I Live Forever in Memory

The birds in the forest were startled by the shout and flew away. The fallen leaves fell on his head and shoulders, and Li Lin became a little more awake.Gritting his teeth, he turned around to go, took a step but stopped again.

Is that really me?

"damn it!"

He suddenly turned around and ran towards the mountain, towards Roswaal's mansion!

That's right, no matter what you think at this time, you should run away, as far away as possible!Find a way to improve your strength, crack the power of the High Sin Bishop, and then take revenge!Yes, that is the most rational way!

"But I don't want to do that..."

Running wildly, the mood of wanting to leave time behind has become so urgent at this moment.The sound of the wind, the sound of birds chirping, and the sound of dead branches being trampled underfoot all add to this mood of urgency.

It's getting closer, the burning mansion is in front of you, Li Lin didn't feel anyone's aura, whether it was lust and gluttony, or Rem and Ram, all disappeared...the original ones on the ground... also disappeared , It seems that someone cleaned the scene.

He walked blankly on the gray and black ground, and he knew that he caused all these. The fire he made not only burned himself completely, but also turned the lawn into scorched earth.

"What about people..."

They all left, where they went, I don’t know.

The footsteps stopped suddenly, and the early morning sun fell on the object on the scorched earth. Li Lin knelt down and picked it up carefully.

It was a short knife with a strange shape, and there were still wet bloodstains on it.

That was all that was left, he realized suddenly.

……

King's capital.

"He won't come." Natsuki Subaru looked at the time, and said to Emilia on the side: "It's already noon, and he made an appointment with you in the morning, right?"

"..."

Emilia glanced at the door of the tavern. She was still wearing a magic weapon cloak to hide her figure.As Nayue Subaru said, the appointed time has passed for a long time, and Li Lin still hasn't come.

There were people coming and going at the entrance of the tavern, but the person she was waiting for never appeared, and her palms were unconsciously clenched.Obviously I came on time last time, but this time... I don't want to preconceive that he forgot or something, but the more this happens, the more I can't help but think that he once lied to me once.

That time, it could be said that he lied to her because he wanted to get away, but what was the reason this time.Emilia, who was thinking this way, fell into deep thought, but at this moment, the discussion in the tavern made her unable to stay.

"The Mezzas leader is messed up."

"Yeah, I also heard from the business group who just came over there that even Mr. Border Boss's... were burned..."

"So messy?! Could it be that the people in his territory—"

"Isn't Lord Frontier the chief magister? Who can..."

"Feel sorry!"

A sudden voice interrupted their words. It sounded like a silver bell. They thought it was a young girl, but when they turned their heads, they found that it was a man with an ordinary face. They were extremely disappointed.

"What you just said is true?!" The man looked anxious.

"Yes." One person said, "It's all from the businessman who just came over there."

"Can you tell me the details?"

"Details? We don't know." The man thought for a while, "I know that there seems to be some trouble on the Mezzas Ridge, and then the mansion of the border uncle was also burned, and we don't know about the rest. "

"……thanks!"

Emilia immediately ran out of the tavern, and Natsuki Subaru followed her, and asked at the moment, "Shall we go back now?"

"Well! I don't know what happened, we have to go back immediately!"

"Roswaal doesn't know where he went, his own house was burned and he still hasn't shown up?"

"..."

Emilia was so anxious at the moment that she was almost restless.She didn't know what happened at all. As the easternmost region of the mainland, Mezas Ridge could not be attacked by other countries.So why there was a riot? Was it because Roswaal announced her support for her half-elf?If this is the case...you have to face it yourself!

Emilia took a deep breath, strengthened her mind, and immediately took Natsuki Subaru back to the hotel she was renting.

Along the way, she couldn't help but think that if Li Lin hadn't written an invitation this time, she should have returned to the territory two days ago.In that case, this turmoil should happen just in time...Combined with the fact that Li Lin didn't show up this time, did he do it on purpose?Are you trying to trick me into keeping me here?what is the reason?

Emilia shared her guess with Subaru Natsuki, and the latter blurted out in astonishment: "Could it be that he just wanted to attack the mansion while we were away?"

"……No way."

Emilia couldn't think of any reason for the latter to do that, and besides, what was the benefit of avoiding their attack on the mansion?Both Rem and Ram are innocent, and Roswaal, who is the border boss, also left for something... She couldn't think of what she could get by doing so.

"I don't think so. Anyway, we'll find out what happened when we go back quickly!"

After returning to the room and packing up their things, Emilia and Natsuki Subaru rented the earth dragon and left quickly.She thought, if Nayue Subaru told the truth, then she would never trust Li Lin again... However, after that conversation, she felt the other party's sincerity, and she felt that he would not be able to Someone who does that kind of thing.

The two of them went out of the city gate, but they didn't expect to run into a group of troops coming back soon. Among them were people she knew very well, and the people on the opposite side also recognized her in disguise. They approached the former and asked, "You guys This is--"

The person who was questioned was Priscilla sitting in the carriage. The latter glanced at her, his attitude was not very friendly, and the words he said were not very pleasant, "You have been here leisurely for a few days. I want my concubine to help you clean up the mess of your supporters."

"What do you mean?!" Emilia couldn't understand. She didn't have any influence in the royal capital, so she had very little information, which was incomparable to other candidates.Take this white whale crusade as an example, as one of the candidates for the Dragon Priestess, she didn't even know it happened.

"Hmph... Is that guy's request to my concubine for you? I really don't know what he thinks."

After Priscilla finished speaking, she drew down the curtain, and stopped talking to Emilia, but Al, who was riding on the dragon next to her, said friendlyly, "Lord Emilia, don't worry. The witch who attacked the village The members of the church have been repelled by me, and Li Lin has also passed by the mansion, so there should be no problem with his strength."

"Witch Cult!?"
