Skretil's Ignorance Walker

As the sunset gradually faded and night began to cover the earth, two girls were running quickly.

"Damn it! Why didn't you think it was so far away when you came here?"

The leader, Kathleen, cursed. They had been running for more than ten minutes, but before they reached the town, the surrounding light began to dim and darkness slowly approached them.

Once it enters the night, the forest is very dangerous.

"Be careful, Your Highness!"

Just as Katherine was panting and continuing to run, Yingge behind her suddenly increased her speed and pushed her down. Then an arrow passed through the position where she was about to arrive, and one of them was shot from Yingge's arm. It was wiped on and brought up a string of blood beads.

"Ugh...it hurts so much..."

Kathleen slowly stood up with support from her hands. She had been pushed down while running fast, causing her to fall badly.

But when she saw the injured Ying Ge, Kathleen couldn't help but worry.

"You're hurt! Are you okay?"

"It's okay, just a scratch."

Looking at the wounds on Ying Ge's body that have not yet healed, as well as the new wounds that were added just now, they are all thanks to himself. It was obvious that Vera had tried to dissuade her, but she just refused to listen and insisted on running here. Not only did she put herself in danger, but Yingge was also injured again, which made Kathleen feel a little guilty.

"I'm sorry... Ying Ge."

Kathleen lowered her head and whispered. Although Yingge had only been with her for less than four years as her personal maid, over the past four years Yingge had been loyally protecting her and handling various chores for her. In the eyes of Catherine, Yingge is not only her maid, but also a trustworthy friend and companion. Not only will she accompany her to do various things, but she will also be like Fedor after something happens. Taking the initiative to take responsibility for herself made Kathleen very close to her.

"There is no need for this. My mission is to protect your safety, Your Highness. Nothing else matters."

Yingge smiled. Although it might not be appropriate in the current situation, she didn't want to make Kathleen sad. As an orphan, Yingge was picked up and trained by the palace people since she was a child. Her only goal in life is to protect the little princess in front of her. This is the education she has received since she was a child. Be it brainwashing or coercion, Yingge has long been accustomed to this, and she doesn't feel uncomfortable around Kathleen. Kathleen does not discriminate against her because of her origin, but treats her like a true friend. This made Ying Ge very grateful to Kathleen.

However, the affectionate reminiscing between the two did not last long, because the footsteps around them began to slowly approach, and after a while, more than a dozen strong figures came out of the surrounding woods.

"Who are you? How dare you do harm to the princess?"

Yingge immediately protected Kathleen behind her. Although they were now surrounded, Yingge still did not give up and kept looking for opportunities to escape. She knew that Katherine was not a weak woman with no strength. Katherine, who had been trained by a court teacher since she was a child, also knew some swordsmanship. With the help of magic, she was more than enough to deal with ordinary people. But she I haven't had any actual combat yet, so I will inevitably show some timidity when facing some extremely vicious gangsters.

But as long as he carves a way for Kathleen to escape, Kathleen can escape safely. As for herself, we will talk about it later.

Facing Yingge's question, these people did not answer. They all wrapped their bodies in black cloaks, making it difficult to see their faces and genders. In response, Yingge raised his sword, at least he had to hold on until Vera arrived. OK.

Just like being strung together by wires, more than a dozen men in black surrounding the two people moved at the same time. Their uniform movements made people wonder if they were different clones of the same person.

Upon seeing this, Yingge released her magic power, and a shock wave was sent out around her, hoping to resist the opponent's charge.

However, this seemed to be of no use. The magic shock wave hit the man in black and failed to cause much damage to him. They continued to approach the two people as before.

The two of them felt a little suffocated by the dangers coming from all directions at the same time, but Yingge still had the mission to protect Kathleen. She raised her sword seriously and rushed towards the person in front of her with Kathleen.

After the two men met in hand-to-hand combat, a clear sound of metal collision was heard. The other party also took out his weapon, which was a scimitar. At this time, he was defending Yingge's attack. At the same time, the men in black from other directions were also approaching quickly. , wanting to win Yingge in one fell swoop.

Ying Ge threw several flying knives again, and then continued to attack the man in black in front of her. She only hoped that these flying knives could block the opponent for even a second, so that she could create a bloody path for Kathleen.

However, when Yingge's flying knife approached these men in black, it was easily shot down. Just as one of them raised his knife to chop Yingge's back, a dazzling magic light spear struck from a distance, and the powerful magic The pressure made the men in black dare not move forward, so they all had to retreat to avoid this powerful attack.

The magic light spear passed through Yingge and Kathleen. The unlucky guy in front of Yingge who had no time to avoid was pierced by the light spear, and then fell to the ground.

Yingge looked into the distance at this time, and what caught her eyes was Vera's figure. After defeating the Jagged Gang Bear, Vera rushed over immediately, and she just arrived now.

"You guys leave quickly!"

The blockers in front of the two of them had been eliminated, so Vera asked them to leave quickly, while she stood behind them, preventing them from getting closer to them.

Facing Vera, the remaining men in black also hesitated. After looking at each other, they all retreated into the woods on both sides. After a while, their breath disappeared from Vera's perception. .

Although Vera was a little concerned about these people, since they had slipped away, she had to quickly follow Kathleen. She didn't know if there would be any danger ahead.

Vera used magic to hurry up and caught up with the two of them after a while. At this time, they had reached the outskirts of the town, only a dozen meters away from the nearest house.

"Huh...it should be okay, right?"

After entering the town, Kathleen gasped and wiped the sweat from her head. They were now on the street of the town, and there were still some pedestrians around. The other party should not attack her here.

Moreover, the three of them had reunited at this time, so everything should be fine.

"It was so dangerous just now. Your Highness Catherine, please don't do anything dangerous again in the future."

After confirming that the surroundings were safe, Vera put her hands on her hips and stared at Kathleen seriously. The latter felt a little guilty and could only nod.

"Well, thanks to Lady Vera's presence this time, I won't do it again next time."

Katherine said this. She looked at the injured Yingge beside her. Although she only suffered a little scratch this time, she looked at the wound that had not completely healed before and looked at it again without blaming herself. With an almost expressionless face that remained silent, Kathleen warned herself again in her heart that she must not do this again next time.
