Dragon and knight Ji gl

After Sophie left, Leff looked at her back for a while, and then sat on the soft satin chair, holding the empty bag with her fingers resting on her cheek.The sun shone in the room and on the shepherd girl's brown hair, making her look a bit lonely.

Lev felt that something was wrong, she remembered that she wanted to say something to Sophie, but what was she going to say...

"Miss Knight." After a while, the female envoy in white robe quietly appeared.

Leif looked up, and the female envoy had a smile on her face, as if she had encountered something happy.Then he saw the egg-sized red bead in the hand of the female envoy: "What is this?"

Natia Vida handed the red bead to Leif, who took it and weighed it.

The touch is very familiar, similar to the feeling when touching the crystal nucleus of the Prophet giant beast - first the tentacles are cold, but slowly, the skin that touches will have a slight burning sensation: "Is this From His Majesty... from Noren..."

"Miss Knight guessed right." The female envoy interrupted Leif, "But this... let's call it the beast core, there is something very strange about it."

"What's strange?" Leff glanced at the female envoy, and then looked at the red animal nucleus, "This is obviously not a crystal nucleus, the size of the crystal nucleus is fixed, this one is too big."

"That's true. But logically speaking, there is no such thing at all." Natia Vida's golden eyes stared at Lai Fu's finger that moved the beast core. Seeing Lai Fu looking at it suspiciously, she explained "If an ordinary person swallows the crystal nucleus, the crystal nucleus will melt quickly, and it will disappear in a short time. Noren has already become a beast to that extent, and it is expected that he will not swallow the beast nucleus for too short a time. I noticed that Seeing that Noren's condition was a little weird, I checked his body, and I didn't expect to find this thing."

Although Natia Vida turned over Noren's body, her robe was still as white as new, without even a single wrinkle.The expression on his face was as if he just picked a small flower just now, and sat down beside Leif: "I think Miss Knight may be useful."

Leff nodded gratefully.

But according to her impression of "The Knight and the Princess", she has no memory of the description of the usage of this beast core.Of course it won't work on the inlaid machete handle-it's too big.She looked carefully again, and saw that there seemed to be an inverted pentagram engraved in the center of the beast core.

Leif then tried to see if the animal core could be peeled off. He only tried hard, but heard the sound of the animal core cracking open.

The cracks started from a point on the surface of the animal core, and gradually covered the entire animal core.Soon a red liquid oozes out.

After Natia Vida pulled Leif away, the beast core fell to the ground, and almost instantly, it turned into a blood-red powder.Leff felt the machete trembling behind him, so he pushed away Natia Vida's hand, drew the knife out of its sheath, and the machete sucked up the blood-red powder at once, just like steel attracting magnetic powder .

The difference was that the blood-red powder was instantly absorbed when it touched the machete.Leif found that the original cracks and small gaps on the machete disappeared at this moment, which means that this beast core can improve the durability of the weapon.The brown-haired shepherdess flicked the blade with her finger, and when she heard the crisp sound, she couldn't help but smile happily.

"By the way, Lord Natia Vida, I told Princess Sophie just now that she will not hold you accountable."

"Miss Knight is really considerate." The smile on Natia Vida's face deepened, and the tenderness in her eyes almost overflowed.

"This is what I should do." Leff took out the linen cloth to wipe the machete, and checked the blade against the light, "So, my lord, you can move back to your own residence with peace of mind."

The air stagnates for a moment.

The smile of the white-robed female envoy faded away, and she paused for a while before saying, "Miss Knight, I think you would like me to stay here."

"No." Leff shook his head, "I can take care of myself by myself."

The female envoy took her convoy back to move things back, and then Leif watched her turn back and leave in the four-wheeled carriage.After returning, Leif suddenly felt that the room was much empty.

The maid sent by the female envoy to take care of her daily life appeared at the door, knocked on the door a few times, and came in. She saw the famous knight girl bending over to sharpen her knife, and she hesitated for a while before walking in.

"Master Leif..."

Lev wiped off his sweat: "What's wrong?"

"You have been renting this courtyard for a month," the maid controlled her eyes, not looking at Leif's patched clothes, "Although there is a guarantee from Mrs. Natia Vida, it has arrived and must It's time to pay the rent."

"Oh." Leff put down the knife, then walked to the table, and rummaged through the inside pocket of the rucksack.Before leaving Ed's village, she had bought the old house that Grandma Samantha had left her, the sheepfold behind the house, the land with fruit trees and the vegetable garden, and took all the money she got from the sale and set off on the road. live frugally.After arriving in Jino City, there were few places to spend money, so Leff didn't pay attention to how much money he had left for a long time.

Laif spread out the remaining coins in his palm and counted, "One, two, three... seven silver geshas, ​​two copper geshas, ​​and a dozen iron geshas..." Counting, I was a little suspenseful, "How much is the rent?"

"Master Leif, the rent is one Kingosha." The maid looked at the brown-haired shepherdess worriedly and apologetically. Unbelievable look, "You have to understand, after all, this is a good location, and the yard is huge. In Keno City, the same rent is definitely not half as good as here. In addition, there are food, water ..."

Leif clutched the last of her geza coins, finally understanding what the envoy had meant when she said "I think you'd like me to stay here".And when Sophie took away the wool, why did she suddenly have such a strong feeling of reluctance.

If it is possible for her to make a fortune by using the method of "this is the princess's wool, it is sold in a limited number, one for each Kingosha"—in fact, a few days ago, several wealthy merchants in the city with a special collection hobby asked her A higher offer was made, but Leif turned it down—after Sophie took her wool, Leif had nothing left.

She looked at the maid with an apologetic expression, who hesitated to speak, and felt a chill in her heart.

——not only have nothing, but also owe a debt.

"Excuse me, where is Princess Sophie?" Lively held a maid who came out of the palace.

The maid did not answer, but looked at the palace gate.

The princess' car was coming out of the gate of the palace.

Leif hurriedly followed, and before she had time to stop, the four-wheeled carriage used by the queen had already gone away quickly.

So the poor shepherdess had no choice but to use her only two legs to chase the four legs of the best horse in the kingdom of Isaiah, which has always been famous for its war horses in the continent of Deya—but after a few Still lost after a block.

Intuitively, Leif walked towards a secluded alley, and saw the four-wheeled carriage parked outside the half-closed door.

This is a clean but somewhat decaying courtyard. It can be seen that the new people who moved in have worked hard to re-organize the courtyard.There were more than [-] guards standing outside the door. Although they were wearing casual clothes, it could be seen from their upright posture and well-trained and neat steps when standing guard that these people were undoubtedly palace guards.

But Leif didn't know why the palace guards guarded such an inconspicuous small courtyard, let alone why Sophie came here.

Laif leaned over, avoiding the guard's surveillance.Climbing up the tree outside the courtyard, he climbed up the wall a few times, and then landed quietly. After straightening his bent knees, he ran towards the inside.

When passing a square pavilion, Leif stopped.I saw two blond girls, one big and one small, in the kiosk by the water—one of them was Sophie, and the other had a strange face.If Leif hadn't known that Sophie was the only daughter of the old king, she would have thought the other girl was Sophie's sister.

Sophie sat quietly, her green eyes with curly eyelashes blinking, her two little hands obediently placed on her knees, letting another girl gently comb her long golden hair with an ivory comb—— It was the first time for Leif to see Sophie so cute and quiet.

It is inevitable for the shepherdess to feel that her own sheep have been plucked by others.

The taller girl seemed to notice something and looked in Leif's direction.

——Although the face was unfamiliar, the gentle look on the face, as well as the somewhat weak pale complexion, still made Leif feel an unreasonable guess.

Sophie felt the movement in her head stop, and asked, "What is Sister Listinger looking at?"

"Sophie." Listinger said, "Look who's here?"

The author has something to say:

I didn't expect the heroine's first nickname to be Laifu emmmmmmm
