ling was stunned for a moment, and just wanted to ask, but found a figure following Ahri.
"Immovable as a mountain. ”
Hua Ling stood in front of Ahri to block her, and the wolf, who hadn't figured out what was going on, crashed directly into Hua Ling's shield.
"Hua Ling, that assassin wants to kill me. Save me. ”
Assassin?
"Don't listen to her nonsense! Little girl, where is the Emperor! Although he was a little dizzy from the bang, the wolf realized that it was impossible to deal with Ahri now.
So the most important thing to do now is to tell the Emperor what happened to the Orcs.
"Hua Ling, he is an assassin, he wants to kill His Majesty, don't say it, arrest him. ”
Ahri, who was lying on the ground, put on a panicked look, and Ahri was known to Hua Ling.
So good and evil formed in Hua Ling's head in an instant.
"Catch the assassins! Catch the assassins!" Hua Ling shouted as she protected Ahri behind her.
"Hush. Seeing that the girl seemed to only believe Ahri's appearance, and that it looked like the guards were coming, the wolf had no choice but to flee.
Seeing this, Ahri finally breathed a sigh of relief, but since the wolf said just now that he was looking for Chris, it means that he wanted to expose his brother's plan, so he still had to find a chance to let him sleep for a while.
(Second shift tonight.) Ask for recommendations and collections. )
(After two days, I may only be able to change it once a day, because I don't have an Internet at school, and I don't know how many words I can code every day, and I don't have so many manuscripts, so I can only have one chapter a day on a regular basis.) )
(I'm sorry, but I'll lose a lot of it every day on weekends, so I guess I'll make up for it.) (To be continued......)
