() "Zero? You... bullied the boss? Why did I hear him calling you a beast as soon as I came in?" Just at this time, the miko opened the door and came in. (Please remember our website address) Although it seems that she knows the real reason, the miko has been much more cheerful recently than before, and the resentment in her eyes has faded a lot.
"Well, I ruined his..." Zero replied, "... his feelings. That's what he said." I remember that when we first met, the miko used this speech method that made people speechless. Just the paragraph before the pause, It makes people want to have a pot, although the truth is completely as plain as water.
"I thought you would be doing some shameful things there when you got up early in the morning." The witch let out a long sigh of relief, "But if we happen to be together, there is no need to go to the trouble of looking for you. The alliance headquarters sent an invitation this morning, and we will go there together in the evening. Would you like to go to the Christmas ball?"
"Sure enough, there is such a thing? Why can I go too..." Logically speaking, she should have no sense of presence in the temple, and she doesn't think anyone in the alliance knows that she is staying in the temple.
"Yes, three people were invited. Michelle Elsa Shiva, Michelle Lea Zero Moon Shiva, and Mary Fey Shiva. I'm not telling you that the Alliance Isn’t the intelligence network of the boss quite terrifying? How about you bring an entourage with you, or a family member, a dance partner, etc. Anyway, it’s up to you. I’ll come over and ask the boss to be my dance partner, so she owes me.”
"Miko, it's not what I said. The height difference between us..." Sora stretched out his hand and put it on the shoulders of the miko. "The height difference between us does not allow me to be your dance partner."
"Then just follow me." She replied immediately, "You have to come with me anyway. There is no negotiation. As for the identity of other birds, I don't really mind. Do you think you can refuse?"
"Okay." Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, the miko said, "That's it, Zero, remember not to cause any trouble at night, at seven o'clock. If you need a dress, there is always something suitable for you in the temple. Yes. Well, remember your entourage, oh no, dance partner."
After the miko finished speaking, she looked at Sora fiercely and kicked her on the knee before slamming the door and leaving.
Zero turned his head and looked at Sora, hoping to get an explanation.
"Yeah, that's right." He replied perfunctorily, "If you want to go, go ahead. It's quite fun to go and have fun."
"I mean..." she explained, "the miko's kick just now was so classic, you didn't even dare to fart."
"Do you think it's quite classic? That guy is taking revenge. No one has paid her wages for so many years..."
"Excuses." Ling spread his hands helplessly, "You always have so many excuses anyway. Who knows how much you owe others, hey, I don't care about your mess. Then I'll go and go back to find a dance partner or something. "She originally wanted to imitate the miko and raise her feet to look at Sora's knees and kick them over, but in the end she didn't have the heart to kick them out. "By the way, Sora." After walking out of the door, she poked her head back, "Happy birthday, well, although it's tomorrow, I want to make it early. You're the Santa Claus in the middle of the night today, right? Don't get stuck in the chimney and you can't get out. coming."
"Dance partner?" Ayane lazily got out of the quilt, "You should consider asking Fei to accompany you. I think I am not suitable for wearing men's clothing. Well, everyone in the Basic Alliance knows my appearance."
"By the way Zero, did you take away my underwear this morning? I couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so I had to continue sleeping." She asked.
"Another excuse." She replied, "That's completely impossible. You just planned to sleep in. I don't blame you anyway."
"Michelia"
"Don't be numb." A wave of goosebumps arose, "Now the entire temple is a pink color. How come it suddenly turned like this? It wasn't cold before, but it still smells like this. It's really strange."
"After you left, Feiyu came here. She wanted to find you as a dance partner or something." Ayane said, "I heard that you went to find Sora, and you probably flew to the laboratory again."
"What did he do in the laboratory all day? I remember that he came back not long ago. Did he immediately know what he should do?" However, Zero thinks that the father and daughter should find more time to spend together, and It’s not like we meet in a hurry and then say goodbye.
"I don't know very well myself, so I'm too lazy to take care of him." Ayane replied, "That guy doesn't need to worry about anything. As long as you don't mess with him, there will be absolutely nothing. And he really has no intention of going there. What happened?"
"Okay then." Since Ayane said it was fine, it should be nothing. "I'm going to find Fei. If he refuses, I won't go today. In fact, I didn't plan to go in the first place. I just don't understand why the alliance knows that I am here..."
"Basically, as long as there is a slightly important person, the Alliance will do everything possible to collect all information, not to mention you, the princess of the Principality of Etalanti. They should probably know even if there is any evil intention..."
"Is it true?" If it is true... the feeling of chills on the spine is quite terrifying.
"You're kidding. After all, if I even peek at you when you go to take a shower, this alliance will have no standing at all. After all, it still represents the righteous party." Ayane replied nonchalantly.
Zero now always feels that the description of the righteous side is becoming more and more illusory.As the imaginary alliance gets closer to reality, the glorious image will be peeled off layer by layer, revealing the original appearance that is quite consistent with common sense.However, this appearance is incompatible with the righteous and glorious image. In other words, it is quite sad for a little girl who usually looks forward to the alliance.
She just smiled bitterly, looked at Ayane's face, pressed her back into bed, and walked out of her room.Ling planned to arrange things for the evening as soon as possible. If Feiyu found him before then, he might not be able to do anything all day long.It's not that training is a waste of time. In short, Feiyu can find all kinds of reasons to kill time, so that she can't take any free time.
If basic etiquette hadn't changed after so many years, I'd be happy to help.Fei had a rather indifferent attitude towards this invitation. She really looked like she had just come to the temple and was sitting in a pile of books every day.Zero knows that different people have different interests in reading, but the same thing is that as soon as they dive into a book, the time they spend will be endless.Now that he has agreed to this matter, Zero no longer dwells on anything. Since the last time he brought the elf to the library, the elder seemed to dislike him very much. Looking at his expression, Zero felt extremely disgusted. look.
"Nafei, I'm leaving first. Everyone will be waiting for you in the hall of the temple for seven days in the evening. You will have to leave in another half hour." She finally said.
Fei nodded and said nothing.After seeing this makeshift answer, Ling left without looking back. The hatred of the elders in the temple was terrifying. It seemed that everything became theirs, and all the rules must be done according to their wishes. Any disagreement or violation of those rules should be blamed.In other words, what is crazy about the temple is not just the actual members, but also the elders and even the workers are equally crazy.
Feiyu didn't come to the door, so there was nothing to do for the whole day.After Christmas is approaching, more and more guests come to the temple. Almost the nobles of Longdu will find some excuse to visit at this time. Some families have their patriarchs coming, and some have their eldest son or daughter. They are all great people, but Elsa's blank expression from morning to night shows that she is quite uninterested in these, and most of her so-called contacts are in a perfunctory manner.It is said that strength determines attitude. It seems so. The visitors still respect the miko quite a lot. Zero stayed in the hall for a day and encountered almost the same situation.
Naturally, the temple's treatment of guests is not as cold as expected, but it also does not accumulate such smiles.When she was free, she complained to Zero, "I'm really not in the mood to build some kind of power or conspire with a smile on my face."
It doesn't seem like she's not good at this, she's just simply unwilling or too lazy to think about it.Dragon City not only has a strong romantic cultural atmosphere, it is also the political center of this continent. As long as there are more powerful forces, there is always no shortage of people to curry favor with them.Flirting together naturally means discussing some small conspiracies and so on.Everything becomes boring after the test of time.The miko believes that if she loses those vague expectations in her heart, she will no longer have a reason to live.
"But, Zero. This is not something you should consider. I just need someone to listen to my sorrows occasionally," she said with a smile after complaining. "Looking at your dress, it fits you quite well. It looks like I would be a little envious, if only I were a little taller."
"I also wonder why there are such appropriate gowns in the temple," she replied.
"It's made according to Sophia's size." said the witch. "It fits you horribly. Look at Feiyu's figure, which is the same as mine. She looks like a child. In fact, I think... If I ask my boss to be my follower, will it embarrass him?"
Looking in the direction indicated by the witch, Fei Yu stood there with her face flushed with embarrassment and was at a loss.The so-called nobility, in addition to gorgeous clothes, must also appear quite noble in temperament and speech and behavior.The little girl who was used to wearing magician robes in the temple was really not used to them all now wearing formal clothes.In the story, according to the custom of dancing, there will always be some unexpected fate.It's just that with such a large group of people passing by, Zero himself doesn't have much hope. Besides, it seems that he doesn't need to hope anymore.Yes, nobles, I have never thought that these people around me are all well-established guys, and they can kill a whole group of people just by using any identity.
I remember Zero coming to Carlin's house for the first time.Like Sarah's family, they are both wealthy and wealthy, and the entire manor looks like a national park. Just when the carriage enters the main entrance, it has to go through a long forest path. After a slight bump for a while, you can see the old castle in the woods.At this time, the sun has almost disappeared from the west, and the crimson moonlight is slightly quiet.
The lively scene in the square at the front gate of the castle shows that this place is not the common impression that vampires and other races live in later stories, but the patriarch of the Yilan family lives here.Indeed, as a large Longdu family, the feeling of the manor alone is quite shocking.After all, the temple was on a mountain, but here it was on a plain. It was a rather subtle feeling. At that moment, Zero felt that the members of the temple were all mountain people.However, she endured this without letting any expression appear on her face. After all, looking at the temple like this was already blasphemy.
There was soft snow falling quietly in the sky. It seemed that most of the staff in the alliance were here, except for the host's daughter, Olivia Carlin Elan, who did not show up.According to Sarah, she was performing some dangerous tasks in some parts of the kingdom, and the reason for all this was just to avoid meeting a certain person.Just like when all the guests arrived but the host did not show up, Zero could clearly see that the expression on Sora's face was more than just a slight loss.
Entering the hall, Zero took off his cloak from his shoulders, lightly covered the snowflakes, and handed it into Fei's hands.The dance is just a simple process of communicating with each other and letting the host show something that should be shown.Zero casually grabbed a glass of red wine that he didn't recognize from the table next to him, and started wandering around the hall.This hall is not simply big. It is estimated that it can accommodate all the trainers working in the alliance. In addition, it can also provide a very beautiful dance floor, countless wine tables, and corresponding various drinks. Taste.
Fei had already been overwhelmed by the crowd. After that, Sora still stayed by Elsa's side obediently. Fei Yu didn't know where she was squeezed. However, those people were completely different. Something to worry about.Before coming here, Elsa once said that there should be nothing to worry about. Let yourself take care of yourself during the dance and don't let an unknown boy be kidnapped suddenly. Of course, the most important thing is not to be kidnapped. Which boy I don’t know.
Zero saw Sarah in the crowd, chatting and laughing with an old-fashioned old man.If what is the temperament of a young lady from a noble family, you can probably understand it by looking at Sarah at that time. Her completely appropriate speech and behavior, and every move she makes seems quite attractive.Just as imagined, the conversation was just a few token greetings, and then the person changed to another person.
After a while she also saw Zero.With a slight nod and a greeting to leave for a moment, Sarah walked towards Zero.
"It's a rare meeting, Your Highness Misseliya."
"Can't you have a normal conversation, Sarah?" Zero asked helplessly, "If you talk like a noble lady, I will be exposed within five sentences."
"I'm almost there too." Sarah said with a wry smile, "It was originally Karin who did it, but she was not here, so my uncle dragged me to this place to take my place temporarily. Etiquette is really a life-threatening thing, but it happens in front of people. You have to look serious." The two people sat down at the table next to them. "Look at the wine you have in your hand. Do you think you can really accept this? Ordinary girls should consider coke. If the boys in the alliance knew that the Princess Michelle Ya in their hearts was If you’re an alcoholic, they’ll be sad.”
After speaking, Sarah shook the goblet in her hand.A burst of bubbles suddenly popped up from the bottom. It was obvious that it was a glass of Coke, but it had the appearance of red wine. "I can only rely on this little cleverness to maintain the face of the so-called noble lady."
Zero put down his wine glass helplessly.In fact, when this cup was brought to my mouth not long ago, the strong smell of alcohol almost overwhelmed Zero.Now there was a step, so he walked down it and got a cup of something that looked like cola, before Zero put his lips to it.The last time the ball touched water, my throat finally felt a little bit.
"Well, I see it's quite hard for you. You have to chat with a lot of guests. In fact, you don't like doing this kind of thing, right?" What Ling asked was really nonsense. It wasn't something you didn't really like, right? What's the problem, but I really don't like it.
"Probably. The person just now is the patriarch of the Yura family. The two families will invite each other during this period of time within a year. This is the basic emotional exchange. It's okay to chat like this occasionally. I can take it. Don't you think he's the kind of guy who can't do anything?" Sarah explained, "Actually, the whole dance is very casual. If you want to say something more formal, you have to show off in front of the noble members."
"Speaking of which, the dress is very beautiful today. When I saw you, I almost dropped my wine glass and threw it to the ground. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and didn't reveal any mistakes. You know, you are wearing such a gorgeous dress today. , it is quite dangerous for a person to look alone at a dance."
"You also know that with so many people coming to the temple today, it is destined that I can only be left aside. Elsa also thinks the same as you. I am the most dangerous today, no matter what it is for me. , or to others." Even though this was a rather narcissistic statement, when Zero stood in front of the mirror and took a good look at himself when he left the temple, it was indeed shocking.Of course, it's shockingly beautiful, not weird.
"Then, I wish you have a good time today. Always remember to be restrained, if you don't want the whole dance to be too crazy." She stood up with a smile, "I have to go back to help uncle receive the guests, we will talk later."
At such a big ball, it was hard enough to chat with each of the visiting distinguished guests, not to mention Sarah didn't like such things.Zero was secretly glad that he didn't need to do such a thing.
However, after the dance started, Zero felt what real boredom was like.After expressing that he had no intention of dancing, Ling sat alone in a quiet corner in a daze, while Sora and Elsa had already turned countless circles to the music one after another. All he could do was I occasionally drink Coke or something here.In fact, it's not that I don't like dancing at all, but that Zero has no intention of learning it since he was a child. Only when he really needs to use it does he realize that knowing some dance steps is quite important.Although a trainer also saw the two guys spinning in circles with this lame dance move, Zero obviously didn't want to run out and embarrass himself at this time. The best choice was to stay in a corner where no one was paying attention.
Although it is said to be a corner that no one pays attention to, it is actually not very peaceful here.As soon as he calmed down from his chaotic imagination, a cup filled with strong red wine was already placed in front of his nose. The sudden strong smell of wine made him almost choke.She looked up at this boring guy and was completely taken aback.
"Can I ask you to dance?"
"No."
"How about sitting down and having a drink?"
"No."
"I don't mind if you continue to sip Coke from this glass," he finally said. "I will be embarrassed if I am rejected too many times, sister."
"Well, please sit down." Zero motioned for him to sit down on the stool next to him, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be enjoying yourself at home?" Finally, quite inadvertently, this troublesome person appeared once .If she didn't have to pay attention to her image in public, she would really go crazy.
"Of course you are here to attend the dance here. Well, if you happen to be here, I will consider selling you to a big family, which can at least bring a little benefit to our principality? Of course, it's been so long, you She’s much more beautiful, and to be honest, I’m becoming more and more reluctant to part with her. I’ve also been thinking about it lately, just be a little poorer and stay at home and raise it by yourself.”
"Are you really my brother? Why do you say such things when we meet? Okay, I admit that I will fight with you for the inheritance of the principality after I go back. Yes, I will bring my army back in a month and wipe out Aita. In the capital of Lanti, anyone who disobeys will be killed, and the shameless ones will be left to be skinned to make some armor." He made such a joke as soon as they met, and Ling took advantage of the situation and got into a fight with this guy.
"Okay, if you continue like this, you will call yourself a devil." He stopped talking, "How have you been these past few months? You have been traveling for such a long time and no one is pampering you. I thought you would think At home, it turns out you look quite proud. I really made a mistake. I wish I had tied you up at home. Yes, I am your brother Yuqi."
"Aren't you going to dance? You seem to be quite popular at ordinary times?" Zero asked him, "Today's situation should be the same. It won't be said that someone better than you appeared at the dance and compared you with others. ?" Ling asked. Most of the young men from noble families have the habit of showing off in front of the opposite sex. No matter who they are, they have a little bit of it.And this guy is probably free for this reason.
"The atmosphere here is a bit stuffy." He took Zero's hand and said, "Let's go outside for a walk. I think you'll be exhausted if you stay here for a while longer."
The two people walked around the ballroom from the edge of the hall, passed through the door and came outside.The sky has completely darkened, and then the sky is still a melancholy blue, with fine snow still floating in the sky. It has not changed since the day.However, after walking out of the hall, the air was indeed much better.Zero subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. It was quite uncomfortable to be alone in such a busy place.
Before he could say anything, he was hugged into a tight bear hug. If you want to know what it's like to be treated by an elder brother who has so many love sisters around him, this is probably the current situation. He is almost suffocating.
"Why don't you call home occasionally and try to get a little bit of information about you through the alliance's intelligence network all day long? That feeling is really painful." After a long time, he let go of his hand and held Zero's shoulder, "You You’ve lost a lot of weight in just a few months, don’t you know how to put on some weight after you leave home?”
"I'm sorry." Subconsciously, he didn't plan to call home. Although he wanted to find a reason, Zero didn't look for it at all. He just did it subconsciously.Even though it is a rather uncomfortable feeling, I always feel that I have forgotten something. When I follow my thoughts and search for it, what is waiting is a rather headache feeling.
"Don't worry, I just don't like the feeling of being forgotten, and neither does your elder brother." He gave a smile that he thought was quite gentle, "How about it, did you get shocked by me this time?"
"I'm used to it, there's nothing special about it." Sitting side by side on a bench in the park, Zero rested his head on his shoulder, "I thought you came here specifically to see me, but it turned out to be just a drop-in?"
"If I knew you were here, of course I would come here to see you." He replied, "Is it just as if you have done so many things without getting a little reward?"
"..." Zero lowered his head. If you take it seriously, there is absolutely no way to answer this kind of question.
"Forget it, no need to answer." He changed the topic, "I heard that you have been living in the temple recently. What is going on? I can't fully accept this yet. It has exceeded my original expectations. scope."
"It's just a coincidence...why is it beyond the expected range?" Zero has never seen this second brother say anything unexpected since he was a child. To a certain extent, he is still quite proud.
"If there is any dispute between each other, even if we are an alliance, it is okay to confront each other, but in front of the temple, I have no position at all." He replied a little helplessly, "I knew I should have said this to you when I left. Yes, after all, the two of us still feel that it is enough for you to stay with us. At this time, when we meet a power organization that is more powerful than us, we feel a little bit useless. "
He has liked to think of the worst of everything since he was a child, and through hard work has gained the ability to face the worst-case scenario. "It won't be like this." Zero didn't know what to say at this time.Staying by his side is another feeling that makes you melt away. This is one of the happiest things in the world.
"I often think about how great it would be if you were just the adopted daughter of the family, or I was just the adopted son. It's a pity that I have watched you grow up since I was a child and know that none of this is possible." Of course, this is because Zero has always been The reason why I don't have a boyfriend is not that I don't want to find one. The two strange brothers at home have made their faces tense, and almost no one dares to come to the door.Once this state reached saturation, Zero also felt that he should leave and travel so as to forget such troubles.
Even if they often make jokes like "Don't compete with me for inheritance rights", there is still such a problem in the family, but it is not the mainstream problem of the entire family. At least when Zero stayed at home, the two brothers did not show it at all.
She raised her head, retracted her little hand that was pinched quite painfully, and rubbed it carefully.
"If what you are doing at this time is to put your lips together, it will be the happiest thing this year. It is almost over, but it is the New Year, and you are not at home for almost half of the time." He smiled explain.
Although he said this, Zero was surprised to see him frown slightly, as if he suddenly seemed unhappy.While Zero was worrying about whether he had done something wrong, he had already left the bench.There was a brief moment when Zero didn't understand what was going on. There was a "ding" sound, the sound of sharp swords clashing together.
It's hard to imagine that there would be a sneak attack on this place, and it would be two nobles from the water elves?It seemed that the opponent was very powerful, and his rapier buzzed in the snowflakes.
The sneak attacker was also hit by such a powerful force and retreated into the shadows again. "I'm sorry, can you go to a safer place?" He said in a voice so small that only Zero could hear it, "Leave in the dim light and go back to the hall. You should have a partner to follow you. For the time being. You don’t need to worry about me anymore.”
"Go, are you stupid?" Seeing that Zero didn't respond, he said again, this time with a louder voice. "Don't be so self-righteous and stay away."
But there was no time to talk anymore, and the dark shadow, which was quite unclear under the moonlight, came up again, seemingly planning to kill him first.Zero subconsciously took a few steps back, but then he was completely at a loss.It happened that two people came out to talk, and they had to find a quiet place. It was just not far from the front hall of the castle, but it was quite difficult to detect any movement here, especially during such a lively time as the dance, everyone was busy Relax in joy.
Soon there were a few more dings and collisions, and even though the sparks from the collision flashed several times, they were too fast to see the face of the sneak attacker clearly.Ling only knew that looking at Yu Qi's almost losing his mind just now, that person must be very strong. Similarly, Ling also felt the pressure of suffocating as if his throat was being strangled.The sword light under the crimson moonlight looked quite strange. Every time the black shadow swung the sword in the moonlight, he would be forced to take a few steps back.Gradually, he retreated to the corner of the bushes where Ling was hiding.
"So, are you going to shout out now?" Yu Qi turned around and asked.It's really crazy to do something like this at this time.Especially the sneak attacker didn't seem to give him any chance, but he felt that if he shouted loudly at this time, the sneak attack would only last a little time, and it was impossible for both of them to die in such a short period of time. "Idiot, you are always a burden to me."
He changed the rapier to his left hand and shook his numb right hand, "What a bastard. When I threw you into the sea to feed the fish, you wouldn't have so many worries. Why am I so stupid? You big bastard."
Seeing this, Zero gave up his plan to use the elf. Not to mention the tacit understanding between himself and the elf, whether he could reduce such a short reaction time, just looking at the power, it was no longer something he could solve.Yu Qi is quite right, no matter what time, he is a burden.Even though he was sad, Zero was helpless in the face of this inexplicable emergency. Maybe after killing two people, the murderer would be found one day, but this thing had already happened, and there was absolutely no way to undo it.
This bastard sentence full of love and accommodation made me feel that even if I died right away, I wouldn't have any regrets.
"I'll give you a beautiful way to die, commit suicide." The black shadow spoke.
Ling was shocked.There was a flash of familiar feeling, and it was quiet for a while. The cold winter wind occasionally blew away the dark clouds, and the moonlight was bright enough to shine on the ground.It was a feeling of shame. "I'm sorry, brother." Zero lowered his head, "I think we can leave. Leave that guy alone, inexplicable."
At this moment, Zero completely lowered his guard. Perhaps for the few boys he knew, there was no need for any guard.Yu Qi was stunned for a long time and immediately understood what it meant.It's obvious that he also knows what the most important thing to do now is.
He put the rapier back into its scabbard and followed Zero.This thing is completely a decoration of the nobles. Judging from the dents on it, it is not a good thing. Even when it is put back into the scabbard, it feels quite unsmooth.
"Sister, did you just want to tell me that I don't need to worry about you anymore, or? No wonder you are so cold to me. It turns out that you have such a powerful bodyguard by your side. You don't have to ask me to help. You closed the stall."
"Brother...did you make such a joke right after the danger passed? I was worried to death just now." Zero interrupted him. If he continued like this, he would be complaining endlessly, "You know, at that time I almost I want to tell you that dying with you is the happiest thing in my life, but it’s a pity. We can’t die.”
"Should we go back now? Find that perverted bodyguard and provoke him severely. Maybe he will reconsider killing us because of his anger...?" Since it was a misunderstanding, it seemed that the solution to the matter would be quite easy.
Elsa had already walked out of the dance floor when the two people left, her face flushed, and she looked a little out of breath from spinning too many circles.She is different from Zero. After so many years of life, she has become quite accustomed to everything, including of course what a little aristocratic girl should look like when she is resting. Everything looks so real, even the slightest sound in the goblet. The swaying vermilion liquid is real red wine, not Coca-Cola like zero.
"Mr. Yuqi." She said with a smile, "I know I can meet you here. How are you doing?"
"Well, I was almost killed by the bodyguard of my lovely sister just now, but he still had a conscience and told me to commit suicide." Yu Qi put the cup up and touched it lightly, "So, when we meet, I just owe you a favor, and I have to thank you for taking care of her during this period of time."
"Are you sure you haven't done anything excessive to your sister? You usually tell me this?" Elsa pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh my god, Mr. Yuqi, why do you need to do this at this time?" I deliberately keep a distance from such a lovely sister. Since she is here, why don’t we ask her what she said? "
"Maybe if that guy doesn't show up, I will." Yu Qi's answer was quite direct, which also made Zero blush, "But, Lady Elsa, I am quite justified."
"I hope Lady Elsa will go back and talk to Mr. Bodyguard. I will stand in front of him and defeat him in the near future. Well, that's probably what I mean." He drank all the wine in the glass, "Well, Elsa Lord Sha, it’s almost time. I think I still have some things to discuss with the patriarch of the Yilan family. Please continue to take care of my sister. However, I don’t want this kind of thing to happen again. No matter what, I It's quite unacceptable to make a fool of yourself in front of her."
He patted Zero on the shoulder and said softly, "I'll wait for you at the gate of the temple tomorrow. It's compensation for today. You gave it to me."
"So, Zero. Is that bodyguard the boss or Fei's guest appearance?" After Yu Qi disappeared from the door, the miko turned around and asked, "This guy is crazy enough. He just left without asking anything. At that time, Isn’t it what your brother is doing to you?”
"Since you're asking like this, you should know it's Fei, right?" Zero pointed at Sora, who was doing nothing next to the miko, "Isn't your boss by your side?"
"This is just a dumbfounding misunderstanding. I also think Fei should give you a little space. As for the specific reason, you should go back and ask yourself, eh?" She said with a smirk on her face, "This little I will calm down the commotion, but the matter between you... When I was dealing with Mr. Yuqi before, he always mentioned you to me. Now it seems that I really believe why he is still single now. To be honest , I really envy you. If the boss treats me half as well, oh no, one tenth as good, I would be quite satisfied. Look at his expression like that."
"Okay..." Zero suddenly realized that he had accidentally picked up the wrong wine glass, and he felt shaky after drinking a glass of red wine.The entire dance today probably felt like this. My good mood disappeared completely under this false alarm. However, I felt that the warmth this false alarm brought to me was deeper than ever. .
"Fei?" Zero shook his slightly dizzy head, "It's because my brother squeezed my hand so much that it hurt. How can I put it..." She smiled bitterly, "Miko, if that's too much, As for things, well... maybe I should say thank you to Fei later. I am still very happy today."
"I lost my temper with Fei just now. Maybe I should go out and look for him. Well... wait until I wake up a bit." Zero said to himself.

() "Zero? You... bullied the boss? Why did I hear him calling you a beast as soon as I came in?" Just at this time, the miko opened the door and came in. (Please remember our website address) Although it seems that she knows the real reason, the miko has been much more cheerful recently than before, and the resentment in her eyes has faded a lot.
"Well, I ruined his..." Zero replied, "... his feelings. That's what he said." I remember that when we first met, the miko used this speech method that made people speechless. Just the paragraph before the pause, It makes people want to have a pot, although the truth is completely as plain as water.
"I thought you would be doing some shameful things there when you got up early in the morning." The witch let out a long sigh of relief, "But if we happen to be together, there is no need to go to the trouble of looking for you. The alliance headquarters sent an invitation this morning, and we will go there together in the evening. Would you like to go to the Christmas ball?"
"Sure enough, there is such a thing? Why can I go too..." Logically speaking, she should have no sense of presence in the temple, and she doesn't think anyone in the alliance knows that she is staying in the temple.
"Yes, three people were invited. Michelle Elsa Shiva, Michelle Lea Zero Moon Shiva, and Mary Fey Shiva. I'm not telling you that the Alliance Isn’t the intelligence network of the boss quite terrifying? How about you bring an entourage with you, or a family member, a dance partner, etc. Anyway, it’s up to you. I’ll come over and ask the boss to be my dance partner, so she owes me.”
"Miko, it's not what I said. The height difference between us..." Sora stretched out his hand and put it on the shoulders of the miko. "The height difference between us does not allow me to be your dance partner."
"Then just follow me." She replied immediately, "You have to come with me anyway. There is no negotiation. As for the identity of other birds, I don't really mind. Do you think you can refuse?"
"Okay." Seeing that he didn't respond for a long time, the miko said, "That's it, Zero, remember not to cause any trouble at night, at seven o'clock. If you need a dress, there is always something suitable for you in the temple. Yes. Well, remember your entourage, oh no, dance partner."
After the miko finished speaking, she looked at Sora fiercely and kicked her on the knee before slamming the door and leaving.
Zero turned his head and looked at Sora, hoping to get an explanation.
"Yeah, that's right." He replied perfunctorily, "If you want to go, go ahead. It's quite fun to go and have fun."
"I mean..." she explained, "the miko's kick just now was so classic, you didn't even dare to fart."
"Do you think it's quite classic? That guy is taking revenge. No one has paid her wages for so many years..."
"Excuses." Ling spread his hands helplessly, "You always have so many excuses anyway. Who knows how much you owe others, hey, I don't care about your mess. Then I'll go and go back to find a dance partner or something. "She originally wanted to imitate the miko and raise her feet to look at Sora's knees and kick them over, but in the end she didn't have the heart to kick them out. "By the way, Sora." After walking out of the door, she poked her head back, "Happy birthday, well, although it's tomorrow, I want to make it early. You're the Santa Claus in the middle of the night today, right? Don't get stuck in the chimney and you can't get out. coming."
"Dance partner?" Ayane lazily got out of the quilt, "You should consider asking Fei to accompany you. I think I am not suitable for wearing men's clothing. Well, everyone in the Basic Alliance knows my appearance."
"By the way Zero, did you take away my underwear this morning? I couldn't find it after searching for a long time, so I had to continue sleeping." She asked.
"Another excuse." She replied, "That's completely impossible. You just planned to sleep in. I don't blame you anyway."
"Michelia"
"Don't be numb." A wave of goosebumps arose, "Now the entire temple is a pink color. How come it suddenly turned like this? It wasn't cold before, but it still smells like this. It's really strange."
"After you left, Feiyu came here. She wanted to find you as a dance partner or something." Ayane said, "I heard that you went to find Sora, and you probably flew to the laboratory again."
"What did he do in the laboratory all day? I remember that he came back not long ago. Did he immediately know what he should do?" However, Zero thinks that the father and daughter should find more time to spend together, and It’s not like we meet in a hurry and then say goodbye.
"I don't know very well myself, so I'm too lazy to take care of him." Ayane replied, "That guy doesn't need to worry about anything. As long as you don't mess with him, there will be absolutely nothing. And he really has no intention of going there. What happened?"
"Okay then." Since Ayane said it was fine, it should be nothing. "I'm going to find Fei. If he refuses, I won't go today. In fact, I didn't plan to go in the first place. I just don't understand why the alliance knows that I am here..."
"Basically, as long as there is a slightly important person, the Alliance will do everything possible to collect all information, not to mention you, the princess of the Principality of Etalanti. They should probably know even if there is any evil intention..."
"Is it true?" If it is true... the feeling of chills on the spine is quite terrifying.
"You're kidding. After all, if I even peek at you when you go to take a shower, this alliance will have no standing at all. After all, it still represents the righteous party." Ayane replied nonchalantly.
Zero now always feels that the description of the righteous side is becoming more and more illusory.As the imaginary alliance gets closer to reality, the glorious image will be peeled off layer by layer, revealing the original appearance that is quite consistent with common sense.However, this appearance is incompatible with the righteous and glorious image. In other words, it is quite sad for a little girl who usually looks forward to the alliance.
She just smiled bitterly, looked at Ayane's face, pressed her back into bed, and walked out of her room.Ling planned to arrange things for the evening as soon as possible. If Feiyu found him before then, he might not be able to do anything all day long.It's not that training is a waste of time. In short, Feiyu can find all kinds of reasons to kill time, so that she can't take any free time.
If basic etiquette hadn't changed after so many years, I'd be happy to help.Fei had a rather indifferent attitude towards this invitation. She really looked like she had just come to the temple and was sitting in a pile of books every day.Zero knows that different people have different interests in reading, but the same thing is that as soon as they dive into a book, the time they spend will be endless.Now that he has agreed to this matter, Zero no longer dwells on anything. Since the last time he brought the elf to the library, the elder seemed to dislike him very much. Looking at his expression, Zero felt extremely disgusted. look.
"Nafei, I'm leaving first. Everyone will be waiting for you in the hall of the temple for seven days in the evening. You will have to leave in another half hour." She finally said.
Fei nodded and said nothing.After seeing this makeshift answer, Ling left without looking back. The hatred of the elders in the temple was terrifying. It seemed that everything became theirs, and all the rules must be done according to their wishes. Any disagreement or violation of those rules should be blamed.In other words, what is crazy about the temple is not just the actual members, but also the elders and even the workers are equally crazy.
Feiyu didn't come to the door, so there was nothing to do for the whole day.After Christmas is approaching, more and more guests come to the temple. Almost the nobles of Longdu will find some excuse to visit at this time. Some families have their patriarchs coming, and some have their eldest son or daughter. They are all great people, but Elsa's blank expression from morning to night shows that she is quite uninterested in these, and most of her so-called contacts are in a perfunctory manner.It is said that strength determines attitude. It seems so. The visitors still respect the miko quite a lot. Zero stayed in the hall for a day and encountered almost the same situation.
Naturally, the temple's treatment of guests is not as cold as expected, but it also does not accumulate such smiles.When she was free, she complained to Zero, "I'm really not in the mood to build some kind of power or conspire with a smile on my face."
It doesn't seem like she's not good at this, she's just simply unwilling or too lazy to think about it.Dragon City not only has a strong romantic cultural atmosphere, it is also the political center of this continent. As long as there are more powerful forces, there is always no shortage of people to curry favor with them.Flirting together naturally means discussing some small conspiracies and so on.Everything becomes boring after the test of time.The miko believes that if she loses those vague expectations in her heart, she will no longer have a reason to live.
"But, Zero. This is not something you should consider. I just need someone to listen to my sorrows occasionally," she said with a smile after complaining. "Looking at your dress, it fits you quite well. It looks like I would be a little envious, if only I were a little taller."
"I also wonder why there are such appropriate gowns in the temple," she replied.
"It's made according to Sophia's size." said the witch. "It fits you horribly. Look at Feiyu's figure, which is the same as mine. She looks like a child. In fact, I think... If I ask my boss to be my follower, will it embarrass him?"
Looking in the direction indicated by the witch, Fei Yu stood there with her face flushed with embarrassment and was at a loss.The so-called nobility, in addition to gorgeous clothes, must also appear quite noble in temperament and speech and behavior.The little girl who was used to wearing magician robes in the temple was really not used to them all now wearing formal clothes.In the story, according to the custom of dancing, there will always be some unexpected fate.It's just that with such a large group of people passing by, Zero himself doesn't have much hope. Besides, it seems that he doesn't need to hope anymore.Yes, nobles, I have never thought that these people around me are all well-established guys, and they can kill a whole group of people just by using any identity.
I remember Zero coming to Carlin's house for the first time.Like Sarah's family, they are both wealthy and wealthy, and the entire manor looks like a national park. Just when the carriage enters the main entrance, it has to go through a long forest path. After a slight bump for a while, you can see the old castle in the woods.At this time, the sun has almost disappeared from the west, and the crimson moonlight is slightly quiet.
The lively scene in the square at the front gate of the castle shows that this place is not the common impression that vampires and other races live in later stories, but the patriarch of the Yilan family lives here.Indeed, as a large Longdu family, the feeling of the manor alone is quite shocking.After all, the temple was on a mountain, but here it was on a plain. It was a rather subtle feeling. At that moment, Zero felt that the members of the temple were all mountain people.However, she endured this without letting any expression appear on her face. After all, looking at the temple like this was already blasphemy.
There was soft snow falling quietly in the sky. It seemed that most of the staff in the alliance were here, except for the host's daughter, Olivia Carlin Elan, who did not show up.According to Sarah, she was performing some dangerous tasks in some parts of the kingdom, and the reason for all this was just to avoid meeting a certain person.Just like when all the guests arrived but the host did not show up, Zero could clearly see that the expression on Sora's face was more than just a slight loss.
Entering the hall, Zero took off his cloak from his shoulders, lightly covered the snowflakes, and handed it into Fei's hands.The dance is just a simple process of communicating with each other and letting the host show something that should be shown.Zero casually grabbed a glass of red wine that he didn't recognize from the table next to him, and started wandering around the hall.This hall is not simply big. It is estimated that it can accommodate all the trainers working in the alliance. In addition, it can also provide a very beautiful dance floor, countless wine tables, and corresponding various drinks. Taste.
Fei had already been overwhelmed by the crowd. After that, Sora still stayed by Elsa's side obediently. Fei Yu didn't know where she was squeezed. However, those people were completely different. Something to worry about.Before coming here, Elsa once said that there should be nothing to worry about. Let yourself take care of yourself during the dance and don't let an unknown boy be kidnapped suddenly. Of course, the most important thing is not to be kidnapped. Which boy I don’t know.
Zero saw Sarah in the crowd, chatting and laughing with an old-fashioned old man.If what is the temperament of a young lady from a noble family, you can probably understand it by looking at Sarah at that time. Her completely appropriate speech and behavior, and every move she makes seems quite attractive.Just as imagined, the conversation was just a few token greetings, and then the person changed to another person.
After a while she also saw Zero.With a slight nod and a greeting to leave for a moment, Sarah walked towards Zero.
"It's a rare meeting, Your Highness Misseliya."
"Can't you have a normal conversation, Sarah?" Zero asked helplessly, "If you talk like a noble lady, I will be exposed within five sentences."
"I'm almost there too." Sarah said with a wry smile, "It was originally Karin who did it, but she was not here, so my uncle dragged me to this place to take my place temporarily. Etiquette is really a life-threatening thing, but it happens in front of people. You have to look serious." The two people sat down at the table next to them. "Look at the wine you have in your hand. Do you think you can really accept this? Ordinary girls should consider coke. If the boys in the alliance knew that the Princess Michelle Ya in their hearts was If you’re an alcoholic, they’ll be sad.”
After speaking, Sarah shook the goblet in her hand.A burst of bubbles suddenly popped up from the bottom. It was obvious that it was a glass of Coke, but it had the appearance of red wine. "I can only rely on this little cleverness to maintain the face of the so-called noble lady."
Zero put down his wine glass helplessly.In fact, when this cup was brought to my mouth not long ago, the strong smell of alcohol almost overwhelmed Zero.Now there was a step, so he walked down it and got a cup of something that looked like cola, before Zero put his lips to it.The last time the ball touched water, my throat finally felt a little bit.
"Well, I see it's quite hard for you. You have to chat with a lot of guests. In fact, you don't like doing this kind of thing, right?" What Ling asked was really nonsense. It wasn't something you didn't really like, right? What's the problem, but I really don't like it.
"Probably. The person just now is the patriarch of the Yura family. The two families will invite each other during this period of time within a year. This is the basic emotional exchange. It's okay to chat like this occasionally. I can take it. Don't you think he's the kind of guy who can't do anything?" Sarah explained, "Actually, the whole dance is very casual. If you want to say something more formal, you have to show off in front of the noble members."
"Speaking of which, the dress is very beautiful today. When I saw you, I almost dropped my wine glass and threw it to the ground. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and didn't reveal any mistakes. You know, you are wearing such a gorgeous dress today. , it is quite dangerous for a person to look alone at a dance."
"You also know that with so many people coming to the temple today, it is destined that I can only be left aside. Elsa also thinks the same as you. I am the most dangerous today, no matter what it is for me. , or to others." Even though this was a rather narcissistic statement, when Zero stood in front of the mirror and took a good look at himself when he left the temple, it was indeed shocking.Of course, it's shockingly beautiful, not weird.
"Then, I wish you have a good time today. Always remember to be restrained, if you don't want the whole dance to be too crazy." She stood up with a smile, "I have to go back to help uncle receive the guests, we will talk later."
At such a big ball, it was hard enough to chat with each of the visiting distinguished guests, not to mention Sarah didn't like such things.Zero was secretly glad that he didn't need to do such a thing.
However, after the dance started, Zero felt what real boredom was like.After expressing that he had no intention of dancing, Ling sat alone in a quiet corner in a daze, while Sora and Elsa had already turned countless circles to the music one after another. All he could do was I occasionally drink Coke or something here.In fact, it's not that I don't like dancing at all, but that Zero has no intention of learning it since he was a child. Only when he really needs to use it does he realize that knowing some dance steps is quite important.Although a trainer also saw the two guys spinning in circles with this lame dance move, Zero obviously didn't want to run out and embarrass himself at this time. The best choice was to stay in a corner where no one was paying attention.
Although it is said to be a corner that no one pays attention to, it is actually not very peaceful here.As soon as he calmed down from his chaotic imagination, a cup filled with strong red wine was already placed in front of his nose. The sudden strong smell of wine made him almost choke.She looked up at this boring guy and was completely taken aback.
"Can I ask you to dance?"
"No."
"How about sitting down and having a drink?"
"No."
"I don't mind if you continue to sip Coke from this glass," he finally said. "I will be embarrassed if I am rejected too many times, sister."
"Well, please sit down." Zero motioned for him to sit down on the stool next to him, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be enjoying yourself at home?" Finally, quite inadvertently, this troublesome person appeared once .If she didn't have to pay attention to her image in public, she would really go crazy.
"Of course you are here to attend the dance here. Well, if you happen to be here, I will consider selling you to a big family, which can at least bring a little benefit to our principality? Of course, it's been so long, you She’s much more beautiful, and to be honest, I’m becoming more and more reluctant to part with her. I’ve also been thinking about it lately, just be a little poorer and stay at home and raise it by yourself.”
"Are you really my brother? Why do you say such things when we meet? Okay, I admit that I will fight with you for the inheritance of the principality after I go back. Yes, I will bring my army back in a month and wipe out Aita. In the capital of Lanti, anyone who disobeys will be killed, and the shameless ones will be left to be skinned to make some armor." He made such a joke as soon as they met, and Ling took advantage of the situation and got into a fight with this guy.
"Okay, if you continue like this, you will call yourself a devil." He stopped talking, "How have you been these past few months? You have been traveling for such a long time and no one is pampering you. I thought you would think At home, it turns out you look quite proud. I really made a mistake. I wish I had tied you up at home. Yes, I am your brother Yuqi."
"Aren't you going to dance? You seem to be quite popular at ordinary times?" Zero asked him, "Today's situation should be the same. It won't be said that someone better than you appeared at the dance and compared you with others. ?" Ling asked. Most of the young men from noble families have the habit of showing off in front of the opposite sex. No matter who they are, they have a little bit of it.And this guy is probably free for this reason.
"The atmosphere here is a bit stuffy." He took Zero's hand and said, "Let's go outside for a walk. I think you'll be exhausted if you stay here for a while longer."
The two people walked around the ballroom from the edge of the hall, passed through the door and came outside.The sky has completely darkened, and then the sky is still a melancholy blue, with fine snow still floating in the sky. It has not changed since the day.However, after walking out of the hall, the air was indeed much better.Zero subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. It was quite uncomfortable to be alone in such a busy place.
Before he could say anything, he was hugged into a tight bear hug. If you want to know what it's like to be treated by an elder brother who has so many love sisters around him, this is probably the current situation. He is almost suffocating.
"Why don't you call home occasionally and try to get a little bit of information about you through the alliance's intelligence network all day long? That feeling is really painful." After a long time, he let go of his hand and held Zero's shoulder, "You You’ve lost a lot of weight in just a few months, don’t you know how to put on some weight after you leave home?”
"I'm sorry." Subconsciously, he didn't plan to call home. Although he wanted to find a reason, Zero didn't look for it at all. He just did it subconsciously.Even though it is a rather uncomfortable feeling, I always feel that I have forgotten something. When I follow my thoughts and search for it, what is waiting is a rather headache feeling.
"Don't worry, I just don't like the feeling of being forgotten, and neither does your elder brother." He gave a smile that he thought was quite gentle, "How about it, did you get shocked by me this time?"
"I'm used to it, there's nothing special about it." Sitting side by side on a bench in the park, Zero rested his head on his shoulder, "I thought you came here specifically to see me, but it turned out to be just a drop-in?"
"If I knew you were here, of course I would come here to see you." He replied, "Is it just as if you have done so many things without getting a little reward?"
"..." Zero lowered his head. If you take it seriously, there is absolutely no way to answer this kind of question.
"Forget it, no need to answer." He changed the topic, "I heard that you have been living in the temple recently. What is going on? I can't fully accept this yet. It has exceeded my original expectations. scope."
"It's just a coincidence...why is it beyond the expected range?" Zero has never seen this second brother say anything unexpected since he was a child. To a certain extent, he is still quite proud.
"If there is any dispute between each other, even if we are an alliance, it is okay to confront each other, but in front of the temple, I have no position at all." He replied a little helplessly, "I knew I should have said this to you when I left. Yes, after all, the two of us still feel that it is enough for you to stay with us. At this time, when we meet a power organization that is more powerful than us, we feel a little bit useless. "
He has liked to think of the worst of everything since he was a child, and through hard work has gained the ability to face the worst-case scenario. "It won't be like this." Zero didn't know what to say at this time.Staying by his side is another feeling that makes you melt away. This is one of the happiest things in the world.
"I often think about how great it would be if you were just the adopted daughter of the family, or I was just the adopted son. It's a pity that I have watched you grow up since I was a child and know that none of this is possible." Of course, this is because Zero has always been The reason why I don't have a boyfriend is not that I don't want to find one. The two strange brothers at home have made their faces tense, and almost no one dares to come to the door.Once this state reached saturation, Zero also felt that he should leave and travel so as to forget such troubles.
Even if they often make jokes like "Don't compete with me for inheritance rights", there is still such a problem in the family, but it is not the mainstream problem of the entire family. At least when Zero stayed at home, the two brothers did not show it at all.
She raised her head, retracted her little hand that was pinched quite painfully, and rubbed it carefully.
"If what you are doing at this time is to put your lips together, it will be the happiest thing this year. It is almost over, but it is the New Year, and you are not at home for almost half of the time." He smiled explain.
Although he said this, Zero was surprised to see him frown slightly, as if he suddenly seemed unhappy.While Zero was worrying about whether he had done something wrong, he had already left the bench.There was a brief moment when Zero didn't understand what was going on. There was a "ding" sound, the sound of sharp swords clashing together.
It's hard to imagine that there would be a sneak attack on this place, and it would be two nobles from the water elves?It seemed that the opponent was very powerful, and his rapier buzzed in the snowflakes.
The sneak attacker was also hit by such a powerful force and retreated into the shadows again. "I'm sorry, can you go to a safer place?" He said in a voice so small that only Zero could hear it, "Leave in the dim light and go back to the hall. You should have a partner to follow you. For the time being. You don’t need to worry about me anymore.”
"Go, are you stupid?" Seeing that Zero didn't respond, he said again, this time with a louder voice. "Don't be so self-righteous and stay away."
But there was no time to talk anymore, and the dark shadow, which was quite unclear under the moonlight, came up again, seemingly planning to kill him first.Zero subconsciously took a few steps back, but then he was completely at a loss.It happened that two people came out to talk, and they had to find a quiet place. It was just not far from the front hall of the castle, but it was quite difficult to detect any movement here, especially during such a lively time as the dance, everyone was busy Relax in joy.
Soon there were a few more dings and collisions, and even though the sparks from the collision flashed several times, they were too fast to see the face of the sneak attacker clearly.Ling only knew that looking at Yu Qi's almost losing his mind just now, that person must be very strong. Similarly, Ling also felt the pressure of suffocating as if his throat was being strangled.The sword light under the crimson moonlight looked quite strange. Every time the black shadow swung the sword in the moonlight, he would be forced to take a few steps back.Gradually, he retreated to the corner of the bushes where Ling was hiding.
"So, are you going to shout out now?" Yu Qi turned around and asked.It's really crazy to do something like this at this time.Especially the sneak attacker didn't seem to give him any chance, but he felt that if he shouted loudly at this time, the sneak attack would only last a little time, and it was impossible for both of them to die in such a short period of time. "Idiot, you are always a burden to me."
He changed the rapier to his left hand and shook his numb right hand, "What a bastard. When I threw you into the sea to feed the fish, you wouldn't have so many worries. Why am I so stupid? You big bastard."
Seeing this, Zero gave up his plan to use the elf. Not to mention the tacit understanding between himself and the elf, whether he could reduce such a short reaction time, just looking at the power, it was no longer something he could solve.Yu Qi is quite right, no matter what time, he is a burden.Even though he was sad, Zero was helpless in the face of this inexplicable emergency. Maybe after killing two people, the murderer would be found one day, but this thing had already happened, and there was absolutely no way to undo it.
This bastard sentence full of love and accommodation made me feel that even if I died right away, I wouldn't have any regrets.
"I'll give you a beautiful way to die, commit suicide." The black shadow spoke.
Ling was shocked.There was a flash of familiar feeling, and it was quiet for a while. The cold winter wind occasionally blew away the dark clouds, and the moonlight was bright enough to shine on the ground.It was a feeling of shame. "I'm sorry, brother." Zero lowered his head, "I think we can leave. Leave that guy alone, inexplicable."
At this moment, Zero completely lowered his guard. Perhaps for the few boys he knew, there was no need for any guard.Yu Qi was stunned for a long time and immediately understood what it meant.It's obvious that he also knows what the most important thing to do now is.
He put the rapier back into its scabbard and followed Zero.This thing is completely a decoration of the nobles. Judging from the dents on it, it is not a good thing. Even when it is put back into the scabbard, it feels quite unsmooth.
"Sister, did you just want to tell me that I don't need to worry about you anymore, or? No wonder you are so cold to me. It turns out that you have such a powerful bodyguard by your side. You don't have to ask me to help. You closed the stall."
"Brother...did you make such a joke right after the danger passed? I was worried to death just now." Zero interrupted him. If he continued like this, he would be complaining endlessly, "You know, at that time I almost I want to tell you that dying with you is the happiest thing in my life, but it’s a pity. We can’t die.”
"Should we go back now? Find that perverted bodyguard and provoke him severely. Maybe he will reconsider killing us because of his anger...?" Since it was a misunderstanding, it seemed that the solution to the matter would be quite easy.
Elsa had already walked out of the dance floor when the two people left, her face flushed, and she looked a little out of breath from spinning too many circles.She is different from Zero. After so many years of life, she has become quite accustomed to everything, including of course what a little aristocratic girl should look like when she is resting. Everything looks so real, even the slightest sound in the goblet. The swaying vermilion liquid is real red wine, not Coca-Cola like zero.
"Mr. Yuqi." She said with a smile, "I know I can meet you here. How are you doing?"
"Well, I was almost killed by the bodyguard of my lovely sister just now, but he still had a conscience and told me to commit suicide." Yu Qi put the cup up and touched it lightly, "So, when we meet, I just owe you a favor, and I have to thank you for taking care of her during this period of time."
"Are you sure you haven't done anything excessive to your sister? You usually tell me this?" Elsa pretended to be surprised and asked, "Oh my god, Mr. Yuqi, why do you need to do this at this time?" I deliberately keep a distance from such a lovely sister. Since she is here, why don’t we ask her what she said? "
"Maybe if that guy doesn't show up, I will." Yu Qi's answer was quite direct, which also made Zero blush, "But, Lady Elsa, I am quite justified."
"I hope Lady Elsa will go back and talk to Mr. Bodyguard. I will stand in front of him and defeat him in the near future. Well, that's probably what I mean." He drank all the wine in the glass, "Well, Elsa Lord Sha, it’s almost time. I think I still have some things to discuss with the patriarch of the Yilan family. Please continue to take care of my sister. However, I don’t want this kind of thing to happen again. No matter what, I It's quite unacceptable to make a fool of yourself in front of her."
He patted Zero on the shoulder and said softly, "I'll wait for you at the gate of the temple tomorrow. It's compensation for today. You gave it to me."
"So, Zero. Is that bodyguard the boss or Fei's guest appearance?" After Yu Qi disappeared from the door, the miko turned around and asked, "This guy is crazy enough. He just left without asking anything. At that time, Isn’t it what your brother is doing to you?”
"Since you're asking like this, you should know it's Fei, right?" Zero pointed at Sora, who was doing nothing next to the miko, "Isn't your boss by your side?"
"This is just a dumbfounding misunderstanding. I also think Fei should give you a little space. As for the specific reason, you should go back and ask yourself, eh?" She said with a smirk on her face, "This little I will calm down the commotion, but the matter between you... When I was dealing with Mr. Yuqi before, he always mentioned you to me. Now it seems that I really believe why he is still single now. To be honest , I really envy you. If the boss treats me half as well, oh no, one tenth as good, I would be quite satisfied. Look at his expression like that."
"Okay..." Zero suddenly realized that he had accidentally picked up the wrong wine glass, and he felt shaky after drinking a glass of red wine.The entire dance today probably felt like this. My good mood disappeared completely under this false alarm. However, I felt that the warmth this false alarm brought to me was deeper than ever. .
"Fei?" Zero shook his slightly dizzy head, "It's because my brother squeezed my hand so much that it hurt. How can I put it..." She smiled bitterly, "Miko, if that's too much, As for things, well... maybe I should say thank you to Fei later. I am still very happy today."
"I lost my temper with Fei just now. Maybe I should go out and look for him. Well... wait until I wake up a bit." Zero said to himself.
