I seriously doubt there is something wrong with my Chaldea

Lixiang reluctantly showed a smile, although it might not be possible for Matthew to see it because of the bandage blocking it, but he still wanted to let Matthew know that he was fine.

Although Matthew hugged him just now, it felt very comfortable, but he was tight and stuffy, but he would never say such a complaint. Matthew just lost his position because of concern, and what he said was pure. It is increasing her psychological burden.

"Liar...Senior has already..."

After finally being appeased, Matthew's eyes turned red immediately after hearing Lixiang's "I'm fine" that she said countless times. Lixiang's bruised and dying appearance the night before yesterday really frightened her. How could she be deceived by Li Xiang so easily again.

"..."

In this regard, Lixiang just raised his bandage-wrapped hand, and wiped away the little remaining tears in front of Matthew's slightly reddened eye sockets.

"Well... if Mash is here... there will be no... more accidents."

Letting the tears wet the black bandages on his fingertips, Li Xiang paused for a moment to make his voice not so hoarse, and said calmly and gently.

"………Um."

Looking at Lixiang's Xinghai Pupil, Mash nodded subconsciously, and lightly grasped Lixiang's hand that swept past her eyes. At this moment, the two looked at each other and fell into a subtle silence.

"........."

The original noisy voice quickly disappeared, but neither Assassin, Tesla, nor Andersen had any intention of disturbing the two of them now.

"It's great that Your Excellency the Magician can wake up so quickly."

Assassin said.

"I just woke up in a day, and it seems to be recovering well."

Tesla showed a gentlemanly smile.

"Ha... Is this the credit of meeting Matthew? Hmph, the encounter between the princess and the prince broke the curse of sleep... It's like Sleeping Beauty... Ah no, or call it the Sleeping Prince Maybe it's more appropriate."

Andersen showed a wicked smile. After all, Sleeping Beauty seems to be from Grimm's fairy tales, right? !

"The romance of a young boy and a girl...it's wonderful..."

Professor Aronax behind the door murmured as if dreaming.

"Ha ha ha ha--!"

"Boom boom boom!"

The door was opened, and it was easy to hear the laughter of the children playing with each other on the other side, and at the same time, there was a burst of very hurried footsteps.

"Come and chase me! Hahahaha!"

A child ran down the small hallway and shouted behind him.

"Stop running! Stop for me—!"

Driven by the little boy behind him, the child who could only run straight forward turned around and rushed into the room of Matthew and Lixiang without going through his brain.

The Servants were taken aback.

"Big sister, big brother, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, the curious voice of the child came from the room.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Immediately, Lixiang coughed violently from a distance because of poor breathing.

"Ah! No...nothing—!"

Matthew's very flustered voice sounded immediately, sure enough, this kind of thing is fine when the two of them are alone, if there are other people in front of them, how dare they do such a thing with such a thin skin.

"Eh——that's weird...ah, never mind...come and catch me! ruroruroruroror——"

The child gave a somewhat puzzled "Huh". Although he didn't understand why the big sister and big brother hugged each other at all, this was not something he was thinking about. Compared with thinking about such trivial things, it must be more interesting to continue the hide-and-seek just now.

As soon as the child left, the atmosphere that had been dissipated all of a sudden did not reappear, and the surrounding atmosphere became even more awkward.

Matthew stood there in a daze, neither stood nor sat, and continued with Lixiang... that would be even more impossible, and Lixiang was the same, he didn't know where to put his bandaged hands, the two of them Just staying there, stupidly looking at the other person subconsciously, but not daring to...

"It's...it's been so long, ex...senior must have never eaten anything...I'll help you make something to eat..."

After finding a reason that couldn't be simpler, Matthew quickly ran away after mustering up the courage to finish speaking.

in fact……

Lixiang wanted to speak but couldn't speak. Even if he could speak, he couldn't persuade Matthew who wanted to escape. In fact, he obviously didn't need such a thing...

Hmm... It would be great if I could stay with him for a while...

Although the wound hadn't healed, Lixiang could feel that the severe pain directly on his body had disappeared.

…………

"Ugh……"

The Servants outside the door sighed.

Chapter 41: Dormant Hunting

As if to calm down the devastation of that night, the whole of Venice fell into a calm for the next few days of that night.

In the environment filled with dense fog, the surroundings fell into deathly silence. The houses were dilapidated and there was no trace of life movement. If there was not even the most basic movement, sinking in the dense fog, even the body In the ruins of the past, there will be no awareness.

And whether it was the Chaldean side that was attacked by the Demon God Pillar before and managed to escape, or those who attacked the Chaldean side did not cause too many casualties, and even the damage was only within the scope of a museum...

The fighting situation between the two sides seemed to press the pause button after Chaldea retreated. Chaldea disappeared in the dense fog of Venice again, and the Demon God Pillar gradually hibernated, and the monsters that often wandered around were at peace. After coming down, they only stayed in their respective areas and wandered.

But this was just a superficial phenomenon floating above the dense fog, apart from the huge commotion that was enough to cause the other side, the small commotions to explore the whereabouts of the enemy never stopped at all.

"Ah...so in the way...so in the way...!"

In the dense fog, a blood-red dagger pierced through the thick fog, and chopped very precisely on the joints of the mechanical dolls in front of him. Although the bodies of those mechanical dolls are very hard, compared to the joints, But unexpectedly fragile.

The knife slashed, and the stinky turbid liquid splashed out from the broken limb of the mechanical doll. Before he could react, the blood-stained dagger stabbed the doll's monster's too slender waist, and then With a violent swing, the entire doll was chopped off in half.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After quickly solving this mechanical doll, the brown-haired man kicked the other mechanical doll to the ground vigorously.

"Ha... It was just some tools, but I didn't expect that there would be an indiscriminate attack!"

He opened his scarlet pupils wide, and the sharp dagger in his hand pierced into the doll's torso, and the stench of liquid spilled all over the wound.

"Tch...! What a disgusting thing! It can't be used to detect the whereabouts of those people in Chaldea, and it can only occupy the place and launch indiscriminate attacks-hey! What are you making this kind of waste for?! "

After quickly making the puppet unable to move at all, the man entered the spirit body state in disgust, and shook off the bit of smelly liquid. For him, this kind of defective product is far worse than a human being. It was so much that he couldn't help shouting at the man in gray beside him, causing serious dissatisfaction.

"........."

Seeing that there were only fragments and the smelly liquid doll remains, the man in gray fell silent. After a while, he muttered to himself: "This... this is not Christina... ah ...Christina..."

"whispering sound!"

The brown-haired man felt extremely impatient with his teammates who seemed to be bewildered.

In contrast, it is impossible to believe this ghost whose mind is full of singers, he would rather believe in himself.

But... Believe in yourself... This is really the most ridiculous joke in the world. A person who is on the road to self-destruction chooses to believe in himself? !Do not be silly!

But having said that, that guy did get some kind of information—the location of Master Chaldea was determined by tracking magic power and blood.

The brown-haired man narrowed his scarlet eyes, and rubbed his fingertips against the sharp dagger that could never wipe off the blood. He seemed to be thinking about something. The traces of magic power and the smell of blood around him were getting stronger and stronger. That was... The blood of the Chaldean Master?

If not then it's almost impossible, but if it is...

Also unlikely.

He frowned, this was the intuition of a murderer, if this could kill the last human master, it would be too easy.

But this smell of blood is also impossible to fake.

After thinking for a while, he stretched his frowning brows, and a mocking smile appeared on his face. He was sure that the smell of blood was followed by the dog. Anyway, he had already determined its location, no matter it was the enemy's cover-up. Whether it is really Chaldea's whereabouts or not, it has nothing to do with him, he just needs to do his own job well.

As for other issues such as identifying authenticity... Humph, never mind!

"Oh, ghost."

Suddenly, he turned his head to look at a gray-clothed man who lowered his head and muttered to himself, and asked, "Did you see that [Ogre (Berserker)]?"

"........."

"Ok?"

"...No...I didn't see...that hideous monster again..."

After a while, he thought that the man in gray would not answer his question, but the handsome and melancholy looking man suddenly answered in silence.

"Hahaha—do you even think that ogre is a monster?"

The brown-haired man grinned, as if laughing at someone.

Although he shouldn't have this kind of comparison and evaluation of guilt, monsters are monsters, and evil monsters that were born of humans but reincarnated as heretics are just beasts willing to degenerate into demons. Comparing them is really disgusting.

"So—Hyde, what shall we do now?"

The handsome man whose mind was full of singers just now seemed to wake up from the chaos of his brain. He looked elegant and had the melancholy of an aristocrat, and he couldn't help but make people feel good.

"Oh?"

The man called Hyde glanced at the "ghost" beside him a little unexpectedly, and said, "Since we have got the whereabouts of Chaldea, let's let the 'hound' go out... Hehe, I believe that dog will be very happy." Glad no one is competing with him for this 'beautiful job'."

"Aren't you going to attack directly?"

The handsome man asked, this is obviously different from the intention of their "leader", or "mind".

"Just do what we're supposed to do, let alone..."

Hyde's smile gradually disappeared, and he said coldly: "The work of tightening the network port is also important, isn't it?"

"……Um."

The handsome man said nothing, just nodded silently.

…………

To Mash's relief, after this injury, Lixiang seems to be much better than when he was in Orleans and Rome, even after the injury, he had to brace his body and continue to fight. .

In the past few days, she hasn't clamored to fight back, or to continue her previous exploration, and she hasn't even mentioned these words. An An's peace of mind to recuperate her injuries made her feel relieved from her worry.

... It's great that the senior is willing to heal his injuries in peace of mind, except that he will always let Mr. Tesla into the room to be alone with him for a period of time. It is very impolite to spy on other people's privacy, and if senior is willing to tell me, he will definitely tell me at the right time!

Matthew, who was so convinced in her heart, nodded, and was very satisfied with Li Xiang's active and quiet recovery in the past few days.

"Crash..."

Making a cup of coffee for Lixiang with boiling water has almost become a daily habit for Matthew at this time.

Just as she was about to push open the door of Lixiang's room, Hassan, the curse arm, just walked out of Lixiang's room.

"Eh? Mr. Assassin? Are you planning to go out again?"

"Well, yes, Your Excellency Mash."

Assassin tried his best to make a peaceful expression and said, although the pale skull mask really couldn't change with his expression.

Although Lixiang has settled down and can't go out now, Assassin will always run out every now and then, probably to complete some tasks assigned to him by Lixiang.

"Oh...then please pay attention to safety, after all, it is very dangerous outside."

Out of politeness, Matthew reminded Assassin.

"Hahaha, thank you for your advice, I will pay attention to it."

Assassin smiled, and then walked down the second floor, passed through the children who were laughing and playing with each other, pushed open the door and turned into a black shadow under the thick fog, and quickly disappeared into the thick fog.

"Dong dong dong."

After the rhythmic knock on the door, Matthew pushed the door open, just in time to see Lixiang who was fiddling with the debugging switch of his armor.

"senior?"

Matthew froze for a moment.

"Ah! It's Mash..."
