Black Blade City is divided into inner and outer areas. The nobles with good looks and capable and decent people live in the inner city, while those without that ability live in the outer city. The houses here are low, the streets are crowded and dirty, and it looks far worse than the inner city. The city is much more lively.In the morning, during the fair, Vera and Tails mingled with the crowd, wandering around amidst the subtle smell of the sewers.

Tails carried a rattan box on his back, and he threw in any new gadgets he liked, and Vera followed him to pay.

They have been in the outer city for nearly half a month.

After meeting Miria, Vera didn't bother to settle accounts with Tailan and Tailan, and left Tailan's house overnight, took Tailan to the outer city, and found an inconspicuous family to live in after carefully disguising. down.

On the third day after he left, he received a summons from Tai Lan-the Special Executive Office sneaked into his mansion at night to search for Vera's whereabouts.The tireless fighting puppets and magic circle told Tailan all this, but Tailan and Novella stayed quietly in the bedroom, tacitly knowing this.

At the same time as this news came, there was also the negotiation result conveyed by Novella—after careful consideration, Duchess Daisy rejected Vera's deal.Seeing that there is no way to ask for help, Tyran once again suggested that Vera return to the Semorel family, but Vera also firmly rejected him.

Tails was worried.Although he doesn't know much about the social structure of human beings, he still understands that it is very difficult to take back the tower of Vera and take revenge on those armies.With the power of themselves and Vera, and even Tyran, they might be able to get revenge on individual guys, such as the stripped bishop, maybe even Tufet, but they can't take back the tower, and don't kill my town.

He talked to Vera seriously about it, trying to figure out what the hell the mage was up to, and whether he had any trump cards in the box, but Vera acted like nothing happened, almost as if he had given up on revenge.He took Tails to live in the outer city with peace of mind, living a leisurely life while avoiding searches—just like now.

Vera and Tails were temporarily unable to show their true colors, but this did not bother them.The rattan basket behind Tails was full of weird things. While he was playing with a small windmill, he deftly avoided the crowd, shaking the windmill from time to time to make it spin fast.As he passed a shop, he stopped suddenly.Vera, who followed behind him with a dull head, almost bumped into him. After standing still, Vera followed Tails' line of sight, and instantly understood why Tails stopped.

A string of colorful glass wind chimes hangs at the entrance of this shop. The sun shines on the glass carved into various flowers, reflecting the dazzling brilliance, and whenever a gust of wind blows, the crisp bells come through the hustle and bustle , fell into their ears.

Vera tugged on Tails's sleeve, and whispered in his ear: "My dear Tails, if you keep looking at it like this, I will be jealous of the string of wind chimes."

Tails stared intently at the wind chime, admiring the charming brilliance of the sunlight jumping on the glass.Hearing Vera's words, he replied casually: "Of course, despicable mage, it looks much better than you."

Immediately afterwards, the despicable mage appropriately displayed his despicableness, "My dear Tails, don't forget whose money you spent."

"Tylan's."

"Tylan gave me money."

Tails withdrew his gaze, unceremoniously took out all the silver coins and copper plates from the pocket of the mage's coat, stuffed them into his own pocket, and announced, "Now it's mine."

"Tals, you are robbing."

"That's right, it's useless for you to break your throat. Or are you going to tell the security patrol?" Tails sneered, "They want you to come to your door."

After speaking, he ignored Vera and approached the door of the shop.

Vera watched his back with a smile in her eyes, and followed him to the string of wind chimes.

The shopkeeper who sold the wind chimes was a thin and thin man with a bitter face, and his smile was no different from crying.He nodded and bowed down to accept the two silver coins, wrapped the wind chime carefully, and handed it to Vera and Tails.

The moment Vera took the box, the little man acted.Using the cover of the box, he slammed his palm against Vera's lower abdomen, trying to cast the spell he had prepared for a long time.

He also acted at the same time as Vera.The moment the little man's palm was about to stick to his stomach, he grabbed the box containing the wind chimes, and dragged Tails towards the gate.The door closed silently at some point, and six masked mage-dressed people poked their heads out from the messy counters of the shop, aiming their wands at Vera and Tails.The power of magic sizzled, and the air was filled with a sense of oppression that made hair count down.

Seeing this situation, Vera and Tails understood that they might not be able to withstand the impact of the six spells.Tails twisted the little man's hands behind his back with one hand, and strangled his neck with the other hand, almost lifting him up to block Vera, threatening viciously: "Don't move!"

The little man was breathing hard, trying to break free from the deadly shackles. Even from a long distance, he could hear the rattling of his bones.

Vera showed a clear smile, and said sweetly: "Gentlemen, put your hands down, otherwise I won't guarantee what will happen." He pointed to the little man, "You may not be able to hurt me, let alone I have Good shield."

As they spoke, they held the little man hostage and slowly approached the shop door.

In the tense atmosphere, Vera easily broke the spell on the gate, and exited the gate together with Tails.There was silence outside the door. Dozens of heavily armed and masked guys surrounded him regardless of the little man's safety.The darkness permeated, and amidst the pungent stench, Vera threw several bolts of lightning, rushing through the gap.

"Despicable mage! I knew it would be no good to follow you." Tails complained, smashing the little man at the pursuers, and followed Vera to the distance.

The flame arrow summoned by magic roared along with the paralysis. Vera easily waved her hand behind her, forming an invisible barrier behind her, changing the direction of the spell.Tails threw an invisible net behind him, hindering the pursuit of soldiers.Soon, they rushed out of the street and joined the bustling crowd.

They ran through the crowds and down the narrow alleys towards the edge of the outer city, with their pursuers at their heels.Vera and Tails were scruples about the crowd, and it was difficult to cast powerful spells, and the same was true for the pursuers.The opponent has many mages, and they are as difficult to deal with as brown sugar. They have not been able to get rid of their pursuers.When he was about to reach the edge of the outer city, Vera stopped suddenly.

Tails rushed a few steps, turned back, and asked, "Despicable mage, what's the matter? You can't run anymore? I said you lack of exercise..." In order to prevent the newly bought things from getting lost, he kept holding him tightly. The rattan basket that was originally carried on the back, and I haven't forgotten to cast a fixation technique on it.

Vera stared at a point that didn't seem to exist, and said softly, "Tals, do you feel it?"

"Feel? What does it feel?"

"Be still, feel it quietly, the vibrations of the air and the earth."

The sense of the human form is not sharp, Tails closed his eyes, spread his consciousness, and felt the changes around him with all his strength.After a while, he held his breath and asked Vera: "This is?"

Vera nodded: "That's right. Tails, time is running out. You go tell Tylan, and he will take measures. Also, let Novella inform Daisy and everyone she can contact."

The pursuers were getting closer, and Tails could already hear their deliberately light footsteps.He frowned and asked Vera, "What about you?"

"I?"

"Where are you going?"

Vera smiled, and replied as a matter of course: "Is there a need to ask? Of course, I will go to the person in charge of the security of the capital."

"You should go home?"

"No, I'm going to the mansion of Duke Manding. That old stubborn man is on vacation today, so he probably won't go out."

"Don't think I don't know." Tails said angrily, "He just wants to drive you away, you won't see him at all. And, dare you say that the suspicious guys behind have nothing to do with him ? That little carrot head has the badge of the Special Operations Service in his pocket, don’t think I didn’t see it.”

"My dear Tails, you really underestimate me." Vera narrowed her eyes with a smile, "Hurry up and find Tylan, I have a solution."

The pursuers were already approaching, Tails looked at him and nodded deeply.

Vera beckoned to him and ran on, and he quickly climbed the wall and disappeared between the roofs.

Tails unceremoniously brought down the three pursuers who rushed too fast, and ran towards the inner city amidst howling.
