Dragon and knight Ji gl

"Miss Knight," the pale queen stood up with some difficulty, stretched out her hand to Leif, and said apologetically, "I really envy you, you can go around alone. If it weren't for my poor health, maybe Don't bother you to go through life and death for me."

The quasi-knight knelt down on one knee, took the young queen's hand and kissed the back of it, respectfully said: "I would like to serve you allegiance. The direction of your heart is the direction of my sword."

After finishing this set of movements and saying a set of words in a smooth manner, Leif received a few surprised looks.

The quasi-knight had a stern face and pursed his lips tightly.

——In the story of the priest, every knight said similar words and did similar actions when they met the princess.Some are even more verbose than that.She rehearsed the scene many times on the road.

——Could it be that there was a step she didn't do solemnly?

solemn.Natia Vida thought to herself.Perhaps too dignified.

"Oh, you're so cute." Sophie helped Leif up, then hugged her waist, threw herself into her arms, raised her face, and said seriously, "I believe you can finish it." My wish."

The queen's body smelled of white hyacinth, and Leif felt that she was like a light and fragrant white flower.I can't help thinking that Lily gave her such a gentle and soft impression when she hadn't shown any bad habits.She quietly reached out and touched the end of the queen's hair, which was softer than wool - in fact, she wanted to touch it when she just walked in.

The female envoy coughed lightly, and cast a concerned and somewhat stern look.

Leff withdrew his hand quickly and calmly.

Only then did the young queen realize her gaffe, her face blushed, and she moved back to the armchair that was too high for her, her feet swayed a few times under the cover of the skirt: "That's right, here's what I want to ask Miss Knight..."

At this time, heavy footsteps suddenly came from outside the hall.

After guessing the identity of the visitor, the young queen sat up straight from the armchair.

The door of the temple opened suddenly, with a "creak", a ray of light shot in from outside the door.

In the bright afternoon sun, a man walked in.Tall and crowned, with blond hair, deep blue eyes, and a resolute square jaw—it was evidently Noren Robertson, the new King of Isaiah at the moment.

Behind Leif, the blood on the young queen's face completely disappeared.Looking at the person coming at the door, there was a bit of fear in the green eyes, and she subconsciously looked at Natia Vida.

"My queen is getting weaker and weaker." The new king gave Sophie a loving look, and then turned to the shepherdess standing aside.

The shabby clothes stood out against the expensive oriental carpet on the ground, and the stiff movements during the salute showed that this girl probably didn't have many opportunities to meet nobles before.

Noren knew that this was undoubtedly another rogue commoner who wanted to rely on the queen's notice to ascend to the sky, so he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

"Listen, little girl." The new king walked up to Leif, pinched her neck, and lifted her up from the ground.The new king didn't have any scruples about the possible consequences of crushing a pariah, so he didn't save his energy, "I don't care if you are a magician, a funny entertainer, or a poor knight."

Leif wasn't quite used to the sudden vacation, and he grabbed the king's hand that was pinching his neck with both hands.The two feet kicked in the air, trying to find a place to borrow strength.She suddenly wanted Lily to show up here and kick the king's ass.

I heard a cold voice coming from my ear: "This is not a game. Since you have accepted this task, you must complete it steadily. If you give up or fail, you must bear the due consequences. Please Allow me to remind you that the last magician who received the imperial edict, as well as the former burlesque performers, the whole circus... because of their inappropriate prejudgment of their abilities, they made promises beyond their abilities, and now It has been thrown into the deepest snake pool in Jino City Prison."

Leif was pinched so much that she almost rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue, before the new king put Leif down.

After that, he wiped his fingers with a handkerchief, and threw it on the ground.

He looked at the young queen worriedly, then put his hands on her shoulders, leaned over and said: "My noble queen, I really hope that your heartache will recover as soon as possible. The envoys of other countries are looking forward to seeing you at the banquet." It would be too impolite to refuse to attend because of physical weakness.

"There are already too many people who suspect that our husband and wife are not compatible. I really don't want to add another one. You should know that no kingdom is willing to form an alliance with a kingdom whose emperor and queen are in conflict. I don't think this is what you want. result."

Although the new king said so, the queen's face became paler and paler.Sophie clutched her chest, her heartache seemed to get worse.

"You should be more cooperative, queen." The new king's eyes showed a bit of accusation, he let go of his hand, and looked around the palace.The dissatisfied gaze stayed on Leif for a while, but when he turned to the stern-faced female envoy, he avoided it unnaturally.

Noren couldn't tell why, he should have had hundreds of reasons to drive Natiavina away from the queen, and even executed her, but he still kept her by the queen's side.There seemed to be something terrifying about this woman, but Noren still couldn't explain the origin of his fear of her.

Leif looked at the back of the king leaving, touched the pinched neck, and turned to Natia Vida: "Why didn't you say earlier, if I fail, I will be thrown into the snake pond! At that time , Slippery snakes will crawl to every corner of my body, and after strangling me to suffocation, the biggest one will devour me in one bite."

The original idea of ​​"this is just a game" in her heart has been shaken at this moment - she knows that if she loses, she can't click "Play again", she will really die, and she will die very painfully.

For the first time, this world gave her such a personal sense of cruelty.

Leif felt that this innocent-looking female envoy was not a good person.She originally thought that Natia Vida was trying to save her, but unexpectedly, she was trying to lure her into a trap.It's ridiculous that she didn't have the slightest vigilance, and she was even a bit honored... She is so stupid.

"I came to Jino King's Capital a month and a half ago. At first, I had a purpose similar to yours, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult. The queen kept me by her side out of kindness, and I have survived until today. But the king has already spoken, If I can't find a way to solve the queen's heartache within half a month, I will be thrown into the snake pond with you." Natia Vida thought of snakes, which are weak, cute and delicious creatures , I don’t know why Leif described them so scary.

Leff interpreted Natia Vida's expression as fear, and the anger in her heart dissipated a little.Leaving aside the "respect for ladies" required by the career she's pursuing, Leif's nature is to hate to see a cute girl sad -- unless the girl is a dragon.

The female envoy looked at Leif and sighed softly, "Then will you fail?"

Laif pressed the scabbard to her side, and said, "...Of course not."

"It's great that you don't have any conflicts. I still want you and Natia Vida to complete the task together." The queen caressed her chest, and unconsciously stroking the sculpture on the armrest of the armchair with her other hand. It seemed a little heavy, "Be it the clowns or the circus, they all tried to make me laugh, but they all failed.

"I thought, if I didn't know my father's last wish, my heartache would never heal.

"My father was always in good health, but he died of no illness a year and five months ago. I was out playing with my girlfriend, Listinger. After getting the news and rushing back, I already missed the chance to see my father one last time. I don't even know the cause of my father's death, this is one; my father didn't leave a will, maybe there are some regrets left during his lifetime, but I can't help him complete it, this is the second... After that, my daughter The companion disappeared, and I thought maybe it was because she knew something."

The queen rubbed her brows, as if thinking of the chaos at that time.

In just a few days, an accident happened. While losing his father, he also lost his best friend. Naturally, it was very uncomfortable.Then, in the midst of ignorance, he has to take on the responsibility of protecting the kingdom.

"In short, I must know what my father said before he died."

The task the queen gave them was to go to Muir Woods outside Kino City and take a branch from the prophet tree.According to legend, as long as you make a flute from the branch of the prophet, and then play it with a question in your mind, all the answers that the flute wants will appear in the sound of the flute.

In the entire continent of Deya, only the last prophet tree remains in Muir Woods.Each prophet tree will only grow one branch in 100 years, and one branch can only answer one question.

But just for this one question, the branch of the prophet has attracted successive scrambles for generations: the greedy for money asks for the location of the treasure, the philosopher who ponders the mysteries of the universe wonders why the moon waxes and wanes, and the careerist who is blinded by profit Wanting to know the enemy's weakness, the young man who has a crush on the girl is eager to know whether the girl has the same love for him in her heart...

The Prophet Tree has not been taken away all these years because it is guarded by powerful monsters.

The author has something to say:

Although the hand speed is sloppy, but I always feel that I am going to be fast...
