Sid buried himself in the red scarf: "I will wait for you."

Kanas laughed.He pinched the bridge of Sid's nose, but he didn't stay strong, the son's nose turned red, and the corners of his eyes were clouded with mist.

"Go wild."

Cañas spoke softly, sat down in front of him, and handed him a packet of tinfoil.

Sid wiped the water from the corners of his eyes and tore off a corner of the tin foil.The hot aroma sprayed up his nose.

He blew on the food, took a small bite, and took a deep breath.

Kanas looked at the corners of his mouth and his flushed cheeks, and asked, "Is it delicious?"

"Ah."

Canias added, "It's monitor lizard meat."

This is not as simple as "Monitor Meat".Sid knew his roommate was a life-conscious person, and packed jars of condiments in his luggage before he set off.He added at least three seasonings to the meat.

The Son, who has never been very picky about food, was almost eaten by this man.Recently, he actually felt that the apple juice sold by the black pigeon was a bit too sour.

Sid hands Canas the tinfoil.

Kanas took it.He divided the meat into two portions and gave the smaller portion to the Son.

"Don't be too full for dinner, it's easy to accumulate food."

Sid nodded.He took another bite of the monitor lizard's flesh, put the tin foil on his leg, untied the scarf, and looped it around Kanas' neck.

The howling of the wind finally stopped.

The bonfire of the Xilin Mercenary Group was half extinguished, and the drunks who had come to provoke them before were dozing off in the tent.In the Heri Desert at night, there are often dark creatures roaming around, and a dozen mercenaries are patrolling nearby to prevent any wild beasts from invading.

From the perspective of veterans in the regiment, the night was eerily quiet.Heli is known as the horn of death, not just because it is just a stone's throw away from Zenia, the capital of dark magic—at night, it becomes a hunting ground for undead and demons.

Dark creatures have excellent perception of living animals.But they have a large number of people, but they have not encountered a single undead tonight.

If the Xilin mercenary group sneaked farther afield as sentinel archers, they would be surprised to find that the dark beasts trekking in groups like elephants coincidentally avoided their camp , He did not hesitate to detour the long way to the place where the next prey was.

In order to let his boy sleep peacefully, the abyss lord disguised as a man used his breath to drive away the same kind attracted by the fragrance of the Son of Light, and told them——

This is his snack.

Does not belong to anyone else.

Cañas is very thoughtful.But when he set up the tent and lifted the curtain, he saw Sid still sitting under the rock pile, his eyes were bright and he was not tired.

He asked, "Can't sleep?"

Sid shook his head.

It's been a long time since he needed to cuddle a bear to fall asleep.Staying in that apartment will make him feel very safe.

He just couldn't bear it, he didn't know if he would have a chance to see all this in the future.

Looking at the quiet starry sky, sitting with his favorite person in the desert that he has never set foot in.

Sid took this as his last trip.

It is a pity that the flowering period has not come this year, and neither the roses in Vera's greenhouse nor the hyacinths in their apartment have opened their buds.

He sighed.

A string of pleasant laughter drifted past Sid's ears.

"What a faithful knight..."

It was the voice of a grown woman.Sid was trying to identify the source of the sound, and Kanias moved a little into the void, and a circle of dark light from night bats spread out, scattering the magic lines floating in the sand.

"Witches' sound transmission magic is as famous as their prophetic poems." Canias said, "Don't worry about it."

Sid nodded thoughtfully, and Kanas poked him in the head.

A circle of sleeping spells lit up on his forehead, and his head was filled with sleepy bugs.

Sid scolded Canias in a low voice, and before the paladin had time to ask him, he fell drowsily into the man's arms.

On the night of the second day, the Xilin mercenary group arrived at their destination.

The old castle is located in the center circle of the desert, the surrounding magnetic field is disordered, and the compass is ineffective, so the well-informed locals can only rely on the well-informed locals to identify the direction according to the position of the sun.

A floating stone path connects the desert to Heli's Castle suspended in mid-air.There is a black reverse cross floating on the top of the gothic double-pointed coupon full of reliefs. Against the backdrop of the huge full moon behind it, it looks like a cemetery in the sky for demons.

As a reward for "escorting" the two to their destination, Gary, the leader of the mercenary group, asked Sid and Kanas to join the exploration team and assist them in healing the wounded.

The behavior of temporarily sitting on the ground and raising the price was already expected by Kanias. He claimed that his younger brother suddenly caught a cold yesterday and could not chant the spell of the healing code, so he could only stay outside the castle.

So fake, it's obviously a lie.

But after all, one's own side is in the wrong, and for first-class mercenaries, a healer who can silently cast low-level light spells is enough.Thinking this way, Gary reluctantly agreed to Kanas' compromise.

Sid stood waiting not far away, and saw Canias who had finished discussing with Gary come back and asked, "Is there any problem?"

When he said "no problem", he did not mean "no problem" of Cañas himself.

This is a magical species that even he himself needs to do his best and rely on luck to barely seal his ability.He has no concerns about Canas' personal safety at all.

He was only afraid that Kanas would not pay attention, and would treat the more convenient dark elements as relatively poor light spells, and the entire castle would become history by then.

Kanias smiled, and drew a large circle with a diameter of two or three meters on the ground with the tip of his sword, enclosing the holy child in the circle.

"Before I walk out of this door, I'm not allowed to step out of this circle. I can't be blown away by the wind." He said, "Otherwise, I'll leave you here, remember?"

Sid stood in the center of the circle and snorted softly.

... What does it mean to be blown away by the wind?

The mercenaries who were warned by Kanias last night did not dare to come forward to provoke.After waking up from the spirits, they knew very well that no matter whether it was the big one or the young one, they were characters they couldn't mess with.

To be able to live to see the sun today is already due to the mercy of these two.

I can't thank Dade too much.

When the iron boots and thatch-wrapped horseshoes of the entire mercenary regiment entered the witch's castle.All around suddenly quiet down.Some centipedes, insects, and snakes drilled out of the sand and stones, their dense eyes glanced at the human standing at the entrance of the stone ladder, and then burrowed into the ground.

In the circle drawn by Kanias, there are powerful runes that cannot be caught by the naked eye, like a hovering dragon, guarding against its treasures.

But Sid knew that it wouldn't be peaceful all the time.

Not long after, he saw a group of bubbles wrapped in dark elements floating from the distant castle, surrounding the circle.

He is no stranger to these bubbles.This is the sound transmission magic he encountered last night.

Standing in the circle without taking any damage, he moved to the edge and reached out to pop a bubble.

That ghostly female voice floated past his ears again last night——

"You value him very much."

Sid's heart skipped a beat.

Another bubble exploded beside him, bringing the witch's second sentence——

"Do you want to know the future of Cañas Alder?"

future……

He remembered a rumor about a necromancer witch he had heard from Kanias, and took a step back.

At this time, all the air bubbles dispersed, and the black powder formed a mirror-like transparent figure again.

Although it was just a conceptual membrane, Sid could tell that it was the undead witch Heli's uneven figure.

"Come out, please come here." She gently extended her hand to the Son standing in the circle, "I have no ability to hurt you, you know that very well."

Sid knew she was telling the truth.

There are not many dark creatures in the world that can actually harm him, and Heri is not one of them.Compared with Kanas, her breath is as weak as an ant.

Sid didn't come near.The witch's tone reminded him of the child traffickers Courteney had mentioned.

He stood there and asked, "What do you want?"

"I wish to make a deal with you. I promise you will like the information I have for you."

The Holy Son turned his back and did not look at her.

"Are you excited? The future of Cañas Alder—"

"Go away," Sid interrupted her, "or I'll send him over."

"I know, he accepted the Pope's mission and came to kill me." Henry's phantom said gently, and 1 gently swam up to him, "But your heart is moved."

Sid didn't speak, and the witch laughed inevitably.

"I can't count you two. Even if I eat you, but—"

Harry leaned closer to his ear and whispered something.

Sid glared at the witch who was smiling strangely.

He remained silent for a few seconds, then took Harry's hand and stepped out of the circle.

The moment Sid left the circle, the slender tentacles of the dark creature protruded from the edge of the arc and gathered towards his waist.Sid summoned an elemental elf to block the tentacles.

Sid felt the bone whistle heat up again.Hold your finger on the constantly sounding piccolo.

Just wait a minute.

he said in his heart.

Almost at the same time, on the bottom floor of the castle, among a group of mercenaries whose limbs were bitten by bats, Kanas raised his head and looked back faintly.

The Xilin mercenary group was still fighting with the skeleton guards at the bottom of the castle.After a hard fight, Gary finally killed the flying dragon guarding the corridor leading to the second floor.When he retracted his sword, he saw that tall and mysterious outsider walking past him expressionlessly.

arrogant.

He snorted coldly: "Outsiders, there is still a large group of wounded waiting for your treatment, how did you escape?!"

Kanas glanced at him: "Sorry, I can't play house with you."

Gary's eyes widened angrily.Kanas drew his saber, and sparks of metal collision lit up between the two.

The next moment, Gary's ashen-like face was reflected on the cold sword surface.

With trembling lips, he looked up at the man with a cold face, all the clamor was suppressed in his stomach.

He saw it.

Engraved on the hilt is a deer pattern totem.That was the emblem of the up-and-comers of the West, the Alder family.

Everyone in the Mercenary Union is too familiar with this symbol.The owner who wore this sword received the gold entrustment last year, and single-handedly went deep into the hot forest of the North Sea, wiped out the Rat Society, and beheaded the monster giant that people were talking about. No. [-] celebrity.

You know, even the Iron Rose, the most powerful mercenary group in the past, also encountered Waterloo there...

Such a famous person, he actually negotiated terms with him so arrogantly, and the idiots from their mercenary group went to molested his younger brother yesterday...

Gary immediately lowered his voice: "I apologize to you. I will kick those wastes who have overstepped you and your brother before from the mercenary group."

Kanias sheathed his sword: "No need. Just pretend you didn't see it."

Now there are more urgent things waiting for him to do.

Kanas gritted his teeth secretly.

That little one—the little kid who can't stand still when the wind blows, why is he so big-hearted and always dares to run away with strangers?

It was the same when he was in the Thiago Mountains last time, and he followed him to find Albert foolishly.

Shouldn't it be enough to follow him alone?

What a stupid bear.
