0 Axia Tias

"Wow! It's my sister!"

"Big sister again!" a group of children surrounded a gray-haired woman.

"yes, I'm here again, are you all right?" the woman crouched down and looked at the children around her.

"Wow! Big sister laughs so fiercely!"

"What a fierce big sister!"

"Terrible ······" The children around him spoke their hearts without reservation.

"Hehe, terrible ······" The woman struggled to keep her smile on her face.

"Come on, Axia, you should admit that the look in your eyes is terrifying. Said a man in the distance.

"Hey, even you say that!" said Axia unhappily.

"Alright, Rin, don't talk about her anymore. Another man who didn't look like anything said to Rin.

"Ahh

"I think Aksia is fierce, but I won't say it casually. Leaning against the tree, he took a sip of tea and said.

"That's true! Even Mr. Hao said so!······ By the way, what about Mr. Candle?" asked Axia.

"I went hunting. ”

"The corpses are in the wilderness. Luxury and Rin gave completely different answers.

"Is that so? Hunting······" Acxia smiled tiredly.

She knew that Rin and Candle didn't have a good relationship, but she didn't understand why.

Obviously, they are very coordinated and cooperative when they perform tasks together, why is the relationship between the two so bad? It's weird. Axia thought.

"Oh, Miss Tias is here!" came the voice from behind Axia.

It's a man with a top hat.

"Yes, I'm here to deliver something to the kids here. Aksia said.

"Thank you Miss Tias. Thank you so much!" said the top hat, bowing to Axia.

"It's nothing, I just happened to stumble upon someone here when I was on a mission······ To be honest, it was really dangerous. Alacia looked at the children around her.

"Yes, I almost fainted when I heard that the children were almost killed by demons. Thankfully, Miss Tias has repelled the demons. ”

"It's just a matter of effort. Acxia said with a smile.

"I didn't expect that even in the Divine Domain, where demons and demons are rare, I would encounter this kind of thing······ White ran over. The top hat's tone was a little gloomy.

"You really care about these kids. ”

"Ah, they are all children of their hometown, and I thought that they would not have a good future where they were, so it would be better for me to raise them. With that, the top hat picked up a child who had fallen to the ground, wiped the dust from his body, and said, "It's almost time." ”

"Almost?what?" asked Al-Aksia.

"I've almost saved up my money now, and it's time to officially lead these kids. After all, I can't afford to be lucky that someone will help me every time a danger arises. ”

"Yes. ”

"I'm going to make one last deal in a few days, and hopefully I'll make some more money. ”

"Sir, did you accede to the adult's request?" asked the guard beside the top hat.

"Yes, he's right, I should have some more money on hand, just in case······ I heard he asked you to do something interesting the other day?" the top hat said to the guard.

"Yes, the lord asked me to help a judge with the paperwork. ”

"Paperwork? To be honest, you've been with me for five years, and I really don't think you have what it takes to handle paperwork. ”

"That's right, but I'm just in charge of writing. The solution was all said by the judge. ”

"Ah, you will. The top hat said as he handed out bread to the children.

"However, the people who say anything are a bit nonsensical. ”

"Hmm, what's going on?" the top hat gave a portion of the bread to Axia, who had come to help distribute it.

"The judge said something I didn't know. ”

"The people in Dragon City are freaks, so you don't care······ Isn't your employer just a weirdo with bandages in his face? He calls you more than I do, and I'm your boss. ”

"Aren't you happy every time I bring in the goods?"

"It does ······"

The person with his face bandaged? It can't be a senior, right? He said that he was going to Dragon City to participate in the Hundred Soldiers. Axia listened intently to the top hat's conversation.

At this moment, a figure came out from the side of the deep forest.

"Oh, it's back. "Look there.

"Harvest!" slowly cleared the figure, a man carrying a deer.

"It's too slow!candle!!It's taking so long for such a simple task?!" Rin looked disdainful.

"Hah?!You kid is looking for trouble?!Why do you have an opinion about Lao Tzu's hunting time? Let me tell you! Lao Tzu has enjoyed the scenery for a while!"

"Damn, you're tired of being alive, what's the matter, do you still want to fight, come on!" Rin was even more energetic.

"Come on, come, who's afraid of whom? Don't persuade us this time! I'm going to kill this bastard!"

"You're really excited? Okay! There's a lot of people here! Let's go out and fight!"

"Let's go!" said Candle as she brutally threw the deer to the ground and walked away with Rin in a huff.

"Well, won't Mr. Hao stop them?" said Axia panicked.

Every time the two of them fight, Luxe will always stop them. But this time, the extravagant performance was a bit abnormal.

"It's okay, no one can die. He took a sip of tea calmly.

The last time they fought, they leveled a mountain! This is not child's play! Alacia remembered the scene when the two men had fought in the past. At first, I thought it was a small fight, but it soon went to an unstoppable situation.

"Hey, I found two pieces of trash outside, did you throw them away?" came a man from where the two had just gone out, carrying two knocked unconscious people in his hands, Candle and Rin.

"Wow, it's Mr. Northwest! You're here!" Axia felt like she had seen a savior.

"Well, it looks like you lost it. With that, Northwest threw the two of them to the ground like a candle had just thrown a deer.

"Damn!Northwest!You just threw me!" Rin got up all of a sudden.

"That's it, Northwest, what do you want to do?!" Candle was also quite dissatisfied.

"If you fight, Axia will be troubled. Bring me a cup too. Northwest asked for tea as he squinted at the two men.

"If you don't accept it······" Northwest's body exuded a strong fighting spirit, and said, "You can come and beat me." ”

"yes, if you don't think it's enough to fight, I can come. Luxury also wrote and looked at the two of them.

"Hey, Northwest, don't do that, it'll scare the kids!" Aksia hurriedly stopped Northwest.

"Oh, sorry, sorry. With that, the Northwest retracted.

"It's a great company, it's so energetic. The top hat said.

"Huh? really······ Although sometimes it is just a headache. Axia looked at the four with a wry smile.

These four people met shortly after Aksia and Jue separated, and it seems to be a combination. At the beginning, Axia and these four people happened to perform the same task to make money, so there was an intersection, and slowly, Axia also became one of the four people, adding a touch of color to the combination of the four big men.

At this time, a child gently pulled Axia's clothes.

"Huh, what's wrong?"

"Does my sister have anyone you like here?"

"Huh?" Axia was stunned for a moment.

Are today's children so precocious? Axia searched her mind for the answer to this child.

"Alas, does my sister really have someone she likes?"

"Wow! Oh really! My sister didn't answer!"

What should I do? Although these people take good care of me on weekdays, and these four are not bad-looking. But I didn't even think about it······ The question is what they think of me?" thought Axia, stealthily turning her gaze to the four.

It was clear that all four had heard the conversation and were all looking at Axia as if they were concerned about her answer.

What's the matter? Won't you help me out of the siege?" Axia cast a message for help with his eyes, but the four of them didn't react at all.

"Ahem, no. These people are just my sister's colleagues. ”

"Ah, colleagues?" the children were quite unhappy with the result.

What is going on with the children now? Acxia was devastated, and she looked at the four of them again, and found that everyone's faces were much looser, as if they were relieved.

"By the way, Northwest, why are you here?" asked Hao.

"Oh, it's time for a mission. Northwest pulled out a scroll.

"Mission?" Rin and Candle leaned over.

"It'······" Everyone except the Northwest shook.

"In other words, it's time, right?" Rin asked Northwest.

Northwest nodded wordlessly.

"So, so be it······ Axia!" Candle called Axia's name.

"Huh?"

"It's time to go! There's work to do!"

"Oh! Okay······ Sister, I'll go first. Aksia said goodbye to the children around her.

"Miss Tias, be careful. The top hat shouted to her as well.

"Yes!" Axia joined the four, heading off into the distance.

"What is the mission this time?" asked Axia.

"Ah, go on a crusade against a monster······" Candle said with a rare serious expression.

“······ Is it strong?" said Axia felt uneasy.

Candle nodded slightly.

"It's okay, it's okay, we're going to kill him too, right?" Rin was happy.

"That's it, we're the strongest squad in the Divine Domain! Even the kings of the great powers of the East have rewarded us!"

"Well, we're not going to let you get hurt anyway. The Northwest also made bold statements.

"Stop talking about this kind of topic, talk about other ······ By the way, Axia, you said before that you were a dependant of the Protoss, can you tell me how you became a dependent?" Rin changed the subject.

"yes, I don't know how Axia became a dependent. "The candle also came to the spirit.

"Hehe, it's a bit boring, do you want to hear it?"

"Of course. ”””

"Alright then, then I'll start—"

"I was born into a very ordinary family, with loving parents and a happy life. But this was just a flash in the pan.

The honest father was seduced by the bad guys and invested the family's money, but he was tricked. The family's life soon collapsed, and the family's debts did not know how to do more and more. Soon, the debt collector came to the door.

Although they did not do anything terrible, the mother committed suicide in fear, and the father became thinner and thinner in remorse and fear, and finally fell ill and died. So, I was left alone in the family. ”

"Haven't you considered going to your relatives?" asked Hao.

"Who would adopt someone who owes a debt?" said Axia with a slight sneer. Although it was a laugh, her voice trembled a little.

"After the death of my parents, the creditors quickly took possession of my home and sold me. I don't know whether to say lucky or unlucky, but my slave caravan was attacked by demons, and I had a chance to escape from it. But what means of subsistence did I have when I escaped from it? I was less than ten years old at the time, and hunting was impossible.

So, out of compulsion, I looked through the wreckage of the caravan for something to eat······ This also includes human corpses. At this, Axia choked up.

She looked at the four of them and said, "It's terrible, isn't it? In order to survive, they will not hesitate to eat the corpses of their own kind." ”

They glanced at each other with a wry smile.

"Looks like that guy······" Rin smiled rather awkwardly.

"yes, yes, that's just that guy's style. Candle also said quite tiredly.

"Well, you guys, don't you think it'······." Just as Axia was full of doubts, Northwest interrupted the conversation.

"Hey, hey, hey, off topic. "Northwest refers to Rin and Candle.

"Oh, sorry. Aksia continued her story—

So, I walked aimlessly while trying to survive. After that, I finally found a city. However, I didn't have any money at the time, so I had to wander around the streets and try to steal something to eat when I was hungry. Although there have been alms from people who are also poor, there are ······ Everyone died for a variety of reasons. In the end, I was left alone to survive in the city.

To be honest, I kind of hate the world. I never understood why I had to accept such suffering. Beaten, scolded, and disliked······ I'm proud that I was able to keep my sanity at that time.

Until the day of the rainstorm, the wound caused by the original stealing suppurated, and I didn't eat for two days in a row, I didn't have the strength to move anymore. Really, I really thought my end was coming. However, the rain above my head suddenly stopped - it was a man with an umbrella. At first I thought he was here to hurt me, but he gave me food and used a spell to repair my wounds. However, I have lived in the lower class of society for a long time, and I understand that a person will not be good to others for no reason, so I still don't believe him.

But he pinched my face and said, 'Nice looks.' ’。 ”

"Huh. Rin smiled awkwardly, then elbowed him.

After that, the man began to take care of me, told me to read and write, and let me practice martial arts. But the happy days were always short-lived for me—the man left, and before he left he gave me a feather, a blood-veined feather, and he told me to pierce it in my chest, and said that I would be his second dependent.

In the end, all he left was 'Go get strong!' and then go find me!'" said Axia, clasping his hand over his chest.

"So, I set out on a journey to become stronger and find my master!"

"What a ······ It's an indescribable story. Rin said.

"Axia's childhood didn't seem to be very happy. Candle frowned.

“······ Remember when it was the second dependent?" said Zephyr in a very small voice.

"It's here. Luxury stopped suddenly.

"Where is this?" said Axia, looking at the cave in front of him.

"Let's go. Candle said in a tone as if he were facing a great enemy.

The group walked into the cave. Alasia barely managed to see the way under the extravagant light spell.

How did those four men walk on the ground? Axia thought as he looked at the candle walking in front of the ball of light and Northwest.

The silence in the cave was so silent that even the echo was as low as if it had seen something terrible.

Nothing is going to happen, is it?

"Don't worry, Axia is a person who has killed demons, and it is a good level for the family members of the Protoss. The candle seemed to see Axia's uneasiness.

"That's it······ Well, who taught you how to fight?" Rin said earlier.

"In addition to the host, there is also ······"

"Shhhh——!h

All five of them realized the danger and set up their postures to face the battle.

Footsteps came from the other side of the cave. Sound-sounding should be a person.

"Welcome. A figure slowly approached.

The figure approached, and the light of the ball of light shone into the figure.

He is dressed in a white-based costume with tawny silk threads on it. The man wore a metal mask over his face, covering his entire face. The long sword at his waist exuded a powerful oppressive force. The sense of difference in biological level made Axia's heart quite irritable and restless.

"Cut! Did you come up directly?" he pulled his sword from his waist.

Candle, Rin, and Northwest all drew their swords.

"Oh, I'm here to challenge, that's good, welcome. The man in front of Axia said in a rather relaxed tone.

As soon as the words fell, the west wind rushed straight up.

——!The loud sound of metal colliding echoes through the cave. Axia was frightened by the enemy who was blocking Zephyr's attack with his sword.

Can he actually take the attack of the west wind?! Who is this man sacred?!

Zephyr's swordsmanship Aksia has seen it, it is quite fast, and it is also very powerful.

By the time the enemy received the attack of the west wind, the candle had already circled behind the enemy.

"Sneak attack from behind, useless!" The enemy flicked off Zephyr's sword, spun around, and stabbed the candle.

"Candle, are you alright?!" he quickly spared the battlefield and pulled the candle up from the ground by the way.

"There's rats running. The enemy glanced at him contemptuously. Then with a quick swing of his arm, a sharp sword stabbed out of the ground.

"What?!" Haul immediately stopped, but was still cut by the sword.

"Do you use spells, we're being looked down upon!" he poured mana into his sword, then slashed around him. A powerful blade of air sliced through the sword on the ground like a weed, and flew towards the enemy.

"Clear the obstacles on the ground? But ······" The enemy stretched out his hand at the air blade, and defused the attack from the extravagant with a single palm.

"What a monster!" thought Candle in a cold sweat.

At this moment, Axia suddenly appeared behind the enemy and slashed at the enemy's head with the sword her master gave her.

"Huh?" Axia froze as his sword approached the enemy's head.

With just two fingers, the enemy pinched a full blow from Axia.

"Oh yes, it's the sword of the gods, the black dragon, this is really a dangerous thing. confiscated. With a slight flick of the sword, the enemy threw Aksia off the sword.

Ahh

"Give her back the sword!" Rin attacked the enemy from all directions.

"Illusion······ No, is it an entity? It's also very capable of creating so many physical clones. The enemy closed his eyes slightly.

"Unfortunately, such an attack is insignificant. The enemy spread out his hands, and saw two petal-like objects slowly falling from the enemy's hands.

Then, the petals fell to the ground.

Sharp ice picks pierced Rin's doppelganger like a horse.

“······ Isn't the main body here?"

"That's it. The enemy stabbed the side of his body with the sword in his hand.

Rin appeared in the posture of slashing people with a sword.

"Sound from east to west, good tactics. With that, the enemy threw Rin to the ground like garbage.

"You're dangerous. After throwing Rin to the ground, the enemy made up another sword from behind him.

"As for you······ By the way, let's try the power of this eighth-level magic weapon!" the enemy said happily as he looked at Candle, Luxury, and Northwest.

The enemy infused mana into the sword in his hand, and the blade quickly responded to the enemy's actions and became light.

"······Ahh

Alasia listened to the self-absorbed voice of his enemies. What can she do without weapons?

[So you're really weak.] A familiar voice rang out from the depths of Axia's mind.

It's Jue's voice.

["Senior, I'm very tired!"

"Why did you choose you?" Jue looked down at Acxia, who was tired and lying on the ground.

"Why did I ask you to be a teacher in the first place?" said Axia.

"Don't worry, even if you don't ask me to be your teacher, I will beg you to let me be your teacher. ”

"What theory?"

"You obviously don't stand out from the crowd······ In addition to having the potential to become a transcendent. However, it is still far away. Jue crouched down, in the same position as Axia.

"Except for the face, there are some things to look at······" Jue pinched Axia's face.

"Before, senior?" Axia glared behind Jue.

"Oh, is it so that you can give birth to the next generation for that guy? What a bad guy······" Jue suddenly seemed to understand.

"Senior! That guy is here! That demon isn't dead yet!"

"It's really useless, look at it. Jue said as he walked towards the demon.

Looking at the fearless and confident Jue, Axia was quite relieved.

By the side of the seniors, I'm not afraid of anything. Aksia thought at the time. 】

Senior, I'm not weak. Axia remembered the sword Jue had given her before leaving.

"I'm your student!" Alasia charged at the enemy with his sword.

""""——!?The four of us and the enemy couldn't help but be taken aback when they saw Aksia rushing towards us.

"Stupid! this is not an attack you can take!" said Lux, hurriedly casting a spell at Axia.

A powerful wave of air blew Axia away.

"Luxury!"

Alasia was thrown into the air, and she could only watch as a whirlwind of steel burst from the enemy's sword engulfed her three companions.

After the whirlwind ended, three bloody men who could not be identified with the naked eye fell to the ground.

"Looks like you've peeled off your skin perfectly······ It is worthy of an eighth-level magic weapon!" the enemy looked at the bloody man with considerable satisfaction.

"You bastard!" Acxia quickly rose from the ground and rushed at his enemies with no strategy.

The superb swordsmanship was struck out from Axia's hand, and the swordsmanship that slashed out like the wind and walked like flowing water made the enemy marvel under the mask.

"Really!······ It's a lot like him!" The enemy said in a tone of surprise though he easily defused Al-Aksia's attack.

Axia didn't reply, just glared at the enemy.

Why? Why am I only now practicing the swordsmanship taught by my predecessors?

"This swordsmanship······ Reminds me of someone. "The enemy looked at the roof of the cave as if he had seen someone.

"What a bastard!" said the enemy with a smile after a long time.

"You are not allowed to insult your seniors!" said Axia, and once again rushed towards the enemy.

Rainstorm-like continuous stabs, rock-falling heavy slashes, strong wind-like horizontal slashes. Axia imitated Jue's original movements as he recalled them.

Senior, I did it! The monster is retreating! Axia saw that the enemy's pace was a little flustered, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his heart.

"Very good, I didn't expect to be suppressed in swordsmanship······ Worthy of that bastard's disciple!" The enemy still defuses Axia's attack,

"But······ Creature from the south of the gap you can't cross······" The enemy's speed suddenly increased.

The enemy dodged Axia's attack with great ease and punched her in the stomach.

"Ahem——!" Axia almost fainted from the punch.

Axia's whole body was disengaged, and his whole body hung on the enemy's arm.

At this moment, the enemy ruffled Axia's hair with his other hand and stroked Axia's cheek.

"Really, you've got a nice face. The enemy said close to Aksia's ear.

This made Axia shudder in the back.

"If you kill it······ It's a shame. ”

Axia tried to get up, but she had no strength but fell to the ground.

"Good news for you, they're not dead yet. "As soon as the enemy snapped his fingers, several light guns hovered over the heads of everyone except Axia.

"You, what is the purpose of leaving us alive?!" Axia glared at his enemy.

"Hahaha!" the enemy thrust his sword into the ground.

A pair of blood-veined wings spread out from behind the enemy.

That's exactly the same as the feather her master gave you?!Aksia was surprised by the enemy's wings.

"Give me your body, and I'll spare one of them!" said the enemy, rather arrogantly.

"What?" Axia couldn't believe his ears.

"You mean, to commit me to you?" Aksia asked.

"Exactly······ Death or survival, choose one. ”

Axia lowered her head and bit her lip.

Sorry, Jue. Maybe I'll never see you again······ I want you to see my growth······ At that time, no matter what kind of me is, will you accept it?

Aksia lifted her tear-stained face and said, "Okay." ”
