Chapter 68: Little Slicker and Alex (Part I)
"Who are you?"
Tails sat down on the ground in a daze, staring at the bespectacled cat-faced girl. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I ...... I'm just looking for someone to ask for the way out of the council chamber, and I'm ......" Tails paused for a second, still deciding to shove his identity back down his throat, so he barely managed to squeeze out a smile: "I just arrived at Valhalla today." ”
"Oh. The girl lying on the ground shrank back, timidly said, and helped her dusty round black glasses to make it more upright: "I thought that no one would come here......"
The heavy black glasses were obviously too big, and they could barely fit on the girl's ears, and with her dirty little face, it looked particularly funny.
"That'...... Are you?" Tails stood up and patted the dust off his body with a friendly smile.
"I ...... I'm here to help people......" The little girl stammered, and with questions and hesitation, she glanced cautiously at Tails, as if she were a little afraid.
Like a little squirrel that only encountered a falcon, hiding in a tree hole and shivering.
I only heard her say in a weak voice: "I...... I seem to have heard from the people in the kitchen that a lot of people are coming to Valhalla lately. ”
Tails frowned.
Helping people work?
Listen to the people in the back kitchen?
Don't......
A thought crossed his mind.
According to the routine said by a girl in the late stage of secondary two disease:
In a strange palace, a Shota or Lori pops up out of nowhere, still moving freely in the unguarded area, and no matter how sloppy or strange he/she dresses and behaves strangely—Tails glances at the blonde's outfit with deep suspicion—there is only one identity.
"Are you the daughter of a noble family?" Tails narrowed his eyes as he looked at the skinny girl who had struggled to get up from the ground.
I saw that the little girl was stunned for a moment.
Really...... Tails nodded secretly: A routine is a routine.
However, in the next moment, the girl timidly lowered her head, and then- shook her head vigorously.
Hey?
Tails patted the dust off his arm and frowned.
The prince wanders around Valhalla, then he gets lost, then he meets the princess of another country, and then something vulgar happens, and then all kinds of ambiguities - shouldn't this be the case......
Wrong.
The girl—Tails glanced at the books on the floor, then at the girl's glasses—she read, she was literate, and even knew the ancient imperial language.
If you are not a nobleman, you will never have the opportunity to learn this.
There will also be no chance of high myopia.
And...... In Valhalla.
Tails then smiled, "Your last name is Walton, and it's from His Majesty Nunn...... Granddaughter or grandniece?"
But to his surprise, the little girl waved her hands as if frightened, and shook her head desperately: "No, no, I'm just, I'm just a servant, ordered here...... Looking for something!"
Tails frowned again.
No?
As the little girl shook her head, the black glasses that were larger slipped off the bridge of her nose!
Falling to the ground.
The little girl with platinum hair was visibly taken aback, only to see her scream "ah", squinting her eyes, trying to grab the dropped glasses in mid-air, and fluttering wildly.
But presumably because of her lack of eyesight or something, she stretched out her hand indiscriminately, but in a hurry, she knocked her glasses away.
The wind is blowing.
Tails was startled, subconsciously reached out and grabbed the foreign object flying into his arms - the girl's glasses.
Yo.
Tails curled the corners of his mouth: Looks like I'm good at reflexes.
"Glasses!" the little girl lay down, squinted her eyes, and groped on the ground in panic: "My glasses!"
"Don't be nervous, I'm here. Tails comforted her as he curiously lifted his round black-rimmed glasses in his hand.
The bracket of these glasses seems to be made of metal, no wonder they are so heavy, but unfortunately they have been damaged a lot.
The lenses are not thin, they are still full of dust, and there are even cracks, I don't know if there is accurate optometry technology and glasses manufacturing technology in this world.
Moreover, these black-framed glasses are not as round as they look from a distance, but have a somewhat rounded rectangular shape, which is a bit like that worn by a certain big person......
Profiteering......
Ahem - Tails banishes away some boring memories.
"Excuse me......" The little girl seemed to be very unhappy about her vision after losing her glasses, she lay on the ground, her eyes were blank, and nervously touched in the direction of Tails.
"Don't move," Tails sighed as he walked slowly up to the girl, looking at the poor little creature with his eyes squinted and trying to see clearly.
He crouched down in front of the girl, and the girl's hand touched Tails' knee in a panic, and she quickly retracted in fright.
"Don't be afraid," Tails struggled to make his voice seem friendly and gentle, "it's okay. ”
Tails reached out and brushed away the little girl's platinum-blond shoulder-length hair, revealing her equally dirty left ear, his hand feeling the other tremble slightly.
The little girl lying on the ground shrank and breathed heavily.
The traverser opened his glasses and carefully put the bracket on the girl's ear.
Then press the frame to the bridge of her tiny nose.
Tails let go of his hand and smiled as the little girl's eyes slowly widened behind the glasses.
She opened her mouth wide and looked at the strange boy in front of her in a daze.
Through the dirty lenses, Tails noticed that the little girl's green eyes were crystal clear when viewed closely.
"Be careful," Tails smiled, "you'd better get a new pair of glasses, this one is too big." ”
The little girl reacted suddenly, she quickly got up from the ground, then raised her hands and held the glasses on her nose.
Then he looked up and looked at Tails dumbfoundedly.
But she finally stopped trembling timidly, and the hostile reaction like the animal explosion on her body just now had also decreased a lot.
"So, you're really just a servant?" Tails raised an eyebrow and shrugged helplessly, determined not to ask any more.
The little girl closed her mouth and nodded slightly.
Tails looked at the little girl in front of him at a loss and sighed, "Then can you please tell me how to get to the council chamber?"
The little girl timidly raised her hand: "Go out, go straight, turn right, turn left, go downstairs, turn right......"
The incoherent narration made Tails listen to it loudly.
"Stop!" Tails reluctantly stopped her words and sighed, "Forget it, I'd better find it myself......"
The little girl lowered her head aggrievedly: "I'm sorry ......"
"No, it's not your fault, it's me who is too old...... Wait," Tails, who was about to turn away, shifted his gaze to the little girl: "...... you're looking at"
Tails' face turned solemn.
"What kind of book?"
But he had already seen the page that the little girl had turned on.
The traverser's heart sank.
"Ah, this?"
The little girl scrambled to pull the large book from under her, and with a tense face, she struggled to lift the cover towards Tails.
Tails hurriedly reached out to help her.
"Hero's Dawn!"
At that moment, the little girl's eyes suddenly became energetic behind the glasses, and her words suddenly became confident and fluent: "Tell the story of several different human leaders during the end of the war, written by an elf named Cahill Yeluo!"
Tails watched with some amazement as the girl changed from cowardice to fanaticism.
This guy ......
Wait, let's get back to business.
"The End......" Tails took a deep breath.
"There are a lot of books about this, the so-called unknown monsters lead the traitors of the world, start a war, and we fight to resist......" Tails' eyes became sharp:
"Is there anything different about this book, except that it tells the story of the strength of the enemy, the hardships and sacrifices of the battle, and our inexplicable ......victory in the end, like "The End of the War"."
"You've read 'The End of War'! I've heard it's out of print, it's a book written by an Empire! Only the stars of the south have survived. The little girl's eyes lit up, the corners of her mouth curled, and a dimple appeared on the left side of her face: "And this book tells a lot of special things!"
Tails looked interested.
The little girl's eyes showed frenzy and excitement:
"For example, in the early days of the war, from the east to the west, the endless infighting between countries was combined and framed, and even the Holy Day Church could not suppress it, and even asked the God of the Holy Day to appear himself to stop these internal frictions;"
"It also tells of the later Revival King, Prince Tomund gave a very controversial order during the war, to abandon hatred and old grudges, to use his reputation to recruit all races, including orcs, bonemen, mermaids, and even immortals, and to unite all forces against the enemy army, and this order caused him to incur the dissatisfaction of many people, so that he was robbed of his military power;"
"For another example, after that, Humble's 'General Maple Leaf' was actually better at escaping than fighting, and the people who confronted the Calamity Army head-on were actually Prince Sheng Xuan and Chen Jian, and the 'General Maple Leaf' took the only remaining troops in the east and hid in the east for six full years, and through sneak attacks and calculations, the team actually became stronger and stronger;"
"For example, the Feng King Chen Jian, who was later rumored to be miraculous, was only a prisoner before the war, was being imprisoned in the Triumphant Capital, and was about to be executed, and on the eve of the war, a suspicious person broke into the cell and let Chen Jian and his companions go;"
"It is said that in the most precarious time, someone opened the gates of hell and made a pact with the terrible Seven Sovereigns, successfully bringing demons into our alliance against calamity;"
One by one, the messages bombarded Tails a little overwhelmed, but he still adhered to his purpose and asked calmly: "Did you talk about how those monsters with great power, those disasters, came about?"
"It is said to be the enemy of the gods, but I don't know the specifics," the little girl patted the cover of the book, her face full of red, "The book says that there is nothing at all that can fight those monsters." ”
Tails wondered, "So how did we win?"
But the little girl did not seem to listen to him, and continued to speak happily:
"The book says that in the early stages of the war, we were powerless to resist the strength of those monsters - it seems that they did not say what kind of strength they had - and we could only slow down the enemy with bloodshed and sacrifice until some terrible weapon was invented......"
Tails sighed.
"And what," the little girl said, pointing to one of the pages of the book, her eyes lit up, "until there is a defector among the enemy......
Tails' heart suddenly sank!
"With the same power......"
"Stand on our side. (To be continued.) )
