After get off work, start speeding through another world

Chapter 19 Prelude to the Assassination
"..."

"..."

Ximu remained silent, showing no signs of tenderness and playfulness to Hiyer.
After all, he knows too much about the official bad taste of the game. He creates a gentle and playful female character. When you feel good about her, he suddenly tells you that she is the plague goddess in the game. The evil goddess who cleanses all races in the world, and when you get entangled and contradictory because Hiyer is the goddess of plague.

The Plague Goddess will be killed by the plot, and there is no way to save her, leaving regrets for the players who have not yet recovered.

Of course, there is no way to save her. When the player becomes powerful enough to reverse time in the later stage, they can also save the Plague Goddess.

But that's only on paper. The game Mystery Door does not support going back to the past, nor does it allow for changes to the past.

The reason seems to be policy reasons, in order to prevent players from blurring the boundaries between reality and the game too much, and to prevent players from wanting to travel through time and change everything after making mistakes.

In reality, there is no chance to travel through time and change the past.

"Why do you feel like you are perfunctory with me?" Frowning, Hiyer looked at the Silver Knight's calm eyes and felt that the other party did not completely believe that he was the Plague Goddess, and was just trying to make her happy.

Ximu: "No, it just doesn't have much realism."

"Yes, for most of you, gods are just a concept that exists." Nodding slightly, Hiyer chose to believe the other party.

She turned around and put her hands behind her back, walking among the grape trellises. The dappled sunlight fell on her body, which made people feel heart-warming.

Maybe first love is like this.

Unfortunately, this is the official evil taste of the game. In order to leave players with regrets, Hiyer was specially modeled and even her voice was specially adjusted.

However, Ximu only wanted to kill the Plague Goddess, and had no idea of ​​falling in love. He just wanted to complete the complete illustrated book of killing all the gods.

He carried a heavy sword, looked at Hiyer walking in front of him, and said: "The understanding of the concept of gods varies from person to person."

"You know the goddess of life and death very well, right?" Hiyer picked a grape from the grape trellis and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I don't have much interest in a little god like me."

"The goddess who regulates the balance of all races in this world cannot be a minor god." Ximu retorted in a serious tone.

In response, Hiyer snorted softly: "I believe in the goddess of life and the goddess of death at the same time, but they are both the most powerful goddesses."

Having said this, she picked another grape and handed it to the knight in silver behind her, her eyes filled with curiosity.

"Why do you believe in two goddesses that are so contradictory?"

"Life must be meaningful because of death." Ximu explained and ate the grapes handed over by Hiyer.

Then the entry "Disease Immunity" appeared in his vision column. This was a blessing from the goddess and he could not be affected by diseases for life.

However, he did not thank him for this. After all, he could not explain why he knew and could see his own condition.

This blessing was quietly given to him by the Plague Goddess.

"Your understanding of life... is quite thorough." Hiyer nodded, and then curiously asked, "Do you know anything about the plague?"

"Restraint." Ximu replied, and in the strange eyes of Hiyer, he explained, "For example, after getting married, cheating may lead to sexually transmitted diseases."

"It's really an interesting angle." Hiyer smiled lightly, raised his hand to gently brush the hair around his ears, and stared at the Silver Knight with bright eyes, "You have made such a terrible ability seem noble by you. .”

"That's what I'm thinking." Ximu lied without changing his face. He also felt that the Plague Goddess was right in her self-assessment.

However, saying it will make Hier feel bad.

And if it's bad, he won't get the props, nor can he get Siyer's blessing, so he will try his best to say happy words to Siyer.

"Knight~ Your thoughts are very naive." Hiyer smiled happily, raised his hand to wipe the corners of his eyes and was about to burst into tears.

She took out a hood that looked like a crow's head out of thin air, handed it to the knight in front of her who was making her happy, and said:
"This is a gift, but it's a little ugly."

"Thank you." Ximu took the crow's hood, knowing that he had met the conditions for the Witch of Time to believe that he knew where the Plague Goddess was.

When the Witch of Time sees the hood he is holding, she will immediately choose to assassinate the Plague Goddess, and this will speed up the progress of the plot by more than two months.

"Go back, your princess is getting anxious waiting." Hiyer looked at the silver knight who had received the hood and looked towards the horizon without knowing it.

She smiled softly.

"I hope we can meet again next time." The gentle smile drifted away with the breeze, and Hiyer in front of him also disappeared. It seemed that she had also melted into the wind, or into the warm sunshine.

What a gentle and mysterious goddess.

but.

Ximu had no thoughts of nostalgia or heartbeat at all. He hurriedly left the Red Rose Winery and rushed towards Bull Street as quickly as possible.

At this time, on the roof of Red Rose Winery, Hier was wearing a white dress, standing elegantly on the roof, raising her hands to gently comb her hair that was disturbed by the wind.

She watched the knight's unyielding steps without looking back, and couldn't help but sigh at how much the silver knight cared about the princess.

After parting, they didn't stop for a moment and returned as quickly as possible.

……

...

The night was as cool as water, and the lights shrouded the Lionheart City.

Ximu walked alone through the streets and alleys, returned to Kronos' residence, and walked in holding a beak hood.

"Oops, you came back so late~" Kronos turned his head and looked at Ximu's approaching figure, and then his eyes couldn't help but fall on Ximu holding a hood in his hand, his pupils subconsciously tightening.

"Haha~ are you being asked out by the noble lady?" She took a sip from the coffee cup and spoke in a joking tone.

"Out of breath and carrying precious gifts."

"..." Leticia's joyful smile froze slightly, and she felt like her heart was pricked by a needle, but she knew she couldn't show it.

"Welcome back, Lord Akhtar." She smiled softly, and her firm emerald eyes were a little sad as she whispered:
"Please don't do so much for me."

"Everything has happened, even the gift has been received." Chronos chuckled, "It's too late for you to say this now."

Leticia: "..."

The already bad mood has become even worse now. With her good temper, she can endure it and will never implicate others.

But now I have the urge to be angry with Chronos.

"You're coming to my room tonight." Kronos held his chin in his delicate hands, his smile a bit malicious and disgusting.

"Akhtar, you didn't do anything with that lady, did you?"

"..."

Ximu was silent for a moment, looking at Leticia staring at him nervously and Kronos's evil smile.

"Just chatting, nothing done."

"Really?" Leticia showed a trusting smile. She believed that the knight who protected her would not lie on this matter. When Kronos saw this scene, his branches trembled with laughter, and he felt very happy about the scene he saw in front of him.

"Letitia, you... are really cute."

"I believe Lord Akhtar!" Leticia's words did not waver at all, and then she saw Kronos' playful eyes.

"Then after tonight, do you believe that Akhtar and I have done nothing?"

The atmosphere froze instantly.

Of course, Kronos knew that Akhtar was not lying. With her witch's vision, she could feel that Akhtar was not mixed with other women's aura. It was really just a chat, but who let Leticia's The facial expressions are so interesting.

If she doesn't bully her, that would be a disgrace to her witch character.

And sure enough, Leticia's expression froze. She wanted to refute, but found that she couldn't say anything to refute.

She lowered her head and clenched her hands into fists.

Anger... or hatred, she didn't understand the emotions in her heart, but she could clearly understand that she couldn't suppress the emotions and grievances in her heart.

"Please don't tease Leticia." Ximu said, putting the hood in his hand on the table and explaining to Leticia.

"I really didn't do anything with her, I just chatted. She just wanted to know our story."

"Yes, I believe it." Leticia lowered her head and clenched her hands tightly. It seemed that the arrow wound on her wrist had disappeared at this moment.

She believed that Akhtar was just going to chat, but it was impossible for Chronos to really chat, and something would really happen at night.

Although she and Akhtar were not a couple, let alone a couple, she had no feelings at all and could watch Akhtar and Kronos walk into the room with a smile.

That is absolutely impossible to do.

Kronos glanced at the girl who had her head lowered and was about to cry unbearably, and said: "Any unsatisfactory results are caused by the lack of strength of the person involved."

She picked up the bird head hood on the table and looked at it casually.

"You should think about why you are so weak and why you can't protect what you want to protect. There is no use in crying and feeling wronged."

Ximu: "..."

From his point of view, it was just Kronos talking nonsense. Everyone knew that he was strong enough and could solve many troublesome things.

But for most people, if they can't do it, they just can't do it, otherwise they don't need to go to work and occasionally have to work overtime.

However, Leticia unexpectedly calmed down. She quickly adjusted her mentality and swallowed her grievances, although she still lowered her head to hide her expression.

If she can regain the throne, she will take out the sword of light sealed in the family's forbidden area and use it.

"This hood is quite interesting. Who gave it to you?" Kronos asked Ximu with a smile, his expression not showing any signs of strangeness.

But her heart was filled with cold murderous intent.

In order to assassinate the Plague Goddess, she lurked in Lionheart City for a long time. She often wandered around and went to different duels just to find the Plague Goddess.

But now, the whereabouts of the Plague Goddess have finally been discovered.

"It's a lady." Ximu replied casually, but Kronos frowned in displeasure, and then smiled slightly.

She hooked her fingers at Ximu. After Ximu came closer, her red lips opened slightly and her words were ambiguous.

"Go wash off the smell on your body and come to my room." After that, she drank the coffee on the table, stood up gracefully and left the living room.

The woman wants to know where Hiyer is.

Ximu thought so, turned to Leticia and said, "I will take you to treat your injuries in a moment."

"Yeah." Leticia responded with her head lowered, and then she heard the knight beside her turn around and leave, heading to the bathroom to take a bath.

His hands could not help but clenched tighter.

Ximu took off his silver armor and clothes in the bathroom, carefully washed away the blood on the armor, and took a serious shower.

Then, he put on the bath towel in the bathroom and walked out of the door, walking towards Chronos' bedroom. When he passed by Leticia, there was no words between them.

The sound of a door closing was heard.

"..." Leticia closed her eyes tightly, preparing herself for inner torment, but unexpectedly, it happened a minute later.

The door was pushed open again.

"Yes, yes, that's where to move it." Kronos leaned against the edge of the door, directing Ximu to move the vase, and then looked at Leticia with half-smiling eyes, who might drop the little pearl at any time. , knowingly asked:
"Who bullied you, or why you couldn't bear to ask your knight brother to help move a vase?"

"Moving the vase?" Leticia blinked and saw Kronos smiling slightly, raising his hand to lightly touch the hair beside his ears.

Asked her back.

"Otherwise, what do you think it is?" Kronos raised his hand to cover his lips, as if he was surprised, "Is the princess of the Iris Kingdom who you are thinking of?"

She shook her head slightly.

"I am the Grand Duke of the Dragon Kingdom. Does Miss Leticia underestimate me too much?"

Leticia: "Sorry."

Unexpectedly, she was not angry at being teased. Instead, she apologized to Chronos, and the torment in her heart disappeared.

Although he was teased, he also secretly cursed the other party.

But after knowing it was a prank, she relaxed and didn't have much resentment towards Chronos.

After all, they did help me.

"Maybe you can be a little more angry." Kronos smiled and continued to direct Xiumu to move some precious items in the room.

After moving a few items, she waved her hand mercilessly.

"Okay, you can go."

"..."

Ximu nodded, went to put on his red dragon blood armor, and then carried Leticia on his back.

"Ms. Kronos, I hope to see you next time." He said and left the room.

Kronos didn't care when he saw this. After watching the two people leave, he asked into the air:
"Your followers, bring me good news."

"He is not my believer, he is just someone who borrows my power." A cold response came out, and will-o'-the-wisps burned in the air.

Then, the Witch of Death appeared.

"If the conditions are put together, we can execute the plan."
