Chapter 48 Should I call you, Jörmungandr?

Outside the window blown open by the wind was a dark sky, outside the sky was a dark lake, and street lamps, one after another, illuminated the sleeping courtyard brightly.

The huge room was empty, filled with the wind, and the curtains were rustling, blowing away the last trace of bloody smell in the living room.

On the bed in a bedroom with the light on, the girl was sleeping soundly with her legs spread out with the quilt between her legs, mumbling meaningless words from time to time, and seemed to be sleeping very soundly.

But at this moment, the quilt that she was holding tightly with her hands and feet was suddenly pulled away.

Bang!
Xia Mi rolled to the ground with a plop, opened her sleepy eyes drowsily, and saw a figure rummaging through drawers.

"What's going on? Are there thieves?"

Xia Mi instantly woke up and opened her eyes wide, but after seeing the figure clearly, she stopped yelling and wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth: "Shh, Sister Xiaoqiang, what are you doing so early in the morning?"

"Something happened to Qi Xiuyuan. I want to go find him."

Su Xiaoqiang's tone was a little hurried. He just kept rummaging through the boxes and quickly changed into a new set of clothes.
"Eh? Senior Brother Qi?" Xia Mi sat up straight. "What happened?"

"I don't know. I can't explain it right away." Su Xiaoqiang spoke quickly, "Xia Mi, wait for me at home. If my parents ask, just say I went to see a friend."

"No, no, I want to go too." Xia Mi shook her head like a rattle, quickly picked up the clothes that had fallen to the ground, and said as she put them on, "Since I can't explain it right away, I'll explain it on the way."

"However, if we go there like this, we should be able to help and not cause any more trouble, right?"

Hearing this, Su Xiaoqiang, who had already changed his clothes and was about to go out, stopped. He thought of the woman who committed suicide inexplicably and strangely, and the uncle who suddenly appeared to clean up the scene. A look of confusion flashed across his still slightly pale face.

But soon, she gradually calmed down and picked up the black card beside her.

"If there's any danger there," Su Xiaoqiang exhaled, "it's easier to walk in openly than to just force your way in."

After saying that, she walked straight out of the bedroom. Xia Mi, who was standing behind her, looked at her back, and her originally confused face gradually became expressionless.

"Does this mean there are two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed?"

After changing her clothes, Xia Mi muttered to herself, recalling the brief private conversation she and Qi Xiuyuan had before the four of them parted at the station.

------

Chu Zihang, who lived in the east of the city, left first. Su Xiaoqiang went to his father's company office to steal the membership card. Only Xia Mi and Qi Xiuyuan were left. They came to the rooftop of Su's Mining to wait for her to come out.

The young man stood quietly in front of the railing of the rooftop, with his back to the bored Xia Mi, looking at the setting sun in the distance.

The human voices are hidden in the red lights and green wine in the distance, like bubbles rising and bursting, and entering the ears along with the noisy wind.

Looking at Qi Xiuyuan's back, Xia Mi's eyes turned, and she stood up on tiptoe, as silently as a cat, and touched Qi Xiuyuan in front of her.

The two of them were about five meters apart, and Xia Mi gradually shortened the distance with one step or two.

Xia Mi walked all the way behind him, three meters away from him, and suddenly stopped. The fingers tucked into her sleeves turned into sharp claws, reflecting her eyes and the boy in front of her, but she did not take any action.

"You're not going to do it?" The young man with his back to her said calmly, "This is a good opportunity, right?"

call!
There was a creepy evil wind raging past my ears, like the rustling of leaves in the wind, or like the teasing and mocking whisper of a devil.

Probably only in the center of the storm can you hear such a screaming wind.

It seemed as if an eye of the storm appeared between the two of them, swallowing up all the air. The surrounding air pressure was dropping madly, and the smoke and clouds were rolling up, making a loud whistling sound.

In this surging storm, the hems of their clothes and hair were blown up, as light as floating leaves.

The girl was no longer as lively as usual. Her Bohemian dress rolled like clouds, her long hair also rolled like clouds and smoke, her golden eyes were filled with majesty, and she sang like an angel singing a hymn.

At this moment, Qi Xiuyuan was like straw in the field, which would fall down if a gust of wind blew. Even if there was no wind, he would still be shaky.

But the next moment, his hand grasped the sheathed knife at his waist, his left hand flattening the base of his palm to form a right angle. Xia Mi's golden pupils narrowed slightly. She could sense that at least four or five tenths of the wind element, originally under her command, had lost control and was rapidly gathering in the sheath at Qi Xiuyuan's waist.

It is just like a whale sucking in water while siphoning, absorbing the wind element that humans cannot observe.

Buzz! Buzz!

The next moment, Xia Mi narrowed her eyes and stretched out her hand.

The invisible cold wind rushing towards the rooftop seemed to come alive, and under the influence of dust and fog, it had a substantial form, sweeping towards Qi Xiuyuan who was standing at the edge of the rooftop.

Clang.

Just as the wind was about to blow, Qi Xiuyuan grasped the scabbard at his waist with one hand and the hilt of the sword with the other and drew it out.

The blade was drawn out and passed through the sheath, making a ringing sound. The iron-gray blade was covered with wind elements, as if turning into white blade patterns, and the blade was as clear as a half moon.

It was so fast that you couldn't see the blade clearly, so fast that you could only see the arc of light, passing by with a sharp sound that tore your eardrums.

呲! !

He swung the sword from left to right, with a length of less than twenty-five inches, but the sword left a flash of several meters in front of Xia Mi's eyes, like a white crescent moon, as if her sight would be cut.

The wind blades and wind scrolls collided and wrestled with each other, causing the wind to whistle like a meat grinder, like wild beasts tearing and biting each other, but the biting soon ended.

The sweeping wind was torn in half by the crescent moon, and the whistling airflow was split into two and went left and right, surging past Qi Xiuyuan on both sides, creating a ripple like water behind him.

In the end, all that remained on the rooftop was the sound of the raging wind and two people, one tall and one short, looking at each other.

"you……"

Looking at those dark eyes, Xia Mi's expression became confused.

The supreme Black King created four monarchs, based on earth, fire, wind and water, which represent the basic elements for building the world. A pair of twins sat on each throne.

Just like the younger brother Constantine in The Lord of Bronze and Fire who possessed greater power but lost his huge body, the older brother Norton was born with the strongest alchemical talent and will but also lost his greater power.

As the kings of the earth and the mountains, she and Fenrir jointly wield "power" and "strength" and complement each other. She is the one who holds "power". She does not have a dragon body but is born with extremely strong power.

Although she is not one of the twins of the "King of Sky and Wind", with her bloodline and power, she should be like the king himself when she uses the words of the King of Sky and Wind.

But now she encountered a "human" who could forcibly snatch the wind element from her, and he didn't even chant dragon words to resonate with her from beginning to end. This meant that the other party's control over the wind element was definitely stronger than her, the Dragon King.

S grade?
No, far more than that, but it is impossible that they are the twins of the "King of Sky and Wind".

"You are not human." Xia Mi was in an even lower position, being looked down upon, but she raised her plump chin and said in a cold and hard tone, "So, who are you?"

"Or rather, what are you?"

Click.

Qi Xiuyuan sheathed his sword, and the blade made a crisp sound when it hit the scabbard.

"It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know what you are." He just smiled and said, "I want to make a deal with you, Xia Mi."

"Or do you prefer me to call you Jörmungandr?"

The moment he said that name, Xia Mican's golden vertical pupils shrank into lines.

The first thing that came to her mind was not anger or anything else, but... a hint of fear.
