Tread.

The sudden appearance of two short steps is different from the order of normal people's stepping steps getting bigger and bigger. Such short steps are closer to the actions taken for assassination, but the last two exposed sounds are not so much the result of the assassination failure. It's more like trying to let the other party hear clearly.

Habitually covering up the sound of footsteps, there is probably only one family in this world.

Walking in the corridor of a villa, Siternokana calmly turned his head and looked at the intruder who broke in through the window.

"Empirifou, what are you doing here?"

"According to the secret order of the emperor of the Empiri family, come to collect the divine sword."

"You are really direct."

The bright green eyes are like the experimenters of the laboratory, keeping an observation eye on Kano's whole body.

"If possible, can you stop staring at me?"

Kano crossed her hands on her chest, avoiding Feng Ao's eyes with a slightly ugly face.

"Why not?"

"No... To be more precise, why are you looking at others so rudely?"

"Is that so?"

On the other hand, Feng Ao asked Kano, and Feng Ao still stared at the other party without missing the opportunity, until it was nearly 1 minute before slowly withdrawing his gaze.

"This can be used as a reference."

"……refer to?"

"Mastering the magic sword will change your speech and personality. For example, you invited me to join your mercenary team in the past, but now you have no such intention at all. Besides, your eyes and hair color have also changed to a considerable extent."

Hearing the word "Magic Sword", Kano immediately showed a dignified expression on his face.

"Let me make it clear first, this is my original appearance, and don't always look at others with observation eyes."

"Is it because you have a similar experience that you don't want others to pay attention to your gaze?"

Kano frowned with original seriousness, faintly displeased.

The leader of Bupo regards Jieshi as a criminal, so the secret about Xitnuo will naturally be publicized as the blood of the devil to everyone, especially the Empiri family, who are intelligence experts, will definitely give everything to the public. know.

"If you're just here for provocation, then please take away the divine sword and discuss the future with the kingdom of swords."

As if unyielding to fight back against Feng Ao's provocation, Kano's words are full of ridicule towards the kingdom of swords.

It's just that Feng Ao's face didn't even look affected at all.

"I thought you would insist on keeping this Excalibur."

"No, borrow and repay, this is one of the basic norms of intelligence transactions."

After saying these words, Jia Nai tore off the divine sword on his waist, and casually threw the divine sword that everyone wanted to Feng Ao.

Click.

Catch the Excalibur and quickly put it under the cloak, completing the task easily.

"Why don't you leave yet?"

However, Feng Ao did not leave obediently but stood still.

"curiosity."

"Curious, throw this kind of thing away quickly. If you still want to keep the status of the Empiri family, you should hurry back to the leader of Bupo to discuss the next battle. Otherwise, he may openly insult Empiri in a fit of anger. family and then targeted criticism.”

Completely different from his usual gentle and calm image, Bupo is not such a person in Feng Ao's memory, at least he openly criticizes and insults in meetings, Bupo's character should be patient.

Deducting Kano is just casual talk, the biggest possibility is that Kano is more familiar with the leader than Feng Ao.

"You seem to be very familiar with Chief Bupo."

"If you want to know even such a trivial matter, please investigate it yourself. Are you an intelligence expert?"

"Indeed, for such a small matter, please ask the troops to investigate slowly."

"Then please leave."

"Not yet."

"what?"

"I still need to observe the risk of being insulted by the unbreakable leader."

"What the hell are you talking about—"

"I met Jieshi."

Quickly blurted out from Feng Ao's mouth, the expulsive atmosphere dissipated immediately, and the tranquility, dead stillness, and the quietness that almost disappeared with breathing enveloped the two of them.

"I see."

I saw Kano let out a breath slowly, originally wanting Feng Ao's aura to change, the slightly guarded expression disappeared, and walked a few steps lightly to the window, looking at the heavy rain and the sky with a lot of dragons flying, deliberately turned her back The gesture muttered.

"He really trusts you."

"The kingdom of swords and the kingdom of magic, the long-standing war is impossible to end like this. Even if we cooperate now, the future will inevitably be broken due to the distribution of resources."

"Well, I feel the same way now."

"Then why do you still do it?"

"Why? Maybe it's because the me in the past, who still thought that I was strong with the blood of Citron, could turn the world around with my own hands?"

"Even if you can forcibly break through the limits of your body, it doesn't mean you are invincible."

"But my father did change the future of the Kingdom of Swords in the past? He alone fought against the large army of several families in the Magic Kingdom, allowing the divided Kingdom of Swords to merge smoothly."

"So he died because of his own complacency and arrogance."

"It hit the nail on the head."

"This is a fact."

"When a person's talent and ability surpass that of ordinary people, he will naturally be expected. Sometimes even if he wants to hide his strength, it is impossible to live the life of an ordinary person, just like the previous Jieshi."

"He was recommended by the previous leader to be the captain."

"So he was highly anticipated by the previous chief, wasn't he?"

"..."

"Me too, the previous me has always been highly anticipated, but what is different from Jieshi is that I believe that I will be able to rely on the trust of pure friendship and the glory of the swordsman, and rely on the efforts of my own hands to reverse the bad situation between the two countries... The result So far, I don’t even have the right to worry about others. The two of us chose different lives, and the final result is what we are now. Ms. Fengao, what do you think a person who is born with talent needs to be happy? ?”

Just looking at Kano's back, accompanied by words revealing the loneliness of being alone.

Feng Ao didn't intend to give sympathy, because according to the information given by Jie Shi, it faintly showed that a large part of the reason for the current situation had something to do with the woman in front of him.

"I don't know how happy you are, but you have involved Jieshi, everything about him."

"Well, I won't say that I am not at fault, on the contrary, it is reasonable to say that it is all my fault."

"I won't complain if I kill you now, right?"

"No, but I can't die."

"It's like what a king would say before he dies."

"...The king will say that he is for the country, right?"

"You too? For this village."

"Well, yes, whether it's me before or now, I would say that, but there is still a little difference."

"What's the difference?"

"In the past, I was purely for the world, but now... Jieshita, I hope to be able to empty my head freely and live a leisurely life...I want to create this world—do you believe this reason?"

The figure with his back turned could not see the expression at this moment, his thin body only appeared emaciated and weak, as if he had accepted the world without feeling much sadness and anger.

This appearance made it difficult for Feng Ao's original anger to vent smoothly.

"Receive the Excalibur, the mission is over."

After a long silence, Feng Ao still couldn't continue to speak to the woman in front of him, and finally turned around and prepared to leave.

"If you meet Jieshi again, please tell me that Xiaoyan and Xiaoya are safe."

tread.

Just after taking a step, Feng Ao received this unexpected information.

"Why is the head of the Ice family here? And it's He Xiaoya."

"That was her choice, too."

"Even if you come here temporarily, it's still too stupid to give up your duties as the head of the family for a while."

"But I'm envious of her choice."

"...The threat from the Feng family, Xiaoya can no longer return to the Magic Kingdom."

"Who knows about that?"

"..."

"May I ask a question? Consider it an intelligence transaction for me to tell you these things."

"..."

"About Xiao Yan and Xiao Ya, Jie showed his special attention. What kind of relationship do they have?"

"There is no special relationship. They are just pure friends. They met a few times and then relaxed and chatted. The relationship of ordinary friends."

Kano froze her body, unable to digest Feng Ao's answer at all, but after a few seconds, her mind was absorbed and thinking about the reason and meaning of it.

Instead, let go of it.

"That's right...it's because it's such an ordinary relationship that you want to protect it even more?"

Because Jieshi is such a person, he can give up even himself to help others.

tread, tread...

Realizing that he and Xitanojia couldn't say any more boring words, Fengao quickly moved to another window, and finally squirmed his lips.

"If you want to tell Jieshi about Xiaoya and Xiaoyan, tell Jieshi yourself."

tread.

After saying these words, Feng Ao disappeared from the corridor into the heavy rain.

"But... really? Do you think I still have the qualifications to talk to Jieshi?"
