"Don't be afraid, it won't hurt you," Shi Chen reassured him.
"Is that so?" Natsuki Subaru was skeptical, but still believed Tokiomi's words and stood there in fear.
The sacred flame enveloped him and began to evaporate his moisture.
"It's really true that nothing happened." Natsuki Subaru said in surprise as he bathed in the sacred fire.
"Time? How did you do that?" Emilia asked curiously.
"It's a very simple principle. This flame is mine, so of course it listens to me. I can make it burn whatever I want it to burn."
"So that's how it is... But this flame isn't an ordinary flame, is it?"
"So smart." Shichen reached out and patted Emilia's head approvingly.
"Why are you here again... Do you think I'm a child?" Emilia puffed out her cheeks and stared at him.
"Didn't you say before that you didn't hate this?"
"But that doesn't mean you have to treat me like a child."
I was just complimenting you.
"Is that so... alright then." Emilia reluctantly accepted.
"Um... Brother Shi, could you please stop showing off your love in front of me?" Natsuki Subaru couldn't help but say.
He has been restored to a clean state, spotless.
"Showing off their love?!" Emilia exclaimed in surprise, then shyly dodged Shichen's hand.
"You talk too much." Tokishi glared at Subaru Natsuki, annoyed.
"Ahem, Brother Shi, you should also consider how I, a single dog, feel."
"I've already helped you so much, what more do you want me to say?"
"That's true..."
Natsuki Subaru thought for a moment and realized that if it weren't for the timing, he would either have been beaten up by thugs, stabbed, or died right here.
After all, he didn't think he would stand idly by if he encountered Emilia.
A young girl's appearance is enough to make a man lose his rationality.
Moreover, he is a time traveler, so it's impossible for him not to fantasize about a hero rescuing a damsel in distress and winning the heart of the beauty.
Unfortunately, my abilities didn't allow it.
They're both time travelers, so why is there such a huge difference between them?
"Brother Shi, is there any chance for me to become as strong as you?" Natsuki Subaru asked expectantly.
"Want to hear the truth or lies?"
"...Why do I have such a bad feeling?"
"Then tell a lie first?"
"Let's go." Natsuki Subaru's expression was serious; he had mentally prepared himself.
"The lie is... you have a chance."
"Huh—then I'm useless?" Natsuki Subaru slumped his shoulders in disappointment.
"Isn't there still the truth?" Shi Chen smiled.
"Isn't the truth just sarcasm?" Natsuki Subaru said, having no hope.
"No, the truth is the same."
"Huh? Could it be? I can? Really?" Subaru Natsuki's hope rose again.
"Keep it up." Shi Chen patted him on the shoulder to encourage him.
"Okay! I understand! I will definitely work hard and live up to Brother Shi's expectations."
"Hmm... By the way, don't you want to go back?"
"Go back? You mean? Is that okay?"
"No."
"...Back then, you still said that, brother."
"Just ask."
"Whether I want to or not... I do want to, but given what I've been through, I have a feeling it won't be so easy to go back. Maybe I'll have to complete some kind of mission first," Natsuki Subaru replied thoughtfully.
"Sure, it seems you read quite a few novels," Shi Chen said with a smile.
"After all, I'm a shut-in."
"What are your plans next?"
"Me? I don't know either..."
"I think I'm a little late." Suddenly, a male voice came from the doorway.
When they looked over, they saw a young man had appeared at the door at some point.
The first thing that catches the eye is his fiery red hair, which looks like it's burning fiercely, and below it are dazzling blue eyes that are unparalleled except for his bravery.
His features were exceptionally well-proportioned, and standing there with an imposing demeanor, one glance was enough to tell that he was an extraordinary person.
He was slender and tall, dressed in a perfectly tailored black outfit, with a knight's sword hanging at his waist, radiating an unusual aura.
“Reinhard, what brings you here?” Emilia said his name.
"Lady Emilia." Reinhard bowed with a knightly salute and entered, his gaze falling on Toki.
"Reinhard? The Sword Saint?" Shi Chen pretended not to recognize him.
He not only knew this guy, but he also knew him very well; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was the protagonist of this world.
He can do whatever he wants, do whatever he wants, and get whatever he desires. He's truly the world's favorite son.
Fortunately, he is too upright and would never use his abilities for personal gain or personal benefit.
Perhaps it is precisely because he is this kind of person that he is the world's favorite son.
"Hello, if you'd like, you can just call me Reinhardt," Reinhardt said with a slight smile.
"Really? Then you can just call me Shichen."
"The time? I understand."
"Brother Shi, who is he?" Subaru Natsuki leaned closer to Shi and asked in a low voice.
"It won't hurt to get along with the protagonist of this world," Shi Chen explained to him in a low voice.
"what?!"
Natsuki Subaru's eyes widened, and then he excitedly introduced himself to Reinhard: "Hello, my name is Natsuki Subaru! Nice to meet you!"
"Natsuki Subaru? I'll remember that."
"Oh... Oh!" Natsuki Subaru was taken aback by Reinhard's cheerful smile.
"Um, can you tell me what happened here?" Reinhard asked Emilia.
Emilia looked at Shichen, and seeing him nod, she began to explain the situation.
Chapter 482 Reinhard
"So that's how it is... So she's the one who stole Lady Emilia's crest?"
After hearing the situation, Reinhard's gaze fell on Felt, who was with the giant old man.
"It's me... I'm sorry." Felt bowed her head and apologized immediately.
"Um, I've already gotten my badge back, could you please not punish that child?" Emilia pleaded for Felt.
Reinhard was still a guard, so he could indeed capture Felt.
"Since Lady Emilia says so... Toki, thank you for taking care of the Bowel Hunter. If it weren't for you, I might have been really late." Reinhard bowed to Toki in gratitude.
"You don't need to thank me, I'm just doing what I should do." Shi Chen smiled at Emilia.
“Time…” Emilia looked at him with emotion, naturally understanding what he meant.
He did all this for her.
"I understand what needs to be done."
"By the way, there's something I want to tell you."
"what?"
"That Ferut is an orphan, and she's about fifteen years old now..."
"What? Are you serious?" Reinhard stared at Felt with a serious expression.
"You can ask her."
“I understand.” Reinhard walked toward Felt.
"Eh? What... what do you want to do?" Felt instinctively backed away when she saw him approaching, out of fear of his status.
But Reinhard grabbed her wrist, stared intently at her, and murmured, "Such a thing could happen..."
"W-What are you doing? It hurts!"
"Excuse me... I'd like to ask if you're an orphan? How old are you? What's your surname?"
"I'm an orphan, I don't have a surname, my name is Felt... I don't know my birthday, I'm about fifteen years old, could you please let me go!"
“Reinhard?” Emilia walked over.
"Lady Emilia, I am unable to keep my promise. Please take care of her for now."
"Can I ask for the reason? It can't be to punish her for stealing the badge, can it?"
“That’s definitely not it. Although it’s not a minor offense, it’s insignificant compared to the current problem.”
"Is that so?" Emilia looked at Shichen, knowing that it was something he had just said that caused Reinhard to react this way.
