I really only stop

The eternal flame clearly refers to Heleyer's immortality; the burning of the way to heaven and hell refers to his keeping ordinary souls from dissipating by kicking down the tombstone; and the violent suppression is better understood, suggesting that if we It is absolutely impossible to solve this incident by only using the usual method of crusade against monsters.

As for the second half of the sentence, it was even more terrifyingly accurate.

I originally thought that the so-called "Nectar from the inside out" refers to the weakness of Hleyye as a special Balrog who can't drink water, but now it seems——

"—Yeah, what calms the fire in his heart is not this nectar-like [love]."

As if answering, but also sighing with emotion, Lu Xi patted Zorika's shoulder:

"It's a good kid. If I could speak more clearly, I wouldn't have caused so many troubles."

"I am not a child!"

Slapping Lu Xi's paw away with a snap, Zerika ground her teeth eagerly:

"Speaking of which, after such a long time of fighting, Ruoyouxi's body should be already pineapple pineapple, right? Thinking about it this way, isn't this a good opportunity for me to suppress you?"

"Huh? How dare you take advantage of someone's weakness? Have you really become the embodiment of the term [crumbs] in the human world?!"

"Stupid! This is called【Seize the Opportunity】! Take my move! Meow!!!!"

"Hey! I'm going! Are you really talking?! Hey!"

--------------

"Thank you and your teammates this time."

Seeing that Lucy and Celica over there seem to be having some interesting interactions that cannot be disturbed, Mr. Mayor, who is very good at reading the atmosphere, bowed respectfully to Yuxia and Nana:

"The follow-up management of the cemetery will be handed over to my subordinates. It just so happens that the town has plans to relocate the cemetery, so it will probably continue to be used as a memorial site."

After Heleye's full blown flame gun, the entire cemetery is obviously no longer suitable for performing its original functions.On the contrary, there was a wonderful contrast between the burnt glassy ground and the miraculously intact giant tree in the center, and Mr. Mayor naturally wanted to make a fuss about this.

Speaking of the theme of remembrance, though...

"Miss, although I am proficient in government affairs, I don't know anything about these literature-related things."

With a look of shame on his face, Mr. Mayor decided to seek help from the two female adventurers in front of him:

"I don't know what the two ladies think is a suitable theme for this new memorial site? To be honest, I hope this theme can attract more bards and tourists..."

With bards, the reputation of the place can be spread more quickly, and tourists can bring extra income to the town——Mr. Mayor's idea is so simple and boring.

I can feel that the identity of the clergy lady in front of me is not simple, and by observing her clothes, she also has a high taste for [beauty].

Themes thought up by such people should be very suitable for women's preferences——

"That... can I tell you one?"

To the mayor's surprise, when the lady cleric was deep in thought, the more introverted lady alchemist raised her hand:

"[Contact]... What do you think of this?"

"connect?"

Although I knew that this Miss Alchemist had helped the town do a lot of things during the mission, but the other party suddenly brought up such a topic, which made the mayor slightly stunned:

"Of course, but why do you think of this word?"

"Well, that's what I suddenly felt too."

Scratching her hair embarrassingly, Nana still expressed her thoughts:

"When helping everyone in the town solve problems, I don't know why, but I feel a sense of [connection] that is vague."

"For example, I helped an old man find his music box, and then passed the music box to his granddaughter. The two of them [connected] tightly."

"Yesterday, when I was feeling uneasy because of some of my thoughts, my most precious teammates stood by my side. Although they only said a few words, the uneasiness in my heart miraculously disappeared. ——At that time, I also felt the existence of [Connection].”

"Won't be limited by time, even if we are far apart, just relying on an object, a word, or a hug can warm someone's heart - I didn't have the opportunity to experience this feeling before, but now, I think this human connection is very important!"

She clenched her fists tightly, and after noticing Mr. Mayor's gaze, Nana, who was impassioned once in a while, immediately blushed again:

"Hold, I'm sorry! I've said too much! Although these are indeed my heartfelt wishes, I don't necessarily mean to let the mayor accept my proposal—"

"—that's wonderful."

"Eh?"

"I mean, it's amazing! Miss Nana!"

A flash of excitement flashed across his face, and Mr. Mayor applauded Ruan Mei without hesitation:

"Contact...Before I was still worried that the sight of a giant tree growing in a piece of glass here would make tourists feel strange, but now it seems that this is the best embodiment of [Contact]! Centered on contact ...and then... yes, it's okay here..."

Ah, gone.

After entering the working state, the mayor, who was afraid that the inspiration would be fleeting, bowed deeply to Nana and rushed directly to the office, leaving Nana who wanted to return the gift in a hurry but had no chance to stand there alone.

"That's great, Nana."

The voice of Miss Saintess sounded lightly beside the soft girl, with a little bit of ridicule and inexplicable relief in it:

"[Contact]—Nanai is really amazing to be able to say such powerful words—hmm! I like Nana more and more! Give me a hug~"

"—Wow!"

Unprepared to be hugged into a soft and fragrant embrace, Nana blushed and muttered in a low voice:

"In, you can't be so intimate in this kind of public place... Also! Why does Yuxia like to tease me so much? If you want to hug, you can go home and hug again!"

"It doesn't matter~ You can't escape, Nana~"

"So, so say!"

A breeze blew by, and Nana seemed to hear some specious conversations——

[Hey, woman, I'm done, Yu came to see you. 】

[Domestic, the speed is too slow!My shoulders are sore, give me a rub. 】

【what?Yu Zhi's hands are burning with never-ending anger, do you think you don't want your own shoulders? 】

[Isn't that just right!Compared with cold hands, of course a warm massage is more comfortable! 】

【you……】

The sound got farther and farther away, and finally disappeared in the gust of wind. It was surprising, but it didn't make people feel lonely.

——The so-called [Contact] is probably something like this... right?

No.11 Sanctuary, Virtue, Lost City

Chapter 447

"To celebrate the return of Master Lucille—cheers!"

"cheers!!!!!"

The bar of the guild is always so bustling, but such uniform cheers are very rare.

"Hey, what about it?"

Looking at the group of brawny adventurers who started to take off their clothes after being drunk, Lu Xi glanced at the smiling pink hair beside him:

"Drag me here as soon as I returned to Rhine City, and make such a big battle? Didn't we just solve a public welfare task?"

"Oh, Lucy! Don't be humble here with your brother!"

Hugging Lu Xi's shoulders vigorously, Fenmao raised his glass to the adventurers who were toasting here:

"The night before yesterday, a small town within the jurisdiction of Rhine City suddenly experienced a reaction of extremely high heat. President Faron was so startled that he immediately got up and took the dragon. Do you dare to say that this has nothing to do with you?"

[Yes, yes, it’s me, the night before yesterday I had a full fight with a cadre who exploded with magic]——Although such a statement is indeed cool, but if you shout it here, the career of an adventurer will be ruined It's over.

"That is the big move of the enemy boss, what does it have to do with me?"

Pushing all the responsibilities onto Brother Heleyer who is in heaven in an instant, Lu Xi's expression did not change and his heart skipped a beat:

"It's all old men. Everyone here has never opened a boss, so there's no need to make such a fuss."

"Damn it! I just can't get used to your attitude!"

Fenmao patted the table pretending to be angry, instantly attracting the attention of everyone in the bar:

"You can meet such a powerful boss just by going out to do a public welfare task. Do you call this [a big fuss]? If you say that, what is the name of President Faron who got up from the bed the night before yesterday? Did you turn pale in shock—— Hmm? Why are you all looking at me?"

"..."

At some point, the bustling atmosphere in the bar suddenly froze.Just now, the talking and laughing adventurers were staring in Cupid's direction, and some even silently made gestures of prayer.

Eh?Didn't you say that you can flatter Master Lu and trick him into drinking?Don't you guys fail to see that my move is extremely clever [depreciation and praise in secret]?

【Dangerous! 】

Anyway, as a senior adventurer, Cupid has done many more missions than Lu Xi who only came to the guild occasionally when he wanted to get famous.As a result, Fenmao has developed his own unique intuition—but now, this intuition is desperately sounding the alarm.

Something is wrong!Something is wrong!

The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and the pink-haired knight finally realized the crux of the matter.

They don't seem to be looking at me, but... behind me?

"—Go on."

A calm yet majestic voice suddenly sounded from behind Cupid, obviously without any threatening aura, but it made Cupid instantly turn on the strong vibration mode:

"I, Fallon, woke up in the middle of the night with a frightened—well, that's a good, vivid word—and after that? Go on."

"President Fa, Fafa Fafaron!!!"

The whole body was stiff like a piece of wood in an instant, and Cupid turned his head with difficulty 'creaking', showing a smile that was uglier than crying:

"You, why are you free to come to the bar?"

"The work was completed early, and in addition, I heard the information from the passing adventurer that 'I heard from Cupid that I can go to the bar today to get a drink from Master Lu', so I came here."

Hooking the corners of his mouth with a half-smile, Faron's eyes were deep:

"Why, not welcome?"

"Of course you are welcome! Sit down! Please sit down! Please take your seat!"

Fenmao, who had a strong sense of survival, sat up from his seat, and the standard of bowing made the royal etiquette officials feel ashamed:

"Who said I'm going to drink Lu Xi's wine today! In fact, I suddenly felt that there was a lot of money in my wallet—everyone! Cupid will buy all the wine tonight, okay?"

hateful!According to the customary rules for adventurers, the only way to save money here is to avoid disaster!

"Pfft."

The sporadic laughter quickly ignited the cheerful atmosphere. Seeing the shriveled pink hair who was rubbed instead of drinking, the rest of the adventurers would not be polite to him:

"Cupid is so handsome!"

"Master Cupid Knight is so strong!"

"It's so pretty! The big brother who took out the wallet!"

You, you guys...

Gritting his teeth, he took out his wallet, and Cupid, whose heart was bleeding, was just about to settle the payment and stop the loss as soon as possible, but when he looked up, he happened to meet Lu Xi's ambiguous smile:

"...Oh, I said why did you praise me all the time as soon as you came up? It turned out that you were trying to trick me into paying the bill while I was paralyzed."

"Luci! Don't do this!"

Holding Lu Xi's shoulder at lightning speed, Cupid, who instantly saw what he wanted to do, had textbook-like sincerity in his eyes:

"With our strong relationship, how could I do such a thing to you! No matter what you want to do now, please go to the toilet and think about it before putting it into practice! Please think extra when you go to the toilet Think how hard it would have been to save this little wife by doing so many dirty and tiring tasks in the field every day in the lower district Cupid - please!"

"Well, bowing is pretty standard—unfortunately, it's too late."

Seeing that, under Cupid's instantly desperate gaze, Lu Xi enthusiastically waved to the bartender:

"Here, please open a bottle of wisteria fruit wine that was collected as a commemorative collection ten years ago. By the way, I will also bring a cup to Mr. Cupid, who is kind enough to treat guests here~"

"No, no need."

Stealing a chicken is not enough to lose a lot of rice, and the pink-haired knight with a look of lovelessness showed a smile that could even be called [poignant]:
